Simplify House Cleaning

THE announcement that house clean

upheaval that results in discomfort to
the entire household will be hailed with
JOY. both by home managers end mem
bers of their families, especially hus-
bands.
The day has passed when it was
necessary to press into service every
member of the household when the great
furry of bTooms, busters. mops, clean
ing fluids and furniture polish de-
scended on the otherwise peaceful fam
lily scene. Mother tied up her hair in a
dust cap, father rolled up his sleeves
and took on a crouch, the children sour
ried for cover as best they could and
the great Spring cleaning began. Those
primitive days, characterized by quaint,
unscientific methods. are past and
general chorus of Thanksgiving rises at
their passing.
preventive" house cleaning is the
modern method. Don't let the house
get dirty and you won't have to clean 1t
up, is the principle on which the new
process is based. Keep clean all the
year around, and the old-fashioned cpl
demic of Spring cleaning will attack
you only lightly and leave you without q
scar on your hands or your disposition.
Adequate cleaning equipment Is the
prerequisite for this blissful state OF
existence in which Spring cleaning is
nothing more than just very little ex-
ira effort here or there in the house.
The vacuum cleaner comes first to
mind in this discussion of modern clean

Noodle knowledge.

In France you eat noullies, in Ger
many nudoln and in the U. S. A., Just
plain noodles. But they are much the
same wherever you eat them.
Here is an English recipe for So
called "nouilles su gratin." We found
it in an old English cookery book, tried
and found the dish delicious. Here it
is:
Three ounces nouilles, salt boiling
water, one ounce of butter, half a pint
Of hot milk, one tablespoon of grated
cheese, breadcrumbs. Boil the nouilles
in sailed water for fifteen minutes and
drain. Melt one ounce of butter and
stir in as much flour as 1t will moisten
When it has cooked gently for five
minutes add a half pint of hot milk,
salt pepper, and a grain or two of
cayenne. Stir and boil gently till
smooth, then withdraw from the fire
and add tablespoon Of grated cheese.
Place the nouilles in a buttered pie
dish in layers with the sauce spread
between. Cover the final layer of
nouilles lightly with mixed breadcrumbs
and cheese, add several small pieces
of butter and bake in a fairly hot oven
till nicely Drowned.

wcrd in deyices for tightening the labor
Of the housekeeper. 1t sucks up the
dust and dirt rather than just scatter

place. The brushes take up lint and
thread and help raise the dirt In the
pile Of the rug.
Equipment which GENES with most
vacuum cleaners includes brushes for
cleaning upholstered furniture and de-
vice for taking the dust and dir. OF
draperies and curtains and ether fur
nishings. Removing the dirt at frequent
and regular intervals frcm the furnish

fresher, but prolongs their life.
Waxed floors should never be cleansed
with an oil brush. For polishing the
waxed surfaces keep on hand a weighted
brush with short bristleS These are

Battery Drives a Train.

In the past it has ben impossible for
trains to carry electricity stored in bat
teFies owing to their enormous weight;
but new kind Of accumulation has been
developed by an Irish scientist, DR..
Jarnes Drum. To electrify a railway
by ordinary methods is expensive. With
the new accumulation no alteration is re-
CURED except that a smokeless and al
most noiseless locomotive replaces the
steam engine In tests SO far made in
Ireland full power from, the batteries
has not been used. Further full-power
tests are to be made, and it is expected
that a train with a 60-ton load will
reach a speed of over so miles an hour
The batteries can provide power for so
miles of running, and when the train
stops at station they can be recharged
in 10 minutes.
It is proposed, though, TO enable
trains to recharge their batteries on
the move by taking up electricity Just
as steam locomotives now take up
water AT certain sections of the line
live rails several miles in length will
be provided, and by means of these
the batteries will be recharged as re-
quired without the necessity of stop,

The Yellow Wings were called silly
and foolish and absurd and crazy by
their neighborS in the Old Orchard, and
didn't mind it i'll the least. 1t was all
because of their funny antics in their
lovemaking They didn't mind being
laughed at and made fun of because
they didn't even know that there were
any neighbOrS around. They had eyes
only for each other. They Just didn't
see other folks. That is because they
were very much in love with each other.
But life is for something besides love-
making, and one day, even before
they started out to look for breakfast,
Mrs. yellow Wing declared that it was
time to put an end to all nonsense.
Right after breakfast we'll go house
hunting" declared she. Il love to have
you pay me attention, my dear, but we
have work to do. 1t is high time we
were starting a. home. We ought to be
housekeeping this very minute"
II guess you are right" replied yell
low Wing rather regretfully. "Of course
you are right; you are always right" he
fastened to add. where shall we look?
There are couple of houses We have
used before, one of which might do
again. In that case we can get to
housekeeping right away"
Mrs Yellow Wing shook her head. II
want new house. said she. "Of
course. We will look It those old houses,
but I'm sure they will not do. 1 want
nice, bright, new walls around me and
bed of nice new chips. I want the
best house we've ever had"
"Of course you shall have it if you
want it, declared yellow Wing gall
lantly, and made her deep bow Mrs
Yellow Wing didn't return it as she
would have the day before. She merely
spread her wings and started out to
look for breakfast. OF course, Yellow
Wing followed and for while they
were very busy catching ants.
Breakfast over, Mrs. Yellow Wing led
the way straight to their last years
home. 1t was in a hollow in the trunk
of an apple tree in the Old Orchard.
CuTiOusly enough they hadn't looked
at 1t since their return from the Sunny
South
1T looks good to me-" said Yellow
Wing as he alighted beside her just be-
low the doorway. L always was fond
of this home"
Mrs. Yellow Wing thrust her head in
the doorway, to be greeted by a hiss
that sent her tumbling backward SO
that it was only by the quick use of
her wings that she saved herself from
fall to the ground. She flew to the
next tree, Yellow Wing following and
anxiously asking what was the matter.
Matter enough!' exclaimed Mrs.
Yellow Wing Indignantly. Mrs. Spooky
the Screetch Owl is in there, and I do
believe she is sitting on eggs. The
nerve Of her to take our housed"
Well, my dear you know it was
empty and any one has a right to an
empty house" said Yellow Wing mildly.

Wedding Cost.

We understand from the outset that
a wedding will be restricted to a man
ner within ones means, but there are
still two extremes. We can, and often
do, go to one Of these extremes. The
first is that of spending all we can
afford without reason. The second is
that Of spending as little as possible
with the same lack of reason. Nat
urally folks like to make weddings oc-
caslons OF undying memory, but the
mere expenditure OF money will not
do all.
A wedding at home, to which ones
nearest relatives and most intimate
friends are invited, may be more i'm
pressive than one arranged at a local
hotel or hall gaily festooned with flow
ers. Often the meaning of the cere-
mony is dimmed by the brilliance and
show Of the setting. 1t is interesting to
note that in the So-called society we'd
ding few ask about the ceremony. The
clothes flowers and jewels usually re-
ceive most attention and discussion.
If one can afford to give ones daugh-
ter a wedding ceremony and celebration
where all of ones friends can be invited,
1t may be done economically. BY omit
ting expensive dinners and lavish deco
raticns large weddings may be mini
mized In cost. Unless one has q social
position to maintain, it Is not necessary
to rent rooms at an exclusive caterers
or hotel.
Sooner or later one must decide def
nitely on "hew much one should spend"
The most satiSfa Glory manner of reach
ing a conclusion is to view all of the
expenses as a whole. There is the ex-
pense of the trousseau. of furnishing the
home and many incidental expenditures
with which every mother is familiar
The total of these costs should be care
fully tabulated.
1t is no difficult matter to decide Just
how much of ones personal or family
capital can be justifiably spent BY
Ccducting the essential amounts from
