Sure Success.

A banker was talking about the success of a merchant. “At a banquet,” he said. "I sat opposite the man and during the speechmaking I saw him drop a quarter on the floor. “Of course he didn’t interrupt the proceedings at the 'time, but after the speech-making was over he got down on his hands and knees to look for the lost quarter.” “Did he find it?” another banker asked. “Find it?” said the first banker. “Why, man, he found a half-dollar.”

HELPFUL SUGGESTIONS ON WISE SPENDING TO THOSE WOMEN ANXIOUS TO ECONOMIZE

When Selecting a Wash Waist Buy One Which Will Launder Well.

(Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) In a shopping trip a woman found two blouses with the same price at- u tached to each. One was trimmed with quantities of fairly good-looking but rather cheap, conspicuous lace, and the other was plainly made, trimmed only by the hemstitching on the collar and cuffs. Unable to decide between them she bought them both, and was taught a lesson worth any woman’s time to learn. •' —r— Coarse and Cheap. She wore the lace-trimmed one to a picnic one day and had the complacent feeling which comes to a woman* when she Is‘wearing clothes which she thinks are becoming. She was aware that it was conspicuous, but she was sure that all the women were envious of her appearance. However, when it was washed the first time the lace tore in several places and it took half of a valuable hour to repair it. The material had lost its new stiffness and appeared coarse and cheap. When wore it the next time she was not happy over its effect, for it looked cheap and in. poor taste, even to her.

FOODS BEST ADAPTED TO FIRELESS COOKER

Intelligence Necessary to Obtain Best Results. Pies Cannot Be Baked Successfully in Ordinary Device—Cereals, Soups, Meats, Steamed Breads and Puddings Favored. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) Obviously- -the—fireless—cooker- must be used with intelligence to obtain the best results. It is best suited to those foods which require boiling, steaming, or long, slow cooking in a moist heat. Foods cannot be fried in it, pigs can-. “not be baked successfully in the ordi-i nary fireless cooker, nor can any cookinrrhp dpne which Tenn Ires fl high dry heat for browning. Meats, however, may be partially roasted in the oven and finished in the cooker, or may be begun in the cooker and finished in the oven with much the same results as if they were roasted in the oven entirely. The classes of food best adapted to the cooker are cdreals, soups, meats, vegetables, r dried fruits, steamed breads and puddings. When different foods are cooked together in the fireless cooker they must be such as require the same amount of cooking, since the cooker cannot be opened to take out food without ■allowing••-•the escape a few pf heat and making it necessary To reheat the contents. It would not do to put foods which need about one and one-half hours to cook Into the cooker with a piece of meat which would stay several hours. The size of the container used in cooking with the fireless cooker should be governed according to the amount of food to be cooked. Small quantities of food cannot be cooked satisfactorily in a large kettle in the fireless cooker. If a large kettle must be used, better results will be obtained if some other material which holds heat fairly well is used to fill up the empty space. This may be accomplished in several ways. One is to put the small quantity of food to be cooked into a smaller, tightly closed kettle, fill the large kettle with boiling water and put the small kettle Into It, standing it on an inverted bowl or some other suitable support. This boiling water will take up and hold the heat better than air would. Several smaller dishes (if tightly covered-) may be placed In the kettle surrounded by boiling water. Baking powder or other tins often are found useful for this purpose. Another way is to place one food In a basin which just fits into the top of a large kettle and to let some other material, some vegetable perhaps, cook in the water in the bottom of the kettle.

In contrast to the lacy one the simple blouse gave her no cause for self-admiration. When she wore it the first time she admitted to herself that although it didn’t feel new it was comfortable to know her friends were looking at her and not at showy lace. After its first trip to the washtub it was a welcome contrast to the other, for it was even prettier than before. The material was soft and fine and the seams required no repairing. Long after the - tawdry, much-trimmed blouse had been relegated to the old clothes bag the other was doing-serv-ice. —* Tasteful Trimming. For what did she spend her mopey ? In the first one, much' trimming, a great amount’ of only fair workmanship and poor material. ' In the second she paid for a little but tasteful trimming, good workmanship and good material. For what do you pay when you buy clothing? The thrift leaflets issued by the United States department of agriculture and the United States treasury department give helpful suggestions on wise spending to those who are anxious to economize. , / „

more flat, shallow kettles placed one on top of the other so as to fill the cooker enable one to cook small amounts of different foods successfully. Such kettles, made especially for use in tireless cookers, may be purchased. -

MAKE MONDAY MEAN MUTTON

Use of Sheep Meat One Day a Week Should Appear Especially to Small Families. ' (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) The average housewife would be surprised to learn that in a year she buys for every person in the household only about five pounds of mutton or lamb, as compared with about 71 pounds of pork and 67 pounds of beef. If all American families” used sheep meat one dav a week in the average daily amount of other meats, that would mean more than 20 pounds of mutton and lauib annually ter capita, or four times its present consumption. More than that, the head of the family, who pays the bills, would no doubt encourage purchasing mutton - and lamb in larger cuts, Instead of merely a few chops at a time, if he were made to realize the greater economy and the greater encouragement to production. In that connection a shoulder of mutton or a leg of lamb, being smaller than the average beef joint, should appeal especially to small families.

Cheering Note In City Hubbub.

It was a scorching hot day. Three of the characters that grow familiar to the frequenters of the thoroughfare from .Broadway to Park Row took part is a little bit of drama that,was watched from a nearby bench. The lame old man who sells shoestrings sat wearily on the stairs leading to the closed canteen opposite the postofflee. His eyes drooped with sleep, but opened suddenly at a word from the ,woman who sits near by with a basket of pretzete,«the piece de resistance of many a midday meal in that vicinity. She held out a tall glass of orangeade supplied, doubtless, by the proprietor of the flourishing stand hard by. wher6 brie may buy post cant souvenlrs of New York, or sweets and cool drinks to eke out the pretzel lunch. He drank It gratefully while the kindly if draggled Hebe chatted about the weather. It was a cheering note in the rush of the city's crowded, careless thoroughfare.—New York Times.
