Keeping House With the Hoopers [The Hooper*, *o average American family of five, living In a suburban town, on a limited income, will tell the reader* of the Daily Time* how the many present-day problems of the borne are solved by working on the budget that Mrs. Hooper has evolved and found practical. Follow them dally Id an interesting review of their home life and learn to meet the condition# of the high cost of living with them.] •'Did yon pay the water and gas and teiephone and electric bills yet. Daddy?" asked Helen as her father was leaving for the ofdce. “Goodness, no, I forgot them on Saturday,” replied Mr. Hooper. “I was so busy looking for that dress for you that what you said about those bills went completely out of my head. But as long as they are paid before the fifteenth of the month It is all right, I guess." “I suppose so,” replied Helen, “but Mother always pays them before she makes ont her monthly account. And when she asked for the receipts last week we didn't have them. So she will be sure to want them for her accounts this week, or her budget will get all mixed up again.” “I’ll surely remember to do It this afternoon when I get back from the city,” promised Mr. Hooper. “The offices here don’t close for half an hour after my train gets In, so I will have plenty of time to attend to it.” With both of the children bach In school, and with the extra work of preparing meals for Mrs. Hooper and the Bride to be sent to the sick-room on trays, Mrs. Hooper’s mother wa3 beginning to find the housework a heavy drag. So Mr. Hooper had Insisted be- , fore leaving for the office that she try to get someone to help her with the washing. Although Betty was getting better each day, the official quarantine had not yet been raised, and Mrs, Hooper’s mother found on telephoning to i vrrious women In the town who went to work by the day that none or them cared to come to a house where there was a contagious disease because of the possible danger to their own children. But finally she had pursuaded one of them that there could be no possible harm in her coming Into the laundry, which was so far removed from the rest of the house, and in doing the washing J for the members of the family who for i weeks had not come in contact with any- j one vho had been near the sick room. i Wh;n this laundress arrived, Mrs. i

Men You May Marry By ETHEL R. PEYSER Has a man like this proposed to you? Symptoms: He is rather old maidish —the kind that rules and has ruled his sister. Cehsures her beaux, her clothes, her goings and her comings. He tells you this to show his understanding of “Wimmin.” "Oh, no—he never takes her out.” He’s too tired at night. Gives her a hat, instead. Rarely brings his men friends home — cause his sister is too high brow! IN FACT, lie is the king of brow beaters.

Hooper's mother went down stairs wltb her to explain the working of the electric washing machine, and to show her Just how the clothes had to be sorted and separated before they were loaded into it. Glancing at the trim machine that stood in one corner of the ’aundry ready to take on the burden of the heavy wash, the woman said sarcastically, “What do you call that?” “it's an electric washing machine,” explained Mrs. Hooper’s mother; “and after you get the clothes packed J"turn on the current, it just does the washing itself. Have you ever used one?” “No, and what's more I don’t intend to,” snapped the woman. “I don’t believe in those new fangled washers. Nothing ever gets clothes as clean as washing them by

Instead of having the work finished by lunch time, the washing went on all day, and at 5 o’clock the woman was taking in the white clothei from the line and the colored ones, which had been hung out too late in the damp October afternoon to get at all dry, hung in limp, wet rows on the clothes line after the sun went down. “We'il have to leave those colored things out all night, the woman said philosophically. “It won’t hurt them a 1 bit and they'll dry in the morning before I’ve finished ironing the white ones.” “But don’t you think that we ought to take them in off the line and then hang them out again in the morning?” asked Mrs. Hooper’s mother. “Oh, not at all," replied the woman. “What's the use of making all that extra work.” “Well,” answered Mrs. Hooper's mother, impatiently, “if you’d used the electric washing machine all the clothes would have been dry hours ago, because they Would have been out on the line In time to get the benefit of the early sunshine, j The woman said nothing as she put on her hat and prepared to leave, but Mrs. I Hooper’s mother felt certain that when she appeared in the morning to da the Ironing she would insist on using the old-fashioned irons instead of the electric one that hnd replaced them for so long in the Hooper laundry.

So they walked and walked, and at last they came to a funny little house near a sparkling brook. So they stopped and looked in. And here Is a New Mother Goose Land verse which a little bird began to sing from a tree nearby: Six little mice sat down to eat, Pussy passed by on tiptoe feet; “What are yom doing, my little mice? ’ j “Eating Johnny’s cake and It tastes real nice!” “Shall I show you, my dears, how to pull out the plums?” “No, thank you, Miss Pussy, you might bite off our thumbs!” This made Goosey Goosey Gander laugh, but it didn't make Puss Junior even smile. He was now so hungry he didn’t know what to do. So he tapped on the window, and when the little mice saw him, would you believe it, they opened the door and said, “Come In, for we know who you are!” So in walked our small traveler and Goosey Gander followed, and pretty soon the six little mice had ail sorts of nice, things for them to eat, and after that Puss Junior fold them a story about the three blind mice whose tails were cut off'by the farmer’s wife. "And it was all on account of their eating her nut rake." added Puss, “and she told me If they would promise not to

Serious displacements or radical changes have not yet taken place. A tiny part in a fine clock may become loose and cause the clock to gain or lose. If not attended to in time, the part may fall from its place and cause serious trouble.

' And as the Gander was wing-weary they alighted near the cave and spoke to the bear, who was sitting outside in the sun. “Welcome to my mountain,” he said "My cousin has told me about a cat win wore boots, who once helped him regain his human form.
