A Valuable Suggestion.

The average housekeeper finds that her memory is shortest when it comes to the dally planning of meals. Her frequent cry that she cannot think of anything to order never seems to be suggestive to her of Its own remedy. She has ordered and does order every day the round of family living, and if when the process Is over she would arrange in a little book kept for the purpose the chief dishes that have appeared on the table during the twentyfour hours, she will find that she quickly accumulates a valuable memorandum. Instead of cataloguing these dishes under Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday, it is simpler to classify them breakfast, luncheon, dinner; substantial and desserts. A housekeeper who has practiced this plan since the beginning of the year has over and over again been amazed to discover how the useful simple dishes escape her memory without it.—-New York Evening Post.
