I BUY GOOD MATERIALS AND TO USE THEIR INGENUITY

BUY GOOD MATERIALS.
Buy a good suit It will surely
pay. To be sure, you may not have
I the latest wrinkle, for yon must buy
conservative styles, but no sensible
woman who must roall'' econonme
expects to be able to wear the latest
thing out.
I Know a most economical woman
who makes almost all her cloth
dresses from suit- (iood cloth can
be washed, and there are many ways
of combining materials and trimming
Her elder daughter Is in college and
her favorite school dress is a braid -ed
navy blue serge that her mother
made from a suit the girl had worn
three winters a tailored fuiir made
S from good serge that shows not the
least sign of wearing out, and from
which the shine" washed off com-
Ipletely.
When her girls were small she
made their winter school dresses
from their father's old suits They
never had a shoddy thing in their
l lives. Insensibly, they have been
educated Into a useful knowledge of
material, too.
She never took a sewing lesson in
her life. She was armed onlj with
good sense, keen observation, and
Sntrong determination to make everj
penny rount Pretty shirtwaists
worn about the neck and sleeves,
m e corset covers White dresses
are often converted into slips. The
wide borders of her best tableclothes
make scarfs for her sideboard or
dresser, when the cloth must be dis
carded Her dish towels are all flour
h sacks, neatly hemmed She gays it Is
well worth while to darn with heavy
cotton the Turkish towels that show
6tT thin spots hen a sheet crows thin
1 in the center u is torn open, the
selvage edges sewed together, and
the edges hemmed.
Her saving extends to every de
' partment of her household but there
is such general neglect of these leaks
In the sewing room that this seems
i to me timely A lot. of work? Tt
Surely is No woman who did not
need to make the pennies count would

HOUSEHOLD HINTS,

tag some antidotes and suggestions
Witlj a hope that the- may prove- a
benefit to some reader bl the Worn I

phabetical order Some I have cop
led and some were clipped from old
magazines, and I have a page in my
soapbook for ench letter of the al

I ment ion a few.
"Necessity demanded that I Stud)
these things, for at one lime, while
I living Blx milt-s from a good doctor,
three or four accidents occurred to
the children which caused many sleep
less nights. One child swallowed a
large peach pit. which caused three
convulsions; another had her hand
mashed by the window sash falling
upon It the third accident vvas terri
ble; in fact, it has been stated by au
: thority to be a miracle, ns It vvas the
most serious burn on record to have
been healed The girl who did iny
washing left a pan of boiling water
on the floor while she ran to the well
for more water Imagine my horror
when I flew to the room on hearing
the child s Bcreams and found the lit
tle one sitting in the pan of water
"It is a good thing to be near a
doctor, but there are eases where It is
serious to wait for one. For instance,
suppose one should splash a few
drops of lye or a small piece of quirk
lime in the eye, or, worse still, sup
pose a child gets lye in its mouth.
It would almost be beyond medical
aid in ten minutes. If you only knew
that vinegar is the remedy for these
t binge it is worth more than any
amount of money
"Enough for the defense, now to
antidotes and common sense
"A Always read the label when
irivinff medicine, no matter what the
circumstance. You may give the
wrong medicine Life Is too short to
lake such risks,
"A- Appendicitis If you think you
are afflicted with this disease drink
freely of olive oil.
"B Bites If from a dog pour tur
pentine over the spot; it mav pr
vent hydrophobia.
"Burns Keep the surface of thS
burn cover as the air drives the burn
deeper Linseed oil is good, or lin
seed and lime water, if only a slight
burn. Olive oil is good to draw out
the fire. A better one for a bad burn
is 4 ounces of glycerine to one ten
spoonful of carbolic acid Saturate a
muslin cloth and lay over the burn,
and repeat often. In the Instance of
our Utile girl, the whole back was
burned and the left side For this
burn the doctor used applications of
soda and cream. A paste was made
consisting of sulphide of zinc and vas
eline or lard, with paregoric added
This mixture was spread on rubber or
gutta pcrcha paper and placed over
the burn This often brings instant
relief
"C Croup, cramps, coughs, convul
sion's. Instantly place the child in a
warm bath of water, adding hotter
and hotter water as it cools. As soon
as the child becomes natural again,
wrap warmly and place in bed.
"D Drowning. A little child of 3
years was taken from tho water, dead
to all appearances, and restored after

Remove all obstructions to breathing,
