Economy Hints A -penny saved is a penny earned. Benjamin Franklin. V 'ETtY few families of the pres ent day. even at the simple home dinner, have the roasts and meats brought on the ta ble to be carved. It is bo much sim pler for every one concerned to have the maid carve it in the kitchen and pass it to each diner. This simpler way, then, makes It pos sible to have a much smaller table and also does away with the necessity of placing any carving implements and serving forks or spoons on the table during the process of setting It The arrangement of the silver at each place has gradually changed during the past five years, and., while many of the best families adhere to the old way, still the new method is becoming almost universal. The knives and spoons are always placed together at the right of the plate and the forks at the left. For merly these were arranged according to the order in which they were used, beginning at the outside, with the knife or fork for the first course, and work- ing in to the plate. But this makes j C1 . a ,lo.. QOT,.QrriQT1 .ha. ia such an ugly arrangement that it is only retained by a few families. Far prettier is the present day ar rangement which is made for its ap pearance rather than for convenience. Nowadays in setting the silver' we place the soup spoon next to the plate, the largest knife right next to that, then the next sized knife beyond that down to the smallest knife and spoon to be "used. The coffee spoon is not put on the table, but is brought into the drawing room with the coffee serv ice later. A plate is always put at each place on the table between the silver, being removed when the soup is brought in The glasses are above the knives, and if there are to be wines or liquors the glasses for these drinks are arranged in order after the water tumbler. To the left-above the fork, the butter dish or bread and butter plate Is placed Directly above each plate, in between the glasses and the butter plate, should be put individual salt and pepper shak ers. Each person should have the use IMPORTANT MATTERS UP CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE. house bill 170 is very apparently doomed. The house in a debate upon the merits of a eugenics law appeared to be opposed to such a measure. A hearing on the bill making medical inspection of schools compulsory was held and a spirited debate resulted. Alexander Dunnett led the opposition and many spoke for the measure. Congressman. F. L Gieene of the first district was in Montpelier Friday and at the request of the legislature addressed the house. The house at a session Saturday transacted considerable business. It passed the budget bill, an important measure, also a bill allowing itown listers to call upon experts to appraise certain properties, the expense to be borne by the town asking the aid of such assistants. The house also passed a bill to erect a marker on the grave of Perry, the only Vermonter killed at Vera Cruz. The hearing on the educational bill Friday evening lasted until nearly midnight, and resulted in another heating for Thursday evening being set, at which time members of the special commission preparing the bill will be heard. A bill has been passed by the Senate calling for the reading of the Bible in the schools daily. A syllabus Bible is provided for, omitting all passages over which denominational controver sies arise.

Flowers make the centerpiece, and the four or two candlesticks are on ei- ther side of the center.

How to Arrange Lights Comfortably For ths Eyes. In arranging a light the position of the worker is the first thing to be con sidered. The light must not come from the front of the work, as we see many people when sewing sitting facing the table which holds the light Rather sit with your back to the light and with the light falling over your shoulders on the work. One should be sure to see that the light from under a globe does not strike the corner of the eye. This will in time almost blind a person. The eye becomes inflamed and the sight dull in a very short time. This can be avoid ed by raising or lowering the light or j the worker changing from a low to a higher chair. One may say the higher j chair is not so comfortable. That is I true, but the comfort we receive is not always the best for us, and the eye sight should be the first consideration. Another thing which should be im portant is the selection of the work we pick up in the evening. Those who are employed all day and have been work ing on colors should select white ma terials to sew on in the evening, at least for a time, in order to change the strain of the eyes. If one has been working on white all day select sewing with that idea in view and buy the pretty colors. If the hands are used with any materials' which are rough that persou should not select embroid ery silks, but rather use the mercer ized floss, since the silk will get rough unless the hands are perfectly smooth If one is working on clothes and has to sew on dark materials wearing a white apron will reflect the light and make needle threading easier. If one Is working on the machine and has to thread the needle slip a piece of white material or paper under the foot and much time will be saved. It vvill also add to the light if white cloth or paper Is spread on the table. which holds the work. .If white materials are used a dark cloth thrown over the lap or on the table will again relieve the eye strain. Many times the eyes become tired, especially in doing very fine work. Rest the eyes by leaning the bead against the back of the chair and spreading a cloth wet with cold water MERROVY DOWN.
