Beautiful Model For the

■White satin forms the trailed, square

MARKET BASKETS.
Wartime Measures About Deliveries of
Groceries.
If you see anybody generous with
food wrappings «ml string these days
you may be sure ft is not the owner of
a food business. Many employees, feel
ing no responsibility, continue to be as
lavish as of old with bag and twine,
but a small dealt'' almost wept when a
customer offered to take home n grape
fruit in her basket without a wrapping.
"What! You would save nie a cent!"
he exclaimed.
Some grocers will ask you if they
shall deliver your purchases, which
may number half a dozen or more, but
they will not let you have a big bag to
take them home in. Vou ask, "The big
bag costs less than delivery, does it
not?" "Yes. but we have to pay for
the delivery anyway." Not willing to
drop the subject, you say, "You ought
to charge everybody 5 cents for each
delivery." The grocer replies: "But
that would not pay for what it costs
us. Our wagons cost us $150 a month." |
Of course the groccr adds this cost to
our foods, aud he allows a safe mar
gin. Those who are willing to carrj
goods home pay equally with those who
do not Customers could work a change
In one week if they all chose the mar
ket basket way.
The "cash and carry" stores have
lately displayed conspicuously a basket
with a price mark, 5 cents. Stout and
handsome baskets, which will last
years, may be bought for less than $1.
How much more sensible it Is to use
these than to buy paper at present
prices, which Is used but once! We
cannot expect market development to
be so one sided a thing as most of U9
have allowed it to be to the great ex
pense of our pockotbooks. We have
gone to silly lengths in the free de
Jivery system.
Don'ts For Mothers.
A wrifer lii a recent issue of Mother's
Magazine gives some very pertinent
advice to mothers in regard to their at
titude with their children. She says In
part: "Don't think that the moment
you are alone with your boy or girl
you must find fault or endeavor to im
prove the occasion by a little moraliz
ing, no matter in how loving a spirit.
Tills is a hard don't, for no one is so
anxious to help a child toward perfec
tion as is the parent, yet H. surely leads
to an avoidance of the mouisnts alone
together, which should be \Lnes of
happy confidences.
"Neither should a parent correct the
child before others. Never mind if a
well meaning relative does say, 'My
dear, I am surprised that you do not
show more force of characteri your
children are suffering from a lack of
discipline.' Tass the matter over till
you and the small offender can have it
out alone. If the circumstances are
such that it cannot be passed over take
him out of the room."
Saving Gas.
A gas saver and comfort in cooking
on gas stoves is to place a sheet of
zinc or sheet iron on top of the stove
the size of the stove top. One lighted
burner will heat the entire sheet and
serve to cook as many articles of food
as there is room for vessels. It also la
cleanly, protecting the stove from tho
results of boiling over, and the sheet
is much easier cleaned than the sev
eral burners are when not so protected.
Specially Wrapped Book*.
A: a certain woman managed book
shop in New York a feature is made
of specially wrapped books for gifts.
The books, mostly choice editions of
very modern literature, are inclosed In
charmingly decorated envelopes or fan
cy Japanese papers. The inner wrap
per, for example, may be of silver pa
per, with bandings of a dull blue, dull
finished weave, and catching these to
gether a lialf moon in orange. Anoth
er unusual wrapping is flecked orange
paper, banded with black, and with
cross strappings of gold and a piping
of bright green. Greenish gold papers
are used for other boobs. There ore
innumerable colorful combinations to
be achieved.—New York World.

PLANTING SPINACH.
A Favorite Crop Grown For Greene,
and All Gardeners Should Plant It.
Spinach is perhaps the most favorite
crop grown for greens, and every home
gardener should plant it. Around Nor
folk, Va., and to the south of it large
areas are cut at any time through the
winter when the fields are not frozen
or covered with snow. North of the
latitude of Norfolk spinach can bo
planted In the autumn and carried
over the winter by mulching with
straw or leaves. The seed should be
sown in drills one foot apart at tho
rate of one ounce to 100 feet of row, or
ten to twelve pounds per acre. A rich
loatu is required for success.
There is perhaps no other garden
crop which gives as much satisfaction
as spinach. Ordinarily it occupies the
land during the autumn and winter
and does not interfere therefore with
the production of summer vegetables.
Throe or four ounces of seed planted
in the autumn after the summer crop
lias been harvested will produce an
abundance of greens for the average
family during the lute autumn and
early spring. In gathering spinach
the entire plant is removed instead of
merely cutting off the leaves. By se
lecting the larger plants first tho
smaller or later ones are given room
to develop. This method does away
with the necessity of thinning.
