If you were a sunbeam so warm and bo bright, I know you would flood all the world with - your light; " ' But first you "would go to the spots that are drear, And give tp the ' lonely the best of your cheer; , ' . And how can I tell you just what you would do? . . ' ' . I know it, I feel it, because you are you If you were a bird .with a. sweet, thrilling i voice, - ' , Whose music would make every hearer rejoice; I know iyou would ing for the poor and. the sad, ". And . those who most need you to make their hearts' glad; And how do I know this Is what you would do? Why how could you help it? Because you are you. If you were a rose all so blushlngly red, You'd lovingly watch by some sufferer's bed, And there till you faded and died would remain, ' Thus giving your life to alleviate pain; . I know even this.you would cheerfully do, ' And Km he when God oalled you, because you are you. WINIFRED DAVISON. MY EXPERIENCE The Letter That Won First Prize in the Contest "Is It Better to Cook and Buy Much or Little?" A GREAT deal may be gained in va rious ways by cooking more food than can be used at one time. This is true of most foods and most methods of cooking. As to the actual saving en to attend to the dinner, and if I can prepare, or partly prepare, supper at-the"same"timerhave"saved'both time and strength and can enjoy the afternoon knowing that I am prepared." The saving in tuel amounts to a good deal in the course of a year, even here where wood is plentiful. It all has to be cut and hauled up, and if. I save fuel, I save time and effort for my men folks. Some people build up a-little fire several times a day to do this or that .Plari your work and get all the good you can out of every fire you build. . ' . . . Plan your meals and bring the veg etables for the day all in one trip "from the garden. The lettuce , and radishes or- mustard or spinach should be washed at once and covered with a wet cloth till you wish to cook or serve them. In buying supplies it is always sen-. sible and economical to buy m quan tity sufficient to last for some weeks or months as the case may be.. Matches by the carton are a little cheaper and you' have matches for a year. The idea that supplies are wasted just because there is a quanti ty on hand is absurd in the eyes of a good manager. No one uses two matches to light one lamp just be-; cause there are several boxes of matches on the top shelf, and any one who uses more soap than is neces sary would do so whether there were one bar in the house or a hundred. In buying package goods there is econo my in getting the large package if the size of the family warrants it. Pos- turn, soda, extracts, spices, etc., are cheaper in the larger package. Roll ed oats, rice and some other uncook ed cereals are much cheaper if bought nf the fond itself. T dn tint find that it makes any difference whether I cook in bulk-ten, twenty, or thirty pounds, much or little., as I never waste anv according to the size of the family, "I i J "in 1; Eels.

A few examples: If I am to have potatoes for dinner and know that we shall eat about eight potatoes, I get about fifteen or sixteen and have them boiled for dinner, cream part of the remainder for supper or fry them for breakfast. There is such a vari ety of ways in which all vegetables may be used that it is nearly always economy to plan for at least three meals when preparing one. There is only the one trip to the garden or the cellar, only the one pan to wash, and it is so good to know that there is at least one something that may be pre pared in a few minutes for the next meal. i 1 MUM Get an EL FLO CANNES for borne, community and factory use.
