Two or three times a week boll or steam a large kettle of potatoes In the original packages, set taera aside to cool, and verily, my daughters, they will seem a treasure house of gold and silver. After you have been kept busy all day, with the multitudinous duties which fall to the let of every housekeeper, it will seem as a great weight lirted from your tired thoulders to tiave no potatoes to wash and pare at dinner time.

When you are preparing to cook either a pot or an oven roast, purchase a large one, for It will consume ery little extra fuel in the cooking, and what is left from the Irst meal can be worked over into numerous dishes fully as tasty as the first one. Do you always plan an oven meal when you are roasting meat? Fotatoes may be browned with the meat, escalloped corn or tomatoes, macaroni or spaghetti with cheese be baked for vegetable, pudding or pie for dessert all for one as tl former's sister, Ii.

AT the Sawyer Opera House Thur. Feb. 16 Tendency Now Is Toward Decrease of Number of Dishes and Increase In Speed of Service. When George Tlcknor was in Erg-land more than seventy years ago he was often amazed at the length of time spent oveT the two formal meals of the day, breakfast and dinner. It was nothing unusual Tor the former to last for a couple of hours, while a dlnnrr mght start at 8:30 and be protracted till midnight! And the courses were as many and substantial 3 the meals were lergthy.

But times have With regard to dinners recent yearB have witnessed, cays a qualified observer, considerable as to the number of dishes. Formerly a constant subject of complaint with regard to dinner parties was that there were too many courses, but if things go on as they have been going of late, guests will roon begin to complain that they have had no dinner at all, the fashionable modern tendency being to" give a very light entree in place of the joint, which now seldom figures on a menu. This and another entree, soup, a little fish, and a very light sweet seem to be considered sufficient dinner for even a large party; and those guests wbo do not care for the entrees get practically no dinner at all. In addition to this, everything Is served at such lightning speed that it is as much as one can do to swallow the few ntouthfuls called dinner before one's plate is snatched DR.W.
