ON BUSINESS BASIS
WISDOM OF KEEPING KITCHEN
ACCOUNT BOOK.
WRITER OF REAL TALENT.
With Absolute Knowledge of Running
Expenses Economy Is Made Easy
Hired Help Always Prone
to Extravagance.
The head of the household some
times concludes that it costs too much
to live, and when he makes this deci
sion nothing commands his respect
like an account book wherein bal
ances are made without accommodating
"sundries." In fact going to market
and keeping household accounts are
the housekeeper's weapons of self-defense
against the charge of extrava
gance, writes Alice K. Whitaker.
It is comparatively easy to account
for rent, fueL light and wages, and
even the larger bills for clothing can
be fairly well itemised from receipted
bills and memory. Therefore the
most common point of attack is the
food supply. The mistress 01 tne
household may insist that nothing is
wasted and that the family would not
be satisfied with cheaper food, but un
less she can keep an account book she
has nothing to prove that she could
not have spent less for food material.
A housekeeper frequently says to
herself: "It seems to me that we are
buying butter every other day." or
I"m sure that we are using a dozen'
eggs a day. 11 sne nas an account
book she can prove the truth of her
surmises or otherwise. One house
keeper annoyed at the recurring calls
for coffee and butter ior her family
ot three sat down to her account book
and In five minutes found that six
pounds of coffee and ten pounds of
butter had been used during the pre
vious month. She immediately cut
two pounds from the future coffee sup
ply and cautioned against extrava
gance in butter.
Another way of saving is buying in
small amounts. - Our grandmothers
extolled the plan of buying in a whole
sale way because wholesale prices are
less than retail, but our grandmothers
had a constant oversight over the use
of both groceries and provisions, and
this Is now frequently impossible. In
most kitchens today everything that
is brought in will be cooked by the
servants at one time and the surplus
thrown away. Therefore if a pound
of 30-eent steak is enouinv it Is waste
ful to buy l"i pound, or a quart of
oysters when a pint will be sufficient,
under the delusion that the left overs
win be used to advantage.
It is wise to dispense with the order
clerk at the door, and especially with
liberty given to servants to order as
they please. Often from ignorance,
and as often from mere lack of in
terest, they order needless things. Go
to the grocery stores and markets,
see what you can buy, and bow much
tt costs. This means a little effort,
but it soon becomes a habit and a
pleasure. Many housekeepers will
testify that it is not so hard to think
what to buy whea In the presence of
the various good things, some of which
on that particular morning can be
bought at aa advantage.
It is not unlikely that there will be
a premeditated block to this system
of looking closely after the table sup
plies, and in the middle of the after
aooa the cook may announce that she
has no baking powder or that she
must have some more eggs. Then is
the time to be firm and to change the
Beam. or. if anything be imperative,
to go for it yourself. After a time it
win be understood that there is to be
ao more reckless aad indiscriminate
ordering.

To Renovate Furniture.
There are many ways of renovating
oM furaitnre. but one of the best
methods is the alternate use of sand
paper and Tarnish. First remove every
article of dust, dirt aad old cracked
varnish from the piece of furniture to
be treated, getting right down to the
bare wood. To aid in this work
cabinet mepci or glass will be neces.
sary and a bottle of wood alcohol
to soften the varnish. After the var
nish is removed, sandpaper the wood
to a smooth surface. At least four
coats ot finishing varnish will be re.
quired, aad after each has become
thoroughly dry rub lightly with fine
sandpaper. After the last coat of var
nish has dried for two days rub boiled
linseed ou on the treated surfaces
with a soft cloth. Country life in
