It may be en t abbreviation of the Latin word J "recipe" (you take), or it may have y been the sign of the pagan god, j Jupiter. Another theory claims that V scholars of the middle ages (often j both physicians and mathematicians) ' usea me Latin wuru taut 10 ikmi- I fy answers to difficult multiplication JS J problems.

This way the floor is free of wet footwear. It'll save you "wiping up" tasks. BREAKFAST PROBLEM Does your trcme to an other? One Vi l m n r n i n P ffCa' v wnen yu c - 'f 1 oversleep, everyone gathers 'round and counts seconds as the coffee brews. Next morning, you feel guilty and prepare breakfast early . . . but no one's ready to eat just yet! With a new gas range, these extremes won't matter. For instance, you can fry eggs at 7:00. The burner-with-a-brain will cut down the heat automat ically, and keep them warm and tender till 8:00! Folks at your local gas company and gas appliance dealer can tell you even more about gas ranges loaded with auto matic features! PAINT oomrrmQ When Spring fever hits, I Ret the urge to frpthen things up with paint. Here's a good tip to remember when you're painting (especially areas above your head): Cut a rub ber ball in half. Make a slit in one of the halves and insert it in the paint-brush handle, "cup" side up. This will save you from having "painted" hair, hands, and clothes. Less drips on the lloor, loo.
