It would not turn bad, although it could and would spoil eventually by burning. If food is to simmer, it is important for the heat to be evenl& distributed under the container. If the container is very small, it can be left over the small burned, called the simmerer in a gas range.

GUNN. “Strengthen ye the wezk hands, and confirm the feeble knees.”—1Is., XXxv.3 The Bible constantly insists on the debt of the strong to weak; and in this it includes the whole range of human disparities, the debt of health to sickness, of wealth to poverty, of wisdom to ignorance. There is no sin to which it attaches more culpability than of this debt. The one stal 3 charged against him.

D!AR MISS DIX—The value of the efficiency expert, who is called to the case when & business gets sick, has beyond the shadow of a doubt. Why don’t women have som of same sort? Why do they not have an efficiency and budget expert go from house to house, look in the back yard, cellar, garbage can an closets so she can tell the domestic women where the waste in their households was located, how to improve their conditions and save money? She might criticize their deficlency in a diplomatic way. Show them how to improve their housekeeping, how to take better care their children, etc. She could show the domestic woman how she could have more money or make the amount she now has last . How to have a stock pot instead of a garbage can. It seems to me that a visiting female domestic efficiency expert might fill a long-felt wan! with wemen and do a lot to promote domestic peace and hlyphl;l.! NSWER—That's & grand ides, Mr. 5. P. S, and I am glad to push it along. For the trouble with practically all the women who waste their money and their families with bad cooki is ignorance. They have never n trained for their husbands with their extravi and mal that send their husbands and children to the street to try to fin place of comfort, TH’E main reason that women hate housework is because they don’t know how to do it. We afl have the pride of craftsmanship and enjoy doing the thing that we do expertly and for which we are ap- plauded by our fellow creatures. The opera famous writer can't be kept from her typewriter. ness woman thinks in terms of trade. The woman whose dresses are artistic creations enjoys sewing. The woman who is a marvelous cook delights in making her pies and bread. JT is the women who are bunglers who hate their work. It is the woman whose house is always messy who tells you that she hates domesticity. Tt is the woman whose food would kill an ostrich that loathes the kitchen. Teach women how to systematize their nousekeeping and do it with the least possible energy. Teach them how to cook and you will have l\::lpcn who glorify housekeeping and get real pleasure out of making mes. IT is a great idea, this of having a female eficiency expert, and there would be no end to her usefulness. Suppose, for instance, her func- tlons would include keeping an eye on the way her patrons dressed and telling women what clothes to buy. Women waste millions of dollars every year by buying the wrong things. Hats that are misadventures and dresses that are misfortunes. Things that looked all right in the shops and look all wrong at home. Colors that swear at everything else in their owner’s wardrobes. Styles that bring out all of their worst points. QUPPOSE the Bmciency expert, in addition to peering into garbage cans, could take a look in the skeleton closet and point out to wives how they were wasting their happiness in over the trivial faults of their husbands and how they were scrapping their happiness by nagging and faultfinding and a hundred little errors they had fallen into with- out even knowing it. And perhaps the efficlency expert might show moth- ers how they were bringing on trouble for themselves by spoiling the children. DOROTHY DIX. BY MISSIS PHYLLIS. Z-Z-Z-Z-ZINGI goes the telephone.

Read the following summary of the replies received: 96% of the answers stated that germ acids most frequently cause tooth decay and gum irritation ; ©B8% agreed that the most serious trouble occurs at the place where teeth and gums meet; 86% stated that the best product to prevent these acids from cuusing decay and irritating the gums is Milk of Magnesia. Squibb Dental Cream is made with more than 50% Squibb Milk of Magnesia. Isn’t this real assurance that its formula is correct—that it will protect your teeth and gums? There are dozens of different tooth-pastes —with countless conflicting theories. But it is significant that dentists agree on one type of dentifrice. Try Squibb’s. Notice how beautifully it cleans. How it refreshes the ‘mouth! Squibb’s contains no grit, no astringent — nothing which might injure. Coprright 1931 by E. R.
