1 Hints For Homebodies
Written for The Advance -Times
Jesie Alen Brown
By
Modern Purchasing
Years ago, people depended largely
on the reputation of the store, as a
guide to their buying. Nowadays, ws
want to know whose product we are
, buying. The general use of package
goods has had considerable to do with
this. When we bought food products
in bulk, there was no way of knowing
where they carne from, Now, with
tai most articles, we know the manufact-
urer or grower ,and if their brand has
suited our requirements, we are apt
to buy it each time.
Food is not the only thing that we
buy by brand. Hosiery, shoes, under-
wear, men's shirts, sweaters and
woollens generally, furniture, tools,
as a matter of fact, almost anything
we use,
If it is possible, I buy by name,
going on the established reputation
of the firm, putting out the product.
Preferably, I purchase advertised: ar-
ticles, because I fell more faith in a
firm, which has sufficient faith in
their own product to advertise it.
Advertising puts across many an
unknown product, but it cannot keep
it there, if there is not merit in the
advertised article. People will buy a
thing once or maybe twice because
of advertising, but if it is not satis-
,i actory, they will not continue buy -
g it,
Buying by brand makes the work
of general purchasing agent for the
family very much easier. When we
find what we like and have proven its
reliability to our own satisfaction, we
need only buy by name, as most of
the manufacturers try to keep their
.products uniform:
Those Extra Calories
Desserts and the extra little tit -bits
are the bugbear of our friends who
are trying to take off some of the ex-
tra poundage. How they do love
them! Though, I suppose if they did
not love 'them, they would not be
fat. T could not help thinking of that
last night.,'I was out with some lad-
ies,, and although it was barely an
hour after dinner, one of theta (the
fattest of the party) suggested candy.
Tato of the ladies were quite slight.
and one or two candies was all they
wanted, but the fatter ones ate until
'there were no more. If we eat 500
calories extra each ,day, we. will gain
a pound a week, and it does not take
many sweets to make, 500 calories.
Here are some of them.
First as to candies. Plain hard
candies are the• safest, as it takes
about an ounce of them to make 100
calories. Chocolatesand nut candies
are richer and: contain a certain am-
ount of fat; so it just takes a little,
over a half ounce to yield 100 calor-
ies. Chocolates vary greatly in size,
but one , fair-sized chocolate will
weigh a half -ounce and add 100 cal-
ories.
Three lumps of sugar or two
rounding teaspoons give you another
100 calories. As for rich jams, jellies
and marmalade, one tablespoon is all
that is required.
Ice -creams vary in richness but it
takes just if cupful of an average ice-
cream to give yoti 100 calories. Wa-
tea-ice is a little kinder and you can
VE on your
,q,/yr') I bills.,
Here's more nourishment at less money
for you Delicious, appetizing Syrups
full of health and energy. Serve them
in place of expensive desserts.

teke as much as a cup.
Puddings vary considerably, corn
starch, blanc mange and so, on only
require 113 of a capful, while rice, 1
bread and tapioca require a i' capful.
The average serving of dessert is us-
ually reckoned at about 350 calories.
Pies with two cruets run about 400
calories to the average serving. With-
out the top crust, they are not quite
as rich, although this depends on the
filling•.
It takes cupful of thin cream to
give 100.calories and only one heap-
ing teaspoon of whipped cream. just
think of what pie with whipped cream
would account :for„ in the weight of
calories.
One little piece of cake isn't much,
but a piece about 1 inches square
amount to about 100 calories—with-
out the icing. Two cookies will do
the trick and doughnuts are bad -it
takes only i doughnut for 100 cal-
ories.
These are only suggestions and
may serve as a double guide, to those
who want to take off weight, 'and to
those who want to' put it on. It is
dangerous to take too many sweets,
even for the purpose of potting on
weight.
Grumbling at Meals
Most mothers have the unhappy
experience of having to listen to the
children grtunble about their meals,
at some time or another. They take
notions and first thing you know it
has become a habit. It is fearfully
wearing to have to listen to it, and
it is a bad habit for the child to' de-
velop, as a finicky eater is a nuisance
all through .life. Scolding does not
do a bit of good. I learned that by
sad experience. Reward's sometimes
work. wonderfully. A clean-up plate
With no grumbles wins the .reward.
It should be something that the child-
ren enjoy. Candy is always popular
and after a meal is the proper time
i to . eat it. Some simple candy, such
as marshmallow, plain hard candies,
1 cr plain chocolate are all permissab-le.
.After the child has eaten meals with-
out grumbling, it forgets all about it,
as the grumbling is nothing but a bad
habit, and like all other bad habits,
should be broken if possible.
Hallowe'en Cookies
' Make chocolate cookies. Ice with
orange icing and make eyes, nose and
mouth with a toothpick dipped into
melted chocolate.
Chocolate Cookies
1 cup shortening
teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 eggs beaten
3 cups pastry flour
2 cups brown sugar
213 cup cocoa
Cream the sugar and shortening,
add eggs and sifted dry ingredients.
Chill. Roil very thin and cut with a
cookie cutter. Bake about 450 de-
grees.

W. M. S. CONFERENCES
QExcellent Conference Held
in Walton.
The W. M. S. Conference for the
centre section of Huron Presbyterial
was held in 'Walton' United Church
on Friday, October 16th. The chair
was taken by Mrs. Fowler, Clinton,
the vice-president for this section.
The morning devotional exercises
were conducted by the Clinton On-
tario St, Auxiliary. Mrs. Jas. Allan
of Egmondville responded to the ad-
dress of welcome.
Thirteen of the fifteen Auxiliaries
were present to answer the roll call
with a short report in the morning.
These reports of this year's work up
to date, were very interesting and
encouraging. Many seem to have ac-
cepted the challenge of the day and
are working not in spite of the de-
pression but rather because of it.
Walton had a very large represen-
tation. Egmonnville came next with
15 members present. Seaforth is the
largest Auxiliary with 114 members.
The yhave succeeded in sending- in
their allocation quarterly, which all
the auxiliaries hope to do soon. Al-
though Duffa Auxiliary have only 12
members, they have fifteen Subscrib-
ing for the Missionary Monthly and
are always active. Constance fre-
quently comes with some new diea
,for raising their allocation, this time
it is the travelling basket in which
b ythe Seaforth Auxiliary, Mrs,'1Ne11�
wood of Winghain, called the roll of
:Mission Bands, 'This new Secretary
of Mission l3ands is very keenly in7
terested in the work and app>oals tt:r
the Auxiliaries who arc: pot mother-
jng. a J3and to oragniae Pee as soon
as possible. There are 15 Auxiliaries
in Centre Section. and only 10 Mis'
sion Bands. Two of these; Monerief
and Winthrop, have just recently
been formed. She said that early im-
pressions are always lasting and if We
want missionary workers in the fut-
ure they roust be trained now. Mrs.
Farrel of Clinton, the newly appoint-,
ed Baby Band Secretary, called the
roll and spoke on Baby Band work,
Mrs. Greer of Win.gham, Christian
Stewardship and Finance Secretary,
urged that every finance committee
be'al.so a prayer committee. The mot-
to of 'the \V,M,S, is "Pray, Study,
Give." Let us not forget that, she
said.
Mrs. Moorehouse, of Exeter, the
treasurer in giving her report said
that our aim should be to give all
;ve can to spread the Master's work.
The beautiful solo "Pass it on" was
sung by Mrs. Colin. Fingland. Mrs.
Lane of Seaforth, •the president, con-
ducted a memorial service, special
mention being made of Mrs. Hogg,
our beloved past president. Mrs.
Leary of Seaforth and Mrs. Farrel
of Clinton, the Resolution Committee
in presenting the resolutions made
special mention of Temperance.
The Walton Mission ].land present-
ed an exercise in which the children
of others lands told a Canadian child
why they were happy, because they
had learned of Jesus. The invitation
from Cavin Church, Winthrop, to
meet there next year was accepted.
Miss MacKenzie, of Africa, gave a
vary interesting account of her work
there. She said that at the present
time they were much in need of sev-
eral men missionaries in Angola. The
work there is very encouraging. Dur-
ing the 1st 30 years of Missionary
work 28 out stations were establish-
ed; during the next 20 years '700 more
have been added. The response is
marvelous, she declared. Christian
Missions have made a new world for
the African women, She had some
hand work done by them which prov-
ed that they are naturally very ar-
tistic. The conference came to a close
by singing the hymn "The morning
light is breaking" and Mrs. Greer led
in prayer.

Greer said, Mrs. J. Colclough, supply
secretary, gave a very •interesting re-
port of what had -been sent away and
told how much. it had been appreciat-
ed. Mrs. (Rev.) Mortimer, of Auburn
formerly of West China, spoke on the
situation in .Manchuria. She told a
dreamt in which Christ stood before
the I eague of Nations and question-
eel each nation in- turn concerning
their attitude toward the impending
War. By their answers each nation
the world as a Prince of Peace or,
said that His policy had proved a
failure. Then having heard then all,
Christ said "You may have this one
more war. But as yo ureali're what
it will mean? You will came on bend-
ed knee and implore me to stop it.
The • only way T ran teach you is to
let you do what you want—but you
will never want to do it again." As
. ither denied Christ's power to rule
a most fitting conclusion she sang a
piece of her own composition 'The
Hornet Song." The Misses Doles of
Westfield, sang a duet ''Burdens are
pressing in Soniebndy's life." Then
the Hamilton Conference Branch,
followed up what Mrs. Mortimer had
said iiy - beginnin'g her address 'with.
the question "Do we really believe
that Christ's program ' is adequate?"
To prove that it was she told what
learning of Jesus had done for Mike,
a new Canadian in Northern Alberta,
"Have we been asleep and not pray-
ed enough for our workers at• the
frontier of physical and spiritual' war-
fare?" she asked. Mrs. Cook of Ash-
field and Mrs. Tole, of Blyth, were
the Courtesy committee. Mrs. Shaw
of Nile, Mrs; Lane of Ashfield, and
Mrs, MacKenzie of Pt. Albert, were
named for the resolution committee.
Mrs. Wightman who has made an ex-
