The tires of the car in front may throw a stone that may crack the windshield or a headlight lens or may damage the radiator. Don't cut sharply in front of a ear you have passed on gravel, for the reason that your tires may throw stones.

Parking. When stopping for. any reason, always park off the road. This rule applies particularly on mountain roads, where the view ahead is frequently obstructed. Passing. Never pass another car when the view ahead is obstructed, such as is frequent on curves and in hilly or mountainous country. It is far better to be delayed a few minutes than to risk the possibility of a headon collision with an appraching car. Right of Way. The motor vehicle laws of practically every state provide that cars on your right at ordinary intersections have the right of way over you, and that you have the right of way over cars on your left. It is not wise, however, to seize the right of way when it. can not be done with safety. Warning signs. Always slow down at intersections, schools and railroad crossings. The latter at night should be negotiated with extreme caution, for the reason that locomotive headlights at night ar© very deceptive. Keep to the right. Always keep to the right except when passing.

One of the hardest things for the average woman to do is to regulate her purchases to the amount she has to spend for food. It takes real selfdenial to pass by the attractive delicacies for the table and confine one's self to the urgent needs. Shopping and marketing are fln« things to develop self-eontrol. In too many households the mar keting problem Is left to haphaza^4 buying or the last minute order, and SO it Is either a feast or a famine to Which the family look forward. The tender cuts of meat do not contain any more nourishment and they lack the extractives which are found In the more active muscles and so they lack the flavor. Cheaper cuts which are used for meat are often thrown away because of the idea that they have lost their food value. The fact Is all the food value Is still there, the lack Is In the flavor or extractives, which may be supplied in various ways--adding flavorful vegetables, meat sauces and condiments, thos making palatable and nourishing dishes from meat left from broths. When we learn that marketing Is a household science which needs study and observation and that extravagant buying, however full the purse, is never to be Indulged, we are In a fair way to Improve in that part of household management We are told by those who have made a study of family needs that before a pound of meat is bought a quart of milk should supply the dally need of every child in the family. Milk may be used as a drink, as a main dish, In puddings, sauees, with ccreals for breakfast and supper. TOO FAR? NO!
