Kitchen science is as important, if
not more so, in promoting dome-tic
felicity, health, wealth and happiness,
than any of the sciences. Home eco

frugality, at the same time looking
to tho conserving of the health of
members of the family.
Thousands, yea, tens of thousands
are dying annually On account of
overeating or improper nourishment.
Domestic acierwe and home .economics \
does not mean doing without one I
thing you need in order to get an- j
other thing you need, but managing
so that you supply both needs at a
minimum cost. The law of God has
decreed that man shall provide the

Navigating the Trinity river to
