A reverse search at Perseus ("useful") turned up this:

euchrst-os, on, also -, on Orph.Fr.272: (chraomai):--

                        useful, serviceable, en tini Hp. Fract.16 (Sup.);

                      etc.; eis ti D.S. 5.40 (Sup.); of persons, c. dat.,

I recommend again a site that was recommended earlier for its ability to
search ANRW titles, "What do you want to know?" at U Ky:
http://www.uky.edu/ArtsSciences/Classics/lexindex.html. It also allows
you to search, as I did, for specific English in LSJ definitions.
