My CEC book is at work but it is common practice to use 3 conductor cable to run 2 circuits. A kitchen spit receptacle is an example. You don't run 4#14 to them you only run 3#14 (2 hots and a neutral) if your loads are perfectly ballanced (very uncommon) there will be no current flowint in the neautral. if they are unballanced the only unballanced amount of current flows in the neutral.
