Morgan ra Ee be os . € i __* Consider These Points Personal daiutiiess isone of the iki requisites of immaculate groom. ng, : (a BA Fr Consider your whole hody and. your clothes, as well-as your face and fig: ure, when you plan a winter beauty routine, Woollen frocks and steam heated rooms cause quite a lot of ex- cess perspiration and you should bear that in mind constantly. Allow enough iw plan to use a good deodorant under your arms at least twice a week, _ Woollen clothes need to be dry- cleaned frequently, and they should | be aired thoroughly several times be- tween cleanings, Hang them in the sun, 'wrong side out, and leave them for.a few hours. : Be sure that each dress has shields in it. This is important no matter 'how persistently you use deodorants. Remember to clean the shields each time you clean the dress, and it's not 'a bad idea to clean shields oftener than that, Dip them in a little house- hold ammonia and hang them in the sun to dry. : : Fur collars need attention, too. You can't keep your neck clean if you wear the same fur collar all winter without cleaning it atleast once every two weeksg, A rough bath towel and a.bit . of cleaning fluid will clean any fur 'collar and won't hurt the fur a bit, - Neck scarfs, either wool or silk ones, should be washed or dry 'clean- ed often, In other words, be just as fastidious about your outer garments a8 you are about the lingerie which you wear next to your skin. To Preserve Hose Always wash new stockings before wearing. them, The heat of the foot acting upon the unwashed silk may "washing strengthens the 'stockings. Two Well-Balanced Interesting Menus .- Nowadays our menus reveal a ten- _ "dency to drift away from the old-fas. hioned heavy meals with their hearty _ are. made with attention to a balanced diet and our choice of foads is not limited to season. The following dinner menus are balanced: 4 Menu No. 1 Braised calf's liver, stuffed baked tomatoes, Parker House rolls, jellied cabbage-salad, peach -up-side-down cake, milk, coffee, ; ~~ Braise -the liver with carrots and -onions, : ; The tomatoes are stuffed with a mixture of cooked macaroni, tomato pulp and cheese. The combination provides a pleasing contrast with the * 'rather. highly seasoned liver. A prepared lemon or pineapple jelly powder may be used with the cabbage for the salad. Threads of green and red sweet peppers add color if scat- tered through the mould. Fresh or cdnned peaches are u for the dessert.. Menu No. 2 Stewed. - chicken in rice horder, creamed onions, tomato and lettuce salad, mint ice cream with chocolate sauce, 'crisp cookies, milk, coffee. Tender young chickens are disjoint: ed and simmered gently until tender. One cup of chicken stock is combined with 1 cup cream and the liquid is sed thickened with 1 tablespoon flour rub- bed to a smooth paste with 1 table- gpoon butter. This is brought to the boiling point and poured over the chicken arranged in a border of steami- ed rice. Cut head lettuce in slices and ar- range with alternating slices of peeled tomatoes, Serve with French dressing. To make the mint ice cream crush peppermint stick candy and add to any plain ice cream recipe, omitting the sugar, Use one-half pound candy to a quart of ice cream. Use small onions and simmer them uncovered until tender. Then add to a well seasoned white sauce... Tiny onions left whole and served this way are very inviting. 'ig ~~ Caramelized Onions With a winter of the old-fashioned variety, solid, good food is called for, and what better than the appetizing « health-giving onion, Try this recipe. It is sure to be a success with every Be J on nie ->-e Peel small onions, prick with tines|' of fork at top and bottom, parboil un. til nearly done. Drain, place in frying pan, dot and sprinkle with equal mea- sures of butter and sugar. Cook slow- ly, turning the bulons often until each ond is carmelized, . : i ] Hot Potato Salad To make hot potato salad you will want some medium-size potatoes, which should be boiled in their skins in the ordinary way. $e When cooked, peel and let them get cool; then, with a sharp knife, cut them in thin and even slices. This salpd is served in the dish in which it is cooked. Brush the bottom slightly with salad oil before putting in the potatoes; chop very finely some parsley, chives, or the green part of some spring onions; sprinkle them with seasoning and a pinch of sugar over the potatoes, Mix some best salad oil with Tara- gon and wine vinegar; heat it, and when almost at boiling point, pour it over the potatoes. . Cover the dish with a greased paper and put it in a moderate oven until the potatoes are really hot. Should you make this salad in the winter, chopped celery in place of the onion is a delightful flavor. The amount of oil and 80 on you will need depends upon how many pota- toes you have, The vinegar is used in equal proportions of both kinds. : A Heart Dinner % : What can we have for dinner tha is nourishing, appetizing, and won't necessitate any left-overs? This is a question that often arises. A stuffed heart is the answer. Wash the heart in warm salted water, then. gently boil for one hour. Make a forcemeat with four table- spoons breadcrumbs, two tablespoons shredded suet, a dessertspoon mixed herbs, a small chopped onion; salt-and pepper, Bind together with a beaten 'OBB. .. ; : 'Stuff: the heart with the forcemeat, 'stitch the opening, and' rub over with seasoned: flour. - Place the heart in & baking tin, smear with dripping, then bake in a moderate oven for 3 hour, keeping it well basted. : An Economical Sponge Cake If you feel you would like a change in cakes from. the rich Christmas fare here is a sponge cake that is delicate and white: yet is simply made from | ony three eggs. , 4 Hot Milk Sponge Cake Measure 1 cup sifted cake flour. Add 1 teaspoon baking powder and sift to- gether three times, Beat three eggs until very thick and.light and nearly white, Add 1 cup sugar, gradually, beating constantly. Add 2 teaspoons lemon juice. Fold in flour, alternately with 6 tablespoons hot milk, mixing quickly until batter is smooth. Bake at once in ungreased tube pan in mod- 'erate oven (380 deg. F.) 15 minutes. Remove from oven and invert pan for 1 hour or until cold. Denver Firemen Told To Stop Giving Blood Denver.--The Denver Fire Depart- ment is losing too much blood, Chief Healy says, and he has moved to stop it. More than one hundred fire- men, accordings - to reports, have given blood to hospital patients with- in a short period.' Chief Healy is not opposed to-the practice in principle, but he points 'out that some of the men have been so generous as to endanger. their health, He maintains that the first duty of a fireman is to keep himself in the best possible condition to fight fires and conseq@¥@ntly has ordered no more transfusions, at least for the time being. PESTER, SRR Cottages at Low Rent : By Mass Production How cottages could be provided for agricultural workers at a small rental plained by W. Harding Thompson, London, England.

Three polite bandits had just tied the last knots in the twine which firmly bound Mrs. Ramona Santos, her 22-year-old daughter, and four men, friends of the 'family, in Mrs, Santos' apartment in this city, when someone kmotked at the door. Hastily pocketing the $200 in cash and the wrist watch they had taken from the group, one of the rob- bers opened the door and thrust his revolver under the nose of a laundry man. o The latter dropped his bundle of clean wash and submitted while the bandits. tied his arms and legs gently but firmly. They had just deposited him with thd six other victims when there came another knock at the door. 'Happily tlie. men welcomed ar-grocer, comestibles he had brought. "Ha, coffee," sald one of the men, sniffing joyfully as he seized a perco- lator and made for the stove. There was another knock. This time it was a fruit vendor, and he took his place, bound, with other members of the un- comfortable group in the corner, Some oranges and grapefruit he had brought were peeled and sliced. The coffee was poured, steaming, into three cups. The radio was turned on. Breakfast was ready. : : "While the men were chatting pleas- antly over their coffee and cigarettes, Miss Santos managed to inform them that the wrist watch they had taken was a gift from her dead father. It was returned, with apolegies. Then; wiping the fruit juice from their fin gers and the coffee from their lips, the bandits bade their victims adieu and departed. Several minutes later Mrs. Santos_wriggled fre and sounded an alarm. ; . 2 If You Were Mdyyied to Mendelssohn's Tune New York.--Walter Damrosch, the conductor, is logking for husbands and wives who were married the greatest number of years ago to the strains of Mendelssohn's famous wedding march. The four record-holding couples will be his guests at the Mendelssohn cele- bration here January 17, the proceeds of which will be-given to unemployed musicians. The march was brought to the United States shortly after Mendels- sohn composed it in 1833, and its popu- larity was so immediate that for many years no wedding was complete with- out it. - Damrosch has written words to the a tied him up, too,-and unwrapped the | march which will be sung by a chorus Modest Package Worth $500,000 Wrapped in Brown Paper the Famous Codex Sinaiticus Arrives 'at British Museum London.--A moderate-sized brown paper parcel taken by motor car to the. British: Museum recently repre: gented a half million dollar pur- chase by the British Government of the Codex Sinaiticus, tourth-century Bible manuscript, : ~Bibliophiles say that in gotting the manuscript from the Soviet Govern ment for $500,000 the British Govern: ment got a bargain. Not only that, but: Russia has agreed to gpend the purchase price In Ergland for ma- chinery and the. like. : . Originally the Soviet asked a total of $2,500,000 for the Codex, called the most valuable - manuscript in the world's history. ! Arrived Christmas Conveyed * to. England by. special courler, "who arrived. Christmas Eve, the manuscript remained in the strong vaults over the holidays and after a formal receipt was given the Soviet representatives the British Intermedi- ary, a noted book dealer, guarded by detectives, took the parcel by car to the Museum where a queue of sev eral hundred awalted its arrival. The crowd was allowed to enter the board room and witness the presen- tation to Sir George Hill, director of the British Museum. Unwrapped, the parcel was revealed in a tin box of red and go'd, the manuscript itself belng carefully - shrouded in cotton wool. Dr. Bell, keeper of manu- geripts, latér made an {nspection to cee that none of the pages were missing. 1 Placed on View The Codex was then plzced on gen- eral view in a special case in the en- trance hall, which already contained the 14th century copy of the Penta- tench in Hebrew, Ag the British Museum went into the 'deal with the British Govern- ment on a 60-50 basls, it has to raise $250,000 by public subscription. The subscriptions are already flocking in. One old lady in Scotland sent a half- a-Crown, 60 cents, which she said hoped would pay for a single letter in the Codex, The Codex, discovered in the mid- dle of the 19th "century on Mount Sinai, came int8igpsesession. of the Soviet authorities from the relics of Tear Alexander. 5 2 ANOTHER GAME .

The "dole" fund was running into debt to the tune of a million pounds a week, There were those, even, who predicted London had forever lost. her pre- eminence in finance, that war and the aftermath of war had dealt such a blow that recovery was well-night im- possible, 4 Since those tragic days Great Bri- tain has quietly set the world an ex- ample which foreign nations are now breathlessly endeavoring to emulate, Always slow to act, she actéd with startling thoroughness. With ruth- less axe and tax she re-established her fiance; Her bankrupt dole fund is now operating .with a balance on hand Favorable balances have already re- duced by nearly three millions the In- cluded in the unemployment bill now before Parliament is an amortization scheme to wipe out the remainder by fixed payment from the fund within a maximum of 40 years. FINANCES REFORMED, With.extraordinary success she car- ried through the most extensive scheme of debt conversion known .to financial history, She abandoned her traditional free-trade policy. She left gold; and the reaction echoed round the Seven Seas. At Ottawa, she con- cluded trade agreements with other nations of the British Commonwealth. With foreign countries, she made in endeavor to break through the bounds of rigid economic nationalisms. "She has embarked on a five-year slum clearance plan. By schemes of marketing and control she is endeavoring to restore her. agri- culture to a paying basis. INDUSTRY RECOVERING.

Under the impulse of cheap labor! and depreciated currency, Japan is breaking into British trade even in the Crown colonies, Britain's great] shipping is suffering from the ecompe- tition of foreign shipping asssted by | state subsidies, Less and less cargo is being brought to Britain herself in British ships, and more and more in| foreign ships, said Alexander Shaw, chairman, at the annual meeting of the P, and O. "and as from year to year, the tonnage of British ships) entering British ports declines, the tonnage of foreign ships . entering British ports increases....' SHIPPING IN DIFFICULTIES. For the first ten months of the year the net tonnage of British ships en- tering at and clearing from United Kingdom ports with cargo, compared with 1931, has been reduced by more than 6,000,000 tons. The tonnage of foreign vessels entering at and clear- ing from British ports on the other hand has gone up by over. 3,700,000 tons. Compared with the same period last year the figures are: British shipping down 1,460,000 tons; foreign shipping up 2,200,000 tons. ; The Council of the Chamber of Shipping has forwarded to the Gov- ernment a report of the shipping committee, recommending temporary subsidies for tram ships in service or laid up. The object is to equalize advantdges of foreign competition due to subsidies, depreciated curren- cies and lower wage costs, Belgian Army Officers See Test of Helicopter Brussels.--A machine for vertical flying successfully maintained itself for nine minutes and fifty-eight sec- onds in a recent 'demonstration be- fore high ranking civil and military air officials.

Old-Fashioned Girl Had More Intellect "Than Modern Sister 'Boston.--A real "old fashioned girl" of the old stone age, who was smart. er than her modern sister, if you can judge by brain capacity, gave a new idea of the origin of the human race today before the American Associa- tion for the Advancement of Science, She was a true "Minerva" of 10, 000 years ago and an Amazon as well. Her brain capacity was. 1,430 cuble centimetres as against 1,300 for the average young woman of today and 1,450 for the modern man, and though only 20 years old she stood nearly six feet tall, better than the average for modern girls of the same age. 2 : 'Study of this and other skeletons of the old stone age shows that new measurenients of the many hones of ancient man mow in museums may greatly clarify the mystery of the origin of the present human race said Prof. Gerhardt von Bonin of the Uni- versity of Illinois. Out of the old stone age, presumably, came the modern human race. oo Coiffure Tournament Held in A thrilling race between 25 of the world's finest hairdressers to evolve an exquisite coifture from a straight head of hair was witnessed at the international halrdressing tournament to commemorate the 70th anniversary of the Societe du Progres de la Coif- teur a Londres (London), The: competitors included both men and women, Great Britain was rep- resented by 12 competitors and other countries represented were France, Germany, Spain and Austria, Each was equipped only with marcel irons, a pair of scissors and comb.

A doctor will tell you that he aso lives by water and mincrals. Just what be: comes of the bread, the water and tha minerals is explained by ti. process - of metabolism -- a process whereby food, which is so much fuel and raw material to our body factories, is con- verted int6 energy and tissue. nt While 'there can be no doubt that : food is thus utilized, the actual meths. = ~ TRS TRE TE "vy as a factory and as a machine. Chemi- cal 'and physical functions .are car- = ried out in. the cell, and the cell is so small that it is impossible ta s.udy it in action as we would the dissolu- tion of sugar in a teacup. Neverthe less it is safe to apply what is known of chemistry and physics, The evidende is convincing that the fluids and salts in cells "are nicely balanced in accordance with the prin- ciples of chemistry and physics that are applied in laboratories. There is a balance, for example, between bled and lymph, between blood and spinal fluid, between blood and the watery liquid behind the lens of the eye. Rea- soning thus, Dr, Eugene Foldes, for- merly Assistant Professor of Medicine in the University of Budapest, but Si now of New York, presents a new theory of health and of the disagree- able process of growing old in his re- cently published "New Approach to Dietetic Therapy." ' FACTORS IN AGING PROCESS, Physicians know well enough that in certain diseases of the heart and the kidney the body retains water. So vare are the cases, on the whole, that the body is assumed to rid itself of difficulty. Dr. Foldes presents a vast body of evidence to show that this no- tion is wrong and traces the origin of many. diseases to the retention of water and minerals, When water and minerals are held 'back by the tissues of the brain, epilepsy and fits of var. ious kinds result. If it is the heart ~~ "°° that does the retaining, we have an- i gina pectoris; if theslungs, bronchial: asthma; if it.is the joints, we have gout, : : But more than:a local damming up: of water and minerals----may be in: volved. Case after case is recorded of a general retention - throughout 'the body, 'and it is to this that Dr. Foldes : attributes the rapid aging of many men and women. 'To stay young, get rid of the 'water and minerals that: your.body no longer needs at maturity. One form of diagnosis is to deter- mine the state of the water iii the body. Dr. Foldes distinguishes be. tween the normal water and mineral = content and the supernormal and sub. normal. As might be supposed, thera is little mineral salt in the &uper- . normal, and so much in the subnormal that it is definitely classified as "sal inous." A fourth state of water varies widely in its amount of mineral con tent--an indication of a predisposi- tion to catarrh, cold and other res- piratory diseases. Diet is the chief factor in unbal- ancing the water and minerals of the body. By a proper control of what is caten--more steaks and less pastry for those who cannot get rid of the' water in their cells rapidly enough-- Dr. Foldes shows how he has different diseases running from epilepsy and: pernicious anemia to pimples, and ner- vous disorders and bronchial asthma to colds. What we have, then, is.a new way of treating diseases by control- ling food and liquids in quantity and quality. 3 A or ------ Black and Grey Tiger Puzzle to "Scientists Georgetown, British Guiana.--Appli- cation may be made to the New York Zoological Society for ald in identi: tying a species 'of tiger, slain in the jungle of British Gulana.: The tiger, shot by Vincent Roth on a survey expedition, is a peculiar gray color . with black spots, not unlike the: treacherous black panther, but having i a narrow skull. Roth, like his father, the late Dr. Walter Roth, noted anthoropolist and curator of the British Guiana Mus- eum, has spent most of his life in the hinterland.
