How Can 11? By Anne Ashley Q. What remedy? A. Throbbing headache is often relieved by drinking the juice of half a lemon in fresh water, Fol- low with the other half in about thirty minutes, Also rub sliced lemon over the temples and brow, Q. How can [I give a maple fin- {sh to mahogany furniture? A. The only way to do this without removing the mahogany finish is to give thé furniture a good undercoat and then apply maple varnish stain. Q. How can I remove scars on furniture made by lighted cigar- ettes? § A. The only thing to do is to remove the scar by use of sand- is a good headache paper and then refinish the arti- cle of furniture. ¢ , Q. How can [ remedy tough meat? A. There are several wa It ean be made tender by sufficient pounding, by slow cooking, and also by laying it for a few min- utes in vinegar water. Q. How can I remove kerosene gtains from carpets? A. By sprinkling buckwheat flour over them; let stand awhile, then sweep up carefully; repeat, if necessary. ny on pr Ct We Won't Know Post-War Nylon By Sidney B. Self, in the Wall Street Journal = * When nylon comes back from war, along with the paratroopers who depend on it for their "chutes, civilians will not recognize it. Continuing laboratory explora- tion of nylon is revealing it is the most versatile of modern synthe- tic raw materials. It "ean be silky, rubber-like, woolly, hairy, almost metallic, or ivorylike, at the chemists' will. When nylon is no lonzer monope- lized by war needs, it will find multitudinous new uses. Post-war nylon will reappear in its familiar guises as wonien's hos: iery and brush bristles, ns strings for tennis rackets and tourh line for fishermen. But it will also take such diverse forms as grease- less, non-metallic bearings for high-speed machinery and as "pa- tent leather" type shoes that won't crack. Nylon Blankets It will serve as woven, hole- proof screening on porches and as garden furniture that ignores rain and needs no paint. Nylon rope of tremendous tensile strength "will hold the straining nylon sails of ing yachts, In "winter, nylon" s-and blan- kets will help keep America warm, because nylon appears to make : the best wool-like synthetic so far { - produced. Industry will use nylon paint brushes and a hundred variations of industrial brushes, hard and soft. Tough nylon films can .be used for vacuum packing of dried foods. Wiring for motors and magnets can be automatically given an insulating nylon coating at the rate of nearly a mile a minute, In its rubbery forms it also probably can be used for women's corsets and foundation garments. Varied Chemical Composition The reason why nylon has so many differént forms and uses is _that it is really not one chemical, but a whole family of related chemical compounds. As a che- mical it has a family relationship to silk and hair and wooly to the proteins® in meat and in soya h beans. Sie Besides varying the chemical composition, the chemist can do * startling mechanical tricks with nylon. By controlling stretching, temperatures and moisture, for example, it can be given a per- manent crimp or twist, which is 14 the quality that makes wool woolly and provides warmth by retairing air. It is even possible to make a nylon spring, as fine as a hair or as thick as an elec- tric light wire. : How long it will be before thece various new forms of nylon * will appear on the market {s hard to tay. Many applications will re. quire exhaustive industrial testing. Much greater plant capacity both for making the basic material and i for making various semi-finished forms will have to be huilt.

Here he is at Moncton air port previous to departure on the last leg of his journey, from Moncton to Montreal, seated at the controls of a big T.C.A. passenger liner talking to Captain J. R, Bowker, who piloted the plane, At Winnipeg Beurling was greeted by Wing Commander D.

There are at least 2,000 indus- trial uses for this chemical. Anmi- monia, for instance, is an ingre- dient basic to the manufacture of explosives for bombs, torpedoes, shells and cartridges. It hardens metals for vital parts of airplanes, tanks and guns, It helps vuleanize important rub- ber articles. It is used in making nylon. It enters into the manu- facture of fertilizers. ployed in one process for the manufacture of "Lucite" methyl methacrylate plastic for the noses, gun turrets, navigation "blisters," and other transparent sections of fighting airplanes. Synthesized by Du Pont and others from the elements of air and water with the aid of coal, ammonia simply is one part nitro- _ gen chemically combined with three parts of hydrogen. Ammonia plus oxygen produces nitric acid. Furthermore, nitric acid enters into the manufacture of cellulose nitrate plastics, which have many military applications, Gaseous ammonia flowing. across heated steel under proper conditions imparts a hard, wear resistant surface over the soft core without changing the dimen- sions of the metal. This process, called "nitriding," is necessary to many metal parts for airplanes, tanks, guns and ships. Ammonia helps in refining pet- roleum products. Crude petroleum contains acid harmful to- stills, and these acids are neutralized by It is-em-_| the addition of small amounts of ammonia, In fertilizers, ammonia is used for the ammoniation of superphos- phate and for the manufacture of urca and of sodium nitrate---syn- thetic Chile saltpetre. Synthetic urea, made from am- monia and carbon dioxide, is basio to the manufacture of ammonium sulfamate, the new industrial chemical used for flame proofing workmen's clothes, uniforms, and other textiles. Urea formaldehyde plastics have numerous military applications. 2,7. Ammonia is used in the manu- facture of vat dyes, apd in wool - scouring to remove fats, waxes and dirt. Long and varied is the list of achievements of this rela- tively inconspicuous chemical. "It Can't Be Done' = But Bee Does It Sign in works: According to the theory of aero- dynamics, and as may be readily demonstrated through wind tun- nel experiments, the bumblebee is unable to fly. This {s because the size, weight, and shape ot his body in relation to the total wingspread make flying impossible, But the bumblebee, being ignor-, ant of these scientific truths, goes ahead and files anyway--and makes _ a little honey every day. 2 " SAFES Protect your HOOKS and CASH from FIRE and THIEVES, We have » alze and type of Safe, or Cahinet, for nav purpose.

Gracié Fields told the story of 'Erbert 'Awkins, only 4 feet 11, who quarreled so violently with his wife that he didn't hear an air-raid alarm: As he stamped out, slamming the door, a bomb landed nearby, bringing his house down around his ears. When a rescue squad dug him out an hour later, one man ob- served: _ - "Blime, but you're a little fel- low." Replied "Erbert, gazing proudly af the wreckage. "I may be little, but can I slam a door!" __Browne was 'phoning his wife from the office. "Hullo, dear," he said. © "I'm very sorry, but I won't be home till very late to- night. I'm fire-watching." "Oh, you are, are you," snapped his wife. "And who is the flame?" "What are you studying now?" asked the new-rich mother of her youngest son. "We have just begun the study of molecules," he answered. For a moment she looked blank; "then a gleam of interest showed in her eyes. wiitbmiamee oh mpm "] hope: you will be attentive and practice constantly," she ex- claimed eagerly.

This Is A Land, Sea And Air War General MacArthur's brilliant victory in the Bismarck Sea, In which a Jap fleet of 22 ships was wiped out by land-based planes, should not be misinterpreted to mean that land-based planes alone can win the war. The planes that sank the ships took off from bases conquered, after long. and hard fighting, by land troops. These 1'nd troops were brought to the battlefleld by ships under naval convoy. The bombs the planes carried, and the . gasoline that fuel.d them, were transported to the alr bases by ship. In reality, therefore, the operation that sank the Jap fleet was a combin®d naval, land and air peratlon, X When the time comes to make another advance against Japan, a new combined operation willl be 'required, In which land, sea and air forces must all take thelr ap pointed part. < The New Wing: Built In 1377! Lord Crangoren, the ex-Minister of Colonies and Britain's Lord Privy Seal, recently was visited at his home Im Cranborne by a young American who recited his geneology--tracing his American ancestry 'back to the Meyllower _days. "Come with me, I want to show you this house," Lord Cranboren interrupted. "Now take this. part--this is the new wing," "The NEW wing?" asked the Am- erican. "It looks so old." "It was built in 1377," the host informed, "but 'nevertheless -- it's the new wing." -- Leonard Lyons in The New York Post, Ugandas-Are Not As Lesser Tribes Capt.
