Keeping Bread.

For a bread box. Il covered stone
crock.
The bread will keep much nicer than
in tin vessel.
The crock should be placed in cool
place.
Never put the bread in it without
covering il with a cloth, to exclude the
air
To keep sandwiches that have been
prepared beforehand moist wrap them
in slightly damp cloth. This is not
practical if they are to be kept too
long, as they will get musty.
Be careful that not a bit of butter
gets into the bread box. 1t will get
rancid and make the rest of the brel 4
taste.
Receptacles should be scalded out
frequently, being wiped we'll afterward.
The cloths used to cover the bread
should also be washed often.

The enormous feminine demand for
'artifieial coils and toupes is leading to
famine in human hair. Formerly
Swiss, German and Hungarian girls
supplied the world of fashionable
women with luxuriant tresses. of all
tints. But the governments of many
countries are now making it illegal for
a girl to sell her hair or for an agent
to buy it. The supply in consequence
is running short and the prices Of real
hair are, trebling. A series of sue
cessful experiments point to spun
glass as the most effective substitute
for human hair. Wigs made from spun
glass are wonderfully light and fine
and the texture soft and beautiful. 1t
is easy to produce any shade desired,
while curls and waves can be manu-
featured at will to suit the fashion Of
the moment. The imitation is so
realistic and true to life that 1t is i'm
possible to detect the difference be-
tween it and real hair grown on the
head.
