Play Small Paris

Tn reply to Margaret T., I would sug- gest she secure position playing small parts in good dramatic company. Some of these parts are so small and the sal aries so slight no experienced woman would accept them. but the training for a beginner is better than any dramatic school could possibly give, not to mention the cost of a course at reputable school. Another valuable advantage is that producer won't leave you in doubt long as to whether or not you have made a mistake in choosing a career. If Margaret T. lives in a city her problem Is simple, but if she lives out of town l wouldn't know how to advise her Her ability to get into moving pictures de- bends entirely on what kind of picture she takes. Her personality counts so much in all lines of stage work that it is hard to advise her at all. If she wants to go on the stage badly enough she'll get there even though the whole city conspire to keep her off, I know! B. M co

clude the air. It would seem that to resilver a mirror is really trade. hardly to be understood or undertaken with out experience or the determination to gain proficiency. It seems hardly worth while for the restoration of a single glass to go to the bother, unless one likes to dabble and has a liking for experi- ments. It may be worth while. however to renew a slight blemish or to patch mirror. Lay it face downward on a smooth surface and prepare the dam aged parts by rubbing it with mercury Lay a sheet of paper over it and place over it weight having perfectly smooth surface and heavyeenough to press it down tightly. Allow the mirror to lie in this position for day or two, when the foil will adhere to it. One may re- move the silver from a broken glass to renew or patch another The quantity of mercury needed is three drams for each square foot of foil. Pure quicksilver forms in little balls and rolls all about a smooth surface. Any stickiness is sign of adulteration. Contact with other metals ruins mercury or greatly lessens it's value.

Saves Time and Expense

'As suggested by L. N. L..s unbleached curtains are inexpensive, and it is pos sible to have an extra set so that no room need be without curtains during the cleaning process. We have curtains that have been in constant use for more than a year. and they are still in good condition. They have been laundered fre- quently both at home and with the flat work that Is sent out, and our windows have always looked dainty and clean and attractive We use the same cur taiins throughout the apartment and find we can get the maximum amount of light and air and sunshine into our rooms, as they may be pushed back to the easing or spread out to cover the entire window space at will. The scheme for curtaining our windows has been such a saving to us, both in time and in ex- pense, that I have wanted to tell other busy housekeepers about 1t. and the let ter published in the Corner gives me the opportunity for doing so B. c.
