HAVE YOU A COLD?

What one should eat when cold has been contracted is well worth considering at the present time. The first few days light laxative diet of low fuel value is usually considered the best. This should be followed by one of full fuel value and then as soon as the cold seems to be broken up'' one should eat a diet of higher fuel value than usual until the cold is gone. Butter, cream, bacon, olive and cod liver oil as well as liberal use of eggs, milk and fruit will be service able at this time. These menus from the United States Food Administra- tion may be helpful if anyone in the family has taken cold. First Few Days Eat Meals Such
 as These:
 Breakfast
 Oatmeal Cruel
 Hot Orangeade
 Lunch
 Milk Toast
 Stewed Prunes
 Dinner
 Chicken Broth Baked Potato Poached Egg
 Steamed Squash
 Lettuce Salad
 Apple Sauce

serious business in order, to have fashion which is appropriate to the spirit of the times.
 But there are many beautiful fa- ibrics that have already been manu- factured and which couldn't possibly be used for any other purpose than to aGorn the woman who has the means and the inclination to wear them. And there are many trained people whose livelihood depends on the trade of such women.
 And 50 it seems that it really should be perfectly ethical for the woman who has the means. to purchase lux urioUs accessories of clothing to pro vide employment to the woman who has the skill to make such things. No one is deprived of anything---and the worker who cannot readily find some ! other occupatio is kept from the hardship of jobless days.
 Cloth is to be avoided if we would assure enough for war needs. But of velvets there are a-plenty, and the rigid hand of conservation doesn't ex- 1 tend to Velvets and satins.
 It is the same with furs. They are expensive this year. it is true, but they aren't needed for any more pa triottc purposes than miladys ward robe.
 If she really needs a new evening wrap this winter. she could select nothing more regalIy beautiful than this sapphire blue model. Huge folds of velvet depend from the neck to the hem and the wide sleeves project from the body of the wrap. kimono fashion. Hung loosely from the fig ure, the coat is even of line, and very simple in it's lack of drapery. But with the movement of the arms, graceful diagonal sweeps of the hem come into view
 Huge chinchilla cuffs finish the sleeves, and a deep pointed collar of chinchilla fastens at the side An ad- ditional charming feature of this coat is its lining which occasionally is dis lclosed as the wrap swirls about. Elm erald green satin is yelled with blue chiffon. and introduces a variable tone in vivid relief to the solid sap Iphire blue of the wrap.
 No buttons or fastenings of any, kind are visible on this evening coat. lalthough there is a clasp under the collar that keeps the garment well fastened.

CH|L DREN HATE
 PILLS, CALOMEL
 AND CASTOR OIL
If cross, feverish constipat- ed, give California
 Syrup of Figs"

Look back at your childhood days. Remember the "dose" mother insisted on-castor oil, calomel, cathartics. How you hated them, how you fought against taking them.
 With oHr children it's different. Mothers who cling to the old form of physic simply don't realize what they do. The children's revolt is we'll founded. Their tender little "insides" are injured by them.
 If your child's stomach, liver and bowels need cleansing, give only deli cious California Syrup of Figs" Its action is positive, but gentle. Millions of mothers keep this harmless fruit laxative" handy; they know children love to take it; that it never fails to clean the liver and bowels and sweeten the stomach, and that a teaspoonfUl given today saves a sick child tomor- row.
 Ask your druggist for a bottle of California Syrup of Figs" which has full directions for babies. children of ei' ages and for grown-ups plainly on eacn bottle. Beware of commercials sold here. See that 1t Is made by California Fig Syrup Company" Re- fuse any other kind with contempt Adv.

USES FOR NEWSPAPERS
 AVOID GRIP.

One may get cold by sitting near windows that aren't tight. Fold news paper and put on window sill and up- per sashes or make bags and fill with stand. Have fresh air in room by having a window open, but make a screen out of an old clothes-horse covered with newspapers sewn or pasted together; you will have ar III room without the wind blowing ui- Tectly upon you. .;,
 If the kitchen floor (bare or oiI cloth on) is. cold, stand while oolilS your work on newspapers. .;,s

HINTS

When washing floors or doing any work where you have to get down on your knees, instead of the cushion which is so much trouble make a thick, soft, smooth pad of soft cheese cloth or old stocking-tops, and place inside the stocking where the weight of the body comes. This is good for heavy people and your cushion is all ways in place.
 Cheese may be kept moist and fresh a long time by wrapping it In cloth wrung out of vinegar, and then by placing the cheese in a paper bag and hanging it in a cool place.
 Although cotton waists are not supposed to be ironed, they are great ly improved if laid on a thick Turk ish towel and the edges pressed with a warm (not hot) iron.
 Keep two or three fruit jar rubbers about the r7frigerator. Lay one of them on top of the ice to set your plate or dish on. The latter will not slide off.

It's a moot question whether elab- crate evening wraps are in the best spirit nowadays
 On one hand. there are extremists who insis5 that there should be the most rigid economy in everything, and that no woman shall buy or order any garment that isn't absolutely in- dispensable. And who among us shall insist that life is insupportabIe without a brand new evening wrap this winter?
