Asbestos Lumber Wood Substitute

How the development of asbestos

can be painted. sanded. stained and

requires no treatment for preserva-

cause it is indestructible.

been used with equal success in the

expressed themselves as believing
that the new product will go far to-

which is source of anxiety both to
our scientists and our government.

The Civil war veterans are well

The first effective effort to take
care of tDe ex-service men of the
World war was the enactment of
the Sweet bill by the Republican
Congress. which combined and CO.
ordinated all agencies handling ex-
service mems relief and aid into
one organization known as the Vet

has been enacted by Republicans.
Up to and including the appro-
priations for the current fiscal

appropriated $2,2S2,579,OOO for aid
and relief of ex-service men. The
amount of money the Republican
Congress has appropriated each
year for support of the Veterans

This season there are decided signs
that the slip-on member of the knitted
outerwear family will carry all be-
fore it. 1t will be remembered that
the sleeveless sweater enjoyed a
period of popularity in the sul~ner,
and it almost seems as if the slip-on,
in administering a rebuke, had caused
the pendulum to swing way over in the
opposite direction, and one sees more
slip-ons now than ever before.
Even late autumn days are not too
cool to go without coat il one is
provided with a slip-on, and so varied
are they in type it seems that one
would never tire of selecting them.
And then when the days prove too
chilly to sally forth uncoated, the
sweater is again the choice. 1t fits
smoothly under the jacket, and at the
same time provides just the desired
amount of warmth.
The slip-on is a sweater of so MANY
moods that it can keep pace with those
of its wearers. There is, for instance.
the mollair sweater, cut along straight,
youthful lines, which may be worn
with or without slender belt, accord
ing to the wishes of its wearer. Its
neckline landings are diversified, to
say the least. One style which is abb
solutely new and is meeting with
marked success, reflects the vogue for
things Russian with its neckline cut
round, and reaching to the base of the
throat. 1t is eminently suited for
cold weather wear. The closing, only
a few inches long. allows the sweater
to be easily slipped over the head.
Color is introduced in divers ways-in
striped landings which outline the
neck and trim the sleeves at the
wrists; and if there is a short side
opening, the striped handling is re-
peated. Camel color and various brown
shades continue to be favorites.

MILK

We might p~araphrase the advertisement 50 universally
observed in bakers windows and drum up a little business
for the milk man. milk is your best food. Drink more
of it."
Some of my ~neighbors look thin. They are far below
by one, and whisper "My good friend, You are looking tired
fool | should look like. Besides, my taking aside several in
order> to whisper my anxiety and my remedy, would look
as if I had developed a mania, and ought to be watched. So,
milk purveyors, I should like to express my anxiety,-and
suggest my r~emedy,-through this good paper:
Sometime ago there was a editorial in this column about
cause [ wrote it, but first I spent a good deal Of time proving
it in my own household, The family is thriving on sufficient
food, and few complaints about the heat are heard.
So, to resume the theme of that editorial, | would go on
with the subject Of milk. This is for the thin and hollow
checked. The martyrs who are reducing may pass on the
other side.
Guaranteed: an extra five pounds of good healthy avoir-
dupois in two weeks time, if you will eat regular meals three
times a day, and add a quart, or even two quarts, OF milk a
day. Two glasses at each meal will make almost two quarts
a day. You don't really need two glasses OF milk IL you
have eaten a hearty dinner, but for the lighter meals, you VIII
find that the two glasses disappear without any effort what
ever.
Watch out, if you try this added milk ration, that your
diet has sufficient green vegetables and fruit juices to coun-
teract the somewhat costive effect that so much milk often
produces. You can be just ordinarily watchful OF your diet
without making it a fetish and a bore to your nelghbors, and
it can be easily regulated.
But you will try the milk, won't you, my dear, hollow
checked neighbour
