Home and Kitchen
Suggestions

Pour hot water over onions allow
them to remain for a few minutes,
then drain and pour cold water over
them. The skins can then he easily
removed.
If food is too salty, place a wet
cloth over the top of the vessel which
is cooking. The steam will draw the
salt into the cloth.
When baking, sprinkle little salt
in the oven directly under the bak-
ing pans. 1t prevents scorching.
Place an egg in a pan of water.
IL fresh, it will lie on its side. If
few days old, it will tilt upwards.
If stale, it will stand on end. If very
old, it will float.
The longevity of net curtains may
be furthered in washing processes if.
when they are taken down, they are
folded and refolded, laid in the tub
and washed without unfolding.
If they are rinsed in cold water
and soaked over night in strong suds
before laundering very little wash
ing will be necessary.
If starch is also omitted it will
add to both the beauty and life of
the curtains.

Helpful Hints Toward Beauty

X. C. L.: Brush your hair every
morning and night, and brush quite
vigorously. This cleans the scalp.
prevents dandruff, and stimulates
the growth of the hair. II should
be shampooed every two weeks, or as
often as it becomes dirty,
Worried; For hair that is thin and
falling, brush it vigorously for five
minutes and then use the following
tonic on il nightly, massaging it into
the scalp with the fingertips: Resor-
Gin, 45 grains; glycerin, ounce; and
equal parts of water and alcohol to
fill six ounce bottle. Rub with the
fingertips until you produce a warm
feeling of life. a sense of warmth in
the scalp.
c. r.: It is against the rules of
this department to pass comments
on any proprietary articles.
Helen J.: It is most difficult to
add weight to the face without TAX
ing a course of adding weight to the
whole body. When one adds weight
her face naturally becomes plump. II
is possible you could stand to increase
your weight.

Miss Dolly: The well-groomed wo-
man doesn't let any hair show un-
der her hat at the nape of her neck /!
She never lets her stockings wrin-
kle at the back of her ankle!
She never wears her hat tilted to
one side or the other.
A gown may cost $15 and still be
smartly worn IL the wearer is careful
of these three tiny details. II she is
not observant enough to know how
she looks from the back-then all
the expensive gowns in Paris will not
give her a well groomed air.
P. c., Undernutrition is the most
common cause of thinness. You must
eat fattening foods. An improved
diet and a hygienic life will increase
your weight.
Meta, You are too young for a
strenuous diet. You may eliminate
candy, sweets, rich desserts, from
your diet and eat sparingly of bread.
Then do not eat between meals.
M. r. T.: For development of the
lower part of the BODY this leg rails
ing exercise is excellent: Stand with
back up to a chair and hands clasp
ing the chair, back bent slightly
backward. Raise the right knee as
high as possible. Repeat the move
ment five times with the right knee,
then five times with the left knee
gradually increasing the number of
times.
A
round face should not allow her ears
to show, as IL will add breadth to the
face, and a woman who has high
cheek bones but narrow face should
not show her ears. In showing your
ears, be sure to look at your profile
in the mirror. Some people look well
from the front, but are most unat-
tractive if viewed from the side.
k. K. c.: Lack of fresh air and a
monotonous diet are the reason for
pallor, as a rule. You must get out
into the fresh air and learn to
breathe deeply. Get plenty of exer-
else. Include in your diet fresh,
green vegetables and fruits, and
drink milk.
II. s. c.; The stiffness of your
hair brush depends upon the sensi-
tiveness of the scalp. It should be
stiff enough to allow you to brush
the hair vigorously without injury to
the scalp or hair. Both brush and
comb may be kept clean by frequent
washings in soap and water to which
little ammonia has been added. Let
no one else use them.

NEW ENGLAND IS
 DIETING SOUTH
Industries Developing Despite
 Competition

Springfield, Mass, Nov. 1G.--UF) -Industrial New England is deNcl- oping rapidly despite southern com- petition, according to q report to- day from the New England councils committee on public relations and community organization.
 The report, which will be discuss cd at the New England conference here tomorrow, declared that New England was gaining more indus tries and employing more people than lt was losing either through business failures or removal of in dustries 10 other sections of the country,
 The committees conclusion was based on the first study ever made Of migration of industry 10 and from New England.
 Replies to a qucstionnairc sent to $40 chambers Of commcrce and boards of trade in New England show that 191 communities gained 415 new industries in 1926. and lost only go industries in that period, ' the report said.
 "The total number Of employees in the industries gained is 17.966, and in those lost there were 72G0.
 "Of the 90 industries lost by New England communities in 1926, q were business failures and 1l9 nov ed to other localities. Of these 119 that moved, only seven went to points outside New England. There were 25 industries that came from other sections to New England, one each from New Jersey and Ohio and the rcPaindcr from New York"
 The impression in some sections of the country that New England was losing heavily in industries" was made possible by the fact that the loss of a few outstanding industries was widely advertised" the report said.

Average Person Actually Sleeps
Eleven Minutes A Night
Physician, After Years Experiment Concludes Edison Has
Mastered Art of Resting Better Than Any One
Else Exercise Helps

With his four hours of almost
perfect sleep during the night and
considering his several maps during
the day, Thomas A. Edison sleeps
more than most of us, because the
average person has only eleven
minutes actual sleep during the
night, declares DR.. Alfred p. Haake,
of New York, who is vacationing
in Atlantic City. Dr. Haake has
: been conducting series. of expert
ments on sleep for the purpose of
determining what conduces proper
sleep.
After year of experiment, we
have found that on the average a
man lies perfectly still only eleven
minutes a night said DR.. Haake.
That means only eleven minutes
of perfect sleep, for restlessness
and sleeplessness are closely re-
lated. Edison, who goes to bed for
only four hours, but who also doz-
es several times during the day
relaxes more completely than al
most anyone else. He has conquer
ed sleep. He has learned how to
sleep, while the rest of mankind,
almost without exception, is still
experimenting in sleep"
DR.. Haake continued to say that
a man who has a troubled mind
does not sleep even eleven minutes,
that a man i'll love is affected yir
tually the same way; that heavy
exercise, instead of inducing COM
plete rest, only deadens the nerves
to the extent that one is not con-
scious of the restlessness of his
body. He concluded by saying eX
periments so far prove that mild
exercise in fresh air induces the
best sleep.

The Prosperity of
Jabez
By H. IRVING KING

CIT IS, indeed, a long lane that
has no turning" thought ia
bez Martin grimly. as he rode
along the country road, bound for
the farmStead of his lifelong en-
emy. Mathew Scott. Mathew and
he had been at school together
and had fought. even as little boys.
Then they had grown up and had
courted the same girl and Mathew
had married her. Jabez never mar
ried. He devoted the rest of his
life to making money-and hating
his successful rival. And Mathew
had prospered. too; though not to
the same extent as Jabez Mathew
had gone in for apple raising and,
everybody said, had made a for
tune.
The prosperity of Jabez had
come from cultlvating mortgages
and making loans at 10 per cent.
Also from an uncanny instinct he
possessed with regard to invest
ment in stocks. He had an office
in the city and spent his time there,
