'0LD MASTER IN DEMAND,
ENGLISH DEALERS SAY
BY the Associated Press.

LONDON, March A. English
art dealers say it Is much easier to
sell a valuable painting for 5000
pounds than to sell first-class mod
ern work for f25.
There is a we'll defined market for
the "Old Master" both in England
and the United States. Dealers and
collectors grab every "Old Master"
that appears in the market.
The work of established modern
painters sell much less quickly and
canvases picked out by critics for
special praise often fail to find
buyers for Is months or years.
English modern artists are, as
rule. even less fortunate than Amer
tcans in disposing of their work.

If these organizations would devote
their energies to the greater purpose
of introducing proper courses of in

instruction. into the public schools,
we could face the specter of cancer
with far more confidence. The thing
that appeals to the untutored layman
and misleads him. often to his undo

secrecy from. the problem is by
proper education. We can't hope to

a cancer publicity campaign. 1t is too

BEAUTY CHATS
Lemons.

Lemons enter into any number Of
beauty preparations and. IL they are
used properly, they will save you quite
a little money.
For instance, if you want a bleach
for your hands or arms, the very best
kind you can have would be mix.
ture of one.third glycerine, one-third
rose water Tor boiler water. If you
must economize, only it Is net so nice)
and one-third strained lemon juice
You can keep this in bottle indefii-
nitely and use it when you want. If
it seems a little sticky, instead of
using third rose water, use half
that amount and the other half
cologne: in other words, a sixth rose
water and a sixth cologne. the two
making a third of the whole amount
of the bleach.
Or, if you want something only for
your nails, lemon juice full strength
is not to be surpassed. You simply
squeeze out the lemon. keep the juice
in a small bottle. and when you want
bleach, dip in the end of your
orangewood stick and thoroughly wet
the nails around the edges and under
meath. II there are stains on the skin
around the nails, put lemon juice on
them, too. Then wash it off. as it is
very drying. Put cold cream around
the nails and Thea push back the cuti-
Gle. One great advantage of lemon
juice is that it keeps the cuticle from
growing as fast as it normally would.
If your skin will stand full-strength
lemon juice without smarting, rub it
over your face as a freckle or sunburn
treatment. If it won't. keep on dilut-
ing it down with water until it doesn't t
burn you. Let it stay on the skin 10
minutes, then wash off with ordinary
