A few suggestions about buying
antiques may not come amiss. Unlike
other shopkeepers, those who sell
antiques have to be catered to by their
clientele quite as much as the clientele
has to be pleased by the shopkeeper
Therefore appreciate the wares rather
than disparage them. Never get into
a discussion with the man or woman
running the place.
He feels that he knows his business
and 1t takes q collector of the connois-
seur type to be able to argyle convinc-
ingly with him-and he seldom If ever
does. He knows better. Keep quiet
If you do not agree with him and
quickly turn the attention to some
thing else about which you can say
something agreeable.
1t is not necessary to unduly praise
an article that you intend to buy any
more than 1t Is necessary to run 1t
down. II the shopkeeper Is sizing
up your purse with an eye to getting
q high price he is .unwise, for paying
more than a thing is worth is not an
incentive to further shopping at any
store It does sometimes happen that
a shopkeeper Is thus unwise, however.
The customer should size up the shop
keeper as well as he the customer.
Since the only way q person can
find articles amid the vast array OF
antiques and would-be antiques Is to
be able to browse around shops, 1t Is
essential for the customer TO show
pleasure in so doing and thus be well
come whenever opportunity presents to

Weight.


Dear Doctor: Is there any help
for me? My family history: My name
is SIimmy Showbones. and I married
Fannie Fattenuf, who, when bride
was known as Really Ritesize. ! am
some past so years. in fairly good
health, but IS pounds underweight, and
Fannie thinks more meat on my bones
would better become my style of beauty.
Now, If I've lived to this age with a
handicap of IS pounds underweight,
guess there is nothing to worry about,
except Fannie's opinion. (And she's
reducing. Been on diet for six months
and lost % ounces.)
"As to sugar for one of my condition
and habits. should the equivalent Of
tablespoon of cane sugar three times a
day be about right? Would only one
tablespoonful of sugar q day be enough
for me? And would 1t be all right for
me to substitute about two dozen pea
nuts for two eggs or its equivalent in
meat (peanuts giving fat and protein) :?
Now. I understand that you get
seven million letters a day and can
answer only six million. It am about
to pass out, please send me an s. @. s.

Your. method Of mentally doing out
your sugar to the amount Of one table,
spoonful day and your peanuts to two
dozen is very significant. I'll wager
that Fannie doesn't think Of sugar and
peanuts in those quantities.

the rounds were about the size of
whole slice. when she used triangles
or fingers she always removed the
crusts.
The bread was toasted tightly on
one side only. and buttered generously
on the untoasted side after 1t was
taken from the toaster.
Then she put small amount OF chilli
sauce on each buttered piece. Chill
sauce is quite thick. but even so, care
was taken not to put on so much that
1t ran over the edges in messy fashion.
On top Of the chilli sauce was put
heavy sprinkling OF cheese already
grated. Sometimes she cut thin slices
Of cheese and laid those on top. The
rounds of bread were put under the
broiler flame and toasted until the
cheese began to melt and the red chilli
sauce peeped through. Then the rounds
were served Immediately. They were
pretty to look at. and having been only
lightly toasted they were not difficult
to eat.
