Home and Scattered Families
BIZ LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER

When sons and daughters who have
lived away from home for some time
have opportunity to visit their parents
the occasion does not always prove as
happy as it should.
After an absence perhaps OF years
the returning members OF the 1amlly
would find their greatest pleasure In
slipping into their old grooves with as
little commotion as possible.
Contrary to promoting such state
of affairs, the senior members OF the
household make preparations SO elaoo-
rate that the ome-comers are often
more embarrassed than delighted By
them. The moment of returning be-
comes one of pomp and state rather
than of the coveted simplicity.
1t Is q deprivation to mother whose
son has been in other parts of the
world not to go to the greatest lengths
to surround his home coming with
much solicitude. Women are less en-
both 1t is hardly the thing for which
they have returned. 1t is an art to
show the right degree of casualneSs and
of interest at such a time.
The returning members of the family
whose ways Of living and probably o.
thinking have altered since the earlier
days when they lived at home, have
their part to contribute to the success
full visit, for they must remember that
their altered outlook may be at variance
with many long-held beliefs of the rest
of the family, and that to preserve
family harmony 1t may be we'll to be
somewhat guarded. Ideas which have
taken a number of years to evolve will
sound radical to those who have not
been present to watch the period of
growth. They were not accepted at
once by the young home-comers, nor
should the latter expect them to be by
their more conservative parents.

the other side. France, Germany and
other countries are contributing 70 the
demand for foreign edihles. Imported
cheese is a delicacy sought by many
who desire novelties for the table. These
imported articles are rather higher IN
price, but there are those who are will
ing to pay the price for something dill
ferent.
Many facetious remarks have been
made concerning the present habit OF
eating canned food. Wives are sup
posed to be seeking the easiest way to
prepare meals, but this is not true. The
old American dinner is still with us and
will remain an institution. The house
wife may have much of q few foods OF
a little of many on her menu. This, OF
course, is q matter of the family taste.
Whatever her method, she will find
plenty to choose from at the stores and
markets these days

at prices about the same as they were
last week. Here are some: California

sive cough seem like the beginning Of
some terrible disease. They then sell
bot les and bottles of stuff at hundreds
or even thousands OF per cent OF profit.
When in the course of nature people
felt better they ascribed it tn the medi-
cine which really had nothing to do
with it. Some of the worst offenders
I know are among the medicines and
soaps to reduce fat. The bureau of
investigation of the American Medical
Association has described several of
these by saying they would reduce the
national debt just as effectively as they
would reduce the weight of an obese
person"
Hair dyes are other offenders. TONES
to improve digestion and make the ALI
mentary system antiseptic. diabetes
cures are others. In fact a list of Of
tenders yards long could be made out.
The best that can be said of many of
them is that for a tiny fraction of the
price you could mix the stuff together
yourself. The moral is: buy nothing
you don't know all about.

treatment will produce corns. Dust a

after the bath.
Excessive perspiration or careless dry

places between the toes. In such case
saturate small squares of cheesecloth
with spirits Of camphor and adjust

on the toes or other part Of the foot,
remove the hardened surfaces by the
frequent use of coarse pumice stone
or a sandstone file that druggists sell
for the purpose. This method is safer
than using a knife or razor to cut and
is much more effective. When you have
made the corns smooth rub them with
vaseline, sweet OIL cold cream, or some
other lubricant that will soften the skin
and make 1t more normal. Hard corns
can be removed entirely by this method,
but do not use the file on sore places or
soft corns.

BEAUTY CHATS

Being a rich country suppose 1t
does not matter If We throw sway a
lot Of money. For most certa MY We
spend more money on most thoroughly
useless articles than any other country
in the world. Fortunately we have such
strict laws about the purity Of foods and
drugs that we need fear nothing worse
than wasting our money whenever we're
taken In by attractive claims. If you
buy white hare as fox or dyed wood
chuck as either mink or skunk it viii
harm nothing but your pocket book. If
your will buy foods in packages that
please the eye, YOU mustn't mind If YOU
don't get as much for your money as
though you bought the raw food and
had it prepared yourself.
But where you must be most careful
is in the selection of patent medicines
and things you put on your face. The
manufacturers of many patent medi-
cines play on the great fear ill of us
have Of being Ill. There GER ingen-
