Preparations for the New Home
By LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER.

impossible to give in detail the kind.
Of things to be included.
TTW requirements vary decidedly. Il
is easy to state in a general way the
essentials.
The household linens comprise the
chief articles that go into hope chest
although any articles that are laid away
for the brides home are eligible fol
contents also. Because q hope chest Is
such a convenient container for trous-
seau articles also, these are often con-
fused with the correct contents. There
are two separate groups OF articles
however-namely, household linens, etc.
and personal apparel.
HoiIsehold linens comprise sheets,
pillowcases, towels of many kinds, such
as glass and dish towels, hand towels,
bath towels, guest towels, ETC.; one or
two bath mats face cloths, also napery,
comprising tablecloths, napkins. doilles,
luncheon sets and all linens USED tor
Bureau covers and embroidered linens
come under the same heading. Linens
is q flexible name signifying genuine
linen, cotton goods and cotton ana
linen mixtures sometimes styleo unIoH
textiles.
A trousseau includes lingerie, frocks
and outer garments and every item OF
a wardrobe even to handbags, gloves
and other personal accessories. 1t Is in
the matter of costuming that specify
ing articles is most difficult. A society
girl absolutely needs many things, and
a great number more of each, than the
girl who lives a quiet life.
A bride to-be does not nave 10 puy
the furniture for the new home. IL
is expected that the man will provide
that. This is his province. But 1t Is
also expected that the girl will have
collected or fallen heir to some articles
of furniture and these she brings as
part of her contribution to the new
home. She may also provide the COOK
ing utensils and kitchen crockery.
It Is not to be expected that the man
will personally select the furniture and
the household furnishings even though
he pays for them. The girl presumably
has more leisure, and she makes selec-
tions. Moreover, 1t is she who knows
what will be needed for the kitchen
equipment for instance. 1t is wisdom
as well as convenience that makes a
man request the girls aid in selec-
lions. It is expected that the couple
together will choose the furniture.

Household Problems
BY BETSY cALLIsTER.

It may be that the reason why you
sometimes feel so weary at the end OF
a day of housewifely duties Is that all
day long you have been doing things
the hardest way. There are some
women who have q knack Of doing
things the simplest, easiest way, thus
expending less strength and nervous
force than the rest of us. Let's hope
that you are one Of these fortunate
ones.
Suppose, for instance. the screw top
of a glass Jar or bottle sticks and 1t
Is necessary to open the jar or bottle
at once. You need the contents for
don't succeed. You try to loosen it
by applying hot cloths. You are so
exasperated that you are tempted to
smash the bottle. If, however, you re-
member that a piece of Sandpaper
solves just such problems, and If you
have the piece of sandpaper, then you
need have had no difficulty. Just hold
the Sandpaper in the hand when you
try to unscrew the cover and you can
get the necessary grip.
If a glass stopper sticks, try dropping
little oil around the stopper and then
slowly warm the glass bottle. A good
way to warm it is to place 1t on
bread board in the oven-a very mod
crate Overland let it heat there a few
minutes. When 1t is warm, tap the
neck first on one side and then on the
other and the stopper will soon come
out.
If you can't find the icepick, you can
chip ice with a appointed darning

there is one bit Of face massage you
should learn, for it is very important.
Massage the temples. Pull your hair
back. If necessary, put on net or use

Use cream. Begin stroking the skin
gently from the outer edges of the eye
brows to the hair line, then from the
inner edges-that Is, just above the nose
and up to the hair line. When your
fingers reach the highest part OF the
stroke, take them away and begin again
80 you won't be pushing down as well
as up, you see. OF all massage motions,
I think this the most stimulating and
the most refreshing.
Also I think 1t about the most valu-
able. The stimulation from this seems
to affect other muscles, so that II only
this massage Is given, the face relaxes
and tired sagging muscles seem 70 pull
up into position.
OF course the next most obvious mas
sage motion Is from the corner Of the
mouth to the lobe Of the ear, and from
the noStril across under the eye to the
top Of the ear. This is for wrinkles
around the mouth, but this must be
gently done, for If your motions are
too strenuous you are apt to stretch
the muscles of the cheeks. Follow with
an ice rub.
David H.-The hairs that come out
when you massage your head should
come for they must be dead or loose,
and better out so they may be replaced
with healthier ones. Continue to use
the tonic and massage every day regard

In the tonic does not dissolve, and when
you apply the tonic to the scalp some
of this sulphur adheres acting as a
purifier for many hours afterward.
Esther M-There Is always some pos
sibility of bruising when you squeeze
out black head even though you use
one of the small mechanical instru-
ments for it. These bruises often become
scars that remain for months. With
the slower method of using cleansing
cream, scrubbing with warm water and
soap, and taking full hot baths al
over daily to keep the skin active, you
will be sure that you are advancing
toward a cleared skin and without any
scars to deal with later.

POLITICAL WAY

When Grimes became a candidate for
coroner his neighbors knew he was a
good and worthy skate, and yet they
said, "He will not do" They knew his
character was fine, his record was of
high renown, as coroner he'd surely
shine, and yet the neighbors turned
him down. They said, 1--WE fear his
tariff views are radical and quite un-
sound. If such officials we should
choose all sorts Of evils would abound.
The immigration question, too, is far
beyond his ken and scope; he'd bring
an Asiatic crew to ruin the Pacific
Slope. His sympathies are with the
rich, with people loaded down with
dimes; the poor man, digging In q
ditch, would get small service from old
Grimes" tried at times to make 1t
clear that all such spiels were sophis-
tries, for coroners don't have to steer
the ship of state through stormy seas.
If Grimes, said, should ask for work
as farm hand or at saving wood men,
once convinced he was no shirk, would
say, Get busy and make good" They
would not ask about his stand on
Muscle Shoals or Teapot Dome just so
he piled willing hand they'd bid him
bring the bacon home. II he should
wish to earn 10 cents at baling hay,
none would inquire about his views on
ornaments; he'd just get busy and per-
spire. I say to them in thunder tones,
"There's just one question worth our
while: Can Grimes sit on a heap Of
bones and hold an inquest with a
smile? If he can pull that stunt, by
jings, it matters not how he may stand
on Leagues of Nations or such things,
on taxes in foreign land" But sense
and logic cut no grass in politics. as all
men know. The sage's words are
sounding brass, as idle as the winds
that blow. WALT MASON.

PLAN COOPERATION ID SUBDUE KURDS
Turkey and Persia Negotiate
 Rebels Being BesieSed

Angora, Turkey, Aug Is P) - Negotiations designed to bring about cooperation between Turkey and Persia in repressing rebellious kur- dish tribesmen on the Persian Turk ish frontier, are proceeding at An gora and Teheran.
 Thus far the Persian government has declined to permit the passage of Turkish troops across the border into Persia or to cooperate in the use of troops against the tribesmen.
 The rebellious Kurds who have taken refuge in inaccessible parts of Mount Ararat still are encircled by Turkish troops and have made sev- eral attempts to escape through the Turkish lines but without success. Several attacks by the beleaguered Kurds were driven back.
 Partisans of the tribesmen also have tried to pierce the Turkish lines to bring aid to the beseiged forces, but these were driven off by the troops.

TRADING ON CURB
 SOMEWHAT DREARY
Admission Of Warner Bros.
 Rights EnliYens Tape

New York, Aug. IS (P-Trading on the curb was dreary today and prices shifted irregularly Admis- sion of Warner Bros. Pictures Rights enlivened the tape somewhat, but transactions in the familiar leaders were exceedingly light.
 Utilities displayed particular apathy and moved unevenly in a narrow range. Oils were heavy and some of the prominent specialties. as well as the more active investment com pany shares. inclined toward easi- ness. Several new lows for the year resulted from moderate offerings.
 Trading in Electric Bond & Share, which has been turning over briskly this week, dwindled although efforts to mark thS stock higher met with fair success during the rallies. The other utility holding company issues were dull and steady.
 The market in the industrials was thin. Light sales of Anglo Chilean Nitrate broke the price a couple of points, and the same was true of Walgreen, which dipped to new 1880 low. Noranda and Technicolor eased. Profit taking appeared in Mead Johnson but was readily ab- sorbed. Dow Chemical firmed from yesterdays new low.
 Cosden and Standard of Ohio were among the weak spots in the petroleum group both touching new minimums for the year. Cities Service sagged.
 The Warner Bros. picture rights to the prospective issue of common stock on one for four basis traded actively, ruling around 1 1-4 to 1 3-S.
 Short selling in the investment company list sent Golden Sachs down to it's years low. United Founders was also pressure.
