Sanitary Toilet Articles

TT YOU could only once look at
your powder puff and comb and
brush under a powerful microscope,
it would never again be necessary
for me to urge absolute sanitation
as to your toilet articles. For you
would see millions of germs. Reli-
able hairdressers always use
brushes that may be washed after
using ON each client, brushes that
have backs which will not be ruined
by a sufficient amount of antiseptic
being added to the rinsing water.
You may have very exquisite
combs and brushes to adorn your
dressing table, or for the guest
room. But the ones used daily
should be very, very washable.
Such brushes are inexpensive, and
take only a few seconds to wash
daily. Rinse with a disinfectant,
and leave on a sunny window ledge
to dry.
The pesky little germs breed so
fast that if you have left your comb
and brush unwashed for a week,
probably some of those germs are
great-great- by the end
Of the week, and are living in the
midst of colonies of descendants.
As for the powder puff, we think
of them as something fluffy and
dainty-but they so often aren't!
In fact, it is very decided minor
ity of the powder puffs that you see
friends take from their handbags or
vanity cases which have even the
slightest claim to pristine fresh
ness.
/ wish that all of you would buy
at least six powder puffs at the
time-three small ones, and three
large ones. The kind that are soft
and velvety. When you have used
one a few days take new one out,
and thoroughly wash the used one
in warm water and white soap,
TlllS6, anu lcCNS II lI JIc SUN w vi
The sun is a wonderful germ slayer.
With inexpensive tissues to re-
move creams and lotions from your
skins, with a bottle of ammonia or
mild disinfectant in every bath
room, it is so easy to be sanitary as
to skin and hair treatments. Why
risk continued dandruff and rashes?
If a friend says, Lend me your pow
der puff, I've left mine at home"
lend it, if you must, but tuck it in
to a side pocket until you can take
it home and wash it! That friend
is a familiar note to all of you. We
meet her often-everywhere. But
YOU owe it to your skin and hair
health to be as fastidious in the loan
of a powder puffs or a comb and
brush-as you would in the loan Of
a tooth brush!

Loan Exhorters

The term "Four-Minute Speakers"
was coined during the World war.
They were men and women who
gave their services to the govern
ment for the purpose of making
speeches in behalf of the Liberty
and Victory loans. They were so
called because they addressed audi
ences assembled for other purposes,
such as theatrical performances,
and their time was limited to four
minutes.

ON THE FLOOR

l. Wide awake ! seem to be,
Lying quiet, counting sheep,
Nothing seems to make me sleep,
Far from noises Of the town,
In a bed as soft as down,
Yet l roll and toss about;
Here's what | can't figure out:
Then | think about the floor,
Where l slept in days of yOre,
Where | used TO slumber some
Night the company would come,
Then our house was much too small,
Few the beds, to hold them all,
And we children, with delight,
Slept upon the floor that night.
Blanket, pillow, these find,
And, upon the floor reclined,
Fall asleep, and wake at three
Glad again a bed TO see,
Sleep again, and waken lame,
Just as certain just the same
I'd have stayed awake till four
If l hadn't tried the floor.

FRENCH DRESSING

THE basic ingredients of French
l. dressing are oil, vinegar, salt
and pepper and with these ingredi-
ents well mixed you need nothing
more to dress your various salads.
Still for the sake of variety or to
make use of favorite flavors, a va
riety of seasoning may be added. If
you want good French dressing al
ways use first rate oil. If you can
not afford olive oil get the best
grade of peanut oil, corn oil or cot
ton seed oil, which are decidedly
better than second rate olive oil.
There should always be at least
twice as much oil as vinegar.
One recipe for a complicated
French dressing calls for a tea
spoonful each of sugar and ground
mustard and salt, mixed we'll to-
gether, with a saltspoonful of pap
rika and some cayenne pepper To
this is added half a cupful of oil,
very slowly, and then two table
spoonfuls of vinegar. The mixture
should be constantly beaten. Then
another half cupful of oil and an
other two tablespoonfuls of vinegar
are added. beaten thoroughly the
while. The dressing is then put in
bottle and kept on ice until it is
gone. Each time 1t is used it is

felt too heavy to lift. He was so
short of breath that he had a pain
in his side, the same sort of pain
that you sometimes have when you
run very long and very hard. Worse
still, his heart was humping from
fear and terror till it seemed as if
it must burst, and not one little raw
of hope did Peter have to give him
courage. He knew that somewhere
behind him, drawing nearer with
every jump, was Shadow the Weasel.
and that when Shadow should
catch him, then-well, it was best
not to think about what would hap
pen then.
At last Peter felt that he just
had to rest. He couldn't run anoth-
er step. Right in front of him was
a pile Of snow-covered brush. He
craWled under this, and there he
squatted painting for breath, and
with a terrible fear in his eyes.
watching his back tracks for
Shadow the Weasel. Now it Just
happened that Peter had no more
than crawled under that pile of
brush than HOOty the Owl came
sailing over the Green Forest on
silent wings, like a black shadow in
the moonlight.
Close by the pile of brush under
which Peter was hiding was a tall
dead tree, and right on the top of
this HOOty alighted and sat perfect
ly still and very straight. In fact,
he meant to. 1t was one of HOOty's
watch towers. He had arrived Just
too late to see Peter crawl under
the brush, and he came so silently
that Peter didn't hear him. Neither
did Peter see him.
Peter had watched sharply, but
had seen nothing, when suddenly
Hooty swoOped down right in front
of where Peter was hiding. 1t was
so sudden and unexpected that
Peter swallowed his breath and al
most choked. There was an angry
splitting sound, and then Peter saw
what looked like some of the snow
itself bound off to one side. 1t was
Shadow, and his coat was pure
white. Again HoOty swooped and
Shadow lodged. Then he turned
and darted into a hole in q hollow
log while Hooty went back to his
watch tower. Then Peter sighed.
1t was a sigh of great relief. AS
long as HOoty sat there Shadow
would not dare come out of his re-
treat in the hollow log, and that
meant that he, Peter would have
time to rest and regain his breath.
HOoty had saved his life for a while,
anyway, for if he hadn't swooped at
Shadow just when he did, and so
prevented him from reaching the
pile of brush, Peter would have
been no more by this time For the
first time in all his life Peter felt
kindly toward HoOty the Owl. Per-
haps now he might get away after
all.

LONDON, Mar. 31. - Featured stories on the leading newspapers in England were stories relating Speaker John Gamers clarion call in the Senate in which he pleaded that his colleagues use every effort to secure and approve legislation which would balance the budget and save the nation from one of the greatest panics in years.
