jured the trade of Spanish pro-

prohibiting the cultivation OF
vines in the colonies.
However, it soon became i'm
possible to enforce this meas

dustry grew so rapidly that in
spite of it the Chilean wines
began to make serious inroads
in the market. previously en-

producers. A sales tax was
adopted to enforce the decree,

Win Favor
In about 1850 several var1e'
ties of French vines were intro"
duced into Chile, and did very
well. The industry now began
to really thrive, and prices be-
came more remunerative. The
first export of Chilean wines
was made in 1857. when small
quantities were shipped to the
countries along the Pacific
Coast.
At this time a certain amount
reached California, introduced
there by Chileans who had
gone in search of gold. Since
then the wines have won favor
in the European markets. espe-
cially in Germany, Belgium
and France.
The provinces of Talca'
Curico, Linares and Colchagua
produce the best known Chilean
wines. They are made from
choice grapes grown on vine
roots imported from the Bor-
deaux region in France.
The predominant red wines
are "Cabernet." "Merlot." and
Got" The white are 'MuSca-
tel" and "Semillon. Good dry
champagnes, greatly appreciated
by connoisseurs complete the
list.
Usual Procedure
These would all be served &C.
cording to the usual procedure,
red wines with roasts and game,
white with fish, and champagne
with delicate fowl or white
meat, or as a dessert wine.
I have been privileged to taste
some of the Chilean wines. and
I am inclined to think that it is
because they are so good that
we, in this country, were not
favored with them before.
They are extraordinarily de-
licious, and I do not blame the
people of Chile for consuming
more than 80 per cent of their
national production! What bet
ter proof of the quality and
taste than that? Chileans ap-
pear to ask, with Omar, What
half so precious can the winners

Soap prices vary, according to
the costliness of the perfume

There's a story in pictures for

tells how to conserve space,
make work easier and serve
a dinner without maid, with a
maximum of charm and a mini
mum of trouble.
All this is accomplished by
the new "dineX," and much
more. It's a simple piece of
furniture which may be used as
bookcase, shelves for china.

Let's suppose you're having
guests for dinner, and you have
only a one-room apartment
with kitchen. Wheel your dinex
into the kitchen. Set the table
on the shelves. ahead of time.
At the last minute, wheel in
your cabinet. With a simple
movement of a lever the shelves
all work together into a table,
and in place. The table is set,
even with fruit cocktail or soup
already on. Serve your dinner.
Press the lever again. roll the
cabinet into the kitchen. and
the living room is ready for the
evening without the messy
clearing of dishes.

niture comes in many finishes.

The Beauty Reporter

After a tiresome day, a hot
bath, with the aroma you pre-
fer, does wonders toward help
ing you start life anew. You
can lie back in your bath and
feel all your worries floating
away.
The bath is the real founda-
ton of the beauty ritual. What
the appetizer is to a dinner,
so is the bath to the evening
or morning toilet. With all the
modern bath accessories, dainty
and fragrant, the bath is now
an ideal place in which to
luxuriate. Lather generously,
scrub vigorously, and you step
out fresh and fragrant as a
flower-just in the mood to
look your loveliest and to wear
your most fascinating frock
with devastating effect.
If you have not time for a
tub bath, never neglect your
shower. The water, of course,
must not be too hot and you
must not remain too long under
a cold shower just long
enough for the proper reaction.
Don't let the cold-water shower
run over the body all at once.
Dash the cold water over your
face, then step under the shower
and let Ohe water flow first on
the front and then on the back
of your body. Let the water
pelt on the back Of your neck,
warm first, then cold. to- relax
taut nerves. Then stretch each
leg under the shower, first front
ward, then backward, and let
the cold water pelt on the soles
Of your feet and on the nerve
centers at the back of your
knees. Finally, one last dash Of
cold water on your face. And
have two big towels ready; one
to remove moisture, the other
for a friction rub.
Don't slight the soap and
brush part of a shower bath.
Since the bath should be the
very quintessence of daintiness,

Household Hints
Making DOughnuts


If you are attempting to
make doughnuts for the first
time, select a deep heavy kettle
of some sort in which to fry
them. Then use enough hot
fat or oil so that when drop
ped in they go first to the
bottom and then up to the top.
In this way they are COM
pletely immersed in the fat.
Never attempt to fry them in
only a half an inch or so of
fat or you will have a fat
soaked doughnut as a result.

William and Pal
Hollywood
Bound
By LIZ HUME

A cousin Of the famous
movie comedian, Edward Ever
EFT Horton, young William
Horton, of washington, aged
nine, and his police dog, Pal,
are movie aspirants.
The lad has just mailed a
duplicate Of the photo shown
on this page to his cousin in
Hollywood. hoping that he and
his pet have chance of being
signed" by one of the cinema
bigshots.
Maybe Pal will reach the
heights once attained by the
famous Rim Tin Tin, now de-
ceased, whose son is carrying
on in his place. Pal is an
American Kennel Club regis
terite, under the name 'Billy's
Par'-is four years old and ex-
tremely intelligent.
Judging from the way he is
registering esgerness in this
picture, his success in the
cinema should be assured.
At any rate. we sincerely
hope that young William and
his Pal will make the grade and
that Cousin Edward will do
right by them.
This popular breed of dog has
at various times been known as
the police dog, French police
dog, Alsatian wolf dog and is
now registered simply as shep-
herd.
The German shepherd has
been definitely recognized as a
breed for the past rs years and
there are records which point
to their existence in Alsace in
much their present form, for
1000 years.
There is no infusion of wolf
blood in the modern shepherd
and contrary to the general be-
lief. they are no more closely
related to the wolf than any Of
the other pastoral breeds.
The Madison, N. j., outdoor
dog show has become a mecca
for the fancy of this breed.
Here the shepherds have been
judged by the leading European
and American authorities in
commodious rings affording
every opportunity for correctly
estimating the mentality, con-
formation and action of the
dogs brought before them. The
breed, therefore, is on a sounder
basis than ever before and there
is q better understanding Of
their merits throughout the
country.
If you have q good picture
of your pet, Liz Hume invites
you to send it in for use in
this column. No pictures re-
turned.
It is also very probable that
some of your experiences would
be Of interest and value to
other owners Of pets. Address
