The Permanent Wave Gland

1AC CLI1l0llCl4I w o"S SAAoAAA
a DISCOVERY that might easily
L n save American women millions
of dollars every year has been re-
ported from Prospect, Conn, by
Carl Louis Morrison, artist and cor
respondent for the Waterbury
(Conn.) Republican. According to
Mr.. Morrison, Mrs. Lester Green of
Prospect and her daughter have
permanent waves that are the envy
of the neighborhood.
1t seems that Lester Green, while
butchering, discovered a minute
gland which produced fluid re-
SpOnsible for the curl or kink in a
pigs tail This fluid, when eX-
tracted, diluted with water and
rubbed on the hair produced wave
for Mrs. Green and his daughter
that not only promised to have
lasting qualities but also defies
rain. In fact, shampooing only
freshens it and makes it more po-
tent.
Mr.. Green visualizes great possi-
bilities for this magic fluid. He be-
lieves that its greatest value will
be demonstrated in manufacturing
bed springs. He says that by i'm
mersing steel or brass wire in the
solution it coils Immediately into
a spring and he predicts that his
discovery may revolutionize the bed
spring manufacturing business. So
far he has not patented the proc
ess and anyone who wants to try 1t
and make their own bed springs is
welcome to do so.

Benefits From Forests

The benefits from forests are
many. The most important are
Protection from soil erosion; reten-
ton of rainfall by the spongy layer
of leaf mold on the forest floor !;
lessening of the occurrence of
floods; publication of the air by
the inhalation of carbon dioxide
and eXhalatiOn of oxygen by the
leaves of the trees; Improvement
of fishing and hunting; the profita-
Bile use of lands which are Of no

Comparative Gas MILEAGE

Those who would drive at an ex-
cessive rate of speed must expect to
pay for the privilege, judging from
tests conducted by the American Au-
tOmObile association. Different makes
of cars were tested at various speeds,
and the ratio of gas and oil consump-
ton speed was found to be about the
same. An automobile which goes 1S
miles on a gallon of gasoline at 30
miles per hour will go but u at 60
and at so. Oil consumption is sew

known person to be sick for
many months with weakness Of the
heart as a result of taking anti-fat
remedies. Courses Of treatment for
reduction of weight should be un-
dertaken only under the care of a
skillful physician"
Cutting down Of liquids Is an i'm
portant part of dieting. The total
quantity of food should be kept
down to the lowest possible point
without making the patient weak.
Cutting down fluids with meals
means that not more than a small
cup of water or tea or coffee should
be taken at any one meal.
Soup and Sugar Taboo.
Soups of all kinds should be for
hidden. Sugar should be prohibited,
and fat used sparingly. Fresh fruit
and green vegetables, such as grow
above ground, are allowed"
When the appetite is very hearty,
a little fatty food will often satisfy
much more quickly than anything
else and does less harm than an
excess of bread or other starchy
food.
Four rules for those wishing to re-
duce weight are suggested by Doc
tor Bishop:
1. Do not drink water within an
hour or two before or after meals.
2. Eat slowly; chew the food
thoroughly.
3. Do not have any more than
three courses or five kinds of food
at any one meal.
4. Eat mOderately-not to satisfy.
Instead of using drugs, the eat
ing of mountaineering foods and
avoiding the fattening food will
bring satisfactory results In 90 per
cent of overweight cases.

reduce weight: Fish, eggs, meat,

Acting Controller Cen.
eraI Says Plan You'd

It looks like the plan Of the
National Park Service to permit field
employees to embark on sort Of
light program in auto
trailers has been snagged.
Some of those workers who pass
much of their time in the wilds had
thought of procuring trailers for the
Government cars they use, and just
carry all the comforts of home right
along with them.
Secretary of the Interior Ickes,
favorably inclined, took up the matter
with Acting Controller General Elliott.
This department" he wrote. feels
that the attaching Of a modern trailer
to a Government car Is justified in
cases where suitable accommodations
are not available without large
expenditure of time in going to and
from work over roads frequently rem
dered impossible by inclement
weather. The increased cost of opera
ton and maintenance of the Govern
ment car, If any, due to the elinina-
ton of that travel necessitated by
seeking accommodations, would be
inconsequential and would be offset
administratively by reduction in the
amount Of per diem allowed the
employees"
Elliott, in a decision yesterday, said
1t would probably be all right for the
employees to use the trailers. but-"the
payments of any per diem while an
employe occupies his own trailer
would apparently have to be mega
tived."
So unless Elliott can be out-argued.
there will be no gypsying.
