TESTED RECIPES

Yes, hard guys may like their fried eggs, but they don't want them tough. Lay strips bacon on cold iron frying pan. Slowly heat the pan, pouring off grease as 1t melts and turning the bacon regularly to keep it from curling. When half coked, pour of the grease and re- move pan from fire. Break 2 eggs carefully right over the bacon strips. Return to fire, and cook eggs slowly until the yolks are set. This is a bacon and egg recipe which should be written across the top of every. marriage license.
 "Never boil a hard-boiled egg" is another bit of egg lore important to the happiness of any wifely cook. Place the eggs in pan of cold wa ter. Place over low afime, bring ing the water slowly up to the point just below boiling.- Never let 1t get higher. Cook the eggs in that under boiling water for half an hour. Drain and plunge into cold water to make peeling easier. When in doubt, serve eggs-the 100 per cent value for your budget money, But don't destroy their flavor and ap- pearance by reckless driving.

 Nowadays, cosmetics are as im- portant to Q well-sroomed woman as the right clothes, 8 suitable coiffure or any other item that con- tributes to her ensemble. Of course, as someone once said, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and stand- ards of good looks vary in different parts of the world. But, in this country one who doesn't use bit of powder and at least Q touch of lipstick is likely to, give others the impression that she simply doesn't care about enhancing and accentu- ating her natural beauty.
 If you doubt that . sdiminutive amount of rouge. applied artistic ally on both cheeks, light coat of powder and Q dash of npstick can improve your appearance, you have only to put these on, look at yourself in the mirror, remove every trace of makeup, then look again. Unless you have natural color in cheeks and lips and satin-Hke, beautifully textured skin that never looks shiny even after soap and water bath you certainly will be convinced that cosmetics are help to your beauty.
 Also, regardless of the cynics and all the literature to the contrary, there is much to be said in favor of creams and lotions. They won't make a 50 year old individual look like a 19 year old, and they won't change Miss Just Average into Q glamorous motion picture beauty.
 However, creams do soften, there by preventing lines and wrinkles; lotions are refreshing; foundations do make powder stay on, and masks smooth away fine, temporary lines and give the complexion bloom ing, fresh look. You should i, not expect miracles, but you certainly can expect to stay lovelier longer of you invest in one or two really good preparations then use them regularly and correctly.
 Then, too, the psychological ef- feet of beauty preparations is not to be scoffed at. There are no two ways about 1t. If a woman feels that she looks perfectly groomed and as lovely as possible, she does. And the girl who has given herself a home facial and used rouge, powder and lipstick ir- telligently just before 8 party will have 8 nicer air of self-confiden which makes for charm and popu- larity, than one who simply didn't bother.

WHAT! NO GARBAGE GAN?

WHAT! NO GARBAGE CAN?
 From the sanitary viewpoint the most satisfactory garbage disposal for municipalities is the following: All garbage must be wrapped in pa per, and placed in a receptacle hav- ing tightly fitting cover. The re- ceptacle is placed in the alley early enough in the morning to be col lected by trucks which traverse only the alleys and not the streets. The truncks when loaded are covered over and driven directly to dis posal plant where the garbage is dumped into burners and immedi- ately burned. This system, when propertly carried out, approaches the ideal. It is difncult to conceive better method of garbage disposal which would be practicable for vil- lage or city. ,s.
 But the individual householder may use better method. There is now available a practical gadget, powered with electricity, which not only disposes of all kitchen refuse or garbage as fast as 1t accumlates but also does away with the garbage can, which has always been an lln- pleasant encumbrance upon good housekeeping. In doing away with the garbage can the new kitchen waste unit does away also with a real menace to health, the house. fly. For even under the most nearly perfect conditions described, the garbage receptacle as well as its contents undeniably attracted and encouraged the breeding of flies.
 With such a kitchen waste unit m- stalled, all the waste or garbage Of an average household may be com pletely shredded or pulped and dis charged through the sewer outlet Tn few moments dialy. After all, why not use the sewer for disposal or kitchen waste just as we do for dis- posal of human waste?
 In practice 1t has been found that this method of garbage disposal does not tend to clog the. sink drain. The shredded or pulped garbage rather serves to keep the drain secured out, much as does coffee grounds which experienced housekeepers empty down the sink drain for that purpose.
 am not qualified to pass on the economical question but I can and do recommend the installation of such 8 unit for disposing of kitchen waste through the sewer as one more step in home sanitation.
 In small communities disposal of garbage by feeding to hogs is as unobjectionable as burying or plow- ing under. Hogs fed largely or en- tirely on garbage make quite as good meat, from the sanitary viewpoint, as do hogs fed with grains. Pork, other meta, and compares favorably by the way, is as wholesome as any with any other meat in flavor, nu- tritive value and digestibility. The American people know what's what when they consume more pork than any other meat.

London.--I have been fascinated by column in this mornings pa- per, captioned: Animal News Reel.H
 The first item is about a dog that disappeared from its home in On- tario eleven years ago, and returned recently. Next, a pigeon released eight years ago in race, in Aus tralia, has been recently found near it's old home. A COW fainted and broke the collar bone of its owner. And something else about 6 horse. At home all these items might be in the paper, but they'd likely be scat tered through the pages instead of so conveniently assembled.
 Foreign Anthem Familiar Tul;e We are having a hard time find- ing a movie we haven't seen at home. Strange, when you think of it. Hollywood must be the world center of pictures, not merely Am- erican.

 So That Is T0xemia?
 My boy thirteen years old has tox- emia so that if he has a sore or skin broken it does not heal and gets in- fected easily. Does he need doctors care or can we take care of 1t .our- selves? (Mrs. F. D.
 .Answer-The "toxemia" notion is silly. If immediate application of tincture of iodin to scratch or other break of skin, and then simple pro- lection against contact with unclean or infected surfaces does not bring about prompt healing, the boy needs medical attention, and there is nothing you can do yourself. ] Vicarious Sweat Once 8 week ! take steam bath, perspiring for about twenty minutes in hot room, then a shower, gradu- ally cooler, then go home-all in about; an hour.

 Eudora Ramsay Richardsons recent book, ''The Influence of Men ncurable," provides an in- teresting insight into woman'S economic status. The National Federation of Business and Profes- sional Womens Clubs in cooperation with Bryn Mawr College, made survey showing that 6S.6 per cent of those canvassed were taking care of dependents. Older women had the heavier load. Two-thirds of these former Byrn MaM women were single as against one-sixth who were mar ried and one-sixth who were widows.

 There are shades and shades in window shades. Now that the dec- orators and designers are giving 10 windows (which, in the average room, take up about one-fourth of the wall Space) the attention they deserve, window shades are being considered from the. viewpoint of style as well as practicality.
 Color, pattern, texture keep these in mind when you choose new win dow shades.
 Along with furniture, rugs, drap- cries and all the accessories that go to furnish a comfortable, liveable room, window shades should blend inconspicuously with their surround ings, creating a general effect of unity. Decorous, window shades have always been; now they are turning decorative. The shades at your win- dows should harmonize in color and design with the draperies and glass curtains-if you use glass curtains. Draperies, curtains and shades should hang together, f1guratively as well as literally.
 "Ensemblin.." is the word the ex- perts use for windows treated in such a manner. The home maker, quite as well as the trained expert, can undertake the planning of such ensembles, achieving attractive re- suits. It requires, first, careful con- sideration of the homes require ments. It requires, too, some shop ping around, samples in hand. And it requires an eye for what is new and attractive.

 For headaches due to eye dis Eurbances. certain preventive and relaxing measures are useful. Some dimes relief is obtained by keep ing the eyes closer to the reading { material or to the work. In such cases, properly fitted glasses are of great benefit.
 Some people get the habit of Dqueezing their eyelids together, binding, and squinting. This brings tension on the muscles of the face and pull on the mus cles at the back of the head, and the result is likely to be pain ' an the bac kof the head.
 Sometimes relief from headache associated with eyestrain may be had by stopping work and looking oil into the distance for a while, after which one is able again comfortably to focus the eyes on the work.
 Such cases indicate that the eye may need some help and 8 visit should be made to @ person capable of determining the physical condi- tion of the eye and of deciding whether glasses should be pre- gcribed.
 Sometimes headache from eye strain is 8 reflex headache associat- cd with symptoms elsewhere. in the body. In such cases the patient may also be nauseated. fatigued, and easily irritated. Certainly 1t as not wise in such cases to relieve khe headache by using sedative or narcotic drugs. These drugs merely mask the symptoms without giving anything resembling permanent re- hief.
 Another type of headache is khAt associated with insufdciencies of the blood, or anemia. A suit able examination of the blood will indicate whether there is a sufIicient number of red blood cells or a suficient amount of red coloring matter in the blood. If . deficiency is found, treatment win help rebuild the blood to 8 more nearly normal state.
 Head pains of any kind are. of ecurse, regularly associated with changes in tissues of the brain and those that surround the brain.
 Infections or infiammations such ns meningitis and encephalitis are xegulsKIy associated with severe r1eadaches. Accumulation of fiuid ftn the brain, in various disorders, may flrst manifest itself. by pain, and later, as pressure continues, by n0nvulsiol1g or unconsciousness.

De Luxe Bus LINE
SERVICE SLASHED
Accommodation to Chevy
Chase to Run Only During
Rush Hours After April |.

After April / de luxe bus service
will be discontinued on the Chevy
Chase line except during rush hours.
Orders to that effect were issued
late yesterday by the Public Utilities
Commission as climax of q showing
by the Capital Transit Co. that the
line has been operated at a loss for
more than q year.
As a last-minute piece Of evidence,
1t was shown that on IA trips, 26S
passengers were carried. The loss for
January was shown to be $2,500.
Thrives Before Depression.
The Public Utilities Commission had
previously made its own study Of the
line. When it was inaugurated, prior
to the depression, it prospered. AT
that time the fare was IS cents per
passenger. When business slumped,
passengers turned to the old street
car line. To regain patronage, a Is
cent fare was inaugurated.
That also proved profitable until
the street car line was abandoned
last Fall. A 10-cent bus service was
added on the same line, and little by
little, the less expensive service at
tracted virtually all the customers. A
late check by both the commission
and the transit company showed an
average of only two persons per bus
Rerouting Discussed.
The commission suggested that some
of the buses, relieved of duty, except
for the rush periods, be tried out on
the Takoma Park express line.
Several matters of rerouting cars
with the new routes already approved
were discussed and the Capital Transit
Co. said construction will be under
taken at once since the severe Winter
weather has abated.
