I told her that I had never heard
Of oyster waffles. Jane said that
it was one Of Mary's concoctions
and was simply elegant. Since
they had some waffle batter in the
refrigerator, Jane insisted that
try some. After hearing all the
discussion on luscious food, such
an invitation was music to my
ears.
The waffles really were grand.
They were made like this:
1 cup Of ready-prepared biscuit
flour
/ cup Of milk
egg
4 tablespoons of butter
u cup Of finely chopped oysters
The girls have been using ready
prepared flour because it Skips the
Sitting" and cutting in" process
and, since they use 1t In small
quantities, the cost Is very little
more. Mary added the milk, beaten
egg to the flour, whipped it
smooth, then added finely chopped
oysters and meter butter.
They never grease their waffle
iron as they add enough butter to
the waffle batter to prevent
sticking.
For dinner they had had a. gela-
tine salad made in the tray Of the
refrigerator. It was q lovely green
color filled with shredded cuculn-
bers, which are on the market in
abundance. With the oyster waf-
file the taste was Just right.

the amounts purchased and costs

I was so interested they showed
me what they had bought and I
copied it off for you:

4 packages Of mints, 20 cents.
They were discussing the pur-
chases, Jane seemed to think that
there was too much that was not
staple. Mary, maintained that it
could all be used, as potatoes,
jello, pineapple, sauSages, and
cranberries would keep for several
days. They showed me their
menu plans.
They had used the oysters that
night for dinner in oyster waffles.

For the last two months we have
been hearing some strange rumors
coming from the beauty and
fashion authorities Of Hollywood.
We expect to be entertained by
Hollywood's goings on, and why
not? For, according to what they
tell us, everything worth while in
beauty and fashion originates
there.
"As Hollywood goes, so goes the
fashion world" they tell uS-and a
nice straightforward statement it
is. AS a matter of fact, it has a lot
Of truth in 1t. They have set many
a popular fad and fashion and
have a following that will take up
every vogue they introduce.

tered the human stomach It de-
velopS into the adult worm In
about is days.
The worms locate mostly at the
head Of the large intestine, mi
crate down to the rectum, and
crawl out over the skin Of the
buttocks, giving rise to intense
itching. Hands and finger nails
that scratch the affected parts
are conveyed to the mouth and
result In constant reinfection. Be
sides this, eggs are developing in
the intestine so that about every
80 days there is a new crop Of
adult worms.
These facts show us the way to
prevention and treatment. The
most important thing is to pre-
vent contamination Of the finger
nails and consequent reinfection.
Second, one treatment is not
enough, but a course Of treatment
should be repeated every two
weeks for several months. First
the parasites in the lower bowel
should be destroyed and washed
out.
Must Be Removed
This can be done very simply
by enemas Of infusion Of quaSsi.
Vinegar and water is said to be
just as good. Besides this, the
parasites on the skin Of the but
tocks must be killed with mer.
curial ointment, and the irrita-
ton allayed with a soothing
ointment, such as camphor ice.
The patients buttockS and legs
should be covered at night so
that the parasites do not get in
to the bed. and the hands should
be covered by gloves so that
temptations to sucking the
fingers or biting the nails are
removed.
Besides this, the worms at the
head Of the large intestine must
be removed. This Is done as
follows: A dose Of castor oil
the night before, no breakfast,
santonin-one grain for q child,
three grains for an adult-an
hour later one-half grain Of calo-
mel and two hours later O good
dose Of EPSON salts.

Red Tresses Are Displacing Blond

; There is a definite vogue for red
hair, and henna coloring is far
in the lead again. Henna, however,
is the coloring that is not per
manent as are dyes and bleaches,
and for this reason may be clasSed
as natural,
The too.glamorous makeup is
"out," also, as they say. They are

the change is here.

natural beauty. The hair especially
Is to be without coloring or bleach.
They are SO open in their con-
demnation of bleached hair that it
will be nothing short Of q misde-
meanor to be found with blond
hair of any tint from now on.
They are interested in the health
and quality Of the hair now rather
than the coloring, on the theory
that all healthy hair is beautiful,
and besides they stress the fact
they are so tired Of blond hair
that it is no longer attractive.
It is true, many Of the stars
who were blondes for years are now
wearing natural or red hair. It
seems for some reason this noble
back-to-the.natural movement does
not include red or hennaed hair.

Gold tones also strike q rich
note in these Spanish master

ton, not treatment, and to do
that we must inquire into. the
life history of the parasite.
The pinworm, or Seatworm, Is
q very common parasite found In
all countries. Like the round.
worm, it has a prediction for
children and young people. It is
more common in cities than IN
the country. The worm lives ex-
clusively in the body Of man, In
which it Is different from most
other animal parasites which
have one Of the lower animals as
an intermediate host.
Causes Infection
The parasite enters the body in
the stage Of an egg. The eggs are
destroyed by long immersion in
water and, therefore, drinking
water as a source Of infection is
ruled out. The eggs leaving the
body Of an infected person may
be deposited on the ground and
enter another persons body
through the mouth-by sucking
dirty fingers that have been play
ing in the mud, on fruit and raw
vegetables which have been hand
led by dirty fingers, and countless
other ways of the same general

been said that he depicted Spain
from court to pothouse, from

of this great artist, whose works

cloaks Of young gallants, in the
uniforms of pompous marquis and
in the gay SaShes worn by men
