SOFT, SMOOTH AND CLEAR
 A dry, rough, irritable and Jus. treless skin (xerosis, xeroderma) is generally improved by the regular application of Q suitable skin oil.
 While freshly made cold cream, (the directions for making have alrsady been given) 1 stsndard for the purpose, many victims of xerosis prefer the daily use of some simple neutral bland oil such as olive oil, almond oil, coconut oil (obtained from the meat of the coconut, fruit of the coconut palm), cacao oil (commonly known as "cocoa butter" the yellowish fat obtained from the seeds of the cacao tree, called "cocoa beans" or "cocoa nibs," from which chocolate is obtained) and sesame oil.
 Sesame oil (ofiicialy Oleum So. sami, commonly called teel oil, benne oil or oil of tiO is expressed from the seeds of the benne plant which grows in the southern states and in india. It is as nutritious and digestible as olive oil. The oil has two properties that2 give 1t pre- eminence in cosmetology-it keeps long witohut becoming rancid and 1t does not clog the skin as do other oils. A few drops daily of the following preparation will be found an excellent conditioner fct' the skin:

 Heat moderately for three hours in Q double boiler or water bath four ounces of sesame oil with 20 grains of powdered benzoin. Then lot cool, add 20 drops of 100 proof alcohol, stir well and finally filter or strain through silk.
 Kerosis or xerderma Is known as iChthyosis (fishskin disease, al- ligator hide) when 1t k so pre- nounced as to have 6 scaly ap. pearance. Back of the elbows, outer surfaces of knees and calves are common situations of ichthyosis. The skin in the affected areas Is dry, harsh, rough, scaly, and in some instances shows Q furfur. aceous desquamation or peeiing of dry scales. It looks sallow and dirty" It Is most troublesome in winter and in colder climates.
 The daily application of Skin oil, and avoidance of soap and other irritantS, controls the trouble in mild cases. Tn more obstinate cases ichthyosiS requires medical treat- ynent, regulation of faulty func. ton oe ductless glands, alkaline baths, sunbaths and an optimal daily ration of the sunshine vita. mine (vitamin D..
 Th- addition of thirty grains of salicylic acid to the four ounces of skin oil as already described, makes 6 more effective application for pitches of alligator hide" about elbows or knees.
 Skin Oil (without the salicyllc acid) is suitable to apply sparingly to the scalp to correct excessive dryness of scalp and hair after . shampoo the hair here and there and rub c few drops of the skin oil on the scalp with finger tips-or spray e few drops onto the scalp forcibly from an atonizer with the tip In contact with scalp.

They may find that individuality is the Duchess big asset An individuality that kept her distinctly herself u- til she was one patterned aernstead of letting her become carbon copy of some other personality.
 And they may discover that her char-ike the charm of Scarett OHar with whom the Southern born Duchess seems to have some qualities in common-es mostly n her ability to make shy men feel appreciated and admired
 There's always place in the spotlight for the woman who can do that And she doesn't need beauty fine cothes or great wit for props
 It is just an ability to get over to the who need it the agesod but always new that they wo derful.
 A careful study of the Duchess of Windsor may show American women that is that ability they had better copy instead of Paris made wardrobe.

 The war Is on. Embattled house. wives are massed for defense of the family food budget. Let the first attack be a flank movement.
 Beef is still beef, remembered, though 1t be iN . AaSak steak. For. get your prejudice against any but Q sirloin or porterhouse; for get any tough experiences you may have had with flank steak cooked In careless ways. Times change and often for the best If we attack the business of making the leaner cuts of beef which are really the muscles of locomotion, into tender, nourishing dishes, we can develop in this extravagant country of ours a new and perma- nent threat to the disproportionate cost of good red beef.
 Rolled Roast with Mushroom Sauce
 (serves { to 6)
 One flank steak Co flank steak usually weighs between 2 and 3 pounds), 1 strips fat bacon, l Ber- muda onion, turnip, l green pep- per.
 Lay flank out on table and trim 1 of fat. Lay strips of bacon even iy across 1t. Cut turnip and onion and green pepper into large slices. Arrange these over the meat. Sprinkle with salt, pepper and paprika. Carefully roll up the steak and tie securely with clean white cord. Place in Q shallow roasting pan. Bake in moderate even (35o degrees FJ for about 1 l-4 hours, basting frequently with the drippings to which add 0 little onion juice and hot water. DO not cover. Serve this flavor some roast of beef with rnush. room sauce.
 That recipe explains the gen- eral principle of rolling flank steaks for roasting. You can eas- fly vary this stuffing, but remem- Der that when no fat IS used, @ few pieces of suet should be scat- tered over the rolled roast in the pan. For roasting time, allow. ance must be about 10 minutes more e pound than for the ex- pensive cuts. These flank and similar steaks have more con. nective tissue and muscle flores in them and less fat. When serving. carve through the meat on the bias. You will get a much more tender result that way.
 Quick .bYoiIed Flank Steak
 (4 to 6 serVings)
 One flank steak, salt and pepper. 2 tablespoons butter, 2 tablespoons catsup. teaspoon minced parsley.
 Wipe steak clean and trim of supcrfiuous fat. Have oven broiler very hot, then lay steak on greased brvlier and run under flame. Broil for ' or 6 minutes, turning 3 or 1 times. Then place at once on hot platter, where butter, catsup and parsley have melted and mingled themselves into @ cordial welcoming committee.

STRIKE HALTS 5
SEATTLE PAPER

SEATTLE, Wash, July 6.-Be-
cause Of jurisdictional dispute be-
tween two labor groups, the Team
sters Union and the American
Newspaper Guild, the Seattle Star
has ceased publication, perhaps
permanently.
The trouble arose when members
Of the Guild, which recently ex-
tended its jurisdiction from edi-
torial department employees to the
circulation and business depart
ments, went on strike because 19
truck drivers engaged in distribut-
ing the newspaper we're placed in
other positions by the management
of the Star.
The change Of jobs came after
the drivers had joined the Guild
in preference to the teamsterS'
body, which also claims juriSdic-
ton over them. The newspaper
then made arrangements with the
teamsters to continue deliveries.
and transferred the new Guild
drivers to other departments. The
Guild then voted to walk out.
Pickets were thrown around the
Star building yesterday by the
Guild. Union printers then refused
to enter the structure, and publica-
ton was suspended. Meanwhile.
teamsters are continuing to back
trucks up to the nearly empty
building, in accordance with their
agreement, even though there are
no newspapers to distribute.
Management Of the Star said the
paper is in the position of "con-
ciliator" in the strike, and might
be forced to hquidate the firm If
the strike remains unsettled.
