scopic property-that is. the ability to
absorb and retain moisture. In some
food products this power of levulose
to retain moisture is desirable. Fruit

the cake baker has favorite recipe
OF her own in which she wants to
substitute honey, then she has this
problem. In just what proportion
should she substitute honey for sugar,
and in what proportion should she
reduce the liquid in the recipe?

ITO TAKE the guesswork out OF this
substitution Of honey for sugar In
cakes and quick breads, experts in the
Bureau Of Home Economics have ex-
perimented with honey recipes Final

have formulated 4 rule. This rule

This Is the rule. When medium

BY EMILY POST.

NEAR MRS. POST: We are think-
ing of building a small house.
which is to have large. comfortable
rooms. but only six of them. and We
would like one of these to be a real
library. But does it seem to you out
of all reasonable proportion in such
small house to devote one room solely
to this purpose? Understand. this is
not to be a room intended to give false
literary evidence. but merely that We
have several thousand books that are
at the moment stored everywhere, but
they are in ordinary bindings and
are we'll worn. If only they looked
better We could make the living room
bigger and put them in that, but to
have them all rebound would cost too
much.
Answer: No furnishings that you
could choose could possibly contribute
SO much homelike beauty to living
room as whole walls of books. And the
older and more read-looking the better.
Of course i don't mean dilapidated
books with the backs OF their bindings,
gone or hanging in tatters. but no
library of a multimillionaire, with
books all in formally best bindings of
crushed levant behind glass cases. ever
had the alluring charm of books on
ordinary shelves in their ordinary and
much-used bindings. In your place.
would add the book space to the living
room. and remember what most people
forget: Most books do not require
l2-inch shelves nor 8-inch either.
Wide shelves not only take up needless
space, but when books can't reach
across the shelf, every time one is
taken out or put back it pulls out or
pushes the ones next to it out OF line
sometimes even out Of sight. And
you always have to fuss to keep the
rows from looking like box-pleated
teeth. Very shabby bindings. by the
way. can be made to look very nice
if bound in book cloth or wall papers
neatly labeled. and not too many
shelves full OF the same covering.

Dorothy Dix Says
Discipline Is Only Method That
Will Assure a Child's Future.

TINE other day mother killed
her four children because she
felt she had failed to raise
them properly. Because Of my
lack Of discipline and training the
children are better dead. Only grief
would have come to them If they had
lived" she said.
A terrible and \ tragic thing that
only a mad woman could have done.
Yet how many sane mothers. looking
at the drunkards. the weaklings, the
failures, the criminals they have
reared. have said in their hearts that
it would have been a better and a
kinder thing of they had slain their
children in their cradles than to have
brought them up to be the kind Of
men and women they were.
once heard a woman say OF her
sister: God gave her angels and she
is doing her best to turn them into
devils. Her children have every good
gift that nature could bestow upon
them. They are strong and beautiful
in body. They have unusually fine
minds. They should have happy and
prosperous lives.
"RUT my sister is running them by
the way she is bringing them
up. She Is babying them and waiting
ON them hand and foot. until she will
make them so weak they will never be
able to stand on their own feet She
pampers and indulges them until they
are becoming spoiled brats whom
everybody hates At sight. She has
never taught them any self-control
or consideration for the rights Of
others or to know any law except
their own sweet wills.
you'll see that they will be mis-
cradle failures In life. They will make
the kind of men and women who never
accomplish anything and never get
anywhere because they are always
looking for some soft job that is satin
padded, the way mother used to fix
things for them. And they will always
be getting divorces, trying to find q
husband or wife who will give every
thing to them and expect nothing In
return, as mother did"

Glamour Is
Something
Personality Must
Sparkle Above
A Costume.
BY ELSIE PIERCE.

IT is just about the most discussed
subject everywhere today, yet It Is
taboo in Hollywood, the spot where
more Of it can be found than perhaps
any other spot In the world. Actors,
directors and writers are limp from
trying to analyze it.
Cecil B. De Mile says: Glamour is
an old Scotch word meaning a spell
cast by magic II you can add any,
thing to that write it and I'll see
whether or not agree with you"
Marlene Dietrich shrugs her broad
and beautifully modelled shoulders 70
the question. What is glamour" She
replies, who knows?"
Rouben Mamoulian, who has di-
rected top names in the glamour con-
tingent, says, You may as we'll ask
an electrician what Is electricity. Both
that and glamour are mysterious
forces in the world. They thrill and
kill But they defy analysis"
And dictionary definition is: ANY
interest in, or association with. an
object or person seems delusively mag
nif1ed or glorified, deceptive or en-
ticing charm
1t would seem. then. that glamour
is more than skin deep. 1t takes in
ones poise' and personality and It's
effect upon others. ones charm, ones
beauty. To women the word glamour
usually has some association with
smartness-one's ability to wear clothes
we'll.
We admit that glamour is a mys-
terious somewhat vague term. It is
something you feel almost instinctively.
| yet you see it as well 1t is a super
something or other Pictorially speak
| ing it means good grooming plus
smartness and sparkle. And though
the term defies definition We 90
think that it is something you acquire
-. one isn't born with glamour.
| 1t takes effort to achieve glamour,
| but it's worth it. And at this season
when there are so many feathers and
furbelows. so much elegance and gold
and glitter, the truly glamorous indi-
vidual is one whose personality, far
from being subdued by it all. sparkles
over and above it. That, to my mind,
is the true test Of glamour.
What is your definition?

THERE is always something new
to learn when you 60 In search

OF ways and means to attain
and retain beauty. Last week
we had the pleasure of meeting q
woman who has built up her own
extensive business on the basis Of
firm belief that products containing
the best ingredients, such as hers,
when used intelligently, are bound to
bring good results. She sticks to jars
and bottles without glamour, but gives
you contents that will make you more
glamorous.
One Of her fundamental principles
is that the skin does breathe. She
says that the air necessary for life
Is taken into the body, not only
through the lungs, but through every
pore Of the body, and she therefore
advocates day treatments for beauty.
allowing the skin to rest at night for
health and refreshment. She believes
that except for perfect cleansing,
which means removing all dust. powder
and creams, there should be no other
night treatment.
For this perfect cleansing she offers
an excellent pore-deep lotion, creamy
white, pleasant to use, and producing
excellent results, even to removing the
last vestiges Of indelible lipstick and
creme rouge. This is all very simple
and easy, and welcome news indeed.
She advises using any necessary skin
foods during the warm bath, - the
skin Is then receptive and will absorb
all that it can during this short period
after which the excess may be again
removed with the cleansing lotion and
the skin left clean and fresh for the
night. This seems to be . very sensible
thing to do and one that should appeal
to quantities Of women who are fas-
tidious about their bed linen and
dainty night dresses.

explanation:
The first automobile built in AL
aska was constructed by Robert E.
Sheldon in 1905 at Skagway. Mr.
Sheldon went to Alaska in 1898 at
the age OF fourteen-be before he had
ever seen a "horseIess carriage"
A few years later he saw advertise
ments Of autos III magazines, and
from the general descriptions he
read and studied he formed his own
idea Of a motor carriage. He took
an old single cylinder auto-marine
engine of 81 hip and placed it
ciosswise between the front wheels,
powering the rear wheels by means
Ct two bicycle chains and sprockets
He steered it By long handle-as
were most autos of that time-in-
stead OF the conventional steering
wheel This unique car is now in the
University OF Alaska Museum in
Fairbanks and Mr. Sheldon is

same city.

THOUGHT TIED
TO PARALYSIS

CRY connecting the spread of infan-

mysterious summertime attacks of
hay fever, was presented to the Ac-
ademy of Medicine here today.
The theory is eXpounded by DR..
H. E. Anderson, a Fellow of the
Roval College of Physicians.
The doctor said that in the midst
of hay fever trouble there appears
to generally always be an explos-
i've outbreak of infantile paralysis.
The well known DR.. Anderson said
he wondered if there could not be
a connection between the two para
lysis epidemics which always occur
during the summer months.
