WHY an Oil Polish?

And here, home-makers, is
why: The oil element in polish is
absolutely essential to all fine
wood! For the same reason that
we oil machinery-water our
plants-massage cream into the
facets oil polish used! The same
principle applies-for wood def
nitely requires this attention to
keep it "alive!" The best oil pol
ish has a fine, non-greasy oil base
and it is just this-when rubbed
or massaged into the furniture
that prevents the wood from
checking, drying out, splitting or
cracking. Furniture will not do
any of these things, when cared
for-and it is the combination of
the "oiP' and the rubbing" that
prevents it! For the quality oil
polish feeds" the hungry finish
keeps the wood young! Other pol
ishes may give a quick, easy-to-
achieve luster-but little time
and energy Git should not be la
bor) on the part of the housewife,
will pay dividends in the looks and
long life of her furniture and
woodwork. All experts agree that
an oil polish properly used (apply
on damp cloth-as directed) is not
only better-it is vital! And so,
home-makers, take this important
tip: Always use an oil polish-and
the best one!

Questions Answered

Mrs. S. T. R.-Answering your
question as to what is the most
efficient time to begin reducing
the proper time is when the
weight first begins to climb above
normal. Most people wait until
they are 20 or 80 pounds over
weight and then reducing becomes
more difficult.
Mrs. A. r. M.-No, milk is not
fattening. Women especially fear
that milk will increase their
weight, but this fear is not justi-
fed, since a pint of milk, or two
large glasses, only supplies $40
calories.
Miss T. p. G.-Yes, there is a
stimulant in cocoa that closely re-
sembles caffeine in coffee. But a
cup of cocoa contains less of the
stimulant than is found in a cup
of tea or coffee.

Blind, But Not to Color!
Helen Keller is not Americas only
accomplished blind person. Her re-
markable career is almost equalled
by that of Miss Nettie Timonds,

of Bladensburg, Iowa. When she was
three years old Miss Tinonds was
stricken with diphtheria and was
left unable to talk. Two years later
speech returned, but then came
deafness. Nor was this the end of
her bad luck, for in 1888 Miss Tim

Undaunted, she has become a
successful farmer, aided by her
trusty hired man, Perry Wilson. He

crank about her peonies; she in

colors be grouped and blended just
so. And old rose is her favorite
color, used freely to decorate the
home which she designed personal

Opinion May Be Right,
but Don't NEEDLE With
Affairs of Others.

DEAR MISS DENE: My best
II friend is in love with man
whom all our crowd know to be a
loafer. He proves this by not get
ting work and by spending most of
his time in my friends home, glad
" accepting the hospitality her par
ents foolishly offer him. He eats
most of his meals there and Of
course never takes his girl even to
the movies. We try to persuade her
to give him up-but so far without
success. Can we stand by and see
her tying herself to man who will
make her miserable? / have read
your column often and Like the ad-
vice you give. Should be obliged IL
you would offer some advice to me.
Gwen.
ANSWER-Whethe it's your best
friends true love, or your cousins
fiance or your brothers wife who's
causing you sleepless nights of anx-
iety, make up your mind to this def
initely. You can't persuade an in
fatuated man or woman to give up
romance, not if you shout common
sense slogans at them for the rest
of your life. Hands off other peo-
pies happiness, even if you know
they're going to make mess OF 1t.
You naturally see all the worst
side of your chum's chosen mate.
You know a great many practical
details about him which she over
looks. You look at him impersonal-
ly and coldly and find him wanting.
And from an absolutely common
sense point of view you may be
right.
But don't forget this; that the girl ,Uho
is in love Uith her man knOtos more
about him than you do, in many iOays.
She may understand that certain Uedk-
nesses OF his hare held him back and
made him failure. She may realize, that
her influence and help can put him on his
feet and give him something TO cork for.
She will be the first to detect signs OF
Improvements ,Uhile you and the rest OF
the crotUd are still sitting on the specta-
tors bench and booing loudly in his d.
rection.
And often what appears to out
SiderS a mans shameless VIKING
ness to eat his sweetheart's family
out of hearth and home is nothing
more nor less than an indication
that the infatuated swain is pleas
ing his lady.
For if a determined girl wants to
see her sutton every day and all the
time she can usually persuade him
to be in constant attendance, even
though his compliance with her
wishes puts him in a bad light with
his friends.
Very often a man is criticized for
monopolizing a maiden's time with
out doing anything to entertain her.
The world cries SHAME" and wags
it's head compassionately over the
sad fate of the deluded damsel.
And all the time the poor man is
merely carrying out his lady's or
derS.
I suggest, Gwen, that you give
your pal a chance to see what she
can do about improving her shiftless
affinity. Perhaps she is wiser than

gallon barrel. Muscles, liver and
kidneys are about 80 per cent wa
ter, the brain IS per cent. Even
bone is made up of more than
one-third water, so you can see
that the old adage "dry as a
bone" is not strictly accurate.
No cell can function unless it is
constantly bathed in fluid. Fur
thermore, the cells depend upon
water to transport their foods
through the blood. This alone re-
quires ten pounds of water in
constant circulation.
We may term these functions
an incoming service. But it is
equally important as an outgoing
stream. The cells need water to
flush away their waste products.
And if the surface of the lungs is
not kept moist, there can be no in
take of oxygen, no output of car
bon dioxide.
Without water, no waste would
be carried out of the body. Poi.
sonous substances would remain
to wreck the system within short
time. Water Pushes the countless
channels of physical existence
even while we sleep, for it con-
stantly passes from the body
through the lungs and skin, as
well as through the bowels and
kidneys.

Woter Starvation
Where do we get all this water?
When we are thirsty, we take a
drink and there the interest OF
most people ends.
Few individuals give proper
consideration to supplying the
body with all the water it needs.
Yet, when the water content OF
the body diminishes, health and
life are in danger. A loss of 10
per cent of body water is a serious
matter and loss of 20 per cent
is usually fatal.
1t is only in rare instances
such as when lost in desert
that man actually dies of thirst,
for even when no fluids are drunk,
water is consumed with food. But
all about us we see men and WON.

tions of this are dryness of the

How Much Is Enough?
A healthy, normal Individual re-
quires about four quarts of water
every "a hours. That requirement
varies somewhat with the season.
In hot weather there is a greater
elimination of water through per-
spiration and that loss must be
replaced.
However, it is not necessary to
drink four quarts of water a day.
For part of our needs are sup
piled by food. The body draws
upon three sources for it's water:
First, water taken as drink or
in other liquids; second, water
supplied by foods, especially fruits
and vegetables, for although solid
foods appear dry, most of them
are in fact from rs to 95 per cent
water; third, water formed in the
tissues in the combustion of fuel
foods. Fat gives the most water
when burned. In fact, it produces
more water than the weight of
the original fat. Sugar gives the
least.

Foods Rich in Wuter
A half-pound potato contains
nearly a full glass of water. Some
other foods that are more than
20 per cent water are asparagus,
berries, string beans, cabbage,
caulifiower, celery, cucumber,
eggs, citrus fruits, cherries,
grapes, melons, apples, raw and
cooked greens, Tx, onions,
cooked green peas, boiled pota-
toes, sauerkraut, shell fish, meat
stews, tomatoes and squash.
Foods containing less than 30
per cent water include butter,
cakes, candies, ready-to-eat cere-
ais, crackers, dried fruits, nuts,
potato chips, sausage, bacon, syr-
ups and zwieback.

Avoid the Dry Hobit
In addition to the water con-
sumed with food, every normal
individual should drink about six
glasses Of liquid daily-as water,
milk, coffee, tea or other bever-
ages.
Most people drink far too little
water. Women often have the mis-
taken notion that water will make
them fat. To demonstrate the fall
lacy of this idea, a world-famous
physician once remarked that il
that were true, poor people would
long ago have adopted the prac-
tice.
1t is possible to drink too much
water and those who are suffering
from disease should be guided by
their physician in determining the
amount required. But most nor
NAL people could increase both
mental and physical efficiency by
taking more of this magic fluid.

Drink Woter with Meuls
The question is often asked-'Is
it wise to drink water with
meals?" The answer is eyes"
There is evidence that the drink
ing of reasonable amount of wa.
ter with meals by normal individ-
uals stimulates the secretion of
gastric juice, thereby improving
digestion. 1t has also been DEM
onstrated that it aids in the alb
sorption of food by the body and
retards the growth of intestinal
bacteria.

DEAR DORIS DENE: 1 have a
II sister-in-law who is the bane of
nv existence. She is a competent
housekeeper and excessively tidy.
Whenever she comes to see me she
manages to make me feel that my
home is badly run and my children
are not cared for as they should be.
She makes a nervous wreck of me,
yet my husband is SO fond of her l
cannot forbid her to enter my home.
What can 1 do to overcome this
nervous dread?-Mrs. r. S. p.
ANSWER-If your sisters criti-
cisms get under your skin, it's only
because you feel that there is some
truth in them. For if you were
convinced that you were doing your
honest level best to run your house
right and give your children the
proper care, your own self-respect
would bolster up your confidence
and take away all your fears.
Figure it out this way: Take some
one special thing which you know
you do well-far better indeed than
your sister-in-law does it. And sup
pose she came to you with one or
two little suggestions about improv-
ing yourself in your own particular
line. Would you cringe with fear?
You would not. You'd laugh off her
unfriendly little hints-because your
confidence in your own particular
ability would help you to ignore the
over-criticism.
Girls in business Offices often tell me
that one particular boss is tuOrse than an.
other because he always makes them neru-
Ous-picks out their weaknesses, tastens
on their chief faiUS. The ansiUer is that
the particular employer in question: has
scented the truth; that ,Uhereas Betty may
be an excellent stenographer she is care
less and Indifferent about her filing. Or
Uhereas Marie is model OF efficiency
phen it comes to Office routine, she is
hopelessly bad at tipping and prefers to
let il slide.
Now the sensible woman who is
faced with criticism which renders
her nervous wreck, does one of
two things. Either she seeks to
strengthen her own weak points so
that she is able to stand up to her
critic. Or else she helps her own
self-confidence by figuring out that
she is pretty good average.
If she knows herself to be an in
different housekeeper but realizes
that she makes up for this defect
in many ways, she can begin to pat
herself on the back, once in while.
Let her concentrate on her own
strong points and remember them
when she is faced with accusations
of inefficiency.
