When to Add Salt.-Salt should
never be added to steWs, soups
and boiled meats until after
they're cooked. If put in at first
it toughens the fiber of the meat
and takes out the juices.
Larger WindowS.-A small Win
dow may be made to look larger
by setting the curtain rods beyond
the casing on each side and using
the draperies of a material heavy
enough so that the casing will
not be seen through the material.
When Papering.-It is we'll when
papering a room to remember
that large patterns and dark col
ors will make it appear small
er, while plain or striped paper,
if a light hue, will give an impress
sion of increased size.
Fighting Oil Blaze. - Never
throw water on blazing oil. It
will only spread the flames.
Earth, flour or sand will ex-
tinguish the fire, but if these are
not at hand a thick rug or curtain
should be thrown on the burning
oil.

Effect on Digestion and Nerves

Laboratory experiments have
also indicated that when there is
a shortage of vitamin G, digestion
is usually impaired. In this re-
spect, a shortage of vitamin G has
a slightly different effect than a
deficiency of vitamin B. A def
mite lack of vitamin B causes an
abrupt and complete loss of appe-
tite. Withholding vitamin G APP
pears to affect the desire for food,
so that experimental animals con-
sumo only about two-thirds as
much as they would normally
take.
A form of nervous depression
may occur when the diet is low in
vitamin C for any protracted
length of time. Other unfortunate
consequences may be a decline in
the health of the skin. Studies
with animals indicated that when
the vitamin was withheld, not
only did a loss of weight occur,
but there were other signs of nu-
tritional failure. These included
an Inflammation of the mouth, a
loss of hair, a thickening and in
some cases, a cracking and seal
ing, of the skin.

of tan and green and blue would
be nice for the draperies with a

board at the top of the windows is
essential when plain valance is
used. This board should be four
inches wide and ~ inch thick. 1t

are placed just under it for the
glass curtains and side Grapes.
The plain valance should be long
enough to fit around the ends of
the board and should be about six
inches deep finished. 1t should
be stiffened with an interlining of
crinoline, and an allowance should
be made at the top for tuck or
fold to be tackled to the board as
shown.

Vitamin @ and Healthy Eyes

Studies with a variety of expert
mental animals resulted in the
startling disclosure that on diets
lacking vitamin C the health of
the eyes was distinctly affected.
Not only was there a loss of
hair around the eyes, but the eye
ball developed a whitish appear
ance which was determined to be
cataract.
At present, scientists are not
prepared to say whether these lab
oratorv findings may be confirmed
clinically. But certainly when we
know that in many ways, the food
requirements of experimental ami
mails are comparable to those in
man, it would be distinctly to our
advantage to make sure that we

to contain only half as much as
the leaves, while the stems con-
tain even less. Among the green's,
turnip tops and beet tops have
been found to be unusually rich.
Investigations indicate that weight
for weight, they are twice as rich
as eggs, though eggs are consid-
cred a good source.
Homemakers will be glad to
learn that heating does not appear
to destroy vitamin G. Canned
foods are therefore as good a
source as though they had not
been processed.
Milk must not be overlooked
For all practical purposes, and
chiefly because of the amounts in
which it is consumed, it is proba-
bly, our most important source OF
the G. vitamin.
One thing is certain. Home
makers should strive-nOt for
diets that are merely adequate in
vitamin G but for surplus
to help build high resistance. One
authority has advised a ration that
contains four times the amount
considered absolutely necessary.
The surplus should help to pro-
J vide a headstart toward the gOaE
of buOyant health.

Milk, Meat, Eqqs, Greens

The richest sources of vitamir
C are the concentrates of yeast,

most equally well supplied with
this vitamin are liver and kidney.
Muscle cuts of meat contain vita
min G., but in lesser amounts than
liver and kidney.
The vitamin is also found in
young green plants, and it is in
teresting to note that the vitamir
is formed during the growth of the
plant and decreases with matur-
ity. The amount of the vitamir
has been found to vary with differ
ent parts of the same plant. 1r

mount in their field seem to indi-
cate that vitamin G has a pro-
nounced effect upon the mainte-
nance of health and vigor at all
ages. 1t has been demonstrated
with experimental animals that a
diet containing more vitamin G
than is required for normal
growth resulted in greater vigor,
a postponement of the onset of
senility and a comparatively short
period of the mental and physical
infrmities we usually associate
with old age.

Sources of Vitamin @

Because vitamin G is closely as
ISOLATED with vitamin B, some
homemakers occasionally confuse
the two. This is not surprising,
inasmuch as it was some years
following the initial recognition of
vitamin B that scientists estab-
lished beyond a doubt that there
was more than one growth-pro-
noting vitamin. Subsequently,
they learned that while the sub
stance, later named vitamin G,
was frequently found in close as
sociation with vitamin B, such
was not always the case. For eX-
ample, vitamin G is known to oc-
cur without vitamin B in egg
white.

ECUADOR GIRL
FLIER MAY GET

CUBAN CONSUL REQUESTS
SPECIAL INVITATION FROM
COL. BATISTA; PRAISES
KEY WEST HOSPITALITY

Hcrnelinda Briones of Ecuador,
who was grounded in Key West
yesterday by Air Maneuvers Of
ficials and not permitted to con-
tinuc the cruise to Havana, may
set there after all.
Cuban Consul Berardo Rod
riguez has wired Col. Fulgencio
BatiSta, head of the Cuban Army,
asking that he send a special in
Vitation to the little Ecuadorian
girl. With a special invitation
Hernelinda need not go through
the long formaiity of clearing for
the customs.
In Havana today and tomor-
row are numerous festivities in
honor of the filters. Friday there
will be air races and Stunting eX-
hibitionS. Hernelinda told The
Citizen today that she became
quite humble" in beseeching
the cruise officials to let her con-
tinue the flight to Havana, but
that they would not.
The Ecuadorian flier landed al
Princeton to repair a tire which
had long nail in it, and this de-
lay caused her to be two hours
late in arriving at Key West
Cruise officials claimed also that
she was having motor valve
tlOuble.
A mechanic here looked over
the motor and discovered that
the valves were a little weak and
that there was much carbon in
the chambers, but that she might
continue the flight.
The plane is a petite Fleet,
which holds just enough gas for
three hours Of flight. The trip to
Havana is about an hour in the
Elect.
Helnelinda is profuse in her
praise of the hospitality of Key
West. The Cuban consul, Ber-
srdo Rodriguez, has aided her
greatly and has been very cour
teous.. She was guest of Fire
Chief Harry Baker and Mrs. Bak-
er last night at the home. Every
one here has been SO NICE, she
said.
