Choose Good
Brush for
Gift List
! Select Excellent
Quality Bristles
For Long Wear
By PATRICIA LINDSAY.

During the rush Of gift buying
one is quite likely to forget that an
appropriate brush Is gratefully re-
ceived.
A long-handled brush for scrub
bing ones back Is an excellent gift
for any person, and if you accom-
pany it with bars of easy-lather,
nicely-scented soap it becomes a
gift de luxe! For shower devotees,
there is an oval, squatty affair with
q big hole in its short handle by
which you may hang it to drain. As
both these brushes are constantly
used in water, their lives are shorter
than the average brush and there
fore extras" are always welcomed.
Now let us get down to shaving
brushes men still use them
you know, even though electric
razors are in vogue. And a man
who does use q shaving brush likes
1t to be a good one. Otherwise.
shedding bristles interfere with his
face grooming and irk his good
humor!
Shaving brushes run from IS
cents to as high as $500 IN cost.
Yes, I actually held in my hand q
shaving brush worth $500. Its
bristles were beautifully graduated
from long ones in the middle to
very short ones, and so soft they
felt like down as / brushed them
against my cheek.
Experts tell me that good shaw
ing brush, which will stand up un-
der constant use, cannot be pro-
duced for less than IS, but the
average price paid by man is $3.50.
That. may guide you If you plan to
give hubby one in his stocking.
Those which have q standing rack
for draining are liked by men, for q
shaving brush should be rinsed well
each time it is used and so hung or
placed that its bristles will dry
quickly. It should never be stood
on its handle, for that permits the
water to run down into the roots OF
the bristles, which rotS them.
For the boy or girl at school Cor
for any person who travels a lot) ,
there Is a very excellent tooth
brush which fits inside its own han
die when not in use. Thus you have
a case for it when you wish to pack
it. This has genuine bristles and
comes in a smart box with q can
of good tooth powder.
Another brush gift for the teen
age (either boy or Crib is one for
face scrubbing. Such a brush has
specially soft bristles and Is classed
as a complexion brush" and
usually has bar of bland complex
ion soap as companion. Use OF
the brush will discourage the ap-
pearance of the all-too-prevalent
adolescent bad skin.
For friends who have pets there
is an array Of brushes from which
to choose, and the lady who is de-
voted to her dog will scream with
glee If you send her a brush fol
his coat, tied with a big sprig Of
holly. The salesman ut the pet
counter will aid you with your selec-
ton, for I haven't the space to pratt
| tie on about pets and their needs!

medicines or other methods-and he
goes to great pains to prove it.
He was himself a fatty" he says.
He knows all the sufferings endured
by other "fatties" In the eternal
battle against excess weight. Be-
cause Of this, he has much more
sympathy for the victim than do
most wiry and skinny" dieticians
or reducing experts.
Mr.. Lindlahr first became famous
through his broadcasts on weight
reducing and the tested diet plan he
instigated. His interest in this field
started early in his career, when his
father, spurred by a European die
tician's success, returned to this
country and opened up a consulting
office Of his own. This developed
into full-hedged sanitarium, and
1t was there that the author of this
book got his start in the mysteries
Of diet for health and beauty.
Many tests persuaded him that q
number Of the common foods, be-
sides being protective (full Of vita
minis and other necessary values)
were actually reducing in their ef-
feet on the metabolism of the con-
sumer. Bearing this in mind, he
evolved a diet, where these reduc-
ing elements-which he christened
"catabolic foods"-were made to "do
their stuff" in conjunction with other
meats, vegetables, etc.
The book contains this seven-day
diet in detail: q list of substitutions
which may be made on occasion; q
table of calories that is clearer and
better laid out than any have ever
seen; list of the "catabolic foods, u
and weight table that seems to be
an excellent one. maybe I Ike 1t

Another Book
About Eggs.
Here is q compact and helpful
little volume that deals solely with
eggs. How'll You Have Your Eggs?'
by Ann Fraser, published by Loker
Raley of New York, Is a useful addi-
ton to the kitchen bookshelf. II
you get mighty tired Of eggs done
the same old ways, this will give you
some new and fresh ideas at the
turn Of q page.
The recipes are grouped under
headings indicating the cooking
process, such as Baked" Boiled
Cold" Boiled, Hot" "Omelets," etc
There a1e sections on raw eggs, on
Dounes, and on puddings. The only
thing that ind lacking IS a short
section devoted to the fundamental
process Of cooking eggs in the vari-
GUS ways-for instance, there is no

Every Christmas season finds the
negligee departments full Of inter-
ested shoppers, but from the looks
Of things this year is going to fnd
the robes enjoying a new high In
favor And there are several
reasons for 1t.
In the first place we can't recall
Z season when you could get more
for your money. Robes that look
as though they cost fortune some
how turn out to be suited to your
budget, and styles which formerly
appeared only in the high-price
brackets have now been adapted to
the lower ones. Not only that,
but the styles are so smart and
varied There are heavy, warm
robes for cold -blooded folks whose
idea Of heavn is to snuggle into
quilted wrap-around; there are
slinky, jersey hostess gowns that
could easily go supper dancing; for
the very mature ladies on your list
there are reversible wrap-aroundS
Of the type that they always adore,
and other styles In every conceivable
size, style and color are yours for
the asking. If there are a number
OF ladies on your list we can't think
Of an easier way to do up your
shopping than by choosing a hostess
gown or robe for each. From SUBJ
debutante daughter to great-grand-
mother there are appropriate models.
Warm Robes Are
Attractive.
One improvement that recent
years has brought about Is the
change in robes designed especially
for warmth. Quilted ones have
dainty floral designs and extremely
flattering lines; chenille robes come
In all colors, and the candlewick
types, which are just as long-wear-
ing as the bedspreads, appear in q
variety of colors and styles. Match
ing slippers are presented with the
latter. -. The beauty Of these robes
lies not only in their appearance,
but also In their very low price. Re-
Gently we looked at some that
wouldn't even make q dent in your
budget, but will make an impress
sion deep and lasting on the re-
eipient.
One Of our favorites, getting into
q bit higher price range, is q robe
of cotton that looks and feels like
fur. Soft, luxurious and as warm
as toast, this robe also has its
matching slippers. In white or col
ors, it looks as though you were
bundled into q mass Of fur-and 1t
feels just as luscious.
Among other fabrics, we've found
flannel taking on an entirely new
personality. No longer is it noted

to their favorite form of competi-
tion-medal play.
Witty Cox may or may not stick
to his intention to pass up future
P. G. A. championships. But there
are plenty of pros who feel as he
does who would come back to a P.
G. A. tournament if it was plaeyd at
medal play for about 10 grand.
Mac Smith would come back. He
hasn't played in a P. G. A. match
play affair for good many years.
But at the same time there are lots
of younger pros who consider it quite
an honor to qualify for the match
play championship, particularly
when they get part of their trans
portation merely for getting into
the tournament.
Maybe it's too late to do anything
about the championship for 1889,
since that would be matter for
the annual meeting to consider, but
it won't surprise any one connected
with pro golf to see the P. G. A.
convert the championship into a
medal play affair. 1t would take
something fine and spectacular out
of the game, but the pros want it
that way.
