= Here's Some Good Time-Tested Advice g

With folks all around suffering with
contagious colds, be just as careful
as you can-and you may avoid a
lot of sickness, trouble and worry.
Follow these simple rules of health:
Live normally. Avoid excesses. Eat
simple food. Drink plenty of water.
Keep elimination regular. Beware of
wet feet and drafts. Take some
exercise ALPHABETICALLY outdoors.
Get plenty of rest and sleep.
Then use these two time-tested
treatments when needed.
At the FIRST SIGN or A sniFFlE,
ShEEzE OR NASAL IRRITATION. &. :. put a
few drops of Vicks Vd-tro-nol up each
nostril right away. This helps to
prevent many colds from develop
ing, because Va-tro-nol is expressly
designed to help Natures own
defenses against colds. (If a head
cold causes stuffiness, you'll find
that few drops of Va-tro-nol helps
clear the clogging mucus and makes
breathing freer and easier.)

I might tell this girl Who thinks
that her parents gave her nothing
because they did not give her money
that she has had something that
very few rich girls ever have, and
that is her mothers personal atten-
ton. She was not turned over to a
baby specialist when she was born.
She was not brought up by a gov
erness. Her mother was not
strange lady whom she only saw at
stated intervals and with whom she
never got acquainted. Her mother
was just part of her daily and hourly
life, somebody who cuddled her and
kissed her and tucked her into her
bed at night and heard her PRAYERS;
who kissed her hurts and made them
well; who was never too tired
or too busy to listen to her and talk
to her. Many little millionairesses
are the loneliest creatures in the
world. Poor children who have
mothers are never lonely.
And I might tell my Little Rebel
though she won't believe me that
she has far better chance of being
happily married than any glamor
girl has. To begin with, the poor
girl knows that the man who marries
her marries her for herself alone.
He marries her because he loves her
and not because he wants her money.
Rich girls are beset by fortune hunt
ers, and so suspicious do they become
Of mems motives in courting them
that many of them never marry at
all. In no other class of women are
there so many old maids as among
the millionairesses.
Furthermore, the heiress seldom
makes a success Of marriage because
her whole life and training have
untitled her for the sacrifices that
marriage inevitably demands. She
Is spoiled, selfish, self-indulgent, ar
rogant, believing that the whole
world, her husband included, must
kotoW to her, and these qualities do
not make for happiness in the home.
That is why most rich women's mar
rtages are series of divorces.

BY FRANCESCA MCKINNEY.
OUR SCOUTS SUGGEST:

OUR SCOUTS SUGGEST:
That you get a steam electric iron
If you have to do much pressing.
This iron holds a pint of water, and
as long as it Is kept filled it is i'm
possible to scorch your clothes.
Using this iron saves lot Of time,
as you can take the articles off the
line and press them without sprinkl-
ing first. Press woolens and rayon
pieces on the right side, without
an ironing cloth and it will not
leave shine. Another household
help. ..
Give your child luck charm to
wear made of tiny pair of bead
embroidered Indian moccasins.
Youngsters love novelties Just as
much as do grown-ups.
For the paper wedding anniver-
sary gift there is box of Gone
With the Wind" letter paper. The
box Is covered with characters from
the famous book and now famous
movie. Select either ivory, white
or powder blue letter paper. There
are "a sheets and envelopes to a

carved birds delicately tinted to ac-
cent color note in your room.
When the crowd drops in Sunday
evening for a bite of supper, serve
them waf1es. The new double au-
| tomato electric waffle iron is fine
for these occasions. Pour the batter
in, close and lock the top, turn iron
over and repeat performance on the
other side. Two whole waffles will
be ready at the same time instead
Of just one. -.
One Of the smartest highball sets
seen in long time consists of a
chromium tray and eight crystal
clear glasses. Each glass fits into
chromium holder and no matter
how much you tilt the tray the
glasses always stay rightside UP, so
that it is just about impossible to
spill drop of liquid. :.
Start saving now for your Easter
week end SO you can join the gang
for a trip out of town. Get your
self metal bank. and each evening
before going to bed put Just as
much change as you can spare into
the bank. Before you know it you
will have $40, with this bank filled
to the top. This bank has special
places to put nickels, dimes, quar-
tiers and half dollars; take your
choice as to which one of the sec
tions you wish to fill first, or put
something in each one every day.
The child who is frightened in
the dark would appreciate one of
the wee BEDSIDE lamps that work on
little dry-ceil batteries. No plugging
into a socket or having to worry
about extension cords because the
wall plug isn't near the bedside
table! One of these lamps would
be a thrilling gift for some child
who lives in the country (real coun-
try) where oil lamps are the only
method of lighting the home. These
lamps are miniatures of the old
fashion oil lamps with the glass
chimney shades; another style is a

FRENCH POACHED EGGS.
This recipe is requested so often

You may have wondered how in the
world the big chefs turn out those

cealed from view. Here's how IT.
done:
Put about 3 pints of boiling
water in deep saucepan. Add l
tablespoon vinegar, and "a table
spoon salt. Stir hard around and
around the edge of the pan while
the water boils hard-to start it
swirling in one direction. When a
"well" forms in the middle of the
water, break an eggshell gently, and
drop the egg directly into the well" +"
Lower heat, and let cook until the
white is set. "a very short time)
Remove the egg carefully with a
skinner, and trim any "whiskers"
off until the egg is nicely shaped
and smooth.
BY the way, have you ever tried
making scrambled eggs in a double
boiler? It's slower than the usual
method-but so much better. The
eggs are deliciously light and fluffy.
I usually add milk to the eggs and
beat them together well before
pouring them over a big lump of
butter sitting in the top section Of
the double boiler. While the eggs
are cooking, they should be stirred
frequently with fork to help make
them fluffy.

Solid Mahoeany

1t will be pleasing to many to
learn that solid mahogany furniture
is to be found in the better furniture
stores today. This furniture is not
high priced as might be expected
but In the medium price range.
Solid mahogany furniture today,
as in the past, is made Of plain,
straight-grained mahogany lumber.
1t depends upon fine and simple
lines for beauty rather than highly
figured surfaces. Highly figured
mahogany, such as crotch, swirl or
mottle, is practical and available
only in the form Of outer surfaces Of

MRS. F. BIC.
Answer
I envy you the fun you will have
doing this room! I would suggest
primrose or butter yellow for the
walls, painted surface that will
wash. You may purchase unpainted
shelves and cupboards that will hold
the toys and books. These should
not be higher than your grandson
can reach with ease 1t is a good
plan to screw them to the walls
with two long screws so that in
case he climbs up on the front of
them they will not tip over on him.
Drawers are very difficult for little
child to manipulate. but you may
place drop-down fronts on the
lowest shelves of the bookcases
which may be opened easily and
serve as "hideaway" place.
If you will set aside one wall space
and cover it with sheet cork so

Dorothy Dix Says go
Poor Children Have Greatest
Chance for Real Happiness

A girl Of 16 who signs herself
Little Rebel" writes me letter in
which she says that she does not
think that poor people should have
any children. What right" she
asks had my father and mother
to bring me into the world when
all that they could give me was
poverty? am young. I am pretty.
I want pleasure and gayety. I want
lovely clothes and furs and jewels.
I want a beautiful home and a
place in society. I want a car.
want to 60 to night clubs and have
my picture in the papers and for
people to turn and look at me on
the street. I want to be a glamor
girl instead of shabby little clerk,
wearing cheap finery and make
neve silk stockings. I want every
thing. I have nothing. And there
are millions Of girls like me. Parents
expect their children to be grateful
to them for bringing them into the
world, but when all they give us
Is life of hardships we've got
nothing to thank them for. So I
think that poor people who can't
give their children advantages
should not have them"
OF course, one might tell the girl
who rebels at not having been born
with whole set Of silver spoons in
her mouth that If only the rich had
children the race would soon run
out, not only numerically but in
point of physical and mental ability.

women who have struggled up from
dire poverty to fame and fortune,
but it doesn't take many pages to
list the names Of those who in
herited vast wealth who have ever
accomplished anything worth re-
cording.
1t is natural that young people
should want all of the good things
of life presented to them on a sill

fortune rather than a blessing to be

brown eggs. Partisanship on this
subject has long waxed high and
heated-but there's no point to it
after all. Food experts have assured
us for years that the food value
and flavor of white eggs are exactly
the same as of brown eggs-provid-
ing, of course, that the eggs are
both Of the same quality and age!
This brown versus white business
seems to have been built up largely
by communicating people of one
city preferring brown eggs, and
those of another buying nothing but
white. 1t really doesn't matter one
way or another, as long as hens
continue to lay eggs! Whether you

MRS. G. c. D.
Answer
You might do an interesting color
scheme with walls Of white, pale
yellow or pink. My choice would be
the pink. BY this 1 do not mean
baby pink, but a shade that looks
as though you used brick dust with
lots of white in it. The walls and
ceiling I would make very light and
the trim several shades darker. At
the windows would use a printed
washable percale or calico with a
white ground and the blue green
and brick colors in the pattern, with
blue green ric-rac for edging. This
color would blend in with the floor
and the doors and be a nice contrast
to the cool green. 1t will need white
to light it up.
