mankind. In medical research, es-
pecially in testing and standard
izing antitoxins, the younger ami
mails are required. Medical research
and other scientific Investigations
have created a demand for these
animals, but it is not advisable to
raise guinea pigs for scientific pur-
poses unless assured of a market.
AS pets, you can follow the same
rule and find out whether your
venture is likely to succeed or not.
For about four centuries, the
guinea pig was looked on as pet
and bred for show purposes. Being
a most plastic animal, it has
changed considerably from the first
domesticated cavy.
Guinea pigs belong to family
of rodents known as the Cavidae.
They are characterized by stout
bodies with legs of nearly equal
length, and short-in fact, very
abbreviated-tails. The family, as
we know it, is exclusively South
American, although about 20 species
and races have been described. The
origin of the domestic cavy or
guinea pig is unknown. When the
Spaniards invaded the Andean re-
gion of South America, guinea pigs
were found in great numbers in the
houses of the Indians, who used
them for food. These rodents were
carried to Europe by Dutch traders
during the 10th century, and since
have been kept in the Old World
and in North America mostly as
pets.
Besides the Smooth-haired forms,
there is the Peruvian, with very
long hair, and the Abyssinian, with
fairly long hair standing out in
strange rosettes all over the body.
The long-haired guinea pigs are not
recommended for ordinary pets, as
they need too many shampoos and
bruShingS.
Guinea pigs are gentle animals
with no mean traits. The same
diet provided for rabbits is ac-
ceptable TO them, as they are
strictly vegetarians. Oats, bran,
chopped grain and almost any kind
of green food will please them, but
you must be sure TO furnish them
with fresh clean drinking water, a
piece of rock salt and pan of dry
grain.
A mother guinea pig starts by
having one baby or twins the first
time, and may, when in her prime,
have as many as Is children each
! year. The babies have handsome,
furry coats on the day of birth, and
their eyes are wide open. When
or 3 days old, they scamper

Duncan Asks
Nation to Be
Patient
About Attack
Will Come in
Time, He SAYS

Patience until the Nation Is
ready for an "all-out offensive" was
counseled by Representative Richard
NJ. Duncan Of Missouri last night
in an address before members of
the Womens National Democratic
Council.
Speaking at a meeting at the
willard Hotel, Representative Dun
can said. We have been impatient
that more could not be done. But
when we feel impatience overcom-
ing US let us take counsel and try
TO analyze what q huge problem it
is to convert the industry Of the
greatest industrial Nation in the
world from its peacetime functions
to the aIl-out purposes of war. Ger
tainly no thoughtful man or woman
would want to sacrifice either our
men or our equipment before we
are ready to do the job," he con-
tinued.
The speaker declared that in
dustry and labor are entitled to
highest praise in their efforts to
prepare the Nation for an about
offensive.
When the time comes to strike
we will be ready with whatever It
takes" he declared.
Plans of battle and the time for
starting the offensive should be left
to trained military minds, the
Representative advised, but sacri-
fees in providing essentials to carry
the war forward must be borne by
every man, woman and child, he
declared.
I'VE must furnish the materials
and food and pay the bills even to
our last dollar" he added. The
cost In money will be beyond the
understanding of any of us, but
what Is money compared to our
right to live in our own land and
IN our own homes, free from the di-
rection Of any foreign nationP" he
continued.
Plans for "after the war" must
be given consideration now, Repre-
sentative Duncan said.
I'VE must be in a position when
we shall have won the war to win
the peace" he concluded. 1--WE
must be in position to reconvert
our great industries to peaceful pur-
suits in such manner as not to
destroy our democracy and our
American way of life, bearing in
mind, however, that the first Job
before us now is to win the war"
The speaker, who is a member
OF the House Ways and Means
Committee, was introduced by Mrs.
Paul Hammacher, the president.

The Clean and Neat Girl
Is the One Who Appeals

Girls who give evenings at COM
munity centers to entertain men in
uniform, discover that to do the
rhumba isn't enough to insure pop
ularity with boys in khaki and blue.
To dance well is an asset Of course,
but it counts lots more when the girl
herself is a dainty partner, whose
appearance from head-to-foot i'm
plies a wholesome acquaintance with
soap and water. In army or navy
life, boys quickly develop a deep
respect for cleanliness which makes
them critical Of anyone whose stand
ard in this respect Is not high.
Especially in hot summer months
the girl who wants TO be genuine
ly pleasant dance partner must be
careful about soap-and-water clean
nness. In every detail she should
be as though she had just stepped
from her bath-which, indeed, is
just what she must do. She would
have a poor opinion herself Of any
soldier who came TO dance straight
from maneuvers without a shower
and a change, and the rule applies
Just the same to her.

Nash Coffee
Will Use No
Substitutes

Roasters of high grade coffeees
will not use substitutes, contrary
to recent publicity, A. E. Selby,
Manager of the Nash Coffee Com
pany, stated this week.
at is unfortunate that there
has been so much publicity about
coffee roasters using chicory or
ersatz filters in coffee, due to ra-
Joining" Mr.. Selby said.
"The folly of such a policy is
shown by the fact that the amount
of coffee permitted each consumer
under rationing is less than the
amount of high grade coffees avail
able to roasters. There is no rea-
son at all why coffee roasters
should desire to adulterate their
brands. l am confident that the
well-known nationally advertised
brands of coffee will continue to
offer the public the same high
standard of quality that has made
these brands the public favorites. "
To make the limited amount of
coffee available to the public go
further, Mr.. Selby offered these
suggestions to the housewife:
l. Use only high-grade coffee
it goes farther.
2. Steep the beverage longer in
your brewing equipment.

Horses Need Worm Treatment

Horses Need Worm Treatment
There are still more than 10 mil
lion horses and 4 million mules in
the United States and, all together,
they are worth well over a billion
dollars. Scientists say it is excep-
tional to find a horse entirely free
from redworms which destroy in
festival tissues. remove blood and
cut off the blood supply, form cysts,
and block the intestines.
Farm horses are even more heavi-
ly infested than town horses. To re-
move and destroy these worms, Du
Point chemists advise that recon-
mended dosages Of phenothiazine
should be administered, preferably
by a veterinarian. To kill the para
sites in the droppings, before they
enter the horse, about IS or Is
pounds Of synthetic urea per ton Of
feces will do the trick. However,
since urea and other forms of nitro
gen which give control outside the
animal are scarce, proper handling
and disposal Of manure is even more
important than ever.

BIackOut Driving

What should you do II it becomes
necessary to drive your car in a
blackout?
Three basic rules are suggested.
They are:
/. When in doubt about what Is
ahead, get out Of the car and inves-
tigate.
2. Never drive faster than is miles
per hour through a residential Sec
ton, and even less while driving
through an intersection.
3. Before starting to drive wait
from 10 to Is minutes until your
eyes become adjusted to the dark
ness.
It should be remembered, how
ever, that these rules are for emer-
gency driving only. The best place
for your car during a blackout is
in the garage.

J. R.: This is my last year in high
school and all the girls in my class
are getting jobs after school hours.
l would like to have a decent job
to make Christmas money. My
trouble is that l am afraid to ask
for a job.
Ans: Nobody is going around
handing out jobs on a silver plat
ter. You must change your atti-
tude entirely. 1t isn't a disgrace to
ask for a job . . it only shows in
itiative and ambition. There are
numerous jobs to be had now and
you should have no trouble at all
getting one. Why not run an ad-
vertisement in the paper for part
time work?
". G.: am writing to ask you
should I go ahead and join the Navy
now or finish my years work in
school?
Ans: This is a question that ev-
cry man must decide for himself.
AlthO you are exceedingly young,
if you sincerely feel that you should
enter the services of your country
at this time, then you must follow
the dictates of your own heart. 1t
is a wonderful spirit you are show
ing the spirit that will Ultimate
ly win the war. If the Navy appeals
to you more than any other branch
of service, then by all means choose
what would be most eongenial to
you.
c. My cousin came here to
visit me and I thought she had
come here TO see me. But the way
she acts behind my back makes me
think she came to see my husband.
She just shows all smiles to him
and seems like she is mad when 1
am around. They look so funny to-
gether and talk low when I am out
of the room. Now l love my hus-
band and l don't want my home
upset. What must l do about my
trouble?
Ans: Generosity is all right in
its place but when it comes to
sharing your husband that's
the last straw. The die is cast now
and it is too late to cry over split
milk. To insist that she leave would
only make your husband take sides
with her. What you need to do is
to divert your cousins attention
from your husband to some other
man. Why not have a party for her
and invite some of the eligible men
in your town to meet her? As soon
as you get some other man inter-
