STORAGE SPACE;
BABY'S SHAMPOO HINT.

(ThankS to Mrs. E. NJ, KenSingtonJ
To Miss E. C. D. in answer to her
'funny one" maybe these sugges-
tionS will help:
Try the laundry company again,
for their storage space accommoda-
tions change from time to time.
You might fold the draperies
firmly, fasten securely, cover with
strong cardboard or thin board and
s,aape into a corner ottoman, either
for looks or use.
You might hang them across one
wall, behind a buffet or without;
part In center, hang with long mir
ror and bookcase or table beneath
mirror. It might give illusion of
more space.
Some modern tables have sides
that would conceal nice fiat pack
age fastened to the bottom of the
leaves in the table.
Some furniture, like benches and
chairs have space underneath the
seats, where a package could be
UGUGu anu 1dobCklCAs AliC oAkP SoNSA
would hang down below and cover
all.
You might make them into a long
fiat package and fasten onto the
back of your headboard on the bed.
Some bathrooms have, or can
have fitted, a shelf over the door,
way on the bothroom side, that will
hold packages nicely wrapped
against moisture.
If you have car, you might find
places there.
You might get long, low box to
rest on the floor under the bed.
These are pretty satisfactory for
storage space.
Hang at either side of a doorway.
Suggestion for mothers of young
babies:
Have you ever tried little baby
Oil or vaseline used sparingly across
the forehead of the baby just be-
fore shampooing the babys head?
The water will trickle to the edge
of the oil and not run down into the
baby's eyes. Use tiny path Of 1t
around the outside of the face at the
eye area to protect the eyes from
soapy water

DIPHTHERIA CASES
INCREASING HERE

Ten cases, of diptheria in the
county within the past month yes
terday prompted DR.. A. H. FL
lott, city-county health officer to
warn mothers to have toxoid adj
ministered to their children "be-
fore winter is here"
DR.. Elliot said there is no cause
for alarm at the number of cases,
but did declare that 'ten cases is
too many for this time of the
year"
With the beginning of cooler
weather, some diptheria is expect
ed, he explained. But the greatest
amount does not appear until Sc
we're winter weather arrives.
DR.. Elliot said there were four
cases in September, and that six
cases have been reported thus far
in October.
Toxoid affords almost complete
protection from the disease, DR..
Elliot said. However, for it to, be-
come effective in building up i'm
nifty in the body, several months
are required after administration
OF the vaccine.
Diptheria is an infection, local
lied in the throat, which affects
the general system, and sometimes
permanently harms the heart or
muscles.
