Argentine President
Forces Resignation
Of Foreign Minister
By the Associated Press.

BUENOS AIRES, Jan. 16.-Presi.
dent Edelmiro Farrell, at the behest
OF War Minister Juan Peron, TO-DAY
demanded and obtained the resig.
nation OF Foreign Minister Orlando
Peluffo In what appeared to pe 9
test of strength among Argentina's
army rulers.
Gen. Peluffo, who only a week age
was rebuffed by the Pan American
Union in attempting to win an in
ternational hearing on his country's
wartime policies, said in a brief
statement that Gen. Farrell re-
quested him to step down. mot
for reasons connected with my off,
cial functions but because
of my points of view regarding the
governments recent orientation of
domestic matters
Three other Foreign Ministry Off
cials resigned with Gen. Peluffo
Nor Is the foreign minister himself
the only key figure who has fallen in
recent days. Three other army
leaders are no longer at their gov
ernment posts. Their names can
not be revealed without infringing
the nations continuing state of
siege regulations.
All these changes are declared in
many quarters to be leading up to a
presidential election-with Col Pc
ron, now Vice President as well as
war minister, as candidate.
Peluffo Widely Praised.
Gen. Peluffo has enjoyed great
prestige among his army colleagues
In government ranks for his stand
on diplomatic disputes with the
United States.
He is said to have thrown the
full weight of this prestige against
a program supported by Col. Peron
for return of constitutional norm
alley through assumption by civil
ians of key posts in the provincial
nistrations-posts from which
the next presidential election could
be controlled.
There was considerable specula-
ton that Gen. Peluffo's move was
not entirely disassociated with the
Pan-American Unions rebuff.
The three other foreign Office off,
cials who submitted their resigna-
tions were Mario Amadeo, chief of
the political section; Horadio Tur-
dera, special political legal adviser.
and Maj. Jose Embrione, secretary
general of the ministry.

That Famous Fruit!

Apples and the autumn are prac-
tically synonymous In my mind
although. of course, nowadays we
do have apples on tap the year
around. However, with the coming
OF the short, crisp days OF early
fall, I invariably find myself re-
membering the laden apple trees
in my erandfather's orchard-the
wonderful Grimes Goldens, the
Alhemarle Pippins and the long
lost, smoky-tasting Russets. Why
are there no more Russet apples
I wonder7 OF all that great fruit
family. they were tops.
Apples have been called mans
greatest friend in the vegetable
kingdom. From the time 1t is said
to have caused such an upheaval
in the Garden of Eden, the apple
has followed man in his peregrina-
tions through the centuries. In
Greece, its name was applied to
sheep and all other forms Of wealth,
for sheep In the ancient days were
considered the true representatives
of property. This is further indi-
Gated, for example, by the word
"pecuniary," derived from the Latin
"pecunia." money, which was coined
originally from the Latin "pecus," a
flock of sheep.
Myths involving the apple are
legion-Aphrodites apple Of discord.

the youth and vigor of the Morse

Atalanta her famous race. Azreal
the angel of death, is believed to
perform his mission by holding an
apple to the nose OF the dying.
In Arabian legend, the apple is a
healer-possibly that is where we get
the old jingle, IAN apple a day
keeps the doctor away" In medi-
eval Europe, apples were considered
an infallible cure for warts, fevers,
jaundice and dysentery. Modern
remedies for the last mentioned are
based on pectin, present in large
amounts in apples)
Apples have played their part in
the rituals of courtship and mar
riage. Even Horace mentioned the
custom Tipping apple seeds at the
ceiling-if one stuck there, the flip
per would be lucky in love and
have all his or her wishes granted.
We all know the custom Of throw
ing apple peelings over the shoulder
on Halloween to see what initials
are formed by the long curl Of peel
when 1t falls to the floor.
Selection and improvement Of the
fruit was being worked on more
than two thousands years ago. Pliny
mentions the trick of grating to
obtain better apples. Espaliered ap-
pie trees we're found in all the an
cient monastery and castle gardens
and orchards we're tended lovingly
and watched by the early Romans,
who brought their knowledge and
experience to England, to open a
new era Of apple culture.

A pretty face isn't enough reason
for marriage, but it lures many a
man to the altar. Yet 1t is the one
thing on which he is bound to lose
out, for beauty inevitably fades with
time and then, If the living picture
turns into q chrome and If the wife
whom the man has spent his life
supporting has neither wit nor wis
dom nor tenderness nor kindness.
he gets a mighty poor run for his
money.
Physical attraction is not enough
to marry on because that, too, does
not last. Passion perishes of safety.
1t must forever have something new
and different with which to whet its
appetite, and there are no husbands
and wives so bored with each other
as those who had nothing but a
bodily appeal which has worn out.
Even home isn't enough to marry
for, because, cynically enough, the
dream of place that is to be bit
OF heaven on earth leads more men
and women into matrimony than
anything else, so often turns into
nothing but a mirage that never
materializes. So many men, fed up
on cafeterias and boarding houses
and club cooking, marry to get home
comforts, only to discover that their
wives are allergic to the kitchen and
can't even make coffee that isn't a
menace to life. So many women
who give up good jobs to marry be-
cause they long for the domestic
life, find that they have sold them
selves into slavery.
What, then, justifies marriage?
think only two things do. One Is
companionship. congeniality, some
one with whom you never talk out,
who never bores you, who never gets
on your nerves. The other thing is
to be very sure that the one you
marry has the same purposes and
ambitions In life that you have.
If we had to justify our marriages
as we have to show causes for why
we get divorces, there would be no
divorces,

Teen Tips on Beauty

problem Is to take care Of all such
details before you start out and
then forget about yourself bit Of
advice that applies to many beyond
the teen category.
Beauty, another component Of
glamour dsn't 1t the truth?), Is
based solely on the twin factors OF
physical care and good health, said
Miss Stuyvesart, to chorus OF
seconding ayes from the beauty
editors in the audience at the
screening. The cleaning teeth.
glossy hair and glowing skin that
we envy In Great Beauties, all de-
pend on cleanliness. In fact, one
of the points emphasized in this
film of teen-agers Is that nobody
can have good looks without soap
and water, point to keep in mind
at any age.
Next to cleanliness. sleep is a
must" for the glamour seekers.
For the growing girl, eight or nine
hours sleep are necessary-and a
slightly lower schedule for the older
ones. There's no doubt about 1t.
Sleep will stand you in good stead
beautyWise at any age. Exercise Is
important, too, not only from q fig-
ure standpoint. but for the toned
up muscles and resulting good cir
culation that contribute to facial
glow.
When it comes to eating most
women from teens on UP offend the
tenets of good diet. Whether you're
in high school or an active career
woman, soda pop and sandwiches
do not constitute a balanced diet,
and all the things you want for
beauty-the white teeth, lovely hair
and soft skin we stressed-begtn
with a balanced diet.
Good posture will gloss over a
multitude of figure faults If it
doesn't actually correct them. The
way you stand and sit is not only
a subject important to health (or
have you heard that too often?)-
but it's equally important to good
looks. 1t should be obvious that
the best-looking clothes in the world
can't do the whole job unless you
give them a certain amount of sup-
port. Although mimicking Holly
wood actresses makeup is beauty
pursuit that may lead to ludicrous
results, it's a good idea to study
closely their posture. the way they
walk, the way they carry themselves
and the manner in which they sit
down. It's fine art in which they
are perfectionists.
This film, produced by a company
whose creams are famous for simple
beauty routines, also stresses point
ers on makeup and clothes for teen-
ayers and may be obtained on re-
quest by any school interested in
teaching its students the ABCis OF
good grooming.

Dorothy Dix Says

Each Of our States has Its own
particular ideas about what consti-
tutes q good and valid reason for
divorce, which Is why you can be
perfectly legal and honorable hus-
band or wife in one locality and
bigamist in another. Naturally this
uncertainty as to ones matrimonial
status and having to bootleg ones
mate across State lines, has given
rise to many complications and law
suits. Hence 1t is wonder that
no one has ever tried to figure out
what are the grounds that entitle
people to marry, as well as to get
divorces.
Yet surely one is as important as
the other. Indeed, our happiness
depends far more upon our getting
a life partner OF whom we never
weary than 1t does upon being able
to get rid Of one for whom we have
lost our taste. What we need to
know how to pick 'em instead Of
how to ditch em, and to be able to
give some good, solid reason for why
we risk our whole future we'll being
on marriage license.
OF course, the romantic theory Is
that the thing that entities people
to get married is love, but that love,
just OF itself, is not sufiicient grounds
for marriage Is amply proved by the
fact that in this country. where
practically every marriage is love
match, one out Of every fve ends
in divorce. Sentiment has to be
nourished to be kept alive. and not
much love survives poverty and
hard work and shabbiness.
On the other nand, the desire for
money Is not enough reason for
marrying. Domestic happiness is
not one Of the things that Is sold
over the counter, and there are no
men and women who are so disillu-
stoned and so embittered as those
who find that they have enslaved
themselves to get luxuries that have
turned to dead seafruit in their
han nds

suGARLEss FRUIT CAKE;
COD LIVER OIL STAINS.

GOD LIVER OIL STAINS.
From Mrs. E. J. P, Washington
Several weeks ago some one made
request for fruit cake recipe
requiring no sugar. Here is one I
have been using the year round for
a good many years.
Unbaked Fruit Cake Is pounds)- -
One cup orange peel, cup lemon
peel, / cup citron, / cup candied
pineapple, / cup candied cherries, /
cup dates. / cup light raisins, cup
dark raisins, cup figs, cup wal
nuts, cup pecans.
Cut all as for regular fruit cake.
One cup butter or substitute. 2 tea
spoons cinnamon, teaspoon mace
and other spices If desired, 2 tea
spoons vanilla, teaspoon lemon, !
pound graham crackers rolled fine,
salt to taste, l cup honey, ! to 2
teaspoons nutmeg.
Cream butter and honey (would
suggest using butter substitute that
does not get rancid II intending to
keep this some time); add flavor
ings, then pour over the cut fruit
and let stand several hours or over
night. Then add spices and salt to
rolled graham crackers and mix all
ingredients thoroughly.
Pack in wax paper lined pans and
set in cool place.
l hope I am not being too long,
but here is suggestion for mothers
like myself that are always getting
cod liver oil on baby clothes. Place
piece of absorbent cotton under
the spot. Use another piece of cot
ton and dampen the spot we'll with
rubbing alcohol. Let dry complete
ly and then wash.
ANTS ON CLOTHESLINES.
From Mrs. L. E. H., Silper Spring
For the lady inquiring about black
ants on her wire clotheslines. T.,
too, had the same trouble, but found
by putting some kerosene or gaso-
line around the posts where the line
is fastened it kept the ants from
getting on the line.
(From Mrs. T. E. H.. Mclean, Va. J
To the lady who has ants on her
clothesline, try this:
After you have wiped them of
and put up the clothes, wipe around
the supports of the lines with oil of
sassafras or oil Of peppermint. You
might put ring Of raw cotton
around the supports, saturated with
the oil, which should block the ants
on their way to the lines. Put a bit
more oil on this cotton each wash
day.
Or you could use a small paint
brush to make this ring instead of
using cotton. The oil would last
longer applied this way. Try to
keep the clothes away from the
oiled posts.
USING OLD HATS.
From Mrs. J. A. c., Washington
In response to DR.. L. D. HIS ques-
tion, Can any one tell me use for
old straw and felt hats2"

ages 50 inches in combined length

in error in mentioning 20 inches.

mitted), sugar, dehydrated soups,

From Mrs. A. M. c., Washington
Recently relatives of mine in
France replied to my inquiry as to
what they preferred as gift.
They stated that tea or coffee,
which has been unavailable since
the war began, are very much de-
sired. Additional items mentioned
were soap, tobacco and baking soda.
Inasmuch as the French customs
will open the packages for inspec-
tion, all should be tied with strong
cord even if sealed with mucilage
tape. The reason is that cord is
scarce and the French customs can
reuse the cord to close the pack
ages.
To specifically answer Miss B. F.,
I sent in one box / pound of orange
pekoe tea, one box of soda. concen-
trated coffee and some soap. I filled
the remaining space with little
packages of chocolate.
To protect the articles from
moisture and contamination
wrapped each one in cellophane

with a hot iron. These cellophane
wrappings may be purchased where
