The rivalry, it is explained, boils
down generally to struggle for

Cut Food Bills By Careful
Planning and Wise Buying
By IDA BAILEY ALLEN

THE amount it is costing to feed
a family of four in the localities we
have covered, varies directly with
the skill of the marketer, and the
cost level of the foods.
In the eastern Atlantic States,
ocean fish costs less than in the mid
west, because it is caught on the
east coast. Carrots, iceberg lettuce
and many other vegetables grown in
the Imperial Valley of California,
cost less in that state than they do
in New York City because of the
high cost of transportation. There
fore, in purchasing your food try
to buy items that do not call for
much transportation; as far as pos
sible buy foods of your locality.
Food Bills
Women spend so per cent of all
the money expended for food. and in
many households the food bills eat
up half of the weekly income. To
come out even fairly well tinan-
cially, you will have to shop several
stores TO find the best values. Sub
stitute alternate lower-priced foods
for those of higher price, if they are
outside your budget"
Watch for weekend specials. Buy
foods with little waste. and pur,
chase only meat trimmed free of eX-
cess bone, waste and fat before
weighing. For instance: A list Of

"Now, Mom," Dicky said re-
proachfully, you must remember
the Chiefs big boy now, he can
wipe his own nose, and wash behind
his ears n'everything. He probably
stopped in for a plate Of goulash
somewhere"
The picture Of my stately father
stopping in anywhere for the kind
of food he detests, combined with
Dicky's nonsense, relaxed my fears
with an involuntary chuckle.
That's BETTER" my husband said.

PROTECTING against the bane-
full B o is not just summer re-
sponsibility, but an all-the-year-
round duty. The sweater season ap-
proaches and the exudations of the
sweat glands cling to wooden gar
ments. Any girl who suffers from
this atfliction need not be surprised
if she is side-stepped socially. And
there is no sense bearing with it.
1t is the exceptional case that cam
not be corrected by rousing
scrubbing in the tub every day,
fresh indies and the use of de-
odorant.
Any physician will tell the victim
of this trouble that closing the pores
in the arm pits will have no bad
effect upon the health; there are
millions of other pores to carry on
the work of elimination and they
will take over.
Convenient Form
On cosmetic counters there are
remedies in various forms, liquids,

powders, creams. A new offering is
in convenient and attractive form.
1t is a dependable, packable tube
containing a cream that can be con-
veniently applied to the flesh in half
a jiffy. 1t is unbrcakable; you can
tuck it away with your other good
looks props.
Nervousness will stimulate the
sweat glands. Girls and women who
are tense and emotional are often
bothered with moist skin.
"And what" asks the iumpy
nervous lady, twill cure my jit-
ters?" The answer is found in
mental hygiene, plus a well-organ-
lied life. One must slow up, avoid
excitement as much as one can,
have periods of rest when one can
talk things over with oneself. Worry
upsets the nervous system, starts
all the bells to jangling.
The doctor will order less work
or social activities, more sleep, a
certain amount of exercise out of
doors every day.
