SECURING PAD.
From Mrs. NJ. F. NJ. Washington. }
+. At a certain popular home
wares store located on the south
side of the 1900 block of G street
NV. I recently purchased a
metal securing pad which is. in
my opinion. the finest thing of it's
kind obtainable, for the follow
ing reasons:
i. II Is composed OF matted, soft
curls of a non-tarnishable. STAIN
less metal (nickel. I think, which
is as easy on the hands as a
sponge.
2. 1t can be stretched out under
the hot-water faucet for cleaning
and returns at once to its original
shape.
3, 1t not only scours. but it
polishes pots and pans beautifully.
without the aid of a securing
powder. think 1t far superior to
the copper pads and to steel wool
because it scours better and is not,
like they are, scratchy. 1t is in
expensive and appears to be very
durable.

desserts, if you dislike the heavy

while still hot and after pouring
into the serving dishes. The
sugar cannot be discerned. To

and gracefully, If you stand with
your feet slightly astride and toes
pointing outward a bit. Then
squat deeply with your knees
spread wide apart.
In addition to toning your hips
and thighs, this position provides
a broader base for your balance,
| lessons the strain on your legs
and back. and prevents all your
weight from being thrown over
your arches. No fatigue and no
foot troubles!
AS you move from place to
place, always rise to a full, stand
ing position before getting down
again. You'll do your figure more
good than if you worked out on
the floor vigorously for full hour
and furthermore, you'll be able
to garden longer because there's a
rest in each stretch.
Hoeing and raking are excellent
all-purpoSe exercises when per-
formed rhythmically. Put one
foot a little ahead of the other
and bend your. knees slightly.
Lean forward from the hip Joint
with your abdomen pulled in and
your hips tucked way under. Then,
with each stroke of the hoe,
straighten up slightly from the
hip joint. AS you push the hoe
forward, lean forward again.
It's a see-saW kind of movement
in which every part of your body
participates. The exercise is
equally distributed among every
one of your large muscles.
Don't be alarmed if you notice
slight stiffness at first. After a
day or two that will disappear. It
is natures way of saying that you
are getting what you need. Just
keep at it and you will soon notice
how much better you look in your
mirror long before your first bios
