biting such foods as apples and raw
carrots.
2. Try to chew with an up and

3. Keep the tongue low and well

lower denture does not have the
concave roof OF the mouth to help
hold It by suction as does the upper

Captain KyeS says that artificial
dentures sometimes are unsuccesS-

In the patient. "One example OF this
is the effect Of body weight loss upon
the fit Of dentures. When a patient
loses IS pounds of weight he Is not

NEoST INDIVIDUALS, when they

patients using artificial dentures for
the first time will be helped by
closing the mouth and teeth and
swallowing frequently. Such action

Unfortunately many patients be-
come impatient and discouraged be-
cause the dentures do not seem to
fit perfectly the first time they are
used. II they consult their dentist,
he will, usually in a matter Of
minute or two. smooth down the
irritating part and give relief.

HEALTH NOTES

Persons whose excess weight 10
over 30 pounds should not begin
taking violent exercises.
Men and women have reached full
maturity at the age Of 80: there
should be no further growth In
height and weight.
Too much weight reduction is det-
rimental to the looks.
Now that men and women live
longer than frequently, 1t Is only
natural that they can expect more

there Is a special reason for not put

Another precauion to remember is
never to wash gloves which have
ever been dry-cleaned.
Frequent cleaning and washing
Of gloves Is essential. In most In
stances gloves are quite fragile, and
the hard rubbing required to re-
move soil from very dirty gloves
often ruins them.
Leathers except channels and doe
skin become very soft when they are
wet. For this reason. put the gloves
on the hands, as when you wear
them, and then wash in lukewarm
suds. The softness which gloves have

urging our students to be industri-

and develop a controlled. critical
attitude toward life and themselves.
We try to prevent their realizing
that creation Is essentially spontane-

Clean, Attractive Hose
Are Most Essential

Hose are fragile, even though you
may wear the service or heavier
weights and they should Fever be
subjected to too great soiling. II you
are busy in them all day, do change
to a fresh pair before going out.
Foot perSpiration as well as dyes
may discolor hose and render them
impossible to use except at a time
when someone doesn't see you. Soil
from both these sources, as well as
whatever seeps in through the shoes
can be dislodged usually when
they're washed Immediately upon
removing.
II you've become discouraged at
not receiving enough wear from
hose, check some small habits which
may add life to them.
Keep the feet well groomed so
there are no snags put in the hose
as you roll them on. Toe nails should
be filed and smooth. There should
be no horny, dried skin around the
heels or the ball Of the foot to sna z
the stockings, either.
Keep the nails smooth so they can.

Suede Accessories
Respond TO Steam

Suede and doeskin gloves, suede
handbags and shoes, all, can be
brought back to life very readily
with steaming and brushing.
II you're freshening this type Of
glove, place on glove s:retchers and
hold near the steam iron, set at
rayon. and move back and forth
while the steam permeates the
suede. While still damp. brush with
a soft rubber sponge or a soft brush.
This same method may be used on
purses, except Of course. they do
not need any stretchers. When
damp, brush as described above: An
emery board may be used on worn
spots to raise the nap.
Suede shoes can be treated Just
as are handbags, except it is a good
idea to try to remove any loose soil
before the steaming. Their appear
ance can be improved even more II
you touch up the edge Of the sole
and heel with sole dye.
