HEATING PROBLEM.

WI o' I" 4bs D's I" ~cICGf1StVf"
To the lady who inquired
about air-conditioned hot-air
heat. A good aforementioned
heat is more duSt-free than a
hot-water heat. I have had
less trouble by far with a dust
allergy since moving into our
house with aforementioned
heat than in the apartment
with hot-water heat.
First, have the gas COM
pany check to see that you
have a large enough furnace.
Then be sure your filters are
kept clean and replaced often.

this is a job for a professional.
Oil paintings tend to become

strain in the cleaning process.
You can refinish the frames
yourself by using a gilt pre-
pared with banana oil and
bronzing powder (obtainable in
an art supply store). Mix a
little of the bronzing powder
into a portion of the banana
oil, adding more oil until the
mixture is about the consist
ency Of cream. The banana
oil dries very rapidly and ad-
ditional oil must be added from
time to time to maintain the
proper consistency. After gild-
ing the frame, you may antique
it by rubbing it with burnt
umber (an artists oil COLOR.

Refusal 10 Submit
Handwriting Upheld

The right of a serviceman,
suspected Of forgery, to refuse
to submit a sample of his hand
writing on grounds of self-in-
elimination was upheld yester-
day by the United States Court
of Military Appeals.
Following a rule made in an
earlier case, the military SUI
preme court reversed a forgery
conviction against Engineman
&c Levern V. Eggers, 80, a
sailor.
The tribunal held other courts
had decided man could not be
required to produce his diary for
use as evidence against him.
Would it then make any
thing but nonsense to say that
the same man could be COM
PEELED to seat himself in the
presence of the same authorities
and to execute several pages in
long hand? Certainly not" the
military appeals court observed.
The samples of Eggers' hand
writing had been taken before
trial and were used as evidence
over his objection.
The court pointed out that
other samples of Eggers' pen
manship probably are available
for court use. 1t sent the sea-
mans case back to the Review
Board for further consideration
