These winter days young
pupils need to have handker-
chiefs with them. Paper ones
are the best. If a youngster is
given q cotton handkerchief, he
is likely to use it for everything
except its real purpose. It seems
to him that it is just the thing
for rubbing the dust off his
shoes, or for wiping a chair.
Therefore, when the teacher
says, "Use your handkerchief on
your nose," he has probably
mislaid it.
A few paper hankerchiefs are
more practical for a school
child, who will quickly learn not
to rely on them for cleaning
shoes, etc. After the tissues are
used they can be thrown in the
waStebasket.
Mothers would do we'll to re-
member to see that their young
sters have a good supply of
paper handkerchiefs when they
leave their homes. Older chill
dren don't need to be told to use

the tissues. but with small fry
it is different. for they don't
give much thought to their ap-
pearances. They will sniff and
sniff until the teacher admon-
isheS them to attend to their
noses. Continued smiling is not
good for the nostrils and might
lead to trouble.
The easy disposal of the tis-
sues is in their favor. A cotton
handkerchief can easily be the
cause of infection. particularly
for these little ones who. of
course. don't understand the inn
portance Of cleanliness. If the
cotton handkerchief is still in
possession of a youngster. it is
likely, as I have said. to be soiled.
The use of paper handker-
chiefs not only applies when the
youngster is in school, for he
should have them available when
he is playing or when he is at
home. Mothers should remind
their children to use tissues at

By Josephine lowmon

The perfect time to begin any
self improvement is NOW. Un-
less you begin now you prob
ably never will. Even though
you may be unusually busy or
may have house guests, even
if little Jim has measles, you
CAN find time If you WILL.
Make the first gesture by
Joining "Why Grow Old?" Eight
Week Self-Improvement Mara
thon, which runs each January.
The idea of Marathon is to
see how much you can improve
your appearance in eight weeks
time. You can make. q new wom-
an of yourself. Do not drag
along any longer with those ex-
ira annoying pounds. Get ready
to enjoy buying your spring
clothes. You can lose as much
as 20 pounds in eight weeks.
Today I want to tell you how
to build a reducing diet which
will take the pounds of but will
give you the essentials for
health. Earlier this week I told

you to keep your daily calorie
consumption between 1900 and
400. I also told you how to de-
eide whether 1t is to be 1900
or 1,400.
Fats and carbohydrates should
be cut low in the diet. The most
usual fats are butter or oleo,
lard. fried foods. salad oils and
dressings and cream. Carbohy-
drates. as you probably know,
are the starches and sugars.
You need some sugar in your
diet but will get most Of 1t from
fresh fruits and vegetables. You
can have sugar in your coffee
unless you drink a lot of it. One
rounded teaspoonful gives you
about 80 calories.
The baked potato Goo
calories) is a very fine source
of starch and you often find it
on my reducing diet. However.
1t must be baked and you must
use very little butter on it. Po-
tatoes, when prepared in other
ways. are quite fattening.
The modern, scientific reduc-
ing diet is high in protein. You
should have lean meat or fish
or fowl "a small serving Of
which is about 100 calories at
least once a day, twice If you
wish. Drink at least two glasses
of milk a day. This is a highly
protective food but use either
buttermilk or skinned milk $50
calories to the glass;. Also be
sure to broil or bake or boil
your meat.
You can have an egg (85 cal
ories) a day on your diet but
bake or poach or boil. Do not fry.
You should have some whole
grain, bread or cereal each day
in moderate amounts. Be careful
about the butter and use skim
milk instead of cream If 1t Is
cereal.
Be sure to include plenty Of
fresh fruit, some citrus fruit
juice. and green and yellow veg
etables. These are extremely low
in calorie count and high in vita
min and mineral content. They
are also valuable because they
provide roughage when the
amount of food is cut. Take care
about the seasoning on your
vegetables.
Make your servings moderate
and do not take seconds.
Keep a little pad near you and
count your calories at each meal.
Be certain to build your diet
around the principles outlined
here.

pounds in eight weeks time. you
will want my Eight-Week Self
Improvement Marathon booklet.
Send 10 cents and a stamped,
Self-addreSsed envelope with
your request for it to Josephine
