I find that this free health feature of innumerable wares comes high. But it app that most people want their health knowledge to come that way. This explains the pandemic of Billings complaint—and for the bene- fit of the Towa correspondent who_de mands to know, I'll explain that Mr. llings said the trouble with so many vlain people is they know so many things which ain't As a matter JUST HUMANS “How Long Are “About a Week!” “Pll Come Back Then!” will you no 2 am a will you not, that I am a | o & |all wrong, and 1is no met. That is where the skilt of the hairdresser comes in. But there are some women who find some sort of bandeau or other hair ornament so much more becon. | ing than their own severely sleek hair {that it is. no wonder they snap their |fingers at the dictates of a few fashion | extremists and take advantage of | various new hair trimmings. One of the shops shows a wide bandeau—al- | most a ttara—made of cut steel that! goes across the front of the head, and to wear with it are interesting pendant earrings, also of cut steel. Then there are caps of metallic lace that fit close ly over the smoothly brushed short hair. The sketch shows a new way of| wearing short hair, parted quite low on the left side and brushed across the head, leaving a high expanse of forehead, but covering the ears, from | which hang quaint pendant earrings to match the necklace.

It may be useful to the cook to know that French cooks add a teaspoon of sugar to each quart of water in which peas, marrows and othef green vege- tables are cooked. This brings out the flavor of the vegetable and is very agreeable, especially in very young peas, which the French cook serves, pods and all, with cream. | BRADY, M.

How many dollars a family may {save in a year by. dumping the anti- septics in ‘the sink is a minor ques- tion.

Military training had been almost as lacking among them as pay d: The short- enlistment _policy had brought fresh men into the Army every few months and had allowed others to return home with their guns. These deplorable conditions had come about partly hecause of the necessity of converting citizens into fighting sol- diers almost over night.

She can count and read Mother Goose almost. Please attend to this.” Betsy was 53, and blisstully uncon- scious of readers and tables and set exercises. She was in the kindergar- ten and belonged there. But her mother thought she was losing six months, and that if we put her into | the grades she would be graduated six months earlier and be on her way ahead of time. But, of course, she wouldn't. You see, it takes time for a child to grow up. That is something that the teacher, be she ever so plodding, and the mother, be she ever so eager and pushing, have nothing to say about. Time will have to be allowed his part in the play or the play will not go on. What is Time's part? “Time is fly- ing" says the eager mother. “It takes so long to educate a child. Twenty years.

The most prosaicly | used words today may conceal in their | syllables a fascinating story of by: gone days, while others of more color- | ful meaning today may hark back to| a most insignificant origin. | It is in the latter category that we must place the word “hussy,” which, | although taboo in polite speech, is fa- | millar to all of us as a scathing and contemptuous characterization of a worthless woman or girl. It is of the | day of the Puritans, of the ducking stool and whipping post. when public | opinion was not as broad and charita- | ble as it is today, that the term re- | minds us. For it is in literature of | that perfod that it is most frequently | found, the women of those days being free in denunciation of other women or the slightest offense, particularly n the case of those who were more at- | tractive to men than themselves! | “Hussy,” as it is known to us, is| merely a corruption of housewlfe, | which in early English took the form | of “huswife.”" Usage in the interven- | | to the connotation of the word today .

There are other things to think of in buying china besides it: durability, but certainly none which are more important for the most of us. We want appropriateness in our dishes, e, and we like to have some But except for a few show which every woman_ indulg durability needs to be regarded as the point of first importance. But whether or not anv piece of china will be doing service many years after its purchase depends on a variety of things. The care with which it is used will count more than anything else. But the inherent wearing quality of the dish itself is a many-sided virtue. If housewives would only recognize this, and not b satisfied as to the durability of a plece because of some one phase of its a pearance, there would be much I cause for regret in the cholce of china. The real life and hsefulness of a dish depend quite as much upon its being able to hold its color, finish and design as upon its ability to with stand actual breakage. In fact, it i probably true that we regret the pur- | | chase of a set of dishes a great deal more, if they become unsight some time, than if they actually and disappeared from our memory Will the design, the trimming, the decorating. last as long as the dish? is a_question of prime importance in coming to a decision on the purchase of any piece of chinaware. And that depends, in turn, on a number of things. ' Unless the surface and the body of the dish have been mixed and fired to about the same degree of den- sity, “crazing” or patchwork cracking is likely to result after some usage. This weakness shows up commonly in mixing bowls and cheap heavy dishes. It will tend to appear somewhat in those of a better grade unless the “quality runs cl through.” The coloring on chinaware will be impermanent, too, unless it 1s “under- glazed"'—tha unless this decoration is applied befo the fi surfacing is baked on be most fleeting of can be reasonably “fast” to wear and washing if it is cofn gold and has been under approved conditions. Ungainly pleces, however structed, will not be durable, becauss our habits of handling things are not such a to protect the odd shapes. And so if dishes have spouts and han- dles which stick out at unseemly angles, they are not only more fragile in the first place, hecause it is harder after to attach them solidly, but the knocks | they get are much more frequent. If all your dishes are chosen with such shapes that they can have been mold We like 2 winding road the best. By each new view were onward led — So half the charm of life is this: HARLAND H.

A proved brand of china will give vou assur ore, but one needs to know also that a dish which s ex- tremely thin cannot be very durable and one which is too thick will have the same weakness. Any contrast in density within the substance of a dish is likely to cause it to break.
