One good plan is to combine creamed oysters, | scallops and clams. The - shellfish | are prepared as usual with a delicately seasoned’ white sauce and combined in proportions according to taste.

The Night Lamp » By GHIRLIY RODMAN WILLIAMS THERE is the question in the minds of so many parents whether it is wise to let the child go to sleep with a light in his room, If the child is afraid, by all means let him have one, for lying cowering in the dark is a terrific nerve strain. Put the baby to bed in the dark, let him develop with the idea that ons naturally goes to sleep in the dark, and you run a good chance that he'll never question it. The dark is more restful than a lighted room, but if he suddenly becomes afraid and cries for a light, get a shaded night lamp and let him have it without comment. Fear is instinctive in most cases and arguing or forcing will never eliminate it.. Only grow th of confidence and physical strength helps. Protect him daytimes from undue rerve stimulus—such as the movies, exciting games, and stories and con- Versations of robbers and fearsome things. When he no longer fears going to bed, suggest that since he's 80 big he probably doesn’t want a light, but prefers going to bed like a grown-up, and so you may get him to settle the light question himself.

If you will keep a small and not too stiff bristled nail brush in your bathroom, it will help solve the prob- lem of keeping your nails nice looking without spending much time over them. Nails look badly because min- ute particles of dirt collect around the cuticle and under the edges, and one of the quickest ways to get these particles off is by hot water, soap and a brush. For the brush gets under the edges and cleans more thoroughly than rubbing with the hands or with a cloth. Don't use too stiff a brush, though, or you may bruise the delicate skin around the nalls, or the still more delicate part beneath the nails, where they grow from the fingers and where most of the dirt collects. And don't | scrub too hard; a lot of damage is | done in this world by the people who | are over conscientious. Use a mod- erately stiff brush, and if yours hap- pens to be too stiff, let the hot water | soften it before you try it. The nails need bleaching every few days, because stains get on the sKin | or underneath the nails and even the brush won't take them off. I'd advise keeping a little bottle of lemon juice in the bathroom cupboard and using this with an orange wood stick wrap- ped in cotton, just as you use any nail bleach. Or, dig your nails into a sec. tion of juicy lemon and let the juice work itself all over the finger ends. Or. keep some of the white paste bleach which you can buy anywhere, run this under the nails, and serub it | out in a few moments with the nail | brush. There are several paste | bleaches; they are easy to use and if washed out soon afterwards, they won't dry or harm the fingers.
