Answer—Drying the hair with any kind of artificial heat has a tendency to make the hair dry and brittle. How- ever, when one is in a hurry drying the hair with one of the dryers made for that purpose will not be harmful and there are several on the market which I don’t believe you would find too heavy to handle comfortably. ‘The method of hair drying which 1 recommend as the best is by rubbing with towels, After the hair has been rinsed wring it out with the hands and Wrap & warm towel around the hair; rub the halr in the towel until most of the mosisture is absorbed. Remove towel and m: the scalp for a few min- utes. Apg another warm towel and when it has cooled remove towel and shake the hair well. Bend over at the MENU FOR A DAY. mPAST.

The artist did as requested, but when the picture was shown, the clouds were lying on the ground and the trees growing down from the sky. “Oh, Mr. Whistler,” cried the young dauber, “you've hung my painting up- side down.” “I know it,” replied the artist, “but if I'd hung it in the usual way, the committee wouldn't have accepted ‘u. That's why I had to turn it around.” One can often get & truer impression of a landscape, painting or even & photograph by looking at it in this re- versed order. There's a sort of hour-glass principle in life which is usually by un- noticed. The hour glass, or egg boiler, is a very .ccommod.unshconmpmn. After the sand has run &wn and out from above we can reverse the glass and have it run up and in. That's what we do when we want the egg to boil Just three minutes. It's a good thing to turn a subject over in the mind to see how it looks on | the other side. It's just as good a thing to turn it upside down to see how it looks from the reverse end. Almost every question has its reverse side and we can’t get the whole truth and see how it looks from the opposite end. That's why we say, “It's a poor rule that won't work both ways.” A good rule an wruth work in either direction, like the egg boiler or the ferry boat.

BY J. P. GLASS. “RICHARD BRINSLEY SHERIDAN, THE PLAYWRIGHT, ONCE TOOK OUT HIS PURSE AS HE SAT BY THE FIRE AND FOUND IT WAS VERY HOT." When Esther Johnson, the famous “Stella” of Jonathan Swift, was ex- tremely ill, her physician said: “Madam, you are near the bottom of the hill, but we will endeavor to get you up again.” She replied: “Doctor, I fear I will be out of breath before I get up to the D Swift said of Stella that she had “the most and finest accomplishments of any person I ever knew of either sex. It was observed by all her acquaintances that she never failed in company to say the best thing that was said, who- d | ever was by, yet her companions were usually of the best understanding in the kingdom.” Coming from Swift, who was himself one of the great wits of his day, this was high tribute. Since “Stella” was also a beautiful woman, of the brunette type, one wonders why Jonathan did not make her his wife. as he easily could have done. She was thrifty, while she was still a girl having saved 200 pounds from small gifts received from relatives and friends. To top off her good qualities she was brave, Once she shot and killed a burglar. Fortunately, Swift himself preserved some of her witticisms, Here are a few of them: Richard Brinsley Sheridan, the play- wright, who was noted for his prodi- gality, once took out his purse as sat by the fire and found it was very hot. “The reason,” observed ‘Stella,’ “is that money burns your pocket.” She called to her servants to find out what smelled so badly in the kitchen. “We are making matches,” they re- plied. “I have heard matches were made in heaven,” she said, “but by the brim- stone, one would think they were made in hell.” A man had acted the fool in her com- pany. At last he began to grieve about D. C., THURSDAY, OCTOBER 10, 1929, WISECRACKERS the loss of a child recently dead. A bishop in the company comforted him by saying the child had gone to heaven. “That is what grieves him,” quoth Stella, ecause he will never see it there.” A clergyman of her acquaintance was notoriously untidy and dirty. But he affected to be extremely smart, espe- cialiy at repartee. Once a member of the company, observing his finger- nails, asked how they came to be o dirty. The clergyman was at a loss for a reg]y. but “Stella” said: “The doctor goltf is nails dirty by scratching him- self.” This jest was made in polite soclety, but it was the gol“.e society of the early part of the eighteenth century.

Everyday Psychology BY DR. JESSE W. SPROWLS. From all I can learn from my friends, the new money doesn't seem to a 1 how] success, How some peopl? like wmoldo(t ‘old bilis! © Abd how money first. gfilt‘l"n: “Give me the good old big A psychologist is likely to explain the dislike for the new money on the basis of habit. He will say that we have our habits all set for the old money and that we find it hard to get a new set of habits established. Especially so, since at the present time the old and the new are circulating in about equal gx;flporchnl. ‘The old bills keep the old bits alive; the new bill habits are constantly coming in conflict with them. Now what about the man who wants the “good old big bills.” 1 suspect that the new money doesn’t seem to him to be worth as much as the old. Its very size suggests a correspond- ing shrinkage in purchasing value. And this s tion breeds carelessness in expenditures, thus bearing out the con- viction that a new dollar bill is not equal to one hundred cents, or twenty nickels. Of course, this feeling can all be laid at the door of habit and the confusion that results when a habit is not allowed to function. A feeling of emptiness or relative ill ease is instituted the very moment you break in upon accustomed ways of doing things. The emotional reaction which along with habit-formation and hal disturbance runs a little deeper into our souls that does mere habit. FEATURES.’ Straight Talks to Women About Money BY MARY ELIZABETH ALLEN. Your Son and His Living. This may be the beginning of your son's last year at school. If it is, have a talk with him before he goes away to assume the honors and dignity of a senior. ‘To be specific, talk over with him his future livelihood. Ask him his plans and his ambitions. Only too frequently young men have |~ no plans about their future jobs, and they find themselves at commencement all at sea. A majority of them perhaps become bond salesmen or real estate brokers simply because they are fitted for no vocation and have no idea about vo- cations for which they might be suited. ‘This is mot to say that real estate brokers or bond salesmen are n- sable, or that their vocations are un- desirable. It is simply to point out that many young men drift into these felds, and insurance may be added because they are dignified vocations re- quiring only a command of English and an assortment of social contacts, It is not necessary to worry your boy | about the awful responsibility of earn- ing one's living, nor should any son's mother warn him about the pitfalls. He should merely be cautioned to consider in ample time the field into which he fits best,” and the best wa; to find himself a position in that fleld.

You recall it now when you break the crisp, waxed wrapper from a loaf of Rice’s Bread, This aroma means more than Jjust an appetite-tempting fra- grance. It is a blending of many delicate odors which mean that the things going into the making of Rice’s are of the finest, and handled in the most skillful way; that the sugar in the rich, fresh milk has slowly browned during the long, careful baking of the famous split loaf, to give off this delightful smell. Also that the mixing and rising and baking been so carefully watched that the bread has a meadow- sweet odor and taste which only comes when the yeast actionis ex- actly right. The double-strength yeast always used in Rice’s acts on the protein-high flour to lib- erate every particle of rich, have wheaty taste and fragrance. So when you open the wrapper that keeps immaculate the crusf Split Top Loaf of Rice’s Brea you know that the tempting fra- grance means not only a delicious bread to eat but one that has ex- tra nourishment for your family in every fine-textured white slice, A Man Would Walk a Mile for This . . « 'Orange Marma- lade Pudding Beat three egg yolks thore oughly and stir in two table. spoonfuls of Rice’s Bread crumbs with_one teaspoonful of baking powder mixed together.
