MAGAZINE PAGE. Salvaging Work BY LYDIA LE BARON WALKER. HE work of salvaging has a pe- culiar faceination. It appeals to the largest business concerns, for they are able, from what would otherwise be waste, to make profit without decreasing the value of their chief business in the least. This samec practice holds good with homemakers, even though their houses are but tiny cottages or two- POLISHING MAY BE ALL THAT A BLACKENED AND TARNISHED PIECE OF OLD SILVER NEEDS TO RESTORE ITS BEAUTY. room apartments. The principle is the same and it works to advantage Every woman who has made over a frock which could not be worn as it was knows something of the delight and satisfaction in salvaging. Every person who has made rugs from dis- carded gowns and other te:tiles knows that things of genuine beauty and use- fulness can result from such salvaging. Those who make patchwork quilts from left-over bits of cloth and also from discarded clothes realize what a joy there is in such salvaging. A good dish made from leftovers is often just as de- licious as in the original way the food MENU FOR A DAY. BREAKFAST.

RESEARCH REVEALS ALLBRAN RICH IN HEALTH ELEMENTS Helps Correct Constipation with “Bulk” and Vitamin B; Also Has Iron ! Recent scientific research shows that Kellezg's ALL-BRAN contalns two things needed to overccme tem- porary and recurring constipation. 1t has “bulk” to exercise the intes- tines. and Vitamin B to tone the intestinal tract. These two important food-elements promote regular habits, and help do ay with the headaches, loss of appetite and energy. so often the result of constipation. The “bulk” in Ari-Bean is mild in action—much like that of lettuce. Inside the body it forms a soft mass, which gertly clears the intestines of wastes. Special cooking processes | make ALL-BRAN finer, softer, more palatable. Isn't this pleasant ‘“cereal way” far more healthful than using pills and drugs—so often habit-forming? Just eat two tablespoonfuls of Kellogg's daily—enough for most types of constipation. If your intes- tinal trouble is not relieved this way. see your doctor. | Besides, ALL-Bran _brings your| body twice as much blood-building | iron as an equal amount by weight of beef liver. Equally tasty as a cereal with milk or cream, or used in cooking. Recipes on the red-and-green package. Sold by all grocers. Made by Kellogg in Batt k. —Advertisel $ W Has Fascination | was cerved. There are endless ways of alvaging that are the privileges of the hcmemaker to prectice and to find good. Much of the pleasure found in col- lecting antiques is in just this very | thing—salveging, So many of the beau- tiful pieces of furniture, of old glass, china, etc., now treasured, have ccme from lofts in old barns of from attics, | where those who had no use for them stowed them a . Their usefulness was redeemed by washing, refinishing and having such cabinet work done as the articles warranted. The collector of antiques who relies | entirely on dealers to discove:, restore | and supply him with beautiful old pieces | gets much of his pleastre second hand. | He loses the joy of discovery and of | | talvage.

It recalls my own earliest in entomology. which began, I'm afraid, in the cruel sport of “beetle-fighting.” Junebugs as we called them, have a punctual habit of appearing in their proper month, especially at twilight. | while children haunt the sidewalks in | their street games and sports. Actuslly, | these are what scientists call stag- beetles, whose males have very long pincers, the function of which seems to be much the same as that of the antlers on the bucks of deer. For the most part these creatures avold each other, being each, I suppose, intent on his own courtships. But if you push them at cach other they wage a savage war. driven on by all the ferocity of the sex instinct as it exists in insects. Being among our largest-bodied insects (I 2m not counting the spread of the wingsd sorts), the stag-beetles are really impressive warriors, whose ponderous jousts, conducted in the heavy armor of a beetle's uniform, are thrilling to youngsters. | From the combats on the cement we turned our attention, as children still do, to the street lamps overhead. | sometimes see some energetic lad with a net on a slender pole, bringing down what cannot otherwise be reached ‘What will he find when he reaches cau- tiously into the net? ‘Two orders of insects predominate at this time of evening and in such places —the lace-wings or ncuroptera and the mayflies or ephemoptera. The lace- wings are far the more beautiful, some brown, some of an unearthly green. Both sorts. beside th>ir beauty. are im- mensely useful insects who devour at all stages of their life history greit | quantities of the very sorts of insects who do us and our crops and garden plants most harm. One of the neuroptera we all remem- | ber from legends of childhood is the “doodlebug.” When you see a circular pit in sandy ground, such as might be mace by inserting a match inio the soil and then twirling it around and cutward, vou may know that a neurcp- teran celled the ant-lion lives there | He is dear to the youngsters under the name of doodlebug. You must lean down till your lips touch the sand and shout, Doodlebug, coodlebug, come out of your hole! And out he comes! Yes, but he does, really. Perhaps he's en- raged. perhaps, like famed “Alexander Beetle,” he's glad fo see vou. | But other insects are not glad to meet doodlebug. The larva of the snt-lion flay makes his trap by backing into the ground. working around till he has constructed a slippery depression. Here he buries his head in sand. only the | tips of his jaws projecting. Small welking insects coast down the sand and fall into the awful trap. When the ant-lion has sucked his victim dry | h~ gives the empty carcass a toss from | his mobile head; it lands outside the pit, where it ought (but -never does) serve as a warning to unwary victims.

PERSONAL HE BY WILLIAM Substitutes for Cod Liver Oil. T is now the general practice every- where to give every baby a suit- l able cod liver oil ration from the 2ge of 1 month to the age of 1 year (amateur mothers may learn about this and other wrinkles from the Brady Baby Book, copy of which will be mafled if you write in for it and inclose 10 cents in coin and a stamped envelope bearing your ad- dress). The chief purpose of this is to prevent rickets, but cod liver cil con- tains vitamin A as well as vitamin D, and we have some good evidence that vitamin A helps the natural immunity process, particularly immunity against respiratory infections. Drs. A. G. de Sanctis and J. D Cralg have been studying the effects of cod liver oil ration and of other | concentrates or substitutes over a pe- ible to avoid looking drawn and aged after a hard day’s washing in the old-fashioned way.
