You. cannot be intolerant and also

ia the best policy
A friend of Benjamin Franklin
told him one time that he was very
intolerant and never listened pa
tiently to other people's views
Franklin was quite surprised and In
clined to disbelieve his friend, but
he checked on himself and found
thst the friend was correct. After
that Franklin tried to let other peo
?»le express their views while he
istened, and when he was forced to
disagree, he did so quietly and with
no show of heat.
Don't be the type of person who
disputes everything another says.
And try hard not to be prejudiced
against anv person, race or creed
You will grow in charm and Interest
If you take this way, and will be
much more sought after than you
would be if you were dictatorial and

Ice Use Too
Drastic For
Tender Face
By GLADYS GLAD
•America’s Most Famous Beauty*
-DEAR MISS GLAD: Some time
ago you mentioned that you do not
approve of the use of ice on the
face. I always thought that ice was
excellent for astringent purposes.
Would you tell me Just why you do
not approve of its use?
• MARILYN *
Ice Is indeed astringent in its ac
tion upon the skin. But in my opin
ion the use of ke is far too drastic
a measure for the tender facial skin.
In the first place, the frequent use
of Ice is somewhat drying to the
skin, and may cause the appearance
of tiny, fine lines In the second
place, the shock of the sudden, ex
treme cold miv cause unsightly lit
tle broken capillaries. And in the
third place, the constant intense cold
mav even Induce a condition of fa
cial neuralgia. If you've been us
ing Ice on your face. Td suggest that
you aubstiute a mild astringent. A
goed astringent will close the pores
and tone up the skin as effectively
as the ice, but will not have any of
its detrimental effects.
• Dear Miss Glad I certainly owe
' you a large vote of thanks for the ,
assistance you've rendered me
through your New Figure’ booklet.:
I've been following the reducing
course In that booklet of yours, you j
see, and have lost about 31 pounds
all told. Even my severest critics
are forced to admit that my present
figure lines are close to perfection
However. I’ve another problem I
recently got a permanent wave, but
it is very kinky. Is there anything
I can do to eliminate this kinki
ness?
LINDA "
There are a number of effective
things that you can do to make your
permanent wave softer and less
kinky. Dally vigorous brushing of
your hair. In the first place, will
make the hair more tractable. It
will distribute the natural oil even
ly over each hair, and will help to
soften the wave. Then, hot oil sham
Ijoos and softening vinegar rinses
will also help to make the waves
flatter and less kinky And if. in
addition, you set your hair In wide,
loose wave? after each time that you
shampoo it. It will eventually become
trained to retain a smooth, even
wave
• • •
“Dear Miss Glad I know that you
always advise that the hair be giv
en vigorous brushing treatments
each day. My hair, however Is very
oily, and I was told that brushing
treatments will only increase the oll
'ness. is this true? Or would yon
advise me to continue giving my
hair brushing treatments each day?
ANNA."
T eertainly would advise you to
give your hair vigorous brushing
treatments each day. Oiliness re
sults when the glands In the sealn
relax and overflow. The hair be
come# dark and lifelees because the
oil, which should flow normally
through the hair comes out at the
scalp and Is wasted. The brushlngs
will distribute the oO or the scalp
down the length of the hair, and
may even help to remove some of the
excess oil. In addition, the ctrcula.
non in the scalp will be stimulated,
the hair roots nourished and the
oil glands assisted In regaining thelx
normal functioning.
PARTI’ TARTS
Six tart shells, one and one-half
tablespoons gelatin, one-fourth cup

Naughty Child
Wants Notice
From Parents
_
By OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON
A mother recently asked me about
her boy whose conduct has been
pretty bad. “I whip him." she said.
• and so does his father. We used to
uae our hands and then we got a
switch. His father used a strap the
last time. If this keeps on well
have to take a fence-paling to him.
He onlv gets worse. He thinks up
new things to annoy us every day *'
Not knowing her boy or the na
ture of their home life. It was not
easy to advise — so many things en
ter into the making of a bad boy.
After further talk about behav
ior and motives, I began to see a
light.
“Did It ever strike you.” suggested
the oracle “that Johnny thinks you
and his father are more Interested
In his conduct than you are In him?”
“They are the same, aren't they?"
she asked
Children Want Attention
“No. not In one sense they aren't.
There seems to be a sort of fence
between you two parents and your
boy. You are on one side, he on the
other. Maybe he feels It—feels like
a squirrel In a cage or a bug under
a microscope
“Children are strange They de
mand attention, and It Is well known
that when they feel others are not
greatly Interested In their affairs
they make a bid for the lacking at
tention through other mean*. They
do awful things sometimes to attract
attention even though It be a scold
ing or punishment. They count It
a day lost when they are not In the
center of the limelight even though
the audience throws things."
“But we do love him. He knows
we do everything for him He Isn't j
grateful, but he knows It." hls mo- i
ther protested. The oracle contin
ued.
“We will have to discount the grat
itude. I'm afraid As a rule children
are not grateful In the sense we
know It. I know you love Johnny,
but when I speak of interest in him
self I don't mean that. I mean in
terest In hls interests.
“You might try an experiment
Stop all criticism for a while and
try to overlook temporarily moat of
his disobedience and misbehavior. In
the meantime substitute a new fea
ture In the household. What does
he like to do best?”
“Oh. he plays bail, and he likes
book* and he Is crazy about ropes
and lassos He saves pictures some
times.”
Help Him At Play
•There you are. If hls father
would play ball with him sometimes,
that would be a link in the new bond.
Or show him how to tie new knots In
the rope If you could read to him
a bit. or get him started on a real
scrap-album of some sort and help
him with It. Show you are as anxi
ous as he 1* in having It done right
“It might begin a new family re
lationship, He might lose that spirit
of reprisal and trying to upset you
when he finds you are both such real
people. And that he counts as well
as hls conduct.
“I don't predict any miracle over
night, but something for the better
might happen Confidence between
child and parent Is good bed-rock to
build on ”
She seemed very anxious to go
home and try it. I hope It works.
HASHING WINDOWS
If In a hurry to wash windows, do
no with a chamois wrung out of
warm water to which small amount
of household ammonia has been
added Rub the window well. Wring
out the chamois quite dry and
wipe off the glass. There will be
no need of further drying and
there will be no lint or streaks left
behind.

PREPARATION OF ENTIRE MEAL IN OVEN APPEARS TO '
BE A HOT IDEA
When cooked tn covered dishes, whether they're transparent glass or opaque porcelain, oven nasals
retain the acme of flavor.
bt mart e. dag re
NEA Service Writer
It’s our grandmothers several
generations back whom we must
thank for the idea of cooking whole
meals In the oven The old-time
brick oven was the forerunner of the
conveniences of oven cookery as we
know them today.
It’s a Joy to send a dish straight
from the stove to the table without
a troublesome transfer from baking
to serving dish, and It's a boon to
the epicure, too For the food ar
rives hot and flavorsome.
Among materials used for oven
utensils, heat resistant glass has one
factor not found In the other ma
terials— Its transparency. It helps a
lot to be able to see just how the pie
Is browning on the bottom, to watch
the custard thicken to the right
point of creaminess and the souffle
rise In Its glory .
Oven Cooking Aids Food
There’s charm though, to the pot
tery baking dishes from France
with their chubby handies and their
crusty brown hue England, too.
sends attractive heg^roof china
and pottery in many patterns,
shapes and sizes Then, of course,
our own made-In-America products
are attractive, too.
As to oven meals. I m very much
for them. Oven cooking makes cer
tain 1)1)06 of foods more appetizing
and nourishing It develops flavors
through slow cooking and saves all
the Important mineral elements. It
often makes food more digestible be
cause It more completely softens
cellulose and tough fibers. And
what is very important to me. It
saves fue!, time, labor, and the at
tention of the one who cooks.
Drive Out the Poisons
When reguiar bowel movements
stop, soaring waste matter clogs the
bowel, and soon begins to poison the
entire system. When you feel bed
on this account, take Thedford's
Black-Draught to get rid of consti
pation. Refreshing relief follows.
"I take Thedford's Black-Draught
for dizziness headaches, bad taste
in the mouth, a dull, tired feeling
and for any bad feeling that comes
from a clogged system." wTttes Mr
D. M Minton, of Chiefland, Fla.
“Soon I am feeling good as new. I
only take a dose once in a while.”
THEDFORDR BLACK-DRAUGHT
An oven dinner at mock duck,

If you use large potatoes for bak

Potatoes are better baked at thU
temperature than at a higher one.
For baked onions, remove the out.
