Dying in poverty is no harder

Get more fresh air, 8 hra. aleep and If you

In case you're interested in that
picture Samuel Goldwyn has been
making, bringing Jascha Heifetz to
the screen, the title has been

Columbus” in the movie version of
that famous Ita lia n ’s life. That’s
what Edward Small did.
On second thought, maybe you'd
better not bother. F or it would be
a shame to do anything that would
take your mind off the grand picture
that Aherne, Paul Muni and Bette
Davis made together. "Ju arez" de

For a long time it seem 'd likely
that Rudy Vallee would be rem em

One of the newest and most in

two writers of mystery stories who
sign their output " E lle ry Queen."
I t ’s known as "The Adventures of
E lle ry Queen.” Each week a mys

Queen and four guest detectives lis
tening. As soon as Queen knows
who the m urderer is he stops the
play, and each guest is asked to
give his solution of the mystery.
Then the dram atization is re

given. It's lots of fun to follow from
your own arm chair.

Refrigerator Meals
I t ’s a smart stunt to get meal
preparation out of the way in the
cool of the morning. Knowing that
dinner’s ready and
practically w ait
ing to be served
helps you to look
and
feel
cool,
calm and collect
ed, and it leaves
you free for "vacationing" during
the hot hours of the day.
Here's a menu that can be pre
pared in the morning, almost down
to the last sprig of parsley, so that
it w ill be ready to serve at the ap
pointed dinner hour with only a little
additional work.
Pineapple Upside Down Loaf

Buttered Fresh Peas.

before dinner, cook in this same
water. For variety, sprinkle finely
chopped garden m int over peas be
fore serving.
Tomatoes Stuffed With Macaroni.
Remove the centers from the de
sired number of tomatoes and fill
with cooked and
seasoned macaro
ni, topping with
slices of cheese,
or better yet, if
the refrigerator
divulges
some
freshly kept, left
o ver m a c a ro n i

stead, with a buttered crumb top
ping. Chill until dinner tim e, then
bake in a hot oven (400 degrees)
for about 20 minutes.

1 package mint-flavored gelatin
1 cup boiling water

cream, sliced strawberries and
marshmallows cut in quarters.
Place in sherbets and chill for sev
eral hours or overnight.

m it a new pair, the answers to these
and many other questions w ill be
found in Eleanor Howe's useful little
book "Household Hints.” Send 10

P u re Cellulose C urtains
Look L ik e R are C hintzes
Pure cellulose curtains that look
like printed linens and rare chintzes
are making home-decorating history
for 1939. So low is their cost that
an entire house can be redraped
for less than $10, and when the cur
tains are soiled they can be thrown
away and replaced for a cost equal
to or less than the cost of launder
ing.
Looking like vellum and feeling
like fine percale, these materials are
soft, pliable, with permanent drapa-
bility and "hand." They are avail
able in a wide number of patterns
and designs in rich, sunfast colors.
Coming completely finished and
ready to hang, with matching tie-
backs, the drapes are sold in three
lengths.
Little Niceties Make
Cheerful Guest Room
Summer guests w ill appreciate a
cheerful guest room—one that has
its own style furniture and not just
miscellaneous discarded pieces. Es
sential as the bed itself are a chest
of drawers for odds and ends, a
smart vanity for the feminine visitor
and a bedside lamp and table.
A chaise longue and some good
books and magazines w ill help take
care of those in between moments.
Most important of all, for comfort’s
sake, are a good mattress and a
good spring.
Logs for the Apartment
There are now fireplace logs suit
ed to the apartment dweller. They
are compressed under great pres
sure out of sawdust and shavings so
that each log is bone dry, clean,
uniform in size (4 by 12Vk inches),
and has no splinters. There is al
most no storage problem, as each
log burns for four hours, and a
month’s supply can easily fit into
the closet along with the umbrella
and galoshes. These logs give off a
colored flame—blue, orange, purple
or green—very much like fires made
from driftwood.
Dining Bay Excludes Flies
I f you want to eat outdoors in
warm weather, but the flies make
the meal a nuisance, how about add
ing a bay to your living or dining
room? You can sit with windows on
practically three sides of you, but
by screening them, banish the an
noying and unsanitary little insects.
Sealing Jellies
Paraffin used for sealing jellies
should be “ smoking” hot, since it
sterilizes as well as seals. T ilt the
glass in order that the melted par
affin m ay form a seal around the
side of the glass as well as a cov
ering for the top.
“ TA E A R MRS. SPEARS: I have
a pair of lamps for m y
dressing table, and I would like to
use some of m y curtain m aterial
to cover plain shades. Can you
tell me how this is done? C. H .”
Here is a method that is shown
for a living room lam p in Book 1.
It m ay be used for a shade of
any size. You w ill need the top
and bottom rings from an old
lamp shade. A cardboard founda
tion is cut to fit these, and the
chintz or other fabric is pasted to
the edge of this.
The AB line in the pattern dia
gram is as long as the diam eter
of the bottom ring. The dotted
vertical line is approximately as
long as the depth of the shade.
The CD line is as long as the
diam eter of the top ring. D raw
the diagonal lines to touch the
ends of the AB and CD lines.
Place a tack where they meet at
E . Place a pencil through a loop
in a string, as shown, and draw
the bottom line of the shade m ak
ing it as long as the measurement
around the bottom ring plus a
h a ll inch. Shorten the string and
draw the top to fit the top ring
allowing for a h all inch lap.

There’s a Good Reason
You’re Constipate d !
When there's something wrong
with you, the first rule Is: get at
the cause. If you are constipated,
don't endure it first and cure it
afterward. Find out what’s giving
you the trouble.
Chances are it's simple It you
eat the super-refined foods most
people do: m eat, w hite bread,
potatoes. It’s likely you don’t get
enough “bulk." And “bulk” doesn't
mean a lot of food. It’s a kind of
food that isn't consumed in the
body, but leaves a soft “bulky”
mass in the intestines and helps
a bowel movement.
If this is your trouble, you
should eat a natural "bulk" pro
ducing food-such a one as the
crunchy, toasted , ready-to-eat
cereal-Kellogg's All-Bran. All-
Bran Is the ounce of prevention
that's worth a pound of emer
gency relief. Eat it every day,
drink plenty of water, and “Join
the Regulars.” All-Bran is made
by Kellogg’s in Battle Creek.
