Whitman QUESTION: We havo Just moved Into our new huma. We were told to stain our kitchen cabi nets und then wax them . After living in the house u month we found that the cabinets were be coming stained and m arred by the w ater splashing on the wood. We would like to rem ove the wax and restain und then varnish them Is there anything we cun use to re move the wax from the cabinet! without harm ing the wood? ANSWER: Turpentine is a sol vent for wax; use it liberally to re move all truces of wax. The liquid is influmuble, so ventilute the room while working and shut off all pilot lights und refrigerator. If you wish to apply »nothCf'atuin of the sam e color, this can go right on over the old one, although the second staining will m ake the color still darker. If you wish to lighten the color, you can apply u wood bleach, on sale a t large paint stores. W id e D o g Choice When it comes to the breed of . dog a man chooses to accompany I him afield in search of upland game birds, the choice is far more varied than are the kind of birds sought. For decades, however, the nobility of the race of bird dogs has been the pointer and the setter, with the former having a slight edge, possibly, in preference. The stylish, far-ranging pointer or setter never fails to bring a j thrill of appreciation to the heart | of the hunter as the dog goes about the sole business for which he ex- SSH/ I’M USING M O M 'S} OIL ON MY BUGGY/ / 8191 12-20 The look of approval on Junior’s face is only an indica tion of how good these "chewy raisin wafers" actually are.

LYNN SAYS: These Cookie Making Tips Help You Ingredients for cookies will blend together more readily if they have beeh allowed to reach room tem perature. If the dough is too soft for drop cookies, let it chill until proper texture is reached. Fragile cookies keep best in tins, with waxed paper in between the layers. Do not store crisp cookies with moist ones in the same container, as the crisp ones will become soggy. Drop cookie doughs may be chilled if you do not wish to bake them all at once. Simply wrap in waxed paper or store in a well- covered bowl and refrigerate. Let soften before using by allowing to stand at room temperature. Cookies will bake to a more even brown if the pans or sheets on which they are baked are not shiny surfaced. When the recipe for cookies calls for a generous amount of fat, it is not necessary to grease the cookie sheet. These proud parents are 18- month old German pointers, owned by Chagrin Fails. Ohio, residents. The puppies were three weeks old when these ca nine champions posed for their pictures. The German pointer, long overlooked by the general scatter-gun addict, is fast coin ing into widespread popularity as an efficient complement to the wing-shot. ists—finding birds. Speed, grace, ability, superb assurance, class all stand out in obvious degree when a champion pointer or setter is at work. But the lesser, unsung breeds of bird dogs are beginning to come in for a share of the attention which rightfully should have been theirs years ago. Among these are the German shorthaired pointers, the Gordon setter, the Brittany spani els, and even cockers and spring ers when the game is to be flushed close to the gun. All these proven breeds, though lacking the flash and class of their swifter, more spectacular kinsmen, can and will do the job that is to be done, provided they are properly trained and carry within themselves the instinct to hunt which distinguishes the true bird dog whatever his breed.

A A A M a la ria S till Regarded G reatest ‘ M ass’ K ille r For the angler who contends that N ot Always 'Luck1 fishing is not always ‘‘95 per cent luck,” here is some ammunition: Surveys have shown that the suc cessful angler, whether he uses it consciously or subconsciously, is employing experience and skill, won through years of engaging in the sport of fishing, together with a wealth of “know-how’’ whenever he comes home with a nice catch of fish. These surveys reveal, for in stance, that the late-summer ang ler must know, if he is going to get any results, that best catches are made in this season from eddy waters around rocks, logs, root- wads, and along edges where plants and cover provide accessible food. Many fishermen, through in experience or lack of knowledge, pass up these places in search for large, deep pools in which to try their luck. How many anglers, for example, know that in many lakes the late summer months produce water stagnation in the lower half of the water level? The novice angler, fishing such spots, would be tempted to fish deep, thinking the fish would surely be found in the deeper, cooler waters. As a matter of fact, however, the contrary is often the rule, since the fish will be circulating in the upper 15 feet of water in such lakes because that is where they find sufficient oxygen. As a tip to live-bait fishermen wishing to determine proper depths for angling in late summer and before fall has chilled the surface waters: If your minnows die quickly at the depth you are fishing them, you are most likely fishing in the stagnant, or non-oxygenized, water level and should fish at a consider ably lesser depth. , A A A Although m alaria, m ankind’s greatest killer, no longer claim s | its toll among the w orld's great as ; it did before discovery of quinine, j the disease still rem ains the ‘‘most I im portant in the world from the standpoint of prevalence.” The yearly num ber of cases throughout the world is estim ated at 600 million with 3 million I deaths Even in the United States, be tween one and five million cases ' occur annually with an estim ated | 1200 deaths.

Some of the ancient taboos of fisherman seemingly have good basis in fact and should be ob served. While it has not been proved that voices on the stream bank cause fish to leave, a good fisherman will take your name off his list if you persist in talking too much near the stream. Vibrations seem to affect fish, too. as does running up and down the bank, breaking sticks underfoot, tossing articles into the water. 3 times as many women prefer FLEISCHMANNS YEAST Y
