board of publlo works. Tho same

'skilled Workmen to carry out their

A HOMEBODY IN A PALACE
Duce's Wife Shuts Out World
To Rtar Family in Simplicity
i
Ity Aiulrue Bcrtllng
no.MK (P) Hlgnora Mussolini,
wife of II Duce, Is perhaps the
moBt -secluded woman In Italy, and
certainly among the least konwn
of tho wives of tho world's great
men. '
Whllo the fame and name of her
powerful husband curry roitnd the
world, her own renown Is confined
within the four walls of her homo.
(to ane in Italy speaks of
rtnehelo Mussolini. Very fow know
anything about hor. The wlfo of
a prlmo mlnlstor In any other
country Is a person of national
note, perhaps a "first lady of the
lund. Hut not In Itulyl
II Duce has ordered Inflexibly
thnt his wife and children ure not
to mlnglo or bo mingled In his po
Iltlcal life.
"My wife and family aro my
dearest posscsHionH," ho said, "but
so greatly do I treasure them that
I keep them apart from my day as
something refreshing to go to
whon I havo a momont In which
to roHt."
It Is only In the last yenr or so
thnt Klgnora Mussolini hag lived
with her husband In Komo. Here
tofore alio was tucked away in
their little homo town of Carpena,
In tho north. ' '
Homo Duties Aro Heavy
Yet day after day. In her own
Hlmplo way, Donna Hacholo fulfills
her task, which enn't help but bo
difficult, as wlfo of Italy's prime
minister.
Bhe Is mistress of tholr elaborate
homo, tho Villa Torlonln, on the
Via Nomontnna, In a suburb to the
northenst of tho city.
This Is n big homo, and a con
siderable responsibility. Slgnora
Mussolini looks after It carefully.
chocking minutely the purchases
and nccounts, nevor forgottlng the
day whon a fow cents meunt a
wholo day's pay.
Hho Is tho mother of five chil
dren. Ono, Kdda, Is married, but
four live nf home. Two of them,
Itnmano nnd Anna Maria, aro too
young to go to school.
No rJoclnl Duties
There aro no social duties con- 10:46,
nectcd with Donna Rachcle'g life.
Her husband does not take her to
state dinners or receptions. She
does not entertain the political or
diplomatic world.
Khe goes to see very few friends,
and' receives- few friends at the
villa. She Is protocted from lm
partunate visitors by tho villa
guards. ,
The last time she was seen at a
public function was at the wedding
of their daughter Hdda to Count
Caloazzo Cluno, more than a year
ago.
What docs she do to fill up her
life 7 Sho does what any wlfo of a
hardworking huHhand and any
mother , of Iqur lusty children
would do. -
A Busy Day .
At 7 In the morning sho gets up
and supervises the. breakfast. Bhe
sees Vlttorlo and Hruno off to
school at 7:46, and her husband off
for his offlco nt 9. She tukes care
that Romano and Anna Maria
have something to do to occupy
their tlmo at home. ' ,
She then makes out tho lint of
purchases for tho day, and tho
menu for lunchoon. lcr husband
and sons are homo at .1:30 for
luncheon, und leave again arbund
3.00.
Shopping Hor Pleasure
In the ufternoon she frequently
goes automobile riding nnd shop
ping. Itnchele Mussolini's chief
enjoyment Is "fare lo spese,'' or
doing her own buying.
Occasionally, but not often, sho
stops at this or that friend's house.
She gets home In time to welcome
Vlttorlo and Bruno returning from
school, and to put Romano and
Anna Maria to bed.
Then comes dinner, at 9 o'clock.
There are seldom any guests. After
dinner she retires with hor hus
bnnd and sons to the largo salon
whoro they listen to tho radio, nnd
at lenst half tho tlmo thore arQ
motion pictures. '
Sometimes her husband plays
tho violin to tho accompaniment, of
the player piano. , Sho nnd her
family are Invariably in, bed nt

A vory prnctlcal method of'
growing tho bulbs for cutting Is
a follow crop to the vegetables

and spinach nnd oarly lettuce.
Tho bulbs may be planted In rows

In tho garden they should bo

six of n kind for effect. Tho larg

Now the gentle summer winds
make It easy, to dispense with
hats, you have to . fuss ; a bit to
achieve a head of hair that you'll
bo; proud to show the world. If
your , hair Is over-dry . and your
scafp tight, spend a few minutes
oach night massaging the scalp
with your finger tips to Induce
circulation. A little oil applied
before the shampoo Is said by
some authorities to be beneficial
to hair that Is too oily as well a
hnlr that is too dry.
Keeping a normally nice head
of Hnlr looking Its best Is largely
a matter of simple cleanliness.
Brush it with a clean brush at
least once a day, and rub the
scalp with a towel to remove any
dust thnt may cling to it. Wash
It whenever It is dirty. Two weeks
between Is suitable for most peo
ple but there are no set rules. If
you live In a dirty city, work nt
a dirty trade, travel a great deal,
or perspire freely, the llnterval
should be shorter. Oily hair catch
es the dirt faster than dry hair
nnd thick hair Is harder to brush
clean than thin hair.
The Ideal shampoo takes lots of
water and lots of soap. FlrBt wet
your hnlr all over with warm
wnter, then apply the suds and
rub them thoroughly into the
hnlr and onto the scalp. Don't be
afraid to use strength and don't
full to rub your scalp hard to
loosen nny bits of dust or dry
skin that may cling" to it. Rinse
out all the soap with wurin water
and then go through the .entire
process aguln. The final rinse
should be warm to make the hair
fluffy.
Hub your scalp and hnlr as dry
as possible with a warm lintless
towel, and to complete the drying
toss your hair 'If possible, In the
sunlight and open air. Never
comb the hair while It Is wet.
When nearly dry, use a brush. A
clean brush Is necessary for live
and glossy hair. Be sure to wash
your . brush in warm soapsuds
once n week and dry it in the
