California is in again with
something to top. A resident of
the Golden State says he has
been using the same typewriter
for fifty-three yars! He bought
it in 1902 and it still works fine.
It was made in the U.S.A.
Asking
Queries fsom clients. Q. Is
Howard Hughes, the Texas and
Hollywood multimillionaire, a
bachelor? A. A bachelor is a man
who has never been married. Mr.
Hughes has been married once.
However, he is unmarried at
this time. Q. "Who starred in the
New York production of George
Bernard Shaw's play, -"The
Mind-the-Paint-Girl?" Has that
play been filmed? A. Play you
refer to was not written by Shaw
but by Sir Arthur Wing Pinero.
Billie Burke was starred in the
original New York production.
Anita Stewart was starred in a
silent film version of "The Mind
the Paint-Girl."
Asides
Note It said that five cups of
coffee a day is a safe limit. That
used to be my limit but I have
increased my quota a little. I
have four cups of coffee for
breakfast, three at dinner. I use
cream. That cuts down the effect
of the caffeine. . . . "Among the
things a young man should
know," said my Uncle Al to
me one rainy day in Brooklyn,
"is that horses with large feet
usually run well in the mud."
Sidelights
That brilliant composer of
popular songs, Sam Coslow, is
still receiving about $5,000 a
year in royalties from his song
"Cocktails for Two." . . . How
are you on solving puzzles and
riddles? Do you know where
the oldest known riddle can be
found? It is in the Bible, Book
of Judges, Chapter XIV, Verses
14 to 18.
Sayi She
"Your reference to falsies for
bathing suits as being something
new is most amusing," writes a
feminine subscriber. "Why, you
poor innocent thing, women
have been wearing falsies in
bathing suits for over twenty
years!"
Eggs, Etc.
People who order fried eggs
turned over don't deserve to
have eggs. Neither do those only
two minutes. Fried eggs should
be sunny side up. When boiled.
the period of boiling should be
four minutes. Incidentally, a
man who insists his eggs bej
unusually soft generally makes
a difficult husband. Is fussy
about other things and drives
his loving wife ragged with his
demands. Have your daughter
keep this in mind. Before she
accepts a man who proposes mar
riage, tell her to be certain to
ask him, "how do you like your
eggs boiled?"
Briefly
Women born under Capricorn
(December 22-January 19) are
the most polite females of the
Zodiac. They even thank men
for giving them their seats in
the subway. Or, so say the star
gazers. . . . Eyesight expert says
brunettes see better than
blondes. Could that be the rea
son the brunettes have better
looking husbands than blondes?
Or why so many blondes feature
so many curious color combina
tions in their attire?
Please Note
When husband and wife are
red haired their children are
usually red haired. When one
of a couple is red haired, they
generally have at least, one red
haired child. However, did you
ever hear of a husband and wife
both having jet black hair whose
children are all red haired? It
has happened. A British couple,
John and Pauline Earle, both
dark haired, have five red hair
ed children. A set of twins and
a set of triplets. Three boys,
two girls.
