NEW YORK (UPI) A youns
New York couple has started the
battiest beauty fad of the year
plastic eyelashes.
From their small Jahoratory-
lactory in this city s warehouse
district near the Hudson River,
Sol and Marguerite Goodman,
both graduate chemists, are turn
ing out the phony flutterers at the
fate ot live ounces a day.
Doesn't sound like a lot of eye
lash, until the couple explains
there are about two thousand
pairs to the ounce. In other words
production is about 10,000 pairs
daily.
Fake eyelashes have been
around many years, Goodman
aid, but were "pretty much of
a do-it-yourself project until the
1920's. The United States has is
sued only half a dozen patents on
artificial lashes since 1911."
He said most of the fake lashes
worn by models and actresses
were of real hair, attached to an
adhesive base which joined the
lid. The Goodmans, who hold a
1958 patent on their product, said
theirs is the only one in which
both lash and base are of the
lame material and in one piece.
Basically the lashes, which are
sold through drug and department
stores, are made from strips if
a plastic film of the polyester
type. They are permanently
curled, just as some synthetic
fibers are permanently pleated.
and are tinted brown or black
with a cosmetics pigment.
The narrow strip to which the
lash joins serves as a built-in eye
shadow and comes in turquoise,
agate, natural, jade, amethyst,
and azure blue. All a girl does
is attach tho strip to the upper
lid with lanolin-based adhesive.
Each lash is six tenths of an
inch long, but only five ten
Ihousandths of an inch thick.
Kach lash has 125 strands or
"hairs," and with a pair on, the
total of 230 makes for quite an
effect.
If the wearer thinks they're too
long, all she has to do is get out
the scissors and trim." said Good
man. "The lashes come off and
on as easily as, well, as you take
out your false teeth."
How about safety of the syn
thetic? Goodman said the lashes
are less flammable than human
hair and there is no dancer from
lighting a cigarette.
Goodman, a native New Yorker,
was a consulting chemist and his
wife, who comes from Seattle,
worked with a textile firm before
they launched the lashes.

You can save your family food
budget dollars every week by plan
ning before you shop, advise ex
tension specialists at Oregon Stale
College.
Saving a few cents on an item
may seem insignificant, but in
lime it adds into dollars. Accord
ing to Zelma Reicle, OSC consum
er marketing specialist, on the av
erage one-fourth of the family in
come, after taxes, is spent for

could whittle the food budget with
some of these money saving prac
tices.
Learn to spot a real bargain.
Mark-ups vary on food within a
store. Some items are known as
footballs" because they are sold
at cost or less to lure customers
into the store. Most common "foot
balls" are canned peaches, apple
sauce, tomato juice, frozen orange
juice, shortening, smoked hams,
baby food, sugar evaporated milk
and tomato soup.
Buy foods in-season and plan
meals amind them. It pays if fam
ilies with freezers stock up on food
specials such as meat or frozen
foods. Price ditferences between
gg sizes also vary at certain
times during the year. Sometimes
small eggs are better buys than
large. Shoppers may obtain free

extension olfices.
Save on meat purchased by buy
ing less popular cuts. Snort nns,
shank end of ham, shoulder cuts.
beef chuck and variety meals are
often lower priced than more pop
ular steaks, chops and roasts, she
notes.
Buy fond for intended use. Im
perfect apples make tasty pies and
sauce, and are cheaper than top
quality, showy apples. Tomatoes for
iuicc or catsup, and fruit for jams
and jellies need not be top quality.
Read iibels, compare ingredients,
and price per pound with cost pur
serving. Compare prices among
fresh, frozen canned foods. At cer
tain limes some vegetables and
fruits are cheaper canned than fro
zen, and some frozen are cheaper
than fresh.
Consider the cost of convenience.
shoppers arc reminded. Many pre
pared toons cost more than the
cost of ingredients. Shoppers often
pay premium prices for conven

Ucli as cake and htscuits. are
cheaper to buy than to make the
baked goods from "scratch." Salad
dressings are usually cheaper made
at home.
Plan a flexible shopping list he
fore you shop. Maintain an "up-
to-date" shopping list handy in the
kitchen. Build the list around meat,
fish, poultry, dairy foods, fruit
vegetables, bakery items and
staples.
Avoid at -home waste. H only live
