The rubbing, as well as the oil, will help to soften the bony formation around the joints. Buttermilk Buttermilk is considered one of ’ the best cosmetics known. Apply it to the face and hands. The milk may be warmed, but should not be boiled. Cake Batter Do not let the cake batter stand after it has been mixed, as this causes air bubbles to form, making the cake coarse-grained. Complexion Hint Buttermilk, taken internally and also used as a cleansing agent, will aid materially in clearing the complexion. The skin which has become dry from the combined effets of seawater and the sun, should be washed several times a day with buttermilk. Old Potatoes When boiling old potatoes, if a teaspoonful of vinegar is added to the water, it will prevent the potatoes, in spite of their age, from turning black. The Hands Drop a little lemon juice into the palms of the hands while they are still moist after dishwashing, rubbing them well, and it will keep the hands soft and white.

Airliner Reports Near Air Collision Pilot Os Airliner Reports Near Miss ST. LOUIS (UPD—An American Airlines DC7 flagship, carrying 48 passengers and five crew members, narrowly missed collision with an unidentified military plane, the plane’s pilot reported Monday. , / Four passengers and two stewardesses were shaken up when the pilot, Capt. Doh Regan, Chicago, dove his plane suddenly to avoid what he called a “collision path" with a C 47 military transport about 35 miles northeast of here. St. Louis Municipal Airport officials said that apparently some of the passengers were thrown from their seats when the airliner nosed over from a 5,000 foot altitude. Regan said both his ship and the military transport were on “a collision path,” the military plane approaching from the left. A CAA safety officer at the field here said the incident was under investigation. He said his information indicated that the American Airlines plane had the right-of-way, and that evasive action was required of the military craft. Regan said he was over Staunton, 111., approaching St. Louis from Chicago at the time of the near collision Monday morning. Defendant Granted j Additional Time l William Scott Haley, 39, Deca- . tur, arrested in March for grand larceny, was granted additional I time to plead either in abatement I or in court for the charges filed . against him in circuit court.
