Laundry File

IF YOU purchase washables that require special handling, don’t mislay the tag giving washing direc~ tions. It might be a good idea, to keep a small file in the laundry’ for just such data.

Quilted Bridge Table Covers

IT'S NO longer necessary to remove the bridge table covers when refreshments are served. New quilted rayon covers are now available that have been treated: with a water-repellent finish. Spots are easily removed from the surface by wiping with a damp cloth. They come in a nice range of colors, are quilted in a neat chevron pattern and have elastics at the corners to insure a snug, firm fit.

Spinach Tips WITH. MODERN shipping methods, it is possible to purchase fine quality spinach all year around at reasonable prices. Select spinach that has crisp leaves of a rich green

color, fairly slender stems and which is free from sand. After washing thoroughly through several clear water rinses, cook in the water that slings to the leaves until just tender. Overcooking not only destroys its fresh color, but breaks down the texture and reduces the vitamin and mineral content of this vegetable.

Unique Bookends

A PAIR of unusual new bookends is made of crystal clear plastic in the form of ‘huge dice, the spots being carved concave shapes, beautifully polished.

Freshening Tip

FOR FRESHENING up between stops on long motor trips, try dipping a piece of clean cotton in cool water, adding a few drops of toilet water and then wiping off face, neck, hands and arms with it. Then apply makeup. You will feel refreshed.

Cleans Stained Glass

TO REMOVE stains or incrusta- |. tions from old glass, fill with warm soapy water to which a little borax has been added. Let stand tor several hours, then rinse in clear water. If the stains are stubborn, crushed egg shells added to a fresh solution and shaken in the stained vessel should clear it thoroughly.

‘Living Excercises’ Are Suggested By Mlle. Manka Rubinstein

This Week

THE EUROPEAN WOMAN is keeping up her face literally as well as figuratively these days, says Manka Rubinstein, sister and co-worker of Helena Rubinstein, the well-known beauty authority, who is at L. S.

nd personal consultations,

Mlle. Manka Rubinstein, who recently returned from abroad, reports that the beauty salons abroad are “carrying on as usual” and the woman over there regards it as more or less a duty to “put her best face forward” despite the war and its problems. American woman has somewhat the Jape attitude in the midst of war

suggests for the face: Puff out the cheeks hard, and, turning the head slowly from left to right, keep taking little puffs, keeping the cheeks full of breath, and puffing only with the mouth. A good alternative exercise to this is that delight of the younger generation—blowing bubbles. Exercise for the mouth and expression lines: The muscle around the mouth resembles a tire, and like a tire, must be kept firm and full, lest it collapse in the manner of a “flat tire.” In order to lift this muscle, do this exercise as often as you can: Pucker the lips strongly, lifting upper lip; restore lips to position and repeat. Throat and chin exercises: Stand and sit with the hands clasped behind the back, shoulders straight. Bend the head as far forward as possible, arching the neck. Then slowly tip the head backward, until the chin is high in the air, the throat stretched. Still holding this position, turn the head slowly to the right, then back to the front, and slowly to the left. Complete the exercise by dropping the chin again on the chest. ” ” 8

FOR A RECEDING CHIN: Relax completely and very slowly, drop head backward until a decided pull is felt in the muscles just below” the chin. Hold for 10 counts, then slowly drop head forward until chin touches chest. Repeat 15 times. Place the forefinger on top of the head and move head slowly to the right as far as possible. Hold for 10 counts and then move slowly to the left. Hold and repeat. Eye Exercises: Face a wall and fix eyes on a corner where wall and ceiling meet; from this point, move your eyes rapidly over the area of the wall, from one side to the other and from top te bottom, following the lines of an imaginary figure eight, laid side-wise.

Kiddies Clothes Sized New Way

By Science Service . NEW YORK, Oct. 28.— Giving small boys a break—ahead of the girls—in a clothes problem, scien-

ahead toward sizing schoolboy clothing according to body meas= urements, in place of the old hit-or-miss method of marking garments ‘size six” or “size eight.” Interest of the Boys’ Apparel Buyers’ Association in the Governmernt’s measurements of 147,000 real young Americans from four to 17 years old, is speeding efforts to put the new information into use first for boys from about kindergarten to sixth grade ages. The girls’ branch of the clothing industry is expected to speed up, in following suit. As a result of a joint committee of this association and the American Standards Association, meeting September, the latter is now about to take a letter ballot of its committee working with the problem. If the vote is favorable, the boys’ clothing industry will have the go signal for sizing youngsters’ garments by new and scientific standards. Boys of grade school ages, about five to 12 years, now cause some of the worst headaches in clothing business because they are so hard to fit, and mothers who shop for them have so many complaints and exchanges. At a preview fitting for the committee, seven realistic dummy models serving in the role of seven lively small boys enabled representatfves of retailer, manufacturer, and consumer organizations to study at leisure body proportions of America Junior as he really is. gins Fitting the patient dummiés with clothes from shops; the committee observed typical problems of the parent who brings Junior aged 6 to buy a new suit and finds that size sixes run large and small, that cheaper suits are apt to be skimpy, that pants are apt to be confiningly short through the body. It is expected that when marking boys’ garments by two basic dimensions is once adopted, after the conferences and arrangements now in progress, shopping mothers will not only have an easier time picking the best size to try on Junior, but the garments for Junior will be made by somewhat different pattern proportions, to fit the sizes of American boys determined by the nation-wide measuring project. Measurement of the 147,000 boys and girls, which is now causing progressive changes throughout the clothing industry, was'done last year by the U. 8S. Bureau of Home Economics, co-operat-ing with‘universities and other institutions and by aid of WPA financing.
