Polished Look Is Envied By Others

By ALICIA HART NEA Steff Writer THERE'S ALWAYS a girl you envy because she couldn't look less than her spruced-up best. You'd learn the secret of her good grooming, if you went home with her, The belting is odds-on that] every ‘dud is in its proper place, clean, and in good repair. ¥ " . BUT THE job of maintaining good grooming week in and week out takes thought, organization and orderly habits. These points were brought up by a fomrer Red Cross correspondent, SHe's Faith Brewer, back from the CBI theater, with whom I discussed the spit-'n’- polish look of the girls in service.

IN A COUPLE of local stores next week they’ll be showing a new comb which, it is claimed, will put a wave into straight locks. The new.comb, called the Life

Wave, is a shiny chromium plated affair that's been tried out ex-

IF THE SALAD served you in a dressing or the Italian spaghetti days that the oil is mineral oil.

cooking have been very scarce -as So some chefs, salad dressing manufacturers and probably housewives have been using as a substitute mineral oil which is plentiful and cheap. : . - » SOME YEARS AGO doctors pretty generally prescribed mineral oil as a laxative. Persons on weightreducing diets were also advised to substitute it. for other oils and fats in foods. Mineral oil is not fattening because the body does not absorb it. It has since been found that mineral oil can seriously interfere with the body's absorption of carotene from which the body makes vitamin A, and of vitamin D, calcium and phosphorus needed for bone building among other things, and of the anti-bleeding vitamin K. It may still be prescribed by a doctor in some cases, but medical and health authorities warn against it without the careful supervision of a physiclan, ; » » » WHEN IT IS used for cooking and salad dressings, you may consume a good deal more than a doctor would prescribe, if he thought you should be taking it at all. Besides the possible harmful effect through depriving you of the hment from certain vitamins and erals, mineral oil may cause embarrassing and frightening symptoms or may cause illness in the form of stomach and intestinal upsets. Cases of ~both- results have- re-
