Dr. William Feinbloom, i'l New York, said that seven chil- dred in institutions for the blind had already been returned to pub- lic schools through use of the Irn."^. ACID CHECKS MOLD The problem of bread mold, en- hanced in the last two decades by development of the sliced, wrap- ped loaf and the demand for a vtoist loaf, has been solved through discovery that propionic Jirid in salt form delays mold for- Hiation from two days to two week.s. The acid does not advers- riy affect the flavor or texture of the bread. JELLY, SECRET OF STRENGTH Vibration of a protoplasmic jelly inside the "sinews" of mus- rle"! is the secret of strength. This discovery was described to the .American Association for the Advancement of Science by Dr. Ebcn J. Carey, a recognized au- thority on muscles, nerves and 't>ones. The protoplasmic jelly fills the thread-shaped cells that link to- gether to form the "sinews" or bundles of muscles. This jelly vi- brates to cause the well-known contraction and expansion of raus- ckfl in action. Dr. Carey has map- I>«d on 25,000 slices of muscles, •bout 1/ 1,000th of an inch thick. How Can I? BY ANNE ASHLEY Q. â€" How can I make an indel- ible stencil ink? A. â€" Mix two parts sulphate of manganese, one part lampblack, four parts sugar (all in powder form). Then make a paste by ad- ding a little water. Q. â€" How can I keep the flavor Kiid vitamins in vegetables? A. â€" Don't cook them in too ninch water. Cauliflower, cab- bage, spinach, and string beans u«ed no more than a fourth to a half cup of water to start steam- ing and releasing their juices. Q. â€" What are some of the iitarch substitutes? A. â€" Borax water in place of iitarch for stiffening voiles, dimity, •nd sheer, fine collars and jabots. (Jae three tablcspoonfuls of sugar kD a gallon of water for organdie, weak gum arable solution for silk Mod crepe, and bran water or rice water for cretonne and figured Rfittons or linens. Q. â€" How can 1 prolong the wear •f shoes? A. â€" Apply several coats of co- mI varnish to the soles and vamps. Hboes treated in this way will sel- dom have to be half-soled. This bi particularly good for children's •hoes that receive such hard wear. Q. â€" How can I clean a whitc- l>aintcd article effectively? A. â€" Try using water in which two or three onions have been boiled, and see how readily the 4irt is removed. Q._.How can I fatten thin hands? A.â€" Wash the hands in hot water, dry, and rub a little olive •i) into them. Make the applica- tion before retiring so that the oil ran remain on n* lonf as powible.

HaveYouHeaid The teacher wrote on the black- board: "The horse and the cow is in the stable." "Now," she said to a little boy, "what is WTong with that sen- tence?" Little Boy â€" "I think you should say, 'The cow and the horse ie in the stable'." Teacherâ€" "Why ?" IJttlc Boyâ€" "Ladies first." "That fellow," laid a col- lege profetsor of â-  certain •tudcnt, "put* up • soo<l bluff but there is nothing to hini. Open the front door and you â-  re in hi> back-yard." The amateur gardener was showing the beauties of his green- house. "This," he said, pointing to a flower, "belongs to the petunia family." "Docs it?" said the sweet young thing. "I suppose you're minding it while they're aw'ay." â€" o â€" "Waiter, never bring me â-  steak like this again." "Why not, lir?" "V. rll, it (imply iin't done." â€" â€" A patient, escaped from an in- sane asylum, was at last discov- ered in earnest conversation with a coloured guard at a military en- campment. By means of signs be- hind the maniac's back, the attend- ants were at last able to capture him. Then one of them happened to glance toward the guard and de- manded in astonishment : "Why, man, what's the matter with you? You're trembling and the sweat is pouring off your face." "Yassir," gulped the negro. "Ross, after dat feller been talk- in' to me five minutes 1 knowcd one of us was crazy, and now I've found out it's him. I'se so reliev ed â€" so relieved !"

Music Increases Milk Production Domri, Japanese news agency, seasoned its report of events in China last week with an account of how a Japanese dairywoman in- creased her herd's milk output. "Mrs. Shiina", the Domci despatch said, "has succeeded in increasing by from 10 to 20 percent, lbs milk given by her cows by playing to them music while milking.

If you find the person, on whom you are calling, is busy, let him finish what he's doing. When you converse, make your remarks brief and to the point. Do not rush through the interview as if you had to make a train, but state your case quickly and plain- ly- Other don't.s for the office call- er: Don't hesitate to shake hands. That's an old office custom. Don't try to bluff your way past the reception desk. If you have a legitimate reason to get into an office you'll be admitted. Once you've tried to bluff, however, you have closed the door against fu- ture call.". For receptionists, like elephants, never forget. Hint to the man who has a wc man caller: Itise when she enters the room, just as you would at home. Eye Defects Blamed On Scenic Changes An export in visuril dis/;ases told his colleagues last week that "modern man is living at the end of his nose â€" and his eyes object." Dr. Charles Sheard, director and professor of biophysical research at the Rochester, Minn., Mayo Foundation, told the .American -Academy of Optometry many eye faults were due to the movement of persons from farms into cities. "The duties of man's eyes thus have been increased from merely seeing a large piece of farm equip- ment or an animal at the end of the pasture, to seeing minute ob- jects within arm's length."
