Hints For Homemakers j -• 1 HOT, HUHTIMG FWST-tVmn let hqt, hurting feet lake the joy out of living. Buying note: If your feet tend to (well in hot weather, always try on new abort at the end of the day. Too tight ahoet cause pre*tare that leads to eorns and calluses. Travel tip: Feet sometimes bum and swell on on long tripe. Always wear youi moat comfortable shoe* when you are traveling on planes or trains. (To Help circulation, put feet up | whenever poesible; walk around I lit stops. I Foot powder, alcohol or cologne rube, an epsom salts bath, mas sage are boons for burning feet. Another help: Change stockings often. Switching regularly from high to low heels saves strained muscles. Take time out every two weeks for a complete, luxurious pedicure. You need k good, stiff nail brush, pumice, .emery board, orange stick, cotton, nail clippers, polish—if you polish your toenails—polish remover, plus cuticle remover and oil or cream lotion, and a towel. Soak feet in soapy water at least ten mlAutes. Scrub well, concentrating on cuti Bright Makeup Good For Fall Bright make-up Is in fashion for the fall and winter months to keep pace with the bright colors of the new clothes. It seems the mousy, lacklustre hair colors are not in keeping with all this brightness. If you are so inclined, there are any number of things you can do to make your hair more attractive. Some of the more old-fashioned of us think that frequent shampooing, a good hairbrush and the proper diet are enough. However, if you are Interested, you can tint your hair, bleach it, streak it, highlight it or change the color altogether. Hair coloring materials come under two headings: those whose effect is temporary and those referred to as tints or dyes. The permanent colors are of two types: those that coat the hair and those which penetrate into the hair shaft. The temporary rinses have a ; softening effect on the hair and leave it soft and shining. This seems to be the best for your money. No matter what the style is to be really attractive, one must remain natural looking. Too often a dyed head looks just like what it is and no more. Sun tips are a new Parisienne craze. Just a few strands of hair, in strategic spots about the head are bleached a lighter color. If you are going to color your hair yourself, there are a few facts you would do well to know. First, your hair grows about half an inch per month. It was much faster during the summer than during the winter. The ends of the hair are more porous and pick up color much faster than the lengths. ties, and any rough spots Rinse and dry. With soapy pumice atone, gently smooth down ealluaes or rough spots Clip naflH straight across (you're courting an ingrown toenail if you cut down at corners) and smooth rough edges with emery board. Rinse feet again and dry carefully. So This Is New York (Continued from page four) Florida and California netted population gains of more than two-thirds between 1840-1900. Some doubtiesa benefitted by their moves; others were said to be "one jump ahead of the sheriff." A promising idea to increase highway safety has been conceived by two Army engineers. The plan calls for yellow and red sections of pavement in advance of intersections. These portions of colored road are integrated with "Caution" and "Stop" signs which, studies show, all too many motorists ignore. The theory is that the colored pavement, first yellow, followed by red, will automatically warn of approaching danger. Tests of this interesting idea are being made at Fort Hamiton in Brooklyn, at West Point and at my old World War It post, Governors Island. A traveling man here tells of picking up a Gideon Bible In a Milwaukee hotel. Pasted inside the cover was a sheet which said. "If you are lonely and discouraged, read Psalms 23 and 27." After reading these, he noticed a pencilled note in a feminine hand on the margin: "If you're still lonely, phone Y 1043." HURT MAN SAVES BOY Winters, Texas—i. Y.
