POST-WAR WOOD — After the war you may be able to buy fur niture with pigment pumped into its pores so that the color can not wear off.

Empty wa ter after you use it. Keep in a dry place, protected from sun. WONDER DRUGS FOR CIVIL IANS—More penicillin for civil ians is a 1944 certainty.

MORE AND BETTER OVER- SHOES—Overshoes will be of better quality and easier to find this autumn. They will cost more however. ' Now Is The Time To- Can. Cut weeds. Keep eggs cool.

Plant sweet com for fall roast ing ears. Avoid poison ivy. Three leaves, remember. Be sure to get news of your de partment in the Echo. Take It Easy War nerves are bothering every one more or less these days, in cluding drivers. Everybody’s a lit tle touchy. Hence, there’s more of a premium on courtesy and good manners than ever. When some driver insists on hogging the road, let him have it. If a driver “runs the yellow light” against you, let him go ahead instead of trying to scare him with a “close shave.” If the driver behind you gets over-anxious, pull over and let hun go on his way. After all, you are in business for yourself and playing it safe will keep you alive to* do business an other day.
