Leftover Coffee Used In Pie Filling No one wants to waste coffee these days. Yet few of us like the idea cf saving coffee from one meal to another and reheating. So. here's the perfect solution. Use that left-over coffee as the flavor ing agent in a sweet, gelatin pic j filling. Spread i: in a corn flake crumb crus. for best results. The crust is made quickly from corn flakes, i butter or margarine and sugar. 1 It's so simply made, the pie crust j need never see the inside of an 1 even. Just mix Ingredients and p:ess evenly and firmly around sides and bottom of pie pan. This makes an excellent dessert for family dinners or to serve to guests with tea. The entire recipe requires less than one half hour to prepare. COFFEE CHIFFON PIE WITH CRUMB CRUST 4 cups corn flakes 1/4 cup sugar 1/3 cup melted butter or mar garine 1 tablespoon unflavored gelatin 1 tablespoon lemon juice 1/2 cup sugar 1-1/2 cups cold coffee brew 14 teaspoon vanilla ; 2 egg whites Crush corn flakes Into fine | ! crumbs; mix with sugar and melt- j ed butter.

Unless, of course, you have naturally curly hair, or a permanent that looks like naturally curly hair. Remember when we used to gauge how good our permanent was by how long it lasted? The fact that our hair wasn’t fit to live with for a month or two before it finally settled down into recognizable waves was something we thought we had to put up with. But not any more, says Katherine Potter, head of the beauty and grooming service for Procter & Gamble. Now we know our permanent is good if the curls are soft and natural looking the minute the hair is unrolled from the rods. With new permanents, we don’t have to put up with fuzz for even a minute. Better curling solutions, permanents custom-made for specific hair textures, instant neutralizer with a hair conditioner built right in, all are designed to give you the most natural looking curl in the shortest possible time. And they last until your hair grows out or is cut off. So don’t be timid. With the new home permanents, your hair, not the calendar, tells when it’s time for another. And that time could be now. , of Lincolnton. The Rev. A. L. i Campbell officiated. > Presenting a pro ft: am of wed , ding music were Mrs. Jack Rhyne. ■ soloist of Lincolnton. and Mrs. A. , F.

Dairy j foods are excellent foods upon j which to build a well balanced re- ] : durtng diet. i For your luncheon, precede the salad with a cup of hot bouillon, j : Then with the salad serve rye j wafers, rolls, and butter, so your guests may have a choice.
