means chocolate.

level tablespoons of cocoa
plus one of shortening (use
polyunsaturated oil or
margarine) equals one
ounce of baking chocolate.

ornaments hooks in an

wrapping paper, use
aluminum foil decorated
with colorful ribbons or
tape.

Woodanl'i Pharmacy, Hi I N. Churrh Stm*.
rd. N.CW 426 5527
When sneezing
is healthy!
If you've got to sneeze,
then sneeze. It's a
healthy tradition.
Despite "Aunt Min
nie's" attempts to stifle
her sneeze as socially
impolite, we know it
serves a good purpose.
Sneezing is a protec
tive gesture whereby we
clear out a restricted
breathing passage. One
good "achoo" has been
known to propel irri
tating substances 50 feet
away. Perhaps this
explains why primitive
people, believing a por
tion of their soul was
expelled by sneezing,
always wished the
sneezers good health.
But, don't let sneezing
cany you away. Ask
your pharmacist about
the latest sneeze-control
tcuicdies and hang onto
your "soul."
