To the Doctor for Beauty, New York women in future will have to go tn a doctor for part of their beauty treatment. Courts have ruled that depilatory electrolysis (removal of hair by electricity)—one of the most profitable beautv treatments—constitutes medical practice, and may be performed only by a licensed doctor. Beauty saloons are thinking of advertising for doctors to join their staffs in order to keep their business.

Granny’s Nightgown.

Grandma’s long-sleeved, highnecked nightgown is now the latest fashion in America. It is no longer necessary to sleep in a wisp of satin to “be modern.” Smartly styled flannel gowns and clever knitted numbers, are considered “quite the thing.” The new flannel gowns are not the unsightly oblong box affairs of other days, but streamlined. They are fitted and trimly tailored in a youthful manner.

Family Bonuses in Russia.

The wife of a lumberjack in the Azov Black Sea region of Russia, Mme. Fedorovna Maroschnickenko, received n bonus last year of 22,000 roubles ( £BBO at the official rate of exchange) as the mother of 14 children. This comparative fortune, many times what her husband earns as a worker, was paid under the new law providing financial encouragement to large families. Thousands of mothers received millions of roubles last year. In Moscow province alone 1473 mothers with many children registered as being entitled to the bonus. Eight of these mothers have 11 children each, 28 have 10 children, 108 have nine children and 325 have eight.

Breakfast Planning.

Breakfast, that all-important first meal of the day, is often a problem to many housewives. While it is true that this particular meal does not present as many different menu possibilities as lunch or dinner, nevertheless, if a housewife does a little careful planning she can prevent this meal from becoming a monotonoun repetition of the same foods served morning after morning.

Do You Know—

That as rhubarb absorbs all flavours but gives out none, it is most economical to add to expensive fruits used in filling pies or in making jam?

In making jam, if lemon and almond flavouring are added to the rhubarb juice the product is an imitation apple jelly. If you flavour the juice with a piece of lemon and a stick of cinnamon it is just like quince jelly?

That if sugar is added to mint before it is chopped, the mint will not stick to the knife?

That when steaming dumplings or puddings, if a cloth is placed over the steamer before the lid goes on, it will prevent moisture and ensure light puffy dumplings?

That a delicious flavour is imparted to a cup of cocoa if a pinch of cinnamon is added to it?

That currants may be quickly and easily cleaned hy well flouring the hands and rubbing the fruit as hard as possible between them? This is much quicker than dealing with each currant separately and is equally effective.
