The girl who always surrounds herself with people and who never can bear to be alone even for an hour will lose her youthful beauty years before she should.

..._._____________ ACID-PROOF ENAMEL

There is an acid-proof enamel for the bathroom fixtures which is a little more expensive than the regular enamel, but it will not stain, although‘ it will soil. This special enamel has a hard texture which resists acid and mineral stains. It will, in fact, resist every acid but hydrofluoric acid, and this is seldom used ln the home. Remeber this when you are buy- ing bathroom or kitchen fixtures or porcelain enamel or porcelain enamel of cast iron.

A survey shows that 22 per cent. of children finishing grade school have damaged eye sight . When they have finished college, forty Per cent are so affected. At age forty. sixty-five per cent suffer from visual defects. And at age sixty, ninety-five per cent have eye defects.

This regrettable increase in eye troubles is in many instances caus- ed by eye strain resulting from reading, studying, sewing at night wag; poor light end not enough

Science measures light in terms of food candles. A foot candle is the amount of light one standard candle shines on a surface one foot away. Y

For seeing one‘s way around and performing ordinary tasks which do not require seeing very small objects. five-foot candles is suffici- ent. For reading coarse print and large stitch sewing, you can get along with tenfoot candles. For continued leading of ordinary print, or doing ordinary sewing, you need at least twenty-foot candles. For reading fine print and fine sewing yolfr require thirty- foot candles or more.

Your light may look bright, but

it ls the illuminsfion you lot on your work that saves your eyes from strain; Nod this diminishes rapidly the farther lwey you are from your lamp. Seated with your paper or work three feet away from your lamp. if. will require a light of st least 27 candle-power to produce the thirty-foot candles needed to be certain your eyes have light to do their work without denser of strain and permanent injury.

If you use electricity, your light company will recommend the right size bulbs to use.

If your home ls not wired. one of the new 800 cendlepower kerosene or gasoline pressure mantle lamps will supply plenty of "live” natural light for every home need. It takes the pressure to give you all the light you should have.
