A SAFE REMEDY FOR CHILDREN

THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH. MONDAY, MARCH 27, 1933.

CASTORIA has always proved a safe, effective, and harmless remedy for children's common ailments. The Castoria formula was especially made for babies and children by a famous physician more than sixty years ago. Castoria regulates the delicate stom- ach and gently stimulates the bowels. Children like Castoria because it tastes good. It is mild and gentle in "action and never gripes.

THE WORLD OF WOMEN

WOMEN WHO WILL

NOT REST.

The Necessity for Repose.

How

"I'm never off my feet!" often this plaint of the worried, hard-worked housewife is heard! How true it is--and how unneces sary!

Granted that much of her work must be done "on her feet," that she must stand for such things as bed-making, sweeping, dusting,

&c. Yet there remains # great deal that can be done just as well sitting down.

Take, for instance, all the worki at a kitchen sink. A woman, no matter how fired, will stand 'day after day over the sink, without apparently realising that she could peel potatoes, wash up, clean fish and vegetables, and do the hundred and one other sink jobs equally efficiently were she seated. Simi- larly, there is no need to stand to mix cakes or puddinga or roll pastry at the kitchen table.

The best seat for these places

is a high officestool. It has neither back or arms to get in one's way, and it takes up the minimum of space. Should there be a separate kitchen and scullery, then there should be two stools, one always ready at the sink and the other by 'the tabla... A chair is not no suit- able for the purpose, for one needs to sit rather high above one's work, and experiments "should be made with sink," stool, and table to nacertain the most comfortable height, then the stool legs can be cut accordingly.

It is a queer thing, but the more overdone a woman is the less she seems capable of resting! In- stead of seizing every occasion for conserving her precious nervous energy, she lęta slip one golden opportunity after anether. The kettle is not quite on the boil per- haps, or a dish in the oven needs a few more minutes. Everything else is ready--and the woman waits "hanging over" the fire! "It's only a minute or two," she says, "it's not worth sitting down."

Minutes, however, mount up won- derfully quickly into hours, and, if used aright, these intervals throughout the day will make all the difference between work ae- complished without undue fatigue and work that brings her near to breaking point.

Absolute repose should be the rule for these breathing spaces-- repose in an easy chair (a lighti bentwood rocker is excellent), with eyes closed, feet up on the fender, and every muscle relaxed to the uttermost.

A Housewife's Notes

To retain the colour and flavour of earrots, wash and boil before peeling..

1:

Joan Crawford; Hollywood, The sports dress and top coat ensemble is mak- ing headway here as a runabo ut outfit,

Joan Crawford has a gray tweed two-some of this type, the dress very simple, with square neckline, buttoned down one corner with three metal buttons, the skirt's fullness coming in kick pleats in the centre of the front and back. The topcoat is very, very English, with mannish cut. patch pockets, and three- quarters -length. She has a squarish beret of the same gray tweed, a beret that is different,

No single type of costume can be upheld as the thing to wear anywhere, in Hollywood. The variety of costumes is what creates things Interesting. Take luncheon, for instance This week these varied costumes loomed as mighty smart on their wearers:

Glaudette Colbert, back from New York minus her sinus trouble lunching in the Paramount Cafe wearing a black and white diagonal plaid dress, with a tight fitting black crepe jacket, and a black ribbon hat, tiny, with fringed bow at the top of it.

Barbara, Kent, lunching at the Brown Derby, smart as a picture in a gray wool spring suit with skirt and three-quarters coat, gray felt hat and gray shoes.

Gretchen Wilson, going into the RKO, wearing a brilliant red dress and topcoat to match, with an equally brilliant red turban,

Diana Wynyard, at Sard's wearing a sleek black crepe dress, with exquisite lingerie touches, a tiny black hat tilted over her right eye and a mink coat.
