physician to combat hypertension In addition to the pills drank nearly fifth of alcohol every day My husband and family did what they could to help me but it was as you say strictly donyourself project ï¬nally realized was on collision course with disaster and would probably die from pills and booze within year if didnt get help had no income of my own no insurance and we had no savings Our family doctor suggested go to the Country Medical Centre and see social worker cant say enough about the gentle and understanding help the sincere and sympathetic understanding received at the centre After complete physical was referred to psychiatrist who was in private practice but he took my case even though was statepaid patient Here again zvas treated as competently as one of his sedanhour patien Now year later am back with my husband and the future looks rosy still have some of the old fears and Ill probably have them for long time but now can handle them ON MY OWN which is as it

the interviewer stops housewife in supermarket and asks if her husband would prefer potatoes or dressing with his din ner You know the one mean Its where the wife smiles and says Potatoes My husband would definitely prefer potatoes They place call to her husband and thisturkey says Dressing Definitely would prefer dressmg When the interviewer presses for an answer on why they never have dressing

would it be better to have this done BB DEAR 88 The decision to have this done by commercial laundry or to do it yourself would have to be your decision but will tell you how to do it at home The condition of the pillows may Influence your decision After flufting one up and then holding it on the palm of your hand If the feathers sag toward each end they real iy need work When washed in your own automatic washer first open an inch of the seam at each end of FEATHER pillows and then pin together with safety pins Fill washer with warm or cold water and two pillows can be put in at one time When put ln water press down on pillow to expel any air Add heavyduty detergent and run washer at regular speed for about 10 minutes Sew up ticking before drying Set dryer at speed for regular fabrics and tumble until dry which will be about two hours Drying wet feathers may cause an odor so do not be alarmed The above is recommended by various authorities but for FEATHER pillows only POLLY DEAR POLLY Sometimes am called away or get busy doing something else after have baked round layers for cake and they completely cool in the pans found that setting them on top of pan of boiling water for two or three minutes loosens them and they pop right out of the pans with no cracks in the bottom or sides They are then ready to frost the short time over the boiling water does not heat up the cake part This is especially nice if am cooking something that requires boiling water GLORIA DEAR POLLY When making ladies slacks press the creases in before sewing them together find this makes it easier to get or make nice straight crease fold each piece in the center the front crease is straight up and the back is slanted toward the top of the slacks do hope this proves as easy for others as it has been for me MRS M0 DEAR POLLY My teenager is great little cook but after while discovered we had accumulated drawer full of rubber spatulas with broken handles remedied this situation by buying fiveeighths inch wooden dowel sticks at the hardware store Then shaved the end that is inserted in the rubber top for good fit and sanded the other end to make round handle These are even better and stronger than new One dowel makes three handles MARY
