You advised mothers to keep harmful products locked up and out of the reach of children. I'm sure you will agree that busy mothers will not heed such ad vice mainly because of the in-| convenience to themselves.

Renting Paintings Artistic Business Located At Home By ROBERTA ROESCH As today's boom in culture moves forward, one way to keep in step with art--and earn money while you do it--is an art rental agency that you can Tun in your home. An art rental agency, as you know, is a business in which you'll make arrangements to display the work of artists and rent their paintings to individ- uals for a specified period of time. You split rental fees with the artist usually on a 50-50 basis. The rental fees may vary according to the arrangements you make. But a genera! rule is 10 per cent of the value of the} painting. The paintings are usually rented for a period of one to six months. To be successful in this home business, you'll need the follow- ing qualifications: a home that's located in a populous area (usu- ally 100,000 or. more) where an interest in art prevails; ade- quate space in your house to display the paintings without overcrowding them; a knowl- from a fa Double value in fa REG, TO 5.98 2a NY aN Oe SPECIAL PURCHASE SAVE UP To 1/2 shirts.

Year Of The Fiery Horse Blamed For Decline In Marriages, Births By DAVID BARNETT TOKYO (Reuters) -- This is the year of the fiery horse in Japan and, apparently because of an old superstition, both the birth and marriage rates are dropping drastically. The 1966 birth rate, in fact, is expected to be the lowest in Japanese history. The belief is that women born under the year of the fiery horse zodiacal combination are at best aggressive and self- willed, the very antithesis of the Japanse man's ideal wife.
