BROOKLYN EAGLE, AUG. 20, 1947 13 What MEN Are Doin Switch On Vacuum Eases Work Touch With Toe All That's Necessary For Operation BEATRICE JONES A toe-touch switch. which enables the homemaker to, turn the vacuum cleaner on and off without bending, and a foot operated ejector which allows the dirt receptacle to be thoroughly cleaned without the bag or dirt with the hands. are the chief features of a new cylinder type vacuum cleaner. Although previewed by household writers early this Spring, the new addition to the regular line of Hoover cleaners and a new.

automatic electric iron are being introduced on the consumer market today. To prove the great strides household equipment has made, the Hoover Company demonstrated various types of rug cleaning contraptions--and we mean contraptions--since their inception in 1831. Super- Woman Needed Most of these required the use of both hands, the feet and lots of muscle. For instance. in 1908 the "leisure type" perambulator cleaner was invented.

a model which gave the homemaker of that day a mere 50 pounds to push around her home as compared to 16 pound 5 ounce model. This was followed by a bellows type, cleaner worked with both feet while the housewife cleaned as much of an area as she could reach in this position. The rest of the apparatus strongly re-1 sembled a plow. The method of disposal in Hoover's new Model 50 simply requires detaching the suction end of the cleaner. The cylinder is then turned on end over a newspaper and the footoperated lever depressed and released a few times to shake loose all dirt.

At one time known as the "love apple" and grown as an ornamental plant. the tomato was thought to be poisonous. Today we know it is one of our important foods. Although it is technically a fruit, it is used as a vegetable. Served either raw or cooked, it adds color and flavor to a variety of recipes from first course to last.

It may also be used green (when cooked), although it is most commonly served in its ripe form. To our mind it is at its best when it is picked off the bush and eaten out of hand right on the spot. ever. we seldom have the opportunity to do this, here in the city. To Remove Skins stuffed.

Another, method is to hold the tomato on a fork over heat until skin bursts, then remove the skin with a sharp knife. We prefer the first method as less juice is likely to be lost; also if the fruit is placed in a strainer before dipping, several may be done at once. Green tomatoes are delicious fried. Cut the fruit in slices (peel first if desired): dredge with seasoned flour and saute in a small amount of fat in a heavy skillet. Brown on both sides.

If these foods are allowed to stand around in the hot moist air of the kitchen, they lose quality and may not keep well. In heat colors fade, and flavor and texture deteriorate. Also paraffin seals on1 jelly glasses may loosen. In dampness tin cans and metal tops of glass jars may corrode and eventually cause leakage. The spectalists add that cool, dry storage is needed also for best keeping of commercially canned goods.

This fad started in Hollywood and spread over the country. Women used their lip brushes to fashion lips the width and breadth they desired and avoided all indication of a cupid's bow--that little separation of the upper lip. Today, lip fashion has changed! Now, a woman should follow her natural lip outline and she should not use too vivid a color.

And the cupid's bow is back in favor. At least, there is an indication of it. Some lips have too definite a separation, which should be softened somewhat. It is true, too, that the very bizarre shades -the deeper violets, the violet oranges, the near-blacks-do not tie in well with the latest styles which tend to the very feminine. The lighter, more natural lipstick shades blend in with the softer but heavier hats, the wasp waists, the longer skirts.

Women again are going to look pamperedthat is, if they are to be in fashion. You will see the lighter fingernail shades coming back, too. You might even see the return of the buffing and polishing without any color at all! But it is still the fashion to make your fingertips and your lips match. If you reveal your toes, they, too, should match in color. There is a product to take every vestige of lip color off your face and another to hold on where you put it.

The newer lipsticks seem to have more gloss, but if your favorite brand lacks gloss you may cover your lips with a bit of vaseline after applying the color! People will admire you and listen when you speak if your voice is clear and pleasant. Miss Lindsay has written a leaflet, L-17, "Improving Your Speech."
