ods By Lectures
Tremenduos Interest is being evi-
denced on the part of Brownsville
and Valley housewives in the ap-
pearance next week of Mrs. Myra
Oliver Dougan famed traveler
home economist and domestic
science expert who will appear in
Brownsville September 23. to con-
duct the first of a ser.es of five
lectures comprising The Herald
cooking school for the current year.
Every social organization civic
club and neighborhood gathering
has found this remarkable wom-
an’s reputation and prestige an
item of vivacious conversation
among the more Intelligent house-
wives.
Many women are planning to at-
tend in groups either as organiza-
tions or small groups of intimate
circles of frelnds. Judging by tlie
increasing deluge of inquiries re-
ceived at The Herald office every
indication points to the fact that
Mrs. Dougan will come close to
retting a new attendance record
for cities the size of Brownsville i
when she opens her school.
Co-opert*lng with The Herald in
presenting this famous series of
lectures and demonstrations of the
very highest forms and greatest dis-
coveries of the culinary art. are
food manufacturers of national im- i
portance. who are viewing with in-
terest the remarkable results ob-
tained by Mrs. Dougan In -very
city in which she appears. Not only I
for the week alone but for months
ensuing the influence of her vivid
personality and the amazing revel-
ation of cookery possibilities dis-
closed by her. are to be found in
the communities she visits. The'
unfortunate housewives who are 1
unable to attend eagerly compare
notes with those who have been
privileged to secure the benefits of
of Mrs. Dougan's rich experiences |
and regretfully pledge themselves
that should the opportunity again
present itself they will let noth-
ing prevent them from attending !
her lectures.
With all Intimacy and informal-
ity of a close friend revealing her
favorite secrets in her own kitchen.
Mrs. Dougan strips the perplexities
and worries of cooking from this *
most ancient of arts and in a clear
graphic manner discusses enter- I
tsingly with her listeners the de-
velopment of balanced monus based I
cn intimate knowledge of the scien-
tific calculation of food values in
various items; recipes of the world s i
most famous chefs; the essential I
virtues of tried and tested national-
ly advertised food products: and |
above all extends a personal in-
timate interest in every housewife's
1 voblems by inviting their ques-
tions. either from the floor or at
the end of the class when she will 1
endeavor to work out for each In- 1
dividual woman desiring to counsel I
with her. the little items that i
transform what otherwise could be
drudgery into one of the most
fascinating and exact of the arts

Health worth more
than fortune
THE baby to be envied it the one I
who is Dorn with an inheritance
of perfect health to begin with.
And who’s lucky enough to have a
mother who knows how to build
up this fortune.
"Pferhaps I’m old fashioned” she'll
tay to the doctor who pronounces
her child physically 100% ar a baby
show “but this health certificate
means more to me than all the stock
certificates in the world. If ray baby
grows up strong and well I’m will-
ing to leave it to him to make a
career and fortune for himself.
"Already I’m teaching him the value
of regular habits. Regular sleep reg-
ular meals regular functions. He s
never once been off schedule not
even when he was cutting teeth or
traveling to the country. I make
sure of that by giving him Nujol
regularly.”
Nujol works so easily and naturally
that it won’t upset a baby under
any conditions. It keeps everything
functioning properly. It not only
prevents any excess of body poisons
(we all have them) from forming
hut aids in their removal. It is safe
and sure tfujol was pcrfccted by
the Nujol Laboratories 2 Park
Avenue New York.

Heir to millions
Just try Nujol for your baby. Gore
it to him regularlv for the next three
months See if it doesn't make thing*
much easier for both of you. Cer-
tainly it could do no harm — for
Nujol contains no drugs or medicine.
