...advertisers well know, women buy far more body deodorants than men do. Yet it is equally well known that, while women merely glow, the same occasions put men in a downright sweat. This damp fact has been experimentally confirmed by Dr. James Daniel Hardy and his co-workers at Manhattan's Russell Sage Institute of Pathology. Last week they announced their findings-appropriately enough, at a symposium of temperature held by the American Institute of Physics...
...idea is usually good, although it occasionally sounds a little like a taxi-horn on a foggy night. His alto sax work is much better, and is probably the best imitation around of Ellingtonite Johnny Hodges. All in all, it would seem to me that the slogan.

This is the classic picture of the dread angina pectoris (heart attack).

...importance of the Poles in the U. S. is still fairly minor. Immigrants settled on farms in New England, Pennsylvania, Texas, the North Central States, went into factories, crawled into mines, swaggered into the Pacific lumber camps,' poured their sweat and labor into the expanding machinery of U. S. industry, sent their brawny children to college, where their names have recently emerged as problems to football cheering sections...
