The coast ranges of Oallfomla. unlike

HOW TO SAVE MONEY
WHEN SHOPPING
By MRS. HARLAND H. ALLEN
TO BUY A GOOD COMB
The din^rence in tne wearing qualities
of the dilTerent grades of combs
may b^ a bit of new and useful information
to the shopper.
There Is a wide range In the quality
of tlicse goods. But what Is hardest
fcr most of us to believe, li that these
differences are not due to the differ^
ent grades of celluloid, used, but in
niost Insiances to tlie coloring matter
used, the inetliod of manufacture, and
the way the article ia finished.
There are three tj'pes of combs, the
sawed tooth, cut tooth, and tlie molded
or pressed.
The sawed tooth combs are the best
to buy. ,ThlH is because of the method
of manufacture. In cutting the teeth,
tite saw goes straight to the base of
the tootli. and thus glvea a rectango*
lar opening at the base. Ifl the cut
tooth comb, two combs are made at
once, and one set of teeth comes out
of the space between the teeth of the
other comb. This makes the (^wnlnga
wedge-shaped. Medium-priced combf
are generally molded. It Is difficult
to distinguish them froin cut combs,
but they are lighter In weight
When buying a comb, Iben, It IB ah
ways wise to look carefully at the base
of the teeth. If the openings are
square, and the teeth are about the
same distance apart at the base and
at the point. It Is a sawed tooth comb.
Wlien the openings are wedge-shaped,
you are looking at a cut tooth or mold;
ed comb. You pay more for a sawed
tooth comb, because It takes as mucb
labor to make one of that type aa It
doea two of the cut variety, but the
satisfaction of using one Justlflcs the
difference In cost You will notice the
difference In the way the hair catches
and pulls while sliding through the
wedge^haped openings of the cut
combs, while It passes easily and
smoothly through tlie square openings
of ihe' sawed tooth kind. _
Meat cneap comns mrve tne tootn at
one . end spreading out a little from
the rest This happens In the procesa
of manufacture, and Is bent Into ahape
somewhat when the comb la finished,
but a little bnlge can always be detected.
