Trouble getting up in the mornings? This will do the trick! When
the alarm sounds, the propeller is launched up into the air &
flies around the room.
To turn off the alarm you'll have to get up, find it & return it
to the base. This digital alarm clock has a large easy to read
backlit display. It also has an easy to set snooze function.

READING BEAUTY PRODUCTS' FINE PRINT IS WELL WORTH THE TIME
ABBY: As you know, most women invest a lot of time in
addition to money so they can look and feel beautiful.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration's Office of Women's
Health would like to encourage women to get the most out
of their health and beauty products by taking the time to
read the directions and following them properly. Our message
to women is, "Take Time to Care About ... Health and Beauty."
In celebration of National Women's Health Week (May 11 to May
17), we are offering a free Health and Beauty Kit that
includes tools for making informed choices about the cosmetics
and other products women use every day. This collection of
fact sheets is available in English and Spanish, and is an
example of how the FDA has been working to promote the safe
use of health and beauty products ever since the landmark
Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act was signed in 1938.
Please let your readers know about this opportunity. The
information will be sent to them without charge. This effort
has already been paid for with taxpayer dollars, including
postage and handling.
-- KATHLEEN UHL, M.D., ASSISTANT COMMISSIONER FOR WOMEN'S HEALTH
KATHLEEN: I'm pleased to pass the word along, and
congratulations for 70 years of progress on cosmetic safety.
Your Health and Beauty Kit is informative, and I'm sure readers
will find the tips and easy-to-read materials on cosmetics,
contact lenses (and more) of interest.

ABBY: My husband and I haven't lived here very long. Our only
company is a dear friend, "Sid," who lives nearby. I love to
entertain and have guests over, so naturally I invite Sid to
dinner quite often.
My problem is Sid never arrives on time for a meal. I usually
have to tell him dinner will be ready an hour earlier than it
really will be, so he'll show up before it is finished cooking.
I take pride in having everything ready at once for a large
meal. When I must keep things warm for an hour or more extra,
it not only ruins the mood but the food dries out. At Easter
we had Sid over and told him dinner would be at 1 p.m. When I
called him at 1:30, he told me he hadn't even showered or
shaved yet to come over.
Is there a polite way to show my frustration at Sid's lack
of punctuality, or should I stop inviting him to join us for
meals? I don't want to be rude.
-- FRUSTRATED IN THE KITCHEN
FRUSTRATED: By all means stop inviting Sid for meals.
Instead, invite him for leftovers, and if he asks why, do
not be shy about explaining (politely, of course). And,
because you love to entertain, I'm advising you to join
some service organizations so you can widen your circle of
friends.
