Begin with a sauna bath. Even Charlton Heston likes saunas. Install a bidet in your bathroom. Love Tom Jones. Adore Barbra Streisand. Get a dress shirt with hundreds of layers of overlapping eyelet ruffles. When you are hostess, wear evening skirts. Serve baked marrow bones. Appear in your own hair, because wigs have had it. So has LSD. Don't wear mink anywhere but to bed (sable is safe enough elsewhere), and don't ever mention Cleopatra...

His right arm, in a cast from the wrist to the elbow, was supported by a black-bandanna sling. "I'll ride with you," the Governor told his visitor. "Turn right and go on down that road.

Near an earthen dam squatted a low, one-room camp house where Connally, 46, and his wife Nellie, 44, spend many weekends. Mounted deer heads, shot by the family, adorn the walls.

The job included a last-minute appraisal of the massive analysis presented by the American Cancer Society's E. Cuyler Hammond to the A.M.A. in Portland, Ore. (TIME, Dec. 13). At the end of 14 months' study, the committee...
Give No Cash. Sometimes, because of the sales, customers exchange a return for one or two cheaper items, but stores depend upon commission-conscious clerks to lure customers into trading up to a more expensive gift, or buying a yellow shirt to go with the yellow sweater they were given. Giving refunds in cash is avoided wherever possible; Houston stores have joined together in a pact against giving cash refunds unless, says one merchant, "a customer carries his protest to lying on the floor and kicking his feet." Since few customers have enough post-holiday energy left, they are usually...
