with color

-@For children.eager to express their
-love and appreciation for family and
. friends, personally crafted keepsakes,
-such as photo frames, provide a way to

“treasure special moments.

~ Children of all ages can easily make
“beautiful photo frames for holidays and
“special occasions, such as Mother’s
. Day, Father’s Day, and Easter. Materials

you'll need: brightly colored ribbon,
cardboard photograph mat (available in

.¥arious sizes at arts and crafts stores),
“Elmer's GluColors (available at most:

“Mass merchandise stores, craft and
“hobby outlets, drug stores and grocery
‘ stores, in six bright neon colors: orange,
“pink, blue, green, red and yellow), and
“assorted trimmings (buttons, fabric,
* -jewels, lace, etc,).

t Let the creativity begin by applying .

“GluColors straight from the bottle to
:the photograph mat, Because they are
‘more dimensional than ordinary paints,
‘you can outline a free-form or swirl
design — or for a different effect,
spread the glue evenly over the entire
area. Kids also can place objects of
their choice onto the colored glues
while still wet.

The possibilities for decorating your
frame are endless. Allow 24 hours for
the glue to dry. Once dry, add the per-
sonal touch — a photo capturing a spe-
cial moment.

® Mom. She shaped your future. This
Mother's Day, you can change the
shape of her future.

You can make this change by edu-
caling your mother about the impor-
tance of calcium building and main-
taining good bone health and alerting
her that her calcium may reduce the
risk of osteoporosis. [t's a little present
that makes a big difference.’

Osteoporosis is.a potentially. painful, -
hone-crippling discase that afflicts
more than 25 million Americans —
and it's more than a broken bone in old
age. In fact, complications of this con- -
dition have been ‘associated with
increased mortality. .

By the lime a woman reaches 70, she
has a 40 percent chance of having a frac-
wre that is related to asteaporosis. Sadly,
one in five women do not live ‘more than
one year alter a fractured hip.

These are just a few o the breaks of
having osteoporcsis,

Women are eight times more likely
to develop osteoporosis than men. In
fact, one ta four mothers will develop
osteoporosis this year. Asa tesult, the

bone loss and fractures. Studies con-
firm that bone mass can be increased in

younger women before menopause if.

ed daily.

Unfortunately, mast women do not
get enough calcium through their daily
diets and must look to an alternate
source. to obtain 1,000 to 1,500 mil-
ligranis daily. For many, the most con-
venient way to ensure adequate calci-
um intake is to supplement their daily
diets with calcium tablets, But experts
caution that all calcium supplements
are not alike, It is best to choose a stip-
plement, such as Os-Cal®, that has
proven absorbability.

In addition to ensuring adequate daily
intake of calcium, experts recommend a
regular exercise regimen, 2 nutritious
diet, and eliminating alcohol and smok-
ing. In addition, women should consider
