How May [ Improve My Complexion?
BY EDWIN F. BOWERS, MD.

"HERE are a number of causes for
sallow complexion, and an equal num-
ber-or perhaps few more-methods
of getting rid of it, If the skin is merely
colorless and sallow, and the whites of
the eyes remain unstained, the cause is
usually anemia and sluggish circulation.
IT, however the whites of the eyes are
yellow, it is more than likely that the con-
dition is due to jaundice.
In very severe cases Uhe so-called
"black jaundice") the skin may darken
to bronze or greenish brown. And
there is likely to be considerable itch
ing of the skin, frequently accompanied
by hives and boils.
Jaundice is usually caused by ca
tarrhal swelling of the gall-duct-the
small duet that conveys the bile from the
gall-bladder into the upper intestine.
When this little tube mot much thicker
than lead pencil) is damned up, the bile
can not be properly eXcreted, and con-
siderable portion of it is absorbed into the
circulation. This paints the skin saffron.
1t also produces the detection, or even
melanchola, that results from the toxic
action of excess bile. In this condition the
liver also develops more or less pain and
swelling.
Worry, mental shock, or fright are fire.
quently responsible for jaundice. But the
most common cause of this thickening of
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1915-09-26

the gall-duct is malaria. A judicious
avoidance of mosquito bites is the best
preventive for this variety of jaundice
although quinine and other remedies
taken at physicians direction-may be
necessary if the bitten one fails to slap
the mosquito in time. Mosquitos, it is
hardly necessary to say, are the first and
only cause of malaria.)

Rules for Anemics

PUT if the sallowness be due to anemia,
you must first cure the anemia. Eat
plenty of good, wholesome food-includ
ing meat And remember that lobster,
ice-cream, candy, pickles, pie, and pud
ding should never be eaten at one meal.
Also that tea and coffee darken the skin.
Get sufficient fresh air, day and night.
Drink plenty of pure water Leave alcohol
for those who don't care what becomes
of their health and compilations.
Avoid the rocking-chair habit, and cult
vate instead the love for exercise-par-
ticularly exercise taken out-of-doors.
Loosen corset strings and remove the
weight of constructing clothes. Secure
plenty of refreshing sleep.
Keep all the physiological functions at
concert-ptch; for to be clean outside,
with the flush of rose in the cheeks, it is
absolutely necessary to be clean inside.

What More Could | Have Done?
&-. By ALBERT w. ATWOOD

WAS not hasty before | invested"
writes painfully astonished reader
who signs himself G. +. "About two
months ago made an investment in the
- Company. AT the present time
it is in financial difficulties. Their rating
in Dun and Bradstreet was AL. I'M
derstand they We're highly recommended
by the -- Bank. What could hare
further done TO protect myself"
This is a pretty tough question to
answer. 1t is one of the hardest that has
ever come to me. The company in ques-
ton was large concern, with steadily
growing business. Now that it has fallen
upon evil days, any one can see why its
stock was poor investment. Hindsight
in financial matters is strikingly more
common than foresight. By way of illus
tration, it is now pretty well established
that the reason this particular company
reported SUCH big earnings year after year
was because the expense that was incurred
in placing certain lines of goods upon the
market was. carried as an asset even after
those particular goods were no longer
popular and salable.'
In other words, the company did not
set aside from it's earnings enough to write
off obsolete and worn-out goods. Thus
the earnings appeared larger than they
really were. But only the insiders knew
that this species of quitting was going on,
and even financial experts who were other
wise suspicious of the stock had to admit
grudgingly that the earnings were large.
| do not know of any way to prevent "in-
siders" from wrecking company by fail
ure to write off enough for depreciation,
except perhaps where the Interstate Com
merce Commission or some unusually
strict public utilities commission has
authority.
g. f. says he looked up the concern in
Dun and Bradstreet, and he understood
that a prominent bank spoke well oft. The
true function of Dun and Bradstreet is to
supply trade information, not that for the
benefit of small investors. They indicate
the amount of capital employed by firm,
and its general standing in it's trade, which
really means-and this is what the SUBJ
scribers to Dun and Bradstreet want to
know-whether the concern is prompt
pay with dealers who sell it supplies, and
so on. A company may have a big bank
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1915-09-26

account, may pay its bills promptly, and
yet its stock may prove a poor invest
ment. In fact, often the most unscru-
pulous promoters keep the largest bank
account and pay with the greatest promp-
titude, just to keep up front.
AS for the --- Bank recommending
this stock, probably what the bank really
did-and this is all a bank reference fire.
quently amounts to-was merely to state
that the company kept a large account
with it.
Three Signs of Danger
THE company was engaged in a profit
able, legitimate, and extensive bust
ness. But the president, not satisfied
with his great success, promoted almost
a score of other concerns in all manner of
diverse, unrelated enterprises, many of
them risky in the extreme. This was the
first danger sign. The second appeared
when it was learned that customers of the
original successful company were being
eXhorted to buy stock in the new and as
yet untried enterprises.
But the one symptom that fnade fffan-
cial people most wary was certain sensa-
tionalism, a certain yellowness, employed
in selling stock. To illustrate, elaborate
charts were published to show that the
stock was better in every way than that
of the Pennsylvania Railroad. Now, when
a promoter tries to palm off his own wares
by attacking standard, established in
situations, it is danger sign. If any
one pointed out that reputable brokers
and investment bankers never recon-
mended the companys stock, the answer
probably was that these brokers and
bankers were jealous because the stock
was being sold directly by the company
instead of through them.
The failure of the - COMPANY is a
large subject, and can not be adequately
covered in this short article In general
! should say to G. E.: The next time you
make an investment don't mistake the
function of the commercial rating agen-
cies; consult your own bank rather than
rely on the purported Endorsement of some
other bank, which may mean much or
little; and, finally, it is a pretty safe rule
that any stock is dangerous whose pro-
moters use up much white paper in de-
nouncing established financial institutions

JANE HAYDEN.

Jane Hayden lived with her father
and grandmother, for her mother had
died when Jane was baby.
Jane did not live in a city or town,
like most little girls, or in a house
with a garden around it, for Jane
lived in a lighthouse, long distance
from land, and sometimes she did not
see anyone but her father and grand
mother for weeks at time.
Once in a while her father took her
in the boat when he went ashore for
supplies, but there were always SO
many things to bring back that there
was not room for Jane very often.
Jane had never been to school. Her
father had taught her to read and
write, and there was not a place on
the map that Jane did not know about,
she could tell the exact location at
once Of any city or river.
Jane wanted to go to school as other
girls did, about whom she had read,
but it would cost more money than
her father could afford, and Jane
studied in her lonely home, making
