PEOPLES NOSES ARE
MUCH ABUSED ORGANS

NEW YORK, Feb. 1.-Onc of the
most prominent physicians in New
York city has called attention to the
fact that the average man pays no at.
tention to the most prominent feature
of his face the nose. AS a rule he
clamps it with eyeglasses that pinch
too much or impose upon it spcctacles
that are altogether too heavy. Then
he wonders, continues the doctor,
why the nose increases in size or per-
haps in rcdncss. Every part of the
face comes in for II vigorous Scrib
bling, but the nose, which needs ii
most of all; yet it is apt to be passed
over gently-probably because it Is
being brcathed through during the
nose gives more and more evidence of
being neglected. The tissues become
nabby and the pores are filled up. A
little massage would work wonders in
such cases. but it is rarely given.
