Your request quite surprises me.
 Spina Bif1da.
 Our second baby died after living IF hours. The doctor said it had an opening in the spine that had nevess grown together and I am afraid that if I was to have more children, the same thing might happen, so please tell me if it is just a fall or a freak of nature.
 Answer-The child which died had the same nature as cleft palate, or harelip. The membranes covering the spinal cord are intact and whole; but their usual bony covering is de- ffcient. Spina bifida does not neces- sarily occur by reason of any here ditary ailment. Though this is seri- ous condition, much can be done for it by medical means. and falling these by surgery. Should other children come to you they will not be likely to have this defornity.
 All inquiries addressed to Dr. Hu- ber in care of the ssHeaIth Talks de- partnlent will be answered fin these columns in their turn. This requires considerable time. however, owing to personal or quicker reply is desired, a stamped and seR-addressed envel. ope must be enclosed with the queS- tion.-The Editor.

S25,00O FRAUD
 CLAIMED BY
 ANNA HERz0G

Alleging that Thomas N. Cooke, well known Greenwich broker, has de- frauded her to the extent of 5000. a Superior court action was started today by Anna Herzog who, since 1919, has been residing in Paris, France. It was when she left for France. Sshortly after the end of the war, that she placed valuable Green wich property in the brokers hands. to sell on five per cent. commission basis. She also retaifed an attor- ney in New York who was not post ed as to real estate values in Green wich.
 Prior to January IA, 1920. accord ing to the writ, Cooke. representing to the New York attorney that the property was greatly run down. and that a price of s22,000 would be a good one, sold the property to one CaId J. Wo1d. The plaintiff in the action declares that the holdings, which were located at 52 Maple street, were conservatively worth s42.- 900, and that the sale to Wold was an effort to defraud; that Wold never paid cent, but was a dummy in the matter and that Cooke later, to his own advantage, negotiated a second sale to a, New York company, with a subsequent large profit to himself.

BLUE RIBBON
 HAGLER CASE
 HEARD TODAY

Hopes that the now famous Blue Rfbbon-Hagler case might be com- p1eted this week were shattered when Attorney Solomon Badesch, one of the lawyers representing Abraham Hagler of New York City, half walk ed, and was half carried into the Su- perior court room today suffering from a foot infection. where Judge Frank D. Haines was prepared to hear the last with esSes and the argu- ments in the case, now in its fifth week in Superior court.
 More than $20.0O0 is involved in the suit. Hagler claims he lost a valuable franchise in New York be- cause Packard buses were not deliv- cred in time, whereas the local gar age company claims that Hagler fail- ed in his payments for buses, as per contract. The condition of Badesch, who gamelg tried to 20 on, was so noticeaibly weak, that the court de- cided to make the effort to hear all remaining testimony this morning, after which the case will be adjourn ed until next Tuesday.
 Judge Haines announced that the regular order of the remaining call endar would be followed.

 Scott has been on the Job at the North avenue jail for 20 years. He has been beloved by many unfortu- mates who have come to the institu- tion since he has been there, and he was named with the Sheriff on the Thanksgiving petition of apprecia- ton, presented to the Sheriff by the prisoners.

FRANCE THINKS GERMANY GAN
 PAY HER DEBTS

Paris, Nov. 29-The French govern ment, it was made plain today, is strongly opposed to the proposed moratorium for Germany's debts to the Allies, the movement for which is understood here to be gaining great strength in British official circles.
 The French view is that Germany is potentially quite capable of meeting her reparation payments and will do so unless given encouragement from allied sources to resist payment.
 While agreeing that Germany's finances are in a critical condition, French officials indicate that their be- ief that a readjustment can be effected without resorting to such a radical move a moratorium.

 THE RIGHT OF MOTHERHOOD.
 I have been married for nearly two years and never yet any sign of chill dren. long for the right of Motherhood" and my husband too is very fond of children, and being child less somewhat mars our happiness. My husband is 2S and I am 21 and when I was first married I did not want a baby right away, so I took. That is all I have done. My mother had five children, my sisters have one and two respectively. and my broth CTS wife has one. My mother-in- law had four. Could what I have donN been the cause? I shall be very much obliged if you would give me any infoTuna tiion on the subject for do so want a baby. We are both British born subjects, also may add I smoke cigarettes a good deal. Is this bad for me?
 Answer-Here appears to be a case of Esau losing his birthright for a mess of pottaEe. Nor do I see that smoking cigarettes can help much to redeem a right which you may have forfeited. You should retain and consult 8 good family doctor.

 One of his greatest enjoyments is 60 sit in the garden and watch the aeroplanea flying overhead.
 'I have become quite an expert fiji aeroplanes," he said. ''My sight is so good that I am able to distinguish the difference between the various kinds.
 "I have only lost one tooth, and the doctor says that chewing tobacco has preserved my teeth, which are as firm as 8 rock" said the old man proudly,

BEAUTY PARL0RS
 FOR MEN
This is the Latest Fad in Gotham, Where Secrets
 of Vanity Box Are No Longer for Milady Alone.

New York, Oct. 29-Beauty par 1ors for meni
 Milady no longer has @ monopoly upon the secrets of the cosmetic, the eyebrow pencil and the vanity box.
 By sample process of evolution the barber shop has become the rival of the best-equipped feminine beauty parlors. A few years ago the barber shop was the Saturday night rendez- vous of congenial souls seeking a haircut and shave" the gossip of the barber with the double chin, both of which were perpetual1y engaged in conversation: a glimpse at the Police Gazette and the exchange of gossip with other congenial souls.
 Not so today. The 'barber," as we once knew him, has joined the dodos the dinosaur and other extinct species, Here today he is an artist, or, as he prefers to call himself, a "tonsorial specialist" at whose hand Is every conceivable device of electricity, sani- disdains to lend his talent to the 'thair- cut and shave' customer. but will exert himself to effect a magical change in those needing 1t and willing to pay the price.
 Double chfns are ironed out. wrinkles eradicated, blush is made to grow where but whiskers f1ourished before, hollow cheeks are made full
 
 tale blue rings of dissipation are re- vamped, and the customer laughs at Ponce de Leon and his fabled foun- tain of youth. Even sunken chests are given electric treatnerts guaranteed to make the taker rival opponents of of the Full Shirt Front.
 Lillian Russell herself would turn green with envy could she see the changes wrought upon the form and features of the up-to-the-minute Broadwayite. He enters the barber shop with a weeks growth of alfalfa depending from his jowls, blue-ringed eyes and a sagging jaw-his whole appearance eloquent of his pathetic disillusionment and an air of having had his fill of the worlds flesh pots,
 Emerging from this modern won der factory, he has undergone a trans formation calculated to defeat your best efforts to identify him as the burned-out persons who entered the shop but an hour ago. He has a new and athletic swagger; there Is the flash of determination in his eyes that might be challenge to the world to link him with the Jagged Broadwayite. his cheeks are tinged with a healthy looking pinkness, and the droop in hia jaw has been replaced by a firmnesa comparable to Jeffriea or Jack Dempsey. r.-..--'s--- -.. .-. ...-..
