People are making investigations

PERSONAL HEALTH SERVICE
By WILLIAM BRADY, M. D.
Don't Aggravate Germs.
Noted Physician and Authoy.

A few who believe all they read
still speak Of "the germ theory" in
a facetious way as though to imply
that the causation of disease by
germs were still debatable. One gen.
orally finds these persons dabbling
with some kind of plausible treat
ment for something or other. the ap-
peal of the treatment being based
upon pseudo-scientifc f1apdoodle which
serves 10 conceal the absurdity
of the thing. Thus many tons Of
pleasantly scented mud are sold to
the public annually on the strength
Of T. birf Of near-scientific ''osmosls, -
which from it's mystery makes i'm
preston on the mind of the poorly
educated physician and the prescrib-
ing nurse.
Be it boil or a carbuncle, or an
infected wound or any threatened
gathering" the most grateful as
sistance one can render the germs
consists of the application of a nice
warm faXseed meal poultice, or any
other meal poultice. If the aim is
to encourage rapid multiplication of
the germs responsible for the trouble
and aid their spread to nearby fresh
fields where they can start new boils,
carbuncles or testers, then the thing
to do is apply a big warm, moist
poultice of faxseed meal, bread
crumbs, corn meal. or whatever other
germs will rise up and call you
blessed
If the aim is to relieve pain or dis
comfort from boil, carbuncle, infect
ed wound or threatened gathering,

purpose that can be served by any

holiday wear is silk moire. One
shop is displaying a window full Of
moire frocks which, although they
are not as soft and graceful as those
of crepe, offer a welcome substitute
for the ever-popular taffeta. The
afternoon model sketched Is of moire
in shade of Harding blue, and its
lines make 1t really suitable only for
the youthful figure. The bodice has
short set-in sleeves, finished with
points, and is opened at the front to
disclose a dainty gilet OF cream-col-
ored lace alternated with gathered
bands of georGette. The skirt, which
is pointed at the hem, flares decided
ly and the stiffness of the material
renders wiring or a hoop insertion
unnecessary. The wide girdle. which
is crushed in set folds, circles the
waist just above the hips and ties in
a large butterfly bow at the back.
The hat pictured is an unusually
attractive model in black lisere straw,
with an effective contrasted trim
ming added in the form of delicate
white camelias The shape is small
and it fits snugly around the coiffure.

dropping points at each side. The
flower garlands outline the narrow
turned-up brim and trace their way
around the points, SO that there Is an
unbroken flower trail circling the
chapeau. A lacing of white ribbons
appears between each point to add
further touch of white contrast to the
solid black surface of the crown.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.

The Doctors Lowbrow.
know a doctor who has q large
family of children and all of them
have low foreheads. yet they are ex-
ceptionally bright and smart in
school. I also know other persons
with low brows who are quite INTEL
ligent. I would thank you for en-
lightenrent in regard to this.-(Mrs.
L. B.)
Answer.-The expression slow
brow is rather q fgurative epithet.
Or course. the height or breadth Of
the forehead has practically no rela-
tion to mental capacity.
Scrofula and Tuberculosis,
What causes scrofula. and is it
likely to run into tuberculosis Will
cod liver oil in time cure it?-Mrs. c.
]. NJ
Answer.-Scrofula is an old-fash-
ioned name for tuberculosis of the
lymph nodes or "kernels" of the neck
and sometimes Of the skin. Cod liver
oil is very useful as a remedy in
many cases Of tuberculosis in chill
dren.
Here's . Rum One:
am troubled with a red nose
which shows up when take a bottle
or two OF beer or smoke several
cigars. In anti-prohibition days I
drank great deal Of pure beer and
smoked heavily, but had no red nose.
If I smoke or drink nothing for a
week or more this condition seems to
leave me. but it comes right back
after I indulge in few cigars or a
few drinks. Is it my stomach? ?
Smoking makes me nervous, but /
smoke anyway. as fellow has got
to do something. I also drink four
cups of coffe and two or three Guns
of tea every day.-(F. ". NJ
Answer.-Some fellows are great
funeral attendants, and in a pinch
they arrange one Of their own rather
than have no place to 60 or no amuse-
ment. print your query merely to
prove that now and then red nose
really does depend on intemperance.
When a man arrives at point where he
smokes merely because he hasn't
anything to occupy his mind he is in
grave danger. 1t is wrong to abuse
the blessed weed that way.

Miss Gladys is back from college
with an A. B. tackled on her name and
the wisdom of the ages tucked in her
beauty case And Gladys IS working
overtime telling folks where they can
head in. There's nav, for instance.
Maw's sort of human parsnip.
Grubby and ordinary. filled with help
fulness and kindness to the human
race, but getting no more social
vegetable. Nav did wonders to send
Gladys through college. Went around
almost in rags, did without her pititul
little pleasures, so her girl could
have chance. And now Gladys is
analyzing mother love for NAV.
There's really no such thing as un-
selhshness." says Gladys. "Mothers
don't really sacrifice for their chill
dren. They act that way because it
gives them pleasure. There's selfish
ness and self-interest back of all hu
man love. Love itself is a selfish in
stinct"
Nav listens and the tears blur her
faded old eyes. She's no hand for
arguing, is NAV. but somehow she
thinks that Gladys doesn't under
stand. Gladys doesn't. She knows q
few scraps of things out Of books. but
she has learned nothing from human
hearts where the real wisdom of the
world is kept It's quite easy to take
human motives apart and find the
carthiness within them. but while you
are doing it the essential truth will
escape.
What If maws devotion and sacri-
fee do spring from the same racial
instinct that makes a tigress protect
her young? Suppose it is born in her
and functions with every pulse of her
heart? Does that make that instinct
and its demonstration any less beau
tiful or miraculous? You can put your
finger on it-perhaps-but can you
explain it? And since you can't ex-
plain 1t. hadn't you better hold your
breath with ave.
There is self-interest behind every
human act-just as there is dirt be-
meath every lily. Does that make the
lily's bloom less beautiful or the dirt
less valuable? Poets have stomach
aches and colds in their heads. VIII
you for that reason refuse to read
paradise Lost or "Gunga DIM" or
course we do heroic and lovely things
! because something within US wants
to do them. But isn't it flaming
wonder that we're made so we want
to do them?

The street frock sketched is a stun
ming creation of brilliant red flannel
enhanced with white wool embroid-
cry. 1t is made from one straight
piece of material, with the waistline
defined only by a slender belt of soft
red kid. The neck. which is square.
has collar Of white flannel embroid-
cred in red. reversing the effect of
the frock itself, and at the front it
is slashed down to reveal a vestee of
white. The sleeves are elbow length
and bell-shaped and a border of
white stitching forms their only orna-
mentation.
The skirt falls so that there are
two deep folds. one at each side.
which almost give the appearance OF
separate panels. since they extend
slightly below the hemline at the
front and back. Embroidery in the
form of large squares Joined by
straight lines of wool stitching gives
the effective finishing touch to this
really unusual frock. A tailored
sport hat might be worn with it, if
one desired to accentuate it's severe
lines. but a softer model tipped with
ostrich or aigrette would give a
touch Of contrast which might be
more pleasing. Red and white sport
pumps would of course be the thing
in footwear. with red hose clocked
in white as a complement.
