ABSCESS IN THE EAR

In this trouble (which doctors call acute suppurative otitis media) there is great pain in and around the ear, which lessens when the ear drum is burst through; high fever, ringing in the ears, deafness Casually only par tiaD and, after the perforation of the drum. discharge of pus from the ear. Dry heat alleviates the pain. Warm water may be syringed in the ear, but don't put in anything else. If the n ose is filled with tough secre- tions, spray it with salt and warm water (3a teaspoonful to the tum- blerful.
 If the pain kepes up over six hours in a child. or 12 hours in an adult, the doctor must positively be called to puncture the drum, under ether. Smear the parts about the ear with vaseline to avoid chapping; and gently mop off the discharge as 1t appears. Under such treatment the ear usually returns to normal in two or three weeks.

 You look upon choosing a hus- band as you would selecting the color for a dress. Marriage, my dear girl, should result from love. l am very sure from your letter that you do not know the meaning of love. Until you do, remain single.
 Dear Mrs. Thompson: am a good-1ooking girl of 22 and I have been going with a fellow for the last year. He seems devoted to me. but occasionally he goes to see a beauty parlor expert. I tried to keep him away from her, but it was useless. Must I give him up?
 HOPELESS.
 Everything depends upon the cir cumstances of the case. If you are engaged and the young man goes to see the beauty parlor expert, you have every reason to give him up. But if you are not engaged and if she is of good character, you have no right to object. Be charitable in your esti- mate of the girl and do not jump at conclusions merely because she is in a beauty parlor.
 Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am go- ing with a very nice young man. We have been going together for two years. About a week ago he thought he saw another girl with my engagement ring on and he got very angry and wouldn't even speak I told him he was mistaken and he seemed all right but he still seems hurt toward me. What would you advise me to do?

''Breads,'' Cakes,
 Desserts" ct cetera. Then buy a package of white. lined file cards such as are used in offices and either write or paste your recipes upon them. Your recipe file will not be complete without the following:

ANSWERED LETTERS

Simplex:-With brown eyes, a clear skin and auburn hair, you have an advantage over other types. You will be distinctive in all shades of green and brown, especially those which combines yellow or gold in the blend ing. as these will bring out the life which is in this shade of hair. Cream color is also good.
 Anna C.:-There is no way to turn hair white except to wait for nature to do it. Since you are anxious to have silvery white hair instead of the other, stop experimenting with the shade by using the bleaches When shampooing use only a fine white soap and add a little blueing to the last rinse. To have become almost white at 80 should indicate that the chang ing process is going along rapidly, in which case you will soon have the shade you want.
 Dimp1es:-The white spots on the nails come from poor circulation They are Hmey deposits that will bleach off by applying a paste made from equal parts of pitch and myrrh
 Harry N.:-As long as you are suf- fering from catarrh and asthma you canont be robust. Your Hfeless skin Is the result or your physical cOndi- ton, so the first thing is to be cured and you will find color coming into your skin again. During the period of taking yeast it is we'll to take, at least three cakes a day.
 AnXious:-The only way to remove tartar from the teeth is having it done by a good tentist. This work is done much more carefully now than it was some years back. The dentist will also prescribe for that condition of your gums.

The Welcome Iceman

When the iceman comes I could just take and eat the whole piece till it is finished. My husband says it is only a whim but my friends think I am going crazy. won't want to go anywhere but just sit and eat ice. Apparently it does me no harm.

Would you repeat the pre- scrption that appeared in the paper ahcct year ago to cure smoking I cut it out but someone borrowed 1t and I never got it back Your ad- vice will be most thankfully received and valued.
 Answer-Of course your husband must know better than your friends do No doubt you had a fever or some hem orrhage when the doctor or dered the cracked ice. Better cut it out now.

often stop this tendency to excessive precipitation. If this does not do 1t, consult the doctor as this unusual ac- tivity of the skin in cold weather is apt to be weak ening. You will be able to wear kid gloves if you first powder the hands.
 Slim, E M.:-To get rid Of those lines around the mouth and the sag gfnG muscles, build up all the tissues of the face and throat by gently working into the pores with the fin ger tips all the cream that can be absorbed. This should be done daily and followed by dash of cold water over the throat and face or use a small piece of ice in Q sheer cloth to close tho pores. Several times dur ing the week use an astringent and let it stay on the face and throat, at least, 20 minutes.

I consented to marriage if he would live here with me, but he will not do it. I told him that I would never he happy if I left my mother. He said he would make me happy if I married him and that I would be sorry if I didn't. He is a travel ing man and he is to take trip to England soon and he wants me to accompany him and make 1t our honeymoon. I didn't know what to do. My mother says I should go and a neighbor woman will take her and care for her, but I am afraid some thing vii happen to her while I am gone. PUZZLED
 Your mother loves you more than the man does. Hers is an unsedsh love and for the sake of your hap pines she tells you to go and leave her in the hands of some one else. She only thinks of you and forgets herself entirely so that she will not stand in your way.
 The man probably loves you in his way, put it is a small way be- cause he will not support you in your desire to do the right thing.
 If you never marry, you will feel that your life has been blighted and that you have been cheated. But if you do marry a man who shows so little heart am afraid you will regret your decision bitterly and will be haunted with the thought of your neglected duty.

Belgian women cannot complain that their sex is discriminated against in the matter of receiving honors. for just recently a woman was awarded one of the highest honors in the country. She was elected a mem Der of the Belgian Academy. Madame la Comtesse de Noailles is the wom- an who has received this honor and she has the additional distinction of being the first woman member of the Belgian Academy.
 Women In Russia
 Mime. Alexandra Kollanty, one of the leaders of the Russian feminist movement, charges in an article she has written in the ''Pravda" that petty bourgeoise narrowness and superstition are preventing wom- en having the voice they merit in the Soviet government.
 She says that no woman was a voting delegate at the Communist conference preceding the ninth all- Russia Soviet congress held at Mos- COW, and that only "A women were dnc1uded among the 2,00O voters at the congress, despite the fact that 50 per cent. of Russian voters are women.
 She alleges that women are very active in politics. but less than three per cent. of the membership of town Soviets is represented by women, and in the village Soviets they have only two-tenths of one per cent of the memIb bership.
 Furthermore, she states there are only five women members in the cen tra1 executive committee of 800 which is Russia's chief governing body.

in Georgia last summer even when no

turn was shot by white mob. He
was taken to hospital where he died
shortly after. About midnight the
white mob went to the hospital to
get the wounded colored man and
lynch him. Exasperated at finding
that he was dead, the mob broke into
the dead room, got the corpse, car

burned it to Grip. The charred re-
