selves and for the mothers.
 In the diet of the prospective mother. the growth needs for the nor nal development of the baby and the needs for the maintenance of her own health must be considered.
 If the materials for the maintenance for the health of the mother are fur nished in the diet, the baby will also be supplied the materials for growth. For we have found that the same diet which is conducive to the best health of the adult, is conducive to the best growth in the child.
 If the materials for the growth of the baby are lacking in the food of the mother, they will be drawn from the mothers body. The reason that
 many prospective mothers have soft
 ening of the teeth and dental cares,
 is due to the fact that her diet is de-
 ficient in the calcium and phosphor-
 ous necessary for the development of
 the bone and teeth formation of the
 baby, and so these have been drawn
 from the mothers own bones and teeth.
 A diet very deficient in the calcium and phosphorous elements would eventually affect the baby. as we'll as the mother.
 Beginning with the fifth month of pregnancy, growth or the baby is very rapid. but the actual amount of building material IS not very large. | An increase of one-ffth. or 20 per | cent, of the mothers usual daily 1 supply should amply cover the needs | of the baby. Less than this should | be allowed if the mother is overfat l or has lessened her activities marked l ly.
 i~~ A woman of sedentary habits ordi- narily requires from 2000 to 2200 C's per day. This increase, then. would mean that she sh ould have from 2400 l to 27 C's per day during the later half | of the pregnancy.

DIET IN PREGNANCY.

That diet is of the greatest inn portance throughout life is fact which cannot be refuted.
 There are two periods in life, how ever, in which the importance of the diet must be given special emphasis. Those periods are during childhood the growth period; and during preg- growth period.
 The saying that a pregnant woman must eat for two is literally true. However, because she must eat for two and that fact is usually emphasiz-
 ed to her. the tendency has been for
 her to overeat at this period. In stead of eating for two, she has eaten for three or more and, in consequence,
 may have grown very fat or may have brought on a toxemia-a poisoning both of herself and her baby. The same foods that fatten the i mother will fatten the baby. This Is extremely undesirable. It makes the | labor very much more difficult ill two ways. The fat in the mother mar rows the birth passage and the fat on 1 the baby enlarges the baby. This | makes two factors for difficult deliv- 1 cry.
 l Now, while a mother must eat TOT | two, it must be remembered that this l second b1Ie really QOeS not begin IC
 need any more nourishment than can ordinarily be furnished by the mother | in her usual diet, until the last four or five months of pregnancy. The size or stature of a baby is de-
 termined by heredity. but the amount of fat on the baby can be, to great
 extent, controlled by the mother. l It used to be considered a cause o1 rejoicing to report the birth of g, ten pound baby. but it is not considered l so any longer. Seven to seven an6 1 c half pounds is good, husky weight | for any baby to start out with. I they seem a little under fat for theil l size, they can rapidly gain enough fat under the right conditions; and i l is much better for them to gain ia after they are born, both for them

do not wonder that your friends ob- ject because you are now packing your hair into a thick net.
 Lulu: - Since you are almost 20 pounds underweight. m addition to having skin full of pimpIes, it is evident that you are not assimilating all of the food you are taking. Often when people are affected as you are. they gain in weight through abstain ing from rich food and live sim pie diet. This gives the system a chance to make a complete new start and the digestion improves so the body takes weight.
 S.. s. S.:-Cocoa butter should never be used on the face as it is such heavy oil; also it is possible that some of it will remain on the skin to at tract soil. It is this combination of oil and dirt which will cause black heads and induce hair to grow. Cocoa butter is very nourishing, however, and can be used on any other part of the body.
 A nourishing cream made from fine oils is what you should use for the face and throat. Daily treatment with such a cream, and an occa sonaI use of an astringent. should rid you of these fine lines that are just ap- bearing.

 S. G. B.:-It would take a long time to change the shape of the nose by means Of a machenical devise. You would also lose many hours of needed rest, as these contriyances are usually worn all night.
 Kitty Kat:-The life1ess appearance of your skin is likely due to a run down state. You are perhaps in need of more oxygen, or a, tonic to enrich the blood. If you are about to have vacaton the rest will build you up. If you are not vacationing, indulge yourself In outings as often as possi- ble. Continue to use the cream as such a skin needs it every day. Dash cold water over the face and throat to close the pores after each cleans ing. Do this regardless or whether cream or soap and warm water has been used.
 Parisienne:- There is nothing but a dye that will tint your hair dark brown unless it is walnut juice. If you use the henna merely as a sham poo the natural shade of your hair will remain as it is, except for the least tinge. The reason for your hair taking on this reddish color is be- cause you are applying he hot henna paste to it for an unusually long time. Three minutes it sufficient when one wants to retain ones own shade and mesely tint the grey strands so they will not be so noticea- ble.

Industrial Success
 Laid To Treatment
 of Employees Fairly

Boston, Aug. 23-Survey commit tees of the Unitarian Laymen's S League, investigating business con cerns in 28 states and in Canada in which industrial harmony prevails and conflict is unknown, have com . pleted their reports of $50 surveys, covering both the very largest indus tries and also many which though small are representative, and the 'one outstanding fact which exists in every single case" was announced by the League follows:
 "The managers have acted upon their consciousness that all who work in their organizations are fellow human beings-brothers-a the spirit of the managers is also the spirit of the great majority of the work CTS.
 "The Unitarian Laymen's League is not equipped to make a complete can vass of all the concerns in the United States and Canada in which indus trial harmony prevails, but certainly the fact that, in every case reported, success in business and industrial har- mony have gone hand in hand with actio1. based upon the principles of mans brotherhood with man, is a straw which probably indicates the direction of the wind.
 These surveys were authorized by the annual convention of the Laymen's q League, held in September, 1921, 1t Narrangs nsett Pier, R. l., to which 166 of the Leagues PAP chapters sent delegates. The report of the commit tee in charge will be submitted at the |1e22 convention, to be held at New London, Conn.,, September 8-9-10. The 30 chapters which have been or ganized since the 1921 convention will be asked to make surveys before the final report with conclusions and is made.
 Other League and chapter prob Iems and programs will be discussed without benefit of clergy" At these annual conventions of Unitarian lay men the only minister present comes tn nreach the convention sermon.
