 Marriage Separation

New York, Aug. 70 R,-Rudoiph Valentino, original sheik of the screen. and his second wife, Winfield De Wolfe Huinut Valentino, dancer and daughter of perfume manu- facturer, have agreed to separate.
 The wreck of one of Hollywood's dearest romances was announced early today by George Eliman, man. ager for Mrs. Valentino, but he em- phHsized that tine rocks were nicely cushioned.
 Int separation Is entirely friendly, MT. Ellman said, there being no idea of divorce no agreement for ali- mony. but merely the desire of two artists to pursue their own talents in different direction. He added, how ever. that he did not see how it was possible for either of them to run home after the publicity which is destined to be given the announce ment.
 Both will continue In motion pic ture work, Mrs. Valentino as pro ducer and he as a star for United Artists. Mrs. Valentine came to New York on business last Monday. The separation agreement was signed in the palatlal Valentino homo on Whitney Heights, Hollywood, the preceding Tuesday. MT. Ellman de- scribed the meeting as follows:
 You know, dear, I have my work, just as you have yours. Mrs. Valen- tino said.
 "Yes," he replied, land I wish you all the success in the world in your ventures"
 T love Rudolph and always will Mir. EFlman said Winifred told him, "but I will never return to him"
 The whole case Is simply one of two artistic temperaments seeking the freedom that each finds neces- sary of life's work" Mir. Ellman con tinued.
 When they happen to meet, they will have breakfast, luncheon and dinner together much as usual. The only thing is that they have agreed rot live together. There is no our rel. There is no prospect of one"

Your Health How to Keep It.
 Causes of Illness
By DIR. II. H CIIMM1NE

By DIR. Fl. B. CUMMING Surgeon General, United stntes
 Public Health Service
 Patients who suffer from any type of hay fever may obtain relief from their symptoms by spending the period during which they usually suffer in locality where the plant or plants whose pollen affects them do not grow.
 For example, those whu suffer from the rag weed or fall type uf hay fever obtain relief on the Paci- tic coast, in northern New Hamp- shire, on the European continent, or in various mountain resorts which are free from rag weed.
 Since most patients cannot change their residence each year for ap- proximately two months out of the 12, they must seek relief by uther means.
 During the hay fever season con- siderable relief may be obtained if simple precautions are followed. Strenuous exercise such as tennis and baseball should be avoided as unusual exertion induces vigorous breathing and correspondingly in- creases the dose of pollen inhaled.
 The sleeping room should be kept closed during the day to exclude as much of the pollen-laden air as pos- sible. Upon retiring the windows should be opened, since the damp ness of the evening air and the lessened breeze will allow but a relatively small amount of pollen to gain access to the seeping room. Hay fever patients who suffer from distressing eye symptoms may find relief by wearing amber glasses.
 During the past nine or ten years medical prophylaxis for hay fever has been tried with increasing suc- cess. Successful attempts have been viduas by injections with extracts of the pollens to which they are sensi- tive.
 This treatment brings about g desensitization of the patient, or in other words, it accustoms him to a considerable dose of pollen. At the present time 1t may be said that a large majority of patients 50 treated are benefited and that consider able number experience varying de- grees of relief.
 It happns also, fortunately, that 1 the asthma which frequently ap- pears in the course of the hay fever and, which Is most dreaded by the patient, is most regularly benefited q by these injections.
 It is important that those who suffer from hay fever understand that they should present themselves to their physicians for medical prophylactic treatment about three months before their symptoms usu- ally begin This early precaution is necessary as. the series of injections |
 extends over 8 period of about two months and should be completed if possible not less than two weeks be- fore the time when symptoms usu' ally appear, This treatment s harm less in the hands of a competen' physician end does not cause the pa. tent to lose time from his 'egual occupation.
 It sometimes happens, of course that immediate and transient symp' toms of hay fever, asthma or hives follow an injection, but these symp' toms are, as general rule. very transient in character and persist but a short time.
 This method of prophylactic treat, ment offers the most hopeful method of relief known to the medical pro, fession at the present time.

Easy to Dc norcsf0te

The problem of the revolution Of q
wheel may be explained by the fact
that the top is moving forward in the
direction in which the vehicle is pro-
crossing, while the bottom is moving
backward or in an opposite direction.
To demonstrate this in a practical way,
take CON- mark points at the top and
bottom as A and B. Make mark at
the starting point directly beneath a
and B upon whatever surface the coin
is to be rolled. Roll the coin forward
a quarter revolution. It will be seen
that A moves upon a radius equal to
the diameter of the circle and by ac-
tual measurement A has moved a
greater distance and described a
greater curve than B.

Expert Repairing

fact that some of the experts in this
work can repair the worst rents In
tweeds or stuffs without leaving q

remarkable feat in this direction
stands to the credit of the Gobelin
tapestry factory in Paris.
Some years ago the priceless tapes
try representing the entry of Louis
XIV into Dunkirk was stolen, and
when recovered had been cut into a
dozen pieces. This great length of en-
broidery has been repaired so per
fectly that even the most careful ex-
