Eating for a Nice Skin.

The effect of diet on the skin has
only recently been Investigated. Com
mon knowledge, however, has always
recognized that disease affected the
appearance of the skin. He looks
| like a sick man-"his skin is so
| white" or maybe it's his skin Is SO
sallow." A jaundiced person has yell
low skin. A tuberculouS patent mas
transparent-looking skin.
AS knowledge has been gained OF
what takes place in the bodily
organs. in sickness and in health,
the effect on the skin of the Internal
changes has been noted.
Age affects the texture of the skin.
But on old or young skin health puts
its mark We know that clean SKIN
is an asset. We also know that
external cleanliness alone will not
insure unblemished skin. Muddy
looking skin, pimples. blotchy-iooklng
skin are nearly always the result
of wrong diet.
knew a lady whose only symp.
tom of Indigestion was q reddeneo
and roughened skin. She went to
skin specialist. The first thing he
did was to put her on strict died.
Then he gave her lotion to soothe
the skin and tone down the fieryness.
In time her skin was fresh ana
smooth To this day, however, If
she INDUCES freely in the forbid
den foods her skin begins to red
den up.
A box of chocolates has given
many girl few pimples. The
question then presents itself. whether
it is better to please the palate and
blotch the skin or save the SKIN
and subdue the appetite. Chocolate
creams are a very concentrated food.
An excess will surely cause indiges,
ton. And most always the skin Will
be affected Alcohol, coffee, tea
and highly spiced foods are likely
to inf1ame the skin.
If young girls would save the
money that goes for ice cream sodas
and sundaes and buy fruit with it
they would be buying beauty treat
ments. Fruits and vegetables are
necessary internal cleansing agents.
A balanced. varied diet is the one
best suited to practically every one.
Correct diet means health. Heaith

least is smooth, clear, fresh-looking
skin. A generous amount of drink

Nutrition NUGGETS.

Although food for young baby
who is just beginning to eat solid
food must keep within certain
rigid lines, 1t is possible even here
to get into a rut. For example.
when the time comes for fruit juice
and scraped fruit pulp there is quite
a list to choose from. Orange juice
is always a standby. but fresh grated
apple pulp or apple juice. prune juice.
tomato juice and pineapple juice are
some of the fruits that may be added
to the list. The quantity given and
age at which these fruit juices are
proper must be decided by the in
dividual who is taking care of each
child.
Among the numerous changes
which developing research have
made in diet habits none is more
striking than that which concerns
the giving of eggs. In the old days
the white of egg. probably because
of it's color, was thought to be more
delicate than the yolk. Then came
the time when it was shown that the
white, being pure albumen, was more
strengthening. Finally comes our
modern research to tell us that while
beaten white of egg is more deli
cate" in appearance than the yolk. in
the process of digestion it is actually
more difficult. In other words. to
digest white of egg. the individual
must have fairly mature digestion
powers. Nor is this all. We are now
informed that the yolk is actually
higher in food value because of the
mineral salts it contains and the
vitamins.
The bodybuilding material con-
tanned in both fruits and nuts has
been found to be in the main very
completely digestive. This does not
mean that one can be careless III
serving them. Unless nut meats. for
example. are pulverized before serv-
ing or following this. mastiCated very
thoroughly. they may cause cOnsid
cradle trouble. Similarly, the tough
skins of fruits must be washed tu
avoid any infection and in many
cases stewed thoroughly to avoid
irritation of the stomach lining.

as lettuce will wilt often even If
placed right on ice. 1t is the exclu-
sion of air from celery and lettuce
that keeps them firm and crisp. The
best treatment after cutting the tops
from celery is to wrap it in paper
while moist, then place in bucket
or large can with a. tight-fitting
top. 1t will then remain crisp and
firm for several days. If lettuce or
celery is dry when purchased it should
be sprinkled with a little water be-
fore being put in the container.

Speed Uu Tax Measure

Now that the World Court issue is settled, the
senate should lose time in ratifying the tax re-
duction measure. Mr.. Average Voter is in
terested in tax reduction than he is in world politics
and if he had any say he would have had his rep
rcsentatves in the senate tackle tax reduction be-
fore the World Court protocol.
The last day for filing tax returns under the
present law is March 18TH Opponents of the tax
measure seeking to delay the date required for
filing returns a month so as to give more time to
tamper with the tax reduction bill that has passed
the house with little opposition.
1t is hoped that the measure can be rushed
through at least by February 18th. Even if the
matter is delayed until March LIST, the government
printing office is prepared to furnish blanks in time
for filing returns by March 18th. This however
els short notice and will mean many improper re-
ports and much unnecessary work for the revenue
officials
The senate and house are not far apart en- the
material issues Of tax reductions. If reduction
is given the public substantial as outlined in the
house bill, taxpayers will be satisfied Delay will
cost the taxpayer than any additional relief
proposed by small group of insurgents Business
men must know what their tax bill is going t. be

Editorial Comment
A Strong Case For the Boy Scouts
Duluth Herald)

Judge Arnold Of the Chicago Juvenile court pre-
sents about as strong argument for supporting
the Boy Scout movement anybody has produced
He says that he has dealt in court with thirty
five thousand boys, and that only ten of them were
Boy Scouts.
That will net surprise those who are familia,
with what the Boy Scout movement is trying to do
Indeed the only thing about it that will surprise
them is that even ten out CT thrty-fivc thousand
were Boy Scouts
The boys that come before juvenile court as a
rule are boys that have got into trouble that ran
all the way from rather serious mischief to crime
good many of these boys-llearly all of them. in
deed-got into this trouble because their bovisb
energy had not been directed into right activities
Boy Scouts do not often get into juvenile courts
because they are being taught more interesting
things to do than the things that get boys into
trouble.

Needed Radio Legislation

The bill introduced by Representative White Of
Maine, for Federal regulation of radio commune

substantially such IA measure as the recent radio
conference recommended. 1t provides the control

radio industry.
The congestion in broadcasting is Secretary
Hooveys reason for urging this legislation Au-

stories, side by side.
One story told about the death and burial Of Ping

lived in tenement in New York's slums.
Both were II years old. The dog, owned by Il

The girl had lived life of poverty. The dog got
an elaborate funeral and a costly grave-total ex-
pense, $500. The girl got the cheapest of fu-
