Mrs. Y. G.. writes: MY baby Is one
year old and shows no signs of teeth
ing. Physicians find no cause for this.
Has any such case ever been brought
to your attention."
Answer. There is always cause
for late teething. and this cause is to
be found without fail in improper
,, nutrition both during the prenatal
period of the child and the first years
feeding. Children afflicted with rickets
frequently show delayed dentition.
The cure lies in correcting the diet
and giving cod liver oil in addition.

Mouth Wrinkles.

There are various systems of mas
sage. but the only really necessary
thing to remember is that every
massage motion fust lift up the sag
ging muscles causing the wrinkles.
So il you are in danger of mouth
wrinkles massage across them. and
with every stroke of the fingers raise
the skin. that Is, push 1t gently up
ward. 1t Is better to take the hands
away from the face at the end of
each stroke. for you might uncon-
sciously press downwards.
The easiest way is to use the tips
of the four fingers of each hand, TO
work the cream you massage with
well into the skin. Or use your two
thumbs az a pivot. placing them
under the chin. and then use the fiat
part of the four fingers, or rather the
eight fingers. since you are using
both hands to work over the skin.
This is a highly recommended way.
because the fingers are in such a po-
sition that they must press upwards
on the skin in exactly the right way;
at least. so say those whose profess
sion is massage.
Another method is to draw the lips
tightly together and to blow. as
though you were blowing out a can
die. With the mouth held so. tap
the skin all over with the tips of the
fingers. having first, of course. ap-
piled thick layer of massage cream.
And still another method Is to wash

Vitamines.

a few weeks ago the papers her.
rlded the news that under the direc-
ION of S. G. Millimot of Cambridge
University, London, Vitamine D had
been discovered. This is the fourth
OF these wonderful little essentials
which science has captured.
The peel of oranges. lemons and
kindred fruits is rich in this new vita

factor in ricketts," reads the dispatch

vita" life.
The knowledge that we have about
vitamines was gained in recent years:
The condition of the Japanese army
fed on polished rice became very
grave as beri-beri was prevalent.
Scientists began to experiment with
the food to find the trouble. The dis
ease was traced to the absence of
certain elements in-the polished rice.
They discovered that by feeding the
men on an extract from the outer
coating of rice, which heretofore had
been discarded in the polishing proc
ess, their health became normal.
Further experiment showed that these
minerals were present in the outer
coatings Of other grains--wheat, corn,
rye.
The Investigators also found that
certain vital elements were needed In
food, but they could not see these ele-
ments. They knew by experiment
that they were present in certain foods
and were missing in others. They
knew they were essential to health.
Experiments on animals proved that
without these elements, even if the
food were all protein Tor body build
fng), the animals died. 1t was proved
that without these elements even a
diet combined of bodybuilding foods,
fats and carbohydrates did not nour-
ish the body so well.
Two American scientists, Funk and
McCollum. were the first to give these
discoveries to the world. They sue
ceeded in isolating these substances.
They were called vitamines, and later
specified as Fat Soluble A found in
milk, butter, cheese, the yolks of eggs,

his mother with them. and why had

| any harm In Jeans taking a drive
with an old friend, he had not for
gotten the incident. He had remem-
bered 1t last night. and swift sus.
picion had leaped no in him. To be
sure, he had been ashamed of him
self later. In the light of clearer
reasoning. the idea that Jean might
ever be interested in any one else
wos ridiculous. But for all that he
had been jealous and suspicious at
the time. and if anything happened
IN the Iuture-anything that cOul0

He YVES eager for Jean and his
mother to get along amica bly,. and
because Mrs. Morgan was careful not
TO make any definite complaints, but
suggested things by innuendo. he
had come to the conclusion that Jean
was not so thoughtful as she might'
be. 1t was this that prompted him
to ask her while she was still in his
arms how things had gone that day.
About as usual" Jean returned
evasively. She did not say that Mrs.
Morgan had spoken 10 her only
when 1t was absolutely necessary. al
though she had gone out of her way
TO be pleasant. but her answer did
not satisfy Con.
Everything is all right between
you two. isn't it"" he persisted.
"Of course" Jean said quickly. She
knew that what he really wanted
was to have her sink her pride and
apologize to his mother. but that he
hesitated about referring to 1t again.
Not even for Con would she do that.
She couldn't; II was too unfair.

One Mother Says:
Last Memorial day we motored
through several towns and were
amazed to see how few flags were
hung from private homes, even in
places where parades we're in prog
ress. Every home ought to have a
good sized flag which should be flung
in the breeze on all patriotic dates.
Certainly no home where there are
young folks should be without one,
lest these youngsters come to think
of patriotism as just one Of their
studies at school. Our three children
remind us the night before holiday
that the flag must be out the next
day. and they help unwrap 1t and get
it ready for the occasion.
