Cavalry Officers
OF Gaudy Attire
By the Associated Press.

-
LONDON. January British
cavalry officers have been trembling
in their boots because of an econ
omy wave which has swept
throughout the war department.
Spurs have been toned down a
bit In their shine and polish, but
their Jingle has not been interfered
with.
Spats in the army came under
the ban some weeks ago as I'M
necessary. Now the nickel stirrups
of which the cavalrymen have been
80 proud are being replaced by iron
stirrups, which are cheaper, and
the officers spurs to be handed out
by the department are to be of a
steel substitute which will still
shine but do not cost the govern
ment much money.

in the Writing World as an
Authority on the Problems
of Love and Marriage
THERE'S a popular idea that
youth always finds love. Yet
thousands Of young women never
had a beau"
Hundreds of girls write me
frankly of their longing for the
good times, attention and love
which have passed them by.
Many women go through life
without receiving a proposal OF
marriage.
OF course, countless women re-
main unwed, not from lack Of
chance to marry, but because the
men who sought their love failed
to satisfy their ideals. And a
surprising number even in this
matter -of-fact age are single be-
cause of loyalty to a long-lost
love.
Hundreds of attractive girls
and women have few opportuni-
ties to meet congenial men.
Doubtless. a few prefer the indie
pendence of single blessedness"
to marriage. But the fact re-
mains that hundreds, if not thou
sands, of girls suffer from heart
hunger which is never satisfied.
I can think of a number Of
spinsters I know, of sweet and
lovable character, who have re-
manned single from necessity,
not choice.
Emily is smart, up-to-dafe,
clever. Yet at forty-two she is
settling down to the fate of an
"old-maid" school teacher.

since It supplies all the Vita
mines, as well as the valuable
mineral salts Of lime and iron. It
is especially valuable since IL is
eaten unlocked and none of the
contents are destroyed.
Wheat grain is naturally pro-
vided with a large amount OF
vitamine to balance its carbo-
hydrate, but this vitamine is en-
tirely contained in the bran ard
germ that Is removed from highly
refined flour.
Steel rolling also removes all
the fat, all the more valuable
proteins, and most OF the mIneaI
salts. including the. valuable
phosphates. War bread was
often a very bad quality, but it
contained vitamins which ac-
counts for the improved health
OF the nation during the war.
Stone milling retains nearly all

The stone dust also contains
