closet - exchanged places. / had

The party was over. It was three
o'clock in the morning and | sat be-
fore the dressing table taking down
my hair and staring at myself in the
mirror. I had not had the good time

lytical. searched around for the rea-
son. I had tried with all my might
10 enter into the spirit of the party
although, in spite Of their coaXing,
had refused to drink the ginger ale
highballs which Howard Wood mixed
surreptitiously from a flask which he
produced from his pocket. All the
while there was something straining
at myheart-strings - something that
even guarded my tongue and kept me
from contributing anything to the
risoue conversation. They asked me
for a toast but when | looked around
at their excited eyes and flushed faces

me, was the line from Othello- 60

RIGHT LIVING

IF our scientists would give us
a single volume containing rules
for right living, put up in simple
language so that all could under
stand, they would be doing human
ity more good than the thousand
and enc useless fads being detel-
opod can ever DO.
Where is the man who thorough
~ understands eating and sleep
ing? How many lives are cut short
by errors in these two essentials
to life itself2 How many men
know the capabilities Of their in
dividual bodies for work? How
many obey them, or have any kind
of systematic program for the con-
serving Of strength or the output
of energy? We go, slip-shod,
hap-hazard, break-neck to wreck
and ruin so far as good health and
consequent happiness are concern
ed.
We scorn the night and desecrate
the day. We stuff the body and
wonder why we have indigestion
and blood pressure.
In the matter of rest we are as
ignorant, or, if not ignorant, then
in a state Of rebellion. We should
sleep eight hours. We should never
hurry in eating. We should never
neglect the necessary amount Of
water, internally and externally.
We should never waste energy in
worry over things we cannot help.
We should be temperate in all
things. One of our greatest ex-
ponents Of temperance literally ate
himself into premature death.
Many others do the same thing.
The distorted shapes that you
see at the bathing beach bear wit
ness to dietary crime that bathing
will not cure. Man was not Great
ed in the shape Of hippopotamus.
Right living will correct most of
our evils by prevention,-no tell
ing how long we might live, If we
obeyed the law Of right living.

Health
Things You Should Know
PEPTIC ULCER

Speaking generally, any ulcer with
in the stomach or the first four inches
of the upper bowel is called a peptic
ulcer, and is amenable to treatment
as such. The symptoms briefly are:
a considerable period of nervous
ness" coupled with a very sour stom-
ach; then, "gas" and bloating, palpi-
tation of the hevart, etc. There may
be pain, more often uneasiness or dis
tress, depending on the extent of ul-
alton. The distress comes several
hours after eating immediate
Is. In fact, eating usually relieves
temporarily. Then q dose Of soda
or salartus relieves. There may or
may not be constipation or vomiting,
but there is always sour stomach in
ulcer, except just after taking food
II your symptoms are like the above,
it is highly probable that you have
peptic ulcer, and should keep in touch
with your physician.
Many people think peptic ulcer re-
Quires operation; my own experience
is that, many if not the great MAORI
ty Of cases may be cured without OPP
Grafton. It may take months but pa
thence and rigid attention to diet will
pay.
Being an acid condition, acids oft
en- cause distress if eaten. An apple
raw may disagree, while harmless if
cooked Sometimes patients cannot
bear orange juice except Immediately
after meals.
But the great principle to be OBJ
served in ulcer is, to eat only soft
foods. All hard fibers, such as raw
celery, radishes, and hardcooked
meats are injurious. Fried foods DO
/ harm-the nourishment must be soft
/ otherwise the ulcer cannot heal. Soft

ton in life was so obviously the pur-
suit of pleasure. Oh, if | had only
remained with Curtissl Perhaps, af-
ter all there might be some eXplana-
tion of his behaviour-for surely, /
reasoned Curtiss, with his high code
Of morals-which he had instilled into
the very fibre of my being-cOuld not,
himself, be guilty of an affair with
another woman. Then too, knew
that sometimes things look uglier
than they really are-and yet, | ques-
toned myself, why couldn't he make a
clean breast of the situation-and
why had he let me come away in this
fashion?
Life was indeed complicated and /,
who had only tasted its sweetest poll
en-, was now conscious of a sharp sting
which seemed also hidden in its fair
est flowers.
Perhaps I would hear from Curtiss.
Tomorrow's mail might bring a letter
urging me TO return and an eXplana-
ton Of his recent alteration. Until
this did happen it would be impossi-
BILE for me to return, for, turning back
would be a mute admission that
would be satisfied with the old con
ditions. No. I would stay on, ever
/ though | could not become a part Of
this gay crowd of Files choosing. All
! though it required great courage
must be firm in my resolution.

DROP IN u. S. GUESTS
AT EUROPEAN HOTELS
Winter Poor Season for Most Re.
sorts. and Travel Agencies Are
Planning Campaigns.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON. April 3.--The Winter
just passed was a poor season for
most of the European resorts, due
chiefly to a falling off in American
patronage. and hotel mems associa-
tions and travel agencies are planning
campaigns to insure that next Winter
will not see the decline continue. The
lure of Florida is one of the principal
factors blamed, the French and Italian
Rivieras particularly having suffered
from this rival attraction.
The most recent factor was the
March furry in Wall street, which
sent hundreds of American scurrying
home on account of financial uncer-
tainties.
The central European mountain
resorts were affected by the bitter
exchange of speeches between Pre-
mier Mussoini and Foreign Minister
Stresemann, which caused Germans
and Austrians to leave Italy and
Italians to return from the German
resorts.
Fxpectations OF Summer rush OF
tourists from the United States are
the basis of hopes entertained by no
tel men throughout Great Britain and
the Continent for recouping their
losses of the slack Winter. Bookings
are heavy on all Europe bound ships.
but it is noted that there is much
greater demand for economy tours
and cabin ship passages than for ex-
pensive accommodations.
