Man-Made Malaria and It's Remedy

All the malaria that was scat
tered by mosquitoes bred in man
made pools came to be called
''man-made" malaria.
And there is yet a lot of it,
not at Panama-but right here
in this presumably enlightened
United States.
Railroads will leave pools by
the side of their tracks and en-
bankments. Road commissioners
are guilty of the same careless
ness. Villages will drain their
waste water into open cesspools.
Power plants practice open drain
age. Some stupid people, more
right than wise, still have stag.

premises.

advice concerning not only this
protection of their own interests
but the protection of the health
interests of the people.
There is a point of ethics in

into statutory law. The ethical
point is that no individual. cor

do anything that invades the
equal rights of others.
You have right to protect
yourself against ''man-made ma

THERE is a popular but mis-
4 taken idea that women re-
nowned fox beauty go through
an elaborate ritual daily in order
to attain and retain their good
looks.
AS a matter of fact, the toilet
shelf Of many a famous beauty
contains only a few well chosen
preparations which she has found
especially suited to her individual
needs.
She knows that the prepare
tions ideally suited to one type
of skin may ruin another. SO
while she experiments now and
then, she does so very cautiously.
She has only one complexion,
and she has no desire to take
gambling chances with it by
trying out" every cold cream,
lotion and astringent she sees ad-
vertised.
Many fastidious woman makes
it a rule to have new toilet
preparation analysed by chem.
list before she ventures to apply
it to that precious and fragile
gift of nature, her complexion.
There are. however, humble
and wholesome aids to health
and beauty which are obviously
safe. Lemons for instance, are
a hobby of mine. L find them
refreshing and identifying in a
hundred different ways.
Oatmeal is another humble aid
to loneliness which a woman in
quest of beauty cannot afford to
ignore.
Oatmeal soap is excellent for
