QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Question: H. H. asks: "What
are the symptoms of brain tumor.
and the duration? Is there no cure?"
Answer: / have seen cases of
apparent brain tumor which have
responded to the fasting cure. A
small percentage of cases has been
cured by surgery. The symptoms
may be those Of paralysis in some
part of the body, or there may be
ST ..smodic twitchinos in the muscles
that are connected with the nerves
in the brain, which are pressed upon.
Often a pupil Of one eye will be
dilated and the other contracted. A
nerve specialist should be called to
make the diagnosis Of the case you
write about.
Question:: A. M. L. writes: evil
you kindly state whether or not
Melba toast contains starch, and how
does the starch content compare with
ordinary wholewheat toast? Is
Melba toast all right to use in COM
bination with eggs and milk dishes.
cheese, cottage cheese, junket, etc. ?"
Answer: Melba toast is made
from white bread toasted so thor
oughly that all of the starch is
dextrinized. 1t is therefore pur.
deXtrose, and combines perfectly
with any other kind of food.
Question:: Mrs. Flatbush writes:
~ have been following your diet
for three months, have lost twenty
pounds, am feeling fine, and sleep
like a log. Blood was a little thick
and liver sluggish but these condi-
tions have greatly improved. Can
you tell me the cause of roaring
in the ears, like the sound of kissing
steam? 1t does not trouble me
especially but would be glad to get
rid Of it,"
Answer: The loaring in the ears
comes either from catarrh of the
inner ear, or from high blood pres
sure. Have your doctor take your
blood pressure and in this way estab-
fish the cause Of the trouble. You
can then take the proper dietetic
treatment to cure either Of the con-
ditions mentioned.

Two Birthday Parties

Little Gloria vanderbilt had blrthday par
ty the other day.
party was just about the finest any little girl
ever had. There was magician there to pull
rabbits out Of hats and make playing cards dis
appear into thin air. There was a real Mother
Goose to tell fairy stories. There were Easter
lilies, sweet peas and tulips all around the
house. The birthday cake was two and one
half feet tall, and little sugar Cupids were
perched on its sides.
1t was, you see, the kind of birthday party
that can be had only by girl whose daddy has
u great deal of money.
1t happens that the little girl next door to
our house had birthday the other day, too.
Her daddy is an automobile mechanic He
came home an hour early for the occasion I'm
der his arm he had box, and the little girl
spied him half block from the house. She
ran down the street to meet him and threw
herself into his arms and he carried her home,
while she fondled the box and tried to peek in
side its tissue paper wrappings.
She had the box open before they got to the
house. Out of it she drew new dolly. She
squealed, "Oh, Daddy!' and then they went
in the house and we lost sight of them. But a
little later some other little girls, painfully
dressed up in Starched dresses, each carrying
a little package bought at the five-and-ten,
came troopng up to the door, and pretty soon
there came the sound of childish laughter and
shouts IF glee from the house next door. And
a few minutes later daddy went down to the
drug store 10 buy quart Of ice cream, while
the mother could be seen in the kitchen ar
ranging some cookies on little plates.
And, to our way Of thinking, that little girl
was lot happier on her birthday than Gloria
Vanderbilt was on hers.
OF course, it's easy to say money can't buy
everything; and sometimes, when we're
pnched for few extra dollars, it seems fool
sh to say it. But it's true, nevertheless. Only
two things are needed to make child happy
love and kindness; and these two things flower
marveously in homes where there is never a
nickel to spare.
Three-foot birthday cakes are very fine, and
magicians and real live Mother Gooses-or
should we say Mother Geese ?-are pretty nice
yet we can't help feeling just little sorry for
Gloria Vanderbilt. She's missing so much,
somehow.
When you have everything, how are you go.
ing to be thrilled by new gifts? And, when
you grow up, how are you going to get any
meaning out of life? The thing that gives life
its flavor is the overcoming Of obstacles, the
surmounting of disappointments, the conquer
ing Of difficulties. Your life is going to be
pretty empty if your fathers money can dc
all of that for you.
We're not sorry for the little girl next door
But we can't help feeling that little Gloria
Vanderbilt is to be pitied just little.

A New Dirigible Factory

n NeW UHISIUIe Factory
Three big cities-Baltimore, Los Angeles
and Cleveland-are making strenuous efforts
to get the new Goodyear dirigible factory.
AS American factories go this project isn't
unusually large. The company at present has
contracts for only two dirigibles. Yet these
three cities are looking to the future. In a
few years. they believe, the making of dirig-
lbies will be one of the countrys great indus.
tries.
This gives an indication of the future that
wise business men see for air travel If vast
developments were not definitely on the hori
ION, these cities wouldn't be scrambling to get
that factory quite so eagerly.

1t was found that such fat sums
could be made by renting out the
sides and top Of the building for
electric signs that would make the
White Way brighter, that the idea
Of running a hotel was given up.
am told that some bright BUSH
ness men saw the possibilities Of
this location for signs and pur-
chased it, knowing full we'll that
the building of the signs would so
obscure the sunlight from the
rooms that it would be difficult to
rent them. The ground floor is oc-
cupied by stores and there is lit
tie beauty parlor on the first floor.
Thereafter the building is COM
pletely covered with electric eye

Which reminds me that a bat

Most Of the wealthy guests in the
big Manhattan hotels bring valua-
bic dogs with them and demand
suitable accommodations.
l am told that several Of them
found these guests so particular
about the care Of their pets that
special service is given for q stip-
ulatcd sum. A nightly rental is
paid for the dog quarters, even as
for the room. Meals are served
the CANNES at so cents per meal,
and special dog experts prepare the
food. The kennels are SO equipped
that they give the travelling purps
every accommodation.
There are few things the big
Manhattan hotels overlook. Most
of them are equipped with q stock
exchange ticker room and board, 80
that the busy traveller can keep
track Of his gamblings while on the
run. Some of them have tickers in
their rooms. Most Of the bigger
clubs have them also. The ticker
plays a predominant role in the
business life Of the city.

swimming pools, tennis courts and

UHE children call her miss
Alice and their parents be-
fore them called her that. Every
body in the town where she
teaches knows Miss Alice" and
everybody who has had the good
fortune to be in her class remem.
bers her with gratitude and at.
lection.
Miss Alice" firmly believes that
every child can excel in at least
one thing. She has found by ex-
perience that if a child at some
time, in. some way, achieves a
marked success it inspires him to
further effort.
There was little Aaron Black.
Aaron was little bit less than
average in the matter of intelli-
gence and that's why Miss Alice"
began hunting around for some
line in which he could excel. She
found that the boy could write
unusually well. After that she
let him write part of some lesson
on the board each day; and she
always cOmplimented his smooth,
legibIe h n d writ ing. Aaron
beamed with pride. His tousled
head went UP as it had never done
before. He could look his school
mates in the eye; for there was
something that he could do better
than most of them. This achieve
ment, this new self-confidence en-
couraged him to make greater

effort in his other studies; and
Aaron took new lease on school
life.
Then there was Sally Mack.
Sally was fat; she was older than
her classmates; she was dull: and
she was painfully sensitive.
The first time Sally arose in
miss Alice's" class to recite
some of the children snickered.
But they never did it again. For
when Sally had occasion to leave
the room their teacher made them
understand just how rude and I'M
kind and ill-bred that giggling
seemed.
Before long Miss Alice" dis
covered that Sally had a beautf-
full voice. After that Sally was
asked to lead the class singing.
Your voice is so sweet and
clear that / want the other
pupils to initiate your tones" she
told the astonished girl.
That success gave Sally more
satisfaction than anything that
had ever come her way, and 1t
encouraged her to try harder for
other small successes.
Sally is grown now. She has
worked off that superfluous fat;
she has overcome. her shyness
and .awkwardness. and it doesn't
matter if she is dull. For she is
good-looking, she sings like a
nightingale. and her husband and
children adore her.
