Mrs. L. wants to know If win write
something on the "purring" heart-the
cause. chances Of recovery, etc.
When the heart beats-contracts and
relaxes-there is characteristic sound
which is described as lubdub If for
some reason the valves do not fit to-
gether, some of the blood flows back,
making another sound, which is most
frequently called in medical terms a
murmur. The layman frequently terms
it q ''purr"
The heart valves may be disordered
from several reasons, among them in
Examinations from infectious germs or
their poisons, deposited on them during
general infectious disease, or acquired
from some local infections, such as
tonsils, running ears, carious teeth, ETC.
Objected tonsils are the most frequent
offenders) They may also be put out
of alignment through Inflammation IN
the heart, causing 1t to swell so they
won't meet.
The prognosis (outcome) Of valvular
disease depends upon the degree Of the
injury to the valves and the ability Of
the heart to carry on even though they
are disabled.
There are some inurmurs that ap-
shortening of life at all, the heart run
ming along Just as merrily with them as
without them. For instance, there is a
heart murmur that Is frequently heard
in childhood and during adolescence
which apparently is of mo significance.
And some murmurs in adults also.
I have told you this story OF Osler
before, but I'll repeat 1t. Osler was a
very famous physician who died COM
| paratively recently. He tells of warning
| a young woman who had a decided
| murmur that it would be wise for her
| to not marry and bear children. Twenty
years or so later ne was examining a
woman and, in the course Of examfna-
| ton, he commented on the fact that
| she had murmur. Yes" she said
isn't that the same fnurmur I had 20
years ago, when you advised me not to
marry and have children? You will be
| interested to know that ] did marry
| and have six children" =.
Osler used to tell this to his medical
| students so that they would not be too
severe in their prognosis of certain
| heart rnurn1urS. t
OF course, your doctor is the one to
| tell you if your heart condition Is such
| that it is necessary to cut down phys
| ical activities or If 1t is necessary to
| take medication. k,.
The degenerative diseases Of the
heart-not especially the valyular
| disease with the murmur, but the de-
| generative type, in which the heart
muscles themselves are affected-and
the degenerative diseases of the blood
vessels and kidneys are very much OH
| the increase. These diseases are very
much more prevalent among those over
weight. You can think of the reasons
| We have an article on reducing and
gaining weight which can be obtained

Selecting, Effective Jewelry
BY MARY MARSHALL.

been especially important lately. Chok-
ers, necklaces, bracelets and earrings
have been depended upon to provide the
necessary touch of jewelry, and there
have been all sorts of ornaments for
hats and frocks besides. But rings
have assuredly come into their own
again, and. many Of them are very
striking. The ring shown in the sketch
is of metal and ivory, cleverly con-
trived to accentuate the graceful curv-
ing of the finger. The necklace above
bears the unlnistakable impress of the
house of Lanvin, and the bracelet Is of
wood, gilt and metal.
There Is new way for working out
color harmonies between frocks and COL
ored gems. 1t is rather simple when
you know how it is done. Consider
your frock in terms of primary colors
or combinations of primary colors and
then choose a gem stone of the color
or colors left out in the frock. Thus a
frock of violet, composed of red and
blue, would best set off the beauties #
yellow topaz. Emeralds, consisting of
blue and yellow mixed into green, call
for a background of some of the red
shades. Sapphires of pure blue call for
background Of orange containing red
and yellow.
Following this rule, gems should al
ways be worn on contrasting back
grounds or on an off-white background
that is ttnged with just a suspicion of
the contrasting shade. Thus for eve
ming rubieS look best on off-wlite of
a slightly greenish tone, and amethysts
on soft maize.
This weeks help for the home dress
maker gives practical suggestions for
working with fur. You may have bits
of fur on hand or an old fur garment
with parts still in good condition that
you might use for trimming on a new
frock of wrap. The sketch accompany
ing the circular shows how the fur may
be sewn in the right way I think
you will find it useful and If you would
like a copy please send me q stamped
self-addressed envelope and I will send
it to you at once.

carved italian table and chair, which
had been used by the presiding bishops
at the Quadrennial General Convention
of the Methodist Episcopal Church at
Kansas City last Spring. Mr.. Let's, at
auction, is understood to have paid
high price for the historic furniture,
which will be used at meetings of the
board. It was received for the board by
Bishop William Fraser Mcdowell of
Washington.
Financial Showing.

ing a bequest of $360,000 from the es-
tate of the late Miss Mary Graydon.
Operating expenses increased from
$68, ,852 in 1923 to 1921 ,009 in 1928,
leaving the last year with an operating
deficit. as the Graydon estate went to
endowment.
Growth in Student Roll.
The student enrolment, DR.. Clark
told the trustees, had grown IN five
years from 228 to 500, which included
the establishment of the College of Lib
eral Arts on the campus. The instruc-
tional staff, he said, had increased from
80 to 65.
For the fiscal year 1929 and 1880 the
trustees adopted budget of $340, 300,
the largest in the history of the institu-
ton.

40 PLACES'ARE OPEN
AT MILITARY ACADEMY
Those to Be Filled by Sons of War
Dead Need Applicants, Re-
port Declares.

Adjt. Gen. Lutz Wahl has notified
the Secretary of War that there still
is a dearth of candidates for the United
States Military Academy under the act
of Congress of June 6, 1925, providing
40 additional cadetShips Ito be filled
by sons of officers, soldiers, sailors and
Marines of the Army, Navy and Marine
Corps who were killed in action or died
prior to July 2, 1921, of wounds or in
juries received during the World War"
Under that act five candidates were
designated for the entrance examina-
ton last March, of which number two
failed at the mental test and three
failed to report for examination.
1t was further reported by the adju-
tant general that there were $50 cadets
Gncluding four Filipinos and two
foreignerS) at the Military Academy
July / last, which number has been
increased to 1854 since then by the
qualification of 3S4 candidates. OF the
total cadet enrolment, 81 were ap-
pointed by the President; 991 from the
States and Territories; from the
District of Columbia: 4 from the
Philippines; 83 from the Regular Army;
96 from the National Guard; from
Siam and / from China. The five
foreigners were appointed under the
provisions Of special acts of Congress.
That the corps of cadets is in fine
physical condition is indicated by the
fact that there were but two dis
charges for physical disability during
the past fiscal year.
