Washington April ? tP'- Spring fever is not disease but a common experience. Nature provides the remedy.
 II is an experience which falls to the lot Of mother, father, son anl daughter. 1T seems 10 attack the school boz with particular Nirulence.
 "The administering Of spring ton ics," Surgeon General Cumming ha. observed, lis one of ,he fallaci~s that bloom in tho spring"
 As winter molts into spring and a new warmth comes into the air. the stimulation of cold weather sub sides and a desire 10 ''lc' down" in everyday tasks is general. Outdoor pursuits, restricted by the condI- tions Of winter. become more and more allurlng and the appetite turns naturally from meats to fruit and fresh vegetables.
 This languid sensation it has been
 suggested. may be merely a physical reaction to the ultra violet and in- fra red rays Of the sun. Through the winter. the average person has not had the advantage Of these beneficial rays. The skin, untanned as 2 result Of this relative contine- nent, is very susceptible 10 the rays the theory gocs--and the revival of outdoor activities results in a ] heavy dose. Whether this is true, 1 however, or whether spring fever is nothing more than a normal rcac- ton against work and a desire to | got outdoors and play, remains to be l determined.
 1 At any rate. the best cure is a diet of fresh, clean food with plenty | of fruit. lots of fresh air and sleep. and outdoor exercise. If mother re- ] mains convinced that more than ! that is required for her youngsters. l she may take them to her physician n ] for their annual physical examina- 1 lion. obtain an intelligent diagnosis
 and follow the advice received.

Working Women Lose
 None of Their Charm

Washington, April 4. R-Woman loses none of her charm by engag- ing in the various professions and activities once considered exclusive ly masculine, believe Herr Von Pritt- witz und Gaffron. German ambassa- dor 10 the United States.
 He told the members of the Wo- mems University club here that in Germany, where there now are 33 women ill the reichsrath, women are becoming very active.
 And I should hate to see them leave any branch of the work they are doing" he added. Far from robbing them of their charm, think it gives them an added charm. I could scarcely say less. since l met my wife when she was manager of shop for German industrial women"

By Thornton W. Burgess Banana Bill's Queer Tongue

Appearances sometimes deceive: Investigate ere you believe.
 Banana Bill
 Scrapper the KinEblrd had been telling Bobby Coon about Banana Bill the Toucan. who lives down in the Tropics. T suppose" said Bobby, that his bill must be very big
 Big" exclaimed Scrapper. Why for his size, Banana Bill has the biggest bill Of any one know. If is so bis that you wonder how he can hold his head up. II IS so big that the first time you see him fly you expect to see him tumble heels over head. It doesn't seem as If he could possibly carry such a bill. But you know things are not always what they seem. He tells nV that that great biz bill Of his isn't heavy at all. It looks heavy, but it isn't"
 T said to him one time. Banana Bill. 1t makes my neck ache just to look at you He gave such a funny look Of surprise. 'Why?' he asked. 'Bccsuse,' said I, that bill of yours looks as if it must weigh almost as much as you do.' II was then that Banana Bill opened his mouth and showed me that that bill really is quite light: and it was then that l saw his queer tongue"
 Y suppose said Bobby Coon. "you arc going 10 tell me that Ba- mana Bill is another who has long tongue"
 NO" said Scrapper. ''his tongue A no longer than his bill In fact, it isn't quite as long as his bill, That is fairly long. but it isn't like one Of those long tongues that can be run away out of the mouth. No. 1t isn't the length that makes his tongue queer. It's the shape of it. l have seen many kinds of tongue, never one like the one Banana Bill has inside that big bcak of his. It is like a. feather,'
 What's that ?' exclaimed Bobby Coon.
 "I said il is like feathcr.' re- piled ScrappCt.
 How can tongue he like q feather?" demanded Bobby coon un- helievingly

Nude Stockings
 Not So Popular
These Shades are Being
 Replaced by Gray.

Paris. April {. R>-Paris at last has turned it's thumbs down on the flesh colcred hosiery. which has been the standard day and eve ming stocking for several years.
 Gray is the newcomer, and the people who make the styles say that it is only. matter of a few months until dark shades of gray will deepen into black and hosiery will be back to the point 1t started from in the days which followed the War.
 Nude stockings are still in the majority on the boulevards of Paris. But in the exclusive shopping streets and in and out of the lux ury shops dove tints and smoke shades are worn by many women. In the evening at the smartest res taurants and dancing places one sees women wearing mauve gray stockings with dresses of white, silver or pale tones. The flesh shades, matching the dress in in- tcnsity of tone. are still worn with gowns of pink or bright color.
 Accessories like shoes. gloves and handbags. taking their cue from stockings, are also shifting from rosy beige tones to gray. Shop windows disclose more gray than hcisc shoes for wear with summer afternoon costumes. Gray suede and kid slippers apparently are to have an enormous vogue for sum- mer

Longer Skirts Required
 For Nurses in London

London. April 1. P)-Nurscs' skirts at the municipal hospital in Willcsden. a London borough. have been heightened. and their ''chok- CT" collars shortened up a bit.
 Skirts hccraftcr must be dis creetly long," by order of the town council, reaching at least four inches below the knee.
 Councillor Helen Royle was the leader in the reformed skirt move ment her contention being that the skirt shortening fad had reached the limit and that it was about tine for the lengthcning process to begin.
 The old stiff high collar which has been a part of the nurses nni- form for so long has been con- dcmncd by the council as imp-ac- tical and uncom fortable.
 Miss Eoylc, seeking to replace the choker is working on a design which follows the Byron shape roll ed collar effect.
 The nurses concur in the collar alterations. but have other views about the council tampering with the length of their skirts.

He put bandaGcs on my face and head as if I'd been in an accident and took me 10 a small hospital where he was nearly enough the whole thing so that mo- body questioned anything ho did. Those bandases which cffcCtuaily altered my appearance were changed only by himself during the time 1 was there-about ten days, Two dayA after 1 came, he "bobbed' my nose, and when l left the hospital and went with Henry and Anna to the hotel was so handagod that my own mother wouldn't have known me. Henry explained that I had been in sn automobile accident. and SO even If the detectives had como to the hotel there would have been no danger, for as I told you, Henry had told them weeks before that he was expecting his niece"
 "Detectives. I echoed, startled, "Was there a police hunt for Nou" How did they keep il out of the newspapers?"
 There was no police hunt" she replied. "My mother would not have had any one dream I'd run away for half the kingdom. The King Of Trees would have no wife with such . scandal about her.

Your Health How To Keep It. Causes of Illness
BY DIR. MORRIS FTSHBEIN Editor Journal Of tho American Metlical Association and of Hy-
 gcia, the Health Magazine

Medical Association, and of Hy-
 gcia, the Health Magazine
 The well-known staff of life Is not yet generally accepted as the ideal food. nor indeed should it be. On the other hand, bread does con- tain much material that is exceed ingly useful in human nutrition and it is well therefore to have a what it means.
 According to V. II. Mottram, bread, white or brown, is poor food except in conjunction with other foods. White bread contains too little or too poor protein: |: brown bread contains roughage, in- decd too much for some people and more vitamin B than white bread, but it is still short of being con- plete food.
 Adding Cereals A French investigator named Lo- picquc made an extensive study to 1 find out whether or not bread could be imroved by adding to it portions of corn, rice, barley. rye, | buckwheat, tapioca or oatmeal.
 Rye was found to be the most suitable of all of these substances { for mixture with ordinary bread in order to lower the price oi bread and to make it at the same time suitable as a food.
 It is important to remember tha, l few people in America depend or bread alone for their diets. There. fore. experiments made with white rats fed on bread alone are hardly applicable to human beings. | It is quite true that young rat. can be made to gain in weight or feeding them with whole wheat bread, but they gain also on ordi. nary sour bread. milk rolls or white bread, although not quite so much
 Mik Helps
 The addition of milk to bread ol Of butter serves to raise its content of calcium and of important vita mins. Yeast is added to bread ii the baking and should give vita. min B. but the amount of yeas added is usually so small as to b' relatively insufficient.
 If children are compelled to sub sist largely on a diet of whit bread. vitamin B must be added t, the diet in some special manner.
