QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Question: Mrs. j. G.. asks: "Is a
blood count Of $780, 700 hemoglobin
dangerous? l certainly think your
articles are helpful"
Answer: You are mistaken in the
report Of your blood court. as you
doubtless refer to the number Of red
cells, and not to the hemvglobin,
which is the color of tho blood and
measured in percentages. When the
number Of red cells falls below four
and half million, it must always be
considered q sign Of disease. As
yours is below four million you
should certainly do everything you
can to find what is causing such a
decrease. The blood examination
alone will not tell the cause. You
must have a complete diagnosis, with
urin-analysis, X-ray examination,
and thorough body examination
made by competent diagnostician.
Do not delay this examination.
Question: Mrs. A. J. writes:
Kindly explain if it is true that the
citric acid fruits have an irritating
effect on the bladder. / have = blad-
der weakness and it seems to be ag-
gravated whenever I drink orange
juice or lemon juice. Also, how
does a wholewheat product and
brown sugar 60 together?"
Answer: Those who have cystitis
or any bladder irritation will often
notice an added irritation when they
take any acid fruits or 60 on fast.
This is because Of the large amount
of toxins being eliminated. This in
creased elimination is due to the
stimulation Of the eliminative func-
tions through the use Of the acid
fruits, or to fasting. The acid of the
fruit course does not reach the blad-
der, but is converted and really has
an alkaline reaction. Any irrita-
ton caused when these fruits are
used is because Of the added elimina-
ton of toxins. It is not advisable
to use any kind of sugar with whole
wheat or other grains. This means
brown sugar, honey, maple syrup.
as well as the commercial white
sugar.

Smuggled Gems

Diamond smuggling is becoming more and
more bothersome to United States customs Of
ficials, both because it seems to be increasing
and legitimate dealers in diamonds in this
country are complaining to the government
that their business is being injured by traffic
in struggled gems which undersell those on
which the duties have been paid.
Their small bulk makes it comparatively
easy to bring diamonds into the country with
out declaring them at the customs office Be-
fore he was arrested an assistant steward or
a liner brought in 55 large consignments. No
doubt there are other smugglers as successful
as he and many more who risk it once or twice
Diamond smuggling is of two types: that
engaged in by professionals and that under
taken by amateurs, usually women, actuated
by the desire to avoid paying duty on gems
purchased for personal use. The amateurs vi
olate the law no less than the professionals,
however, and both are the object of the fed
eral anti-smuggling activities. If revenue
agents are correct in their estimate that one
smuggling ring, now being broken up has been
loing business of $1OOO,OOO a year, the
American people have been buying far more
diamonds than government records show.
Here is one instance where fabulous statistics
do not do the nations prosperity justice.
The duty on diamonds is not protective
tariff, either in intent or effect, but is pro-
llfic source OF revenue for the government.

BY RUTH DEWEY GROVES

Dear Nom:
You don't know men at all, you
innocent darling, if you think they
have to be lured into forgetting
themselves" Why, there isn't any
more sex appeal in pair Of pretty
legs than there is in a pretty face.
ld-rain-in in the-face Martin is just
the kind he is because he is that
kind, and l hope you won't attempt
to deny that men got fresh with
gi1ls even in your day of so-called
modest fashions.
But suppose someone always
found a reason for placing the
blame on the girls. Maybe because
they lifted their eyelashes and let
the men peep into their souls!
But listen, Nom, if men are GO
ing to worry about the way girls
dress there won't be much business
done. The old tosh about dressing
like a mummy for the office is as
dead as a )do.
When I recall those photos in
the old red plush album l groan to
think Of the faith the little shebas
Of days gone by placed in lot of
gingham and what-not to protect
them against insulting sheiks.'
The way women dress hasn't any
thing to do with the morals Of q
country. I've heard of African
regions where immortality is prac-
tically unknown and the natives
wear no clothes at all!
OF course, / wouldn't advise any
girl to try a LADY Godiva" down
Main street, but / do insist that if
she should attempt such . feat in
one Of her weak moments it would
be only a natural-born polygamist
who'd try to start something with
her. That's what old Martin is, and
if Florence had been dressed like
her grandmother he'd have paved
her just the same.
The millions of men who arc hold
ing onto their stenographers in
spite of scanty attire and short
skirts should mean something to
you. 1t does to me. It means that
men are not losing their heads at
the sight Of feminine figures re-
vealed by modern dress.
I'd hate to think that Alan was
srch a. crumb he couldn't be trust
ed to withstand the temptation
Of an up-to-the-minute girl in his
office. / wouldn't want him to be
SO unimaginative as to prefer q
homely stenographer to a swell
locker, either. No more than I'D
want him to lose his taste for any
thing that's attractive. Goodness

Crime and Newspapers

In another column The Tribune is printing
some concentrations of the Chicago Tribune,
one of the nations fearless newspapers The
encomiums come as the result Of an exception
al journalistic service.
A negro, through the improper use OF the
classified columns of The Chicago Tribune,
1ured q nurse to certain house and assaulted
her. The newspaper realizing it's responsible
ity, started q nationwide hunt for the criminal.
The widest publicity was given to the revolving
crime, 4 reporter was assigned to the case and
more than S., 900 spent to bring the brute to the
bar Of justice.
The reporter located the negro and brought
him back to Chicago, where he entered plea
of guilty and was sentenced to 60 years. !.
Publicity is a necessity in the detection OF
crime-one Of the greatest assets society has
for its own protection. Recently the Hickman
case publicity uncovered weakling at the Uni
versity of Minnesota. The student was immedi-
ately taken into custody, separated from so
ciety and, no one can tell, but it is reasonably
certain that the detection of this student pre-
vented crime against society. Without pub
licity. the student may have been left to corrupt
others in the student body.
The clean, white light Of honest, fearless pub
licity is q powerful agent in cleansing society
Of such weaklings as the negro who assaulted a
defenseless white girl and the university stu
dent who commended the Hickman crime.
Those who urge suppression OF al! crime news
as the best antidote against crime have still to
learn the effective, constructive power of well
directed publicity. The Chicago Tribune is to
be congratulated upon the manner in which it
avenged the girls honor and it merely serves
notice on police officers the world over what can
be done when intelligence is applied to detection
of crime.

the extravagant fad, am told, that
a shop recently opened in the upper
Fifties for the turning out Of or

Robert Coleman, fellow column
list, advises me that he heard of one
such key. made Of platinum and set

Such costly toys are generally
brought into vogue by those PAM
pered girlies of the night club route
whose regulations start out by be-
ing uncertain but gain certainty as
time goes on. It is no secret that
these blase products of an artificial
life are ever on the search for lux
uries as useless as their own exist
ences. These Loreleis, who re not
always blond, pass from the hands
of one rich spender into the hands
Of another. And they gather such
favors as they can while the going is
good.
It is from this parasitic parade
that we get most of the sensational
fads in dress, behavior and iewelry.
TO some extent they take pattern af-
ter the manik;ns Of the French race

to startle the crowds by exhibiting
some extreme innovation.
The bejeweled key is nothing par

cut-back to the Orient when keys
were bedazzling and sparklingly or

took up the idea and any museum to-

There was. Of course, moral obligation on

consulted its columns were protected. bur it
might have been discharged less thoroughly in

Hughes Approves Maurtua
Report FavOring Other
States Rights

HAVANA, Feb. P-Three hours
intense discussion today in the sub
committee OF the Pan-American con-
ference's committee on public inter
national law failed to harmonic the
conflicting views regarding the rights
and duties OF states. The subject at
issue was one the right of one
country to intervene in the internal
affairs of another and it was found
impossible to discover a formula
which should appear to all countries
to protect their independence and
territorial integrity.
The United States and Argentina
again were reported as taking op-
posite positions on the discussion
which was behind closed doors
Charles E. Hughes, of the American
delegation, favored the text of the
Maurtua report on this important
question, in which, although the
sacredneSs of the independence III
every country was emphasized, it was
subordinated to the observance of the
rights of other states.
Honorio Pueyrredon, OF Argentina,
insisted, it is understood, upon the
formula proposed last Saturday in
his speech opposing the Maurtua re.
port in which he condemned ali
intervention in the affairs of other
states, whether diplomatic, by force
permanent or temporary"
Argentina's position was dictated
DR.. Pueyrredon said after the meet
ing, by "the traditional national
policy which all our governments, nc
matter of what party, have adhered
to since the day of our independence. y
Efforts were made III the commit
tee meeting to convince the Argentine
delegate that the Maurtua formula
was wider than his own and even
embraced his own, but it is under
stood the ambassador not only dis
agreed with this but holds the belief
that the difference between the two
projects is so wide that the Argentine
position cannot be met by merely
minor changes in the Maurtua report
