He developed subacromial bursitis
trying to spell the name of our street.
putting lot of flzz in 1t, and then he
advised me to change the name of the
street or move. But he had something
worth while to say when he cooled Off,
and this is 1t:
I'm Africa, where ! had the misfor-
tune to serve with a much maligned
French regiment of great renoWn. even
the natives knew that the intense heat
OF day and the shivering cold by night
had nothing at all TO do with fevers
and the like. They knew that bites of
insects spread the plaques which beset
the whites. The French and the Eng
lish were prone to blame the trouble on
the changeable climate. I agreed with
the natives.
In the far north I have protected
hands and feet from freezing and come
unscathed through many weary months
OF Winter, sleeping in the snow, wet
through in the Spring breaks when
night temperatures slipped low enough,
believe me. Have had clothing frozen
from head to foot, frozen so that it was
torture to bend legs. The advice OF the
Indians and old timers In the far north
is to forget pneumonia which you think
you'll get, breath carefully to avoid

hands. nose and ears from freezing,
and you'll pull through all right. In
fact. In that country of bitter cold, of
exposure and death from freezing. the
only disease / ran across was smallpox
and l don't believe your critics ever
contended that that was caught in
drafts, did they?
I'm the more prosaic existence which
now enjoy have hunted on that tur-
bulent stream known as the Missouri
River. Boats have been capsized. l
have battled ice filled currents to sand
bars and there dried my freezing cloth
ing by driftwood fire. have stripped
10 the hide In zero weather and turned
as on spit before the fire to keep
both sides of the old anatomy at least
fairly warm while sodden clothing dried
on sticks. The only thing I ever felt
after such exposure was a certain ex-
hilaration. tingling of the skin from
head to foot, prickling as If my body
had caught fire. My companions in
similar plights have walled about pneu-
monia, but never heard of one of them
contracting 1t after sudden and cold
immersion of this sort.
Last Of all interviewed a man who
was In Turkish bath when the build
ing caught fire. Time was Midwinter.
Wrapped IN a bath towel and nothing
more. barefooted, bareheaded. sweating.
he dashed into subzero weather and
cooled of considerably before he was
able to push through the crowd and
enter a steam heated building. Sweat
had frozen on his hair, face, neck, legs
He walled and moaned. He talked of
pneumonia, cold and grip. I kept tract
of this bird and he has so far survived
without even sneeze.
Another incident. I was suffering
from some kind of nose and throat
infection which had run two days. Ears
buzzed, head ached, bones ached, I had
the snuffieS. Friends called it cold,
really I felt hot. The outdoors called
to me on cloudy overcast day when
the Ice had just slipped from the lakes.
There was a cold north wind. Frost
was still on the ground. Ice still clung
to the banks Of creeks, slough, bayous
and lakes.

naturally, IL the diet is right, they will

| Mrs. M. has a case OF chronic ap-
| pendicitis. She Is not In favor of an
operation, and she wants to know my
opinion. Do / think she can recover
from 1t on strict diet of vegetables
and fruit If she sees that her bowels
move regularly? Is there any danger of
chronic appendicitis becoming acute?
Don't try to doctor yourself, Mrs. M.
Recently 1t has been demonstrated
that certain infiammatory conditions of
the ovaries and tubes will clear up
under rest. dlathermy electric heat
| and ultraviolet rays. Perhaps this
treatment will prove effective in clear
ing up infiammations of the appendix,
but so far I have seen no reports on
this work.
The consensus among physicians and
surgeons Is that chronic appendicitis is
dangerous because 1t may become acute.
and the only cure is to have the ir-
ritating appendix removed.
Apropos of this, have letter from
a mother whose daughter had chronic
appendicitis which occasionally gave
her trouble and kept her in constant
fear. All the doctors they had con-
suited had advised her to have 1t out,
but she didn't want to have an opera
tion, so she decided to write to me for
my opinion. A short time after that.
/ wrote an article on the subject, and
they found / agreed with what their
doctors had said. The girl was oper-
ated upon. and is now at work and
feels very. very much better. The whole
household was relieved from the con-
slant apprehension Of having another
case Of acute appendicitis.
You should see your physician.

Charming--Not Perfume.

When We sweet young things doll
ourselves up for the Big Parade, and
apply the atomizer vigorously to our
selves, do we add this finishing touch
because We want those who meet us to
exclaim admiringly: "Oh that girl
uses nice perfume?" We do not. We
want to leave with our companions of
the evening memory of haunting
fragrance--an elusive scent that will
remind them of us always.
That's the real use of a perfume-to
envelop one in faint fragrance that
stimulates the imagination and makes
its wearer creature of charm and
mystery.
But. oh. dear, there are few million
people floating around today who cer-
tainly haven't studied up on the correct
uses of perfume.
Meet most nice young debs In any
hotel lobby, and you will be practically
knocked fiat with the strength and
beauty of the perfume which they un-
doubtedly use
You will be overwhelmed with a
thick, heavy. sweet fragrance which Is
Enthusiastically one of the more expen-
sive brands and Enthusiastically the
wearerS pride and JOY.
There is no mystery about the young
lady who braZenly fiaunts the fact to
the world that her daddy owns so much
money that she can spill whole bottle
of S27 perfume over herself and think
nothing of it.
The simple fact is evident that pap
has the cash and she has the nerve to
spend quantities of 1t on scent
But haven't you once in while
passed by one of those chic foreign
women whose clothes spell Chanel
and whose entire selves spell charm and
romance? Haven't you, as you passed,
been conscious of fragrance-just q
hint of sweetness just the slightest sug-
gestion of perfume?
And with that suggestion has come
an impression Of charm and sophistica-
ton. You've wished you could achieve
Of those scents which grows only in
crystal urns costing few hundreds per
ounce.
You've probably been wrong. The
owner of the mysterious personality
probably combined good taste with
economy, used reasonably priced scent,
and used 1t sparingly.
Also she used lip-salve and powder Of
the same scent She didn't. dash about
buying a heavily scented lip-salye, a
sweet-smeling powder of another brand,
and still another kind of perfume.
Most of you girls think that as long
as the scent is strong enough. It's bound
to blend with the various smells created
by lip-stick, rouge and powder. You're
all wrong.
The combination of three different
kinds of pleasant scents simply makes
you smell like any good drug store.
No. you've got to have good taste In
this scent business, even IL the boy
friend did give you a perfectly grand
bottle of something expensive for
Christmas.
You've got TO use smells that match
just as you would use clothes that
matched.
You've got to select your particular
brand of sweetness with the greatest
care-and then you've got to dab 1t on
so lightly that no one will be overcome
with its quantity and quality.
Perfume is important-but only as 1t
creates fragrance and charm.

My Neighbor Says:

To soften hard butter without
making it oily, as happens when
1t is placed near the fire, rinse
out a small basin in very hot
water and invert it over the but
ter.
When cleaning knives add a
little bicarbonate of soda to the
cleaning powder. This helps to
remove stains.
Pieces of old flannel tackled to-
gether and then bound round
make nice holders for lifting pies
and tins out of the oven, as wool,
being non-conductor of heat,
there Is much less chance of
burning ones fingers.
When baking berry or juicy fruit
pies try using bread crumbs TO
absorb the juice, having the
bread very dry and grating 1t
until 1t is at least one-third of an
inch in depth all over the bottom
crust before adding fruit and
sugar. 1t thickens the juice to
jelly-like consistency and is
much better than raw flour.

WORLD FAMOUS STORIES
BY THOMAS DE oUINCEY.
SAVANNAH-LA-MAR.

Thomas DE Quincy. I7s5-Is5s, was an
EnEs,llsn writer and essaylst He Is espe-
English Opium-Eater."l
God smote Savannah-la-mar, and in
one night by earthquake. removed her,
with all her towers standing and popu-
iati0n sleeping, from the steadfaSt foun-
Cations Of the shore 10 the coral floors
Of ocean.
And God said: "Pompeii did I bury
and conceal from men through II CEN
turies. This city / viii bury, but not
conceal. She shall be a monument TO
men Of my mysterious anger, set in
azure light through generations to come;
for viii eTsl1rine her in crystal dome
Of my tropic seas"
This city, therefore, like mighty
galleon with all her apparel mounted,
streamery flying. and tacklfng perfect,
seems floating along the noiSeless depths
Of the ocean: and oftentimes in CLASSY

an atr-wopen awning above the silent
encampment, mariners from every cline
look down into her courts and terraces,
count her gates. and number the spires
Of her churches.
She is one ample cemetery, and has
beer for many a year; but in the
mighty Gains that brood for weeks over
trupic latitudes, she fascinates the eye
with q Fata-Morgana revelation, as Of

Helpful Hints.

Have a slender pair Of tweezers In .
handy place and when you find the
ribbon or tape has slipped in your
lingerie, insert the tweezers and run
them in until you are able to catch
the end and thus pull 1t back into place
without having to pull the tape en-
tirely out and put it back again.
When sewing shoulder straps onto
underwear, turn the end of the strap
up diagonally and sew the bias end
to the garment making the inside edge
OF the strap next to the neck shorter
than the outer edge. and you will never
be troubled with straps falling down
onto the arm.
Keep little six-inch metal rule and
a box OF wax crayons in your work box.
1t will be useful when putting in hens,
tucks, and setting on ruffies. Measure
with the little rule and mark with the
crayOnS, a light crayon for dark ma
terial and dark crayon for light ma
terial
If you have trouble threading the
sewing machine needle, keep a small
magnifying glass in the machine draw
er. and by holding the glass a certain
distance from the eye of the needle
you can see to thread it without any
trouble.

Lady Mayor and

toms lady mayor and her daughter
sailed for the United States today
aboard the S. S teviathan on a
visit that will include New York.
Philadelphia. Washington. Bost on
and other cities.
As she stepped aboard clad in the
full official red robes and the chain
Of office. her special flag as the
chief official of Southampton was
broken from the Leviathan's fore
mast. Her office is one OF great
antiquity and she is not only chief
magistrate OF the city. but also ad-
miral of the port and flies her own
flag, which has silver oar as the
symbol OF her position.
Mrs. WEIGH carried two wreaths.
one for Washing' on's tomb and the
other for the tomb Of the unknown
soldier at Arlington.
