QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Spots Before the Eyes

Spots Before the Eyes
Question: Mary ]. asks: What
causes black spots and chains AMI
webs to float In front Of the eyes all
the time? Have had them for about
four or five years"
Answer: This trouble is usually
caused because the blood is in a
highly toxic state and some Of these
impurities affect the eyes in such
manner as to cause microscopical
particles to float about In the watery
fluid inside Of the cyeball. This
trouble can often be cured through a
complete detoxication Of the system
by fasting, dieting, exercising and
other hyeienic measures.
Pimples on Tongue
Question: Mrs. K. H. G.. asks:
Gould you please tell me why / get
pimples on my tongue after eating
| walnuts?"
Answer: There is an acid con-
tanned in the skin of the walnut
which proves irritating to some peo-
pie. This IS why you notice pimplc5
on the tongue after eating them. You
should either blanch the walnutS or
substitute blanched almonds or pc
cans.
FreckleS
Question: Rosy writes: Il have
freckles which fade in the winter,
but I look terrible in the summer. Is
It the sun that causes this? How can
I keep them from becoming so plain
in the summer"
| Answer: II were you I wouldn't
worry much about freckles. In fact.
with these March winds blowing, my
own freckles are coming out in full
bloom and I am not worrying . bit.
Your face may be more interesting
because Of the freckles but certainly
cannot look terrible" There are
many freckle renaovers on the mar
ket. but any Of them are liable to
injure the skin. You cannot remove
freckles without injury any more
than leopard can change his spots.

CHORAL CONCERT
Open TO PUBLIC
King Olaf" to Be Given at
Strand Theater

Although part OF the regular sub
scription course of the Civic Music
association, the third and last con-
cert OF the series to be given by the
New Britain Choral society and
orchestra will be open to the general
public. it was announced by Harris
+. Hodge at the weekly rehearsal
in Grotto hall last night.
This is made necessary. Mr.. Hodge
stated, by the fact that the expense
of putting on the choral concert will
be much higher than the previous
concerts and that, the share of the
society in the membership proceeds
of the Civic Music association will
not meet the expenses; that the
concert will be given in the Strand
theater instead OF in the Capitol.
and that it Is advisable to fill the
theater. However. 1t was stressed
by Mr.. Hodge. the fact that the
society is linked with the Civic
Music association will enable the
fixing OF an unprecedented low
cost for tickets, which is one Of the
objects OF the Civic Music associa-
ton.
Another reason, an official stated
later, was that large part of the
public would be disappointed il de-
MED admission to the choral society
concert. which is regarded as the
climax of local musical endeavor.
II only 500 members Of the music
association were permitted to attend
the choral concert the Strand the
alter would be more than half empty.
With access by the general public
permitted the theatcr will be filled,
it is believed.
The society is to give the SUPER
la,ive choral work. king Olaf" by
Carl Busch, an American composer.
The work is based upon the poem
by Longfellow. An orchestra OF 20
will be employed and artists of dis
tinction have been engaged for the
solo parts.
