third common cause Of poor COM

these cases, where the oil glands of
the skin exude more than the usual
amount OF oil. that the overlise Of face
powders has such q harmful effect.
Women and girls with oily skins should
take pains to avoid greasy, fat food and

Also they should splash It with cold

Ones mental condition affects the
beauty Of the skin very materially.
Happiness Is the best beautifier. Worry
and depression are reflected In q dull,
Sallow skin. Nervousness, irritability
or anger may make the complexion
flushed or blotchy, because such feel

breathing. The expression ito turn
green with jealousy" Is not entirely
fanciful. since negative emotions rob
the skin of its healthy color.
When the skin loses too much Of its
natural oil 1t also loses its transparent
beauty and becomes f1aky and rough.
Sometimes this condition Is due to too
strong . facial soap or to failure to
rinse all the soap of after washing.
Unaccustomed exposure to sun and
wind may also dry the skin too much.
Lack Of suf1cient fats in the diet Is an
other possible cause.
Digestive troubles and constipation
are by far the commonest causes Of
poor complexion, however.

MILADY BEAUTIFUL

The average girl does not realize
how many conditions may affect the
beauty In her complexion. She notices
that on some days her skin Is rosy and
clear, but that on other days it looks
rough and sallow and she has dark
shadows under her eyes. It is often
hard to locate the cause of the change
so that it may be helpful to make a
list of possible causes.

How to Keep an Aquarium
By LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER.

with water from the sea, but in Gov
ernment aquariums salt sea water is
often required. This has to be changed
regularly If the fish keep their vitality,
Just as does the reservoir water used
in home aquariuns.
The fish must be transferred from
most aquariums when the water is
changed. Use q small fish net for
this. Or improvise met" by firmly
sewing q coarse woven net or a piece
Of cheesecloth to q small embroidery
ring. The material should be cut
larger than the ring 50 that it will
cup like q fish net.
Scoop the fish out Of the bowl and
put them into an ordinary one or
wash basin filled with pure water. Re
fill the aquarium and transfer the fish
back to 1t with the net.
When the glass aquarium is empty 1t
should be washed and polished dry.
Use warm water and soap and a soft
wash cloth. Rinse well so that no
trace of soap remains. Then polish
until the glass shines. AS aquariums
are decorative accessories in home,
1t is only when they are absolutely spick
and span, and filled with clear pure
water that they fulfill this function.
It is not necessary to wash the aqua
rum every time the water is changed,
but as often as will keep the glass
bright and shining.

Goiter in Tennessee.

A sample of drinking water from
Nashville contained % parts of iodin
per 1o0, 600, 900 900 parts of water, which
is very low proportion. A Nashville
citizen would have to drink. II my
arithmetic is approximately accurate,
seven barrels of water with each Of his
four meals and a couple of pailsful on
retiring each night, in order to get
enough iodin from the water to keep his
metabolism going.
Western Tennessee is q low coastal
plain some $50 feet above sea level, bor-
dered by alluvial bottom lands along
the Mississippi Middle Tennessee, from
the Tennessee River to the Cumberland
Plateau is first limestone valley rang
ing from TOO to 1000 feet attitudes, and
then an elevated highland verging into
the Appalachian Range in the eastern
part. some of the higher mountains
rising to 5000 feet.
The prevalence of goiter among men
examined for war service was compare
lively low in the Tennessee draft, 25
other States offering material having a
higher goiter incidence than the Ten
nessee candidates showed.
Recent examinations of school chill
dren gave these data: 9,073 white boys.
11,120 white girls, 1.739 colored boys
and 3,196 colored girls. attending senior
and junior high schools and upper
grades Of grammar schools In 40 differ
ent localities, presented a total Of 4,876
golfers, approximately one-fifth Of the
IS, 900 children examined. Approx
mately one-tenth of the white boys and
one fourth of the white girls had goiter.
Approximately one-eighth of the colored
boys and one-third Of the colored girls
had goiter.
OF course in nearly all cases the goiter
was simple goiter and in most of them
1t would scarcely be noticed except by
medical examination. There seemed to
be more goiter in the eastern mountain
Gus section than in the western low
land.
No relationship was indicated between
the prevalence Of goiter and the water
supply. In Tennessee there is slightly
more goiter among people who drink
chlorinated water than among those
who drink unchlorinated water In Ore
gon, however, there Is slightly more
goiter among people who do not drink
chlorinated water than among those who
drink chlorinated water. This surely
proves that chlorination of public water
supplies has nothing to do with goiter.
Anyway, there Is nothing but fancy or
conjecture to support the notion that
chlorination Of the water Is responsible
for goiter.
The use Of iodized salt in place of
ordinary salt is quite general in Tennes-
see. In Michigan iodized salt has ap-
parently greatly decreased the preva-
lence of goiter in localities where goiter
had prevailed heavily before the intro
duction of iodized salt Kimball in this
country and Silberschmidt In Switzer-
land, the very foremost authorities on
the subject, are both convinced that
| the general use Of iodized salt in place
of ordinary salt for cooking and table
purposes, is advisable, and will not cause
or aggravate trouble even In cases of
exophthalmic goiter or hyperthyroidism

Queen of the slumbrous Summer air,
bright prima donna of the garden
galaxy. the poppy now is in her prime,
and while she endures all other flowers
are out of tune, and made to look
inspid things. One can hardly write
Of poppy without using the weary
adjective Haunting" Yet for all the
poppy's lordly grace and fragrant color,
1t always seems to me fragile thing,
really, delicate of petal, swift to fade
when picked, brief of glory.
Leaving aside the plume poppy, which
is not a real poppy, where are chiefly
In our gardens the great Oriental poppy,
the dainty shimmering Iceland poppy,
and the jaunty, common little scarlet
poppies of which the Shirley poppies
are a race. and last Of all the gorgeous

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.
Scarlet Fever.

As the mother of girl and boy aged
and 8, / am worried about scarlet
fever outbreak in the schools. Several
doctors here favor the use of serum to
immunize children against scarlet fever;
others are opposed to it. as they think
1t affects the glandular system. We
should value your opinion on the use
of serums for immuniZation against
diphtheria and scarlet fever and typhoid
fever.-MrS. H. M. w.
Answer-Every child at 2 years of
age ought to have the benefit OF the
Schick test for susceptibility to dipn-
iberia and If the test shows the child
is susceptible, then the toXin-antitoxin
immunization. Surely 1t is the parents
duty to make sure the child is protected
against diphtheria before the child en-
ters school. The scarlet fever tmmunl-
Zation is not yet on such soundly
established footing, though there 1s no
good reason to imagine 1t does any
harm to the glandular system, even II II
fails to render the child immune TO
scarlet fever should give 1t to my
children If my doctor advised 1t. I'M
munization against typhoid Is almost
absolutely effective and is always ad-
visable where there is possible exposure.
How to Breathe.
What is the proper method of breath
ing? Particularly, is it correct to exhale
through the mouth or nose?-R. B.
Answer-Normally inhale and exhale
through the nose. During sustained
effort open the mouth and breathe
through both the nose and the mouth.

To soften water for toilet use,
keep a lump Of rough fullers'
earth in your pitcher, empty it

A few drops Of oil of lavender

Heavy
Belt Sought
for Walker
Kearns to Send Mickey
After Another Title;
Chances Good.
BY BERT DEMBY
United Press STAFF Correspondent


CHICAGO, Nov. 13.-Jack Kearns
again is showing foresightedness
by sending Mickey Walker after the
light heavyweight title which Tom
my Loughran left vacant. Kearns
has instructed Nate Lewis, who
makes matches for the Chicago sta
dunn, to get all leading 175-pounders
to meet Walker at ANY price"
Right now Mickey is middleweight
champion and he recently demon
strated that there is no doubt
about his 160-pound supremacy. by
defeating Ace Hudkins, the only
logical contender,s on the Pacific
coast in title match.
Too. Mickey has shown that he
can give away weight and win.
Never weighing more than 167
pounds, he has knocked out Armand
Emanuel and Mike McTigue and
has beaten other good 175-pound
fighters.
Besides that, Walesr fought
Tommy Loughran, then the light
heavyweight champion, a whale of
a fight for Loughran's title. So close
was the battle that the referee gave
the fight to Walker while the two
judges decreed that Loughran's box
ing ability entitled him to the de-
ciSion.
