VAGUE PHONE CLUE
 ID MISSING GIRL
Montreal Man Tells Of S0bbing
 Voice On His Wire

Montreal. que. March 3o P-A wrong telephone connection and a sobbinc sirlish appeal "Come and get me. mot her" today constituted the vague and only clue unearthed after q week of frantic search for year-old Barbara Pitcher. McGill university student and daughter of a prominent Westmount family.
 Police said that about 9 o'clock the night of March 2l. when Miss Pitcher disappeared, the telephone rang in the house of II. W. K. Hale. heard a sobbnG voice evidently that of young girl, saying Come and get me, mother" Mrs. Hale's daueh- ter at the time vas a patient in the Montreal General hospital and thinking it was she. Mrs. Hale ask ed eAcitedly. Where are you?'
 Il don't know where l am. but come and get me, oh, come and get me-" came hysterically over the phone. There the telephone connec- ton was lost.
 Hale was told by the hospital that it could not possibly have been his da urhtor who teicphoned. The next morning. when it became known that Barbara Pitcher Was missing, he communicated with her family The information was withheld by the police until yesterday
 The Pitcher telephone number Is Westmount 21Sl and that of the Hale residence Westmount 4l2S. po- lice believe the slight similarity in numbers might have resulted in a wrong connection.

May One Use DUN Name in Bust

BY THE COUNSELLOR.

Harry Benson conducted the business
OF storage and moving for 20 years.
The business was then sold to Charles
Barker, who paid q large consideration
for the privilege of using the trade
name of Benson Storage" which car
ried with it valuable good WILL
Harry Benson's brother, c. T. Ben
son, was also in the storage business.
AS result of the similarity in names
there arose mail and telephone con-
fusion and in a number of instances
patronage intended for one went to the
other. To add to the confusion, c. T.
Benson finally removed his Office to a
place that was but few blocks away
from the location of Barker, who had
continued, after acquiring the business,
to widely advertise the trade-name of
Benson Storage"
Barker, feeling that c. r. Benson
was taking undue advantage by moving
so closely to him, filed a bill in equity
alleging unfair BUSINESS competition.
Determining that G. r. Benson was
not using any artifice to mislead the
public, the court, in a decision handed
down recently, dismissed Barker's bill
of complaint, upholding the following
general rule:
Every man, in the absence of self
imposed restrictions, has the absolute
right to use his own name in his own
business, even though he may thereby
interfere and injure the business OF
another bearing the same name, pro-
vided he does not resort to any artifice
or do any act calculated to mislead the
public as TO the identity of the estab-
lishmentS."

Mechanical Massage.

This is the age of machinery. Me-
chanical devices have invaded every
field of work. including those of the
physical culturiSt and the cosmetician.
Some of these beauty aids, like the large
mechanical vibrators, are expensive,
motor-driven affairs; others, like the
patter, are very simple and are oper-
ated by hand.
All devices of this sort, however, have
something in common. That is, they
are substitutes for hand massage. Those
of us who cannot obtain the services OF
a maSSeuse now have the opportunity
to massage ourselves with the help of
rubber rollers, suction cups, electric
vibrators, etc. Today I am going to
describe some homemade massage I'M
plementS that / hope will make this
type of beauty treatment easier for my
readers.
When milady undertakes to massage
her own face, there is necessarily a
certain amount of nervous tension in
her fingers and face, which, of course,
makes it impossible for her to relax
as she should. This element is lessened
when a massaging device is held and
operated in one hand.
The patter is perhaps the best known
example of mechanical massage. It
may be made by stuffing large velour
powder puff with cotton and attach
ing it firmly to the end of slender.
flexible rod or whalebone from corset.
A gentle tapping massage with the pat
ter is especially good for sallow, wrin-
killed. skins. If used vigorously. it helps
reduce double chins and overfat cheeks.
Patting massage brings the blood to
pale cheeks and improves the muscular
tone of the face. A roller with soft
rubber surface and convenient handle
is good for massaging fieshy faces and

ful If she could do nearly so WELL
Living is only cheaper abroad for
those willing to adopt lower standards.
The one Saving-and it is an appreci-
able one-iS rent. The price of really
comfortable and handsome home abroad
is the most attractive inducement.
Contrary to popular opinion, Ameri-
can women have in their shops the
finest and most reasonably priced
clothes and accessories in the world.
Food, the other essential. is far better
In this country, Our refrigerator cars
and other Improvements supply us at
moderate cost with food that is in the
luxury class in Europe
We refer to beef, pork, fish, fruit and
many vegetables. Your last years
menus would cost considerably more
than you paid for them il you had
marketed for them in Europe. Automo-
biles here are cheaper and better made:
gasoline sells at a fraction of its for
eign cost; amuSementS are superior in
this country, and generally we are in a
better condition. ~
Assuming you wished to live on the
same scale as you do in this country and
that you would have to earn your own
income, you could not live cheaper
abroad. The difference in your earning
power would Offset the difference in
rent, and despite the tales of tourists
the dollar buys most at home and is

stimulate and make you rise to the
occasion. 7 doubt If most of us could
get along without 1t.
Let us assume that, like most writ
ers, like to write. I am interested in
the pursuit. But I need the stimula-
ton of having to get the things done
on time. I'd like to have more time
for some things I must do, and am
convinced that I could do them better
in a more leisurely fashion. Perhaps,
however, shouldn't do many of them
at all If hadn't assumed the obliga-
ton. keep myself at work by means
of a complicated set of motives, among
which meeting my bills is a promi-
nent one. Looking back over the
years feel that could have done bet
ter with less of this pressure, and 1t
may be that you feel so, too. 1t may be
that we are both mistaken.
The next but" is that those with
most leisure. which means relief from
pressure, don't seem to accomplish
more and are neither filter nor hap
pier than the workers under pressure.
But land Of this but" / am strongly
convinced everybody should carry
within himself enough good motives
for working to keep going when and If
the pressure is relieved. Many men
are afraid to retire, to lose any Of the
motives that kept them going all along.
They are afraid they'll just rust away.
That should. not be so. Leisure should
be the opportunity to work in your own
way, at your own pace, at what you
most want to do.

sat there pretended to be making out
shopping list or something of the
sort, while as matter of fact I made
notes of the ensembles of all the women
who passed by
Women in small brimless hats,
women with brimmed hats. women with
trimming on their hats and women
with hats trimmed only with a metal
ornament-women in fur coatS-short
Or long-women in suits-women in
cloth coats with fur and without
women in oxfords and women in
strapped pumps-women in the new
high Russian boots that some of the
shops are showing, low heels, high heels,
dark stockings, light stockingS-they
all traipsed by. But from it all one
very definite type stood out-the wom-
an in cloth coat trimmed with. fur,
in a felt or silk hat trimmed with a
single metal or jeweled ornament, me-
dunn sized, inconspicuous purse, sheer
stockings, strap pumps with high heels,
and pearl necklace.
And the interesting thing about it
though here Lily might not agree
With me-waS that the women that thus
conformed to the type were the women
who seemed best dressed.

It's a rather discouraging thought
that most Of us keep going through the
pressure of having to earn a living. No
work, no pay; less income, less comfort,
and then the dread of the rainy day and
the uncertain future. How far would
it be safe to relieve that pressure and
still find people eager enough to work
to keep the work of the world going?
Unquestionably, in the course Of
working for livelihood you develop
other interests that sustain you at your
Job: moreover, other motives combine
with the meal ticket. You get interested
in the pursuit and the game you are
playing; you are competing and like to
win; you aim at power, reputation, So
cial position. Then there is pride. Hav-
ing done little things well, you want to
do big things better. The joy of pursuit
and success keeps you going long after
the needs of life are provided: equally
there are all sorts of standards of lux
urious living and you climb from one
to another. Least of all do you want to
drop back from a higher to lower
standard of living.
All these motives in moderation help
the cause of mental fitness; perhaps
of happiness also. We are happier
when occupied. But there are many
butts on both sides. That. zoo much
and too constant pressure is bad for
fitness and happiness alike Is clear
enough: though the capacity to work
under pressure is a highly desirable
quality. The need motive and the
pressure motive should not dominate;
in moderation they may help. They

For Reducing Fat in Spots.

Miss N.-Such cases, as yours are
puzzling. I don't know why the fat
should chose some particular location
to deposit ITSELF Some physicians be-
lieve that where the fat has a dispose
ton to settle in certain localities, espe-
cially in the hips mad legs. there may be
a disturbance of the pituitary gland.
Have you ever been to physician who
lspecializes III internal medicine? He
might be able to help you.
Meanwhile, the vibratory machine
you have purchased may help you.
Keep it up faithfully every day, but
don't expect to see results for three
months or perhaps longer. Then you
ought to do some rolling exercises-lie
on your back and roll over on your face,
then back again; lie on the side and do
"a lot of kicking exercises; the scissors
movement, kicking back and forth, etc.
You have some dietetic sin which
you must ferret out and eliminate en-
tirely. Remember you are tiny and you
never can eat literally. If you gain, 1t
shows you are eating more than you
need, always.
You wanted to know how you could
lose in measurements and still gain in
weight. Muscle tissue is heavier than
fat tissue and takes up less space. That
is the answer to that question.
"Is yeast fattening?-L."
Yeast is high in the allti-neuritic and
appetite stimulating vitamn B. If the
Diet does not contain sufficient foods
containing vitamin B, the addition OF
