- 1. Would it be proper for me
to give a gift to a boy friend Of
mine on his birthday? He gave
me a beautiful birthday and
Christmas present.
2. He has invited me to a college
prom" but as the school is quite
a distance from this city I will
have to stay overnight. Would
this be proper without taking a
chaperon with me?
I am mostly known as 1.-THE Life
Of Every Party" but I can be
that way or just the opposite.
How would you advise me to act
at the prom?
BROWN EYES.
DROWN EYES: Yes, 1t would be
~ proper. However. 1t would not
be in good taste to give a very ex.
pensive gift. 2. 1t would be best tc
have a chaperon, unless you are to
stay somewhere where you will be
~chaperoned. 5. Act naturally. Don't
try to make yourself conspicuous
but enjoy yourself and act in such
a manner that the young man will
be proud Of you.

The Shadow Children Pay a
Surprise Visit 10 a Chinese
Mandarin.

~ NE day Mil. Flor, Hand, Yam
q and Knarf-the five little
shadow-children with the
turned about names-were sitting on
the edge Of a teacup, talking about
where they would like to 60.
Il wish We could go to Algeria"
said Yam.

right to the top OF the South
Pole" added Flor. who being Nils
twin always agreed with him.
Its too cold there. / think wa
ought to go to"
to China!" exclaimed Knarf,
suddenly falling off the teacup in
his excitement. He dropped into a
Chinese plate that was lying on the
table. Then a very curious thing
happened. He disappeared. Now. to
disappear all at once in a Chinese
plate is extraordinary even for a
shadow-child. With a cry Of surprise
Mil, Flor, Hand and Yam sprang
down off the cup and looked down
into the plate. 1t was light blue and
in the centre was a lovely Chinese
garden with flowers and grass and q
little river with a bridge over it and
a house and cherry trees in blossom.
But no trace of Knarf did they see.
They leaned over the plate and
looked and looked. Then suddenly
Yam, who was leaning over farther
than the rest. toppled in. Then she,
too, disappeared, although not before
the others saw a tiny dark speck roll
swiftly down the road, over the hill
and into the little house.
What ought we to do?" asked
Hand anxiously. Flor looked puzzled.
Mi looked eve more puzzled.

What in the world are these?
They are the spasms or localized pains which
follow abuse of the muscles. One example is
the condition called writers cramp."
Telegraph operators, piano players, dress
makers, typists are liable to these symptoms. In
any occupation where long continued, monoto-
nous muscular efforts are required in the work
one of these ailments may appear.
Persons who have good health are not liable
to have such trouble. Nervous people-what we
call "neurotic'' persons-are more likely to suf-
fer these attacks.
The onset of writer's cramp is marked by
dull ache or tired feeling in the wrist and hand.
Then there is a spasm of marked contraction of
the muscles of the arm and wrist.
There will probably be trembling Of the hand
and fingers. All the SYMPTOMS are made very

make them much worse.
The cure is accomplished by pro
longed rest. Nothing else will do
0 than to give temporary relief.
Massage. baking, out-of-door life, lots
of rest and sleep. and upbuilding Of
the general health VIII do wonders.
But rest or change Of work is essen
tial.
l wish we could get people to take
care of themselves. OF course our
social system is SO defective that
thousands of men and women are
forced to work long hours, under
evil conditions. The bread and but
ter problem makes it necessary to
work hour after hour, and, in con
sequence, the nervous system cracks
or breaks.
When we get wiser as a people
end show better sense as individuals,
the ocCupational neurosiS will dis
appear. But alas, that joyful day is
not here. 1t will come, but, in the
meantime, we must do the best we
a with those who suffer the ef-
fects of overwork and overworry.
Change Of work is play" is IN
old saying and a true me-. Those
unfortunate persons who have a ten
dency to such cramps as / have
described, should keep this saying
in mind. Frequent periods Of change
in muscular effort Will help to pre-
vent the onset Of this trouble.

Perfect nourishment Of the body
will prevent and help to cure the
ailment. Foods must be well selected.
The green vegetables and other
vitamin carrying foods are impor-
tant.
An ounce Of prevention Is worth a
pound OF cure Why don't we keep
this in mind? IF we did, the doctors
would be out Of business. Too many
OF their patients are seeking relief
because OF the violation Of Natures

In order to give the city engineer
and city attorney more time to
check over a petition filed favoring
Warrenite type of paving, the city
council did not award contract
last night for the paving of District
No. and deferred action until to-
night.
The Warrenite petition was plac-
ed in circulation here by Schmidt
& Hitchcock who paved District No.
l with concrete and district No.
with bitulithic.

right and it may not" it was stated
last night by City Engineer George
Cowdery, following the council
meeting. There are several sigma
lures on the petition conflicting
with the record title as shown on

In addition to the Warrenite Pc
tition containing a list of property
owners favoring the Warrenite type
of paving, another group petitioned
the council for asphaltic pavement
as offered by the Hazard Contract
ing Company of San Diego. Both
Warrenite and the Hazard type are
of the same general character o1
black paving, the Warrenite being
patented process and the othel
unpatented. The Hazard bid fol
black is lower than that of Schmid

in addition offers a $4,000 bond al
a guarantee against defects il

of the asphalt offered by them.
