QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Pale Complexion

past 20 years. During the summer ]

ion Il red, but in the course OF only q
few days I Immediately clear up and
become pale again"
Answer: Some people have natur-
ally pale compilations, which are very
difficult to correct. You should be
sure to obtain plenty Of the raw
green vegetables in order to provide
mineral elements. Also, use daily
calisthenic exercises which will Inn
prove your circulation. Massage Of
the face and application with hot
water followed with ice may also be
useful.
Question: =. H. asks: care ba-
nanas constipating? Il II best to
scrape off Ill the fuzzy coating Of
the banana. or Is that just someone's
idea?"
Answer: Bananas may Be consid-
cred slightly constipating O. they do
not contain much fibre. It Il not
necessary to scrape them.
Pulp Stones
Question: @. d. asks: "What
causes, and Is there any cure for pulp
stones Of the teeth?"
Answer: Pulp stones are usually
caused by poor calcium metabolism,
usually from q lack Of vitamin 9 in
the diet. I would suggest that you
try an orange juice fast for about 10
days as It may assist In some slight
absorption Of the stones. II they are
well formed, however. It may be nee
essary to either have the teeth ex-
tracted or have the pulp removed
from the teeth, Il It seems advisable
to save the teeth. Any irritation such
as tartar accumulation. ETC., should be
removed.

the use Of incense In churches. Many
perfumes are known to have the ef-
feet Of stirring up the wooing instinct.
The fragrance Of flowers Is not for
the purpose Of pleasing Or displeasing
man. It Is more definitely designed
to please the butterfly, the moth, or
the bee which is going to cross-fer-
tilise the blossoms. It Is said that
there are 20 many romances in the
spr1agtime because Of the many frag-
rant odorS In the air at that time.
Male butterflies are said 70 have q
peculiar perfume which Il said to
attract the female. Among human
beings. this seems to be reversed for
although most men have Q better
sense Of smell than most women. Il
Is the women who use most OF the
perfume.
There are two important smells
which are known as racial smells.
One OF these Il smell from tho wood
tire, another Is the smell Of roasting
or soaring meat. These two odors
have q greater appeal to all men 1t
al times than that Of any other odor.
Although man has invented count-
less devices for aiding his sense or.
gsns, such Is the sight and hearing,
he has failed to make anythine
which win intensity his ability to
smell. It IL very interesting to OBJ
serve. however. that many patients,
while undergoing . fasting and
cleansing regimen, will notice q re-
newed sensitiveness with the sense Of
smell, and I have seen Z number Of
patients who. before q fasting regimen
were entirely devoid Of this sense,
afterwards experience q great delight
In testing on odor from another

unappfeciated by most Of us.

The COurtenay Mystery

There was an unfortunate Jump at conclusions In the
Courtenay bank tragedy. Regarding the shooting Of
Elmer Bunkowske as the result Of a bandit hold-up was
the surcst way to turn the tragedy into a permanent
mystery If it were not a hold-up. but, for instance. q local
crime.
With everybody thinking of the killing of Bunkowske
as the work of a bandit, there would be no danger of the
real slayer being suspected II the crime was Of home COM
mission.
Sherlock Holmes would not have gone about the solu-
ton In the way the stutsman authorities did. He would
not have assumed to the exclusion of all other circum-
stances and possibilities that this was a bank hold-up.
In a mystery such as this all possible theories must
be assumed and worked over. Elimination is q great
crime detector. Detectives can thus narrow down the
circle Of suspicion. It is to be regretted that no trained
detective was at once put on the crime. Here Is q muir
der mystery that easily might grow to national interest
and be used as the clothes-horse on which to hang a
snappy movie mystery.
Maybe this is a bandit murder. But It could be a 1azz
murder or a fool tragedy. Two other shootings with the
elements Of foolishness have cropped out on the heels
of the killing of Bunkowskc.
Above oil 1t is a murder which should be solved and
the perpctrator quickly brought to justice.
The broad general rule Is that the girl who looks most
astonished when her Romeo finally proposes is the one
who had it figured out a year ago what she would wear
at the church.

with the new governments of Ar

Envoy Due Here
One of the immediate results Of
the recognition is expected to be
the appointment Of an ambassa-
dor of the Argentine republic to
this country. The post has been
vacant nearly two years.
Because of the wealth and i'm.
portance of Argentina, as well as
the anti-American spirit which
flourished under the regime of the
deposed President Irigoyen, State
Department officials are following
developments there closely. !

American bankers, it is .re-t
ported, will send an unofficial
committee to Buenos Aires to ex-
anime the financial situation of
the republic. The provisional
president, Jose Uriburu, has
charged the Irigoyen government
with mismanagement and graft
