The western outpost, shakertown. Ky, is now a sum-

The Business Woman's Week

The spotlight Is being turned on the woman of bust
ness achievement in 1,l0o communities of the United
States this National Business Woman's week and this
modern phenomenon is the serious subject Of thought
by thousands Of her sisters. in terms of honor and of
inspiration.
The accomplishments Of women who have entered the
general business field. not that of mere dressmaking and
activities built around the science Of cooking a good meal,
have produced a situation where it has become a ques-
ton of what is a job? The women have phrased the
question thus: Are there mems jobs and womens jobs
nowadays, or just jobs?
It seems that there are just jobs, so widely have wom-
en- penetrated the field Of industry, business and the
professions. The World war put them there to a great
er degree than any other single factor or influence, and
in 1920 the census revealed 8.500,O 900 women ganfully
employed, while the president of the American Press
association estimates that so rapidly have women swarm
ed into the business world that the coming census will
show $4,000 900 there.
In q statement issued by the national Federation of
Business and Professional Women's clubs it is said that
ten years ago there were but 81 of the 572 occupations
which women had not invaded. Now it is doubtful
whether there are any uninvaded, Ten years ago the
clerical workers led the number of women employed,
there being 1.426;116.
The number of women in public service increased 81
per cent between 1910 and 1920. Equally significant was
the increase of the percentage of the women in trades
by AZ per cent, and Of women in professions by 80 per
cent.
These figures and ratios do not deal with strictly
feminine occupations for they cover such occupations
as architects, landscape gardeners, dentists, designers,
craftsmen, inventors, photographers, technical engineers,
veterinary surgeons, aeronauts, judges, college presidents,
doctors, lawyers, chemists, authors and editors.
The striking feature about the increasing entry of
women into the business and professional field is that
it has not interfered with marriage for a large percent
age of them. Some Of the most successful, with vast
interests under their charge. are wives and mothers.
With this growing activity in the sphere of occupations
and with the right Of the franchise, women are making
themselves an ever-increasing influence in the economic
and social life Of America-yes, of the world, for the
movement Is a worldwide phenomenon. 1t is an amaz-
ing leap forward for the sex from the days of their
pioneers. such as Susan B. Anthony, who set going the
influences which have resulted in this emancipation,
for that is what the entry of women into business and
the professions actually is. Who will predict where it
will end?

THE MILK DIET FOR STOMACH
ULCERS

THE MILK DIET FOR STOMACH
ULCERS
I find that the milk diet Is one Of
the best that can be used to permit
the tnf1amed raw surfaces Of the
ulcer to heal. Solid food Is apt to
prevent healing by scratching off the
healing tissues rs they form. The
milk Is also valuable to act as q sort
OF salve to prevent injury through the
friction Of the stomach churning up-
on itself, and It also serves the pur-
pose Of absorbing the digestive Juices
50 that they cannot work upon the
sore surfaces.
It Is q good plan to use an 8-ounce
glass of milk every hour during the
day and night while you are awake.
The milk should be raw and sweet
and slightly warmed by placing the
glass in q pan Of warm water but not
hot enough to burn the hands. The
milk should be slipped slowly and TAX
en- exactly every hour. No water
should be used in addition. If you
take the milk at irregular periods 1t
will not agree with you, and one suf-
fering from stomach ulcers dares not
be so careless.
Holstein milk should be used, but
II this is not obtainable. it Is better
to remove about half Of this heavy
cream. The raw milk Is better for
this purpose than the pasteurized.
The milk and cream diet which Is
given by many authorities often
brings about serious conditions Of aci-
dosis, and I have had many patients
treated by this method who after
wards developed liver and gall blad-
der troubles because of the excess of
hydrocarbons, and for this reason I
find that the plain milk Is better than
the cream mixture.
In some cases 1t Is advisable to add
half q tablespoonful Of milk of mag
nesia to one glass of milk. This is
advisable in the beginning in cases
where the stomach irritation Is excess
sive. It is better to remain in bed
for at least the first few days while
taking this diet, and to use hot appli-
cations over the region of the stom-
ach several times daily. A large
therapeutic lamp Is best for this pur-

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Skin Tumors

Question: L. II. J. asks: "What.
causes skin tumors, and what is the
best way Of getting rid Of them?"
Answer: Skin turnors are caused
from some faulty growth Of cells lust
under the skin. This is probably due
to some systematic condition and GER
tainly would not occur in q perfectly
healthy person. About the only way
that they can be quickly removed is
through surgery, although they some-
times disappear by themselves with
out treatment.
Gaining Weight
Question: d. H. writes: please tell
me how many calories q day one
should get in ones food in order to
gain weight. I am underweight, and
am trying to improve my appearance
by eating, as 7 am ernaciated looking,
Also, what would cause me to have
fever blisters frequently. with no fever
nor cause for them?"
Answer: It Is impossible for me to
estimate how many Galleries Of food
you would be able to use IN order to
gain weight and still remain healthy.
Such a statement might be given aft
err a careful examination, but q great
deal of experimentation Is necessary
with each case. as q different number
Of calories would have q different eff
feet upon n person than another.
Most people who try to gain weight
through Stuffing on more calorics
only make themselves bilious and
bring on other disorders. The fever
blisters which you have so frequently
show that you are suffering from
over-acidity Of the stomach. This is
usually caused from using bad food
combinations. Have a good diagnosis
made, and get as well as possible, and
your weight will then come to the
normal on any well balanced diet.

The Roll-Top Antiquity

It had never been a very big business, but it had been
moderately prosperous, and it had lasted for so years
md now it was closing its doors.
It's main office was on a side street a little way re-
moved from the main business district. The glass show
windows displayed the stock in trade-leather goods,
harness Of various kinds, queer-looking appliances to
puzzle the casual onlooker, brief cases and straps and so
on.
The fittings were not remarkable. Rather old-fast-
toned, they were: especially the old roll-top desk at the
rear. where the owner, and his father before him, had
sat. to direct the business. The desk probably, had been
Installed. when the place was first opened, half a GEN.
Jury ago. Now the business was being closed out. Bid
ders for the desk probably would be few. Rol-top desks
of that type aren't in much demand now.
Indeed. specializing on the melancholy downfall Of an
honorable old firm, one is tempted to wonder whether
that roll-top desk, preserved unchanged through all the
years of change, might not be rather symbolic.
( To hang on to a roll-top desk through SO years indi-
Gates a sort Of conservatism, a clinging to old customs
yand old ways. But the last couple of decades, in the
business world. have not been good years for the con-
kervative. They have put the business man under the
IRON necessity of keeping abreast Of the times mentally.
Those who failed to do SO have gone under.
This is not the same sort Of world it was a generation
Ego. Developments of a startling nature have come fast.
New inventions and new practices have arisen to pro-
Nounce disaster on any business executive who could
not divorce himself from the old ways.
III The old pace was leisurely and dignified. But now?
8peed is the great word. The airplane, the radio, the
fHeleplloto systens the long-distance telephone network,
Vhe Geographic night letter-these are the insignia Of the
new order. They are the emhlens of a multitude of
changes.
AS a result Of all of this, incalculable changes are TAX
ing place in the business world. Old firms are vanishing,
their holdings gathered up by the long arms Of big cor
porations. Business of a small scale has to step fast and
keep all of its wits about it if it is to survive.

possible that this old desk was a symbol of an inability
to change. an inability to adapt an old-fashoned bust
ness organization and old fashioned business practices to
a new era?
The old ways may have been more pleasant, more
gracious, more hunan-but they are gone, and weep
ing won't bring them back. The rule that the fittest
shall survive was never as memorable as it is in Ameri-
can business today. And the roll-top desk, with all that
1t symbolizes, belongs to a by-gone era.

An Industrial Boil

Nobody actually knows how many people are out Of
employment, but recent RED Thursday" when the COM
,munists of the country staged their widespread demon
strations to inflame the nation against this condition
and to weaken the respect Of the people for government
Of themselves, by themselves and for themselves showed
that it might be well to do something about the situa-
Non other than to crack heads.
In fact, no less a person than President Hoover has
been solioitous in exactly this way about unemployment;
and 1t was remedying Of that condition which he also
had In view in the economic conferences he held at the
white house with captains of industry, finance and COM
merce, following the Wall street speculative debacle.
It was that step on his part which probably helped
debate the communist demonstrations of RED Thurs
day." Obviously, people felt that conditions might be
worse, as in England, Germany and Russia. They also
telt enough confidence in the presidents measures to
look for a turn to the better. probably; anyhow the COM
munst flare-up, in spite Of some clashes with the police
md many arrests and q few broken heads, was classifi-
eble as a dud.
What is the lesson Of it all? One might say that two
perfectly obvious facts stand out at the close Of these
mass meetings and marches Of protest:
The American flag is still flying.
A great many people are still out Of work.
The demonstrations had not the slightest effect on
Uitl1er Of these two facts. The men and women who got
their heads under the police clubs apparently accom-
plished nothing by their labors.
Yet al Of this was not entirely insignificant. The
communists ana tnelr 1oloWerS-thelr dupeS, u you want
to put it that way-faied to advance the cause Of revo-
luton or the cause Of plentiful jobs: but we shall fool
ourselves badly II we assume. for that reason, that the
whole business meant nothing.
It meant, quite plainly, that there is q good deal Of
misery In the land. Shutting our eyes to that fact, or
hying to gloss It over, won't do anyone any good. In
deed, we really owe q vote Of thanks to the radicals who
forged the matter on our attention.
Something Is very wrong when every large city in the
countsy finds thousands Of jobless men parading along
It, streets behind the banners Of Moscow. The machine
has slipped . cog somewhere. American workinsmen are
