DY TURNS. boisterous. flaming. angry. gentle, demure, soft,
sweet and glorious, that is the month Of March and also
the description that accurately applies to many lovely
women. Haven't you met them, those mercurial creatures who
hve 2 whole lifetime in a few moments and run the gamut Of the
emotions before you can catch your breath?
You know, they are awfuly trying to Master Cupid, these
lovely changeabe creatures who love, quarrel, then make up and
love again all in a single day. He who loves such a capricious
goddess often turns to Cupid in despair, but there is little that
the little God Of Love can do, for ~truthfuly, he, himself, is
rather at a loss about the lovely lady who laughs, cries, purrs and
then sometimes even screams, Just as the winds of March often
turn from a gentle zephyr to a snarling angry gust before which
the tallest trees must bow. But breeze or cyclone, it will pass,
that much il comfort And so, too, with the lovely lady, her
March moods also abate and the sunshine of her smile over
shadows the frown OF her anger or discomfort

4 little thought and care.
I've often mentioned the value to be derived
by the daily use Of q cuticle salve or ointment
and once again I want to stress the Importance
Of this.
Nothing 50 rehnes the cuticle around the nails
as the daily use Of an oil or finishing cream made
especially for this purpose. The cuticle is apt to
dry out and that is what causes it to become
rough and ragged. By keeping the cuticle well
oiled or nourished such beauty troubles are
eliminated.
1t is cutting and not the drying out Of the
oils that causes the cuticle 70 become thick and
20 the manicure scissors should be used only for
shipping of those ragged bits of skin that simply
have to be removed. Even coarse cuticls can be

People are disturbed because the doctors tell
them they have a pressure Of 215 or go, on
whatever it may be. But the fact is blood
pressure in and Of itself is Of little consequences.
What is of real importance is the underlying
condition of health.
If a person finds out he has high blood
pressure the first thing TO do is to make a sur
vey of the general health. Find out If there is
some trouble, even though it is not seemingly
important. That very trouble may have a posi-
bic effect upon the pressure. Indeed, almost
any condition of i'll health may have this as one
Of its symptoms. Bad teeth or tonsils may pro-
duce it.
Many cases Of high blood pressure are the
result of improper kidney action. An involve
