not well understood. In spite
Of the splendid and even magi-
cal results of this treatment
introduced five years ago),
and in spite of the wide pub
licity that treatment received
in the press, many people who
have the disease do not know
the details Of the new treat
ment. Since the disease can
be nearly always controlled by
this method, and in its absence
or neglect is progressively de-
generating, information about
it should be made public fire.
quently.
The key to the problem was
discovered by two Boston ply
sicians, Drs. Minot and Murphy.
It consists in eating liver.
How much? Two hundred
fifty grams Of raw, or about
half pound Of cooked liver.
How often? Once a day.
For how long? AS long as
you live.
How long does it take for
Improvement to begin? About
10 days.
How do you know when you
are better? The color Of the
skin becomes healthy, the lips

"But I don't like liver. In

eyes which obviously had looked
on this world even fewer years
than he himself had. Between
the eyes was a little white nose,
just the least bit tilted, and he
had q confused impression Of

So confused, indeed, was his

"Yes?" she prompted, still
smiling and obviously enjoying
his discontinue. And Jack,
realizing the sorry figure he
was cutting, waded right In.

fectly frank with you. I had ex.
pected that you might want
someone to take you to q show
or something and it was just
a part Of the days work with
me. But now I hope you'll be-
neve me when I say that I
can't think Of anything that
would be more pleasant than
to do just that. I hope you w1u'
please. Won't you-pleaSe?"
For a moment more she re-
garded him and then the smile
in her eyes spread to her lips.
"You put 1t very nicely" she
said. "And, to be frank with
you In turn, I was on my way
to dinner, and If you'll promise
not to talk shop I'll be glad to
go with you."
They didn't talk shop. They
talked Of a thousand and one
things during dinner, during
the intermiSSionS in the show
which followed and, later, over
the table Of q night club.
They talked Of the things
which q man and . girl do talk
about when they have just met
and each is beginning to realize
why, content to be together.
The little things which make
no sense and can never be
written down, things which are
forgotten as soon as they are
spoken, and yet, somehow, are
always remembered.
"I'll see you tomorrow, I
hope" said Jack when he left
her at her hotel.
Maybe" she answered.
He did see her the next day,
but not as he had expected.
She came into the office shortly
before noon and an older
woman was with her. Jack
stood up.

do to make her visit pleasant"
Exactly" said Mr.. Dwyer.

from the cashier"
At $50 that evening Jack
approached the desk Of the
hotel in which Amy Holworthy
was staying. It wasn't until
then that he realized he didn't
know whether she was mar
ried. He took a chance, how
ever, and asked for Miss"
Holworthy.
There she Is now," answered
the desk clerk. Jack turned and
saw a girl walking toward him
from the elevator. He advanced
to meet her.

Jack felt his face grow fiery

sBut I am" she answered.
I'm Miss Amy Holworthy.
My mother Is Mrs. Holworthy.
This is the first time she has
brought me on one Of her trips,
and she says it's the last time,
because she had to go to a
show by herself last night.
She says I ran away and left
her and that you are to blame
and that she's going to tell
Mr.. Dwyer, and
Don't pay any attention to
her, Mr.. Carson" the mother
interrupted. "She knew full
well you were calling for me,
and she didn't tell you Of your
mistake. Maybe she'll tell you
why"
Mrs. Holworthy moved on
into Mr.. Dryers office, and
Jack, regaining his compoSure,
said to Amy: "You are coming

to ask if there's anything we
could do to make your visit
comfortable"
Jack had intended to say
more but, somehow, he didn't
find 1t as easy as he had ex-
pected. To begin with, Miss
Holworthy differed in every de-
tail from his preconceived idea
of what she would look like.
He had mentally pictured a
brisk, efficient woman, in her
forties, perhaps, a modern busi-
ness woman with no trace Of
sentiment or sex about her.

"Mr. Dwyer would like to see
you, Mr.. Carson"
Jack Carson got UP from his
desk and followed the secretary
into the office of the head Of
the firm.
"Sit down. Carson" said Mr..
Dwyer. There's something I'd
like you to do for us. It's o
little unusual, but I think you
can handle it. You've heard Of
Amy Holworthy, haven't you?"
Jack nodded his head in as
sent. "I've heard of her." he
said. "She's one of our best
customers, isn't she?"
"That's right" answered Mr..
Dwyer. "And a fine woman,
too. She has a chain Of small
department stores in the Middle
West and does nearly all the
buying herself. She's in town
now and Is coming in tomor-

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
care a good deal about .
girl-she's good natured, anus
ing and full Of fine qualities.
But-and it's a terrible but
she is messy. Whatever you
call the frills women wear
about their necks, those IN
her care are never quite fresh.
And sometimes it seems to me
that she depends more on per.
fume than on soap. When !
60 to see her her flat is never
quite tidy-papers strewn about,
the furniture has a greasy look
and things are dusty. Don't
think I'm a carping critic-1'm
none too neat myself-but the
prospect of one untidy person
married to another Is a serious
question. BALDWIN.
Yours is a very delicate prob
lem and will require the greatest
tact, If it can be handled at
all. Why don't you bring up
the subject Of your own I1n-
tidiness and tell her it has
been a severe handicap. Then
ask her If she finds it difficult
to keep her belongings in order.
Some messy, untidy people are
wholly unaware Of their own
shortcomings, and, its a Ques-
ton, in my min6, If you'd be
happy with this type Of girl in
spite Of her excellent qualities.
The Family IL Always There
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
A young man whom I met ct
a party comes to see me once o
week. My family seems to like
him and always invites him to
dinner. He's never told me he
cares for me, but I know he
does by the way he looks at me.
We never get a chance to be
alone because he always offers
to help mother with the dishes
and she always accepts. Then
father takes him away and they
play checkers until 10:30 and
I'm not allowed to let my
dates" stay later than that.
The family never leaves the
room till he goes so I never
manage to kiss him goodnight,
or get q chance to let him know
I love Nm.
How can we manage? He's
25 and I'm %. D.
Families do the kind Of thing
you tell me Of, and never know
they are in the way, and are q

Election Reforms

Citizens who still cling to the idea that seH-goY-
eminent is possible will do well to carefully scrutl-
nze candidates for the state legislature and secure
advance information as to what is to be expected IN
the way Of reforms of election laws.
Fraud at the present time, is safe. 1t must be
recalled in shame that the most open frauds In the
last primaries and they were not confined TO one
party have gone unpublished.
Public officials seem to be either incompetent or
unwilling TO deal with this form Of treason.
Every fraud can be traced to that system Of nam
ing election officials in precincts which gives all the
power to the political organizations.
This makes those organizations self-perpetuating.
The stub pencil becomes more powerful than the live
voter. Public sentiment be overthrown after the
polls are closed.
1t is about as safe to steal an election or pri-
mary as it is to ride to the voting place in an auto
mobile.
Of course. some progress could be made by substi-
tutng vigorous and competent officials for those who
have shown utter incapacy to deal with such crimes
But even more can be gained if a concerted drive
is made by voters of both parties to so change the
election laws as to provide for registration Of voters
and the selection of officials other basis than
partisan loyalty

DAILY HEALTH SERVICE

BY this is meant the fact that
when the finger is pushed against
the skin, depression or pitting is
produced, which remains for some
time after the pressure has been
removed. The tissues feel distinctly
doughty.
If the condition of eczema has
persisted for many months, the
skin is thickened and pits with
difficulty.
Swelling of various portions of
the body due to accumulation of
water may be due to a variety of
causes. For instance, if the heart
is unable to pump the blood to the
ends of the blood vessels and back
again to the heart, fluid begins to
accumulate in the lower part of
the body.
If the person has a job like that

compels him or her to be on her

be found edematous. If the per-
