In making French dressing for salad,
many persons prefer lemon Juice to
vinegar. and to some persons 1t is more
wholesome. BY way of variety 1t is
worth trying especially when the dress
ing Is to be used with a fish salad. A
few drops of lemon juice add much

addition Of little fresh lemon juice

You will find, too, that many fruit
desserts are improved by the addition
of little lemon. Prune and fig desserts
are among them and toward the end
of the season apples are very much
improved if cooked with little lemon.
When you bake bananas, lemon juice
prevents them from tasting insipid.
Almost all made fish dishes call for
lemon and broiled fish needs a garnish
of lemon quarters. Sweetbreads and
very often veal dishes are improved
with lemon juice.
There is always use for a lemon in

when you want to get the juice of
a lemon you may resort to the old

Mules for Bridge Wear

just the thing for what is called
bridge" wear.
Bridge footgear Is nothing in the
world but mules, made in rich colors
that in no way suggest the bed room
Rich puppies, reds blue, shiny black
gold and silver abound And with them
when you are hostess at bridge party,
you wear pajarnas, OF course.
Most of the new out-of-the- boudoir
mules have aristocratic high heels, are
unusual in their cut and decoration and
as easy to slip into as the proverbial
old shoe.
The same mules are quite suitable to
intimate dinners at home. The well
gowned hostess this Winter will have
at least one pair of rather sumptuous
pajamas with wide trousers that sug-
gest skirts, and with them mules are
much more appropriate footgear than
evening slippers.
If you have only one pair, gleam-
ing black and gold or silver ones are
probably the most satisfactory, though
there is no reason why you shouldn't
indulge in CLASSY scarlet, bright green,
penetrating blue or any other gay color
you like.

wears quiet footwear on the street, at

as individual as you please.
A group of the new bridge and din
ner mules show varied designs. Some
have their toes free, to show of gold or
silver stockings you may wear with
them. Others have quaint high tips,
others unusual strappings:
A pair of royal blue and silver mules
uses glossy kid for the mules proper,
an openwork strap model, with two
bands of the block worked in silver in
T-stran running up to hold the bands
! in place and a third band fastens the
heel in place. Comfortable, very chic,
very new.
Wonderful mules for either blue

gray suit with blue trim.
For a modern miss there is scarlet
and gold pair of mules that Is quaint
| yet modern. 1t has a naring, nlgn-
pointed vamp which reaches up the IN
step almost to ankle helgnt. 1hAS
vamp is striped in gold.
A smart black and white model has
only saddle of woven black and white
| patent leather and soft kid, square
sole at the toe and an unusual ankle
strap that goes over the heel. Inc mule

A soft crepe de chine mule Is made
OF gold-colored silk with rich inlay
of brown suede. 1t has no toe, bui
otherwise looks just like a smart T-strap
dancing slipper, for 1t has ankle strap

Last, but not least, we should note
the white satin and black velvet mule

"a second result of these ter
rifle temperatures is that radia-

will be enormously intense and

These ether waves seek to

the star like a great wind, but
on their way they encounter the

The result is an outward

One Of the great triumphs or
modern astronomy is the ex-
planation of what goes on in
the interior of a star. 1t is i'm
possible to get into the interior
of aNStar; it has not even been
found feasible to penetrate very
deep into the interior Of the
earth.
But the new theories regard
ing the constitution Of the atom
have thrown a flood of light
upon the problem of what is
occurring on the inside of these
huge celestial machines called
stars.
The newer theories have
established some fundamental
facts regarding radiation. It is
believed that the atom is some
thing like a miniature solar sys-
tenn, with electrons revolving
with extreme rapidity in oroital
motion round a central nucleus.
The number Of these cleo
irons has wide variation, from
/ in the case of hydrogen to 81
in the case of uranium.
1t used 70 be beleved that
light and other radiation were
emitted by the electron as it
traverSed its own orbit.
But minute and exhaustive
spectroScopic inVe t G tions
demonstrate that radiation IS
given out only in the case where
there is q change in energy.
This occurs when an electron
changes orbits. or, AS we may
say. iumpS from one particular
orbit to another. When it gains
an excess of energy by the
transfer radiation is produced.
This radiation may be identified
in various wayS-as heat, X-ray
radiation, or even as light which
is visible to the naked eye.
Recent discoveries regarding
the happiness in the interior Of
a star have been made through
the application of general prin.
ciples, both mathematical and
physical. From these it is esti-
mated that tie interior of a
star is almost inconceivably hot.
The temperature runs up into
millions of degrees and the
pressure into millions of atmoS-
pheres. AS Adams says:
I'm the first place. it is evi-
dent that all the electrons ex-
cept the innermost one will be
stripped from the atom and
that the interior of the star

Secrets of Health
BY DR.. Louis E. Bisch-

One of the common forms of
insanity is called maniac-de-
pressive psychosis.
It's onset is rather abrupt,
and it may be ushered in either
by the so-called m anic phase"
or by a "depressed phase"
The point is that, although
many variations occur, the
typical case of manlC-depres-
slve disorder starts either with
mania. and is followed by de-
preston, or it starts with de-
preston and is followed by
mania.
Mania sounds alarming, but
1t need not necessarily be so.
In fact, even a very marked
degree Of mania may recover.
Generally speaking, manic
symptoms are characterized by
flightiness in talk, rambling
and incoherent conversation and
great mental and motor unrest.
Such persons cannot keep
still. nor can they keep their
thoughts from wandering hither
and yon. Usually, too, the
qulckness of thinking makes
the patient say what one would
term silly" things. Play on
words and senseless rhymes
are frequent.
Confusion in thinking is also
common. The patient may
start out to talk Of something,
and then completely forget
what 1t was he or she wanted
to say. Psychiatrists say that
the individual in question has
lost his goal idea"
In the manic phase there is
considerable excitement. The
patients are often noisy and
boisterouS. In severe cases the
clothing is torn, furniture
smashed and the typical mani
acal or wild" state is shown.
In the Oppressive stage the
patient is very quiet and his
