Plenty of water should be
taken between meals.
Exercise in the open air is de-
sirable.
Avoiding the foods mentioned
above the diet should stress
fruits. except bananas and
grapes.
Meat may be taken once a
day but preferably broiled, not
fried.
Plenty of fresh vegetables in
season should be INDUCED in.
Potatoes and beets are not de-
sirable.
Fish should be eaten in place
of meat perhaps twice a week.
Eggs may be taken in any
form except fried.
Milk is beneficial. especially
buttermilk or any of the familiar
preparations containing Tactic
acid bacilli.
If the patient is overweight,
ne or Sne SnOuld regulate the
diet until a standard is reached.
The same applies to under,
weight individuals.
The skin itself should be
kept thoroughly clean with
soft water and a non-irritating
soap.
In all cases the tone of the
skin is poor as we'll as the
circulation. This must be
built up.
A cool or cold shower or tub
daily often accomplishes Won
ders in toning up the skin
and the entire system. This
should be done gradually, how
ever; that is. the patients
daily bath should start with
luke warm water, making it a
trifle colder each day.
Outside agencies, like oint-
ments, avail little if the sys-
tenn is not more robust.

Why do we take chances?
There's some mystery there.
We're all cowardly. We ali

grow callous to danger.
Ever watch men loading
ships? There's an example.
One side-sWipe of that great
boom sweeping overhead would
smash them all to jelly-but
they hardly bother to duck!
They laugh and loaf and stage
crap games under the very

torCycle raCes-there's another
example. Nothing unusually
brave or philosophical about
men who race motorcycles.
They dread death as much as
other men. Yet, even after
they've seen a Comrade ravelled
to bloody shreds, back they
come to that roaring track
where death croutches on every
curve. And what youngSter
doesn't want to fly? Yet daily
they fall.
Amazing, isn't it? Knocks
that theory of self preservation
to bits. We love life and do
more with it than any other
animals. All of us fear death.
Few of us have any definite.

Most of us believe that death
means the end of everything.
And yet. we are more careless

lWHlT HOUSE

And there, through blundering
and suffering. work and humilia-
ton, he found his God and an
answer to some of his questions.
He, too. had asked that queS-
tion-"Why do men take riskS?"
He had asked it because he
wanted, so terribly, to fell that
life was worth while and that
it went somewhere. instead of
breaking off in darkness. Most
men he knew, thought it did
break off in darkness. Yet,
working in the quarry. he saw
those men taking frightful risks
with the falling stone and
actually grumbling because they
were forced to seek shelter.
And suddenly it came to
Clement that it wasn't so much
an indifference to danger "as
sort of unconscious belief that
whatever happened wouldn't
happen to them as though
each one said I'm all right.
Nothing can make an END of
me-what a fusS!"
Is that. perhaps, the answer
to a great man things?
Do we believe in death just
with the top-side of our minds
with that part of our minds
which is built on this earth?
And is there another, deeper
part of our consciousness which
was not built on this earth
which has known man earths
which sees life clearly, as it
is-an endless adventure? Is
that why death seems such a
tremendous thing to part of our
mind-and such a trivial mass
ing to our deeper souls? Is that
why we take risks? Because
there's really no risk at all?

Pay for Poets
One Suggestion.

America has forty thousand poets most of them starving.
This information is Ralph Cheyney-one of the forty
thousand.
Mr. Cheyney suggests that poets form union like plumb
er brickayers other workers. and necessary strike for
higher wages
mo pay no poetry is the idea.
The union also would stand for the closed shop Nobody
could review poem for instance unless he poet him
SELF And nobody would be permitted teach poetry in col
ege without having his apprenticeship and produced
at least sonnet
That's all right with but the poets taking round
about three square meals day The public would
cheerfuly support most of hemnot to write but to stop
writing. It wouldn't be charity. It would be pleasure.

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

A common blemish on the skin
are pimples-what the doctors
call acne.
Especially frequent are they
about the time of puberty, and
often they are so numerous as
almost to disfigure the face.
Acne. however, may also ap-
pear on the back and other
parts of the body.
Persons suffering from acne
should not, however. consider it
as inevitable and that nothing
can be done to remedy it or
cure it.
Health as near perfect as pos
sible is essential if favorable re-
suits are to be obtained.
One reason that youth is af-
flicted with acne is because
youth favors sweets and tends to
overindulge in them.
Sugars and starChy foods
produce flatulence and also
spoil the appetite" for more
wholesome foods.
In acne, candy. pastries, pies.
jams, jellies. cookies, puddings
and ice cream are taboo.
All starchy foods like pota-
toes, cereals, spaghetti and
gravies with flour should be cut
to a minimum or omitted en-
EEely.
Furthermore, some young
men and women like to con-
sumo alcoholic beverages, stay
up half the night, lose sleep
and smoke too much. All this
is bad for the health in general
and for acne in particular.
Fried and made-over dishes,
spicy and rich foods of all kinds
and condiments likewise are
detrimental to the skin.
First of all, the patient should
always overcome constipation
when it is present.
The Washington times., 1930-05-31

Banditry is reported to be
increasing throughout China.
In some districts it is estimated
that more than half the total
population is engaged in looting
and plundering their neighbors
as a last means of obtaining
a living.
The King of Italy gives most
of his state income to charity
and helps those of his subjects
who have more merit than
money.

same sort of business perhaps
they might listen with some de-
gree of interest to the details
you like 10 relate, but it will be
because the wise man hopes to
gain something of value from
you.
He won't tell you much of
his business, but he may listen,
for he knows that if he can get
you to talk long enough you
may divulge something that
ought to be kept secret in the
interests Of your business.
Then, perhaps, you are the
bore who is continually asking
questions of others about the
lines they arH following.
Only the man who wants to
talk about himself and not a
very successful one at that
welcomes questions about his

This Married Life
Furnishing an alibi comes as
naturally to most married men,
as furnishing a home comes
to a woman.
When a girl attempts to read
a mans palm, she is usually
hoping to find out how purple
is his past and how rosy is
his future.
If a man can survive his
wife's third degree, without
discriminating himself, he feels
sufficiently encouraged to go
right out and do it all over
again.
The man who marries a tenn
peramental wife seldom finds
life dull; but he has to keep
his wits at high-pressure. to
avoid stepping on her unin-
sulated feelings left trailing
around, or contracting her high
voltage nerves.
The only thing men seem
to want to know about a
woman's past" in these days
is how MUCH there is of it.
