DIET AND HEALTH
BY DR.. Logan Clendining-

Every season has its own
peculiar diseases. Affections,
that is, which are directly re-
lated to the climatic condition
Of the season. Summer has a
superficial aspect of friendlineSS
and peace, but in that green
verdure and among those gentle
trees and, bushes. there are
danger and discomfort-Snakes
and chiggers, fleas, gnats, mos
quitoeS and enemy plants. Fore
warned is forearmed, so here is
a description of some of them.
Poison Ivy Symptoms
Poison ivy or poison oak.
Rhus toxidendron, if I remem-
ber my botany correctly. The
victim touches the plant and
almost Immediately at the spot
of contact it begins to sting.
Soon painful blistery rash ap-
pears. Then other parts Of the
body are affected by the same
rash. "AS rule" say the
dermatologists, "the eruption is
self limited, and disappears
spontaneously without soaring,
in the course of a few days or
weeks" But oh! the discomfort
packed into those few days or
weeks.
Some people believe that 1t
can be acquired by just going
near the plant-getting down
wind from. it. But it appears
to be proved that actual con-
tact is necessary.
Most persons do not catch, it
even if they handle the plant.
It is much like hay fever in
this respect. Some are Sus-
ceptible. But the number of
people susceptible to it is
higher than hay feverites.
A few years ago a pair of
doctors got IL people to volun-
teer to handle poison ivy or
poison oak plants. Only two
of the IL developed the erup-
ton Immediately. The juice of
the plant was squeezed out on
the skin of the other ten and
rubbed in: the skin was also
irritated and scratched so that
the Juice got into the blood.
Under this treatment six more
of them developed the erup-
ton. This left four, and moth
ing could make them break out
into a poison ivy rash.
Attacks Grow Milder
AS every victim knows, you
can have more than one at
tack, but as time goes on the
attacks get milder and finally
complete immunity develops.

Miss Rarick," sang out Leslie
Edgerton, on q sudden surge Of
geniality, when she saw Berry
hauled protesting along the
Mediterranean of blue tiles,
"is Jules Wilke-Barre. He's
going to cut a tooth for us
later in the EVENING""
A Wilke-Barre! A thrill shot
through Jennifer. Despite her
self for the snobbery of it as
she would. it was impossible
not to bristle with awareneSs
among names that we're whole
planetary systems in the social
armament. This naughty-eyed,
beautiful-eyed boy, whose knee
had to be showed away again
and again as it approached
hers, a Wilke-B Barre! Here,

alluring Paris gowns? If all
the "frills" are to be cut out,
why not cut out music and art,
and flowers and interior decora-
ton? Why not dispense with
all beauty and all things not
utiliarian?
Tenderness included SO
MANY things. Romance,
courtesy, gentleneSs and a sense
of responsibility for woman's
comfort and safety.
Now, woman can take care Of
HERSELF; fight her own bat
ties, shove her way into the
trolley or the subway, pay her
own taxi-fare, and bring home
her own pay-envelope. And all
this gives her a sense of power
and strength and dignity.
Yet, sometimes I wonder
merely academically of course
if a pay-envelope and a chance
to carry her own latch-key and
her own grips make up to her
for the loss of masculine tender,
ness. And if the new thrill
of independence is worth the
price of all the old thrills.
Then, I remember how
women have swum the English
Channel and flown across the
Atlantic, and won seats in Con-
gress and political campaigns.
And, of course, those are
greater thrills than an old
fashioned tender romance. Oh
yes, of COURSE!

What Price Freedom?

What Price Freedom?
Freedom is grand! But every
thing has it's price. And the
price that women have paid
for their independence is the
loss of tenderness from the
sterner sex.
That "I'lltake-care-of-you-lit-
tie girl attitude has changed
in the last decade, to the Take
care-of-yourSelf- -old-girl" attitude.
And, personally, I feel that we
are missing a lot.
OF course, if you have never
tasted French cooking, you
won't miss it. And if you have
been brought up on corned-beef
and cabbage, you will never

big, stalwart he-man, or sigh
for broad shoulder to cry on.
And 1 may be just a silly old
Sentimentalist.
Still, it WAS comforting, in
the old days, to know that when
you went for moonlight drive
with a man, you didn't have to
wear your walking boots. No
girl had ever heard of walking
back home" Because, mo mat
ter how disappointed or furious
a man might be, if a girl
"spurned" his embraces, he
would at least land her at her
own door, and depart with a
bow.
OF course, all good feminists
will tell you that there was
nothing sincere or honest"
about old-fashioned chivalry.
1t was just mans way of keep
ing woman in her place. Tend
ernesS and chivalry were merely
artificial frillS.

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
never had a chance to go to
high school, and not having
enough education to get a good
position, I had to take a job
as maid. That keeps me tied
down and I am very lonesome
and would like some friends. I
am old enough to go with boys
and I'm not hard to look at
either, but somehow I can't
strike luck. Before I got this
job I used to go to parties and
dances and had several boy
friends, but they we're not my
kind, so I dropped them. Was l
right? How could I make some
friends? A DAILY READER.

her a letter and asked her\ If
she would be my girl. She wrote
back and told me she couldn't
decide just yet. Her birthday
came around and I sent her a
vanity case for a present. She
liked it so much that she wrote
me a letter and said that a
gift like that was too good for
her. I wrote and asked her
if she would send me her pic
ture. She promised to do this
a month or so ago, but I am
still waiting for it. Her fam
lily want me to come over to
their place and spend my sum-
mer vacation. Do you think
that would be a good idea?
LONESOME.
Evidently the young lady's
family want to look you over
before she commits herself. 1t
might be a good idea for you
to agree to spend part of your
vacation with this girls family,
reserving the privilege of spend
ing the remainder somewhere
else. Then, if it did not prove
to be entirely agreeable, this
would give you a loophole of
escape. Your affair seems to
be progressing very well.

At the last moment, and to

servants, the Edgertons had
turned their dinner dance out
of-doors. The suddenly limpid
October, the imminence of
moon, the belated perfume of
late white honeysuckle, had
pressed their way into the ball
room, which was spread with
so small tables and elaborately
laid out across one end with a
complete bar, brass rail, pol
ished counter, battalion of
bottles and glasses, and the
faithful verisimilitude of a
Sprinkling of sawdust.
The milky light of one of
those pale nights that never be-

on to the blue-tile terrace.
Tables had been dragged out
there. A hurried platform for
musicians was being set UP be-

merging one flight of terrace
stairs. Lanterns were run up
in the groves and along the
edges of the swimming pool.
