Reduce
the Acid

DICK stomachs, sour stomachs ana
indigestion usually mean excess
acid. The stomach nerve are over
stimulated. Too much acid makes the
stomach and intestines sour.
Alkali kills acid instantly. The best
form is Phillips Milk of Magnesia; one
harmless, tasteless dose neutralizes
many times it's volume in acid. For so
years the standard with physicians
everywhere.
Take a spoonful in water and your
unhappy condition will probably end
in FIVE minutes. Then you will always
know what to do. Crude and harmful
methods viii never appeal to you. Go
prove this for your own sake. 1t may
save a great many d~lsagreeable hours.
Get the genuine Phillips Milk OF
Magnesia, the kind physicians have
prescribed for so years.

The dishes were all washed,
and Dee was folding the cloth
and putting it away. Now, the
room looked fairly decent
again. Meals made an awful
mess. Tomorrow was Sunday,
though. No work at the Of
flee. Perhaps she and Tony
could take a ride out to the
beach and go in swimming.
She would fix up a nice lunch
for them, which they could
eat in the park.
Propping both pillows at the
head of the bed, she reached
for part Of the newspaper and
started to read it. Tony was
sitting on the chair polishing
his shoes.
"Sort of a dumb evening,
isn't it?" he vouchsafed, purs-
ing his lips.
"Why, I don't know. What
did you want to do?"

not speak.
Dee followed her into the
street where the car which be-
longed to friends waited.

Tony inquired belligerently, as
the girl came back"
Nothing" Her lips were
trembling and she turned away
so that Tony would not see.

well, your mother needn't
think she can come and nose
into our affairs. I won't have
it,"
"Shall we go?"
They started up to the street
car, Tony muttering to himself.
They passed the lighted
shop of a florist, and he. ex-
cusing himself, ran in and came
out presently, a little green
wallpaper parcel in his hands.
Here, honey, gardenias. Wear
them for me. Well celebrate
anyway"
The girl pinned on the four
gardenias and smiled at Tony.
Sweet of him. He loved her.

anything else.
The thought that the lovely
flowers had taken some of their
precious store of money was dis
concerting. But they were cele-

Dee, want to dance with you"
It took only a moment to
finish dressing. Silently when
her coat was on, she handed
Tony a $40 bill. If he wanted
to go-they would go. Some
thing would come up anyway.
She wouldn't quarrel with him.
They would never quarrel If
she could help it. She hated
quarreling. Mrs. Bradley and
Dennis had quarreled at various
times during her childhood. At
times, these alterations had
been Dennis fault. More often
her mothers.
The thought of them had
sickened her as a child. She
still remembered them with
aversion.
No, Tony and she would never
quarrel. Never.
Tony was whistling impa-
tiently to himself as they went
down the stairs. The doorbell
rang as they reached the land
ing and Dee flew to open it.
The landlady seldom bothered
and often callers went away, the
door unopened.
why, mother!" she exclaimed
surprised. Mrs. Bradley was
standing on the porch.

you," her mother said, stepping
into the hall. 'I won't keep you
very long, but I wanted to see
where you lived and what you
were doing. You were going

room where they lived, ate, slept.
To let her know. as she must
know when she went into the
rooom, how things were going
with them! True she had called
Mrs. Bradley several times this
week, talked to her, that was all.
But to have her come, when she
had expressly said they weren't
settled yet, didn't want any
callers.
Tony was looking darkly at
her, as she retraced her steps
and led Mrs. Bradley upstairs.
"I'll stay here" he called, and,
settling himself on a lower step
pulled out his cigarette case.

The girl closed her eyes as
Mrs. Bradley entered their
room and looked around.

Your Health
and Diet
By DR.. Logan Clendening

by Dr. Logan Clen0enlng
An interesting experiment has
been carried on for several
years at Ore Lake, near Detroit
"a summer camp for diabetic
children.
Diabetes is a much more Sc
we're disease in children than in
older people. It's successful treat
ment requires careful medical
supervision and strict dietary
control. The life prolonging
qualities of insulin are more
evident in children than any
other group of diabetes.
Watch Them Well
Obviously children being less
responsible, these diabetic chill
dren need to be watched very
carefully. They are cut off from
the pleasures of going to a sum-
mer camp with other children.
1t would beadangerous to allow
a diabetic child to partake OF
the general diet at a summer
camp and undertake the activi-
ties of other children without
having a doctors Watchful eye
upon them.
With this idea, the camp in
Michigan was organized. There
are three kinds of special super
vision not found in other camps.
First, a physician and nurse are
on duty-in fact. one physician
and two nurses for about every
Is patients. Then a special
dietitian. And thirdly, special
recreation supervision.
The cafeteria style of serv-
ing food is used. The food is
weighed for each little patient
and NATURALIZATION in diets
is possible by the use Of trained
dietetic helpers. Three groups
of children, getting three gen.
eral classes of diet, are fed
at separate tables.
Much To Be Done
Many arrangements have to
be set up in such a camp. A
laboratory is equipped. An
emergency TREAT ~'ot room pre-
pared to give treatment for
coma and other accidents is
made ready The recreation
workers carry dextrose waters
around with them all the time
to treat the condition of low
blood sugar (hypoglycaemia)
which so frequently arises when
insulin is given. Insulin is
administered to the patients in
constantly varying doses to
meet their changing needs.
The benefits from such an
organization are many. First,
the child gets a vacation from
home and the parents get a
vacation also. A diabetic child
must be watched and it is
inevitable that such watching
may turn into nagging and the
condition get on the nerves
both of the child and its home
guardians.

My dear Rita, I am afraid
that you are making yourself

evidently is not thinking about

you will find yourself happier,

too late to make amends? Would
it be proper to write to him,

Fears for Friend
0EAR MISS FAIRFAX.

I have a dear friend who is
married and has a child. I
am also married. She is cor
responding with a sailor, a
single man and lets him think
that some day she will leave
her husband and marry him.
Her husband is very good to

her and trusts her. Do you
think she is playing the right
game? I hate to see her home
broken up, but she does not
seem to think of that. Please
tell me what to advise her.
PEARL.
It is very hard to advise a
friend that you think she is
making mistake unless she
appeals to you. In that case
you might point out to her that
a dependable husband who
loves and trusts her is far bet
ter than a rowing sailor who
may soon tire and leave her
without either money or friends.
