The terms applied to furniture are
getting as multitudinous as the names
now given to rugs from the Orient. No
one who is not constantly in touch
with furniture styles can expect to be
acquainted with the names of a single
kind as chairs. for instance, or tables.
New names spring up over night and
they have no particular significance,
for they merely apply to some special
manufacturers output or to some
slight deviation from a previous output.
Apart from these commercial names,
there are historic terms which are in
teresting and helpful to know. Each
has its history, and has evolved from
an older type, or has been the result
of the influence of contact with the
crafts or arts of another country. For
example when England began to get
really acquainted with China. the
Chinese influence was shown in furni-
ture and furnishings This was long
years ago, but every one who knows
about furniture is familiar with this
period style especially with Chinese
Chippendale.
In recent years Italy has been in
the forefront of world affairs. 1t was a
natural result that Italian styles in fur
niture should gain popularity in
America. just now there is a Spanish
trend. due to the fact that that coun-
try is coming to the fore.
There are two distinct kinds of fur
niture from these countries, the kind
used by the nobility and aristocracy
and the peasant type. II is the latter
that is in the performance with us.

Shall I Work for SALARY :

About two blocks from our home is a
restaurant location where four different
attempts have been made during
the last six months to start up a
business. Each of them has failed
ompletely-within 80 days of opening.
The general public is amused. 1t
seemingly doesn't know how to be any
thing else. Few if any have stopped
to realize that the money and time
lost in unsuccessful eating houses
ultimately are charged up against the
general consumer in higher costs of
living. Perhaps if they did, laws would
soon be passed requiring satisfactory
evidence of experience in such lines
before man or woman might re-
ceive license to invest capital in them.
But this talk is to be about an indi-
vidual and not social problem. These
clearinghouse failures in our neighborhood
were tragic personal affairs. In two
OF the cases at least, a large share
OF family's resources was spent on
new fixtures and in redecorating-and
almost totally lost when the enterprise
was abandoned.
To the outsider, all Of these failures
have been due to a lack of experience
in some essential place of the business,
because for many years previously
profitable enterprise had been oper-
dONh L14C OIc Iall-
ure may have been due to poor buying,
another to inferior cookery, a bad
proportioning of financial resources. a
misjudging of the local demand, etc.
All Of which suggests that other per-
sonal qualifications are required for
successfully operating a business than
simple, unadulterated ambition.
Many women, especially, are dismayed
by the general requirement of employ
ers that new workers must have
experience" How is one to get the
experience. they moan, without a
chance to demonstrated" But the
people who pay salaries realize that
workers without experience are a dead
weight to a business. if not worse To
put them in responsible positions. with
good pay, Is to court disaster. That's
why. of course. most of us have to
start at the bottom. and work up, even
If our start is late in life. The finsn-
cial safety of a going concern requires
experienced workers in all of its posi-
tons of responsibility
How much more then is it necessary
that person should require experience
before attempting to launch and man
age an entirely new business?
People often ask: Should I work
for salary, or have my own business?"

BEDTIME STORIES q =. T s..,..,

guess 1t is good thing to have Q new
home once in q while. We must have
this foundation strong, so don't bring
any rotten sticks Just remember that
we are building for a long time to
come. Anyway. hope so. I would
hate to feel that We are building for
those robbers who took our other nest I"
She meant Hooty the Owl and Mrs.
Hooty.
The building Of new home a not
thing to be rushed. Redshoulder and
Mrs. Redshoulder didn't hurry their
work. There was time enough. They
had arrived early and there was plenty
OF time before 1t would be necessary
to begin housekeeping in earnest. So
they divideded their time between hunt
ing for food, building the new nest and
Just sitting nearby, resting and
dreaming OF the new home they would
nave.
RedShoulder tried to do his share
and spent great deal of time hint
ing for sticks of the proper size. sew
eral times he added lis sticks to the
nest when Mrs. RetSsnoulder wasn't
there, only TO have AAx SssH them out
when she did return. Sometimes shN
rearranged them, and sometimes ~
scornfully tossed them away.
That stick might do for the nest
OF Blackey the Grow, but not for our
nest" she would say. IT do wish you
would be more careful in the sticks
you bring"
"Yeslm," Redshoulder would saw
meekly. You are right, my dear. or
course, you are right That stick look
ed all right to me, but you know best.
Isn't that stick you have just q trifle
small?"
mo, it isn't" Mrs. Redshoulder
would retort. LIT is time to use smaller
sticks. I'm glad to have you bring
sticks. but / do wish you wouldn't try
to put them into the nest. You only
make more work for me, for you never
put them in the proper place. There Is
right way and a wrong way to place
q stick, and you always manage to
place 1t the wrong way"
"Yes'm," Redshoulder would say. "Of
course, you are right. Next time I'll
just leave the stick for YOU"
But the next time he brought q stick
and found that Mrs. Redshoulder
wasn't there he would be unable to re-
sist the temptation to add that stick
to the nest. Sometimes he would
hurry away before she returned. How
ever, the result was always the same.
The stick was always pulled out and
put somewhere else or thrown aside
Mrs Redshoulder knew every stick that
went into that nest and there was no
fooling her. So day by day the nest
grew and day by day the Redshoulders
grew happier Building a new home
was work, but also it was great fun.

The coronary arteries have nothing

They are the arteries that supply the

Dr. Rukstinat noted that none of the
dogs showed signs of delayed air en-
bolism such as that not rarely seen in
women from the intrauterine injection
of liquids with which some air is ac-
cidentally mixed. Such persons may
live for hours after the injection of the
air, and then die In commissions and
cyanosis (blue or liyid appearance).
A patients antrum (naXillary sinus)
was being irrigated. At the compile
ton of the irrigation the patient faint
ed, became livid and died abruptly. At
autopsy large bubbles of air were found
in the right ventricle, and there were
other bubbles in the arteries to the
brain.
Another investigator in Europe, W..
Gundermann, found that air injected
into the pulmonary veins of a dog
quickly produced death from coronary
embolism. The pulmonary veins con-
vey the air-purif1ed blood from the
lungs to the heart.
1t has been suggested by various stu
dents that the sudden death of a SWIM
mer following a splasher may be from
coronary air embolism, the air being
forced into the pulmonary veins by the
sudden violent increase in the pressure
OF the air in the lungs.

Air Embolism.

At the last census the number of
mystery story writer's had nearly over
taken the number of fans in the coun-
try, so this subject, the effect of little
air In the arteries, should interest,
estimate, "a per cent of our total popu-
lation.
There is a good old tradition which
makes it sure and swift death, and
withal battling to the ordinary or movie
type of doctor, coroner or district at
torney, to inject few little bubbles of
air into your victims vein. Think of
it! A nice, neat, workmanlike Job and

the tale even to the keen eyes of the
fictional dick.
But this. method is not so good in
real life. I know because I have tried
it. A couple of Frenchmen tried it on
a large scale year or two ago they
injected pint or two of fresh air into
the vein of a bull and it never feazed
him. forget how much air they had
to give the bull before it upset him
noticeably, but it seemed enough to
crowd out large proportion of the
blood from the vital organs.
I have often included a little air
gratis with solution injected into a
vein, and it worried me no more than
it did the patient. But air in the acces-
sible arteries or veins is one thing and
air in the coronary or carotid arteries
is a different matter, according to DR..

MOVIES AND MOVIE PEOPLE
By MOLLIE MERRICK.

HOLLYWOOD, Calf. March IA
(N.A.N.A) Fred Murnau, famous Ger
man director, wrote the most recent
record on the list of local casualties
when his car plunged of a cliff near
Santa Barbara. Murnau, pinned be-
meath the tonneau of the heavy ma
chine, was fatally injured, and died a
few hours later at the Cottage Hospital
The motion picture colony has been
strange chapter in Fred Murnau's
brilliant career. Brought to the studios
of Hollywood after he had made some
OF the outstanding films produced in
German studios, notably The Last
Laugh" with Emil Jannings, Fred Muir
nau was hailed as the genius of the
world
He made Sunrise" with Janet Gay
nor and George O'Brien. 1t was an
artistic success, but the box -office record
was not f1attering. He made -Four
Devils, with Janet Gaynor again. Then
came talk. And Fred Murnau decided
he didn't know anything about talk, so
he closed the gray castle he had built
up by Lake Hollywood and hied himself
away on his yacht for the South Seas.
There, after two years of study and
cruising. he made "Tabu," the picture
which he recently brought to Hollywood.
But he didn't intend to remain in the
movie colony. He had planned to re-
turn to Germany to visit his mother
and then go back to where he had found
real civilization-the South Sea Islands.
At the time of his death he was hur-
rying TO meet Gouverneur Morris in
Monterey to talk over the novelization
Of "Tabu."
After seeing the pre-view Of 1.-THE
Front Page" am convinced that Lewis
Milestone is the artist of Hollywood
He has done one of the finest pictures

St. Patrick's Day Gives
Chance for Party
BY FLORENCE Ia GANKE.

A few years ago all the young folks
entertained away from home. Their
idea of a good time was movie or a
theater party or dance Nowadays the
home is coming back as place in
which to have the crowd for an eve
ning's fun. Mrs. Lacey was delighted
that her girls were living at this time,
for she had been noted as a gracious
hostess who knew how to make guests
enjoy themselves. Now she had plenty
of opportunity to put her skill to the
test. For st. Patrick's Day she and
Claire planned an evening of sport
They did not have much money to
spend, but that did not deter the guests
from having much fun.
First came the old-time Irish potato
race. Large potatoes were scrubbed
and dried. The guests were each given
a teaspoon. Then they were led to a
starting line at one end of a long hall.
Each person had to scoop up the po-
tato on the spoon and then had to
carry it to the finish tape at the other
end of the room. The one who reached
the line first with the potato still bal
anced on the spoon won the race Only
one hand could be used. The other
dared not steady the potato.

which the studios will put out this sea-
son. And this out of very fine play
Good plays seldom make good pic
lures. Good books rarely are good in
the gelatin. When a tale has found its
right medium in the beginning, further
attempts to retell it in another and less
pertinent medium fail.
But Milestone has made the great ex-
ception in THE Front Page" It is
made with a sincerity, humor, cour-
age and an absolute forgetfulness of
self which render it tremendously con-
vhcing
Directors, art directors and authors
have hard time of it. Whenever the
audience is conscious of any one of the
three of them they have overplayed
themselves. But despite all the truly
original touches one finds in THE Front
Page" one Is not reminded throughout
tnat Lewis Milestone made the picture.
The casting of Adolph Menjou In
the role OF the staccato city editor, Wal
ter Burns, had struck me as Somewhat
com1cal. Menjou, whom I had always
seen doing his stuff to the seven-timeS-
slower technique which all directors
loved, seemed incongruous in this role.
He is excellent. He gives one of the
