his hands and three prospective wives
to be dealt with.
The picture strikes its stride at the
very start, and there is no let-down in
hilarious amusement and entertain
ment until the final fade-out. The
vivacious action of the picture is en-
HANGED UNNECESSARILY by the crisp
and witty dialogue.

comedy successes for Universal, direct
ed Little Accident" The cast brought

most distinguished ever assembled for

Marsh are featured. Other famous
names in the cast are Roscoe Harms,
Henry Armetta, Myrtle Stedman, AL

same name, which was written by
Thomas Mitchell and Floyd Dell. Gene
Towne handled. the adaptation for
the film, and the screen play is the
work of Gladys Lehman Albert De-
Mond, Universal associate producer,

Salaried Workers.

Sickness. loss Of work, misfortune
any of these things and others threaten
to cut off the income of the salaried
worker Very often she needs that
income for her very living. and, If 1t
is lost. she is forced TO borrow. II you
are ever in that predicament, don't
feel it a disgrace to borrow. What is
still more important, don't borrow from
any agency or person who tries TO
make you think so.
When that condition arises, choose
your lender carefully. Don't pay be-
yond the legal limit for your loan. Go
to few loan societies and learn what
the current rate on small loans Is. Look
up the reputation Of the people with
whom you are dealing, and make sure
that they are honest and above board.
You must especially beware of the
salary buyer. Some loan sharks will
give you $25 on Monday, providing you
promise to pay them back S27.50 from
your pay check on the following Sat-
urday. If on Saturday you fail to pay
them, they threaten to tell your en-
ployer, and have you discharged or
have your entire pay held up.
There is a record of one working girl
who paid more than $500 in interest
over a period of three years on a ten
dollar loan! That amounts to a thou
sand per cent year Another young
girl was bled for $1,000 interest" on
a loan of thirty dollars. You may not
be as gullible as these girls were-let's
hope not-but to be victimized at all
Is ineXcusable
In many cases employers are more
than willing to advance money to
trusted, dependable workers in the
event Of special need or hardship. They
will not charge interest, or ask for any
signed agreements. Railroad employees
seem to be favorite victims of loan
sharks, and one Western trunk line
voted recently to ignore all assignments
made by salary buyers" against their
employees. The salary buyer must work
bluff his game is spoiled. Let him go
to your employer If he dares. Usually
he exits head first from the door marked

Possibly your employer will wipe his
hands of the whole business, and tell

Crick in the Back,

One day I had a hurry call. The
patient I found sitting in a carefully
rigid attitude on the edge of chair

applied wide girdle of several layers
of strong adhesive plaster as firmly as
possible to support the joint AS soon
as this was applied the patient found
she could stand up and walk about with
out discomfort. We kept such support
applied for several weeks, and there
was no more trouble.
The sacro-iliac joint is not really
joint at all 1t is merely the junction
between the sacrum or base of the
spine and the wing of the hip bone.
1t is normally quite irnmovable Even
in the most marked cases of sacro-iliac
strain or sprain or relaxation or sub
luXation or partial dislocation, as it is
variously termed, X-ray pictures give
precious little evidence of any actual
displacement Of the bones that join in
the synchondrosis. The X-ray tech

mobility in certain cases, but I've never
felt convinced.

Then 1t all came pouring out. She

Decoration for Collar and Cuffs
BY MARY MARSHALL.

Just this feminine touch to make it
most becoming
If the sleeves Of your dress are short,
make cuffs not more than three inches
wide-strs ight little cuffs that turn
back from the hem of the sleeve. The
collar calls for two triangular pieces
of the lace eight or nine inches deep.
They are applied like small revers to
the sides of V-neck and are allowed
to fall down in graceful folds at the
front The back of the neck is left
collarlesS
This trick of applying the collar
trimming only to the front Of the neck
has many advantages. If collar of
lace or light toned lingerie is used 1t
would quickly become soiled at the
back OF the neck, simply by rubbing
against the coat. Then, too, it is much
easier to adjust a collar decoration
that can be applied only at the front.
If you are planning to make this
decoration for a brown dress you will
find ecru lace most becoming On a
black dress you may use either ecru
or pure white, letting your choice de-
pend on which is most becoming to
YOU.
