Your Health
And Diet
BY LOGAN CLENDENING, MD.


The choice Of disinfectant
depends on the nature Of the
object to be disinfected, as well
as on the resistance of the
germ to be killed. One disin-
fectant will do for the skin,
but not for bedclothes, and a
weak germicidal solution Of BIZ
chloride of mercury cannot be
depended upon to kill tetanus
spores.
When possible, the best dis
infectant is always heat. Boil
ing water for three minutes
will rid any object placed IN 1t
of nearly all germs. To be sure
certain spores of resting stages
of bacter:a have shown a tena-
cious resistance to such heat,
but for practical purposes they
are negligible. Eating utensils
bedpans, cuspidors, bed linen,
personal linen, and rubber
goods gloves, fountain syringeS)
can all be disinfected this way.
Boiling water also is effective
as a disinfectant for mechan'
ical cleaning of surfaces, sucn
as floors, walls, beds, metal
work, etc. The efficacy OF the
water as a germicide is greatly
increased by the addition 'o1
bichloride of mercury or car
bo1ic acid or lysol.
Methods used in hospitals,
such as autoclaying and steam
disinfecting, are not appllcaole
to household problems.
Soiled wash cannot be DIS
infected by boiling without
risk of staining. In fact, IN
household nursing practice 1t
is much better first to disln-
feet the linen chemically and
then clean the stains before
boiling. To do this the wash
should be wrapped in a sheet
which has been soaked in
solution of lysol or carbollc
acid. The bundle inclosed in
the sheet should be placed in a
sack, the sack left open, and
soaked in a solution OF three
per cent soft soap, heated half
way to the boiling point and
left in the solution 48 hours.
Distinction of discharges
from. the body-sputum, stools
and dejecta-is done either
with per cent carbolic acid
solution, 10 per cent formalin
solution, or five per cent
chlorinated lime. The excre-
tions should be left to stand
at least two hours in these
solutions and the particles
thoroughly broken up.
Thermometers always should
be soaked in 10 per cent alco-
hol solution for an hour after
use.
Books which have been used
by a convalescent often afford
a puzzling problem. If posi-
BILE, cheap reprints or maya
zines should be used in the
first place and after conva-
lescence burnt. If the book is
too valuable for this, the
method of Beebe is practical.
The book is dipped in a solu-
tion of carboic acid and gaso-
line. Afterwards the book is
placed before an electric fan,
which rapidly drives off the
gasoline.

Correct
Manners
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
When a couple arc secretly
married and wish to keep the
marriage a secret for some time
what is done about the ring
Wearing the wedding ring would
reveal the secret.
And yet, it is unlucky to take
the ring off.
Could an ordinary ring b.
substituted until thG announce
ment of the marriage?
CURIOUS.
Usually, under these CirCum-
stances. the ring is not worn at
all. OF course If the bride is
impeded by ridiculous Superstl.
tions, she will indeed be torn
between revealing the secret and
the ridiculous superstition.
And l don't see how anyone can
give her advice under these
circumstances. It takes more
than a superstition to change
the inherent value and sym.
bolism of wedding ring
And I certainly can't sec how
wearing another ring would
conquer the superstition!

Study Your Plays

Both the declarer and the de-
tenders should give more care
full consideration to their play.
A large percentage of players
should do better on both their
offensive and defensive strategy.
I consider defensive strategy
more difficult than that of the
declarer, because the declarer
knows his full resources the mo-
ment dummy is boarded. The
hand shown afforded both de-
clarer and defenders an oppor-
tunity for the display of skill.
The declarer saw the trap yawn-
ing at his feet, and saved him
self through a bit of innocent
appearing guile. The willy op-
ponent who laid the trap took
his only chance of defeating
the contract, but his partner did
not arise to the occasion.

He Has Promised to Call

AAC AA@S AOAuASCu W NdH
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I have met young man re-
Gently for whom I care very
much. I rarely see him, as he
is steady night worker. He
promised to come and meet
my parents when he has
night off, but that has never
come yet. I could go to his
house to see him, but I Just
don't want to show him I'm
falling all over him, till he
shows an interest first. I know
he cares for me very much,
and seems so happy when he
sees me. What would you ad-
wise me to do, wait patiently
and see how things turn out,
or Just forget about him and
find another?
GERTRUDE E.
Patience would seem a bet
ter policy than to try to rush
things The young man is
probably little shy and nerv-
Gus about that first call. 1t
might be we'll for you to set
some particular evening for
him to visit you and meet
your family. Next time you see
him you might say: Wed be
glad to see you Wednesday," or
whenever it is he has a night
off.

Advice to the
Lovelorn
BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX
Dear Miss Fairfax:

O6dT MlSS rdlIldH.
A boy of 21 lived two doors
from me. I'm IT. Then he
moved around the corner. In
the meantime someone told
him lot of lies on us, but his
folks didn't believe those tales.
This boy let me wear his ring,
but his mother asked me to
give it to her and I did. Since
then he hasn't been round, but
he passes the house lots of
times in his car, goes very
slowly, and looks very hard.
What would you do?
MOLLIE
I'd give him my most charm
ing smile and speak to him.
There's no reason in the world
you two should be mad" with
each other because someone told
stories, and the boy acted on
impulse. When his mother asked
for the ring, you were sensible
to return it. Make up by all
means.

An Ingenious Idea

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
Would it be proper to have a
hard time party for Halloween.
if all the decorations are to
be for this season, such as.
corn stalks, pumpkins, and
orange and black trimmings?
r.
Yes. this would be correct.
and l think that you could
make such a party most at
tractive and great deal Of
fun. It's an ingenious idea.

119 CHINESE SAIL
FOR NATIVE LAND

The 119 Chinese who were ordered
deported at Nogales, Bisbee and
Douglas by Judge Fred G. Jacobs at
recent sessions Of the United States
district court, are now aboard the
new steamship, President Hoover,
travelling de luxe for Hong Kong.
This contingent of Chinese was
the largest yet deported from Ari-
zona. They had fled from Mexico
with hundreds of others, claiming
that they felt that their lives were
endangered, following organization
in Mexico Of an Anti-Asiatic So
ciety. Many of them sacrificed their
property and came to the United
States penniless while others left
everything they had and fled.
The Southern Pacific railroad
which transported the Chinese to
the golden gate city furnished three
coaches, dining car and IL guards.
The guards had little to do as the
