QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Answer-Don't battle. If you must
battle, then don't use soap or hot wa

have washed out of the skin. This
skin oil is excellent:

two or three hours. Then add IL
drops of absolute alcohol and filter.
This is good oil for the scalp and
hair, too. The preparation of the skin
oil is task for the pharmacist.
Belly Breathing
Is you belly breathing, which I have
practiced with excellent results, as in
structed by you, the same as what
is commonly called diaphragmatic
breathing? Several people have said

right, only one would not want to go

Are they not under misapprehen-
sion? ct. H. 81

t1HE MYgEM0 GERALDINE
i by ANTHONY ABBOT

Geraldine Foster, pretty young
clerk in the office of DR.. Humphrey
MaskeN disappeared on Saturday.
Three days later her roommate,
Betty Garfield, notifies Police
Commissioner Thatcher Colt. She
states that Geraldine phoned her
prior to her disappearance. saying
she wished she was dead. Harry
Armstrong, the missing girls
fiance, had not heard from her
since Friday. DR.. MaskeU says he
returned to his office Saturday
afternoon to find Geraldine gone.
At the Foster apartment Colt
learns from Betty that Geraldine
had quarreled with the doctor.
The Commissioned finds an old
fashioned key in the pocket of
Geraldine's coat, and part of
blackmaH note, presumably in her
handwriting. in the desk. Differ
ent ink than that in the apartment
was used. 1t is learned that Betty
quarreled with Geraldine, and that
she was once engaged to Ger

bag into my hands the Commits
sioner turned again to Doctor
Maskell.
"Do you suppose the mysterious
woman who accosted you brought
back the coat and purse? Did you
notice if she carried anything?"
"Why-why-no, did not"
answered the physician. "What
makes you think about that?"

fenced you," replied Thatcher Colt
gioomily. "And I am sorry to say
that l may have to trouble you
soon again. For the present. good

Maskell, opening wide his door and
bowling.
But at the threshold, Thatcher
Colt paused.
Doctor" he said, II am sorry
to observe, on departing, that you
have not been frank with me-"
"What do you mean?" returned
Maskell sharply.
"You failed to tell me that You
and Geraldine quarreled before
you left on your errand of good
cheer. You had beastly quarrel,
but you have kept quiet about it."
Doctor Maskell looked startled,
then shrugged his shoulders.
"That is true" he admitted.

sufficient thyroid gland activity.
Whether or not there is a suggestion
Of goiter or of physical and mental
torpor or lassitude, such young per-
sons need suitable iodin ration. I
am glad to instruct any reader who
wishes to take an iodin ration; inclose
stamped envelope bearing your adj
dress and ask for instructions for TAX
ing Iodin Ration.
Where the trouble is due to excess
sive sweating of the feet, the sweating
may be controlled by occasional ap-
plication to the stocking feet or to the
lining of the shoes of solution of
one ounce of standard F'Ormaldehyde
in three or four ounces of water. Let
stockings or shoes so treated dry for
day or two before you wear them.
A treatment once or twice a month is
usually enough. Another remedy is
busting the insides of shoes or stock
ings daily with powdered alum, for
three or four days in succession
Avoid washing the feet, especially with
hot water.
Avoid wearing elastics or other tight
things around the leg or around the
waist.
OF course narrow or tight shoes pre-
vent proper circulation and natural
warming of the feet.
Wear wool or wool and silk or silk
stockings, not cotton.
The underwear should be of similar
material and weight. In general a
medium of lightweight wool or silk
and wool material of knitted loose
texture is the most comfortable and
hygienic for the people who are in and
out. Speaking now of people who find
keeping warm a problem. Healthy
youngsters who are quite comfortable
with the flimsiest underwear or none
at all should enjoy dressing ad libi-
tum and exc the old fogieS' concern
about future rheumatic.
If your feet feel like chunks of ice
as you crawl into a cold bed in the
wee sma' hours, that's because you
have been sitting reading. Don't do
1t. Either take run around the
block or do some general calisthenic
exercises before you turn in. And
equip yourself with some sleeping
socks or boots of soft WOOL which you
can kick off after your feet are warm
This is preferable to using a hot wa
ter bottle or other artificial warmth
Artificial foot warmers should be left
to the old folks.
The practice of belly breathing is an
effective way to warm up your feet
and help you to go to sleep.
Dignified parties who can't run
around the block or do any calisthe-
MICS before retiring. may find a few
somersaults at badtime a help.

When your age gets up about where

When your age gets up about where
your temperature should be, 1t is nice
to have your attendant give the sheets
an ironing just before you hit the
cornhusks, or to slip an electric warm
ing pad in about your feet. Hot wa
ter bottles or jugs are all very well,
but what will the nurse think If the
cork comes out in the night?
In any case Of cold feet it is futile
to attempt to correct the trouble by
heating the room up above the hy-
gienic temperature. The hygienic
temperature for living room is from
81 degrees F. to So, and for sleeping
room the air temperature should be
little il any above the outdoor temper

ant denominations.
In annual convention at Indian
apolis, the councils commission on
evangelism asserts that this is no
time for the churches to rest 'in the
chill of winter amid dire dread OF
what the future may bring
Further it declares that 1T is time
the evangelistic emphasis should be
at the front as the guide and dynam-
ic of all social and economic move
ments.
The night of the world is the day
Of the church and the darker the night
of the world the brighter the day OF
the church."
There can be no question about the
need for economic and social evangel-
ism and few will dispute the theory
that the church should be in the FORE
front of all such advancements. It's
primary mission may be to lead souls
to salvation but there are some secu-
lar jobs in which it clearly has part. |
The problem, however, is to make
effective church participation in nom
ecclesiastical affairs. No one doubts |
that application Of the doctrines |
preached would improve the general !
situation. The difficulty is in getting
them put into practice.
The way of the transgressor may be
hard, but from a worldly standpoint it |
Is no more difficult than the lot of |
many evangels whose calls for better |
things are lost in a wilderness of !
cynicism, selfishness, unbelief or in
II that wilderness is to be elimin- |
ated, faith, hope, justice and conf
dence must be reared as standards to |
which all may adhere. Presumably !
the aim Of the church is to lead the !
way toward that condition. Realiza-
ton is, to say the least, a man-sized
Job.

with Doctor Maskeli marching at
my heels. The sombre, brown
eyes of Thatcher Colt were turn
ing from one object to another in
the clutter of stored material in
that last room of the suite. Bend
ing down, he fingered bottles and
packages that lay loosely around
and I noticed that over one large
bottle he fingered. Stolidly the
doctor watched as the Commits
sioner removed the stout cork. and
shifted at the neck of the bottle.
Then. still without word, Thatch-

on prowling into the consultation

a closed door.
