THAT BODY OF YOURS

tain foods, by not being completely
digested, form substances in the lower
bowel that makes the body more liable
to nervous and chemical changes. 1t is
felt that fats interfere with the proper
digestion Of these foods.
This means that, In these particular
individuals, meat, eggs, cereals or other
proteid foods should be eaten without
the use of much fat cream, butter or
fat meat during the same meal. Fat
slows up or has an upsetting influence
on the digestion of food in the stom-
ach The use of much starchy food,
particularly with fats, should be avoided
if food IS eaten just before going to bed.
That nasal obstruction is the main
factor in some cases has been disputed
by many research men, but the evi-
dence is again accumulating to show
that the clearing up of nose and throat
conditions has cured many cases of
asthma.
Other cases Of asthma have been
found to be due to various kinds of
dust, and when the patient was re-
moved to another district, he became
free of asthmatic attacks.
The points to remember then, are,
first, that adrenalin is still the best

he has eaten that day and compare it
with what he ate on the day he had
previous attack. This might locate

TINE commemorative block in the
Washington anniversary quilt

L upset present numerals. The
square is like medal both
sides Of which are shown at one time
thereby necessitating extra space as
found in the double block. A pleasing
innovation is introduced in the sill
houette of the man who led his coun-
trymen on to victory. The profile
silhouette, together with the dates, tell
the tale of long years of grateful re-
membrance and honored appreciation.
The clusters of cherries above and be-
low the dates lend their notes of whin-
Zeal pleasantly, for they recall the
youthful incident Of Washington and
the cherry tree, which is bit of Amer
lean lore dear to all hearts.
The dating of the Washington ami
versary quilt is Of signal importance
since the coverlet is designed to COM
memorate the 200th anniversary of the
birth of George Washington, the Father
of Our Country. To accent this fea-
ture two dates are essential-1732 and
1882. A quilt so dated will be valued
and valuable in future generations. The
commemorative block developed in ap-
plique has a quaint charm that does
honor to the subject, and adds char
acter to the quilt.

daisy has hard time keeping her
family from being wiped out. Once in
her adopted country. where SO much
uncultivated land was to be had for
the taking, she took possession with
delight, and now her children may be
seen from May until November along
the roadsides, in the pastures and mea-

her seeds with the grass and what he
does not scatter the wind finishes.
White flowers must treat guests we'll

daisy house has long, parchment-llK

surround the golden-disk flowers. Each
daisy is really host within herself,

male f1oret, who has grown a snowy
white corolla, in order the insect visl-
tors may see and come calling. the
golden center consists of hundreds of
tiny. tubular florets, huddled close to-
gether in a pretty green cup. Inside OF
each tiny, yellow tube stand the sta
mems. So closely are they packed, their
heads touch each other. The pistil
within the circle of stamens develops
and pushes through them. On the tip
of the pistil are two little hair brushes,
and it is the duty to brush the pollen
from the anthers and have it in heap
ready for the insect guest.
An insect, crawling over the floret,
will take the pollen with her to the next
flower After the pollen is gone, the
pistil opens its two arms which have
been held close together to prevent self
fertilization. They become sticky and
when another insect guest arrives with
pollen on her coat, 1t is left behind on

seems to me that men are more likely
to be careless about their eating habits
than women. Although the latter are
often fighting fat and keep the foods
low on calorie values. they are usually
fond of vegetables and fruits and are
likely to have a better balanced diet
than men, who eat larger quantities.
The woman who plays the par. Of
housekeeper and prepares or Supervises
the preparation of meals three times
day is naturally regular il her meal

eral lunches at regular time. Busi-
., men, however, are often irregular
with their lunch hours and sometimes
very careless in their choice of food.
The so-called business mans lunch is
too often lacking in fruits and vege-
tableS. 1t is often too heavy meal TO
be digested easily by the man who
spends his afternoons sitting at a desk.
Many men think that they need pay
no attention to the kind of food they
eat. In the late 30's and early 40s.
however, they sometimes reap the re-
suits OF years of bad habits of eating.

The other man has eaten not wisely,
but too well. He has been accustomed
to eating a lunch which was really q
dinner and to eat meal similar to the
same, although better type, in the eve

overweight and his system is clogged
with toxins, which have accumulated
because Of too much food and too lit

To prevent the occurrence of such
conditions, men and women alike

This dating of quilts harks back to
old quilt making days. The collector
of antique coverelets and the person
who possesses cherished heirlooms Of
this handicraft delight in finding dates
inscribed on patches. The figures not
only definitely determine the period
when a quilt was begun or was in the
process of making, but it Is also key
to the type of designs which prevailed
at the time These features are present
in the Washington anniversary quilt,
in which dates and designs combine
to mark the era and the needlecraft.

canoe and intrinsic beauty appeals to

Stage Fright.

SsN6S =
Stage fright is a psychological fact
that has far-reaching application. 1t
seems that performers before the public
never really do outgrow it fully, even
though they appear to have conquered
it. It's hard to outgrow something that
is wrapped up in the very nature Of
human beings.
Stage fright may in the first place be
described as feeling Of timidity. And
timidity is a mild form of fear. Fear
of something now and then is as nat
ural as breathing. And for that matter
Just as important for the maintenance
Of life. It's foolish to imagine that
training and experience will root our
fears out altogether.
Stage fright, in the second place may
be described as a feeling of inferiority.
And here again We have something
which every one has. In some degree at
least. in the face Of some situations.
Stage fright may again be described
in terms of hostility. When the in
