Of course, after about the fifth husband, l suppose you'd think you had a lace cloth with linen insert, rather than linen with lace set in, if you understand what I mean.

Certainly the date, Sept. 21, fol- lows the date of vaccination. But since no one has as yet found the specific germ or virus that causes vaccinia (the nature of vaccine) or the specific germ or virus that causes infantile paralysis (acute anterior poliamyeltis) how can any one say whether the illness and death of this boy bore any relation to his vaccination?
 Remember, please, that am ab- solutely opposed to compulsory vaccination, either honest force or trickery such as the contemptible practice of prosecuting parents through the push and shove law having one law compelling school attendance and another excluding the child who is not vaccinated.
 But this Higgins pamphlet villf- fies the entire medical profession in the introduction to the Loyster pamphlet which composes such prominent part of the book. From this introduction I quote: "It should be understood
 that I am not physician. This leaves me free to write with | greater frankness in certain
 instances than would be per- r mitted to doctor by the | ethics of his profession" Jas A. Lowster).
 . If any nti-vaccinationist or any one else Can cite any principle Of the Code of Medical Ethics by which a physician is hindered from telling the truth in circumstances uhare any human being is injured thereby, I'll undertake to shame the medical profession into a revis- ion of the Code through the force of public opinion.
 You know how corporation lawyer studies the constitution and the statutes to find loopholes for his clients? We'll, I have studied the Code of Medical Ethics pretty carefully. I have never discovered anything in it that in any way cramps doctors thoughts, words or deeds-as long as he is up to no skullduggery.

A gay and unusual Thanksgiving table setting is shown hereG Cello phane with its glistening sheen has been chosen to give a really festive tone to the decorations.
 The centerpiece is easily made with a rectangular box, two turkey cut-outs and two shades of spark ling amber. Start by making the two ruffles which are pasted against the cut-outs. Take two pieces of the transparent amber material, about 16 inches long by 10 inches wide, and fold down an inch or two along the 1f-inch side. Gather over a knitting needle as the fold, remove the needle and insert piece of wire or heavy thread to hold the gathers in place. Then paste ruffle on the back of each turkey cut-out, and next fast en these cut-outs on either side of the box which is left open at the top to hold fayors.
 Wrap the favors in amber or red
 or some in each color, leaving ends of irregular shape about 16 inches long, which stand up straight and are arranged into a sort of fa- shape to form the tail. The two
 semi circular ruffles at the base of | the centerpiece are made by the
 ruffle directions given above, alter ing the size to suit your taste and
 table. These ruffles are simply placed flat on the table on each
 side of the box.
 To make the place card holders,
 wrap an English walnut in an eight
 inch square of the transparent ann Der material, twisting and spread ing the ends into fan-like tail. Twist heavy wire hairpin around the base of the tail. shaping it's end into legs and triangular feet which will hold the place card. For the neck and head of the turkey, use little strip of red Cellophane, crushed and doubled over, making

QUESTIONS and ANSWERS. Carbon. .MOnOxide in Tobacco SmOk

Carbon MonOxide in Tobacco Smoke
 In an article on smoking you said that it is not known definitely whether the ill effects on the sys- tenn are due to nicotine in the smoke or to carbon monoxide. Will you please tell me whether any, thing definite is known about car- bon monoxide in tobacco smoke? e. D. A.)
 Answer-H. B. Hanson, M. D., and A. B. Hastings, Ph.D., made a series of estimations of the carbon monoxide in the blood, and found that the blood of normal persons who do not smoke is % saturat- ed with co and the blood of per- saturated. That means that non- smokers inhale traces of carbon monoxide perhaps the second hand smoke of other persons) or the ex- haust of automobiles or pollutions of the air by escaping gas or con tamination of the air by leaky flues or chimneys or by any fire that burns with insufficient draft.
 Oh. Yeh?

 Heard that in dycing the hair the dye goes down through the hair shaft and thus gets into tho blood causing blindess .... Mrs E. R. R.)
 Answer-I know of no hair dye that would be likely to cause blind- ness, but many hair dyes or so- called color "restorers" are poison- ous and you must watch your step when you use such things.

Ever so many delicious and in- expensive desserts can be made from canned fruits. These des- serts add interest to winter meals by furnishing the flavor and nutri- ton of summer fruits at a time when the diet is apt to be rather heavy and monotonous.
 Every one naturally likes fruit and fruit dishes. This makes the serving of these foods an ideal way to add yitamins and minerals to the diet.
 The juice of canned fruits can be used in various ways, too. Com bined with lemon juice, it makes a good orange juice substitute for breakfast. Light colored juices are excellent in salad dressing. Any fruit juice thickened with cornstrach and made piquant by a little lemon juice makes a pleas- ing sauce for steamed buildings. Stiffened with gelatine and molded attractively. the fruit and juice make an inviting dessert served with a garnish of whipped cream. The small fruits particularly are nice to serve this way.
 Jellied Strawberries
 One pint can strawberries, 1 tablespoon granulated gelatine. 4 tablespoons cold water.
 Any variety of berries or small fruit can be used in this recipe. Drain fruit from juice. Soften gelatine in cold water for five min- utes. Heat juice to boiling point and stir in softened gelatine. Stir until dissolved and let stand until cool and beginning to jelly. Fold in fruit and turn into a mold. Chill for several hours. Turn out of mold and serve with whipped cream.
 Peach souffle is simple, deli- cious dessert. Apricots also are good used this way.

 Proved Fatal s. B. Rockwell Died Last Night at Waterbury
 Hospital

Sherbourne E. Rockwell, 4, l prominently known in local busi- ness and social circles, died last evening at the Waterbury hospital of septicemia. He had been ill for several days.

THE WORKERS OF NAUCATUCK ARE
 GIVEN TESTS
Yale Professor Studied Them for MOnth-Little Snack Between Meals Was of Great Help

New Haven, April 21-(UP)- Industrial workers are more effi- cient when they, have "a little snack" between meals according to Dr Howard w. Haggard, professor ofLphysiology at Yale university.
 "The three meals @ day idea, which is universal in America, is a result of adjustment to the time schedule of a factory civilization, he declared at a meeting of indus- trial executives last night.
 Experiments conducted over a period of months among rubber workers at Naugatuck, he said, showed the distraction or irrati- bility type of fatigue, characteristic of the group studied, came toward the end of the morning and after noon and was relieved by supplying the workers with a light and easy digestible lunch, higher in sugar content"
 The drop in efficiency, usual at the end of the day, was reduced from 10 to 20 percent. The 'car- bueretor adjustment" of the human engine, he said, was two1thirds sugar and on-third fat. This ratio, he explained, held steady for sever al hours after a meal until the sugar. of carbohydrates were burn- ed up and the fat supply of the body was drawn on at an excessive rate, producing fatigue. by supply ing additional sugars, efficiency was kept at an even pace. The sugar-fat ratio was kept normal for the longest period by supplying milk to the workers.
