SUCCESS STORY
Brown, busting and beaming, Alice
Foote MacDougall returned from italy
the other day and plunged feverishly
back into her restaurant, coffee and
giftie shoppe business-a. series Of
amazing enterprises which crossed
something like $4,000, 900 annually un-
til the disastrous year Of 1882. Things
looked pretty hopeless for while, but
now she says the goose again hangs
high. =
Mrs. MacDougall's success has been
the inspiration for scores Of women
around New York-and no one can
guess how many outside Of ito 70
into the atmospheric tea-room bust
ness. What most Of them fail to real
lie in time, though, Is that she has
her own staff Of architects and decor
ators who actually go to Spain when
they want to reproduce an Alhambra
room or Seville wine shop. Nor do
they know that Mrs. MacDougall has
subsidized q whole villageful Of pot
terry makers over in Italy to produce
her tea sets and plates and such.
She used to be an anti-suffragist,
and was forced into q career only by
grim necessity. Her husband, a cof-
fee jobber, died and left her with
three children. She determined to
carry on his business, though at first
she had to borrow money to buy
stamps and send out her sales letters.
She prospered, however, and became
rather well known as the only woman
coffee dealer In town. Later she add
ed tea and cocoa to the line. In 1922
she started coffee shop in Grand
Central station then others, which
were designed to look like quaint little
courtyards in Italy. (The site for the
one on Fifty-seventh st. was leased
for 20 years for a million dollars).
After three of these, she started on
Spanish types, also quaint.
There never has been anything at
mospheric Of whimsical about the
food, however. It's pure American,
though slightly garnished with die
tetics. Her establishments are
thronged with shoppers, bridge clubs
and out-of-town visitors having
lunch or tea. These patrons are al
ways anxious for glimpse Of the
marvellous Mrs. MacDougall, but sell
dom get it because she herself has
neither lunch nor tea. Too busy
working in her office.

Grain Trade Reforms

Reforms agreed upon by the rulers
of the nations grain exchanges un-
doubtedly will do much to correct
the situation which has caused SO
much trouble in recent weeks.
It is inconoeivable that crop con-
ditions can actually change suffi-
GENTLY In ono day to warrant . fluc.
tuation Of more than five cents q
bushel. Crop deterioration or i'm.
provement always is a progressive
thing. It never breaks upon an un-
suspecting market like a bolt from
the blue.
Limitation Of one trader to . ''line'
of not more than 5,ooo.o bushels Is
not unreasonable. Even the biggest
gambler should be willing to leave
enough in the larder to feed the fam
lily for a week or two In case he loses
Increased margin requirements also
will serve to limit the volume Of grain
gambling. This rule will permit $1o(

knowledge and Determination

knowledge and Determination
A little item in Tuesdays news
papers gives apt illustration of the
benefits which come from knowledge,
properly applied, coupled with the
ancient virtue OF persistence.
His 20-month- child pulled from
a Minnesota lake apparently dead, a
Fargo man refused to give up hope,
call an undertaken and go about the
business of consoling himself and his
wife about their loss.
Instead he set to work to apply ar
tificial respiration to the little body.
After an hours work the faint spark
of life had been revived. The baby
apparently is none the worse for his
experience.
The child was fortunate In having
father who knew how to apply ar
tificial respiration and who refused
to give up in the face Of apparent
defeat. TO the father this knowledge
and this determination meant the
difference between live son and
little mound in the graveyard where
in would lie buried the hopes which
all fathers hold for their own.
To learn the art of artificial
respiration Is easy. It can be learned
in five minutes in a score of different
places. Every Boy Scout is taught
how to do 1t and the wide dissent
nation Of this knowledge undoubted-
ly has saved scores Of lives.
The refusal to accept apparent de-
feat, however, Is not SO common. It
is a trait which all of us. no matter
what our natural determination
would do well to cultivate. It may
not always bring such splendid re-
suits as came from this case but
there is always the satisfaction, NO
matter what the issue, of knowing
that we gave the best we had and
that we were true to ourselves.
And once we think Of 1t, It is sur
prising how many battles have been
won in the last ditch.

$4.86 Is Enough

Now that the dollar and the pound
have reached their old parity Of $4.86,
the moment has come for q real test
Of the administrations policy with
respect to the dollar. Perhaps dis
closure would be q better word than
test In this connection, for no one as
yet can be sure what the administra-
ton intends. The official statements
have suggested that the purpose Of our
government Is to raise prices to the
pre-depression level. It was at least
arguable that as long as Great Bri-
tain's currency was cheapened a
against Ours we could not compete
fairly with sterling countries, and
accordingly business and prices in this
country would be depressed. The re-
turn to the old parity should serve
to reestablish the basis Of our former
price level.
It seems probable that those who
control our fiscal policy will be con-
tent with the decline in the dollar
which has already taken place and
will seek to halt 1t at this point. Il
they do not 1t will be either because
they wish the dollar to descend furth.

JUVENILE HYPOTHYROIDIsM

The substance which the thyroid
gland secrets into blood is the ma
tural spark of life. When the gland
furnishes an excess of this internal
secretion or hormone the entire body
is overstimulated and all functions
80 on at excessive speed: this is
called hyperthyroidism and 1t occurs
typically in the state known as ex-
ophthalmic goitre. When the thy
roid function is insufficient all the
life processes slow down: this Is by
pothyroid and when it Is extreme
the condition is known as cretinism
II it happens in infancy or myxe-
dema II it develops in adult life.
Moderate hypothyroidism Is quite
common in the early teens, particu-
larry in girls. AS rule there Is a
moderate enlargement Of the thyroid
gland associated with the hypothy-
roidism but the swelling or. fullness
in the neck just above the breast
bone may not be noticed by the Or
binary observer.
It is pretty well established now
that this juvenile hypothyroidism and
the simple goitre associated with 1t
are both due to iodin deficiency In
food, drink or medicine. It Is pre-
ventible and durable by an adequate
iodin ration.
Among the symptoms which sug-
gest hypothyroidism are apathy,
sleepiness, waxy pallor, anemia, cold
ness when normal persons are warm
enough, forgetfulness, nasal voice,
constipation, weakness Of knees,
swapping Of joints, pronated or sta
tic flat foot. Girls with hypothyroid-
ism are likely to have difficult or
scanty menses, or the function may
be absent for months at q time.
Tinnitus Clearing odd noises in the
ears) is common complaint Of pa
tients with hypothyroidism.
The apathy amounts to melancho-
liza in some cases, but as q rule the
young person is just Anhedonic -
that is, incapable Of enjoying life as
young person should.
The blood pressure is below nor
NAL and the body temperature is be-
low normal. The young person is
unnaturally short OF breath on slight
exertion and complains Of palpita-
ton Of the heart.
There Is q tendency for the eye
brows to fall out, especially at their
outer ends.
Any fish, crustaceap or edible plant
that comes from the sea is good
source Of iodin for the body. Fresh
sea food Is best, Of course, but canned
salmon, shrimp, whale, lobster and
oyster all retain their idoin or q
good proportion Of it.
Vegetables and fruits grown In low
valleys are likely to contain more
iodin than the produce Of mountain
Gus sections. Likewise the drinking
water in some regions has little a
no iodin, while In other places Il
contains an appreciable amount o.
iodin, and It has been found that
the prevalence of endemic goitre il

Vegetables grown In South Carolina

SHIPS READY

HAMBURG, Feb. 2. U.P)-Not-

shipping, the Hamburg America
line is going to put into service
two new motor vessels, the Car
ibia,, and the "Cordillera," which
are to ply between Hamburg and
the West Indies and Central Amer
lean ports.
The Cariba's maiden trip is
scheduled for February, while that
of the Cordillera probably will be
in August.
Both vessels are for combined pas
senger and freight service and are
similar. They are equipped with
twin propellers driven by two eight
cylinder Diesel motors generating
1000 Horsepower permitting of an
average speed of II knots per hour.
Each vessel has a displacement of
16,40O gross tons and affords ac-

Judge To Dig For
Buried Whiskey

Ell PASO, Tex, Feb. 2. up
County Judge j. NJ. Deaver is pre-

of bonded whiskey.

heard, when a boy, about a river
steamer that struck snag in Red
River, in Northern Texas, and
sank in quicksand with its cargo
OF choice liquors. That was during
the Civil War. Good whiskey was
plentiful then, so no one worried
great deal.
But Judge Deaver is convinced
that whiskey would be worth
something these days, especially
when liquor comes back"
SO, he has written cousin, ask
ing the location of the steamer, as
