Secrets Of Health
By LOUIS E. BISCH
Famous Authority Health and Psychology

Inasmuch as hay fever is
prevalent when the roses bloom
and during the summer, it may
seem strange that one should
advise preventive treatment
months in advance. However,
since attacks can only be
avoided by inoculating the sys-
tenn, and by building up the
body and nerves, before the
flowers and weeds that cause
the disease bloom, it must be
evident that time is a major
factor.
Hay fever is one Of the most
annoying as well as stubborn OF
affections. Irritating as it does

finally making some persons
feel as though they were on the
verge of nervous proStration.
The symptoms, of course. are
those of a typical head cold,
with sneezipg and running at
the nose.
Many victims of this disorder
say they are suffering from
rose" instead of ebay" fever.
This is because, in their cases,
the pollen from roses produces
the inflammatory state of the
nose, and not any other pollen.
Ragweed and golden RCD are, Of
course, the usual offenders.
Rye and wheat, on the other
hand, not to mention ordinary
dust, may cause typical hay
fever symptoms in some indi-
viduals, while neither roses, rag
weed nor any of the other plants
affect them a particle. In fact,
a case is recorded in medical
literature of a woman who regu-

The Beauty

White beadlike masses form
under the skin surface when
the pore has closed, sebaceous
oils have collected, become
waxy. Before removing the
blemishes apply alcohol to the
skin. Slit the little point with
a steriliZed needle (hold the
point in a flame for a minute)
and press ever so gently with
finger tips covered with gauze.
Use alcohol again. To pre-
vent more little seeds from ap-
pearing, use cold water freely
every morning, massage every
night with a heavy emollient
after the face has been bathed
with hot water.
It seems ridiculous that what
one eats should affect the COM
plexion of ones nose, but true
it is. If the little beak is in
clined to blush, cut down on
rich gravieS, fried meats, hearty
dressings, pastries; they Aren't
any Of them very good for you,
anyway. Be true to the habit
of taking orange juice or to-
mato juice daily to supply vita
mines that help the constitu-
t1on to carry on. Don't fail to
have lettuce for luncheon or
dinner. Limit tea or coffee to
two cups a day.
Though the word exercise
may set a girls teeth on edge,
she surely can't object to
walking which is, after all, the
most delightful of all exercises.
Let her take up the slack in
her spinal column, set feet
firmly on the ground, let the
arms enjoy a graceful easy
swing, hold hips back and
tucked in, then march! The
step should be sufficiently
brisk to initiate the lungs, bring
warmth and moisture to the
skin surface. The complexion
benefits. Appetite is increased.
Fatigue of muscles makes for
restful sleep. Besides all this,
refreShment comes to the

CHAPTER XXXVn

Edna was one OF those Wom-
en- who are born with the
homemaking instinct. Better
than Dodie or Sharlie, she
knew how to live comfortably.
More than that she seemed
to enjoy making things pleas
ant not. only for herself but
for everybody near her.
It was her habit on Satur-
day afternoons to come home
early, laden with bundles. With
Q bunch Of flowers for the
dining room table, with an
armful of new magazines, with
o cake from the Elite Bakery
which sold the best baked goods
in the city, with a pound of
Barcelona filberts or a couple
Of shiny green alligator pears
for salad.
On the Saturday following
Sharlie's expedition with Mr..
Collins, she came home just as
usual, both arms filled with
paper covered packages Of vari-
Gus shapes and sizes. Above
them her eyes were bright and
smiling as she greeted Sharlie,
who let her in.
''Hello, there! Recovered
from your night out?" Her
voice was as cheerful as her
smile. But there was some
how a tiny differences tiny
coldneSs-in her attitude to-
ward the younger girl.
It was not so much anything
that she did that betrayed it,
but what she did not do.
Usually she and Sharlie spent
most of S aturday afternoon
washing and drying their hair,
doing their nails, washing and
ironing their collars and cuffs
for the next week.
But on this Saturday after
noon there was none of that.
Edna carried the cake she had
bought into the kitchen, put her
yellow chrysanthemums into a
tall vase in the living room and
vanished into her own room
with the magazines she had
brought.
Does she know I was out
with Mr.. Collins last night?"
Sharlie asked her mother at
dinner time. Dodie nodded.
"How can she help knowing
It? You were talking about
him last night all the time we
were getting you into your bed.
OF course she knows it,"
Sharlie went down the hall to
the door of Edna'S room and
quietly opened it. Edna was
stretched out on the bed in the
clean-looking blue and white
silk kimono that she had bought
for her vacation trip. Beside
her, on the bedSpread, were the
magazines she had bought; and
she lay staring up at the cell
ing Of her room as if she found
it much more interesting than
any reading matter.
Edna, what's the matter?"
Sharlie'S voice was very low.
"Are you peeved with me be-
cause I went out last night
with Mr.. Collins?"
Edna turned and got up on
one elbow. She lay there,
looking at her for a long min
ute, before she spoke.
"No, I'm not 'peeved.'
Sharlie," she answered in a
voice as low as Sharlie's own.
''I've just been wondering all
day. and all Of last night, too,
what you and Mr.. Collins
could find to interest you in
each other. You're so young,
Sharlie. You like to dance and
have a gay time-and he
doesn't. He doesn't like your
kind Of a gay time, at any

"DO You Love Him."
"How do you know what he
likes? You've never been out

at her.

Dear Miss Fairfax:
Last summer I met a boy for

told me how much he loved me,

Recently I wanted to make him

very angry, and I promised him
I wouldn't go out with them any
more.
Now he is starting to go out

larly contracted typical hay
fever whenever she came in con.
tact with horses; the melting
cause, it was found later, being
dandruff.
If, therefore, you are subject
to seasonal attacks Of this con-
dition, you should first OF all
determine which pollen or group
of pollenS is your enemy.
If this cannot be discovered
by oneself, the thing to do is
consult your family doctor.
Either he, himself, will make
certain skin tests to determine
which plants are upsetting you.
or he will recommend a spe-
cialist who does this sort Of
work. The procedure is SIM
plicity itself-just a tiny in
lection of different pollen solu-
tions under the skin, the same
as is done when testing for
food idiosyncrasies. If, after
a few minutes a raised and
reddish place appears it means
that that particular plant up
sets your system.
After the question Of the
pollen is settled, further injec-
tions of pollen solutions are
made at regular intervals and
in increasing doses. In this
way an immunity-that is, re-
sistance to the poison-is set
up, and after the patient has
been immunized he won't de-
velop hay fever during the sea-
sonal months, when he usually
does.
DR.. Kitsuta, of the Ohio Agri-
cultural Experiment Station at
Wooster, has discovered, not q
cure, but at least another way
of combating hay fever. This
consists of eating one yeast cake
day plus four teaspoonfuls Of
cod-liver oil three times each
day. In many individuals this
treatment surely helps. Its ad-
vantage lies in the fact that it
can be taken even after the
symptoms appear. When taken
for a few weeks in advance,
and in smaller doses, the same
treatment may act as a preven.
tive.
That a nerve factor often ex-
lists in hay fever cases cannot
be disputed. A thorough phySi.
cal examination is therefore ad-
visable, especially in severe
cases and in those of long
standing.
Those who can afford it may
escape hay fever by travelling
to a different climate. Most
people escape attacks when in
high, dry mountain air while
others are safest when sojourn-
ing at the seashore.
