Comrade E. H. of Newark. writes:
MY granddaughter, age IA, must
have trouble with her stomach.
Every time, after meals, she gags as
she has lots Of gas in her stomach,
no pain; she eats wei. She is fun
of life, but her mother worries
about this stomach trouble, as her
father died three years ago of cam
Ger. Her mother makes only IS q
week and consulting a doctor here
costs money"
No Fear Of Cancer
Many girls at fourteen have
stomach complaints, and the chief
complaint Is that Of gas. The gas
(belching) can be due to several
things, such as, eating too fast,
swallowing air with each gulp of
food, eating q diet which forms
gases, such as, almost entirely COM
posed of vegetables, or nervousness.
Cancer is not to be feared at her
age, even though her father died Of
1t. The fact that she is otherwise
healthy, has no pains with her gas,
and has lost no weight at all, is in
her favor.
The fact that her mother makes
only S. a week, that none OF you
can afford any of the decencies in
life, not even medical care, in a SEN
sitive high school girl, is enough to
give her nervous indigestion with
belching.
We advise a diet which contains ?
liberal amount of meats and fats
in addition to the vegetables. She
requires no medicine. Show her this
letter and tell her that in Soviet
America she will live to see less
cause for her complaint.

What 7he Doctor Says BY DR. S. J. CRUMBINE, GENERAL EXECUTIVE AMERICAN CHILD HEALTH ASSOCIATION
it which she gladly accepted.

lift which she gladly accepted.
 We chatted for few minutes about her work in the new grade, but all the while we were talking I had a feeling that something was missing. Suddenly I realized what it was. Mary had her books with her as usual, but no lunch box.
 I commented on the fact, and asked Mary if she had forgotten it. "Oh, no, doctor," she answered, I'm not taking my lunch any more. Bill and 1 are both using the school cafeteria now" But thought your mother didn't like the school cafeteria much? know she used to say that she could give you children a better lunch than you would pick out for yourselves from the cafeteria She did say that, doctor" said Mary, land she used to say the food looked so unappe- tizing at school. But we've remod- elled the whole cafeteria this year painted the room and the furni- ture and fixed it up with flowers you should come in and see 1t some day" "I certainly will," I replied. land do they provide the kind of food you like, Mary?" Mary nod ded. I'm always hungry for lunch now," she said. That sounds good. Have they got a new cook ?' 1 asked. Not only that, doctor. " said Mary, "but we've started a new scheme all through the school. Just about 12 o'clock, when we're all wishing for lunch, the cafeteria people send around the days menu, and we all discuss it and decide what we're going to eat. In class, I mean" The teacher too?" l asked. "Oh yes. She's awfully in- terested in what we choose, and she helps with suggestions if VIC can't make up our minds"
 It seems to me splendid idea. Mary and her school fellows arc learning in a very practical way what constitutes a satisfactory meal-that is if the teacher knows her business, and l gather that she does. Children cannot be expected to know instinctively how to make up a we'll balanced meal. A great deal can be don by talking about it, but still more can be done if the discussion is followed at once by practice. And of course a good meal in the middle of the day means a lot to a child at school.

PARIS STYLES
By MARY KNIGHT

Paris (UP)-There Is little Hull nuow between the storms. Most of the fashionable Parisiennes and notables of other nationalities who generally enjoy the season in the French capital, are still basking in the sun of various international meccas. The trek back to Paris will | begin in a few weeks and then the | fashion fun will start.
 Thies exodus from Paris dur ing July and August gives every body time to think over the fashion whirligig and to come off the dizzy heights to contem- plate sanely upon the seasons best wearing apparel.
 A truism it is, that there is enough and to spare, of designs and colors and fabrics. What ever coutnires stay on or go off the gold, silver or any other metal standard, the world of fashion is going in for all the appearances of luxury, comfort and practicality- all with one big bang. Starting out in the morning we will be as de- mure as timid bird, somber but chic; in the afternoon we unfold our wings and pluck out few more colorful feathers of plumage. By evening the wings can spread out to the full glory of the pea cocks tail!
 Rich, imperial satins, luxurious heavy lanes, and practically all other materials heavily threaded with metal or studded with stras or tiny chips, sequins or beads these are uses not only for formal evening, but as well for semi for? mai occasions, and rarely for in- formal affairs when the design Of the ensemble is almost tailored in severity-a thing that counteracts the richness of the materials.

DP YOUR CHILDREN

Are children born with a sense of right and wrong? There Is lit- tie to prove it if they are.
 Gradually, however, when they get over babyhood certain mental policemen do develop Exhibitions we call them) that would be there, it is thought, even if no one said word to them about doing wrong"
 Two savage children without anyone to give them an inkling of theft, murder, or harm to another would in time develop recogni- tion of each others rights.
 However, that natural inhibi- tions are not present to any ex- tent in babyhood is pretty well ac- knowledged. Indeed some author ities go so far as to say that ba- bies. are born with. criminal in- stincts.
 Babies Aren't Criminals
 This, I think, is hooey. They aren't. I declare this fiatly. What they are born with is the "self" instinct. Everything they do Is to develop self. They have a lot of learning and growing to do. and nature greedily seizes on every way and every means to get that "self" going, both mentally and physically.
 The selfishness of early child hood Is not real selfishness as we know it, but an order from Mother Nature to appropriate every right and privilege that helps the self instinct to expand.
 Once this. Is done and the little fellow or little girl are establish ed as real people in tough world. nature then begins to let up a lit- tie. Very, very slowly come rea- son, and with 1t the preventive instincts that shape the conduct of the child to less primitive urges and to advance generosity and nat ural kindness.
 Generosity Slow to Bud Yes there is natural generos- ity in the child of three or four. It may bud even younger. But parents get impatient. Nature, of course, won't do 1t all. Nature did not form "social' law. so we have to continue where nature leaves off.
 All training toward good should be gradual and tactful. A gar- dener can kill a young plant and even stop the budding by rough handling and by stifing. It needs care. Children are like plants. It is wrong to call the tiny child
 "bad." He might be "cross" when
 routine is irregular or he gets too
 tired or too nervous or too hYn-
 gry, or when the self" instinct is too greatly interferred with, but L Whatever children are they are
 ed the word wicked" for our own l convenience.

SYNOPSIS

BOOTS RAEBURN, IS, elopcs with RUSS LUND, handsome swimming instructor. and almost immediately realizes the marriage fs a mistake. When Russ goes to Florida, promising to send for her later, she goes to work In a department store.
 She meets DENIS FENWAY. young author, and EDWARD VAN SClVER. wealthy and so- cial1y prominent.
 Months pass and Russ does not write. Then comes word that ne has been killed in motorboat accident.
 Through Dents Boots gets a fob in a book shop, Her mother comes to tell Ter that her father has had stroke. Boots realizes her parents need financial help ! and goes nome to live.
 Edward asks her to marry him and Boots is tempted to say yes.
 CHAPTER XL
 Gradually Boots began to ac- cept the situation. Edward was the man Fate had cast into the role of savior for her. There seemed to be no doubt about that. And she was lucky, wasn't she, that he was such a darling? Everyone liked him--six feet. two inches of solid worth, generous. pen-hearted. IT he was bit unimaginative surely no one could rightfully complain of that. Boots had made one stlpu- lation; there was to be no formal engagement no announcements. But one of these days after the first of the year she and Edward would be married very quietly at St Johns and later slip away Tor a Mediterranean cruise.
 Edward came to meet her these nights with the pocket of his big coat bulging with folders. The cover of one showed brown wom- an with a nccklet of scarlet flowers lazing on blazing sands. The sky overhead was a brilliant, unnatural blue.
 "Do you good, all that sun, dar- ling" he would say fondly. "You're a hot house plant. Ycu'll love that
 She responded as enthusiastically as she could. It was what she had always wanted, wasn't it? The easy life. and the bright beaches, and the sunshine? And Edward, ever so tactful, had spoken of the al lowance he would make her par ents. He dld everything of the kind in kingly fashion; no one could be offended.
 But there was another point upon which Boots was adamant. She would work at the Bay Tree until the fast moment. Edward could not dissuade her.
 It was curious with all her trou- bles settled and her responsibility about to be taken from her, that her heart should like like a stone in her breast, her step lag. An, but she was tired she reminded her self. She wouldn't fail Edward. once she married him. She would make him a good wife. One of these days there would be hand some. solid little brown-haired babies in their house and Edward would be proud of them and of hef. "iMarcus Adrelius and Epictetus? she would come out of daZe to say swiftly to some customer. Yes madam. Right here. We have 1t in limp leather. too. if you'll like that. For a gift? The blue cne." She sold Falence and Copenhagen ware and took orders for brass kettles and crystal swans all though the busy pre-Christmas season without evef full realizing what she was doing or why. She smiled at Frances and talked brightly about nothing al all and every time the shop door

Or would she have heard of it, if he had been? Well, no matter. He had been out of sorts that night; he had held her in his arms and kissed her lightly and wantonly. without thinking. That was the sort of man he was! And she had not heard from him again. It was better to fix ones thoughts on such man as Edward who had solid worth to recommend him.

Thet new fall hairdress styles are positively queenly. This is no time to cover up foreheads and ears. The Katharine Hepburn coiffure has had it's day. Gone arc bangs and little girl hair styles. In their place are sophisticated modes suited to the new elegance in fashions.
 A girl, if she wants to be smart, must comb her hair upward from the nape of the neck, arrang ing the bun or the little curls, de- pending on the length of her hair. high on the crown of the head. The effect will be to make her look taller, more regal.
 One of the smart high-in-the- back cultures is being introduced by Rene Rambaud of Paris at the Official Hairdressers' October show in New York. The hair is waved back from the forehead and swept upward from the nape of the neck The ends are arranged in dozens of tiny ringlets, held in place by invisible pins.
 Another chic hair dress, seen on Fifth Avenue the other day, car ried out the same idea with long uncurled hair. The woman had brushed her shiny locks straigh, backward, allowing her ears and forehead to show. Then she had piled her hair into wide, flat bun and pinned 1t up on the crown of her head. On her ears were small button earrings. Earrings incidentally, lend a finishing touch to the new cultures. Remembe, that small ball and button types are better than long, dangling l ones.

 Mother, will you help me witl, this example. Teacher said I'd have to stay in unless got it."
 All the early morning cries on mother who must be able to re- member where everybody. has pat everything, answer any questions. however puzzling. and still keep her mind on the main issue, which is to get sufficient hot nourishing food down small, often rebellious throats against a long, hard morn ing.
 A substantial breakfast dish that children love Is rice omelet. In this the busy housekeeper may combine cereal, eggs and tomato sauce all in one dish to supply three much needed food elements for the daily diet.
 Served with crisp toast which provides exercise for the teeth, ready by the time schoolbooks are in their straps and small faces clean and shining. The rice should be cooked the night before.
 Rice Omelet
 One cup cooked rice, cup milk, 1-2 teaspoon salt, Is tea spoon pepper, 3 tablespoons but ter. eggs.
 Heat milk and add cooked rice. 2 tablespoons butter and salt and pepper. Beat well and add the we'll beaten yolks of eggs. Be sure the yolks are beaten until thick and lemon colored, Fold in whites, which have been beaten until stiff. Melt remaining butter in a hot iron spider or omelet pan. Turn pan until thoroughly coated with butter and make sizzling hot. Pour in omelet mixture and let cook on top of the stove for two minutes to brown the bottom. Then cook inn a hot over until well puffed and firm to the touch. Fold and turn out on a hot platter. Serve with tomato sauce or fresh toma- toes cut in slices and dipped in melted butter and broiled.

ANGINA PECTORIS or ANGINA
 OF EFFORT.

Angina pectoris, breast pang,
 neuralgia of the heart" is not a definite disease. So designated are various cases of arterial harden ing or heart deficiency in which effort, strain or emotional excite
 ment gives rise to distress or pain which is felt either in the chest. in the throat, in the epigastrium or in the left arm. Classically ,t is felt in the throat, and hence the name angina, which originally signified checking. When the pain is felt in the epigastrium the vic- tim, being a wiseacre, ascribes I, to 'indigestion' and plies his stomach with all sorts of things for that "acid' or "gas' or what
 ever the poor chap imagines he has.
 In not few cases of angina the condition is entirely due to ex- cessive indulgence in tobacco. Tha, this is true we infer from the in- effectiveness of treatment as long as the patient persists in the to- bacco habit, and the complete ces- sation of attacks after the habit is broken. .. r-
 People-formerly we might have said men, but now now-who suf-
 fer serious functional ailments from hoggishness in the use of tobacco
 sometimes ask how long it will
 take to get the nicotine or the
 tobacco out of the system. The
 nicotine or tobacco may be entirel,
 eliminated within a day or two af-
 ter the tobacco is stopped. but the
 damage done by the hoggishness
 may require months or years tc
 repair. Think of this, dimwit, mex,

PREPARING FOR WINTER

Now is the time to get the house in shape for winter.
 Summer screens and awnings should be taken down and stored in a dry place. Slip covers and thin curtains ought to go to the laundry.
 Scatter rugs should be sent to the cleaners and then packed In moth balls.
 Be sure that your floors are carefully scrubbed. waxed and pol ished before you put down winter rugs, and that walls are dusted if not actually washed before you hang your pictures.
