COURTEOUS, soft-spoken Ambassador Car

diplomatic triumph on the eve of his departure
Tor Paris by being an honor guest at big fare
we'll luncheon in the Pan-American Union.
The occasion was remarkable
Representatives of twenty Latin American
nations-most of whom wrested their indepen-
dence from Spanish rule after bloody wars sat
unltedly at table honoring the envoy of Spain.
1t means that Cardenas has re-established His
panic solidarity in the Latin American corps of
diplomats
Spanish and English were spoken about
equally at the luncheon, and a smattering of
French.
After a brilliant speech, Cardenas became
the hero of the hour and Spanish eclipsed the
other languages. Portuguese was definitely out
Brazil is one of the few who knows how to talk
it, and he prefers French.
T TITLE DR.. Henri De Bayle. minister of

about doctors
Il will explain why there are so many physi-
clans in Latin American countries who become

often the big man. Take Nicaragua, for in
stance:
The President is physician -.
"Threefourths of the cabinet are physi-
clans 49,.
The minister to the United States myselD,
is physician -.
Nearly all the important men are physi-
clans"
Minister Finot of Bolivia leaned across the
table with a sly smile:
Excuse me, but was SANDING a physician,
too?" he asked quietly.
That ended the talk about doctors.

with the dining roo mchair and table. Mary is big enough now to fit an adult chair so that her feet touch the ground and her shoulders reach the top of the back rest. did suggest, however. that small pillow in the small of her back might make 1t more comfortab ble for her to sit straight and that a drawing board, tilted on a couple of books, would make a better working surface than the fiat ta- ble top. These little adjustments plus the good reading light which Mrs Johnson always provides, would help her to read and write comfortably without "sprawling" as her mother calls it. Mary IS growing fast these days, and must be careful of her posture if she Is to keep on growing straight. A school child does great deal of sitting and boring over books-and postural habits. We don't want shoulders and a poking head. More- lead to lazy habits of mind and general slackness.
 But as I explained to Mrs John- son, it's no use just telling Mary to sit up straight. Nor would it be any use my reading the child lec- lures on possible spinal curvature! What Mary needs is the right kind of equipment to help her sit straight, and an appeal to her im- mediate interests. She is keen to do well in games and sports, and she has a healthy desire to be att tractive. A well developed body will help her to achieve both of these goals.
 And while we were on the sub ject of games and sports I asked whether Mary was doing as much swimming as usual this year. Mrs Johnson said she and Bill were swimming at least once week at the pool. So suggested that Mary might practice her back stroke for q while, and that will automatically strengthen her back and shoulder muscles.

THE OLD IRON IS THE BEST

All medical authorities conclude from experimental studies as well as clinical experience that the old fashioned inorganic iron medicines are more efficacious in any form of anemia that are the modern much touted and hence expensive organic iron compounds.
 One of the old fashioned iron medicines which is now employed extensively in the treatment of simple anemia is iron-ammonium- citrate, or as 1t is officially known, iron and ammonium citrate. But But with this difference in admin istration. Today the well informed physician prescribes doses at least ten times larger than did physic- ians a generation eago. The old timer opined that a grain or two was enough to give in a dose. The doctor today gives at least fifteen grains at a dose.
 about the role of iron in physical economy than the doctor of yester- day knew. For one thing, we know now that approximately one-fourth of grain of iron day is all that 
 as our present knowledge of phy- siology and nutrition goes there is no reason to suppose that the body ever needs more than this iron ra- ton in illness. So the old timer, with his one-grain dose of iron, gave enough in one dose to last the pa- tient all day and half the night theoretically.
 But there's catch in this. I know we doctors have a lot of dumb theories and traditions, but we are discarding them as fast as may be consistent with the dignity of the profession. One of our dumb theories that has stuck too long is that all the medicine the patient swallows is utilized by the body.
 The healthy individual who has never received any iron in medi- cine nevertheless gets his iron ra- ton from his food. The anemic in- dividual, perhaps taking the same food, fails to get his iron ration from it. Why?
 Honestly, nobody knows. But physiologists studying the problem advance the hypothesis that iron given in medicine merely serves to

 Kitchen
BY SISTER MARY

Fillets of fish, wrapped in vegetable parchment paper and shipped either thoroughly chilled in iced containers or frozen solid and packed in insulated cartons which insure them against thaw- ing, are of special interest to homemakers. These delicious. boneless pieces of deep-sea fish are shipped from the Atlantic coast to cities and towns throughout the United States.
 There's no waste and fussing connected with fillets of fish. Freed from skin and bones, they are ready to cook after the sim pie process of unwrapping. And the ways of cooking them are nu- merous.
 Another point in their favor is their iodine content. Deep-sea fish are splendid source of iodine -one' of the most important fac- tors toward maintaining health.
 A very easy and delicious way to cook fillets of fish, is to broil them. Wipe each fi1let with a damp cloth, seasoning lightly with salt and pepper and put on a well greased dripping pan or fine wire broiler. Brush with melted but ter or other fat and place under gas flame or electric broiler. un- til well Drowned. Turn fish with a broad spatula, brush with meletd butter and broil until brown on
 With a coal range the fish is cooked over a bed of glowing coals, turning frequently until brown. It will take about fifteen minutes to broil fillets of average thickness. Serve on hot platter and garnish with thin slices of lemon sprinkled with minced pars- ley. Spread the dish with Mai tre d'Hotel" butter just before garnishnig.
 Maitre d'Hotel Butter
 Four tablespoons butter, 1-2 teaspoon salt, few grains white pepper, 1 tablespoon minced pars- ley, 1 lemon.
 Cut lemon in half and from each half cut two thin slices. Sprinkle these with half the parsley and use for garnishing. Work butter with small wooden spoon or fork until very creamy, adding salt and pepper. Squeeze juice from lemon and add slowly to creamed butter, beatig constantly.
 Stuffed FYllcts Baked in Tomatoes
 Four tablespoons butter or other fat, small onion, 3 cups coarse bread crumbs. 1-8 teaspoon powdered sage, l teaspoon salt, IA teaspoon pepper, milk, small fillets of. fish, 2 cups canned to- matoes.

| combine with sulphuretted hydro gen and other sulphur compounds in the intestine, and these sulphur compounds must be removed before the iron of food can be assimilated. This ingenious explanation accounts for the extraordinary success mod ern physicians have in the treat ment of anemia with large doses of iron. But it fails to account for the success with subcutaneous in- jections or inorganic iron-if they have any notable success with such treatment
 Anyway, here's more blood and better life to all our anemic read CTS, and don't care what brand of anemia they prefer. The recipe remains unchanged: You mix 1t yourself, unless you are utter inn becile-four ounces of iron and ammonium citrate Chats one item) in a pint bottle; then fill the bottle up with water. Dose: Tea spoonful after food three times day for at least three. months. Take it in little water sweetened with sugor and favored as you like.

HERE ARE EXERCISES TO KEEP THE CHIN FIRM


 Exercises keep necks supple, chins firm and help remove fat around lower jaws. The incest thing about exercises of this va riety is that they require little time and practically no effort. So sit down, comfortably, and begin.
 Drop your head backward as far as 1t will go: roll it to the left: around toward the front, letting it fall forward on chest, and, finally turn it toward your right shoulder. In other words slowly describe an arm with your head. Rest for moment and start again.
 Then try this one: Tilt your head backward, allowing the jaws to re- lax and open as you do it. When the head is as far back as it will go. slowly close your mouth. Feel the muscles pull, tighten and get a little needed exercise as you do it.. Relax and repeat several times.
 Use a batter under your chin or slap 1t with the backs of your hands until the skin is warm and stimulated. Then dash cold water all around the chin and lower part of the face. Cold water on the skin acts as an astringent and mus cle tightener and is a beneficial night treatment. If you use ice in- stead of water, be sure and wrap it in cotton cloth before you start rubbing.

And she's getting more and more round-shouldered."
 What kind of chair is she using?" I asked. An ordinary dining room chair" replied her mother; maybe she ought to have one of those new posture chairs and desk but we can't get them just now. She'll have to make out with the ordinary furniture. Buc she can sit straight # she wants to-"

 Wrap a wire to the stem to make 1t double, wrap for about 6 inches, first with crepe paper and then with the shniy transparent mate- rial. Leave about inches un- covered.
 To make the base, use two 14- inch circular cardboards, the upper one covered with gold paper. Paste ruffled green strip to one card board allowing it to extend be- yond the edge. Push the stem wires through the gold colored cardboard, bend the wires at right angles, and gum tape them. Glue the two bases together, and finish with bow of gold ribbon.
