Fall-harvest time for old Man Accident. He anticipates bump- CT crop of bicycle riders, skate whizzers, sfnall-wagOn owners and sundry. Among the sundry are baby buggies and strollers. During Safety WeSek I listened. to almost incredible statistics on iccidents. In the suminer I saw so many narrow escapes myself, l had to believe those figures.

 curve, or reaching the top of a rise in the road, to see a bicycle and rider In the Middle of the Track immediately ahead, barely giving a chance to swerve.
 Please tell the children for their own safety's sake to Keep to, the very margin of the road. If there kare two, tell them to so single file, not side by side.
 Lights for Bicycles It is almost impossible to see g bicycle at twilight. Alt should have rear lights and headlights, too. when bicycles carry double car go, a youngster perched on the handle bars, the engineer is blind ed,
 Children usually pay no atter- ton to traffic lights They shoot out of dfive-ways from behind hedges aild parked care right into the vehicular stream.
 It would be so much better, so much safer for them if they were warned to stop, look and listen as they would for a railroad track. | A street is quite as dangerous. And, too, they would be helping everyone if they would follow traffic rules about holding out their hands to let drivers know what they intend to do, and ring ! ing bell as they pass slow moving car.
 The rider who habitually holds to an auto or a street car with one hand is almost sure to be killed sooner or later.
 Small wagons have no business in the center of a busy street or road. The chances of such chill dren to escape injury is about fif- ty-fifty only.
 Taboo Skating in Streets
 Skaters should be told what streets are safe. I would not al. low a child on skates to cross any street known for thick traffic. And I'd put a taboo on middle-street skating.
 Drivers, whenever possible, will wait for a baby buggy to get across corners. But they cannot see what Is ahead "before" they turn and "afterwards'' it may be too late to stop. We live near a busy and dangerous intersection, and have seen mothers and nurses plunge forward because the lights said to, without a glance toright or left. There. are eight ways to look. Why not take another five minutes and find a better place to cross? This chance-taking with baby is be- yond ability to understand.
 A street is railroad of fast expresses even more dangerous because cars and trucks are entire iy unpredictable. Treat it as such. Coach the children on the rules. It is worth while.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
 Analine Dyes


 Son works in chemical plant. He graduated from the University of ------ three years ago. His clothes are saturated contin- uously with deep red or maroon dye which eats holes in all his clothes. Will this job mean his life or health? (Mrs G. M. F.)
 Answer-The plant where your son works is we'll equipped with safety devices for the protection of workers. I am unable to advance an opinion without specific data about the nature of the chemicals your son, being a chemist, could give me the information.
 Fatal Fifth
 Some time ago you told how the thinking power is slowed down by a drink of wine, highball or cock tail, or a glass of beer. Please give me a reference which I may use in a talk to young men about Alcohol and Health (M. E. H.)
 Enswer-Physiologists have de- termined by precise Scientific meas- urement that the reaction time is slowed from one-fifth to two-fifths of a second by a drink of wine, USSk VI HAAAohOys FA6oAS AVA J0dA self how far a car win travel be- fore the driver, under effect of a glass or two, can act to avoid dam ger. Undoubtedly this is the ex- plantation for much of the daily toll of traffic accidents. Tn this land of liberty any one who has the price can be his own judge as to whether he or she was "intoxi- cated" in such emergencies. Tn Sweden every police station keeps on hand boxes with capillary tubes for the use of physicians in taking a drop of blood from the person suspected of being under undue all coholic influence. If the test of the drop of blood shows more than 1 per cent alcohol, intoxication is proved regardless of whose scion the culprit may be.

 You mean the woman?" Bleek- CT asked.
 Exactly" Griff said. "tIe would see that the woman was removed from the picture. Either by seeing that her lips wer sile1ced, or by seing that she was placed in Q position where she was not readily accessible to those who were in vestigating Morden's death. Re- member this, that the murderer knew that Morden was working for the newspaper. He knew that Morden was working to uncover evidence against Cathay. He doubt less surmised that Morden was making daily reports. He didn't know the nature of those reports. Morden told you over the tsle- phone that he didn't wish to men ton any names but the man who murdered htm-and the crime in dicatas that 1t was a man-didn't know how much Morden had told you" E
 Blocker nodded thoughtfully.
 Therefore," qriff said, II would suggest that you do two things. That you cpnceptrate upon Anding Mary Briggs and that you make Q complete investigation of every disappearance case where the party who disappeared was a wo- man, and that the time of disap- v1n s~ = I Q hoprs.', '

 'Then you can use them if it's economically advantageous for you to do so. But don't gather any facts. All I do Is interpret the facts that are gathered and suggest the direction in which a search should be prosecuted for addition al facts. Also, I play human check ers."

 "That's what I call it." Griff said. "A lot of detectives monkey around with dead cIews. They take some inanimate object and attach 9 great deal of importance to 1t.

Your Teeth and Your Health ByDR. j. M WISAN
 Chairman Council Mouth Hygiene Jersey Society
Good Teeth Aid Scholarship

(Note: This is one of 3 series of thorities in the dental profession obtained by Dr. Wisan for this papor.)
 Soon after the turn of the twen- tieth century, due to the activ- ities of that great English physi- elan, Hunter, the medical and den. tai professions became aware of the danger of dental infection. With this in mind a few dentists, pioneers in dental public health work, decided to find out the ef- fects of dental disease on the work of school children. So in 1910 with the help of Miss o'Neill, principal of the Marion School, Cleveland, an experiment was conducted.
 What the Study Revealed
 Dr. E. L. Pettibone, who is now Chairman of the Committee on Dental Health Education of the American Dental Association, ex- plained the study for my benefit.
 We took a class of about thirty children gave them thorough den- tai treatment, taught them how tp brush their teeth and how to eat Cat that time we did not know of vitamins and the value of such foods as milk and orange juice and cod liver oiD. The nurse visited the homes to sell the idea to the parents and see that our sugges- tions were carried out.
 we learned then that the prop CT care of the mouth meant q great deal to the health of the growing child. Besides, many members of the class showed remarkable i'm provement in their class work. In fact most of them skipped ono grade and some two grades.
 Influence of the Study
 'what was most pleasing was the spreading of the influence of our study. Brothers and sisters of the pupils with whom we were

FOR ASTHMA. EMPHYSE1fA, ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS OR CHRONIC BRONCHITIS. PRACTICE B. B.

BRONCHITIS, PRACTlCE R. b.
 (This is one of series of arti- cles dealing with winter cough. Others will follow at intervals of several days.)
 To the layman it is all asthma. But we doctors are bit more fin- ical about it. Wheezing and difa- cult or labored breathing is the most striking symptom in all four conditions, but the character and cause of the trouble is not the same in all; consequently the same treatment cannot serve in every case where there is wheezing and coughing and hard breathing. But don't let me stop you, MT Wise- acre, If you are about to try some nostrum; I'm just an ordinary doc- tor with nothing to sell.
 Asthma is a functional derange- ment and not an organic disease. In this respect it is akin to epilep- sy. That is to say the derangement inanifests itself by an attack or seizure at intervals, and in the in- terim there Is no physical sign or clue by which the physician can determine that the pationt is asth- matic or epileptic, as the case may be. Of course one may be subject to asthma and also have chronic bronchitis, and the chronic bron- chitis perists indefinitely and is rec ognized at any time the physician happens to examine the patient. But true spasmodic bronchial asth- ma is a periodical disturbance like migraine.
 Emphysema is atrophy or thin- ming of the walls between the air. spaces or vesicles in the lungs, so that the lungs remain constantly distended with air, blown up, as it were. This occurs in some in- stances as an hereditary affection, but usually it develops as conse-

Sister Marys Kitchen
By MARY E. DAGUE NEA Service Staff Writer

Why on earth do you suppose more people don't realize that one of the finest dishes on earth is made of fresh quinces stewed until they are a lovely amber col or in what water clings to them after rinsipg, a very little sugar (too much spoils their own dis tinctive flavor), one stick of cin- namon and a clove or two? You don't even need cream with these, for the syrup is thick and rich.
 Canned qNinces make not only good winter desserts but will work into the salad course if you put them up without sugar. And for supper on a < cold inter night, nothing is more delicious than hot biscuits, the golden butter melting into their snowy hearts, slathered oyer with quince honey.
 To can qpinces for salad, wash the fruit. Dip in boiling water and let stand five minutes. Plunge at once into cold water and drain. Pare, cut in halves or quarters and remove cores. Pack in steri- lized jars, adjust rubbers, pour over medium syrup and half seal. Process for forty minutes in hot water bath or ten minutes at fif- teen pounds pressure in steant pressure cooker.
 Quince Chips
 Six pounds quinces, 10 cups granulated sugar, 1-3 pound crys- tallizcd ginger 3 lemons.
 Pare and cut quinces in thin slices, removing core. Wash lem- ons and cut in thin slices, remov- ing seeds and as much of the con- meeting tissue as possible. Mince ginger. Cover quince with water and cook until water is evapo- rated. Add lemon, sugar and gin- ger cook until mixture is thick. Pour into jelly glasses and cover with parafine.
 Quincc Marlnalade
 This marmalade is delicious added to mincemeat. about 4 ta- blespoons to a pie.
 Three pounds quinces, 1-2 pounds apples, ? cups sweet cider suar.
 Pare, quarter and cose quinccs and apples. Put into a baking dish with cider, cover and bake in a slow oven until fruit is tender. Add water as necessary. The cider will thicken and be absorbed and the mixture must be kept mois. enough to prevent scorching nn- til tender. When tender. measure and add cup sugar to each cup of fruit. Cook, stirring constant iy until thick and jelly like. Pour into sterilized jlely glasses and cover with parafine.
 Qiiiiicc Honey
 Pare and core quinces. Crate or put through fine knife of food chopper. TO 8 cups of chopped quince add 1 cup of water and cook until tender. Slowly sift in cups granulated sugar and cook fifteen or twenty minutes. Pour into sterilized jelly glasses or jars and seal.

 As far as beauty preparations are concerned, modern women in- sist on two things-that each cos metic be fairly simple to use and at the same time thoroughly eff cacious. These days no girl has time to dawdle over her daily beauty routines, and since she wants the most for her money she simply will not use anything that doesn't show results within a req sonable length of time. Knowing this, cosmeticians have outdone themselves to place on the mar ket many double-duty prepara- tions.
 For instance, there's a new eye lash ointment which, in addition to keeping eyelashes and brows shiny and well-groomed. actually promotes their growth. You use 1t lavishly at night after you've cleaned your face and sparingly in the morning after you have put on your other cosmetics. Within few months your lashes will be thicker, more luxuriant.
 There's a new liquid mascara, too. It's not a dye, but it does stay on for hours and hours. Use cream-not water-to remove it. This one. since it doesn't streak, can be put on lower as well as upper lashes. When you've finished brush your eyebrows with the same brush.
 Remember that it's no longer considered smart to tweeze eye brows into thin, pencil-like- lines. Little hairs that grow down on the lids and across the bridge of the nose should be removed. of course. When that has been done, put aside your tweezers and rely on brushing to keep your brows beautiful.
