Dos Condition
Is, Indicated
By Eyes
By LIZ HUME

The eyes should be far more
universally recognized as indie
ative Of a dogs condition,
for. Through, them one may to
a certain extent gauge mental
and physical health.
The eyes of the sane, sound
and nicely conditioned dog
will appear clean and clear,
free from running water or
other discharge. The lids will
be tight-fitting and not in the
least inf1amed.
Resilient
The eye muscles will be so
resilient that the pupil and
iris will show their correct
proportions according to the
light or shade in which the
dog happens. to be; it IS this
resiliency that gives a highly
intelligent expression as op-
posed to the CLASSY stare of
protruding eyeballs and un.
naturally dilated pupils.
The iris or colored portion
of the eye draws it's curtain
constantly back and forth over
the pupil at the bidding of
outer light and shade. The
pupil is extremely sensitive to
the action of light and the
muscles are ready to obey this
senSitiveness.
During the greatest light in
tensity, the iris, like a curtain,
covers the pupil almost entirely,
SO that just a tiny part of 1t is
exposed at the exact center.
Then, as varying degrees Of
darkness occur, the iris draws
back exposing the pupil and
making it appear larger. AS a
matter of fact, it is not larger;
it is merely deprived Of its pro-
tective covering at the time.
Care Needed
Care should be taken when
treating eye cases to turn the
laShes up and away as the ad'
ministration of liquids like
boracic acid or Salves like vase
line may glue the lashes to the
eyeball and promote additional
irritation.
When applying any eye medi-
cation open the lids with the
fingers Of one hand, then with
the other place the drops or the
salve directly on the eyeball,
finally rubbing the laSheS Of the
upper lid up, those of the lower
lid down in an effort to keep
the lasheS from contact with
the eyeball.

He's EntangIed
Dear Miss Fairfax:
AS I was regarded the best
player on our college football
team, and liked baseball, SWIM
ming, disc throwing as well, I
never seem to have any time
for girls and falling in love.
Then I got one of those
emergency jobs here in Wash.
ington, and for the first time
in my life met a delightful
woman Of the world. I am "a,
and T supposed she was about
the same age. It was a hor.
rible shock to me when dis.
covered she was 10 years older
and had been twice married
and twice divorced.
I fell in love with her, pro.
posed and was accepted; then,
someone told me her life story
which she does not deny.
My folks back home would
have q fit if + married a
woman 10 years older and one
who had been twice divorced,
but this lady thinks we should
be married Immediately as I
have been around with her so
much that she feels she has
been compromised. What would
be your suggestion in a case of
this sort? r. D. T.
Considering that the lady is
10 years older than you are
and has been twice divorced.
it's my honest opinion that be-
ing seen with a boy Of your
age will not compromise her
reputation very seriously.
And I hope you will get out
Of this ENHANCEMENT which
would seem to promise nothing
for you but trouble. Without
wishing to reflect on your
youth, in the least, the lady
sounds to me, like q cradle

Advice to the
LoveIorn
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX

His Love Letters Were Too
Dear Miss Fairfax:
More in fun, than anything
else, I began to write letters
to q certain girl. To tell you
the truth, I began this cor
reSpondence more as a lark
than anything else.
We both live in Washington,
and I saw the girl once or twice
a week, but I was bound to
throw her q series Of fine love
letters.
To which end, I went to
the Library and read the ef-
fusions Of Prosper Merimee, An
EngliShwoman'S Love Letters,
and other fervent literature Of
the same ilk.
TO cap the climax, I fell really
and honestly in love with this
girl and confided in her my little
hopes. And did she turn me
down-rather. How can I get
her back? DON.
You might try her on some
homemade love-letters which,
of course, may seem rather flat
after you've been Offering her
the worlds classics. But the
bush league love letters has
known to work wonders when
it's sincere.
I don't believe she is really
mad with you, because you
were just flirting when you
played the trick.
If she can't take a joke, why
worry?

LAS there was no report OF
you in San Mateo. I decided you
had got in trouble and were on
one of the many islands. Then
your boat was brought in with a
collision mat rigged. That was a
couple of days ago. Then I felt
sure that you were here"
why, Doctor?" Linda asked.
"Call it deduction. I saw the
boat. The collision mat could
not have been rugged without
beaching the boat, as she would
have filled too quickly. But if
she were beached then why were
you not in her? The leak was
stopped enough, and there had
been no more squalls. I knew
that Grain was an ex-Navy Of
ficer, and a sailor would not
leave a boat improperly secured.
Therefore somebody had set her
adrift. Only a child or q half
wit would do a thing like that.
I thought Of my apes. Then 1

"No. Mateo and a boy or two
