YOURSELF

No gift delights the invalid more
than a box of beauty preparations.
They keep her amused for hours
at a time, and, in addition, have an
excellent psychological effect.
If YOU can ascertain the things
which would be good for her par
ticular type of skin, 80 much the
better. It may be that she needs a
nice bleaching cream to help re-
move sallowness due to a long ILL
ness. Some bleaching creams slim
ulate circulation and, in doing so,
aid the complexion.
Perhaps an astringent eye cream
would please her. There are many
such creams on the market today
and they are valuable for anyone
who has lines, either deep burrows
or tiny crows feet, around the
eyes. Such a cream should be pat
ted into the skin around the eyes
at night and left on while you
sleep. Tell the receiver OF your
gift to be very gentle when she APP
plies eye astringent cream. She'll
derive no benefit from 1t II she
pulls or stretches the skin as she
rubs 1t in.
A thick nourishing cream Is
helpful to skins that are dry and
practically without natural oils. A
jar of 1t would appeal to any girl
whose skin has dried out from
weeks of confinement in a steam
heated hospital room.
Toilet water and cologne are nice
gifts too. You can get either one
in huge jugs which are decorative
beside the bed. When rubbed on
after the bath, they help to revive
dropping spirits. Exquisite toilet
soaps in her favorite scent will
please the invalid too.

tites The first thing to be affect
ed by this shut-in, munching, ir-
regular life is appetite.
So what is to be done with Ted
of with Betty of Grace or Lou, or
all four, IL you have four dis
gruntled 6ffsprings on your hands
as the year opens?
Conform to Schedule
Then a stop-watch used on
schedule. Get the children rounded
up for bed on the dot-the old
dot and even a bit earlier.
See that meals for the next week
or two are particularly simple
and wholesome. A little more milk
to drink too is a splendid idea.
Get in fresh air IL you can do
so without freezing IL the tempera-
ture drops again to zero. If neces-
sary put muslin over partly open
windows or keep some safe" heat
on at night. Air will make cheeks
rosy and that is what we are af-
ter. On warm nights let in lots
of air.
Cod liver oil is grand pick-me-
up for any listless, pale child,
young or old. Don't think of 1t as
merely an infant tonic. 1t takes
the place of sunshine for every
one. Good old Vitamin D!
Don't expect rosy cheeks back in
!, one day, but in a week there should
be q difference. And sweeter tenn
pers should be in order. If Betty
keeps on declining, take her to the
doctor.

Hypopituitary Obesity

Hypopituitary Obesity
It may be that these types of
obesity. due to deficient ductless
gland function are congenital,
that is, the glandular deficiency
is present at birth but the effects
become manifest only after a lapse
of years. In the type of obesity
due to failure of the pituitary
gland function the girl or young
woman, perhaps all in a few
weeks, acquires a girdle Of fat
around the hips and across the
middle of the back, and fat pads
above the knee on the inside of
the thigh and perhaps about the
lower third of the leg. plano
legs. At The same time the face,
neck and the upper half of the
body seem almost emaciated, by
comparison with the lower half,
except that there is likely to be an
unsightly pad of fat on the upper
arm.
There, there. That's enough.
The chief characteristic of hypop-
ituitary obesity is the dispropor-
ton between the upper half and
lower half of body, and especially
the disproportion between the
waist and hip measurements. The
perfect feminine figure has a waist
measurement of 20 inches and a
hip measurement of 40 inches
(woman aged 80, IS inches talD
Perhaps I should say rather the
conventional feminine figure-it Is
an arbitrary ideal arrived at by
measuring Greek statues ano
modern women. The average Of
$4,000 insured women was height
"a inches; weight, 1873 pounds.
To bring about not only reduc-
ton but redistribution of fat Is
the purpose of treatment In these
cases of hypopituitary obesity.
In some cases this Is best ac-
complished by hormone, endo-
crime, ductless gland treatment
alone. In others diet and exercise
will give satisfactory results with
out any medication. In most cas-
es, however, a judicious combin.
ton of dieting. exercise, and
glandular therapy Is advisable. Ir
any case 1t Is a job for a doctor
and the doctor must be a gooc
| one.
Don't go way mad. I'm going te
offer several tried and true diets
when we get around to that par,
of the course. No freak or fac
stuff, though. If you're looking FOL
Hollywood hokum or propaganda
for the fruit raising and import
ing industry, try elsewhere.
| Just to give you an idea and q
little encouragement let me SAL
that 1t is a scientific fact and no
q mere assumption that an indi
vidual may gain 20 pounds in 6
year by eating one extra slice Of
bread and butter each day, sa,

meals indulgence. BY the same to-

"They haven't looked in the

said. 1.-THE murderer would want

The girl nodded. II suppose So"
she agreed. There wouldn't be any
window boxes now. Well then, I'd
lok somewhere else. Maybe"
She was interrupted by the ring
ing of the door bell. Bannister
said, EXCUSE me-" and went out
into the hail. He opened the door
to face a man and woman. The
man was well dressed, rather heav-
lily built and dark. The woman
stood at one side and behind him.
1t was the man who spoke.
"1s Miss Juliet France here?" he
asked. "We'd like to see her."

appetiZing and unusual.
To begin with potatoes in one OF
their simplest cooked states-boil-
ed. A good method of variation
is to dice the cold boiled potatoes
and reheat them in a tomato sauce.
Then Just before serving sprinkle
grated cheese over the top. II you
use the canned tomato sauce, well
and good, but IL not cook 1 table,
spoon butter and tablespoon
flour until hubby. Add / cup to-
matoes rubbed through sieve
and simmer until thick. The flavor
is improved If, in addition to the
seasonings Of salt and pepper, two
or three cloves and teaspoonful
Of minced onion have been heated
with the tomato before straining.
If you are having an oven dinner
put the diced potatoes and tomato
sauce in a baking dish and reheat
1t in the oven.
Another good and simple way Of
utilizing diced boiled potatoes Is
to reheat them in q cheese sauce.
Add four tablespoons grated
cheese to a cup of hot white sauce.
Pimento cheese is surprisingly
good. The dish can be served az
creamed potatoes or the mixture
turned into a buttered baking
dish, covered with buttered crumbs
and reheated in the oven until the
sauce bubbles up through the
crumbs.
