ECONOMY OF AMBULANT TREATMENT OF
 HEMORRHOIDS

The doctors here wanted me to go to the Veterans hospital for op- eration. I am glad learned about the injection treatment in your col- umn, for I am now cured and without leaving nome or losing. an hour from my work ..
 Letters like that are coming in constantly increasing numbers these days. Not only in reference to treatment of hernia but also in reference to the treatment of piles and other rectal conditions which formerly necessitated hospitaliZa- tion and operation and several days of discomfort or pain-and still do in communities where the doc tors are a shade too conservative in their attitude toward these new fangled methods promoted by low life health column conductors.
 I spoke .here a few weeks ago about the book recently published by Dr Thomas F. McNamara, Rochester, N. Y. on Injection Treatment of Internal Hemor- rhoids.' This book is for physi- clans and admirably describes the simple technic of tn einjection treatment.
 Personally I have never in my life given such treatment. So I'm just telling the public and any doc tors who care to listen in about the modern method. Doctors who wish to learn the technic of the method may get Dr McNamara's book: they can't learn it from me. obviously.
 Nor have I ever given injection

PARIS STYLES
By MARY KNIGHT

Paris (UP)-Gloves made into the sleeves of dresses and coats IS an idea set forth by Captain Moly- neux as both luxury and an econ- omy. A luxury in that they match perfectly the ensemble they are designed for, not only in color and material, but also in cut and line, and an economy in that they are worn only with that particular outfit, never are lost and save the wear and tear. of separate access sories,
 Another of his ideas is the per feet streamline silhouette from head to toe, many of his gowns for day and evening wear being cut all in one piece from shoulder to hem and diagonAlly with the seams under the arms. These also are in a new bias velvet shading from olive green to a pale lettuce. and from a midnight to sky blue.
 The thing to remember so far IS that clothes are tight fitting with deep slits, not alone for evening but also for the street. The gen. eral trend is toward the, effects Of 1900 and 1905 but slenderized and modernized. Hats, especially are reminiscent of "other days" and the use of ostrich feathers arounn the brims is extensive.

So she arose with an ap- pearance of amiability and began to open the collapsed day bed. Gray and dingy sheets were re- vealed and q discouraged looking gray blanket.

Hints for Hofrlefnakers By Jane Rogers

Some believe that any one who can boil water can cook corn on the cob. How many tender ear of corn has been allowed to tough en through long keeping or faulty cooking no one will ever know. In the first place, fresh corn will not remain succulent long after 1t Is pulled from the stalk. If you can get itsin the pot the evening of the morning it was picked so much the better. Straight from the stalk to the pot is a delight that only home gardeners can enjoy.
 Try this method next time you have corn on the cob. Place the ears in a large pot of boiling water to which has been added table, spoon of granulated sugar. Young corn will cook perfectly in five minutes. More mature corn re- quires from eight to ten minutes. Do not salt the water as salt has tendency to toughen corn. Sugar brings out its natural sweetness. If desired, salt the corn at the table,

 oh, well, tomorrow he would call her up and let her know about this opening at the publishing house. It might lead to something. Or perhaps he would drop her line, sit down at Lois little gues. room desk when he got home. He liked the idea of writing that girl q note. Something simple and friendly. He might even sugge,t their meeting in town for tea whenever she went to see Master sen.
 He got off the train at Larch. neck in a fine glow and swung up the street away from the station, smiling to himself. Yes. he would do that. He would write her at once and stroll out to the post box with it. She'd have it first thing in the morning.
 He could imagine what that girl looked like in the early hours. He didn't have to Imagine it. He'd see her no later than this morn ing. She was like some white and gold Undine, rising from the foam, he told himself poetically, liking the sound of the words.
 Falling asleep, an hour or two later, he wondered how soon he would have an answer from her.

ER YOUR CHILDREN
By Olive Roberts Bartoo
&MsS 57 NEz SfaIieS. sgc

Years ago, I read in one of Rider Haggard's about a hero imprisoned in a secret cave. He described the quiet and the darkness with such reality and the terror of that ab- solute silence so vividly that al- though the plot and story are gone, that chapter still fingers to haunt me.
 Prisoners in solitary confine- ment in deep dungeons often go made. The mold and vermin, the starvation and bodily torture are nothing, those who recover relate in their memoirs, compared to the laundering silence.
 Therefore it would seem that mans senses were not made to stand a void. They wre not made to experience silence. The silence of lone vast distances under the sky, the peace of night, and the revery of mountain tops-these are not voids. They are filled with sounds of nature. often indiscern- able but satisfying to the sub- conscious mind. One feels contact somehow with mysterious forces He belongs at last to the universe and something tells him so. It is different from the loneliness of im- prisonment between walls. Closet Punishment When a child is punished by be- ing shut away in a closet, to his jailer it is, just closet, cubicle in which the sinner can mediate on his sin, cut off from human souls.
 But to the poor little prisoner, with his .child's imagination. 1t is Rider Haggard's cave, the medic val dungeon, the pit of most frightful loneliness. Its silence he exaggerates, it's darkness and smallness are added horrors. He peoples 1t with monsters beyond the pale of fairy tales. There Is probably no agony of mind invented by man equal to that of completely black imprison- ment.
 Mother Lacks Imagination
 One would think that even the most ignorant would know this. And yet. only recently I talked to a mother who regarded this type of punishmnet as the mildest she could infiict. And she is not an ignorant person in the least.
 It was simply impossible for her to project her mind into dark hole where egress was impossible save at the pleasure of an angry person who had to cool off.
 The parent with any imagina- ton at all would never try 1t. It is a terrible thing. indeed.

The two classroom dresses shown in the sketch are not only extreme ly becoming to the schoolgirl but are both the type of frock that will stretch q rather limited wardrobe to it's utmost. They need little at- tention to retain heir prisine ap- pearance and that is an important item o a busy and popular student.
 The sweater and skirt effect at the left consists of a knitted top of black and white stripes with short utility sleeves and wide black suede belt. This young lady buckles her belt in the back, just to be diff ferent. The skirt of a lightweight black tree-bark wool has an invert- ed pleat at both back and front, and, since this fabric ha sa crinkly surface, it rarely needs pressing.
 Green corduroy forms the practi- cal frock at the right of the sketch. The four large patch pockets pro- vide plenty of carryall space and the zipper opening at the neck will save at least three minuets dress ing time. The corduroy in this dress is the new, fine-wale type that launders beautifully.

treatment for hernia. So I am scarcely qualified to instruct a physician in the technic of ambul- ant treatment for hernia. I hap pen to know the simple formula of the medicine some of the most competent physician-surgeons use in this treatment. Nothing secret about it, and it costs only few i cents for enough to treat dozen patients. I am glad, of course, to give the formula to any physician surgeon, that is, a Doctor of Medi- cine in good professional standing, other information to any other. l 1 believe, however, that knowing | but I decline to give this or any how to mix the simple medicine | used for the ambulant treatment of hernia (rupture, breech) doesn't qualify the physician-surgeon to attempt treatment. I believe no one is qualified to give such treat ment until he has had personal in- struction in the technic under a physician-surgeon who is master of the method-actual clinical in- struction, of course.
 Many of the large industrial or commercial corporations are giving the ambulant methods preference whenever possible in the treatment of employees, for the economy in working time or time off duty and also the economy in the way of hospital expenses.
 Perhaps the correspondent quot ed at the opening of today's har- angue could have had free hospi- tai care, being a veteran. But he happened to have a family he seems to like to live with, and job he apparently wants to hang on to. So he passed up the op- portunity for a loaf in the hospi- tai. Had the piles cured as ef- fectively as any operation could cure them and kept right at the business of living.
 It is not to the credit of Ameri- can medicine that the political highbinders at present running our medical organization see fit to op- pose and obstruct by every pos sible subterfuge or theoretical ob- jection they can trump up, these modern methods which real physi- clans employ with greater. success than crude surgery has ever known.

Sister Mary,S Kitchen
BY MARY E. DAGUE NEA Service StaR Writer

After the summers abundance
 of fruits and vegetables wanes,
 roasts and steaks come into their
 own again in the fall. However,
 instead of settling down to suc- ceSsion of roast, stCak or chop din- neds with stews and pot-roasts at regular intervals, why not try
 something out of the ordinary? The cut, manner of serving and seasoning provide a variety of
 changes for Company dinners or festive family occasions.
 English mutton chops will prove most popular with the men, folk. Yearling lamb should be se- lected for. them, and loin chops are best for the purpose. The butcher will remove the bone in ont piece. Then he will place strips of bacon or the lambs kidneys in the center
 of the meat and roll it up. Must Be Cut Thick After fastening it securely with
 small skewers or binding it with
 a cord he will cut it into slices about one and one-half inches
 thick and wrop each slice with q
 strip of bacon or larding pork.
 The chops can be ..broiled or
 planked. Allow one chop for each
 person to be served.
 If you want a particularly fes- | tive looking dish, serve them planked. To do this, first broil l the chops on one side only on a
 hot, well-oiled broiler. In the
 meantime heat the plank very hot
 and rub it with butter or other l fat. Place chops, cooked side
 down, on the plank and arrange stuffed tomatoes or stuffed pep
 pers or both about the chops and put the whole thing into a very
 ho oven to finish cooking. Serve
 on the plank, seasoning the chops
 we'll and garnishing with sprigs
 of watercress. Potatoes au gratin are good to serve with this meat dish. If you use both tomatoes | and peppers stuff the peppers with | succotash and the tomatoes with a
 mixture of celery and blanched | almonds.
 Crown of Lamb
 A crown of lamb is very decora- | tive if it Is properly cut. Usually | the entire rack Is used for 1t,
 and the roast is correspondingly l large and suitable for a company
 affair. With it's stuffiing it will
 serve eight or ten persons gener-
 ously.

GLORIFYING
 YOURSELF
Mey Alieie lert
6j9yTE NlTWI0KE iNI

Smooth, white arms and elbows. always an asset to a girls beauty, become even more important in the fall when it's time to start wearing elaborate, formal evening dresses. The sun-tanncd, rough ened skin that was quite fashion able on the beach simply has no place in glamorous bathrooms. So ment.
 First of all. get a good hand brush and a bit of pumice. Scrub the shoulders, arms, elbows and hands not only with washcloth and soap and water but with the little brush. Then. if your elbows are covered with dried skin. rub them once a week with pum- ice. Be extremely gentle and don't try to remove all the dead skin and discoloration the first time.
 Massage bleaching cream up- ward from fingertips to shoulders each time after you've washe them. Give it a few minutes to absorb and then remove with cleansing tissue. Apply a bleach ing lotion and let it dry before you get dressed.
 Remember that correct arm makeup will go long way toward covering up skin defects until you've had time to get rid ot those defects. Use your complex. ion foundation lotion on youi arms and powder them just as farefully as you do your face. Us ing cotton pads, pat on generous coat of powder, leave it for a few cess with a small complexion brush.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Muscle Buildius


 Can you suggest any foods can add to my daily menu which are muscle building? I am 40 years old and my flesh lacks muscle. (Miss G. s. H.)
 Answer-Send 10 cents in coin and stamped envelope bearing your address, and ask for "The Laht Brady Symphony" which describes and Illustrates some room gym- nastics which will help you to im- prove your muscle tone. No food makes muscle.
 Discussion in our Homemakers club as to whether too much anti toxin causes death (Mrs F. P. E.)
 Answer--More profitable to dis cuss whether lady may rouge, chew or smoke, and If so, where. Antitoxin is harmless in any dose. Too little is sometimes given; never too much.
 Child Walks Late Son refused to walk at 21 months. One day placed my belt that he play horse and I drive l fidence and learned to walk. Give cautious child some other idea than himself to think of, and his confidence wil grow apace and he will learn to walk. (E. K. W.) Answer--That is an excellent l suggestion. It is unwise to use baby-walkers or other artificia aids. But when the baby voluntar. l fly tries to stand and to walk: dc not prevent him. He will not try to use his legs before they art strong enough. They do not be- come strong if he does not uss them.
