PARIS STYLES
By MARY KNIGHT

Paris-(UP-A winter of gra- cious formality. A designer of the most gracious of these. for nal gowns, whose house Is up in the Champs Elysees. says: 'I have designed some truly lovely things for the festive moments dresses that are imbdued with gracious spirit of dignity.
 'The materials are heavy, the skirts are wide, the coiors are restrained. I do not like rainbow effects in the evening, and therc- fore most of my models arc white with a touch of brilliant color in q sash or the facing of q bodice.
 q have used heavy white bro- caded silk for dress with a tight Iow-cut bodice and stiff full skirt. The bodice is drawn up front and back with bright green laces which then criss- cross around the shoulders. The same color scheme appears In Il very attractive gown for enter tainlng at home, that is com- posed of a flaring coat of thick white satin over q slip of emcr- adl green velvet"
 That sounds like winter of grace, doesn't 1t? And he has made another gorgeous creation of silver lame for a tailored blouse with neat sash down the back, worn with a black vel vet skirt. Another adorable little thing in brown satin, just like an old fashioned daguerrotypc. He uses White corded silk for a grand dame" affair with velvet boWs OH the shoulders.

If the thermometer registers above normal keep the child in bed and give a liquid dict, Probably better call the doctor. for the first symptoms of many chill drens diseases seem to be "just a cold"

Redress From Winters Woes
Jos To Spring Into New Clothes
Though Season : LagS

When the holiday season is over, 1t is Spring as far as clothes are concerned, no matter what the weather or the weatherma1 says about it. You feel an urge 10 break the monotony of that winter coat somehow, irrespective of how much you liked 1t in the begin ming. Now, the best and about the only way to do this Is to find n dress to wear under 1t that is of an exciting new color or of an excit- ing new design, or preferably both.
 It is practically going back to your baby days to think of smock- ing, but 1t happens to be used h very grown-up way in this dull green dress at the left. The shocking is of a darker green, The gathered bodice ends at q high waistline and Is belted with the same material and dark green buckle. It is smocked across the neckline and the shocking forms full and very fiattering ruffle around the neck.
 The sleeves end at the elbow and there is only one pocket. It Is also smocked and has q ruffle around the top. This dress ought to make you feel like a sophisticot- ed little Russian peasant ready to break into a Mazurka at any mos ment. And there are kick pleats on both sides.
 Pale blue ribbed crepe is used in the dress at right. It is very ju- vcnile, what with it's box pleats like a Norfolk jacket that so from shoulder to hem both back and front.
 At the waistline, two very .nar- row navy kid belts run under the pleats. The turned-down collar is, in this instance, very high. An enormous bow tie of taffcta is at the neck, and the ends are fringed.

 TonV said bitterly, DO you know why she left that night? Be- cause she realized she didn't love me. don't know why I'm giving you this break. Kendall-I guess it's because she loves you"
 Peter wrung Tony's hand. In q moment the world had changed.
 He drove to the apartment in- stead of the club. He flung the windows wide in Anns room. He would sleep here tonight. In this room that was so filled with mem- orics of Ann. Tomorrow he would begin the search for her-the search that had been so long de- laycd.
 Ann had dressed early the morning she left the apartment. She had called q cab and managed to be waiting for the drivor In the downstairs lobby when he arrived.

CHAPTER xxx11r

There was a crash as Dicle Ram dall hit the floor. A plate fell, like a small, weak echo. Someone screamed. Someone else gra bbed Petef's arm, but he shook the re- strainlng hand off and strode to- ward the door.

 outside, head clearing. Peter was getting into his car. He knew now what he wanted. He had not wanted that noisy, greedy, guzzllns crowd. He wanted a good look at Tony. And then he wanted to break him between his hands.
 II would not be hard to fin1 Tony. 4 telephone book did not reveal the address but he had bet ter luck when he called Tnforma- tion."
 The windows of Tony's duplex apartment were lighted. Tony was in. Perhaps Ann was there too Peter wanted to see Ann's face when he broke Tony between his hands. Tony, who had let her 20 once and then had taken her away from Peter.
 He pressed the bell and then, not waiting, turned the knob and flung the door wide.
 Tony was coming toward him. Just beyond was q girl with bold eyes. Not Ann. Not Ann!
 Peter stepped back, sanity re- turning. Tony came outside, clos ing tho door behind him.
 T say, KeEdall, what do you want?" Then, IS he saw Peter's devastated, haunted face. Tony went on. You thought Ann was here7"

skin or muscle is poorly nourish- cd" This does not imply that the patient has not had sufficient food. On the other hand 1t often does mean that the food hasonot been adequate for the essential require mcnts of the body, and the food of the wealthy is quite as likely to be inadequate as Is the food of the poor.
 Here Is reason why good doc- tors do not cencern themselves much about the noble efforts of. various benevolent organizations, clubs or associations to provide free meals for school children in the poorer districts, and all that Lady Bountiful business.
 Only within the past year or two we have learned to recognize de- teriofations or nutritional deficien- cies in the early stages when there is merely "functional' weakness; and by the therapeutic test we can prove that these partial, masked, vague deficiency disorders or health impairments are quite com mon In all classes of the popula- ton. By therapeutic test I mean the administration of an optimal ration of the vitamin or vitamins in which the patient Is deficient, or the mineral clements, or the vita mins and mineral combined. Now 1 have no intention of de- scribing symptoms for readers to try on. We'll leave the symptoms or complaints for patients to re- cite to their own doctor. But for example suppose q patient con- sN1 tVa. 70 At tx IA Ia reckon that will have most of you out on q limb-and the examina- ton reveals no evident cause for 1t, save a curious dietary obsession Lr habit which might deprive the pa- tient of one or more vitamins ih | the amounts necessary for eutro- | phy--hah, I've already defined that in an earlier piece, but once moI e 1t means normal or perfect nutri- tion. Well and good, the doctor has only to prescribe the necessary vit- amins and Instruct the patient to call again in q week. When the pa- tient calls again. if the diagn nosis was correct. 1t will be with smiles. That's'a therapeutic test, and 1t is the best modern preventive medi- cine. If your doctor doesn't prac- | tice that way, he's an old fogy, and you may tell him I said so.
 Food or nutrition chemists some- times get large head (hypertro- phy of the coco) and attempt to tell tfie public just what sort of diet or food will prevent or cure this and that complaint. That if sheer quackery, no matter how eminent the chemist may be in his own field. He is not qualified by training or experience to diagnose the maladies for which he pre-. scribes. He professes knowledge oi pathology and diagnosis, of whict he knows little or nothing. That'i quacking 1t or Noah Webster is [ liar.

"No, you can't take your engine to bed," said Herbert's mother. T want you to be quiet and go to sleep. You have your toys all day and that is enough. Now be a good boy and run along. Pn be up in a minute to tuck you in."
 Herbert left reluctantly. But halfway up the stairs another thought struck him.
 "If I don't play, can have 1t? I'll just. put 1t beside me and go right to sleep"
 "No, leave 1t here. You'll just roll on it and break it."
 "Can I have my soldiers? They won't break"
 March" said his mother.
 Herbert dragged himself up the stairs. This was something new. He had always been allowed tu take one of his old toys along. But 1t seems now that this new batch had changed everything.
 Not in on Parents Plan
 Where was his old Teddy bear9s He missed Teddy. And where was his little sailor boy who had lost his arms? They were comfortable bed fellows.
 Something had happened. He didn't know that his parents had decided that this was milestone and that Herbert was expected to put away baby things and baby habits.
 Of course he had been excited and pleased to get all the new shiny toys big boys toys. He was very proud. But there was q sort of heart ache for the old friends.
 His engine had taken on per- sonality. It moved. It seemed to have a life and knowledge of its own. It seemed more human to the little boy than the soldiers, for all they had faces and arms and legs.
 He wanted something, at any rate, to tide over the lonesome minutes that separated him from the day and the family. Some- thing his own. to share his lone- Illness and to whisper to silently, It's all right. old pal, we're here together"
 Herbert Takes a Chance
 Herbert was tucked in. He turned and twisted and felt de- serted. He started to suck his thumb, something he had not done for months and months. He called that he was too hot. Then hC called ngain--he was too cold.
 My goodness. Will that child never get settlcd?" exclaimed his mother after the third trip.
 After while the boy heard the front door close and the car move away. Annie was somewhere about, but he would chance it.
 He slipped down stairs and got his engine. Then he and the en- zine went contentedly to sleep.
 The next morning his mother found 1t on the bed.
 "Of all things" she cried. Then suddenly she remem bered her own old Dlnah Ann that she took to bed for years and years. No, they couldn't make Herbert into q great big boy all at once just because they wanted 1t so. He would have to do his own discarding. Let him have his engine to bed with him. She said nothing of her find.
 It was wise. A safe toy or two are the best beGfellows in the world.

SITTING PRETTY
 Good posture is the first requl- site not only of a beautiful figure but true beauty itsclf. The womnn who stands correctly-head high, chin in, chest upllfted and back bone in straight line-is sure to be a better picture of loveliness than one who slumps forward in graceless manner.
 If you aren't sure whether or not your posture is correct. mako this test. stand about one foot away from fiat wall---heels to- gether. Lean backward until your neck touches the wall. Press your spinal column against the fiat sur. face until you can feel an the vertebrae, except the last three or four, touch 1t.
 Notice there Is no curve fin your back when you stand this way. no lump between shoulder .adeS and that your stomach Is extremely flat. If you're cxtremely uncom fortable while holding thls correct position, the chances are your pos- ture is bad.
 Here's an exercise that will eliminate an exaggerated hollow in your back, teach you how to hold your stomach in and mako you look much more slender.
 Lie flat on the floor with arms at the sides and knees bent so that weight, of the legs is on the balls of the feet. Raise tho tip of the spine from the floor, pushing the center of 1t downward. See that your neck and all your backbone, except the very end of it, are per fectly straight. Hold the position ten seconds, relax and then repeat. Do this simple exercise ten times a day until you get into the habit Of standing with stomach in and hips carried forward.
