1 tion may have weak, poorly func- tioning alimentary muscle just as he may have an impairment or de- generation of the heart muscle. It all depends on nutrition. And we know things about nutrition today which we scarcely dreamed of ten years ago.
 If the diet happens to be poor in certain vitamins, particularly B and G, as many an otherwise excel- lent diet is, there is sure to be more or less constipation due to lowered tone of the gastro-intes- tinal muscle, the alimentary mus cle. If the vitamin shortage exists over a considerable period, as it does where the diet is too refined or where the individual follows whoms or prejudices in selecting food, there is tendency toward chronic dilation of the alimentary tube at various portions of its length. This is attended with re- tarded peristalsis, slower rate of propulsion of the digesting residue and all the familiar symptoms of Indigestion" which we need not mention here. These are scientific data learned from animal experi- mentation. The facts are amply confirmed by the reports of numer- ous patients (not my patients) who have experienced marked im- provements in their alimentary ration of vitamins as supplement to the ordinary diet for variety of common ailments.
 If the partial but constant vita- min deficiencies of the ordinary re- fined diet were corrected, either by return to natural or undenatur- ized foods or by experimenting the ordinary refined food with a reg ular ration of vitamins, at least two of the familiar manifestations of faulty nutrition would be as rare in man as they are in animals namely obesity and constipation. What, A Good Doctor Book? Kindly recommend good med ical book, modern, which will give me information on first aid and medical care in sudden illnesses and common ailments. (J. R. R.)
 Answer-Like the great Ameri- can novel, that book has not yet appeared. There are excellent books dealing with particular phases, but I have seen none that would meet your requirement. Butter and Oleo
 Please compare butter and oleo- margarine in nutritive value. (Mrs, M. H. CD
 Answer-In calories, they are practically the same. But butter contains vitamins which are likely to be lacking in oleomargarine. l When butter is high and oleo is reasonably priced, would as soon nave oleo. I can't distinguish good oleo, suitably colored, from butter. Hay Fever Club
 From Duluth, haven for hay fever victims, comes word that the Hay Fever Club of America has members from fifteen states. Tn Duluth they can sit on the shores of Lake Superior and be sure of a cool lake breeze of pollen frea air from the largest body of pure Iresn water on the continent. No ragweed around Duluth. That's something not to be sneezed at otner resorts where sufferers find relief are Mobile Bay in Alabama. santa Barbara in California, Silver Plume in Colorado, New London m Connecticut, Bald Mountain in Georgia, the northern part of Michigan, Albuquerque in New I Mexico, the Adirondacks in New

PARIS STYLES
By MARY FENTREss

Paris (UP)-Although the big dressmakers on the rue de Ia Paix and the rue Royele are botherinr about winter furs, woolens and vel vets, there still remains a month and a half of hot weather and a. new black crepe, no matter how cnlc' IS not half so comfortable as a cool summer dress. August is the month for cool. washable piques, and this versatile material goes into gowns for every sort or occasion. For morning wear, there is the red and white pepper mint striped dress which made such a hit at Vera Borea. It is a two-piece dress with a high-necked corsage which ties with a stock scarf.
 The short sleeves are tucked at the shoulder line to give them full- nessnessh The stripes in the ma- terial run vertically in the cor- sage, but run diagonally in the skirt meeting in an inverted V in the center back and front. It is worn with a white belt and white hat.
 From Lucien Lelong comes ari evening gown in white piuue printed in huge red peoples and bright blue cornfiowers. The gown has a stand-out bertha edging the square neck, is worn with a red cellophane belt and has long full skirt. The wide shoulder straps cross at the center of the bare back.
 !
 For afternoon there is a wal lied pique in bois de rose made with plague in the center front and back and e v shaped yoke The edgsH of the plaques and yoke extend about an Inch beyond the stitching in a sort of tuck. A grey- biuo leather bolt and a Erey-pius silk stock complete the outfit.

THE TONE OF THE ALIMEN.
 FAIRY MUSCLE

THE TONE OF THE ALIMEN-
 TARY MUSCLE
 When the third edition of Web- ster's New International is pub lished it will, I am confident, con- tain correct definitions for somer- sault, belly and cri. I mention this not as a warning or threat but sim ply as a word to the wise-three words, to be precise. On request of the Editorial Board shall be happy to elucidate and demon strate all three terms so as to clear up the confusion that mars the present edition.
 Today's lesson, children, has nothing to do with the belly prop CT, but I know what most of you think and here is the place to cor rect your ideas of anatomy and physiology. The belly proper is the front wall of the abdomen, which is 8 cavity containing the digestive organs. The belly is chief ly muscle, at least mine is; with many people it is half fat. The muscle is voluntary muscle, and therefore 1t is more or less respon- sive t0 the will, though 1t also reacts to emotions and sympathetic impulses automatically or auto- nomically, as do the muscles of ex- pression and the other muscles of breathing.
 The alimentary muscle is wholly involuntary muscle, distributed as a layer or coat in the wall of the entire alimentary tract or canal, and 1t is controlled by the sympa- thetic or autonomic nervous sys- tenn and cannot be influenced by the will or consciousness. The strength vigor or resiliency of the skeletal muscles has practically nothing to do with the tone and functioning of the alimentary mus cle.

An axiom for nice grooming which
every well-dressed woman knows by
heart is that no frock can fit any
better than the slip that's worn be-
meath it. That's why it is so impor-
tant to have an abundance Of trim
slips in your wardrobe. AS you see
by the illustration, this model wraps
around at the back, and can be per-
fectly adjusted to the figure by the
belt which fastens in front. Result:
no bunchiness or wrinkles to spoil
the lines Of your smartest frocks
And the fact that the back skirt is
double makes the slip shadow-proof
and long-wearing as well! Washable
silk-crepe or sateen or one of the
tubbable rayon materials would make
up well in this design.

Birds Display Enmity
at Sight of Airplane

Birds are more frightened of air.
planes than are big game, an Eng
fish aviator reports. When flying
over Britain l have noticed that the
pheasant, partridge, and even the
domesticated hen, are thoroughly
scared when an airplane drones in
their direction. They appear to think
that plane is giant hawk about
to swoop down on them. 1t is a curl
Gus assertion among people who
lived on the east coast of Britain
during the World war that they re-
ceived their first warning of impend-
Ing Zeppelin raids from pheasants.
These pheasants invariably awoke,
began calling to each other and scut-
tered away in fright long before the
noise Of aero engines became appar-
ent to human ears.
There are several cases of con-
doris attacking airplanes crossing the
Andes. Once, it is told, large condor
espied an all-metal airplane winging
through the blue. Immediately the
huge bird swooped down and struck
the intruder with stunning force on
the wing. All that was left to tell of
the encounter was large rent In
the wing, some feathers, and con-
doris leg complete with its foot.

Food Supplies Stored
for Castaway Sailors

To be shipwrecked on some lonely
island or rock, where there is no
food, Is fate which has often be-
fallen sailors.
1t is those spots of land which are
at great distance from the regular
ocean highways where the outlook
for castaways is so desperate. Yet
1t is just these very islands on to
which a disabled ship may drift.
Typical of these islands are those
called Amsterdam, st. Paul and the
Crozets, lying to the south of the In
dian ocean. In the old days sure star
walton was the fate of any man
stranded on st. Paul.
Today he will find on the rocky
beach notice board bearing the in
scription in French, "Food and cloth
ing for castaways." Following the di-
rection indicated by wooden hand,
he comes across rough stone hut,
in which there is store of preserved
beef, biscuits, wooden shirts, blank
cts and matches. All these goods are
contained in strong barrels, which
can be easily opened.
AS long ago as 1887 French YES
sci left beer, biscuits and sardines on
one of the Crozet islands.
Nearly twenty years after, the food
was eaten by the shipwrecked crew
of a Norwegian whaling expedition.

Doctors Know!
y. /. and they use
liquid laxatives

You'd use a liquid, too, if you knew
how much better it makes you feel.
A liquid laxative can always be
taken in the right amount. You can
gradually reduce the dose. Reduced
DOSAGE is the secret of real and safe
relief from constipation.
Just ask your own doctor about
this. Ask your druggist how popular
liquid laxatives have become. The
right liquid laxative gives the right
kind of help-and the right amount
of help. When the dose is repeated,
instead of more each time, you take
less. Until the bowels are moving
regularly and thoroughly without aid.
People who have experienced this
comfort, never return to any form OF
help that can't be regulated The
liquid laxative generally used is DR..
Caldwells Syrup Pepsin. 1t contains
SIENNA and cascara, and these are
natural laxatives that form no habit.
1t relieves condition of biliousness

ARMY TO ASK FUND
TO BUILD PLANES
Woodring Announces Sum
In Excess of $4,000, 900
Will Be Sought.
Nv the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Acting Secretary of War Woodring
intimated today the War Department
would seek an appropriation exceed
ing S4O,0O0O00 for starting in the
next fiscal year flve-year plan to
double the size Of the Armys air
armada.
The amount is more than twice
that which Congress voted for the
present year.
THE exact figure to be submitted
20 the Budget Bureau has not yet been
determined" Woodring said. But
already we are asking manufacturers
to submit bids on the basis of 800
planes to be purchased in the 1887
fiscal year"
He added that Gen. Douglas Mac
Arthur's farewell report as chief of
staff. recommending acquisition Of 800
planess annually for years. in gen.
eral represents the view OF the entire
War Department" The objective is
q sky force of $500 serviceable planes.
Army aeronautics officials said the
Air Corps now has 1872 ships in
frst-class condition. of which around
400 are combat planes available to
defend the Continental United States.
A strong move developed in the
House Military Affairs Committee in
the closing days of the last Congress
to appropriate an extra $40,O0O,0O0
for the Air Corps. 1t was estimated
that sum would provide 300 new
planes.
Woodring said, though, he did not
believe s4O,OOO,OOo would be enough
now to finance that many craft.
Congress handed the Air Corps
slso0O,000 to spend on airplanes in
the fiscal year ending next June 80,
but $4,000, 900 was earmarked to pay
for ships contracted for the 1885
year.
