QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
 Social Pathology

If child inhcrits any social disease from its parents how will it manifest itself? If every scratch or cut testers and heals slowly, what is wrong with the child? (W. x. R.)
 Answer-There is no character istic sign of congcnital syphilis. Only physician can make even a tentative diagnosis in any case. It is silly to imagine that the fcster- ing or slow healing of scatches or cuts has any significance-eXcept that the first aid care of such minor wounds Is not aseptic, or the natural healing process is too much interfered with, by the ap- plication of harmful "healing" remedies.

 Answer--In other words he doesn't know what the trouble may be but Is willing to look into tho case. Of course any one who has had any kind of acute inflam- nation, injury or operation, has adhesions. l thank my lucky stars for mine.

What causes contrariness ?
 asks n mother.
 Usually resentment. This /
 sentiment may be either reasonaL'e or unreasonable. A child can be- come contrary from spelling or from being constantly baked in his l desires.
 | Where there are two children | in d family and one is dominat- | ing, the other may very easily be- come contrary. Particularly if his will Is almost but not quite equal to his brothers. Or if parents insist on exercising their authori- ty beyond the limit Of human en- durance, even though the Thu man be q child, their own child.
 As rule the pliant child is not obstinate. It is the boy or elrl with will of his own who begins to act mulish when frus- tratcd. Given reasonable lceway to work out his own ideas, he will be less likely to become Il prob- lem.
 It Is quite common to hear a mother say, fJohn is obstinate but very affectionate. If people only understood him he would never give them any trouble.
 Emotion Sways Behavior
 The reason is clear. From early ! childhood emotion has a great deal to do with behavior. Those whom q child likes have unlim- tied influence over him. and he will try to please as far as it IS compatible with his nature to Go so Not always those who humor him either, because he will ac- cept discipline of the most rigid kInd if the disciplinarian has cap tured his fancy.
 It follows then that the chile with the reputation for obstinacy Iravitates toward those who make an attempt to understand him. And to them he shows affection.
 There are n number of children. of course, who would puzzle the saints themselves to handle, born with n certain gift for hell-rais- ing and determined to set their faces against all authority from the first.
 These children have little an. peal from the affection" stand point. There seems to be no way to get around them. And yet 1t anyone understand their mental makeup thoroughly and could figure out the reason for their be- havior, probably there Is not child living (mentally normal, that is) who could not be re- claimed and made into q reason able and likable being.
 Children Worry, Too One cause Of ob&tinacy in the general run of children is worry. If a child does not feel secure :n his home life, if he has been shifted to new and strange sur roundinGs, if there is trouble and quarreling at the house---such a child will react by putting on a show of contrariness and poor be- havior very often. Put into a new room at school where he either cannot get along or takes 1t into his head the teacher does not like him, he may begin to show off, not alone to her but at home, too. Sometimes playmate will be the direct cause. If he is too forceful, just one degree more strong -willed than his chum, the fconstant irritation of giving in will breed contrariness.
 It may sound like paradox, bu: one of the best ways to cure balk- ing, besides removing probable cause. Is to let the stubborn one have his way at times. Just enough to let him feel satisfied ne Is not being sauelched at every

Getting your body in healthy normal condition is the first step toward complexion beauty, of course. You cant have clear skin If you are always tired from lack of sleep or if your digestion is faulty. DO all you possible can to get in excellent physical shape and then supplement, your health routines with the right home beauty treatments.
 If you apply some kind of mask once q week from now until East CT, the chances are your skin will be as fresh and attractive as your new spring bonnet. Choose q good one, make by reliable firm, or, if you like, use the plain, old fashioned egg mask.
 If your skin has a tendency to- ward dryncss, always smooth on tissue, cream after you have re- moved q mask. Pat if in for few seconds, remove and you're ready for foundation lotion and makeup.
 In additionfi use your skin tonic or mild astringent twice q day.
 You'll find that your lotion is much more effective and certainly more smoothing to the nerves if

SYNOPSIS

 INTELLIGENT GRAVES, secre- tary to GEORGE DRIMGOLD, finds her employer in hls office dead. In panic slIe rusIhes away and registers at q hotel under an assumed name.
 JARVIS HAPP, distinguished looking stranger, recognizes Mil. hcent and offers to help her. He sends her to q beauty parlor where she Is transformed into q brunei. Happ takes her home, introducing her as his secretary. His son, NORMAN HAPP, warns MllIicent against his stepbrother ROBERT CAISE, and tells her Q mysterious woman in black ere mine has some power over his stepmOther.
 AfilIicent falls asleep. A noise wakens her and she finds q note under her door reading, ''T'he woman in black crmine is hcre." Millicent dresses, secs the wO- man fin black drive away fin a sedan. Milliccnt follows in Ro- bert Caisc's coupe, but runs out Of gas. She walks home, sees a AIight in the chauffcur's quar- ters, enters and screams.
 CHAPTER XIV
 After that single involuntary scream had been wrung from her lips, Millicent realized the necessity for silence.
 She could hear the pounding of her own heart, the steady drip ping of the rain from the caves, the rustic of the leaves Of shade tree which grew against the side of the building.
 She stood there, listening, wait tracted attention.
 Apparently 1t had not. There was no sound save the noises of the night.
 Millicent stepped into the room and closed the door.
 She steeled herself to approach the figure which sprawled, face downward, in the center of the room. It was the figure of a man, clad in an overcoat with the col lar turned up. A felt hat had fallen from his head and lay two for three feet to one side.
 Millicent could not see the mans features, but she could see the dark, yelling pool which seeped from beneath the figure andw stained the rather thin, sum- bleached carpet of the room
 By exercising every bit of will power at her command, she leaned forward and placed her fingers on the mans wrist, trying to find if there was any pulse.
 It need only the touch of the flesh to convince her that the man was dead.
 She strengthened, knowing that she must get look at his face. Somehow, she had convinced her. self that 1t was, perhaps, Norman Happ who had followed the mys- terfous woman in black ermine. If this dead man should prove to be Norman Happ
 She moved slowly around to the side, so that she could stare down into the gray, distorted features. The dead man was Harry Feld- ing. the chauffeur, and his face was not a pleasant thing to see. Millicent felt nausea gripping her. She pulled handkerchief from the pocket of her fur coat, pressed it against her lips, stood for moment swaying on the bor- dcrland between consciousness ana fainting. Then she gradually

lregained control of herself. She wanted most desperately to get Q drink of water, or perhaps there might be a bottle of brandy some- where in the room.
 
 She looked about her and saw q door which led to a bathroom | She entered the bathroom and saw that it contained wash stand, over which was drinking glass. There ,was cupboard above the was hstand. She opened it, and her eyes encountered q flask of whisky.
 Her hand shook as she splashed whisky into the tumbler and choked down stiff drink, but as the fiery liquid started coursing through her veins, it gave her new strength, new feeling of confidence.
 She wiped her lips with her handkerchief and returned 1t to the pocket of her fur coat. As she pushed the bit of linen and lace into the pocket. her fingers encountered a hard. bulky object which seemed strange to her. She frowned, explored the object with the tips of her fingers and then suddenly remembered what 1t was At the same moment a quick flash of inspiration swept over her and she pulled the object from her pocket. It was the key con- tainer that had been in the car she had borrowed.
 There were seven or eight keys on that key container. Surely one of them must be a key to the house. With it she would be able to let herself into the house and go to her room without anyone knowing that she had been out.
 She left the bathroom. stood in the square room once more with it's windows on three sides, a room in which a man had recently met his death.
 Suddenly, her brain clarified slightly by the stimulant she had taken, Millicent realized she would have to know something of what had happened. Had the man been stabbed or shot? Had he been killed by someone who lay in wait for him or had someone opened the door and struck him down?
 Fearfully. she once more ap- preached the corpse and stood over it.
 She could see no hole in the back of the overcoat, nor was there any stain on the back of the coat to indicate that bullet had gone through the mans body.
 She leaned over to one side looking to see if she could find any sign of knife. and could find none. She noticed that the man had fallen forward away from the door. The wound was in the front his assistant must. therefore, have been in the room at the time he had opened the door.
 She went to the door, listened for moment. then slipped out into the wet night.
 As Milicent tip-toed down the stairs from the chauffeurs bed- room she heard the sound of a motor car, and a moment later lights flashed along the driveway. showing that car had turned in toward the garage.
 For a second or two she stood there, wondering if she dared risk discovery. Then she ran down the stairs and concealed herself be- hind an ornamental hedge.
 She had no sooner dropped from

Lawrence found q large group of illegitimate children reared in uniform environment in an institution still resembled their true fathers about as closely as do children reared in their fathers own home.

Thus, while the white, purple or multi-colored orchid will be as pop ular as ever for the Easter morn- ng parade, it will bow in, minus greenery and much of the elabo- rate ribbon trimming that used to weigh it down.
 Gardenias, used both in the new way as bracelets to enhance a pretty wrist, or old style, as shoul- der knot, will rely entirely upon their own green and creamy white for effect.
 
 The up-to-date Miss Hayes is doing all kinds of trim arrange ments for suit buttonholes or Ascot loops, with several small carnations of two or three contrasting colors crushed together to look like one huge fantastic flower. Cornflowers with red rose in the center, also make these novel tailored bou- tonnieres, as do handfuls of mixed flowers--say, one tiny forget-mc- not, delphinium, a rosebud and a bit of heather

The Easter offering will be worn in all sorts of odd places--a fresh carnation in the hat, for instance, to match one in the button hole a single flower at the point of a w. neck or row of gardenias to de- fine square neck. We shall see old-fashioned posies thrust into the belt as in our grandmother's time and perhaps single sophisticated blossom struck jauntily on the hip.
 
 The shoulder, being more usual. is temporarily rather out of favor, though for the Easter dance, the right shoulder Is still the one proper repository for corsage. That is, unless you prefer to carry your bouquet. For this purpose there are tiny old-fashioned nose- gays, outlined with leaves instead of paper frills. And many lovely

creatures match their gardenia bracelets with gardenias in the hair.
 For the Easter dinner table, Miss Hayes advocates masses of flowers of all kindls and colors, the more carelessly mixed, the better. Or perhaps spray of apple, peach or cherry blossoms with spring flowers or roses. One of the newest wrinkles for table decoration, too, is clear crystal bowl with the flowers all inside. Begin at the bottom of the bowl with flower heads and build the bouquet in layers, gradually in- creasing lengths of stems until you reach the top of the bowl, Don't let a single flower peep above the bowls rim.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1935-04-02

According to Miss Hayes, some of the things to remember In orr dering flowers for mother, wife, sister or sweetheart this Easter are: that asparagus and maidenhair fern are considered very old fash toned, indeed, for corsages: that orchids fit any age, but that baby spray orchids are less expensive than other varieties, may be worn for two, or even three, days and especially suit the younger woman; that the vogue of the suit Is influ. encing the floral trend; that vioIets have staged a comeback and should be arranged so that the ten- der green stems show and are not encased in tinfoil; that sweetheart roses are adorable for the very young girl and that pink is as good in flowers as in clothes this year.

NEW MATTRESSES FOR
 OLD SCIAVICS

The other day (June 19, 1914 to be precise) we recommended these simple hypnotics:
 "A good bedspring and
 mattress which does not sag
 under the weight of the body;
 light coverings; fresh air nov
 ing in free draft across the
 bed from open window to open
 window or better on q sleep
 ing porch and absence of
 bright light encourage sleep" Shortly afterward (April 19,i 1934) we harped on the same string:
 ". convinced that most in-
 somnia, unrefreshing sleep,
 disturbing dreams and night
 mares, not to mention various
 purely physical ailments, are
 due solely to unsuitable sleep
 ing equipment, especially
 bedspring or mattress that
 self-respecting body should be
 ashamed to be found half
 dead on. And the covers that
 go with such niggardly sleep
 ing arrangements are as com
 
 is by no means poverty that
 accounts for the misery ."
 A man of middle age and first rate health became gradually dis abled by what started as "crick' in the back and eventually devel- oped into sciatica. He tried sei- eral brands of headers, followed one funny diet after another, had all the changes in physic therapy and grew steadily n little no bet ter. Then one day his wife, a rest less woman who could not endure to sit at home listening to the man complaining, took him away for u trip. They spent part of week ir Il hotel where modern sleeping equipment had been installed. The man experienced extraordinary re- lief while they were there. Then they came home, junked the old springs and mattresses which had been in use for more than twenty years, installed modern beds, and that was the end of the sciatica.
 Not that good bed Is a panacea for sciatica. In actual neuritis of course there must be some specific cause and this must be corrected in order to bring relief. But many more cases of obstinate chronic lame back, lumbago, sciatica than one would suppose are in reality strain of the sacroiliac synchron- drosis and this may be due solely to faulty bed.
 It seems that n new car Is nec- essary every two or three years to keep tsp with the Joneses, while but the doctor sees the outworn sleeping equipment, and besides one spends only a third of ones time in bed, so why squan- der penny or two for comfort there
