Utmost Poverty

lived in a dank, Bronx flat

they watched it die from NAL

The story of a dead child and

Ottilie's father sent a letter tell

To illustrate that last point,
vegetables started on the hot
plate and brought to a boil to
heat them thoroughly are then
placed in the SLOW oven, where
the nourishing juices are con-

Etiquette
Informal Note
Of Thanks
ByMRs. CORNELIUS BEECKMAN

ByMRS.C CORNELIUS BEECKMAN
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
eve sent announcement cards
when our baby was born, and
she has received many beauti-
full gifts. / should like you to
suggest a little note Of thanks.
/ had thought of an informal
note similar to this:
Mary Jane (the BABY has
asked me to write this little
note to thank you for the beau
tiful dress Do you think that
too informal?
'PleaSe suggest an apprOpri-
ate ending, or should I have an
other paragraph in the letter?
would correspondence cards
be the proper thing or should I
use paper similar to this? b..
I think your idea of writing
the thank-you note in the baby's
name is a charming one, and I
am sure that your friends will
be delighted with this.
do think that you should
say something more than the
one sentence in your note Of
thanks. Maybe something like
this:
''Mary Jane has asked me to
tell you how happy she was at
your sweet thought of her, and
how appreciative she is of your
beautiful gift to her. The dress,
she says land I enthusiastically
agree), is a beauty, and she is
so proud of its lOveliness when
she wears it, and SO proud that
you chose it for her. Dearest
love from her and from me, and
we both hope that very soon
you will come to see u.s."
Letter-paper such as you used
in your letter to me would be
better than corr espondence
cards.

you want it, and doesn't waste
any of it, apparently.
One and one-half tons of
coal a year will keep this stove
in working order. You merely
have to put in one Scuttle
day, and there's a handy scut-
tie that comes with it, which
doesn't allow dust to fly, and
which is light, easy to handle,
and clean. There's practically
no waste or ashes.

Chance or the
marvellous new treatment that
can cure nearly 100 per cent Of
sufferers If the disease is caught
in time"
That is the statement he made,
which I think is unfortunate,
because it might give to those
who are simply taking the rest
cure the idea that they are be-
ing deprived of a form Of treat
ment that is certainly more
beneficial.
The treatment to which he
refers is called artificial pneu-
mothorax." "Pneumo" means
air and "thorax" means chest,
and this treatment consists in
pumping air into the chest,
outside Of the lung, so that
the lung is collapsed.
Selected Cases
It is also put at rest because
the air separates it from its
suction adherence to the chest
wall, and it does not expand
and contract with respiration
as much as under normal cir
cumStanceS.
This treatment is excellent,
don't misunderstand me, and
has proved live1saving to many
cases. But it should be used
in selected cases. Many, per-
haps most cases, do very well
without it.
It was originally used only
Tor advanced cases, and though
it is being used more and more
for earlier and earlier cases,
1t is still true that most cases
are discovered either early
enough or they are of a type
that rest, fresh air, and good
nutrition will effect a cure,
without the aid of pneumo.
thorax.
So if you should be a patient
or should be the relative of q
patient who has been ordered
to take rest alone, don't be
discouraged at reading DR.. de
Krulf'S article. Your doctor is
treating you wisely, and most
patients in your exact circum-
stances would be treated the
same way, no matter where
they were.
DR.. de Kruif says again some
thing I wish he had left un.

"JuSt as stethoscOpes are use.
less in detecting early tubercu.
loSiS-SO in the same way the
famous cure by good food, fresh
air and simple rest in bed is q
terribly feeble defense against
consumption"
Set beside this the words Of a
conservative and experienced
physician who has spent his
lifetime handling tuberculosis
cases (Dr. de Kruif does not
practice, I believe), DR.. Fred G.
Holmes, director Of the National
tuberculosis Association, chief
OF staff Of the Good Samaritan
hospital, Phoenix, Ariz.:
Through the simple applica-
tiOn Of rest alone, so per cent
Of all cases of tuberculosis can
make a recovery"
And it won't do to say that is
old-fashioned advice. It is, on
the contrary, strictly up-to-date,
found in a book with the date
of 1885.
At the Source
The rest of DR.. de Kruif's
article holds up a great hope
that may turn into a reality
Of using pneumothorax in all
cases Of tuberculosis with cavi.
ties in the lung so as to limit
the spread Of the disease. The
air pumped into the chest col.
lapseS the lung, as we said, and
brings the walls of these cavi-
ties together so they will heal.
1t Squeezes the lung dry as you
would squeeze water out of a
sponge.
And since it is these "open"

germs around over the world,

Beauty
Getting Rid of
LARGE Pores
BY NINE. QUI VIVE

Skin Of coarse texture is Oft
times an inheritance, for which
no girl is thankful. Again, it
may be the result Of complexion
neglect in childhood and young
ladyhood.
Some skin specialists say that
1t is mainly caused by an exces-
sive amount Of oil exuded by
the sebaceous glands, this gland
activity expanding the walls OF
the skin ducts. The afflicted
person doesn't care much how
come. What she wants to know
is how go.
Having heard that hot water
relaxes the tissues, she avoids
it. Yet hot congresses, followed
Immediately with cold ones, will
prove effective in stimulating
blood stream, refining the tex
ture. An ice rub twice day is
an essential part of the treat
ment. After the rub apply an
aStringent.
The use Of cosmetics other
than astringents should be re-
stricted. The coarse skin Is
nearly always an oily one, and
there is seldom need of creamy
applications, the purpose OF
which is to subdue harshness
and to overcome dryness. Creams
cause a free flow of perspira-
tion, and that's no help. Pores
are already overburdened with
work; need no excitement.
A light powder is more quiet
ing than a heavy, oily one. And
even that should not be rubbed
vigorously into the surface OF
the flesh.
Meal packs are favored by
many beauty specialists as being
helpful in the promotion of a
fine skin texture. The amateur
cosmetic mixer has no difficulty
compounding beauty aids of
this kind. If she has reached
a state of despair over a COM
plexion that is as covered with
dents as an old pin-cuShion, she
cannot do better than to try out
a face pack made by combining
one beaten egg white, the juice
of one lemon and sufficient
almond meal to produce a mix
ture the consistency of whipped
cream.
Before applying, the skin sur
face should be thoroughly clean
and glowing. Use warm water
and soap freely, rinse with warm
water and dry, then spread on
the mask with the finger tips,
starting at the lower part OF
the neck, working upward.
Egg white is a marvellous as
tringent; the meal softens and
beautifies the complexion: the
lemon juice cuts away oil, brings
a clear, healthy color. After the
pack has dried remove it with
clear tepid water.
Have the face pack every
night for the first week, every
other night for week, then
twice a week.
Sounds like a long beauty war,
doesn't It? But don't forget that
you'll have to make over the
skin structure. Pores must be
emptied of deposits, their walls
must contract. We can't hold
out hope for a speedy change
for the better. Takes time.
Enlarged pores are years
a-coming; they have no desire
to be a-going. Be patient. And
persistent. And have faith.
Faith helps. don't know just
why or how, but it does.
