brought good health to many thou sands of women who were destined for lifetime of female weakness under the old pamper and coddle plan. pr. Mosher's little book Per sonal Hygiene for Women, pulp lished by Stanford University Press, Stanford University, California, is an ideal gift for any girl or woman who has not had good break in education. That means practically every girl who attends school.
 Mary the grand old girl who wears the hats and makes us all ike it., went out the other day to buy the King some wool under wear. So, even if the turgid days of red f1annels have gone forever, they're still wearing nice comfy long-legged woolies in the north temperate zone. It is not so many years since I wore 'em myself, and if had to live in the north tenn perate zone again I'd try to find more nice comfy long-legged wool or part woo underwear. If the Queen can buy 'em for her man '. but one would require cour- age even to ask for such things in q modern shop. l nearly went off my nut trying to find razor with which a man could shave here a year or two ago; and again the dealers thought of ealing the wagon ten years ago when I tried to buy oxfords in mid-winter up north, an dagain two years ago when l tried to buy some boots or high shoes in early summer. I suppose if one attempted to stroll on the bouevard with bare feet the cops would find some strange excuse for making a pinch.
 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Botulism
 Is there any danger of botulism from foods died or stored in the winter, such as dried string beans, dried sweet corn, carrots and other roots stored in sand, or cabbages stored in dirt mounds? (J. L.) Answer-If you make it rule always to discard any food that seems "quer". CT doesn't look, smell or taste right, you need have no fear of botulism.
 Pirates Lay on
 Several stores offer a deodorant sa ':'Dr. Brady's" deodorant. Would 1t be permissible for me to make up such a deodorant according to the formula you gave, and sell it as "Dr. Brady's Deodorant"?
 Answer-No. No one is permitted to use my name in that way. One reader tells me some pirates in her town even used a stolen photo- grauh or picture of me to make suckers believe I recommended their wares. You may take 1t as a bare-faced fraud whenever anybody appeals to you to buy his wares or his service with the implication that l recommend it.
 Distribution of Vitamins
 In your article on "Vitamins and Complexion" you said an ounce of dried yeast contains 25O to 500 un- its of Vitamin G and an ounce of beef liver contains 260 to $40 un- it's. Where can one get information of the amounts of vitamins in dif- ferent foods? (L. B. O.
 | Answer-Sherman' Chemistry of Food and Nutrition, Macmil- Ian, gives this information. Public Library has the book.
 Fishskin
 All my young life was unhappy because I was either pitied or laughed at but I have found how to remedy fishskin now. Take a daily warm or cold bath with soap and stiff brush. think peo- pie who suffer with fishskin disease will be delighted with the results (K. E. B.)
 Answer-Thank you. Following any bath 1t is we'll for one with dry. scaly, irritable or itching slxlr to apply some oil--a few drops only, such as olive oil (sweet oil)- to replace the natural sebum (slkir oil) removed by bathing or lacking because of the skin disease.
