INCORPORATING THE NASAL
 MEMBRANE.

MEMWktANEs
 Any one who suffers from hyperesthetlc or vasomotor rhinitis, hay fever or nasal allergy (peculiar sensitivity to one or another foreign substance, which excites profuse watering, running at nose, sneeSlng, stufflness) knows how futile or how feeble ordinary local remedies are. One subject to hyperesthetic rhinitis (nAchlne gun snee2O or nasal al. lergy knows, too, that the trouble ceases as abruptly and as inexpli- cably as it comes on. Credulous folks, or those who accept the catching cold" notion because it is on old tradition and some em- inent old timers in medicine seen to accept 1t, are not interested in this discussion, for they can conjure up draft, dampness or sudden change to account for anything that happens: and being 50 credul- ous they naturally have great faith in any remedy or treatment whose use coincides with the termination of the vasomotor upset or the al- lerRic reaction. Indeed, these mys. terious nasal disturbances, which probably constitute ten per cent or more of all nasal troubles, lead to great deal of wrong interpretatio of common ailments by laymen and physicians, and likewise to much or harmful treatment.
 am only c common door r-to-door doctor trying to live without honest work. I apply that imposing term "hyperesthetie rhinitiS" to i-don't. know-what condition without Q blush. I don't know Q thing about 1t. I don't believe anybody does. So there you are. No charge. Take it or leave it unwrapped until I come again.
 But I'm telling you about hay fever and nasal allergy and when we discuss these conditions my face Is not 50 red.
 This Is not the time to conjecture why you go oil bleary and suffer 50 much discomfort over c few grains of pollen In the air. while I inhale tho same pollen and keep Q clear dry eye and 0 clean nose throughout the pollinating season. Nor can VIC block traffic here to bieker about the reasons why you take rye bread with sang froid while sneeEe and snort and snuffie and run upon ingesting or oven smelling tho least cruIn of 1t -- though I don't dislike the taste of 1t.
 My purpose in bringing up these unpleasant thoughts is merely to mention that c newly developed method Of treatment is giving re. markablo relief in such eases, not only immediate relief of the annoy- Ing symptoms, but improvement over a considerable period, perhaps for tho whole season In hay fever eases. Tho new method Is called ioniEation or iontophoresis. A kind Of eleetroplating of the nasal mue- ous membranes, aS the teehnie iS described by pr. Lewis J. Silvers, distinguished exponent of electro.

Q.-Where can learn about the various types of psyllium seeds or seeds used for the same purpose? What are the dangers, If any, attached to the use ofthese seeds? Arc they habit.forming7
 A.-The name psyllium ap. plies to the seeds of several species of European plantain. The best are said to be dark reddish brown to black in color. Flaxsecd has proper ties similar to psyllium, but 1t has a slight though not un- pleasant odor and taste. It is possible other seeds have been used as psyllium and that they have similar muci- laginous properties. Psyllium acts as a mild laxative by virtue of it's indigestibility and mucilaginous character. It is not habit forming.

Billy caEne in, hiS eyes as big as eggs, and excitedly told hlS mother that there was c big bad man outside who was going to take him to jail.
 Nothing his mother could say convinced him that he was wrong, Teddy had told him, hadn't he? And Teddy know everything. Ted- dy was six and Billy was four, Teddy went to school and was . big shot with All the other little- boys. G,'
 Dear me, what shall I do?" she worried, "This is Q new one He's had Billy oil worked up ever since we moved here. First he scared him about the policeman, and then about spooks in the dark, and now there is c mythi. cal bad man about"
 She called Teddy over and said, "Now, Ted, want you to tell Billy the truth. That you were only trying to scare him. You know very well that there isn't anyone to hurt you or Billy either" She had wanted her boy never to go with anyone he dld not know but wisely thought it unnecessary to i'll his head with perpetual fear of human beings or anything else.
 Sure. was just foolln," grinned the incorrigible. Didn't you know was just foolin'2" he asked Billy. Confronted with the irate eye of Billy's mother, he was quick to ease himself out.
 Billy's courage returned per- ceptibly. "If there is any bad man. I'll knock him over and jump on him." he lisped bravely.
 But during the next week his conversation included the fear some stranger.
 "If any bad man comes and takes my train I'll shoot him." he boasted. "If any bad man spoils my snow man. I'll push him over" His mother was not de- celved by all this braggadocio, she knew Billy was whistling to keep up his courage.
 Two weeks passed and still Billy was harping on his pet fear. By this time. he had supplied some of his own inventions and was afraid to go to bed. Some thing would have to be done. Dad- dy was no help either. He said all kids went through that stage and had to hear things. She knew that, but why let . fine, normal little boy worry the way he was doing? So she called the police man one day as he passed. Billy drew back. She gave the police man look he quickly under stood.
 Hello, there, little man." said he. T like you. That's a swell cap. Do you want to try mine on?' In two minutes they were friends.

She was, of course, perturhed about the fact that she does so much to her complexion, yet seems to get practically no results.
 think everyone ought to appre- ciate the value of regular and meticulous night and morning beauty routines, of course, but, after months, if these seem to have no visible good effects on the skin, one ought to look behind the scenes.
 In other words make a careful check-up on health. Sometimes n visit t0 n doctor and careflil fol- lowing of his directions have been known to do more to improve the complexion than any number of beauty treatments.
 In addition, if many creams are used several times q day, their method of application has to be particularly gentle. Delicate mus cles and skin on face and throat were not made to be scrubbed like

Housing Hints Tips On How And What
 To Improve

Q.-0ur house ls only about . year old and already thero are cracks whore the ceiling and walls meet What should I do about it?
 A.--Evidently no metal lath was installed in these corners, These cracks are due to settlement and shrinkage of the frame. Have the cracks cut out and filled, and then erect . picture mold about one-half inch from tho ceiling; this will hide any cracks that may subsequently, appear.
 Q. Is it too lato to build some concrete cold frames?
 A. No. Concrete work can Do carried on throughout tho winter if proper precautions arc observed. If the ground Is frozen 1t must Do thawed: no pouring should be done when the temperature iS below freezing. Protect all poured con- crete with straw and tarpaulins or burlap until 1t hos Set. Call in 0 good maSo neontraetor and he can do the work for you.
 Q. ! notice that tho putty hold. Ing in the window pancS ls crack. Ing. VIII . coat of paint be enough? A, If 1t Is the putty, itself that Is cracking, new paint would prob ably not be sufficient to save it. You had better have new putty put In and then, of course, have that painted.
 q. should awnings be taken down in the winter?
 A. By all means, If you leave them up. they will rot from damp ness and be badly discolored by next summer. Besides the metal parts will be needlessly subjected to the weather, and the time when they start to rust will be haStened. Take them down and store them carefully In v dry place.
 O, We have an old house and when we light fire In the living room fireplace one of the bedrooms upstairs gets full of smoke. Can you suggest the cause and remedy!
 A. As yours is an old house there are probably no tile flue Innings and the motar of the brickwork is loose. The smoke probably comes from some open joints in the chim- ney. Remove a part of the floor by the chimney in the bedroom and have the patchwork examined. II inc condition is bad it would be well to have the chimney rebuilt with a tile flue lining; 1t is a big job but cheaper and infinitely prefer able to a fire.

 Because of It's value in prevention of scurvy, vitamin 0 is rated one of the most important substances to be found in foods.
 Anyone can ward of Scurvy, which heralds it's coming by e per- tod of pains like those of mild in- lection or rheumatic conditions, by taking regularly @ small amount Of vitamin 0.
 You must remember, in doing 50, that this is the most easily des- troyed of all vitamins. Fresh or raw fruits and vegetables are more certain to contain this vitamin than other products treated in var- ious ways.
 To secure the proper amount of vitamin c, take, each day, either an ounce of orange, grapefruit, UT lemon juice; pint of milk. or an average portion of canned tomatoes, raw cabbage, or onions.
 Just for 'safety's sake, 1t might be wiser to have several of these foods, or to take fresh berries. ap- ples, bananas, peaches, green peas, or pineapple, which are also rich in this yitamin.
 Incidentally many fruits, and vegetables can now be canned and preserved in such way that they re- tain t..eir vitamin c value. If your baby Is fed artificially on pasteurized milk mixtures. 1t should haxe extra orange juice to protect 1t from vitamin c deficiency. A half teaspoonful or orange juice is sufiicient at first: but the amount should l., increased stead- fly SO that by the time Baby IS , or months old. he is getting the juice of an entire orange. When orange juice isn't avaii- able for the tot. the juices of cab- bage, tugnips or carrots, of straw- berries and similar fruits. and par- ticularly of tomatoes. will do as Well.
 Exceptional care must be taken that prospective mothers. nursing ! babies. babies that are fed artificial- Iy. and people who are sick get the amount Of vitamin c which they re- uuire.
 There are. by the way. chemical 4 Aasts hy which you can learn whether your body contains enough vitauln 0. It has never been shown that on excess Of this vltamin wlll do one any harm.
