Different Types Of Kidney Disturbance

 Both microscopic and chemical tests of the fluid from each kidney have to Do made separately end the organs must be put to what ore called functional tests, to determine their ability to get rid Of fluid and other waste material from tho body.
 There are many different ways of causing increased amounts Of water to flow through the kidneys. Taking on extra supply of water will do this; As will the taking of concentrated solutions of sugar, cof- fee, or tea, or of large amounts of beer or mineral water.
 All these methods aot in differ ent ways, however, and what may be good for one type of kidney dIs- ease may Do entirely wrong for an- other. Sometimes . person will ac. cumulate . considerable amount of water in the tissues afted taking common salt but not after taking any other kind.
 Nowadays, there ere preparations of murcury which have the power of stimulating the body to rid itself of large quantities of fluid. Doctors may use these preparations, eiving them either by mouth or by injecs ton directly into the blood of the patient.
 But this must be done always under suitable control, because the wrong use of . remedy may be more dangerous than failure to use 1t at all.
 Diseases Of the kidney may Do in- sldious from the beginning. For that reason every person, but more espe- cially those past middle age, should arrange to have the work of ths kidney and It's exoretlons studied al least once, if not twice every year.

HEALTHY READERS PLEASE

Gently but firmly must deplore Che tenor of many of the letters our readers send to this department. Oh, they generally remember to mention health somewhere in the letter, and for that matter 1 don't mind the way they bootleg symptoms In naive disregard of the rules which are or ought to be printed frequently with thb column. But after all, there are ct least . hundred thousand doctors practlcing in ten thousand villages and towns in this country who gre not one whit less capable than l am in diagnosis and treatment.
 Another thing would deplore if it were any use to do SO Is human nature. People Q real doctor cures or saves feel and express only casual appreciation or thanks fl any; while those who believe c doctors teach. inaS have helped them keep well de- light to teii the world about t and do not forget 1t next week. Among my own poor achievements l am pfoudest bf two; by an all night struggle unAssisted I saved Gas I believe) the lives of Q young mother and chIld-for which was neither thanked nor paid; and by Gas I be- lieve) timely and heroic aid 1 re- suacltAted . drowned child-for which the parents, neighborS of mine, never so much as said how to me.
 Perhaps there is something un- pleasant and painful about memories Of illness, injury or disaster, and people naturally wish to eiIace all recollection of such things from their niind-ar dthe doctor, unfor- tupAtely, is closely associated with the sed occurrence, 50 his part in the affair must be forgotten too.
 xn order to teach people hygiene CT how to keep well you have to use All sorts of tricks to get their at- tention-r mean well people. It is only when people realize they are si0k that they begin to be interested in keeping well. And as Carlyle, the gloomy victim of peptic ulcer, ob- served with rare discernment for Q layman and a sick one at that: "gelf-contemplation Is infAllibly the symptom of disease" A symptom is . manifestation, an effect, not c cause of disease. Morbid introspec- tion often does harm if the victim is ignorant of anatomy, physiology and hygiene; 1t doesn't hurt one who knows himself.
 There is no definite borderline be- tween health and sickness, no abrupt change from the one state to the other, but generally a vague decline in '. v. and v. which the victim likes to attribute to work, worry, care, weather, climate, poor digestion, dempness, high tension, autointoxi- cation or whatever plausible factor may suit his fancy or his purpose. It is very dificult to get people In this broad borderland between per- 1gect health or hygiene, but they are suckers for symptoms and pathology.

Tricks
In Eye and
Lip Makeup
Proper Amount of
Shadow Cream and
Rouge to Use.
BY ELSIE PIERCE.

YSTERDAY'E article waS devoted
to the proper application of
foundation, cream rouge and powder
Today we 60 on the application Of
lip and eye makeup.
EyeShadow should be applied light
ly with the fngertip, and should be
blended so that most Of the color is
concentrated on the lids near the
lashes. The deepest color should ap-
pear in the center Of the i'd over the
pupils, and it should fade away COM
pletely toward the brow and toward
the outer corner Of the lid. This is
the usuai method There are excep-
tons, 70 course, when one wishes to
counteract certain feature character
isticS. For instance. IN the case Of
eyes set far apart, the deepest shadow
could be near the inner corners TO
give the eyes the appearance Of being
set closer together.
Mascara should be applied very
sparingly. 1t Is wen TO use Just a
trace Of oil before the mascars. Then
apply the mascara Emoothly and
evenly. Avoid a beaded or heavy ef-
feet. The ideal mascara should make
the lashes look longer. silkier. darker
and lore luxurious. Be sure to bring
the mascara from the roots down to
the very tips Of the lashes. One rea-
son why lashes that are made up ap-
pear longer is the fact that the tips
are often naturally light and there
fore seem TO cut the length Of the lash.
When the tip Is darkened the full
length Of the lash Is more obvious.
A great many women can omit the
use OF rouge and yet have heir make.
up quite complete and even distinctive.
But 100 per cent Of the women who
use makeup use lipstick or paste. Yet
more mistakes are made in this than
in any other branch OF makeup.
Then. too, women have q way Of
piling hpstick on top Of ltpetick I've
seen them rubbing and rubbing on
and on. One layer Is suficient. In
fact, grease cannot stay on top Of
grease. 1t separates and gives an
uneven effect. Learn to apply your
lip makeup with one steady stroke
from center to corner on the upper
lip. Then with steady stroke on the
lower lip. This done, blend carefully
with fngertips.

spreads, or any other concoction that
calls for the use OF these ingredients:
Canned sea foods in several new va

health;
Red pitted cherries in cans-just
sharp and tart enough to make them
perfect for pies or mullins:
Artichoke hearts packed in jars In
olive oil, ali ready for salads, or gar

Every day there seems to be some
thing new on the grocer's shelves TO
facilitate housekeeping for those who
have neither the time nor the inclina.
ton for elaborate preparation Of meals.
Even afternoon tea has been Simph-
fed by the little round cartons with
perforated tops, containing cinnamon
