Three men and a woman, adrift in
a rowboat in the Chesapeake Bay for
two hours, were rescued shortly af-
ter sunset Friday of last week by
the Claiborne-Annapolis ferry John
M. Dennis, off Bloody Point.
They had remained aboard the
barge Severn Thursday night after it
had been cut loose from a tug. The
tug had started to Baltimore for aid,
but had run aground off Sandy Point,
and the quartet on the barge then
had attempted to row ashore.

 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
 Swallowing Gum
 What would be the results of a small child swallowing chewing gum? (P. L. W.)
 Answer-The gum would pass through the alimentary tract with in 48 hours without doing harm.
 Acid Stomach f.
 Lately I have suffered @ great deal with excessive acidity and heartburn or waterbrash (bubbling up of irritating liquid in the throat). I drink liquors-always have. (R. E. F0
 Answer-Must stop drinking, of course. Perhaps diet requires some modification. Suggestions in book let Guide to Right Eating" for copy of which send ten cent coin and stamped addressed envelope. To neutralize excessive acidity for some hours, take ten grains of cal- cium carbonate, perhaps three or four times a day, rather than soda or similar alkalis.
 Wormy Obsessi0n
 Grandmother believes when child seems restless, irritable or feverish, with flushed cheeks yet pale white lines around the mouth, worm medicine should be given. (Mrs. c. W.
 Answer-At least two-thirds of children who harbor worms never present such symptoms, and most children who present such symp- toms have no worms. Instead of experimenting on the child with worm" remedies, some of which are worthless against worms, others dangerous, why not give the child the benefit of medical advice?

Diagnosis of Piles

Diagnosis of Piles
 A patient in hospital for treat ment of an injury complained of 'hemorrhoids" Two surgeons on the hospital staff examined him and assured him he had no hemorrhoids Nevertheless he believed he had something of the sort wrong, and as soon as he left the hospital he visited @ doctor who, on examina- tion, found three large hemorrhoids This doctor made a real examina- ton, by means of Speculum and suitable light. The surgeons had made a blind examination, without speculum and without inspection, and so they muffed the diagnosis.
 It is fair to say that nearly half of all sufferers from piles" actu- ally have no piles; or rather that their trouble is due to something else.
 A personal communication from a medical friend says of clinic where ambulant treatment is given:
 During the several times I have dropped in there I have seen from twenty-five to fifty patients a day being treated for some proctologi- cal condition. There are no beds and the things they do without confin- ing patients are truly remarkable. One of the most useful things they do is to diagnose and refer car- cinoma to surgeons. Many of these would go undiagnosed and untreat- ed were it not for this clinic" Another physician, in his book on Essentials of Injection Treatment (NdcNamara, The Medical Press, Rochester, N. Y) says:
 Some day patients suffering with rectal disease will not hesitate to consult their physicians as soon as they realize that there is something wrong. That day will have arrived when the public has become in- formed as to the ease and lasting comfort through the injection (am- bulan) method of treating hemor- rhoids."
 In one large clinic in connection with one of the greatest hospitals in the country, where formerly only operation was employed for hem orrhoids, Assure and other common rectal trouble, the injection treat ment alone is now employed, and hundreds of patients are cured without confinement, serious dis comfort or interference with their regular work.
 If experienced surgeons, like the two above referred to, can be so deceived by the sense of touch as to fail to recognize the presence of two large hemorrhoids, how much more likely layman is to be mistaken about the diagnosis of any rectal trouble.
 This being a health column shall not mention the symptoms ot heimorrhoids. Suffice to say that none of the symptoms most fre- quently presented warrants diag- nosis of the condition, and certainly no physician is justified in prescrib- ing other than palliative remedies in such case without proper wis.

Most interesting on cosmetic counters this week are items de- signed to simplify beauty routines as well as make you lovelier. It seems that cosmeticians have out- done themselves to make theiE wares easy, even amusing, to use.
 A hand lotion that has been favorite for years and years now comes in a bottle with special stop per which acts as a drop-at-a-time dispenser. Your turn the bottle up- side down, press the dispenser top against your hand and get only one large drop, instead of quantities of liquid, half of which spills on the floor or in the wash basin. This does away with waste and, incid- entally, prevents dust and dirt from entering the neck of the bottle. :.
 A well known cologne now IS put out in a small siphon which operates in the same manner as Q soda wa. ter siphon. Instead of batting your self with cologne, you press a ntt- ton and spray it on. The siphon lasts for years. You simply buy re- fills for the bottle.
 Then, too, there is new curler gadget that will interest girls who have trouble with ringlet ends. You roll a strand of hair around the metal gadget, into the ends of which you have stuck a bobby pin or Q strong hahpin, then push the roll of and over the pin. When the curls are quite dry, pull out the bobby pins.
 Also new are lipsticks of Q spec cial composition that prevents Jumps and smears. One of these seems to give the lips depth and color as well as a luminous, rather transparent effect. It stays on for hours and hours, yet it doesn't make the mouth look painted or coated.

Your Children
By Olive Roberts Barton

London: When we stop to think of the number of children in city schools, who never have seen any country, believe an innovation 1s in order that really would cost very little and give them an idea of origins outside of books and speci- men cards. Simply to place in small cases within easy view vegetables and grains growing out of real soil. The camoudage would be so easy and the results so satisfying. By camouflage I mean that artificial products could be used where fresh ones would be impractical.
 All the grains from which breads and cereals are made would take on a new interest for the child who knows nothing more about them than the boxes they come in. And while we are at it, the idea could easily be enlarged to include most of the raw products of the world, liberal education for every child.
 Getting Acquainted
 It was only 8 few years ago that I first saw cotton growing. was so thrilled that insisted on going right into the field and pick ing a tough boil for myself. To the southern child this is everyday husi- ness, but not to those north of the Mason-and-D Dixon Line. On the other hand, these children, many of them, are as curious about our northern fruits as we are about their oranges.
 My first sight of an orange tree was red-letter-day indeed. Cof- fee was as great 8 miracle. But to this minute I never saw tea on its bush. And I have yet to see any kind of melon unpicked. This, of course, is an omission on my part, but 1t goes to show how we neglect discovering things un- less they are brought right under our noses. This is why I think that my little idea of "reap speci- mems in their own habitats would be grand thing for children.
 Other Growing Mysteries
 Who has seen a peanut growing, that little morsel we devour by the ton daily? Oh, yes, there are those to whom it is just as common as the air they breathe. But that Is just 1t. Something is always news to somebody. And peanuts can be news indeed.
 Bananas; is the tiny spot in the fruit the seed? Or is 1t in large blue bulb that suspends itself from the tree? You may look that one up. We eat tapioca. What on earth is the stun?
 What, actually is asparagus, for that matter? To this instant l have never seen 1t sprout. but I THINK I know. We all think we know this and that about our commonest foods. That is the trouble. Why not show the next generation some of the interesting things we have skipped over from sheer inertia? There is the mystery of chocolate, for instance, and CO., coa. Can you tell the exact differ- encee And chewing gum. What does chicle look like?
 On and on and on. I haven't begun. But if any school board is looking for 8 way to spend some money profitably, here is the plan all ready and waiting. Oh, no, to plant a banana tree would be quite a stunt. But miniatures would serve. Indeed they would Copyright, 1936, NEA Service, Incl

to confuse with illness caused by metallic poisons, either accidentally or purposely administered.
 In case of any poisoning, certain procedures are immediately de- sirable. Smelling the breath of the patient, examining remainders of the food, and questioning other persons who have eaten of the same food constitute a part of the investigation.
 Certain plants contain poisons; fo rexample, the castor bean, the bark from black locusts, the hem- lock, sour grass, and rhubarb. The potato occasionally is 8 source of serious poisoning, because soft po- tatoes, potatoes prematurely har- vested, or those that turn green on exposure to light contain a poison ous substance.
 Fortunately, the total number of fatalities from poisoning of this type is exceedingly low.

 Did you know that there are more parties given on Halloween than at any other single time dur ing the social year? Well, that's what statisticians report. Better join in the fun, telephone your friends, gather together to duck for apples, tell fortunes and, like all hungry ghosts, relish an appropri- ate Halloween supper.
 Serve the supper from a buffet. Use any long table covered with yellow crepe paper. Autumn fruits make god centerpieces, especially when fianked by tall yellow can- dles with black cardboard witches and cats climbing up their lumin- ous lengths. Arrange all the silver to be used in 6 geometric pattern near the edge of the table, have napkins, china and coffee cups ar- ranged for easy serving. Informal ity Is the spirit, buxom simplicity the keynote of the menu.
 [ Buffet Menu
 A menu like this will make witches scream with delight and black cats tinarch their backs and purr with satisfaction. The apple fuckers are going to like it, too. Baked beans, sliced baked ham, brown bread and cream cheese sand wiches, Halloween dessert, quarts and quarts of coffee, cigarettes and candies available, and a few good skeletons made of white cardboard lurking in the far corners of the room to scare up the appetite
 For the baked beans, use canned pork and beans. Use as many cans as you think will be needed. To the beans, add a little dry mustard, Q reasonable amount of Worcester shire sauce, a liberal sprinkling of brown sugar and a dash of cayenne pepper and few shakes of catsup. Burn into an attractive baking dish, dot with butter and bake in hot oven for 20 minutes. Far grander than you'd expect.
 Halloween Dessert
 Pour two-thirds cup of boiling water over 1-4 cup seeded raisins. Boil for 10 minutes, cool, drain. Dissolve 1 package orange gelatin dessert in 1 cup boiling water. add
