BREAKFAST TREAT
 By NEA Service
 One of the finest meals in 8 well-run American household is the Sunday breakfast. For once, the family is assembled for breakfast and can eat the meal without think ing of the morning train to the city, getting the children of to school or the many other reasons for watching the clock of morn- ing.
 A good Sunday breakfast is what you make it. If you serve the iden- tical fare as you do on weekdays. it's just another meal. Most of us eat sketchy breakfasts, anyway, and Sunday is just the time to have something that can be eaten with leisurely appreciation. Something like cornbread or pop overs in place of toast or rolls, for example.
 There's school of thought that is firmly convinced that good pop overs can only be made in iron pop over pans. Others favor muffin tins. Whichever you use, here's the recipe:
 12 Large Popovers
 Two eggs, cup milk, cup flour. 2 tablespoons melted butter, 1-2 teaspoon salt.
 The real trick in making pop overs, no matter what kind of pan you use, iron or tin, is to be sure the pans are piping hot before you put the batter in. Bear this in mind. and your popovers will be all you could hope for.
 First grease the pans thoroughly and put them in hot oven until the fat begins to steam. In the meantime, beat the eggs about two minutes, add the milk and beat again.
 The more you beat them, the more air in the batter, making lighter, better popovers.
 Sift in the flour, mixed with the salt.
 Lastly add the melted butter.
 Now, pour the batter into the steaming hot tins, filling them half full.
 Place in moderately hot (35O degrees) oven for 20 minutes.
 When the popocers are done they will pop over the sides and and top of the tins to about 3 to 3 inches They will be brown on top and look O oIHsOIxnfa1xy da1{Ot0s1c
 They are really nothing but 2 hollow shell, crisp and brown or the outside. A good Sunday breakfast would be chilled melon or grapefruit, shir red eggs in ramekins, popovers homemade jam or honey. and coffee.
 Of course, the size of the morning meal on Sundays is determined by what time you have dinner-at noon or in the evening. If you have a late afternoon or. evening dinner on Sundays, a large break. fast is in order. Crisp bacon is de- licious with shirred eggs and may be added, if you desire.

doctor said leave it alone and it will go away in time. But it has not done so. We are told it will have to be operated on. Tried keeping 1t taped, but no results except to make hand sore. (G. McG.)
 Answer-The lump may be readily removed, sac and all, by dissection under local anasthesia. Nothing less is worth while. Ancient way was to rupture sac by sharp tap on lump with back of book, then keep 1t compressed with suitable pad and bandage for week. Sometimes this seemed to work. I had one for ten years. Never got up grit to bring it to book. Eventually it disappeared. Mine was not larger than an al- mond, but sometimes it aehed like melon.

Skill Needed In Removing Foreign
 Substances From The Eye

remove them with the point of clean pocket handkerchief or with 8 clean piece of gauge.
 removing first washes his hands thoroughly. Then he may turn down the lower lid of the eye and look carefully for the foreign sub- stance.
 Next, he should take 8 small match stick, and lay 1t across the upper eyelid. AS the patient looks downward, the attendant grasps the eyelashes and turns the eyelid up- ward so that the inside of the lid becomes visible, and can be ex- amined carefully.
 When the foreign substance is discovered, it is removed with a piece of sterile gauge or with fresh handkerchief.
 After the piece of dust or dirt has been removed, the eye may be washed with a saturated solution of boric acid. This is made by add ing a fiat teaspoonful of boric acid to glassful of lukewarm water The mixture is stirred until the boric acid is dissolved.
 No one should attempt to re- move a foreign body from the sur face of the eyeball unless he has had special training. Until an ex- pert is able to see the eye, it is safer merely to place small pad of wet gauge over it and to refrain from moving the eye until competent at- tention can be had.
 A specialist will aneSthetize the eyeball so that the patient will not suffer pain. He will then examine the eye carefully with magnify ing glass and other instruments, and will have available instruments nec- essary for dislodging the particle.
 Other conditions affecting the eye will be discussed later in this series in articles concerned particularly with the eye.

 Repititicn is the secret of habit ' believe this to be responsible for repeated mistakes in grammar. The child learns to say "T seen" at home and perhaps uses the term or one just as bad, some hundred times Q day. Then at school he Is taught that 1T saw" is right. In school he writes it a few times and is corrected when he uses t orally, but this is not enough to offset the perpetual usage at home
 Perhaps few children actually say q seen' today, but the num- ber who are really ungramEaati- cal, if not illiterate, is appalling. Sometimes I wonder why schools don't have some special way of defeating this careless, and almost national, habit.
 It's Up to Mothers
 Now it often happens that 8 mother knows her verbs and cases very well. She knows, for instance, that "He doesn't" is right and 'E1e don't" is wrong. But she, too, has become careless through the years, because her husband or the neighbors take little stock in correct speaking. It goes either one way or the other: either the correct one converts the other, or the incorrect one influ- ences the erstwhile follower of good form. The trend is usually down, just as shiftless character will take the finer one with it.
 So 1t is the woman of the fams fly; as 1t usually is, who must try to elevate the whole general tenor of speech.
 Repetition is the cure. Have Johnny, who persists in saying The don't" come right to your knee and say fifty times at a Sit- ting, "he doesn't" "she doesn't" it doesn't" Let him skip the don't" words such as T don't" i've don't" "they don't" during his exercises, because you want him to remember that only few pronouns are followed by doesn't" It must become second nature for him to choose the combination. It sounds hard, but it is as simple as can be.
 Start on ChiId's Errors
 If he says T seen" or anything like 1t, begin on that. Get after the glaring mistakes first. If he drops his "g's" and says 'treadin" put him through course of 'ings". If he uses "aint" for everything, try to make him say ''are not" or isn't. The word is used some places correctly as an abbreviation, but it makes most people shiver, and rightly.
 Get the pronouns sorted. If Johnny insists on saying ''him and me vent, make him say 'he and I" dozens of times a day. One thing at Q time. It is worth while to spend weeks in revamp- ing one wrong phrase of Johnny,s. The whole family can drone their daily dozen together. Put little fun into it. Demand small penalties for infractiors.

THE VITAMIN TREATMENT OF CHRONIC ARTHRITIS

OC NkAhOINkO ANA AAAAOA AAO
 Two cases of arthritis included by chance in a group under treatment for hay fever showed such extraor- dinary improvement in the first month of treatment that the physi- cians conducting the experiment de- cided to test the treatment on arth- ritis sufferers who were not subject to hay fever or asthma. This clin- ical test, which, after all, is the de- cisive test of any treatment, was made on their own patients and pa tients of their colleagues throughout the country. All of the reports available to date indicate that the new treatment is neither specific for arthritis nor adequate by itself in all cases, but when properly ad- ministered in combination with whatever other measures may be i1- dicated in the individual case this vitamin treatment deserves the att tention of every victim of arthritis and his physician.
 Briefly defined, the new treatment consists in daily doses of 100000 units of vitamin D, which must be taken for months. If no definite improvement occurs within the first month, the daily dose is thereafter 30O,O0O units. If no improvement in the second month, the daily dose thereafter is 100000 units of vitamin D. Most of the good results are ob- served when the dose is 300,000 or 500,000 units daily. In some cases marked improvement occurs within the first three weeks, but in any case the vitamin treatment must be continued three months before the individual case may be fairly judged refractory. Some patients have taken more than 100000 units of vitamin D daily for short periods before they began to improve. and in no instance has there been any serious ill effects such as we for merly imagined might ensue from such heavy dosage of vitamin ID. The physician adjusts the dosage to obviate mild disturbances which may occur in a few Representative patients. All of the technical infor- nation in reference to this treatA meat is available to physicians ev- anywhere.
 As it is impossible for a patient to take enough vitamin D in any na- tural form, it Is necessary to employ synthetic vitamin D in this treat ment. There are half 9 dozen high potency vitamin D preparations available, developed by different processes, but all equally potent and all standardized by biological assay As far as I know there is no reason to prefer any particular high po- tency vitamin D preparation, save only the price. There is 8 remark able range in the cost of synthetic vitamin D per thousand units or per day.
 On theoretical ground physicians have feared the possibility of hyper calcemia (too much calcium Tn blood and tissues), deposits of cal. cium in the organs, or elevation oi blood pressure from calcification or hardening of the arteries, from ex- cessive doses of vitamin D. Careful observation of a large number Of patients who received these massive doses of vitamin D over periods of months, with chemical and meta bolic studies, have failed to show any such untoward effect.
 Patients tolerate the massive doses of vitamin D better, and get on better in any case, if they receive

Glori0img Yourself

 Exercises which keep your waist line supple will reduce your stonl- ach and make it's muscles film in- stead of habby. Naturally, you shouldn't expect immediate results from any exercise routine. It took months, maybe years, for the excess weight to develop, so it is foolishly optimistic to hope to remove 1t in a day or two. -~-. ...-.
 Lie flat on the floor with arms stretched high above your head feet together. Keeping hands up, pull your body upward to sitting po- sition. Bend forward, touching toes with fingertips. Repeat twenty times.
 Make Lazy Muscles Work
 Now stand about 30 inches away from fiat wall-feet about 8 foot apart. Stretch hands upward above your head and, taking great care not to lose your balance, bend back ward, making hands touch the wall behind you. Hold the position for a few seconds, relax and repeat
 Lie on 8 hard couch with cen- ter of your back across the bottom of it. Support your weight with your hands, then gradually lower your body until head almost touches the floor. Without using hands at all, pull yourself upward to sitting po- sition. Repeat three or four times. This, of course, is difficult to do, but it does stretch and pull lazy stom- ach muscles, strengthen the back and stimulate circulation.
 Blood to Head Helps
 Incidentally, facial experts en- dorse the idea of keeping your head lower than your feet while mask is drying or while you are skipping on tissue cream. One well known beauty shop is equipped with special chairs which can be tilted backward until, the customers head is fully eighteen inches lower than her feet.
 The idea is to make blood rush to throat and face and feed tissues that are under-nourished. To make use of this theory at home, simply lie on a hard bed with one pillow under your back, two under hips and three or four under feet. None under your head, of course. Stay this way until the mask is dry or until cream starts to disappear.

 lars and cuffs in broadtail, seal or astrakhan on quite casual e1sem- bles.
 Add Richness to Fabrics
 The silky surface of broadcloth, the velvety depths of duVetype and the new rich tones of the seasons colors are all enhanced by fur trimming. The Empire silhouette is o..sen underlined by 8 high buttoned fur yoke. Then again, the entire back panel of an afternoon coat, whether full or Seven-eighthS length, often is carried out entirely in flat -broadcloth astrakhan or Alaskan seal-With corre- spending fur panel featured at the front of the skirt.
 Fur hens the edge of the swirl ing afternoon tunic jacket and the becoming, fluffy lynx has staged an elective comeback in the form of comfortable collars, built high at the back to form a frame for the face and extending into 8 widened triangular effect in front. At Patou's there is a handsome after noon coat in snowe gray wool, en- tirely edged with lynx, which shows 8 new trend in fur trimmings.
 Detachable fur skirts, topped by fur boleros, are novelties worthy of note. There is one such costume in nearly every collection of im- portance. Vionnett does this in silky broadtail, with 8 cape instead of 8 bolero top. Lucille Paray com- pines deep cypress green lainage with black Alaska sealskin, with the lainage showing at the waist line, and edging the fur skirt on an afternoon ensemble. The dress is of lighter wool in matching green.
 Fur Sleeves Are New
 Vionnett sponsors deep and very wide sailor collars on her simple suits. She is also showing some looped cape sleeves in silver fox, astrakhan and seal which are new. These looped sleeves, by the way, are carried through the collection and are shown in Self-fabric as well as in fur. Many of the formal afternoon coats with this new sleeve treatment reveal gli1npses of the vivid satin or silk blouse, under reath when the wearer moves.
 Maggy Rouff has found way of utilizing all the fox tails that every dressmaking house must have ac- cumulated this season. She makes long, narrow "boas" out of them which can be worn in many dif- ferent ways, such as knotted on one side, or loopsd together with one end thrown over the shoulder. Helm has revived the old-fashioned fur stole, which he does in astraghan, in seal or even in dyed squirrel.

only other conditions affecting the eyelide and demanding attention are wounds, burns and insect bites Insect bites on the eyelids cause g great deal of swelling. The applica- ton of cold congresses usually will cause the swelling to subside grad ually. .-
 A wound of the tissues around the eye may be serious to sight itself It should immediately be covered with a piece of sterile gauge, and competent doctor consulted as soor as possible.

 When you get something in your eye that does not belong there, you notice it immediately. Foreign sub stances in the eyes are anoying. If the eyeball happens to bescraped by coat sleeve, piece of paper, or other substance, the irritation is ex- trenne. Theeye responds immediately by pouring out fluid to lessen the ir- ritation. If, however, the eye be- comes inflamed, exposure to light is painful, causing constant blink ing.
 If . small cinder or bit of dust or glass gets into the eye, it may become lodged on either the eye ball or eyelid, and the longer it remains, the more painful and ir- ritating will be the disturbance. .
