gagged in work relating to con- merce, Congress could not set a wage scale. That decision was followed recently by another to the effect that the states are with out power to set a minimum wage. There seems to be no source, state or federal, from Whi oh minimum wage regulations can lawfully proceed. The basis for the findings of the court is the right of the individual to make contracts about his own affairs. Adverse criticism of the decision is found in the dissent ing opinion of Justice Stone, who states in substance that the consti tuition does not commit the coun- try to a particular set of econo- mic beliefs any more than to a system of theology. The Presi- dents disapproval finds expres- sion in the statement that there has been created a No Mans Land wherein no government, state or federal can operate free ly and properly in the regulation of wages.

The Senate and the House are in substantial agreement regard ing the appropriation of about a billion and half for relief. That sum would have wiped out the entire national debt for thirty of the thirty-four years to which reference has been made. No ad- verse criticism of relief is intend ed and no opinion is offered on the subject of spending money The sole end in view is to indi- cate the meaning of figures that are too large for the mind to grasp when stated in mere terms of dollars and cents.

 Scheme For Simple Home

How can we banish stiffness from the dining room of the simple home and create scheme that is friendly and effective, although quite inex- pensive?
 Let us make 1t very informal, with papered walls done in one of those big diamond patterns with leafy vine running through 1t. An ivory ground with a soft green pattern would be effective and with 1t we could use simple ivory-toned organdie curtains with wide pleated ruffles. Let us suppose that there is broad window in the dining room. We will make those curtains ex- tremely full and use them criss- cross fashion, looped rather high over clear green Venetian blinds. If 1t is long window with a sill there will be some pots of ivy and green things in stiff little row along the ledge.
 For the carpet we may have a simple woven wool rug in tete dc negre plaided in large square, with line of the same green as that found in the paper. The furniture may consist of a simple gateleg table with drop leaf and chairs in Windsor or simple ladderback style. These pieces can be painted ivory and have loose cushions of very bright green, glazed chintz tied on with little cords. Then we may have a high Welsh dresser of maple in which to put quaint old porcelain plates, a few bits of old brass and a few old colored bottles. Or per- haps we might like those old colo nial bottles on the window shelf. For the center of the table we will use a porcelain basket filled with vari-colored fruits and the room is complete. Can you not feel the friendliness of such setting and know that every meal served there will be cheerful and enjoyable?

THE NOVOCAIN PACK IN
 EMERGENCY SURGERY

A boy suffered lacerations of the fiexor surface of the distal pha- langes of his hand, from grasping an open knife, reported Drs. Milo Fritz sl1d E. K. Tanner of Brook ley, in N. Y. State Jour. of Medi- cine. A novocain pack was applied to the lacerated third finger, but not to the fourth. Suturing of the third finger was painless, but the boy suffered pain when the fourth finger was sewed up.
 For years physicians have injected local anesthetics about the edges of wounds, that is, into the tissue, to make the stitching of the wound painless. Of course there is some slight pain produced by the first needle prick, and this is a draw back, especially in the case of child or a very sensitive person. Some physicians prefer to give ni- trous oxide 0aughing gaS) while inserting sutures or otherwise ap- plying the first aid treatment of a wound.
 Drs. Fritz and Taner have found the novocain pack highly satis- factory. Small fresh accidental wounds are well anesthetized by the application of 1% novocain solution on gauge pads which are left upon or in the wound for from 5 to minutes.
 Such wounds may be surgically cleansed and stitched without pain. This insures the best cosmetic re- suits. If wound is bleeding freely the novocain would be washed away in the blood; this may be prevented by first applying 1: 1000 adrenalin pack which stops the hemorrage.
 This method of wound anesthesia has the advantage of simplicity. IL obviates the danger of infection and the tissue distwortion of the infil- tration method. It favors the best cosme....o results.

 Brown, unless light and golden should be avoided by the brown haired, creamy skinned, dark-eyed type. A brown suit which matches or nearly matches her hair is likely to make for pretty monotonous ef- feet. That is, unless she always wears a bright scarf and gay bou- tonniere which provide contrast and break the line of brown from head to foot.
 Gray, another popular spring color, calls for bright accessories, too. Red, violet or green hat and gloves give gray zest and keep the sombre tones of it from making your skin appear pale and faded.
 Very light and extremely in- tense blues are flattering to al- most all blondes. For brunettes, dusty blues. with gray undertones. are best. Blue, of course, calls for vivid makeup-scarlet lipstick and bright rouge. Y

TODAY's HEALTH QUESTION

Q.-Are furs likely to lead to infections of the skin after being laid on chairs in public places or worn around the neck without frequent visits to 8 cleaner? Are the dyes used on some kinds of fur sanitary?
 A.-The likelihood of skin infections being conveyed by a fur neckpiece or coat, after being laid over a chair or table, is rather remote, but 1t Is pos sible. Paraphenylendiamine, a dye used by furriers, is poison- ous to the skin of some persons and severe inflammations of the skin have been caused by furs dyed with 1t or by hair dyes containing it.

 Your Children
By Olive Roberts Barton

Sometimes am convinced that we are SO busy trying to fit to- gether edges of the puzzle-pieces of Q child's behavior, we lose light of the picture itself.
 A pair of parents were nonplussed about a small incident that seemed to me so very apparent. Perhaps, however, the success of amateur hours today may have something to do with Tommy's odd announce ment in school that he could play bugle.
 Tommy is six. And just what led up to his raising his hand and say ing he could blow a tune on Q bugle and would bring 1t to school to prove it. his teacher would have to tell you.
 I think 1t was some idea about all the children bringing their simple fnusic-rnakers along some day and showing the others what tunes they knew. '.Mouth-or- gans," perhaps, or the seven-tone flutes you pick up at the and 10. Xylophones, toy pianos, 'ukes, zithers- why, we eveh had . quar- ter marimba here one time, made out of short ribs of beef. At any rate, these tots of six and seven were evidently asked to bring anything they had and could play Peter, Peter" on. Or just plain Over the Fence Is Out"
 But Tommy said he had a bugle. So he had his bluff called and the teacher didn't know what to ex- pect. Nothing was what Tommy produced next day. Nothing flat.
 This is his mothers story: He came home all excited and said he was going over to Uncle Billy's house. Grandpa had once played 8 bugle and 1t was hanging on a nail in Uncle Billy's attic. The teacher had asked him to bring 1t.
 Tommy brought 1t home, laid 1t on his bed, and that was the end of 1t. He made no attempt to blow 1t, at least not that his mother or father could hear.
 Next day he went off to school without the horn. They called him back, but he gave vague answer and proceeded on his way.
 Tommy never mentioned 1t again. And possibly his teacher Is still as puzzled as anyone. Why did Tommy cook up this story? And why did he suddenly become 50 mysterious and disinter- ested1 Was he just making up a fairy-tale to attract attention?
 Tt wasn't like him at all," said his mother.
 Thought Blowing Buele . Cinch
 T think guessed 1t right, though. Don't you see? Tommy sees people play all sorts of in- struments. He think all you have to do is to own one, blow in 1t or hammer on 1t and the music takes care of itself. He can't conceive that there is any such thing as having to learn"
 But he didn't try2"
 I'm sure he did. Oh his way home from his uncle's, he experi- merted on that ancient horn and found he couldn't even force enough air out of his small lungs to make a sound. It was big and heavy and nothing like the tin horns he had owned. He won't confess that 1t was all a mistake"
 Doesn't 1t shed @ light on little children? Doesn't 1t show that they have little idea how everything, in- cluding music, has to be learned? That some magic tells people how to bake cakes and roller skate and drive cars2 Did you ever hear a three-year-old beg for real bicycle,

A slice of steak about three inches by two by one-half inch in size, and weighing about one-tenth of 8 pound, provides 10 grams of protein, 6 grams of fat and about 100 calo- ries Veal IS about the same, but ham and bacon require much less to give the same amount of energy.

TESTED RECIPES
Greens Are Good Raw

Many greens may be used raw as a salad. Or they may be nodded and chilled after cooking and served with a piquant dressing.
 Chickory and escarole are more succulent if they are cooked when they are young and pale green color. When fully mature. the leaves become yellowish and are better eaten raw with any good salad dressing.
 A very simple way to cook beet greens is with bacon fat and a thick slice of lemon-rind and all. This gives the greens an excellent flavor without the bother of making Q tart sauce. By the way, you can have many Q fine mess of greens from thinning the rows of beets in your garden this spring.

Edmund Kean, the famous actor, 1t b said, used to fit his diet to the part he had to play. He would eat pork for the role of tyrant; beef for that of murderer, and mutton for that of lover.
 There was just as much sense to this idea as there is to that of per sons who still think that what we cat affects our personality.
 Some vegetarians say that meat eaters have tendency to become ferocious, while those who abstain from meat are gentle in tempera- fI1ent. Others say that meat con- tains harmful germs. yet most of tis know that meat sold in interstate commerce is under government con- trol, and that, when properly cooked, 1t has no harmful germs.
 The truth is that meat is an im- portant food that is often included in diets designed to increase weight or to sustain normal nutrition, par ticularly for the working man.
 Americans eat great amounts of meat, consisting mostly of beef, veal, pork, lamb, fish and fowl. The muscle meats do not provide many of the essential ingredients for heaithful diet as compared with glandular organs, such as liver and kidney. The glandular organs, or entrails, contain considerable quan- titles of the important yitamins.
 Meats should not be important parts of reducing diets, although small portion of meat can do no particular harm if properly calcu- lated as one constituent. For exam pie, two slices of the breast of duck,

more and more important on the fashion hori- zon. These have to offer very definite char acter of originality, however to achieve ele- gance. That is why the late Jean Patou called upon painters for his last designs, certain that they would accomplish not only color combina- tions never yet seen, but would also interpret them in an entirely different vein. Before this prints were apt to be monotonous because 50 many commercial designers, although excellent in their field, were bound by habit and too rig orous technique to indulge in flights of fancy
 However beautiful and exciting these mul- ticolored fabrics may be, they will never exclude the handsome crepes and satins which are now considered the basic and classical mediums of any collection of evening gowns. Other fabrics do not possess their marvellous draping facilities which after all is very important feature of any evening mode

An entirely new use is being made of bead embroidery as Q decorative motif Certain sheer prints offering more or less pastelzed de- signs, for example, are underlined in subtle touches with brilliant tubular beads in the same tones. This contributes note of precos- ity to the voluntary sobriety of certain fabrics and line.
 On the other hand, very indicative trend is to be found in the revival of the entirely beaded gown for formal evenings. But these have also been subjected to an entirely new technique. Sren-lik models covered with pail letes or beads, dispensing iridescent shafts of light, are now yelled by chiffon or tulle, or ap- pear in transparence under black organsa wrap cut on sober, almost classical lines.
