J WOMAN,S REALM
AhsAsts11
Your
Children

One of the greatest problems Of.
the average mother is that II feed
ing her husband to his taste and
at the same time putting simple
fare on the table for the children.
Father comes home, tired and
hungry, having had snatch lunch,
perhaps, and a hurried breakfast.
The one meal Of the day that he en-
joys Is his dinner, and he wants 1t
to be good. He has right to this.
Even though gravy is not good for
his gall bladder or pie for his stom-
ach, still and all, that's his business.
Mothers Dilemma
We are speaking of contentment
here, not of diets and what not. If
he wants to take his chances on q
headache( that is something be-
tween himself and his doctor. If he
Is reasonably well, and most people
are, you know, then 1t does seem
too bad for him to be set down to
cruel and BUTTERFLIES cookies, just
because the kids have to have them.
Mother tries to give the babies an
earlier supper, with cereal, fruit
and an egg, but the first thing you
know, Papa says he is tired of COM
ing home every night after the fry
are in bed. SO that is changed.
And what with two .suppers coming
at the same time, the result is that
the youngsters sit at the feast with
their spoons and bibs and yell, II
want some of that" And it's all of.
Mother tries to compromise be-
tween Daddy's appetite and the
Nursery Book which says Eight sup
pers" for all young children.
You can't keep them from COB
bling all the goodies, one allowed
at the big table. They insist on
things au gratin, on Thousand
Island dressing and hard sauce. And
they wake up with furred tongues,
not-so-furry dispositions the next
morning, and a tummy ache in the
bargain. All because no one has the
will power to deny them. Maybe the
delectables are fairly innocent, and
only such things as beef steak and
mashed potatoes are on the menu.
But, If the children are very small,
the continued heavy meal will inter-
fere with sleep and general health.
What is to be done, then, when
Tommy and Tiny and Tagalong all
pop down at the evening table laden
with rich dishes to gladden. Dads
heart? Well, all children must learn
that they cannot have all the things
to eat, to do, to see or to experience
that their elders have.
It is not easy to prepare two sets
of dinners (suppers to youngsters,
but if their father insists on hav-
ing them present, as well as his
favorite dishes, then it will be ne
cessary to do just this very thing.
Or, If Tommy Is six or so, maybe
Daddy will be satisfied to have him
alone, and Tiny and Tag can be
slowed away early, after their
cereal and soup. AS they come up
on the door frame, to Tommy's de-
light, they too may be introduced
into the dinner circle. But which
ever way you decide to work out
the problem, it is still best to watch
over bedtime meals.

Clarifying
Yourself

The next time cynic pooh
poohs your face cream and tells you
that it doesn't do your skin bit
Of good, here's your answer.
Although there's much debate
about absorption by the skin, au-
thorities agree that absorption
through the skin does occur. In
absorption through the skin the skin
merely acts as the funnel through
which the substance enters the body.
BIT In absorption by the skin, there
is implied an effect upon the skin
itself at the point of application.
Many cosmeticians claim that
their creams can be absorbed by the
complexion. Whether or not this Is
true in every case, the fact remains
that an oil which penetrates the
outer or horny layer of the skin
is bound to do some good on its
way thrugh.
Under a microscope, the outer lay
er les very much like shingled
roof. Diminutive sections overlap
each other closely. When the Sc
baceous glands below this horny
surface fail to produce normal
amount Of oil, excessive dryness &C.
ours. Therefore, even If cream is
absorbed Throughout by-your
skin, the oils in 1t. will be deposited
in your body, and If your complex
ion Is very dry, you probably need
it.
Then, too, as the absorption
takes place, the outer layer Is soft
ened. Oiled, too, for the time be-
ing at least. Since dry condition
always is forerunner of premature
lines and wrinkles, steps should be
taken to alleviate it as soon as pos
sible.
If your skin is very dry, cleanse
with cream, removing it with wash
cloth that has been dipped In hot
water, then pat on night cream.
Use upward and outward strokes.
And don't neglect your throat and
the back of your neck.

PYoRRHEA AND GINGIvITIs

PYOkKHEA AND GINGlVIIlS
Pyorrhea is suppurative inflamma-
ton of the periosteum or bone
covering membrane lining the tooth
sockets, with shrinkage or atrophy
of the gums, and loosening of the
teeth. Gingivitis Is Inflammation of
the gums. Both are essentially the
same degenerative disease and, ac-
cording to, modern authorities, the
condition variously called pyorrhea
alveolaris, Riggs disease, chronic
gingivitis and Fauchard's disease, is
fundamentally a manifestation Of
faulty nutrition.
We can offer only general infor-
nation and advice concerning
causes, prevention and relief. 1t re-
mains for your own dentor to treat
specific conditions in your case. He
knows best whether your teeth re-

Most doctors now are convinced
that gargling is not an accurate or
efficient way to kill germs in the
throat. Even an expert gargler will
have trouble getting fluid far enough
down to reach the irritated or in
fected spot. And the fluid Is not
kept long enough in contact with
the irritation or infection to do any
good.
A gargle is essentially wash.
If It can reach the infectious ma
terial and flush it from the surface,
the material will be expelled when
the gargle fluid leaves the mouth.
A gargle also can relieve some Of
the dryness Of the mouth or throat
that Is usually present with in
fiammation, and thus lessen the ir-
ritation.
II O gargle has a pleasant taste,
it will have the advantage OF SUBJ

but many a gargle solution makes

Since infectious material fire.

any mouth or throat wash, there

of three coat dresses that are made

open skirts that are split almost
ub to the waistline and reveal
much of the skirt or dress worn
underneath.
One of these redingote frocks is
made in natural colored linen for
morning wear and another in shown
in printed silk for afternoon. The
evening costume is in black organdy
worked in q chain stitch of en-
broidery in brightly colored floral
patterns. All three Of these are
worn over the same simple black
crepe dress.
Two-color contrasts are shown
for evening wear. One outstanding
gown in black has half the boz
dice of cherry colored mousseline. A
panel of the same brilliant red falls
down the back of the dress like a
short train. Chestnut brown NOUS

combination with lime green mousse
line that is made into back panels.
