4 TOO HASTY DIVORCE

But she married George. George
liked the night clubs, too. and SO
they haunted them frequently to-
gether. But from the first there was
trouble about money; George wasn't
making enough for that sort of life
Eventually they were compelled to
settle down and stay at home nights.
Then the baby came, which gave
them all the more reason for staying
at home instead of gadding about The
night spots.
BUT THEY found home life
rather dreary and boring after their
old lives A fire of restlessness
burned in their hearts. They we're
moody and they fought She ac-

poor man. He complained that she
spent too much money on her
clothes. keeping his nose TO the pro-

love again. this time with a widow
who had a small income from her

Then. a few weeks later. Eva .e-

Symptoms Disappear

When the diet again becomes COM

appear and the bones resume their
normal conditions. The addition of
cod liver oil to the diet has been
found to promote extremely rapid
restoration.
Only one or two cases have been
reported in the United States, so
none of my readers need to get sug.
gestible and think they are coming
down with il.
One case in the United States

in patient whose condition had been

CLEANING SATIN
IS DEAR TO BRIDE
White or Ivory
Preferred TO
Pale CoIors

n IL / IL " u u IL Well-knOWn
dressmakers in Paris have been
sponsoring colored wedding
gowns-blue, pink and lilac
white satin or ivory is still dear
to the heart Of most modern
brides.
New tricks with bridal gowns
make them practical to wear as
evening dresses after the we'd
ding. OF course you may never
want to wear yours again after
the Great Day, but may put it
away wrapped in blue tissue,
with your veil, slippers, gloves,
etc, to possibly put on on an
niversaries, and to show the
grandchildren. You may be that
romantic kind of woman.
But many brides are not.
They feel they like to get their
moneys worth out of their we'd
ding dresses and to enjoy them
while they are still in style, in
stead Of boarding them for future
generations to rave-or laugh
at. Modern apartments do not
lend themselves to appropriate
storage places for finery, and
even the model house is apt to
be small.
Acetate Satin Used
The wedding gown sketched
is white acetate satin, and it may
serve later as an evening gown
as the train is attached to the
jacket and can be cut off. The
dress itself is shirred and has
a deep V neckline. The little
tailored jacket is fastened with
white satin frogs, and wreath
of flowers holds the veil in place.
The bridesmaids dress is a
smart new jacket frock of lace
which may be pink or blue, or
green or lilac, whatever your
choice may be. There is V
necked evening dress beneath
the jacket. If you choose pink
let it be the new blush shade,
or blue in the latest violine-or
reddish blue-hue. A matching
slip of acetate crepe comes with
the dress.
The printed dinner dress,
right, is suggested for the brides
trousseau. 1t is a becoming
style and is of pure-dye silk
hand-blocked print in multi
colors, with a graceful girdle
sash in two wide bands of chiffon
in contrasting shades to tie at
side, front or back.
Lady Angela Scott, youngest
sister of the Duchess of Glou-
cester, recent bride of one of
King Edward VIll's brothers,
chose a creamy white satin for
her wedding dress. 1t has a
high draped neckline, from
which a long center panel of
minute shocking reaches almost
to the floor.

Bone Ill
Is Caused
By Famine
Disease Due to Lack
of Food Appeared
During War
By LOGAN CLENDENING, M. D.

SEVERAL YEARS ago. right after
the war. the physicians OF German
hospital were studying patient with
curious disease or the bones. All
of them agreed he could not live very
long. and as opportunities to study
this disease were few. the institution
offered him the sum of $15 week X
he would agree to deed his body TO
them after death. He was glad to
agree, and they are still paying him
the money.
The story Is quite easy to believe
and to understand. He was dread
fully poor. and even among the WELL
to-do in wartime Germany food was
sea. ce and of poor quality. AS soon
as this patient was in funds he was
able to eat again. and as his disease
was due to famine. he got well.
The condition. which began to be
observed frequently in 1918 in Ger
many and Austria. was called hun
ger-osteomalacia". Essentially II
consisted in an absorption of the
does when there is scarcity of cal
cium in the diet. 1t must have cal
cium so it attacks the calcium stores
in the bones and teeth
The outstanding symptoms are
pains in the joints. The first thing
most OF the patients noticed was diff
ticulty in walking. due to pain in
the ankles and toes Dropsy Of the
feet and legs usually followed. The
back was next affected. and stopping
or walking became so painful that
the patients took to their beds rather
than endure the discomfort. The
pain extends also to the ribs. and
frequently the bones become so fra
Gle that they break spontaneously

fractures

PEARL BUCK
LECTURES

Contrary to popular opinion,
the Chinese are more akin tenn
peramentally to Americans than
they are to Japanese.
Such was the statement last
night of Pearl Buck, noted author
of novels on Chinese life, who
lectured at Constitution Hall be-
fore an audience of 1000 persons.
Mrs. Buck, said, speaking Of
the Chinese:
"They have the same shrewd-
ness, sense Of humOr, SkepticiSm
and desire to evade issues we do.
They have the same common
sense and are not mystical like
the Japanese or Indians. We
both are essentially a nOn-re-
ligiOus people,"
The novelist declared, however,
that there is a difference between
the outlook of the young people
of America and China. She said:
II was talking with a couple
Of Princeton students recently,
and they told me they were in
terested solely in a job, security
and amaSsing a fortune. In the
new China of today it would be
hard to find a young person who
did not in some way want to
strike out for his country or
his generation"
Mrs. Buck, who was introduced
by Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt,
spoke in the interests Of a char
ity for children.
