they smooth and soft and Is your
hand lotion entirely satisfactory? II
not, we have some news for you.
Woman's hands tell many secrets
and one need not be palmist to read
their messages. Smooth white hands
signify youth and beauty and the way
to acquire them is direct and simple.
We have found three essentials fer
the care of the hands that will take
all guesswork out Of obtaining salts
factory results. They are specially
prepared soap, q cream and rubber
gloves. The soap is lanolin soap Gre
ated to protect the skin, cleansing it
thoroughly without removing the nat
Oil extracted from the wool Of sheep
and is one of the most effective skin
softeners known. It is used in many
texture creams and replaces the nat
ural oils that the skin may lose
through exposure.
The hand cream is specially blended
with healing lubricants, including gen.
erous quantities of almond oil and fine
pure olive oil. The cream quickly pen
etrates the hand skin and does won-

A single application will illustrate its
healing properties and continued use
will assure a smooth skin.
The third item, which will be of in
terest to any one who has to wash
dishes or do any sort Of house or office
work that is unkind to the hands, Is a
pair of thin rubber gloves. These

intelligence as he thinks Of the hours
Of agony he goes through wondering
how he Is going to meet his note in
the bank, of how his nerves are frayed
to the breaking point by unreasonable
bosses and incompetent employees, Of
how at times his very soul turns sick
with fear as he thinks Of the helpless
wife and little children dependent
upon him.
So the argument goes on about which
is the lucky one in marriage. It is
never settled because marriage is not
all beer and skittles for either husband
or wife and each heart knoweth its
own bitterness and each back how
heavy the load it bears. Practically
the question can never be settled, but
ofiicially it has been. In q survey of
this matter, which has been conducted
by a learned psychologist, 1t was found
that there were many more happy
husbands than there were happy wives,
and that men generally were better
satisfied with marriage than women
were.
\ X X
GO THE ladies win out. Marriage Is
~ harder on the wife than it is on
the husband. Men do get the breaks
in matrimony and this is inevitable
from the very nature Of things. Mar
riage makes or breaks q wonan's life,
but it is only dent in q mans. If
woman's home life is q failure, she is
bankrupt. But q man has his ambi-
tions, his career with which to solace
himself, and he Is free to seek outside
amusements which his wife cannot do
without scandal.
II woman marrieS man who Is
grouchy and disagreeable, or dull and
boresome, she has to endure him with
what fortitude she may. But man
can make his getaway from stupid
and nagging wife because he always
has the unassailable alibi Of business.
So It Is no wonder that there are
more happy husbands than wives.
They do get the best Of the bargain
in marriage.

with Just what the nutritionist means
when he maintains that a moderately
active man needs about 5000 calories
per day. and moderately active
woman about 1900 calories.
Galleries are units Of measure" the
bureau explains. Applied to food
they measure its value as fuel for the
human body. A slice Of bread, for
example, yields so many calories OF
fuel value or energy. A serving OF
meat, Of vegetables. fruit, milk. but
ter, sugar, each yield so many cal
ories-and the count of the calories in
all the foods that 60 to make up three
meals a day shows whether those
meals furnish enough energy or fuel.
"EUEL, however, is only one Of the
essentials. The body must have
energy to keep it alive and active. and
it gets this energy from food much as
the combustion engine burns fuel to
produce the force that makes the
engine 60. The average man OF
moderately active occupation uses
about 5000 calories Of energy each
day, the average moderately active
woman uses about 1900 calories.
Therefore they need fuel enough to
furnish those calories, and they get 1t
in their food.
'Food serves as fuel because 1t con-
tains substances the body can burn.
| Those substances are carbohydrates,
fats and proteins. All foods contain
one or more of these substances.
therefore all foods have some fuel
value, but some have more than others
because they contain so much more
fuel substance. These energy foods,
as they are called, include the cereals
and sugars, which are richest in car
bohydrates, and butter and the mar
garines, lard and the vegetable oils,
which are concentrated fats. Meat,
fish, eggs and cheese, which are the
chief protein foods and have various
other food values, are also valuable
for fuel
"The vegetables and fruits, for the
most part, come lower in fuel value,
although potatoes have a high calorie
rating because of the starch they
contain. Well up in the list comes
beans and peas, especially soybeans.
All of these are rich in carbohydrates,
fat and proteins. Ripe bananas are rich
in sugar; avocados are usually rich
in fat.
ION the other hand, foods that are
watery and fibrous, like the greens,

tomatoes cucumbers, sauerkraut, rhu-
barb, summer squash and various

ing and they may also be worn at
night as q beauty treatment. In each
case the hand cream is rubbed into
the skin before the gloves are slipped
on. And, by the way, these gloves have
pebbly or crepey fingers so that wet
dishes will not slip through them cas-
lily. With the cream applied to the
hands under the gloves, every move
ment messages the cream into the

will be amazed at their smoothness.

WHEN Drs. Minot and Murphy,
Boston, were able to prsve that
eating calf's liver would cure and pre-
vent pernicious anaemia it marked
another great step in medicine, be-
cause, before, this pernicious anaemia
was considered incurable. Later 1t
was found that cows, pigs, lambs
and even horses liver were likewise
effective, but perhaps not as easy for
the patient to eat. About or 6
ounces o day make complete dose.
Then came the discovery that ex-
tract of liver taken by mouth or in
jected into the veins was just as ef-
fective, and this was certainly a great
boon to those who disliked the taste
of liver. Another discovery quickly
followed this and that was that ex-
tract Of hogs stomach acted just as
well as liver in pernicious anaemia-
that Is, increasing the number OF red
corpuscles and the amount Of iron In
these red corpuscles.
And now q Berlin research ply

Of enriching the blood and curing per-
nicious anaemia. He pulverized or

F ool lis h Questions

BY ANGELO PATRI.
Answering Questions.

MOTHERS are conscientious. They
N know that children learn by ask.
ing questions and having them an
swered intelligently. They try TO live
up to that knowledge by answering
faithfully all the questions asked. I
heard q little child bedevil his mother
with q string of idle questions like
this:
Mother. what are you doing?"
Sewing"
"Why?"
II want to make this pair Of cur.
tains."
"Why?"
"We need them"
"Why do we need them, nother?"
Patiently the mother answered these
idle questions until in desperation she
folded up her work and took him out
for an airing. Maybe they both needed
the airing, but certainly the child did
not need to have such questions an
swered for three-quarters Of an hour.
That is enough to wear out the very
soul of a mother and leave her unfit
for work for days to come. 1t is
enough to make her dislike the sound
of the child's questioning voice.
Real questions ought to be an.
swered. When a child asks for in.
formation he ought to have 1t. But
when he begins series Of questions,
the only object Of which is to secure
his mothers attention, his attention
should be promptly directed to other
things. He ought to be given some.
thing definite to do at once. The ask.
ing of meaningless questions ought
to be discouraged, first, because it
wears out mothers for no good reason.
and second because it teaches the
child to trifie. Trifing is not Q good
habit in any field Of behavior.
Real questions disclose child's
! interests. They tell a mother what
q child is thinking about. A little boy
standing by the window saw an air.
plane pass through the sky. He
watched it fade into the distance and
for a while stood looking after it
thoughtfully. BY and by he asked,
"Was there people in that plane,
mother? I mean other people besides
the driver, like you and me?"
Il don't know. Why?"
Il was wondering if people flied just
for fun or something"
They fly for fun sometimes. but
most of the time for business reasons.
The planes carry mail, and goods, that
must get where they are going in q
hurry. Grandma sent us flowers, you
know, by the plane. Remember how
fresh they were?
IF you get your map I'll show you
where they start from and where they
land, and we can find out what they
carry. You see they are hurry-up
things that travel fast. They are q
great help when people have to hurry.
Remember about the medicine they
took on the plane that time? 1t saved
the sick people. Just spread the map
on the floor and we'll see what the
planes are doing these days"
Listen to the quality Of the ques-
ton before you answer it. Time and
energy put on idle questions are sheer
waste.

When Brides Parents
Are Separated.
nv EMILY POST.

DEAR MRS. POST: My mother and
~ father are legally separated, but
not divorced. Mother is giving me my
wedding in church and father Is to
have the reception at his club. Mother
has promised to 60 to the reception.
Since this situation Is not the usual
one. don't know whether 1t would
be suitable for the invitations to in
clude both their names, and mother
would also like to know whether you
think she is acting very irregularly by
going to fathers reception given
for me.
Answer: If the world at large knows
of their separation, it would be Just as
unsuitable for their names to appear
together on the same wedding form as
1t would be were they divorced. More
over, your fathers invitation would
have to 60 out In an entirely separate
envelope from the invitation sent by
your mother to the ceremony. Or else
and best-if the reception Is small,
you can ask people to that verbally.
On the other hand, IL they are often
seen together and their separation Is
known only to their families, then that
is another story, and invitations 60 In
their joint names to marriage and re-
ception both. If your mother chooses
to 20 to the reception it Is . concern
entirely hers.

Answer: The whole purpose Of car
rying q prayer book Is to have your
marriage service read from it. Ger
tainly white ribbons marking the
place-at which you open it as you give
it to him-are not going to annoy the
clergyman, no matter how many

THE question Of who gets the
best of the bargain in married
life has been q hot contro-
L versial subject ever since
Adam and Eve sat down outside OF
the gates of Paradise and began to
pity themselves.
Husbands have always contended
that wives get all Of the breaks In
marriage because they are support
ed and do not have to go out into
the cold and cruel world and earn the
money with which to feed and clothe
and house q family. Nothing Is more
common than to hear q man say to
his wife that he wishes he had it as
easy as she does and didn't have any
thing to do but o little housework
and taking care of the children.
And nothing makes the woman,
who has worked II hours q day to
her husbands Cooking. scrubbing,
washing, sewing, mending, baby
tending-so furiously angry as to have
her slavery rated by her husband as
a lightsome chore that she performs
when she is satiated with lying on q
couch and reading novel.
On the other hand, wives are equal
" certain that In marriage, as in all
else, this is q mans world in which
men get the best of everything. They
point out that, in the first place, hus-
bands are hard to keep and wives
are difficult to lose, 50 that woman
is about 10 times as much married as
a man Is and has to be on her tip
toes to keep him placated and amused,
while he doesn't even have TO be
pleasant around the house unless he
wants to; that housework Is dull and
monotonous and, worst Of all, carries
no nay envelope with it: that taking
care Of children is job so strenuous
that It makes q wreck Of an able
bodied man In a single Sunday after
noon, and that wives are the only
laborers who have no union hours, no
Sundays or holidays of, and are not
only expected to work for their board
and clothes, but to be humbly CRATE
full to the man who supports" them.
