really beautiful skin unless there Is

Radishes, onions, celery. RED

this important mineral. II your

BY Olive Roberts Barton

When 1t comes Christmas, am
always glad that live where the
snow flies. My children, like others
of the forth, look to Jack Frost TO
help In the festivities. Yet, those
children of the south, as well as
those of other tropical lands, have
as good time as anyone. Most OF
our own south, depending on loca-
ton, has snow at times, but even
without, they make Christmas
happy, Jolly affair that rivals snow
bound celebrators.
In Spanish America, street fetes
and fiestas are the vogue. II 1t

having their summer, and draws
on your sympathy because they

understand our enthusiasm for

don't feel too sorry. They are
having the time of their lives.
Explaining Origins
Our own children, however,
should know about the customs OF
other land. When they are old
enough to hear that Santa Claus
Is legend, then they will be in
terested in knowing also what
things led up to our own present
emblems and ~ustoms. For in
sta, in mer~y old England,
when lords and vassals were the
fashion, III, holy and mistletoe
were brought in. That was the
sign of open house. Walter Scott
in "Marmion" describes 1t thus:
1.-The Gamsel donned her kirtle
sheen; tn hail was dressed
with holly green;
Forth TO the wood did merry men
go, to gather in the mistletoe:
Then opened wide the baron's
hall, to vassal, tenant, serf and
all;
Power laid his rod of rule aside,
and Ceremony DOTTED his pride"
Thus. holly and mistletoe are
emblems of hospitality and good
Tree and Yule Log
The tree comes from Germany.
Long ago did the Saxons use the
pine tree as their symbol of cele-
bration. The Yule Log of Eng
land Is also associated with the
tree as a sign Of brotherhood and
good cheer. Trees seems to be in
one way or another the very en-
bodiment of Christmas-tide, with
nations Of Saxon roots.
Tell the children the various
names of Santa Claus in other
lands. In Germany he is "Wein-
achtsman"; in France, Papa
Noel" or "Pere NOEL, in England
he Is Father Christmas; in Hol-
land "Julemanden", and various
ly Saint Nicholas" and Kris
Kringle"-the last a name we de-
rived from the German for Christ

Do Not Temporize With Infected
Ear; Results May Be Serious

spread of the infectious material
into the tissues mentioned.
Whenever diagnosis and proper
treatment OF an infected ear are
delayed, the results may be ex-
tremely serious.
First symptom Of an ear infec-
ton is pain. In some cases, In fact,
pain with a slight rise In tempera-
ture is the only symptom. AS I al
ready have pointed out, pains in
the ear occur also because Of boils
in the car canal. Pains sometimes
develop, too, when there Is an UNI
erupted wisdom tooth, inflammation
Of the jaw joints, swelling Of the
glands as result of an infected
tonsil, or swelling in the sinuses in
the cheeks and behind the nose.
Among the agonizing pains that
afflict mankind, earache ranks next
to toothache In frequency and prob
ably next to jumping toothache In
painfulness.
The average man can guess at
the cause of a headache or stom-
achache, but he will have trouble
trying to divine the cause Of an
earache.
There was a time when any good
toilet kit contained an earspoon.
This implement, however, lost caste
long before the toothpick. A good
rule to follow Is: Never put into
your ear anything smaller than
your elbow. This advice is for the
public. 1t dose not apply to doctors,
for they have suitable instruments
and know how to use them In To-
eating and relieving infection.

THE BATTLE WITH PNEUMONIA
Nearly half Of all cases Of lobar
pneumonia are due to pneumococci
Of two types. so-called Type and
Type II. These types are rarely
found apart from the disease. 80
that healthy carriers are few. In the
best hospitals today every pneu.
monia patient has an individual
room: nurses and doctors attending
the patient wear gowns and masks;
dishes and other articles coming
from the room are sterilized by
boiling; all secretions from the nose
and throat Of the patient are dis
infected--in sort the disease "a dealt
with rs diphtheria or scarlet fever
Is. Such prophylactic measures are
probably more effective In reducing
the number Of cases Of pneumonia

A specific serum for treatment Of

People Judge You BY Your
Table Manners

Jim won't be seen again with Ber-
tina, that's sure. It's safe bet
that any girl who talks with her
mouth full has other embarrassing
manners, too.
If she can't even eat hot dog
properly, she might crumble crack
ers in her soup. Or prop her sill
verware against the edge Of her
plate when she's done instead OF
laying it neatly across. Or grasp
her water goblet around the top
rather than by stem and lower part
Of bowl.
Too bad she ruined this promis-
ing friendship just by eating her
hot dog incorrectly. Maybe you,
too, are misjudged for small eti-
quette errors. Brush up with the
help of our 32-page booklet. Tells
how to eat. what implements to
use, what to say and do wherever
you are-at home parties, restaur-
