 I tumbled to the top of Lon don bus last night, not realizing that one hand wouldn't do. The conductor, or guard, or whatever you call him, came up for fares, Ca penny by the way-two cents) and said most kindly, You have to get used to it, Madam.

 So are the walters and the maids, and all the sisters and the cousins and the aunts. Here they don't care what you wear, and don't care what you do, but they do care if you are uncomportable. And I know that when I go out a-seeing, Westmin- ster Abbey, and the Tower, and Whitechapel, and so on, they won't be curious because I'm curious, and won't think me a bother because I ask questions. No, I've not gone Anglophile, but am merely trying to revamp my own psychology about some things in life.
 The children will have to go to- day, I fear. No lesson.

and affection. Not today, though.
 Woman, with her usual kindness, has made life and love as easy as she could for man. She gives him of her time. her love, her interest, cooks steaks for him on her grill or chooses the draperies for his apartment, and asks nothing. Wo- men are their own worst enemies. With the united SiSterhood present. ing a helpful front, why should a man assume responsibilities?
 There is a play on Broadway, Spring Dance" in which college girl says: After all, men are the second smartest sex there is." May be she rated them one too low!
 Lonely Road Leads to Happiness
 Women, having liberated them selves, too often have marked down their own value, They might De lonelier during their younger years, if they raised the standards of their demands, but in the long run they would come into their natural heritage.
 It is good for a woman to become acquainted with many men before she marries, just as 1t is good tor a man to have had his interest piqued by many women. However, there must come 8 time when she puts herself first. A progression of friendly attentions from men is nice when you are twenty but even that is likely to cease for the average woman after a couple of decades. To women today, then, comes the challenge of mingling with men, giving out sympathy and interest and warmth, but withholding a certain part of 1t in order to induce man to give a little time to the subject of matrimony. She must provide him with just enough conl- fort to let him see what he is miss Ing. Her grandmother preserved mystery at the expense of comrade- ship. Her mother reversed the pro- cedure. It is up to the girls of today to blend the two and give the proper doses.

 lures, airplanes, automobiles, last trains, radio-every invention has added to the speed of living.
 Woman'S demand for the security of marriage, coupled with her equal insistence on the freedom of an economic life, has created 8 situa- ton at odds with itself. She must not go back to her home, on any mental journeyings, during those hours for which she is working for an employer. Nor must she skip back to the office when the whistles blow and she has duties of home making to perform.
 Wants to Eat Cake and Have It
 Woman wants to go everywhere, do everything-but she wants man to assert his claivalry and protect her from her discomfortS. This is difficult for a man, any man, to do. WomaA was sitting nicely on her pedestal when she jumped down. It was lonely up there. She is having a much better time, becoming a warmer, more sincere person, since she moves in the human maelstrom. However, the ability to retain that certain something wherein lies her charm for men is endangered.
 How shall she train her daughters, then? How shall she tell them to proceed in a world where every- thing is tipping over?
 Take that matter of marriage. In the days when woman lived in secluded life, man had to marry in order to receive his full measure of feminine companionship, interest

Gl0rifwng Yourself
By Alicia Hart

The throat is the first telltale of age. Unless you treat it as care fully as you do your face, it is al- usost certain to get wrinkled and crepe-y long before you have even one line under eyes or around mouth.
 Your neck must be cleaned, creamed, and patted with cold to- mic or ice water every night. Scrub it thoroughly with rough wash cloth or complexion brush, pat on night cream, allowing it to remain at least ten minutes. Remove the cream and finish with ice water. Tn the morning, cleanse throat as well as face, with cream, remove with a wash cloth that has been dipped in very hot water and wrung as dry as possible. Then apply makeup.
 It really is a mistake to cover your face, from the chin up, with good foundation and fine powder and forget all about your throat. It should receive bit of the foun- dation and the same amount of powder, put on in the same fash- ion.
 If, in spite of proper cleansings and nightly fabrication, your throat looks yellowish or is covered with diminutive, goose-flesh-like bumps, you probably should remove the dry and scally skin that covers the sur face of it. Try this treatment.
 Cleanse with light oily cream, remove with tissues, but don't wipe away all of the cream. Now dip your fingers in plain lemon juice and pat it on right over the thin coat of oil. Massage lightly with rotary motions until you feel tiny rolls of skin under the fingertips. Keep on applying lemon juice and rubbing around and around until no more skin seems to peel of. Wipe again with cleansing tissues, put on a bit of night cream and go to bed.
 NEXT: The need for cosmetics.

 Among sinuses to which headache may be traced are the maXillary sinuses. These are in the cheeks above the upper row of teeth. An infection here is more likely to cause pain above the eye than in the sinus itself, although pain is also felt frequently in the upper jaw.
 There are other sinuses in the skull, back of tho nose. Pains from infections in these may be felt in the back of the head and sone- times in the ear, on the side in- volved.
 Another type of headache results from poisoning by alcohol, tobacco, ether, lead or other materials. A careful investigation of the patients condition may show that he is re- gularly absorbing some of these poisons into his body. Prevention of exposure to such poisons will cure the headaches.
 In certain cases, although not so frequently as was formerly thought to be the case, headaches are qsso- ciated with eyestrain or with other disturbances of the eye. Suitable examination by specialist In dis eases of the eye will show whether the patient requires glasses, and VIII indicate also whether there are changes in the blood vessels which enter the eye. A famous British specialist in diseases of the eye found that 24O to 1000 people who came to him TOT examination of the eyes compialneo of headaches. Usually a headache due to eye disturbances is just behind the eyes. In rare cases 1t is in back or the head. Infrequently it may be at the side of the head or at the top' Headaches from over-use or the eyes usually occur late in the after~ noon or at the end of the days work. Occasionally, however, these appear early in the morning because of overwork on the previous day. There also are early morning headaches due to dissipation on the previous night. A person with that kind of headache always knows the cause of his trouble. Another form of headache IS that caused by motion pictures. This tyne was more freuuent in the early days of the movies than 1t is now. Elimination of fiickering, reduction of screen size, and modern types Of illumination in motion picture houses have been helpful. In the old days there were fre- quent. sudden changes from light to darkness. The same effect was

 Try Ann's stunt. She's predict ing who Ted's wife will be-by ma thematical calculation.

 Parathyroid injections may be used along with any othe treatment and in medical hands are perfectly safe.
 If I had chronic diabling arthri- tis I'd want treatment along these lines: 1. Sunbaths or ultraviolet lamp treatment. 3. Iodin or very small doses of thyroid. 3. From 200,- 900 to 500,000 units of vitamin D daily. 4. A diet including plenty of calcium (that is, milk, cheese, eggs, peas, beans, greens, carrots, tur- nips, peanuts and nuts. 5. A daily shot of parathyroid hormone. 6. Three ounces of wheat germ (about 1000 units of vitamin B daily, and perhaps a dash of dried yeast with 1t. 2. Diathermy. 8. A comfortably dry climate. g.

DUCTLESS GLANDS AND
 ARTHRITIS

DUCTLESS GLANDS AND
 ARTHRITIS
 Every school child and adult not under medical care should have a suitable iodin ration, in my opinion. This is particularly important where chronic arthritis exists, for the oxidation process (metabolism) is nearly always slow in arthritis.
 Many physicians prescribe small doses of thyroid hormone for the purpose of improving the poor metabolism in chronic arthritis. Small doses over a long period of time seem to be more beneficial than larger doses for a short course.
 As already pointed out, it has been found that diathermy in care fully controlled doses exerts COZ rective influence upon the thyroid function in cases of hypothyroidism and the judicious application o1 diathermy to the gland is a valuable aid in the treatment of chronic arthritiA (Diathermy to the pan- creas prolongs the effect of inSulini and probably has a similar effect on the internal secretions of othel ductless glands. Patients should be. ware of unqualified headers who at. tempt to give such treatment, fol little too much may do great harm by producing acute hyperthyroid- ismD In certain cases chronic arthri- tis is complicated by pituitary gland dysfunction or by ovarian dysfunction and the endocrine dis turbance must be properly treated h-fore any amelioration in the arthritis can be expected.

Your Children
By OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON

London: Me, I'm regular Mary Jane Friendly. Maybe that's why never can get over the feeling, when q visit strange places, that the people are just like us. keep say ing 1t over and over, "Why, they ride bicycles, wheel baby buggies, drive cars just as rapidly, eat to- xnatoes and beans, wear the same clothes and do the same jobs that we do."
 Il Smehow after all the war talk, I had an idea that other nations had three eyes or six legs or walked on their hands. Heavens and earth! People are people everywhere. Why should they hate each other so?
 There is one thing they beat us at over here in England. And that .zvag minding their own personal busi- Hness. And letting you mind yours.
 Personal Foibles Respected
 Of course, was only in France slnne day, and intend to go back. { And at this writing have been in England only one day as yet. But s4t1 both places I have been utterly charmed at the respect paid to in- xsdividuality. If I chose to go out shopping in a pink satin dress and 1shing boots, no one would stare spr make me feel uncomfortable.
 Last night the London streets were damned. Such a town for people to go places I never have seen. And the variety of dressing for both men and women would have startled the lady at home who puts on . print and goes down town to find everyone else in suits or evening clothes, as the case may be. She is absolutely miserable be- eause she is different" from every hody else. What pity.
 TO be sure there are restaurants and hotels where evening dress IS | requested, but now you know where you are. In any other case your wuess is as good as any. And no- body thinks you just out of the psychopathic ward if you wear . straw hat, as I did, instead of the ubiquitous felt. Nobody cared what
