I am not going to specify any acc tual age for the following books, bee cauce can take almost any of them, myself, and enjoy each thor oughly. At the same time, some can be read to the child of six, and he will want the story repeated.
 But, of course, there is always the matter of special suitability. In this class, the first one to cheer for, in my estimation, is brand new one written to and for grow ing boys, by Dr. 0. Ward Comp ton. Name '"rhe Boys Book of Strength" (Whittlesey House). I do rot hesitate to recommend that 1t be put into every boys hands. It tells of health. sportsmanship and how to cultivate character and manliness. No, not fiction, but to 6 boy 1t would be fascinat- ing reading. And incidentally, parents will be reading 1t, too.
 Now comes an entirely different work of art" It is new in this country, but I cannot help won- dering why 1t has not reached us sooner, from It's native Australia "The Magic Pudding" by Norman Lindsay (Farrar and Rinehart) |. Boys and girls, mothers and fa- thers, and all the kin will be quot ing the mad merry, tingles of the Society of Pudding Owners, Bun. yip Bluegum Co beaf), Barnacie Bill (naturally, a sailor) and Sam sawnoff (a penguin. It Is going to last, I predict, as Alice" has lasted. The pudding, Albert" is always being eaten. but never grows less. Boys and girls will love its lusty humor.
 Adventure and Mystery
 "5hips's Parrott" by Honore Mor- row and William Swartman (Wil. liam Morrow) is about David, the young Cornish boy, with love and understanding of birds. Full of ad. venture and mystery and the re- ward of courage and kindness. Fix. cellent.

WOMAN,S REALM :
Your Children
By OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON

"Sachiln Bird" by Gertrude Robinson (E. P. Dutton) is 8 beautifully written thriller for boys and girls. Based on authen- tic history, but woven into a fab- ric of adventure and romance: Robin, the hero, and his Indian pal Squando, hold the reader breathless with escapes and feats of prowess.
 "Fresh and Briny, A Story of Water as Friend and Foe" by Frances Rogers and Alice Beard, (HtOkes) makes the experienced reader wonder why such 2 vol- tune was not turned out years ago. As fascinating a revelation as one could find. and Q mine of information. Watch the boys eat, or rather drink" 1t up.
 always hesitate to put books at the end of Q review, because 1t smacks of "also rans." This is so contrary to the truth, that could easily say, "Be sure to read these first. But space prevents justice and car only advise the mar keter to see for her--or himself.
 As Christmas is 50 near, there is the lovely collection of Christ mas Stories, "Merry Christmas to You", by Wilhelmina Harper, (Dutton). Time and trouble, 1t has taken, to assemble the list of world famous Christmas classics. This is its first birthday.
 Some Books for Girls

Also, "Saddle and Bridle," by Fjeril Hess, (Macmillian), ranch life and a girls experience.
 I promised an extra list of books for the in betweens, 50 must mention some favorites both old and new: "Ol' Paul the Mighty Logger by Glen Rounds, tHoli- day). "Tales From a Finnish Tu- pa," by James Bowman and Mar gery Bianco, (Whitman): Mary Poppins". by P. L. Travers, (Rey- naD: "Our Children" by Anatole France (Dodd Meade): Blue Fairy Book. by Andrew Lang. (Longman's) "Tales From Grimm" by Wanda Gag. tCoward). The best way is to go, look and choose for ones self. I have not even dented the list.

The Relief of Hernorrhoids

The Relief of Hemorrhoids
 Dismissing consideration of bleed- ing piles which is strictly a ques- ton for the physician in every in- stance, let us' sec whether anything can be done to alleviate the suffer- ing of one who has an attack of piles.
 First, be sure 1t Is hemorrhoids, and not one of half dozen ail- ments which, without proper exam ination, may readily masquerade as piles. This will bore some readers, who viii regard 1t as the same old tricks--"consult a physician" Nevertheless, I don't get paid for 1t, nor even credit from the rank and file of the profession; on the contrary 1t does seem sometimes as though 6 large part of the medical profession would like to see me wherever that kind of doctor goes when he dies. But, no matter, I'm telling you.
 Piles or hemorrhoids (unfortu- nate that there are more than one name for many common ailments) are ordinarily painless and indeed may give only vague discomfort between attacks, that is, inflam- nation of the varicose or dilated vein wall with or without clotting of blood in the inflammed pile (thrombosis). For such a painful attack" of piles, the sufferer will find these remedial measures bring relief:
 1. Keep off the feet as much as possible, preferably lying down with hips higher than shoulders.
 2. Gut down food intake to half the usual amount.
 3. Take 6 brisk saline cathartic, either a tablespoonful of plain Epson salts tmagnesium sulphate) or 6 bottle of effervescent solution of magnesium citrate.
 4. If the piles are external, vis- ible of prolapsed, apply as warm as bearable congresses kept wet with one third glycerin and two-thirds water, with hot water bag to keep the compress warm. The purpose Of this is to diminish edema and swelling.
 s. When 6 dark clot is visible In the pile the sooner this is extruded through an incision the more quick ly will the sufferer recover. This can be done by any physician under local anesthesia without pain. If the clot or thrombus Is not rec moved, healing will occur eventual ly by gradual absorption or shrink ing and change of the clot into scar tissue incidentally natures own cure for that particular pile--but this B slow, tedious and painful compared with proper surgical treat ment.

PARIS STYLES CHATS

buy schiaparelli clothes this season are Sally Eilers, Marion Davies, Claire Luce and Marlene Dietrich. Lady Charles Cavendish, the former Adele Astaire, also chose clothes from this house. "
 Mime. Rene Clair, wife of the French film producer who made Sous les Toits de Paris" and "The Ghost Goes West" also has bought many clothes here. Almost all of the stage and screen stars are wearing red this year. It varies from the vivid and brilliant shade called Danger Red" to the duller more somber wine shade, called Chateau. reuf du Pape.
 This coituriere made all of the clothes for the new French play, "Le Camelot," which stars Gladys Gould, an American actress in the leading role. The action of the play takes place between 1919 and 1024 and 6chiaparelli has put her tongue in her cheek in designing and bur. lesquing the ridiculous clothes worn in that era. The waistlines come al. most to the hips and the skirts are shortened to the knees.

Nostrums purporting to be pile cures are hunbugs, of course. Many of the pile salves and suppositories contain dangerous and harmful ifl- gradients. I believe the hot glycerin compress above described gives all the relief any safe remedy can give.
 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
 Strain of Heart
 Is Q strained muscle of the heart very serious7 What Is the general treatment? (K. M. R)

 In Mark Antony's oration over the the body of Julius Caesar, he said, "If you have tears, prepare to shed them now"
 Tears are one of the most in- teresting secretions of the human body. Their chief function seems to be to keep the eyes moist so the delicate tissues of which the latter are made are preserved. If the eyes are not constantly kept moist, the tissues dry and are much more easily attacked by bacteria.
 Tears are associated with many and varied types of emotional re- actions. Old people, incidentally, cry much easier than young ones.
 4 story is told of a chemisS who said to his wife, Your tears have no effect on me. realize they are simply salt and water Coca. gionally, however, other materials may appear with the tears and cause 6 good deal of concern.
 Tn 6el, 6 Latin observer re- corded his investigation of & girl of i6 whose tears resembled blood. Not long ago 6 similar case in- volved 6 baby girl in Pennsyl- vania.
 Appearance of blood in tears Frequently is associated with in- fiammation. In other instances, it Is due to suppression of some of the functions which occur in womanhood.
 The tear glands lie in a small niche on the side of the eye that zs toward the nose. From this point pass little tubes which con- yey the tears to the eye.
 There is also a tube which passes from the eye to the nose Whenever tears appear from the syes. the nose begins to run. Whenever the amount of tears is % great as to overflow, the excess fluid goes down through the nasal duct. If this duct becomes stopped ns Q result of inflammation or be- cause of foreign substance ln it.

Tears Are Valuable In Protecting Delicate Tissues Of The Eve

tears will accumulate in the eye and 1t is necessary to have med- ical attention to clear the passage.
 If the blocking dues not have prompt attention, infection may de- velop, causing a discharge of a small amount Of pus at the inner corner of the eye.
 Pressure over the swelling will, of course, expel most of this ma- terial. Tn some cases 1t may, however, be necessary to have Q surgical operation to eliminate blocking of the tears ducts.

 This is the time to replace with richer, sweeter odors the light, floral perfumes you wore last summer and the fresh, out-of doors scents of the football season. The new gardenias, old rose and spicy varieties are much more suitable now than the delicate perfumes which you liked with frothy dresses or sports togs.
 The most novel perfumery at the moment Is put out in limited edi- tons. The manufacturers have made 12 odors, and only 1000 bot. ties of each are to be sold. This way, customer knows for sure that not more than 999 other women throughout the country can get or will be wearing her favorite scent.

Bulgaria. The canteen Is encased in fine wool flannel. The designer of the containers contends that both light and temperature tend to make a perfume lose some of it's strength, SO these new ones are sup- posed to be better than bottles.
 Also, there's new perfume wardrobe" consisting of five dimi- nutive fiacons in . beige and gold box with beige velvet lining.
