MRS. Bessie HamDurger-a Wlle,'
mother and grandmother, who
claims that her own happy home
life is notorious" lis preeminent'
ly qualified to speak as a Social
Doctor" For IL years she has
served as assistant counsel in the
Domestic Relations Court of New
York City, where, Heaven knows,
there are plenty of domestic fire
works to adjust in the way of rows
and diSsenSionS.
DESERTION FIRST
The lady whose home life Is
''notoriously" happy has one tried
and true panacea for settling do
mestic warfare. The remedy is al
most as hard to find as ambergr1s,
and when found has been avoided
seemingly by the belligerents as
they would avoid the third rail.
Nevertheless, this aide to the Do
mestic Relations Court handles the
dangerous cure-ail unflinchingly-
it's name is Common Sense.
The first cause of desertion has
to do with economic conditions
husbands don't make enough
money to keep the home going.
Rather than look on to see priva-
tionS they're powerleSs to remedy,
with perhaps, the additional ag-
gravation of the wife's complaints,
they quit.
Again, there are philanderers
with no respect for the sacredness
of the marriage contract. They
pursue every skirt as small boys
chase fire engines. Sometimes
their health is too poor for fam
lily responsibility, or they aren't
physically compatible with their
wives.
Sometimes they are smitten by
"dat old dayvil,' wanderlust. The
far horizon, where the pot of gold
is to be found at the foot of the
rainbow, beckons. Some have no
religious training or respect for re-
ligion-and Scoffing before young
children provokes wifely objec-
tions, which sends them off. Some
men have no domestic training,
in other words they aren't "house-
broken"-they belong to the cave
man type, going through a room
and making it look as if cyclone
had struck it.
DISILLUSIONED
Nagging, crowding and the eter.
nal preparation of baby food send
off wandering lads who lack re.
SponSibility.
Consider if it isn't enough for
an overworked woman to prepare
baby food according to formulae,
strain spinach, squeeze beef juice,
without having a husband, who
doesn't have to take part in these
rites, rush off because he's
"peeved" at seeing the makings
all over the place.
But like the cat Of fable, these
husbands come back. They return
when they discover there is no
pot of gold at the foot of the rain
bow; that the skirt they chased
is a gold-digger; that children
grow out of the bottle age-and
when, chiefly, they discover the
little woman puts up with them
better than anyone else.

kind that are used as beach and
play suits, are designed and fash
ioned for comfort as well as
beauty. They must be free from
restriction of long skirts or any
thing that might interfere with
swimming or other activities, so
with the prevailing styles we
must be quite aware Of the i'm
portance of leg beauty.
There are a number of beauty
requisites for perfect legs. They
must be shapely and well-devel-
oped, but never robust and fat.
The skin, too, should be smooth
and just as fine as it is on the
arms and face. We believe the
average girl has well-Shaped legs,
but there are a few who may
have some defects that could be
easily corrected. When the legs
are heavy and there is a ten
dency to large fat areas at the
knees, the whole contour of the
leg is unattractiVe.
HILL CLIMBING
These are really some of the
things that may be corrected. 1t
is impossible to change a large,
bony structure, but all fat forma-
ton should be reduced and mus
cles trained to a desired slender
ness.
The change may be effected by
diet and exercise, and it takes
quite a while to really mold knees
and ankles after they have been
neglected.
Persons who climb hills daily
usually have well-shaped legs. Few
of us, however, have an oppor-
tunity to climb in this way, but
we may use the same muscular
strain in our daily exercises. Run
ming about the house on tip toes
requires a good muscular move
ment. Then walking on the out
side rim of the feet will help to
slim the ankles.

An example of the manner in which small contributions, some of them of one-cent variety, can make a sizable total, is clearly shown by the amount sent into the Red Cross here by local school children. Pupils of nine public grammar schools, of their own free will, have given $142.44 to the present flood relief drive.

Du Pont Contributions Barred.
A last-minute factor, which may or
may not have effect in the Maine
election, was the disclosure a couple of
days ago that several members Of the
Du Pont family had contributed heav-
lily to the Republican campaign fund
in Maine. The Democratic-c controlled
Senatorial Campaign Investigating
Committee sent Investigators into the
State and Immediately revealed the
Du Pont contributions. Brann and
other Democratic leaders have under
taken to make as much capital as
they can of these contributions,
charging that the Republican party
Is dominated by millionaires. The
campaign in Maine has been waged
for weeks and lines have been pretty
sharply drawn, and whether any new
factors will have effect remains to be
seen.
Maine has long been regarded as a
Republican State. In September,
1882, however, 1t set the pace for the
rest Of the country, electing q Demo-
cratic Governor and two out Of three
members Of the House. There had
been . Republican Governor and
three Republicans in the House. Two
years ago the Democrats repeated, re-
electing Gov. Brann and two members
Of the House, although they lost the
senatorial election. II the Maine elec-
ton tomorrow should 60 Democratic,
and the Democrats elect q Governor
and . Senator, the effect on the ma
tional campaign would be tremendous,
beyond . doubt. and the Republicans
would lose heart.
The Republicans expect to carry the
State by $4,000 votes or more. They
hope the plurality will run as high as
$4,000. II it should do so. there would
be considerable reason to believe that
the anti-New Deal sentiment was
swinging definitely. Brann was re-
elected Governor two years ago with
$4,000 plurality.
The primary Tuesday in New
Hampshire will settle the question
whether the veteran George H. Moses
can stage political comeback. He

torial nomination against Gov. H.

Turning to recently disclosed con-

Brann asked Landon If he sanctioned
contributions made by j p. Morgan.
Gov. Landon made the following
statement on July 26, 1885," said
Brann, "'(quote) Racketeers like In
sull. Morgan and Van Sweringen will
be driven out Of finance and industry
by the scorn Of honest people and the
strong determination Of the govern
ment.'"
Brann asked that Landon reaf1rm
the quoted statement and "repudiate

Answering his opponents demand
that he tell whether he was for or
against the New Deal, Brann said:
Stands for Maine New Deal.
"The deal I stand for Is the best

Deal for Maine in the Senate Of the

In review Of the principles for
