In no time you can know enough palmistry to read your palm--and your friends palms, too. And how they love it!
 See the Heart Line running across the top of your palm? If it branches where it starts, much love comes your way. If you've a little horizontal line close to the Heart Line where it ends-youll probably marry early. But a break on the little line implies separation some day.
 Luck? A star on your palm says fortune has her eye on you. Money? A strongly developed third finger promises plenty of it.
 But bewarel Don't contradict 6 lad with 6 very long second finger. He's a 6aturnian and must be ''yessed." As for the girl with wide spaces between her fingers-be cagy, she's much too curious.

Coughs That Last Several Weeks
 May Be Symptom Of Lung Disease

or increased resonance.
 These and other signs indicate to the doctor the nature of the changes in the lung tissue. Next, he listens with his stethoscope be- cause the various sounds made by the air passing into the lung indi- cate whether there is interference with the passing of the air, and reveal, too, the presence of fluid, solid tissue, or other factors.
 The sputum of the patient is ex- amined for germs. If these are found by use of suitable staining methods, the evidence is well nigh unimpeachable. The absence of germs, however, does not exclude the disease because, in the earlier stages of tuberculosis, they may be absent in as many as 35 per cent of cases.
 There also are other tests which are applied in cases in which the diagnosis may be doubtful.
 The hope of successful treatment in tuberculosis depends largely on recognition of the disease at the earliest possible moment. Hence, whenever there is any question of tuberculosis, those concerned should immediately have everything in the way of diagnoStic aid that modern medicine can offer.

(NO. 198) By DIR. MORRIS FISHBEIN

By DIR. MORRIS FISHBEIN Editor, Journal of the American
 Medical Association, and of
 Hygeia, the Health Magazine
 When the tuberculosis germ gets into the body either by direct in- halation or by any of the other methods that have been mentioned, it tends to localize and to set up an infection. This may be 8 sudden, severe infection, or slower and more chronic type. It seems likely that child may be lightly infected with the disease, recover quite promptly, but thereafter be sensitive to new infection with the same or- ganism.
 The germs which establish them selves in the body form lesions, or spots of infection, that are typical of tuberculosis. These areas may become secondarily infected with other organisms. This, of course, changes the general picture of the disease.
 The symptoms by which most people know tuberculosis is the cough, which indicates the lung is infected either by tuberculosis or by some other germ. Any cough that lasts for three or four weeks may represent a disease of the lungs.
 With the cough, frequently, there Is expectoration. There is also, in certain cases, enough destruction of lung tissue that the tuberculosis victim may expectorate some blood And fluid may pour into the walls of the chest-an example of the att tempt of the body to control the infection.
 Because of the way the disease attacks the human body. the person with tuberculosis generally is rather sick, and complains of loss of strength and weight. It does not take an unusual amount of exercise to tire him.
 He may also have slight after noon rise of temperature or fever, and. associated with that, an in- crease in the rate of his pulse. Night sweats are not typical of tu- berculosis, however. and may be caused by many other conditions as well.
 When e physician finds such symptoms, he extends his examina- tion promptly by taking advantage of modern methods of diagnosis.
 Chief among these Is the use of the x-ray. X-ray pictures in many instances will show the extent to which the lung is involved.
 The doctor also will use older methods which have been proved valuable by years Of experience.
 These include Q general exami- nation of the chest to determine mny changes that have taken place in its shape, contour. and move- snent6.
 The doctor puts his hands on the masientls chest to find out whether &arfo ere spasns of the muscles, or E'brationn. az air passes into or out 1I tho lung. fie thumpS the chest 70 find out by the sounds whether ilsfo is dullness. tympanic reSpoiAse'

WOMAN,S REALM
Your Children
By Olive Roberts Barton

Child health depends upon two major benefits, good care and hap pineSs.
 We think of "care" as physical, and in this we are right to a great extent, but an unhappy child can SO easily be sick child that this side of it needs more emphasis than it usually gets.
 There are two types of children, generally speaking, just as there are two kinds of adults, the sensitive and the hardy. In scientific par lance the first is an introvert, the latter an extrovert, Not that names matter, but it helps mother to know that there are patterns" in child nature.
 It is the sensitive child who may not seem so strong physically, when there is no real trouble or illness that the doctor can name.
 UnhappineSs Leads to Il-Health
 An unhappy child will sometimes become wan, pale and tired without any apparent cause, or develop headaches and other pains. Perhaps he won't eat or sleep well, and the doctor says he is merely nervous and needs plenty of quiet and rest.
 The first important move is to diagnose the cause of his unhap- piness. There are his brothers, we say, as healthy as young steers, with capacities never satisfied, yet who have almost the identical surround ings and experiences as the weak ling. Why is John not rosy and strong, when all the others are so well?
 Excluding some possible congen- ital deficiency, most likely it is be- cause John has the makings of un- happiness in himself. He is so self conscious, suffers so keenly over small matters, and exaggerates his failures beyond normal. As feel ings" govern nerves, and nerves are at least three fourths of robust health, he cannot possibly digest well sleep well, or eliminate well when his nerves are half paralyzed from his thoughts.
 Sympathy and humoring are not exactly the answer, because often such tactis will not be of any help. Sympathy in the sense of under standing is different.
 Bolster Self Esteem
 In every way possible this young unfortunate's self-esteem should be bolstered. Watch him eat better when he has won victory, not only over others, but over him. self.
 He should have a variety of hob- bies to keep him interested. Grad- ually he will select one or two but here the parent should be careful that he will not seek to hid his Sen- sitive soul in one love alone. Try to get him interested in several things, WHICH HE CAN DO WE'LL, not the games and duties that defeat him. He must learn to face defeat in good time, too, but as health pro- ject he needs to have his confidence and self-esteem satisfied.
 We must never tell him he is not strong. He should take it for grant, ed that he is very much like other children.
 Nome life should be peaceful, and no one should tease or torment him. School lessons, if a contributory cause to his worry, should in some way be eased, either by reduction or by help. Copyright 1887, NEA Service, Incl

GIO1itying Yourself
By Alicia Hart
MA servIce staR Wrlter

sMy skin is abnOrmally dry" writes young mother. What can I do to prevent lines and wrinkles?"
 First of all, cleanse with soap and water only at night. For morning cleansings and midday ones, use cream or a liquid cleanser, made especially to correct g dry condi- tion. At night, after washing, pat on a mild tonic, let it dry, then apply a rich cream.
 with firm upward and outward strokes. massage the nourishing cream into face and throat. Use deep, kneading and skipping move ments. Rubbing motions are likely to stretch delicate skin. With thumbs and forefingers. pinch along jawbone from center of chin to ears. Repeat eight times. Leave the cream on while you brush your hair and teeth.
 In the morning, cleanse with rather oily lotion and use a liquid instead of cream foundation. Cream rouge will be better than dry war; iety, too, and your powder ought to have enough body to stay on for hours without looking flaky. Even if you have to replenish it oftener, pick a rather oily lipstick. Always keep cream on your face while you are under a hair dryer.
 If you have special eye cream, smooth it around eyes and on eye lids at night, and leave it on while you sleep: Otherwise, use regular night cream. If lids look dry and rough, put . very thin coat of olive oil on them after you have powder ed. Use 8 suntan cream when talk ing sun bath or sitting on the beach.
 If, after meticulous care and nightly creaming, your complexion still seems to be too dry better see your family doctor. It may be that something is wrong with your diet. Try to walk at least a mile every day, and, twice a week, to exercise until you perspire freely.

Lamb may be an old friend, but 1t does get tiresome. Teach it a new line and its dinner conversation will have lot more flavor. Spiced pine apple will do the trick.
 Spiced Pineapple
 One large ripe pineapple, 2 cups brown sugar, 1-2 cup good vinegar, teaspoon whole cloves, 2 sticks cinnamon cut in 3-inch pieces, 1-2 teaspoon curry powder.
 Pare pineapple, cut in slices and core. Gut into wedges. Boil sugar, spices and curry powder with vine- gar for 5 minutes. Then add fresh pineapple wedges and cook until tender. Have immaculate jars hot. Remove pineapple and place in hot pars. Continue to boiled spiced syrup until it gets thick. Then pour over pineapple in jars. Seal at once.
 For roast leg or shoulder of lamb or veal or for cold sliced roast this is brilliant hint to look alive.

 Paris, (UP)-Any Johnson, the English aviator who is spending a few weeks in the United States to procure a plane for the proposed Lindbergh transatlantic air race this summer, sailed with many new Paris clothes.
 When she left Cherbourg on the liner Bremen she wore tailored two-piece suit of chocolate brown leather. The seams of the straight skirt as well as the tailored, fitted jacket were outlined in twin rows of white glove stitching. Her brown felt hat was shaped like 8 poilu's cap and was trimmed with short brown quill. A brown and white silk scarf was knotted at the neck of the jacket.
 From Mainbocher, Miss Johnson ordered grey jersey sports en- semble. The slightly flared skirt is of solid grey worn with a high necked, short-sleeved sweater of navy blue hand knit wool. The three-quarter length top coat is of grey wool finely striped with 8 line of white. The top coat has broad revers and buttons down the front

with fitted line. The waist is nipped in and belted.
 For afternoon wear, Mainbocher made her suit of navy blue and white printed crepe. The pattern is of tiny white chicken tracks on the navy background. The blouse which accompanies the suit is of three different shades of green dotted in white.
 The same house made an eve- ming gown in black marocain crepe. The gown has a low cut decollete back and front and has short bolero jacket for dinner wear. The gown is draped to the left side of the waist where there is silk fringe in pastel shades.
