Whooping Cough, Once Regarded
 Lightly, Is Dangerous Ailment

planation seems to have something to do with the construction of the breathing tract i'll girls being dif- ferent from that in boys.
 Whooping cough is caused by a germ. As to which germ it is, however, not all authorities are agreed. Most of them believe that germ which was first described in 1906, and which looks little like the influenza germ, is the one re- sponsible.
 This germ is carried in nose and throat secretions and may be spread not only by direct coughing, sneez- ing and splitting, but also, of course, by hand-shaking and in materials which have been used by a patient.
 The disease is most easily trans mitted when the victims nose is running and his coughing is fre- quent. It gradually becomes less infectious as the condition goes on. At test has been developed in which the child coughs on a plate containing a substance on which the germs grow easily. Tn Denmark it is customary to permit child to go back to school after the. fourth week of his illness if germs fail to grow on this plate when the test is made. Like chickenpox, whooping cough seems almost universal and records show that 73 per cent of groWnups have had 1t.

Can Dream Signs Warn You
 of Trouble?

Do you worry about vivid dream of misfortune, fear it's sign of trouble for you?
 But laugh when you dream fool ishly about an ink-spot, see no meaning in 1t?
 Forget your sensible dream; dream events rarely repeat themselves in life. A truer signs in your silly dream. That inkspot is one of the symbols your unconscious mind uses to warn you when all's not well. To dream of it means you're suffering from fear of embarrassment. Your unconscious says: Face the facts solve your problem.
 Understand the symbols in your dreams, as modern psychologists in- terpret them. Dream music hints a threat to your pride, snake that you're not happy ill your affections a glaring sun worry about your father.
 Our 32-page booklet by famous psychologist tells how to read dream symbols, to understand yourself, get clues to problems.

 In the dining room of one such home, the table and chairs were placed in the center near the wall: then, on either side and touching the wall, was tall potted plant that almost reached the ceiling. Loung- ing or reading furniture and gadgets in the living room were correctly and conveniently used near the glass side.
 Also worthy of consideration for remodelling the home Is the new unit kitchen with standardized, pre- fabricated and interchangeable units which will it any kitchen plan.
 The unit kitchen may be adapted to one-wall, L-shaped or U-shaped Kitchens, and it is extremely flexible so that as many sections as desired may be ordered to fit any space.

Each section has four divisions--top storage cabinets. lighting strips or nolding, back splash wall panel and base units of drawers or appliances. Other cabinet sections also may be added where desired.
 The keynote of the unit kitchen is standardization. Each section either a base cabinet section or an appliance section.-is 24 inches wide, The maximum height of a complete section is 88 3 inches. Work sur- faces are all one height, and the top storage cabinets are all one size. The wall panels, which are IS inches high, are made to finish the wal area between the back splash and the storage cabinets.

 "If a costume color you have al- ways considered most becomingly suddenly isn't fiattering at all, the chances are ten to one that your skin and makeup are all wrong says Margot Grahame, beautiful young English actress now in Holly wood.
 You may have just as nice a complexion as you had a few months ago, but cosmetics you wore with dark winter clothes aren't right with gay prints and lighter, brighter monotones. Lovely as winter make up was, you'll be amazed at the way your appearance improves when you discard it and go in for warmer shades of rouge, powder and lip- stick"
 Miss Grahame advises everyone to give her face and throat a few re- conditioning treatments before pick ing new cosmetics. She thinks, and rightly, that winter weather takes a CGKLhlIl VUk1 OS J&AC &VCAuSG 01&AAs SO spring pick-me-up routines are all important.
 "If possible. invest in a series oi facials to soften the skin and refine the pores" the attractive actress urges. With cream and gentle mas sage, smooth away fine lines and wrinkles. While you're about it, pre- pare for a new permanent by brush- ing hair more regularly, using tonic on scalp now and then"
 Miss Grahame's own complexion is creamy white and rose, like Eng fish skins you read about. She uses lighter night cream at this time of year. but. regardless of the season, sine always uses 8 powder base.
 At night, she removes makeup with cleansing cream, then washes with soap and water. Nourishing cream comes next. In the morning she cleans with light cream, fin- ishing with skin tonic.

 New York.-1n the years to come you're likely to hear a lot about health walls" Which is why you'd better get acquainted with what they are right now. First thing you know the architect you consult about re- modelling your home will be suggest ing that you ought to put "health walls" in 1t.
 Technically, they are known as translucent masonry. In other words, walls made of glass blocks. And they arc touted as relentless enemies of dust, din and darkness because they not only take the place of windows (entrances for dust as well as lighO but let in a maximum of light while affording privacy and arc practically soundproof.
 They've already found extensive adoption by interior decorators, be- ing used in living rooms, sunporch- es, dining hooks, at the heads of stairways and in the kitchen. And great boon--they admit adequate light to bathrooms without sacrifice ing privacy.

 Statistics indicate that diabetes, ike cardjo . vascular degeneration heart artery wearing out is steadily increasing in frequency and as cause of death. Still 1t is possible that the figures lie and the apparent increase In the proportion of the population having diabetes and the proportion of deaths due to diabetes is explained by more accurate diagnosis, and the greater | proportion of people who have medical care nowadays. Certainly many individuals who had diabetes thirty, forty, fifty years ago never learned what ailed them. Just as certainly many who died directly or indirectly from diabetes were pronounced victims of something else by doctors who had never at- tended them except as formality in the final illness.
 In fact persons subject to dia- betes are more likely to succumh finally to some complication, such as coronary occlusion, cerebral hemorrhage (apoplexy), gangrene infection (septicemia, blood poison- ing), than to diabetes itself. Be- fore insulin, more than half the dcat.is from diabetes were due to diabetic coma; today only one out of twenty diabetics dies from coma.
 Of what concern is this to the reader who hasn't diabetes and does not expect to have it? Well an excellent authority (Joslin) conservatively estimates that 2,5OO,- GOO persons in the United States have or will have diabetes.
 I'm no authority. but just from proving around and having in- finite leisure to ponder these ques- tions I estimate that besides the true diabetics there are at least 100000 more potential diabetica in circulation, and I hope this talk may interest million or more of them.
 Potential Diabctics (PDs) arc distinguished from True Diabevcs (TDs) by real authorities thus: A true diabetic has Oi4 per cent or more sugar in his blood fasting and OFT per cent or more after meal. with sugar in urine plainly related to diet. A potential diahetic has sugar in the urine after a meal, especially q meal including a good deal of carbohydrate f00df starch or sugar. but has less than O.i4 per cent of sugar tn his blood fast- Ing. and less than OFT per cent after q meal,
 A normal person has between O.08 and OH per cent of sugar n hts blood fasting and lesa than 0.ld per cent in the blood with none iil urine after fall meal.
