Seeing America BY Taxi

Seeing America by ldAI
There is no telling what some
people call pleasure. An English
man and his wife recently made a
long distance tour of New Eng
land eastern Canada and the
middle Atlantic states by Amerl-
can taxicab!
But they returned tot England
to recuperate.
The couple hired the taxlcap IN
Wa hington. They couldn't nave
found a city where the mood ana
atmosphere for such a nutty trip
was more pronounced.
In fact, the idea was so ScreWy
that it was at first thought IL
must have originated with Con-
greSS.
The taxi tour of America took
twenty-five days and the taxi fare
was S625. This must have been
a friendly gesture to England.
The meter registers more than
that for a trip home from the
theater.
TaXicab touring has its points.
1t is not as dangerous as trans
continental flying and it is prac-
tically as fast.
1t give; you everything flying
does except the hostess.
You hail a taxi at any corner
and say, Take me all over the
United States. And HURRY
How much time will it take?"
you inquire. To which the taxi
driver probably replies, How much
time have you got? If it's more
than half an hour 1 can do it."
It's the one way you can zee
America without bothering about
red lights, traffic tie-ups, motor
cycle cops or the laws and regu-
lationS.
No obeying Road Closed" "
"One Way Street and "Detour"
signs or anything ell e.
And those SLOW Down. School
Zone" signs don't mean a thing.
You must fly over the school
houses.
The taxi for ;pecdy touring by
all means. If you know of a bet
ter way to cross a river when the
drawbridge is open, name it.
It's A System
See brick and pick it up
Throw it at the nearest cop:
See a brick and let it lay
You'll never get a raise in pay.

. EASY TOKEEP CLEAN

BY NEA Service
 New York--Walls of wood, white or natural furniture, not to mention the use of Q bevy of warm, earthly colors--these are just Q few of the new Spring decoration trends.
 What 1t all boils down to is this. Decorators have at last come to the conclusion that 1t is possible to combine beauty and comfort in home furnishings. So they have done just that, and the result is 6 rare combination that places the home in the spotlight more than ever before.
 If the irnpracticality of ligh, walls and furniture is bothering you there is no need to fear. Just plaii. soap and water or mild cleaning fluids will do the trick. It is easy to keep clean, and 1t is bright and gay. Spring house cleaning is . fine time to do something about those dark and dingy corners.
 The perfect place for wood walls Is 6 library or a den. One hand- some library has furniture all in walnut and blue leather set against walls of pale tany oak. This room also sponsors another new decora- ton note--a color scheme in browns and blues, Scattered around are asi, trays of heavy bubble glass in royal blue.
 Lamps on walnut end tables Gt each side of the sofa are made of blocks of royal blue glass set on walnut bases. The rug is a fine thick longstranded chenille one in brown underlaid with stripes Of slate blue.
 One dining room even goes to far aS to combine all of the unique brainst0rms except the wood walls Contrasts and strong individuality springs from . Mexican mural. Its vibrant colors--rust, green, yellow and blue~-are echoed in the folds of linen draperies which hang straight and full from white lac- quered windows. Walls painted a vivid yellow form an excellent back ground for these colors, and for the stunning furniture of dark polished walnut combined with white leather.
 Bedrooms are q joy to every wo- man who loves pretty furbelows. Lots of fluffy white and pastels in swishy taffeta, and furniture of a pinkish bird's-eye maple, give note of delicacy that is most desirable. And here Is something. Those new Du Barry pink and stained mirrors are very flattering, and should be used over the vanity table. In fact, it's Q good idea to use them throughout the whole house. But be sure that ( blue daylight bulb is used over them in order to gain the desired effect.

Your Children
By OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON

What exactly makes some chil- dren sorry for themselves and others almost impervious to hard luck2
 There is 8 point somewhere in early childhood where 1t starts, maybe in the cradle, perhaps in the first year, or again, not until later.
 Such q child needs all the help we can give him, but not open sympathy and not scolding. It is emotional habit, this crying of his.
 The case of one child comes to mind. This little fellow was un- conscious of "self," almost abso- lutely, until he was well past two. He could fairly knock his brains out by q hard bump, or skin his knees cruelty by fall, then look up and grin and say, T hurt myself" That was all. Tn two minutes 1t was for gotten.
 Tn his third year he began to cry about little things. Not only phy- sical injury, but disappointmentS and things that hurt his feelings.
 Infant UndergOes Change
 This might be laid to age, bee cause in the third or fourth year. the child undergoes sort Of change, and comes out of the chrysalis of babyhood into an individual world of his own. He becomes conscious now of his own place in things, and emotion develops very fast It is the tenderest of all tender ages, this time between the second and fourth birthdays.
 His mother said one day, Bob Is 50 anxious for Ted to be husky boy and a sport that I think he overdoes it. He is deliberately talk ing rough, playing rough, and is in- clined to make fun of Teddy. He says 1t is the only way to make any boy thick-skinned. But I try to stop him, because Terry doesn't under stand. He thinks his father is mean sometimes. And he cries more than he's ever done in his life"
 It may, or may not, be the an- swer. but think 1t was, in Teddy's case.
 The mothers way of oversym- pathizing can increase this unfor- tunate habit. too. Sympathy is all very well, but emotional demon- strations long continued, call a child's attention to many things

 The market is flooded with new shades of cosmetics. If the face powder you have been using doesn't match your skin tones and at the same time make your complexion look alive and glowing, this is a fine time to buy exactly what you need.
 If possible, get several samples of powder, then try each one at home. Otherwise, clean your face and throat before you go to cos- metic counter, and experiment. with various shades there.
 There is c variety of new lips sticks, in shades to harmonize with spring costume colors. one iinpor- tant coslnetician, who insists that powder always should match skin and eye-makeup harinoniZe with eyes, now makes new lipsticks - each of which matches or contrasts sharply with couturier shades.
 For instance, if you are @ light brunette. the cosmetician's chart shows that you need peachbloom powder, or some variation of this; blue-green eyeshadows to bring out the dancing lights in your eyes; two sets of lipstick and rouge - ono which matches your blood tones, the other chosen with Q specific frock in mind. Simple, isn't it2
 If you are thinking of doing any travelling by plane, better consider the new aviation kit. The cover is of lightweight fabric which will stand a lot of banging around. The creams are packed in aluminium jars which weigh very little. Com- pletely equipped with all kinds of beauty preparation, 1t has an extra space for nightgowns, toothbrush and such.
 Also new is . manicure box with nail brush, orangewood pusher and bottle of liquid preparation which softens and dissolves cuticle. This is s handy thing to have around whether you get professional mani- cures or not.

EARLY UP AFTER OPERATION Moscow physician, V. A. Astrak- hanskiy, who recently has com- pleted q study of the vital capacity of patients who have undergone operations, reports his observations in Sovetskaya Khirurgiya.
 What si vital capacity7 It Is the quantity of air one can breathe out after having taken the deepest possible Inspiration. An instrument for measuring the vital capacity is called the spirometer, a kind of gasometer and such an instrument Is commonly used in gyElAnasiums and by physicians making physical examinations of candidates for ap- pointment of police, firemen and the like, as well as in ordinary periodic health tests. Vital capacity is good index to physical fitness. Average vital capacity of adult male is 370O co. and that of adult female 3600 co. "A pint is approxi- rnately 800 cc.)
 Ordinarily 500 co. or about one pint of ai2 flows in and out of the lungs with each quiet breath. This Is called tidal air. Then about three pif1ts of air may be breathed in by the deepest possible inspiration over and above tidal air, and this is called complemental air. Tn addi- ton, about three pints can be breathed out by the most forcible possible expiration in addition to the tidal air of the ordinary quiet expiration. That's all the air there is - available for breathing. Still present In the lungs, bronchial tubes and trachea after the most forcible expiration is 1000 co. two pint) of air, called residual air. This residual air together with the supplemental air constitutes the reserve supply of air in the lungs, approximately five pints.
 Tn 100 patients who had appendi- gator measured vital capacity two citis operations the Soviet investi- days before the operation and daily afterward until ti returned to normal. Likewise in 100 patients who had hernia operations. And likewise in 50 patients who had other than abdominal operations. The patients were men and women, from l8 to 80 years old, and all operations were under local anes- thesia. All patients were divided into two groups. The first group were kept in bed four or five days after operations. The second group eyre allowed to get up in the first or second day after operation.
 The vital capacity of the first group, remaining in bed several days after operation, was more markedly decreased and slower in recovery than was the vital capa- city in the second group, early up after operation.
 Tn the first gaSlp, remaining in bed several days after operation, there were seven instances of post

that would otherwise pass of as matter of course.
 Take Child for Granted
 Tn any crisis, 1t Is human nature to endure much alone, but let the nearest person drop Q tear or give some other sign, and the dam is down.
 Once the child loses cast in his own estimation, he does not want his crying to be mentioned. Some- times he will stop if he gets syfn- pathy, but mostly he will cry hard- CT than ever. He wants It, and he doesn't want 1t, you see.
 The best thing to do B to take him entirely for granted. Don't pay much attention to his out- bursts. This will help him to master control. At this time any crisis that may cause trouble should be avoided. He should have his time fairly well filled with busy interests. The longer he goes without over fiows,' the more chance there is of discouraging the habit. Have fun in the family. It is surprising what few good laughs will do to- ward setting up the courage and self-respect of everything in 1t. Copyright, 1887, NEA Srvice, Inc.)

Rolls and Blood Pressure
 Would it be sll right for me tO try your sOHnerSauIts for my ciFcu- lstl0n? I am 41 years old and have high blood pressure. (Mrs. H. P.),
 Answer = Better ask your physi- clan. Send stamped envelope bear ing your address for Bylaws of the Somersaultauqua.
 Ringing in Ears
 1s It dangerous to take - cold tablets if they cause ringing In the ears? I know that is from the uui. nine, but wondered if it is harm. fnI. ~. A. Fl
 Answer - Hardly enough quinine in such tablets to cause ringing in the ears. More likely that Is due to overdose of the acetanilid, antipy- ril, phenacetin or acetyl- alicyliC acid in the tablets. Sodium salicy- late is another drug which may pro- duce ringing in the cars. I should not advise rnonkeying with any drug that produces such effects.
 Raw Meat
 ! know you are not Q veterinary, but you know nutrition and dare ask whether you think it is advls- able to feed . cat or dog cooked meat or raw meat? 1T. E. MI
 Answer - Raw meat. Cats or dogs fed cooked meat neither thrive nor successfully rear their young. If they get Q reasonable amount of raw meat they thrive and have strong healthy filters.
