brary, which takes the space old- fashioned houses wasted on a dine ing room, will serve also for the pur- suit or various arts or crafts which do not require much special furni- ture or equipment. Indeed, families of mature adults may have no need of special studio other than the library.
 It may well be that in stead of a special studio, Odd House will have work shop, say in the basement, or adjoining the garage, fitted up with whatever tools the artisan of the family requires. Some such hobby as carpentry, cabinet making, metal owrking or general repairing is particularly healthful for the sed- entary or "brain" worker, for he or she sorely needs some muscular work or play or exercise to absorb the excess energy released by every-' day emotions. For those who live by their wits diversion that does not involve action, doing something is not recreation, but rather aggrava- ton of the "jitters" they ascribe to nerve strain"
 Capsules
 Can iodin be put up and taken in capsules? If I take it in water it makes me vomit, and still I could do with more pep and would like to take it as you suggest. (Miss A. M) Answer-YeS, or various prepara-- tions of iodin or iodids may be taken in tablet form. A drop of tincture of iodin in a pint of water has lit- tie taste-the whole pint may be taken in two or three drinks through the day. Or a drop of tincture of iodin may be taken in milk or in any fruit juice instead of taking it in water. Or plain or chocolate coated tablets of sodium iodid, one grain, may be taken daily instead of a drop of tincture of iodin.
 Physic Is 1t imperative for patient to take a laxative or enema before un- dergoing a major operation? G. O. Answer-Only in certain circum- stances, when the preparation for operation should be carefully pre- scribed by the physician. AS rule it is better to avoid such interfer- ence at such time.
 Victuals and We
 I'd like to have copies of your booklets entitled Building Vitality" Guide to Right Eating" and Re generation Regimen" I believe these are ten cents each. (H. w. K)
 Answer-The three are now com- bined and revised to date in booklet Victuals and Vite" sent for twenty five cents.
 Muscle TOnuS
 What is the best thing to relieve poor muscle tonus? If exercise is the answer, how do you account for poor muscle tone in muscles used several hours a day with reason- ably long and frequent rest periods? (C. c. O.
 Answer - Faulty nutrition may account for poor muscle tonuS. Es- pecially deficiency in intake of vita mins B. O and D.
 Glasses
 Your position regarding glasses for near -sightedness. Of course, in street, one might cut ones best friend or lose life in contest with auto traffic. But tor reading one can see all right with page held close. (W. R. s.
 Answer-It is not my position. All oculists urge near-sighted per- sons (myopia) to wear suitable glasses for close work in order to conserve vision. Without such glasses the strain of using the eyes for close work tends to increase the trouble.

Credit for the efforts to issue
such q stamp must 60 principally
to Representative Lindsay Carter
Warren Of North Carolina.
Notification Of the proposed
United States commemorative was
received by The Washington
Times from the office Of the
North Carolina Representative.
Ends Mystery"
Thus comes to an end game
Of hide and seek between officials
Of the Post Office Department
and the philatelic press In regard
to this stamp. It is expected that
the Post Office will officially re-
lease further information concern
ing the stamp In the very near
future.
For three weeks, ever since the
rumor became q live one In local
phiIatelic circles and finally con-
firmed that there would be o spe.
cial stamp issued in midsummer.
philatelic writer's and correspond
ents have been staging o guessing
game as to what this stamp
would be.
At first The Washington Times
was led to believe that the Boy
Scouts would be honored with Q
special stamp, especially due to
the fact that the national jambo-
rec would be staged In Washing
ton the last Of June. A host Of
other beliefs were also afforded
the widely circulated rumor con-
corning the mystery stamp"
stretching from Indians to Clark
Gable.
Announcement Soon
With the announcement Of the
Virginia Dare commemorative ex.
pected within q few days, another
mystery Is also expected to be
cleared-and that relative to the
special souvenir sheet for the s.
p. A, convention which viii be
staged at Asheville, N. c., August
1928. It IS, the firm belief that
this new stamp design will grace
It IS expected that the Virginia
