DON'T MAKE ME LAUGH

Mir. Blank reports he has bene- fitted much from belly breathing for inability to get to sleep at night It seems to bring relief to the sen- sation of gas or fullness and when Shat goes sleep soon follows. He now finds belly breathing quicker and more effective than getting up for Q dose of soda.
 Well, even getting up for a dose of chalk-five or ten grains of cal cium carbonate-Would be better than taking soda, for the relief of "gas" or "acidity" or "sour stom- ach" or heartburn.
 But the main purpose of MT Blanks letter is to give his exper- fences with cracked lips.
 He is A years old and for years has suffered with cracked lir through most of the winter, and sometimes also in summer from toe much exposure to sun.
 A long time ago he read in this column the suggestion to apply fex- ible collodion to the cracked lip He distinctly recalls we said f1exi- ble, and the defense comedies that is correct. That summer in the ter rife heat our correspondent had a badly cracked lip. The druggist had only plain collodion, which MT Blank used, and with the most sat- 1sfactory result. The following win ter he had to resort to collodion again, but it required only two ap- plications to get the crack healed this time.
 Another winter the old trouble returned, and this time the drug gist had flexible collodion. MT. Blank used it, but found it difficult tc keep on the lip and obtained nc relief from it. He then toured 8 string of drugstores until at last he found one that had the old blair collodion. This readily stuck wher applied to the crack, sealed it over and soon brought about healing.
 This past winter the lip was moi cracked at all, though once ol twice he had what seemed to bt the beginning of herpetic blister or "cold sore" and immediately ap- piled a protective coating of the plain collodion, which evidently prevented development of the trouble.
 The essential purpose of the col lodion treatment of herpes of the lip or cracked lip is to splint the lip, prevent constant movement ot the edges, keep 1t as nearly as pos- sible at rest, protect it. That being so, plain collodion is preferable for the purpose. Flexible collodion is the same as plain collodion ex- cept that some oil is added. Plain collodion is pyroxylin Soluble gun cottom dissolved in alcohol and ether: flexible collodion is plain collodion containing also some camphor and some castor oil.
 In applying plain collodion to a split or cracked lip 1t is necessary that the lip be perfectly free from any oil or salve which may have been applied, perfectly dry. ane the edges of the Assure or crack should be carefully held together between thumb and forefinger while the collodion is drying. AS soon a; the first dressing comes loose. re- move It and apply a fresh one.

 The girl who is determined to look cool and be pretty comfortable most of the time in spite of sum- mer's hot weather, takes a luke- warm bath every night before go- ing to bed (no matter how late 1t is), shower with the water at body temperature every morning and, during the day, as many me- dium cool showers as she can man. age.
 Furthermore, unless it's very late, she dawdles over her evening tub, using bath, nail and complex ion brushes and trying to relax com- pletely so that sleep will come quick ly, heat or no. She puts bath crys- tals or oil of a cooling, refreshing scent, in the water. Occasionally, she may pour in few dashes of her favorite cologne instead of an oil or handful of crystals. In either case, she rubs on quantities of cologne after the bath.
 You know, of course, that regular use of good hand brush will soft en, even wear away, callouses that developed on hands or fingers as a result of not wearing gloves while playing golf or driving car. If you do not have one of the new foot brushes, scrub your feet with a bath brush, thereby diScouragirg callouses there, too, and keeping heels smooth.
 If your skin is dry and sensitive, pour few drops of body lotion or a bit of special shower oil on the wash cloth before your morning shower. And pat on small amount of body lotion or just plain hand lotion afterward. Also, remember to wear suntan oil on the beach even after all danger of burning is past. And if you cannot bear to sleep with night cream on your face, figure out way to use it sometime during the day.
 Make your bathroom as cool look ing as possible. For instance, you might substitute a washable, white rug for the richly colored one you liked last winter, pastel or white antly colored ones, an unpainted towels for the wine and flamboy- wicker, white or pale gray clothes hamper for the bright one that matched the winter rug. P. S.: h. cidentally. who ever started the idea of keeping thick, practically un- breakable glasses in the bathroom? Now is the time for a change. Let's have nice, cool looking, ever so thin glasses in the bathroom this sum- mer. Several varieties of thin ones cost even less than those thick types.

to be content to stick close to their families?
 It seems as though there is fear behind their content. Fear of a world which they don't feel com- petent to meet. Home looks good because home is security.
 Of course the business world isn't swinging its doors wide for the young person looking for job. No one is being offered security. No one can be sure or even have much hope that making his way in the world isn't going to be hard row to hoe.
 But other generations have faced hard times-have known that start ing new homes is thing to fight for, not privilege handed out as a birthright.
 And those other generations faced the knowledge as challenge. They married when they were young and started out for themselves. You can't imagine that only a trif1ing per cent of the young folks in grandmother's day were anxious to be rid of home ties and eager to start homes of their own.
 Young people today hear too much talk about the raw deal they have been given. They are encouraged to think that the cards are stacked against them.
 It is beginning to look as though the fearless younger generation" hasn't the real courage of Grandma and Grandpa, who started out with nothing-and called the hard row adventure.
 And the sad thing is-their fear is being fed to them as sympathy and understanding.

Modern Menus
By Mrs. GaynOr Maddox NEA Service Staff Writer

Kitchen slavery on Sunday is out of date. Huge meals that keep the women of the house in the hot kit chen all morning while the men idle about don't make much sense in the American picture of equality.
 Try Sunday dinner like this one, and you'll approve of the idea that Sunday should be a day of rest and companionship for all the family. Begin with clear, fresh-vegetable soup. Pile as many greens and veget- ables as you can get into a large pot. Sprinkle with salt, add just enough water to moisten and simmer. Strain the refreshing liquor and serve very hot with strips of oven-dried toast.
 The dessert of old-fashioned strawberry shortcake calls for hot baking powder biscuits. These bake in only about 12 minutes. Run them into the oven during the last 10 minutes of the casserole's cooking. Serve some with dinner. Keep the others warm for the dessert. Split, butter and fill with fresh strawber- ries, cut in half and slightly sugared. oClNC WlCll l1tolltly WllAPpCo SAScAAA'
 For the main dish, use this 3-in-1 combination of meat potatoes and vegetables. It takes only one hour to cook and greatly reduces Sunday drudgery without reducing the good eating men except on Sunday.

INJUNCTION WRIT IS HELD UNNECESSARY
Supreme Court Decision Upholds Verdict of Plain=
 tiff in HousatOniC Case

Judge Miles F. McNiff's decision for the plaintiff in the suit Of the Connecticut Light & Power company against Elizabeth Fleetwood is partially upset in a supreme court opinion issued today by Judge Newell M. Jennings.
 The decision for the plaintiff is upheld, but error is found in the judgment of Judge McNiff in grant, ing an injunction restraining the defendant from trespass on the property which was the basis of the litigation.
 The suit involved property .bor- dering the Housatonic river, title to which was claimed by plaintiff and defendant. The Connecticut Light & Power company brought the suit to the court of common pleas where it was found to be in title.
 The error was found only in the granting of the injunction. Judge Jennings says that, "As 8 general rule an injunction will not be grant, ed to prevent a threatened tres pass. But where there is something particular in the case, so as to bring the injury under the head of quiet ing possession, or so as to make out a case of irreparable mischief, or where the value of the inheritance is put in jeopardy, an injunction may be awarded"
 "The facts found do not disclose any of the conditions indicted, but, on the contrary, lead irresistably to the conclusion that the settlement of the title will effectively dispose of the dispute between the parties. The prayer for an injunction should not have been granted"
