Fnemer Remove Pair of RINGS
after Wasp Sting Swells Finger
Girl Fnipts 3 Times as
She Tries to Aid
Her Mother.

A misadventure begun by the sting
of wasp was ended for Mrs. Blanche
Muirhead early today when firemen
of the rescue squad removed her we'd
ding and engagement rings from a
badly swollen finger.
About 10 O'Clock last night Mrs.
Muirhead was preparing to retire in
an upstairs bedroom of her home at
1892 Westover street Sc when a
wasp, which had blundered in through
window, stung her on the third
finger of her left hand.
Mrs. Muirhead soaked the wound
in cold water and went to bed. Shortly
before 2 ale. she was awakened by
a pain in the finger and found it
swollen around the two rings. When
a cold compress failed to reduce the
swelling, Mrs. Mulrhead awoke her
daughter Gloria, Is, who was asleep in
an adjoining room.
Gloria took one look at her mothers
hand and tainted. After Mrs. Muir
head had revived her daughter a rola-
tive, Miss Laura Hepner, awakened in
another room and came to the aid OF
Mrs Muirhead.
The three women. not wishing to
disturb Mr.. Muirhead, who was still
asleep sought unsuccessfully to re-
move the rings from Mrs. Muirheads
finger and then went to the basement
in search of file with which to cut
the bands.

girl was revived a second time, but
another glance at her mothers injured

ored, knocked Gloria out third time.

PURCHASING DOG FOOD
Penny Wise:

"Send me t,0o pounds of beef
ck-tough quality and a
pound of pork Kver for dog
food"
DENNY buys meat to prepare
her own dog food. She buys
cheap nutritious forms of meat.
cooks them with a few vegeta-
bles which her dog likes and
stores it in the refrigerator to be
heated and used as needed.
Tough cuts of meat are high in
nutritive value and Fido doesn't
mind gnawing a little on his
food. Pork liver is very rich in
iron and vitamins. AS dogs are
naturally carniverous, meat
should form the basic part Of
their diet. If Penny buys pre-
pared dog food she reads the
label to make sure that the meat
or meat by-product ingredient
has been examined and in
spected for freedom from filth
and disease by Government sup
erViSorS.

Betty LittIeWit:

"Ple1Se send me q case OF -
dog food. 1t is a balanced diet
in itself and so easy. ! never
feed Fory anything else"
nOGS as a rule like variety in
~ food? Foxy evidently has to
live without it. It is difficult to
guess where Betty gets the idea
that this food is so perfectly nu-
tritionally balanced. She posi-
bly, saw it in a magazine ad,
where a producer may make
most any exaggerated claim he
cares to without being in dan
ger of legal violation. This food
may be made of filthy, unsani-
tary meat or fish scraps adulter-
ated with cereals or fats. Dog
food undiscriminally selected can
scarcely be considered a bal
anced ration. It all depends
upon the age. sex, size and &C.
tivity of the animal. Most dog
foods should be used as supple
mentary foods rather than as
exclusive dietarieS.

and here again Yvonne seems
to be leader. At least when I
have been watching them it
seemed to me that she chose
most of the songs they sang.
They are becoming quite con-
scious of the clothes they wear,
too. The colder weather, Of
course, brought out heavier
clothing. The nurses were dress
ing them to go out to play, and
I went ahead.
Well the nurses put last win
ter's overcoats on them, and
when they came out into the
yard where I was, Cecile came
straight to me, pointed out that
her coat was bit short for her
and said to me in French, This
coat is too small now" Her
sisters joined her in the protest,
and so we had to get them new
coats.
It did my heart good, though,
to see just how much they had
grown since those coats were
put away for them last spring
When you see the children
every day, their growth is SO
gradual that it takes something
like this to bring it home to you

ming UP a raw seam, which he
claims makes that horrible bulge
in sports clothes; he's an artist
when it comes to placing his
pockets, which are always a bit
unusual in shape; and he has a
great flair, not only for new
fabrics which include pique seer
sucker, but also for handling an
old standby like terry cloth in
a new and different manner.
He shows, for instance, a
white terry cloth beach robe
that falls in Grecian fluid folds,
and has a wide, slimmed-in
waistband.
There's also stunning yellow
beach coat with interesting yoke
treatment; midriff control and
Upper front skirt. This model
has enough of what it takes to
get by as an informal dinner
outfit at "stay-at-home" Palm
Beach dinner.
Rubber bathing suits are a
speciality of young Mr.. Brigance;
in fact the Duchess Of Windsor
and several other Sun-loving
ladies at Cannes tried this sum-
mer to place orders for one OF
his white uplift-bra numbers
that's shown in a slightly new
version in this collection.
