BE ARTISTIC WITH FLOWERS

If you have flair for flower ar engagement, when gardens are in their prime is the time to try to achieve the unusual. Have an as sortment of flower holders for shal- low bowls handy. Select carefully vases and bowls which will har- moniZe with the room you wish to decorate as well as the blossoms you use. A few blooms with buds and leaves, gracefully arranged, will give a more reStful effect than a novercrowded vase of miscellan- eous flowers. If your bouquet ap- pears topheavy, cut the stems short CT or use taller vase; if your bouquet looks as if it were going to sink into the bowl any minute use bowl more shallow or cut flowers with langer stems. Try to achieve proportion and balance between your containcr and bouquet. Gen. orally speaking, you will like un- decorated containers best-unglazed pottery, clear crystal, furnished metal.

there's a lot of time for play. Jackie will love, it they are sure and besides haven't you complained that what to do with himself? It's high time he had more to do than trundle his wheel up and down the street. And they reassure you, he will have friends and everything, your Jackie will
 But you don't acknowledge the truth to these kindly souls who talk to you. What do they know about your baby? Jack is just q helpless little baby after all. Moth ing they can say will change this fact But more terrible than this new journey all alone into hard world, is the tug at your heart.
 New World for Child
 Never again will this child look to you for everything. He will have interests entirely of his own for the first time in his life experiences that do not include you. Victories that you cannot share, failures you cannot comfort, small rcprimands you cannot defend.
 l exaggerate a little, of course, for modern mothers are practical and wise. They don't go in for emotional orgies or take their knitting to school for the first week and let Billie or Molly know that mother is still near. Yet almost always there is he old heartache that comes with the first separation, and always will And you are right, mother. IL is a dividing of worlds from now on. You won't be losing him, exactly, | but Jackie will sprout wings of free- dom and independence that go into | the makings of 6 citizen. And you can't follow.
 Don't let 1t get you down. Both of you will be happier after the first day or two. Don't make an issue of nine o'clock Tuesday or think of 1t as a barrier. Up to now, Jackie has been playing B to your A. Now he is going to reverse 1t little and in his school world you will have to be B. He will be A. He will be John Jones, Esquire, student, play-felloW, CluDHldIl anu JidVCIcI. lib Iji iiiiCi will supplant the bedtime story, or at least supplement 1t. He will be | fellow of affairs. The man has a dog" will be sWeeter music to him than Jack, the Giant Killer" once he gets the hang of the message on the page and then can read aloud those words.
 There should be no emotional to-do about the big day to come. It should be a matter of course event. Put on his best suit at the zero hour, brush his hair, and scrub his nails. Kiss him goodbye as he starts off, Then go and make the beds and sing. He will come home hungry. He will take care of his i brain. He wants you to love him and fill in where chap needs q friend Very likely he's going to like you better than eyer.

1 tiful, graceful throat, and shoulders that are smooth, white, perfectly rounded. If you intend to have a strapless dance dress, by all means begin now to improve the texture of your skin on neck and shoulders, fill out holloWs and learn to carry your head like a queen.
 Between now and the time the water gets too cold for comfort, do all the swimming you possibly can. And although you may be pretty proud of your side and crawl strokes, use the breast stroke a great deal. It strengthns the pectoral muscles which support the breasts and will do much to fill out the hollow spots along your collar bone. If you do not have access to lake, ocean or swimming pool, do the breast stroke sctting-up exercise.
 Start batting on night cream from chest and shoulders up over throat and back of the neck to hairline. If you can see bathing suit strap marks on your shoulders, either drop the straps a trifle and let the white marks get brown, too, too, or else do complete bleaching job. An even coat of tan is lovely, especially if ones strapless gown is white, but an uneven coat just isn't pretty.
 Scrub elbows twice a day, using a little brush and plenty of warm soap suds. If the skin on your throat seems rough or slightly sallow, cleanse it regularly with com pleXion brush.
 Naturally, with a strapless dress, shoulders and arms must be made up as beautifully as face and throat. Use foundation lotion, then press quantities of powder against your skin. Let it set for second or two before Whisking off excess If elbows are couple of shades darker than your arms, fresh lemon juice will bleach them to a matching tone.

to man. Farmers, veterinarians, slaughter house workers and others who handle carcasses or the living animals are most likely to contract undulant fever. The disease is least prevalent among the group of peo- pie who are the largest consumers of milk-infants and children. Prob ably most of the milk consumed in the United States is not pasteurized. What we don't know about undulant fever and its cause will make book or two decade hence.
 The very name 'undulant" fever doesn't mean much-it purports to describe the characteristic remis- sions that occur in some cases-that is, fever continues for days or weeks. then ceases for days or weeks, later another period of fever. This is by no means the course of the illness in all cases. Often there is no defi- mite remission, just a prolonged low fever for months.
 Undulant fever has been mistaken for influenza, for typhoid fever for malaria, for rheumatism, for tuber- culosis. Suspicion may be aroused if such illness drifts on and on instead of running the more or less limited course it should run. For the diag- nosis of undulant fever (brucellosis) there are available blood tests, skin tests, and most specific bacterio- logical blood culture.
 Patient with mild long drawn out undulant fever has a great variety of aches and pains although he may look well enough. Unfortunately this has brought upon some victims the stigma of "neurasthenia." As have ventured to say here before, a diag- nosis of "neurasthenia' is quack's dodge anyway.

UNDULANT FEVER IN ANIMALS
 AMI MEN

 AND MEN
 Many British soldiers in the Crimean war suffered from {. pro- longed fever which was finally traced to a germ present in the raw milk of goats. The disease was named Mediterranean or Malta fever. G856).
 A Danish veterinarian named Bangs later found that contagious abortion in cattle was due to a germ he called Bacillus abortus. In 1918 Miss Alice Evans of the U. s. Public Health Service showed that the germs of Bangs disease are closely related if not identical with the germs of Mediterranean, Malta or, Gs it is now called, undulant fever in man.
 Occasional cases of undulant fever have occurred in the United States since the return of the U. s. army from the Philippines. The first epi- demic outbreak occurred in Phoenix, Arizona, in 1922, and since then more and more cases have been rec ognized here and there, not epidem- ically, in many parts of the country.
 Latest designation for the germ of undulant fever is Brucella meli- tensis and for the disease in man bzrucellosis, From the very confu- sion of terms and ideas it is fairly evident that medical science" as usual, is ineXact and subject to change without notice. You can't tell which way the cat will jump next
 Some subsidized authorities" are arbitrary and positive in assuring the public that pasteurizing milk which means heating to 145 degrees F. for 20 to 30 minutes-prevents this disease. Real authorities are not so certain of this.
