Rigid, starvation diets are a great
mistake, as any doctor or reputable
exercise salon will agree. The smart
woman manages to lose a few
pounds without endangerlng her
health for a second, or, for that
matter, without being continually
hungry or causing herself actual
discomforts or boredom.
She simply eats minimum
amounts of the -caloried, rich
foods but adequate quantities of
the low-caloried, more or less nom
fattening ones. She doesn't elimin-
ate any particular type of food She
just consumes little less of every
thing at each meal.
For instance, she stops indulging
in second helpings. When she has
had one medium-size portion Of
everything on the menu, she stops
eating. And that is that If she
gets hungry between meals, she
nibbles fruit or celery raw tomatoes,
carrots or cabbage, instead of pastry
or sweets.

diet, she knows that the light
breakfast, light lunch and regular
dinner diet is a good one to fol-
low,
MAINTAIN NEW WEIGHT
BY CASUAL EXERCISE
This allows for fruit. one slice of
lightly buttered toast and a hot
beverage for the first meal of the
day; a light soup or vegetable juice,
large green salad with precious
little dressing. one slice of toast and
beverage for lunch. For dinner,
one portion of everything on the
menu. No second helpings, OF
course, and no dessert at all until
salad has been eaten. Only fruit is
allowed between meals or before 60
ing to bed.
Once she has lost the desired
amount of weight. she tries to get

THE WOMEN----
Forget CuteneSs And Adopt
Quality Best Suited To You

cultivate some quality that is suit
able for q woman.
No woman needs to have her
cute act pointed out to her. She
knows when she Is being cute. But
oddly enough she doesn't know when
cuteness isn't becoming. That is why
she ought not to try 1t If she's past
the age limit, If she's large, or If she
is definitely some other type.
DEVELOP SOME
ADULT QUALITY
There are so many things the girl
with college behind her can be that
she's foolish when she tries to COM
pete with 17-year-olds for cuteness
They have her there every time.
But she doesn't enter coinpe-
tition with them If she picks a
more grown-up quality. She can
be clever. She can be charming
She can be sophisticated. She
can be amusing. She can be
friendly. Or she can be glamor-
Gus. All those are consistent
with her age. None Of them will
make her look plain silly.
So If she is smart, a girl drops
cuteness before her cuteness starts
falling fiat.

X RAY AND RADTUM EMANA-
TION FOR ENLARGED TONSILS

X RAY AND KADAUM EMANA-
TION FOR ENLARGED TONSILS
The mere presence of large tonsils
and adenoid body (the pharyngeal
or third tonsil is more os less the
rule among children, especially chill
dren who have malnutrition--as do
children Of the well-to-do but not
so well educated class in America.
Children Of people. who receive in
struction in health, hygiene, nutri-
ton, physiology and sanitation from
any one and every one bu THE doc
tor, are indeed lucky II they escape
malnutrition. Refined food i1surec
their rnalnVtrition.
When the tonsils and adenoids
become enlarged to degree suffi-
cient to obstruct normal breathing
certainly corrective treatment is inn
perative. If there is evidence that
the child's hearing is at all affected,
immediate corrective treatment is
necessary to prevent deafness. If the
slight obstruction of the breathing
passages Is sufficient to give the child
a wheeze or crow at times or con-
stantly, or to prevent natural
breathing through the nose In sleep,
or to cause mouth breathing, then
treatment is necessary.
The radical operation, removal Of
tonsils and adenoids under general
anesthetic, Is always serious oper-
alton, even If a thousand patients
survive the operation before one
succumbs to accident or complica-
ton on the table or afterward.
In q child under six or eight
years of age there is no alternative
for surgical removal of large tonsils
and adenoids when the obstruction
Of breathing is of a serious nature.
Older children may be tractable
enough to cooperate with the doctor
nthe way necessary for successful
use of the diathermy method. Young
children will not do SO.
In less urgent cases X-ray treat
ment or radium emanation treat
ment may give the most satisfactory
results. These methods are painless
safe and efficient in everyday prac-
tice. A few x-ray treatments, of
course in the hands Of physician
skilled in the special work, one every
two weeks, perhaps, will bring about
definite improvement In the course
of two rthree months. A few such
treatments given the child with ade-
mold obstruction of the Eustachian
tube orifice in the naso-pharnyx will
prevent lifelong deafness IN many
instances. Indeed some physicians
with large experience In dealing with
children advocate annual examina-
ton of school children for such
adenoidal obstruction Of the Eus-
tachian tubes and x-ray treatment
for all who are found SO affected.
The radium emanation treatment
Is applied in the form of minute
glass tubes or seeds" of radium
emanation which are inserted in the
tonsil crypts and retained there for
time. This brings about shrinkage
or atrophy Of the tonsils without
producing any reaction. 1t Is practi-
cally painless office treatment
Finally, the best suggestion can
offer In a general way Is that every
young person with lymphoid hyper
plasia (simple enlargement OF tom
sils and adenoids) should % go as
nearly nude as possible and 81 take
at least 5000 units OF vitamin d
as a daily supplement to the regular
diet, or both.

WOMAN,S REALM :
FROM TOP TO TOE AND SPATS,
TOO. FURS ARE THE FASHION
THAT'S THE BIG NEWS IN ACCESSORY DEPARTMENTS
5WS IN ACCESSORY DEPARTMENTS
BY MARIAN YOUNG
NEA Service staff Correspondent

New York. - Fur trimmed bags,
gloves, hats, shoes and even spats
are the big news in accessory depart
ments these days. And the dressy
fur suit is staging a comeback.
All In all, the woman who did
nothing about midsummer sales but
simply put off buying furs until now
may have the last laugh after all.
The endless variety of newly designed
fur coats and accessories couldn't
be more interesting.
There are chic turbans and berets
finished with pompons of silver fox
and other long-haired furs. There
are sleek antelope suede bags with
insets of fiat furs, like pony or cara
cul. An accessory set, including fur
bag and umbrella with handle COW
cred with matching fur, continues
to be popular. And spats with mar
row bands of fur around the top are
news.
The old-fashioned stole of fiat fur,
with huge, matching muff, has been
revived. Tiny capes have Gay
Nineties look about them. The fitted
jacket with flared peplum comes in
a variety of furs, In all price ranges.
SLEEK SEAL
SUIT is SMART
Among the smartest of the new
fur suits is one which consists Of
a fitted and fared jacket of sleek
Alaska sealskin in matara brown,
the new blush brown shade which
harmonizes with all other colors, in
Guiding black. Safari brown seal
skin remains important, of course,
but the new brown with Blush cast
is fast becoming popular.
The other half of the suit is a
moderately flared skirt of wool in
the same BLUSH brown color with
bands of matching fur at the hem
line. The jacket may be worn over
separate dresses and with other
skirts.

son valleys invading New York from the North or Canada from the South; but this historic trad ition has been nullified by the present-day reality of Canadian American friendship and it's 5000 miles of unfortified frontiers.
 In the problem presented by the 1889 First Army maneuvers, the invader is an enemy from overseas who crossed te Atlantic Ocean and landed on the New England coast. This invading army, represented by the four National Guard Divisions and their auxiliary troops, is seeking to enter New York, and is met in the Plattsburg area by the Blue defending force. The effort of the Blue defenders to check the Black invaders brings on the mock battle.

 Confronting these two Corps on the field of mock battle will be defending force led by Ma jor General James A. Woodruff, U. s. A, now commanding Gen. eral First Corps area. The de- lending forces will consist prin- cipally of the First Division, Reg ular Army, the 18th Infantry, and the Seventh Cavalry Brig ade, the largest completey mech anized unit in the United States Army.
 The work of the mechanized Cavalry Brigade will be watched with especial interest. There are no horses in. the organization, and the rugged nature of the
 
 country in the maneuver area will test severely the effective ness of mechanical troops oper- ating under the most adverse conditions.
 The spread of standardization in European armies has been an out standing military development since the World War, but there are many staunch partisans of the horse who maintain that the absence of the man on horseback is likely to prove fatal to the army which tries to ignore his essential usefulness. AS the mech anized Cavalry Brigade from the Regular Army attempts to run rings around the 101st Cavalry (horse) from the New York Ma tional Guard, the experts will have every opportunity to ga- ther material to support their pet arguments on the merits of machine warfare.
 While standardization and mo- torization will gear the ground troops to the pace of modern high-speed warfare, Air Corps units will seek to drive the ac- ton even faster.
