But in this they deceive themselves.
You can no more take the danger
out of domestic war than you can
out Of foreign war. Every fight
between husband and wife leaves
its wounds that never quite heal, and
sooner or later, between them, they
kill love. There are very few peace
pacts under which there is not
smoldering enmity. Moreover, the
people whose society we enjoy and
whom we like to be with are those
who yes-yes us, not those who an
tagonize us at every turn. This
goes for husbands and wives as well
as friends. DOROTHY DIX.

THE DATE on the calendar that
hung on the wall back of the desk
in the small office adjacent to Iso-
bel Chambers was March II. Mel
Their the calendar nor the desk had
been there little more than a
fortnight before when Fabienne
SEYMOUR first came to the Park
Plaza hospital. There had been only
q chair. a lounge and a mirror.
IF you've any use for this room
YOU may have it," Mrs. Chandler
had told the girl. You may find
other things you'd like to do here.
Wen talk over any ideas you have
and see if they're practical"
Fabienne's ideas had flowed in
rapid succession and now, in so
short a time, she had become use
full volunteer worker with an Office
of her own.
On her desk there was file of

been Fabienne's idea-tO interview
the parents, to make contacts with
social organizations that would
take I'D the cases if there should be
future needs. There was also a
small private file of Fabienne's
friends who could afford to help
financially in her projects.
She called on Camilla Morse say
ing. Darling. I've done a complete
right-about face. as you probably
know, and I'm horribly ashamed of
the way I treated you when you
wanted me to serve on your COM
1nittees. Because now I want your
help"
Camilla groaned. Il might have
known I was heading for trouble
when I came in answer to your call.
You certainly have done a right

can send our convalescents." Fa-
bienne said promptly.
Come, Fabienne! Not my East
hampton place.
NO, Camilla. I don't care
where it is so long as it's some
place in the country. We ought to
be able to get a big farmhouse
somewhere for about a hundred
month. I'll pay the rent, but you
and your friends are going to raise
the maintenance money. You'll head
tie committee. get Lulu and
Frances and Jane and Gloria"
She launched into an enthusiastic
plan for Cami.las group to raise
money.
When she'd finished and Camilla
had agreed to try Fabienne's sug-
gestions, she said, Fab. if anyone
had ever made a bet with me that
you'd turn out to be a Florence
Nightingale, I certainly would
have taken it up and thought I'd
be sure to win"
Fabienne laughed. Don't be de-
ceived by the white uniform. Mrs.
Chandler suggested that I wear it
because it's more in keeping with
the whole scheme"
Camilla eyed her knowingly.

Fabienne asked, surprised. Of

that Ellen had not been in when she

from repeating that Ellen was quite
attractive. There had been a SPAR
kle and glow about her that Ca

served
Fabienne had never seen Ellen as
she looked that night at the Plaza
with white flowers tucked into her
dark hair that she had brushed into
a fluff on the back of her neck. The
white faille gown she wore was one
that Fabienne had given her and
it's adroit lines had given fuidity
to Ellen's slight figure so often OBJ
scured by the cut Of her own mex
pensive clothes. This gown had a
simple fitted bodice and skirt that
flowed out in stiff wide folds to
give her added height and bring
out the natural dignity that was
part of her.
Coupled with this was the glow
that came from sheer enjoyment
and the happiness that being with

not only attractive to Nicky, it was
breath taking.

air, he experiences a sense Of chill

according to this authority, is to
allow the cold water to flow into the
tub until the desired level is reached,
and then shut it off. Then turn on
the hot water and mix it thoroughly
with the cold water, using ones
hands. When the desired tempera-
ture is reached, close off the hot
water. In this way the temperature
of the room is not unduly raised, nor
does it become humid. The pleasure
Of the bath is increased many times.
The most satisfactory tempera-
ture for morning bath is about
80 or $50.

Opium Traffic
in China

am requested to report and to
protest against the spread of opium
traffic in China. From sources which
I deem to be reliable, I understand
that the Japanese have deliberately
attempted to spread the blight Of
opium addiction among the Chinese.
Wherever her invading armies 60,
there the narcotic traffic springs up
and flourishes, under the direct in
stigation and protection Of the in
vaders. Even little children become
the victims of the scourge, because
where the needs of empire are con-
cerned even little children are fair
game.
Before the present war a great
deal of progress had been made in
Kidding China Of opium addiction.
It seems almost impossibly inhu-
name to think that the reimplanta-
ton of this curse could be deliber-
ately undertaken for purposes of
ACKNOWLEDGMENT.
But it is not any worse than the
commercial exploitation of our own
high school children by marihuana
peddlers.

Causes Of

II With great regularity this de-
partment receives inquiries about
cracking joints. 1t is one Of the sub
iects that is very embarrassing to
! us because there is little that is en-
couraging or informative that can
be said On the subject.
The sound of cracking joints is
made by roughened joint surface
on top of the cartiIags.Which covers
all bones at the joints: In young life
these little sacs are filed full of lu-
bricating fluid, but as age comes on
they dry and, when sudden move

ter sorting in post offices does not
reach its maximum speed until the
illumination surpasses eight to 10
footcandles. Magazine print is read
80 per cent faster when the ilumi-
nation is increased from two to "a

The paper on which letters are
printed cannot be too bright. If you
had pure white paper, which is
scientific curiosity, it would reflect
brightness of 100. The newspaper
which you are reading has bright
ness of 80 for the paper and three
for the ink. The contrast, which is
ratio between the brightness of the
ink and the brightness Of the back
ground, is about SO per cent. In an
ordinary telephone directory the
brightness of the low grade paper
is 81 and the contrast is about 80
per cent. This makes vision more
difficult.
With OIL footcandle, six point
type on good paper can just be dis
cerned; three footcandles would be
required for protracted reading.
Electrical engineers think that
the brilliance in auditoriums should
be five footcandles; in trains, six;
churches and hotel lobbies, eight;

The electric light bill in the aver
age American home is about seven
cents a day. If the same amount of
light were obtained from candles,
the cost would be so times as ex-

| surprise to Fabienne was almost
as mucn of a surprise to Nicky
ana Ellen. Nicky hadn't seen either
OF the girls since the day they went
up to Bill Mallory's country place.
He'd called up about eight merely
TO talk to them, having had hard
day at the Office. Ellen answered,
telling him that Fabienne was at
Wiloughby house for dress re-
hearsal and probably wouldn't re-
turn until eleven.
"Ah," Nicky said, pleased. "A
chance to get you alone. Get into
your party clothes and I'll take YOU
dancing. I'll call for you in half an
hour"
Promptly half an hour later
Nicky appeared, in tails and TOP

hand

said, dimpling in her happiness.

sic, to drink champagne and to
talk. I've got lot of things to say
to you."
Let's do the dancing first" she
said.
The beautiful Persian room at
the Plaza was not crowded. They
had the dance floor almost to
themselves, drifting smoothly to
soft music. Ellen fitted lightly into
Nicky's arms as if she belonged
there, the top of her head coming
to his chin. She wondered if he
could feel the fast beating of her
heart lying so close to the satin
lapel of his coat. They danced as
if they had danced together all
their lives, saying nothing that
would disturb their continuity Of
movement.
"You dance like an angel" Nicl1y
told her, taking her back to their
table.

Efficient lighting depends upon
the factors Of time, contrast and the
size of print, but the most important
thing is the actual gross amount of
illumination.
Summer sunlight gives about
10000 footcandles. Outdoors, on a
clear day, the illumination is from
1900 to $500 footcandles and in the
shade about 500. . Sunlight is, of
course, too strong for reading, but
the other figures quoted are toler-
ated very comfortably. The shortest

teeth present the appearance of oc-
casional white spots with slight
pitting and corrosion, but as the dis
ease progresses the affected areas
increase in size, until the entire sur
face Of the tooth may be included.
Not only that, but the condition
may go beyond the enamel and af-
feet the entire tooth structure.
Notified enamel, like goiter, is en-
demic. The U. S. Public Health Sur
vey has shown that the areas where
mottled enamel occurs are as fol-
lows: A very few places on the At

One of my doctor friends thinks
that the usual method of drawing

a cold-breeder. Most people allow
very hot water to enter the tub, and
when the water reaches a certain

labor and progress in the relief of
pain during labor. A few voices,
whose calling would sound better in
the pre-Victorian wilderness than
today, oppose the relief of pain DUR
ing labor. One woman physician
said, "Child-bearing is so essential
an experience to woman that the
thwarting Of it's normal course by
the use of analgesics may cause
damage to her personality" The
modern obstetrician, however, has
more sensible views and it may be
said that several safe and effective
methods of preventing pain in labor
are available.
Blood Diseases - This is an eX-
tremely active field at present and
methods of diagnosis by tapping the
bone marrow, ETC., have been intro
duced. Great progress has been
made in the treatment of spontane-
Gus hemorrhages and hemorrhaglc
states by the use Of vitamin K. Vita
min K is necessary for blood clothing
and can be introduced INTO Cne DlOou
stream when it is not absorbed.
Vitamin Deficiencies
Neuvology-In neurology the ex-
istence of vitamin deficiency states
has been found to be the cause OF
many nervous syndromes. 1t has,
indeed, been claimed that all cases
Of neuritis are due to deficiency of
vtamin B. Treatment is obvious on
this basis.
In Meniere's disease, or recurrent
vertigo, two procedures have been
found successful. One is Dandy's
operation, which sewers the equilib-
rum branch of the auditory nerve.
The operation is now selective so
that deafness, as in former years,
does not result.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Xix: Gin following the reducing
diet, isn't one supposed to go by the
work one does as to how many Gallo
ries one requires? am very busy
housewife, with a home of rooms to
take care of, and also one child,
besides yard work, tending garden
and chickens, so it seems as though
the low calorie intake isn't sufficient
for my needs, as it brings on nerv-
Gus fatigue"
Answered. very sensible ques-
ton and very sensible way of put
ting it. There are a good many ways
by which we should judge the need
of calorie intake. The amount OF
work is certainly one, but we are
all inclined to fool ourselves about
the amount of work we do-in terms
of calories. In walking you only
burn about five calories per pound
per hour, so that if you weigh l5O
bounds you burn only $50 calories
per hour, about as much as you eat
at breakfast if you have a good
breakfast. On reducing diet, the
calculation of work done is decep-
tive; few overweight people could
stand the amount of work necessary
to burn up many Galleries without
collapsing. But there is another GER
tain fact: Any diet that causes you
annoyance, nervousness or fatigue
is not good for you.
