I white accents provided by the most feminine blouses in raw silk or II, chiffon usually with Q scarf or jabot neckline,
 The Ardanse collection includes the most recent expression of the "two-time" dress. The wide skirt Is caught under the back, forming a straight panel front. This fullness can be released and you have a er-umbrella skirt, complete with "swaying" hem. Thus, in its first form, 1t Is inconspicuous and suffi- ciently simple for informal dates, When the fullness is released, 1t acquires the touch of extravaganza and dressiness proper to more for nal afternoon affairs.
 Another novelty in the Ardansc collection is the semi-tailored eve- ming coat-frock-to replace the ubi- quitous evening suit: these can "zip" or fasten around the throat over generous front decolletages when going from one place to an- other,

WOMAN,S REALM :
Glorifwng Yourself
By Alicia Hars
MA aerYice staff Wrller

The most exciting of the new spring beauty preparations comes under the heading of pick-me-ups. In other words, they are ietms which If used correctly, will give your face fresher, more dewy look.
 Among the new pic-me-ups are facial mask pads. Of soft pink cot- ton and large enough to cover the face from forehead to chin, they come in glass tubes, scientifically sealed. You simply break the seal on e tube, remove the moist pad and press 1t against your skin. (Clean your face first, of courSe) Relax for fifteen or twenty minutes during which time the soothing lotion in the pad softens your skin and seems to make fine lines less obvious.
 unlike most masks, the new pad type Is not drying. So you do not need to apply cream afterward. Simply remove the pink pad, let your skin dry for e moment or two, then apply makeup in the regular manner. Foundation lotion will not p0 t1CCSSoufys AACtdSAteuAayt S0SAA PuSa may be used three times. When you remove 1t from your face, fold 1t chrefully and put 1t back in the glass tube. These come in sets of six. And they're ideal for travelling as well as home use.
 A Jar of eye pads is pretty handy thing to have around, too, The pads are saturated with 0 lo- ton which soothes and seems to brighten tired eyes. An ideal system is to clean face and throat, smooth on night cream, place one of the eye pads over the eyes, then rest twenty minutes.
 New, too, is an eye shadow prep aration in stick form. Use the colorless stick of pomade on your eyelids during the daytime and, for evening, use colorless as base with blue, green or brown or whatever color happens to be tiattering as a finishing touch. The colorless gives eyelids a moist, perfectly groomed look and, of course. is e great deal less trouble than cream from e jar,

LATENT sCURvY

LATENT SCURvY
 Popular conceptions of scurvy are rather apochryphal.
 Lind, a surgeon In the British navy, was the first to recognize that scurvy could be prevented or cured by orange juice and lemon juice or lime juice, and about the middle of the 18th century lime juice became a regular part of the sailors ration. Prior to that time scurvy had been the scourge of the sea, often disabling the entire ships crew on long voyages and many of the victims died.
 When was an interne in Q large metropolitan hospital typical cases of scurvy in infants were not ufl- common. The infants were fed with boiled milk modified, but we did not then know that all babies re- quire tomato or. other fresh fruit or fresh vegetable juiee daily to prevent scurvy. We did know that on the first indication of scurvy the baby's milk should no longer be boiled, but the fresh raw milk given instead. Now we know that fresh raw milk contains some vitamin 0, which is destroyed by par-boiling (pasteurizing) or by boiling.
 Scurvy is most likely to occur when the baby is from seven to ten months old. The baby becomes fretful. pale and tender in the legs, so that he cries out when handled, and soon this soreness is evident in knees and ankles. The gums be- come purple, swollen, tender and bleed on slight irritation. Doubtless this soreness of the gums has been maltreated as "cut teeth in many a case of infantile scurvy. The baby is cross, sleeps poorly, loses color and weight, has little or no appetite. If the nature of the trouble is not recognized and fresh fruit or vege- table juices given, the baby be-

 Printed silks are still featured such as the old paisley designs and the more vivid modern patterns these look especially well with the creamy raw silk numbers which are indicated for sunny days.

fifty cents apiece"
 Nothing could be further from the truth. The cost of living now is higher to be sure, but at that time the price of commodities, such as butter and eggs, was little lower than now; and many things were higher. Rents were lower, but stiff enough to discourage a young couple just starting out. There were to all intents and purposes, the same temptations and luxuries there are now and they all cost money.

 My husband and I married on sevently dollars Q month. People said we could not manage. Well, we did. We took @ little house in the country (both of us were born and raised on brick pavements), at twenty dollars a month. It had no bathroom.

BABY CAN'T SQUIRM
 OUT OF THIS

A new sleeping garment for baby designed to keep him warm and comfortable, regardless of how he kicks and squirms, is really part jacket and part coverlet, the front of the jacket extending outward at the sides from the waistline and downward to form the coverlet. The jacket section is long-sleeved, gener- ously cut and gusseted for ease of movement, and slide-fastened for easy accessibility; the coverlet section fastens down over the crib mattress snugly with tapes. These garments come in sweet shades of blue or pink fiannelette and are dec- orated with amusing animal motifs.

My daughter, almost four years old, swallowed small round whistle a little larger than a dime, two
 weeks ago, At least I believe she did. but have heard nothing from 1t. should we have x-ray. (Mrs. E. M. D.
 Answer-If she swallowed the ob- ject 1t probably passed within 4S hours. In any event 1t would be ex- tremely unlikely to give any trouble. Here 1t may be well to repeat the directions for mothers to follow in case 8 child swallows a foreign body:
 l. Give no physic and no efnetic.
 9. Have the child eat a good sized bowl of mixed vegeta5les--cabbage green beans, celery, carrots, potato. turnip, etc. These vegetables should be cooked only few minutes. They should be swallowed without nasti- cation of course all chopped fine. Wash down with water. Or. George w. Boot)
 3. If the child is too young to eat such vegetables, feed the child all the ripe banana he will take for 24 hours. If no bananas are avail- able, then all the mashed potato the child will take. The purpose is to provide sufficient bulk of residue to coat over and promote passage of the foreign body through the ali- mentary canal.
