THE smartest kind Of dress for
! runabout, as becoming as it is
practical, is yours if you use No.
TIT to make it. The button-down-
the-front style is extremely popu-
lar. This dress, too, has lines that
make your figure look slim and
youthful. The skirt is slim over
the hips, high at the waist, and
full at the hem. The shirred bod
ice and wide-shouldered sleeves
give you a softly rounded look.
Make this dress of fiat crepe, silk
print or sheer fabrics.
Three-in-O One FrOck.
Here's a clever design that
gives you three different fashions
in one! First of all, No. 1885 is
a charming little kimono-sleeved
frock with a flattering, tiny waist.
And with it comes a little bolero
Chat you can wear with other
frocks, tool and a tie-around
apron-skirt, fastened with a bow
in the front. Wear it any one of
three ways-alone, with the boz
lero, or with both the bolero and
apron-skirt. For this, choose silk
print, fiat crepe, taffeta, thin wool,
and combinations of two contrast
ing fabrics.

SAFETY TALKS
How About Your Safety?

IF YOU know all the rules about
wearing rubbers when it rains,
red flannel indies in the winter.
and If you don't sleep in a, draft,
you probably take pretty good
care of your health. But how
about your safety?.
The National Safety council re-
ports that from the age of three
years to 81, accidents kill more
persons (both sexes) than any dis
ease; from the age of three years
to 40, accidents kill more males
than any disease.
Among males Of all ages only
heart disease claims more vic
Tins than accidents-301.6 of ev-
cry 100000 males die of heart dis
ease each year while accidents
kill 1876. Among the ladies, six
diseases rank above accidents as
a cause of fatalities. They are
heart disease, cancer, cerebral
hemorrhage, pneumonia and
chronic nephritis.

Plenty Of Bulk Required

There is still another reason
why green vegetables and fruits
should be consumed in liberal
quantities. These foods, along
with whole grain cereals, provide
an abundance of bulk or cellulose
which is necessary to help pro-
mote regularity. They tend to off
set the effects of a too highly con-
centrated winter diet. Very often
that feeling of lassitude, mistaken
ly called spring fever, can be over.
come by adding to the diet a large
er proportion of these naturally
laxative foods.
It's also desirable to take an
adequate supply of fluids to help
flush the system Of waste. In addi-
ton to a generous amount Of wa
ter, there should be a pint Of milk
daily for every adult, a quart for
every child, and fruit juices in
abundance. Orange Juice, grape
fruit juice, pineapple juice and to-
mato juice all supply vitamins A,
B and c, and their refreshing fruit

the appetite. @ 't7s

We know today why their efforts
met with little success. For we
have learned what they could not
know-that the best possible tonic
is carefully chosen diet rich in
minerals and vitamins.
In those days, the science of
nutrition was in its infancy. Vita
minis were still undiscovered, and
there was much that we had not
learned about the role of the min
eral salts in regulating body proc
esses. No wonder mothers grasped
at any mixture that promised to
put roses back into the cheeks of
their manufacturing children.
How lucky we are today! For
sciences has taught us what we
should eat to help increase pep
and vitality, and build rich red
blood. And modern methods Of
transportation, refrigeration, food
preservation and packaging, have
made the necessary foods easily
available. 1t merely remains for
the homemaker to acquaint her.

her family.

Exercise and Fresh Air

Two more splendid ahtidotes for
the let-down feeling that comes at

and fresh air. The proper use Of

the winter diet contains prepon-
derance of carbohydrates and
fats, with far too few of the pre-
cious minerals and vitamins. 1t
is often deficient in iron, the min
eral that is required for the for
nation Of the hemoglobin or red
pigment in the blood, and in cop
per, which is required for the
proper utilization Of iron.
Inasmuch as 8 per cent Of the
blood cells are destroyed daily, it
is obvious that unless adequate
amounts of iron-rich foods are
available to replace them, the
number will soon become SUBJ
normal. Moreover, it has been
found that many minor disturb
ances Of the body cause a loss Of
iron, and that mild infections are
a common cause Of iron loss.
Thus, individuals who have been
consuming a diet that is barely
adequate in respect to iron may
find themselves on the borderline
Of iron deficiency following an in
lection.
lron-Rich Foods
Every homemaker, therefore,
should make a determined effort
to include plenty of iron-rich foods
in her menus. These foods in
clude liver, eggs. whole grain &C.
reals, dried fruits, lean meats and
green leafy vegetables.
Green vegetables cannot be en-
phasized too strongly, for they
tend somewhat to be crowded out
of the winter diet by the starchy
and fatty foods which provide
more heat and energy. And in
vestigations with children have
demonstrated that when vegeta-
bles and fruits are limited, there
is a certain sluggishness Of blood
formation. Green vegetables not
only supply iron i'm significant
amounts, but their iron has been
found to be especially well alb
sorbed from the digestive tract.
Eat More Greens
Right now it is most important
| to provide large amounts Of dam

Vines had all the pace on the
