 A bright spot on your fashion, horizon =. this pretty summer dress that is simple enough for ev- eryday, and "fussy" enough for par ties! Claire Tilden is the ingenious designer of Pattern 823, and says, Why not use my new design for a Basic Dress?" Indeed, you can vary 1t easily with belts and sashes as she suggests. You might buy pique collar, bright scarf, and some jewelry too, for additional "changes". Notice how gracefully the yoke curves where it comes to- gether at center front. The sleeves also have flattering curves-and are cut in two cool lengths. Consider how sleek the midriff is with darts at front while the fulness of the bodice and the swing of the gored skirt contribute their chic to this popular doll-waist silhouttel
 Pattern 823 is cut in misses and women's sizes 12. 14, IS, 18, 20, 30, g, 34, 36, 38, 40 and 42. Size 16 re- Quires 3 5-8 yards 35 inch fabric.

where she was one of the first wo- men students back in the '70's.
 Miss Tarbell's refusal to take N corner and be an old lady is . fine lesson both for the woman who is staying at home bringing up family, and for the woman whose profession is her life.
 The average mother sees the last of her children leave home by the time she is 30 or so. Chances are, she has many years still ahead of her.
 Right now, while she Is busy being a homemaker, she ought to give some thought to those years. Figure out how she can make them active, happy, successful.
 The career woman ought to be doing the same thing. Long after younger women have started crowding her, she'll have her health, her intelligence, and her ability.
 If a woman has the get up and get of an Ida Tarbell she'll never be a poor old thing huddled in & rocker waiting for the visits of her family and friends.

IMPROVED TREATMENT OF
 RUPTURE

IMPROVED TREATMENT OF
 RUPTURE
 In a series of newspaper contri- buttons by the forceful but inexper- fenced Dr. Fishbein, quasi-official spokesman of the American Medical Association, the ambulant or injec- tion treatment of hernia, rapidly gaining popularity, was quaintly condemned because Of its hypothet- ical dangers and disadvantages.
 Then the newspaper contributions of the A. M. A. representative took a furtive rap at "a popular writer on medical subjects" who, confound him, "sits at his desk and, on the basis of the claims made by few doctors scattered throughout the country, tries to urge his readers to submit their ruptures to injection methods ."
 That was where the American Medical Association stood in 1935-36. At least no member or officer of the association ventured to present, shall we say, minority report to offset the arbitrary fancy of the omniscient Dr. Fishbein.
 But, dear me, 1885 was ages ago. Medicine makes rapid strides nowa- days. Here at the close of 1888 or the early part of 1889 the official Journal of the A. M. A., edited by the versatile and indefatigable Dr. Fishbein, reviews the second edition of a monograph on Hernia, by Leigh F. Watson, M. D. Mosby Co.,, '38), which contains several chap- ters on injection treatment, and rec ommends the book to every doctor and every student of medicine!
 So, ease down, everybody. Maybe it wasn't the method that displeased the ubiquitous Dr. Fishbein and his almost all" Gall anonymous) sur- geons, after all. Maybe it was just "a popular writer on medical sub- jects."
 Another review of Dr. Watson's classical textbook appeared recently in the U. S. Naval Medical Bulletin. In this review there are listed as favorable for the injection treat ment the following types of cases:
 1. Industrial cases where the her. nias are small and reducible. Dr. Watson states that in Minnesota,

 This is the time when the woman who firmly resolves to stay neatly Rroomed, crisp and fresh looking in spite of hot summer weather searches for new beauty gadgets and nreparations which will help her to stick to her resolutions.
 Among the new items, designed to make grooming routines, simpler, is a long-bristled clothes brush, espe- cially recommended for tweeds, slacks and other wools in your coun- try weekend wardrobe. A quick brushing with one of these will re- move the tiny balls of fuzz which collect on your plain sweaters as yell as the excess fuzz on the angora cues.

here she is dreading every hour un- til Henry's bedtime.
 She cannot let the child out of 1 her sight for an instant. He is five years old, or almost, and the strain is telling. She even has to lie down in his room when he takes his short nap, for she fears he won't stay in bed and might get the scissors or spill her ink. He never has touched the scissors or the ink, but then he might, just when she is not expecting it. Mother Spots Trouble Her mother came in at noon. And already Mrs. Adams was a nervous wreck. She had called to Henry every five minutes, Henry, are you there?" And Henry always was, right on the porch or in the yard.
 Mother saw things. She had noticed them before. She herself had raised six children. She had held her peace for months, be- cause she thought 1t best. But now she could see that Mary was getting beyond herself with the worry and responsibility of one child.
 Before she did the dishes, Mary called out to Henry, Don't go of the sidewalk. Stay right there and be sure you don't touch Mrs. Blanks flowers"
 Henry hadn't thought of touch- ing Mrs. Blanks flowers but 1t was a good idea. He crossed the line and smelled a pansy. He touched a pansy. He sat down beside the pensy-bed and stared at the little blue and yellow faces. Mrs. Blank came out and said, 'Why, Henry, do you like my flowers? Here, I'll give you few to take home" So she pulled half dozen pansies and Henry took them home.
 Mary nearly collapsed. T knew it. I told you not to touch those flowers. The minutes turn my back you are into mischief" Must Trust Child And this was her mothers chance. "You are worrying your self to death about the best boy that ever lived, my dear," said she. "You can't get over the idea that he cannot think, and lacks judgment.
 "What if you had half a dozen? You would soon learn that most children, even at Henry's age, have pretty good sense. He will go to kindergarten in the fall. Then what will you do when he is out of earshot?
 "But you won't think him safe, ever. Not if you keep on. Learn to trust him, and stop frowning." Good advice indeed.

of the sports minded mother And for any mother, old or young there are lovely beads that look for all the world like large soap bubbles.
 In daytime bags, huge sized ones continue to be most popular. For the mother who intends to travel this Summer-perhapS to one or both of the Worlds Fairs-a bag of natural saddle leather, with a special closing which makes the bag stay open once you have it open, is nice indeed. To wear with summer cottonS and spectator sports dress es, plaid gngham bag with red percale lining is smart. Among in- expensive bags, pastel suede ones with matching gloves are news. , You can't go wrong in the cos- metics department, of course. A flacon of her favorite perfume, a new box of face powder, a set of lipsticks, a complete makeup kit-any one of these is sure to please.
 Among the novelties you might consider is 8 blue satin pin cush- ion. filled with sachet powder, in- to which are stuck four corsage pins, the top of each a tiny bottle of perfume. The bottles are filled with different scents, of course. Mother might wear two of the pins on her hat, the other two on her lapel.
 Such perennial favorites as leath- CT sewing boxes, lined with moire, comb cases, compacts, feminine looking billfolds, stockings, mono grammed handkerchiefs, slippers, gloves and colorful scarfs still re- main favorites.
 Taffeta petticoats and slips and nightgowns of filmy cottons are news. A bedjacket of handkerchief linen is decorated with hand-em- broidered bowknots. A blue silk scarf has the 1899 calendar in rich, deep red figures and letters.
 The florists have outdone them selves this year, and really orig inal bouquets of cut flowers as well as wide variety of plants and corsages for Mothers Day are available in all price ranges.
 And, of course, you can't ge wrong on gloves. Any mother will appreciate pair of plain white, doeskin pull-ons. No wom- an ever has too many pairs o1 good, simple white ones.

might be interested in a new hair brush with the real bristles set in a concave curve. The handle really fits the hand so that if you twist your hand a bit as you brush, each hair will be pulled slightly and therefore stimulated.
 If exposure to bright sunshine causes new lines and wrinkles, which make you look harassed and untidy instead of rested and fresh, consider using little medicated, wind-shaped pads on the vulnerable spots. Plaster one of these over the wrinkles on your brow or at corners of your eyes and leave it on while you sleep. You'll be surprised at how much less obvious the lines are next morning.

for example. nearly 90 per cent ot all industrial hernia claims that are approved by the Industrial Com. mission are awarded the injection treatment.
 2. Aged and infirm patients for whom operation carries increased risk.
 3. Infants and children with small hernia, for whom operation is un- satisfactory owing to difficulties o1 post-operative care. 4. Patients with reducible hernia who are fearful of operation. 5. Moderately obese patients. 6. Cases with tendency toward re- currence after operation. A few in- jections properly placed will over come the weakness that might de- velop into a recurrence. 2.
