DR.. Miner was the big boss there and
even Criley admitted he was good.
Criley was young-about my age-and

Miners. If any bum of a doctor ever
sent a borderline case there, Miner
shipped 'em back SO fast that their
family hardly knew they'd left home.
Well it seems this girl with the
automobile had a porcelain facing on
canine that had been broken, and
the porcelain wasn't holding up. SO
Criley recommends me and she phones
in for an appointment.

IODIN RATION AND THE ANTI
 GRAY HAIR FACTOR

IODIN RATION AND THE ANTI
 GRAY HAIR FACTOR
 A reader says that at the age of fifty years her hair was turning gray at the temples. She began talk ing the Iodin Ration Ill explain what this is later) about a year ago. Now, believe it or not, I de- cline to commit myself, her hair has resumed its natural dark brown color. and where the general effect a year ago was gray today the eff feet is brown even over the tenn ples.
 The general effect, the lady says.
 Now one of the indications for the Iodin Ration, as I explain in the monograph Instructions for Taking an Iodin Ration" which you had better send 1h -cent-stamped addressed envelope for, is depres- sion of spirits or melancholia. Or in children in their teens it may be 8 disposition to nope and day dream, appear pensive or even gloomy at a time of life when a child normally should be animated, full of gaity and good humor.
 So I interpret the lady's change from general gray effect to general brown effect to the effect of the Iodin Ration on her outlook and spirits. Whether there has been any actual restoration of the orig inal natural color to the gray hair is a question I leave to our reader to answer. All say is that prema- tlire graying of the hair is an in dication that one needs more iodine in one form or another - in food. water or medicine. Simplest way to get it is by taking a wee nip of ordinary tincture of iodine as I ex- plain in the yellow paper.
 In g discussion of the medical aspect of deficiency of one of the vitamin B-complex entities '(nico- tinic acid) some of the physicians commented on the observation. re- ported by patients, that gray hair had regained its original color aft CT they had received full daily doses of nicotinic acid for some few months.
 There is an entity in the vitamin B complex, probably other than ricotinic acid, which is known as the anti-gray hair factor because rates on diet adequate in all other respects but deficient in this entity become prematurely gray. Whether this applies to- the graying Of the hair of man or woman, nobody knows as yet. Our readers might contribute toward solution of the problem. All one need do, Is sup- plement his ordinary diet with an optimaI daily ration of vitanin B complex = say by eating four or five ounces of wheat germ daily, or by taking 600 to 900 international units of B1 preferably as B com plex tablets. It is extremely diffi- cult to get that much B-complex from food alone. Possibly 800 to $50 international units of B1 (tl1i- arnin), preferably in the natural B complex as it occurs in foods, would be sufficient to maintain good nu- tfition and good health if one got that much every day. But when there has been a deficiency over q prolonged period It Is advisable to

 And this Is the key to extrava- gance, have discovered. The idea is, s'What,s the use? Might as well be little excited and happy on what we have"
 It is the feeling of surplus that conjures up a canny care about conserving.
 I believe that parents who have to fork over a dollar or half dol lar every week for carfare or new socks and Sunday school anyway, might just as well as not try out the budget instinct in children.
 Jimmy with, a dollar takes on a seriousness and possibility new to the old Jimmy with onlya nickel at 8 time to spend on lolly-pops or licorice whips. s s5
 There are parents, and sensible ones, who give allowances to their children, but expect. the pig bank on the mantel to be fed three fourths of l.. Money saved is money earned" they argue, and how right they are, too.
 Someday, Jimmy, will be as proud as Punch and Judy put together when he sees Piggy butchered and his anatomy heavy with new nickels and Lincoln pennies. But when he sees the three, four or five dollars disappear in the big bank down. town, lust for the sake of 8 little green book to be locked away in the desk, he may lose a bit of his enthusiasm for hoarding. <
 Thrift Is best taught by getting value received. And thrift does not mean putting all ones money on ice, but part of it, only, and using the rest to the best advantage pos sible.
 Budgeting is the word. This means 6 reasonable division for everything nee.ed, a little for fun, . little for buying necessities.
 By buying and budgeting, chil- dren learn value. To save 1t all or to sqlander 1t all teaches little. They must learn, no matter how rich they are, that q cent 0e q quarter has its limits, that It won't come back and tssst 1t Hen't stretch.
