THE D AND CA TREATMENT
 OE ARTHRITIS

For many years readers have been reporting in letters to this column their satisfaction from taking vari- ous forms of calcium for ''rheuma- tism."
 Fundamentally I'm skeptical of the remedial value of most medi- cfnes if not 8 therapeutic nihilist, so have generally credited these beneficial reuslts to Old Doctor Co., incidence.
 Since the recently introduced high potency vitamin D treatment of chronic arthritis has come into wide use, with most encouraging results in many obstinate cases, have been constrained to abate my incredulity a jot and couple of titles. Not that the high potency or massive dose vita min D treatment is 8 sure cure or even panacea, but in @ fair propor- tion of cases of advanced chronic arthritis which fails to respond to other remedies or therapeutic meas ures daily dose of from 100000 to 100000 U. s.

A quaint hand-woven rug lends just that extra honey touch to your favorite room. Why not have the fun of weaving one yourself, utiliz- ing odds and ends of colorful cloth? Soft beiges, greens and pinks would be lovely.
 Your loom, too, can easily be made at home. Just nail together four wooden slats, making an ob- long frame 27 by 36 inches.
 To the shorter sides tack strips of burlap and through these thread a warp of heavy postal twine, car rying it back and forth across the loom.
 For the weaving cut strips of cloth 3 or 4 inches in width and fold raw edges under to make strips l inch wide. Start at upper left of loom and doubling your strip, weave with both ends at once - one end pass ing over each warp thread as the other passes under. Push rows to- gether as you weave = giving your work a braid-like effect. You can easily weave, too, a col- orful belt and purse set of crepe paper raffia on a cardboard loom Or weave gay place mats of bias binding on a breadboard!
 Our 32-page booklet gives full in- structions for weaving these and other attractive items for home and personal use = among them scarves pillow tops, coasters, doilies.

muscles of the shoulder girdle, lower back, buttocks, and legs to raise or hold the body alert.
 The first sign or symptom of overuse of these muscles during mental work is discomfort. How many mental workers complain of pain at the nape of the neck, across the shoulders, in the lower part of the back, and in the legs? If mental workers would only heed these warnings, rest their bodies periodically as manual workers do, and release these ten- sions occasionally by rhythmic exercise, they need never have the more serious consequences of too much mental work-intellectual de- terioration and emotional break down.
 Tense mental workers always become sensitive to a o 1 e. There is no question that intense noise is generally disliked, and that, when for any reason a person be- comes irritable and fatigued, noises are very disturbing. In order to shut out, as it were, the effects of noise during acts demanding concentra- tion, the tendency is for the body musculature to become even more tense. To concentrate in 8 noisy environment one must work harder. That is the explanation for some of the fatigue which is experienced in city offices, in industrial shops, and in schoolrooms and homes.
 Mental over-work is serious because it leads so rapidly and dis astrously to Apprehension - the forerunner of exhaustion and break down.
 One factor which helps most individuals not to get too tense from mental work is the lack of satisfaction in that type of en- deavor. The sensory pains from strained poStures and misuse of the eyes, and the deprivations from physical exercise and social intercourse make the average per- son less willing rather than less able to continue mental work. nly exceptionally persistent peo- pie will wear themselves out with intellectual work.
 It is these persistent mental workers. however, who control the patterns of living for so many other people. They are also the people who are looked up to in our society. They are the doctors, lawyers, teachers, preachers. upon whom we all must rely. These people need vacations and diver sions as much. if not more. than the rest of us.

 @. When should ornamental trees and shrubs be pruned !? A. They seldom need more than little annual pruning. Dead, in- jured, or diseased limbs should be removed at any time. Early spring Towering trees and shrubs should be pruned while the plants are in leaf, and about a week or two after the flowers have fallen, as they de- velop their flower buds during the late summer and fall previous to Towering. Trees and shrubs that blossom later should be pruned while dormant or just as growth starts in the spring.
 @. What can use to make thick syrup that is not too sweet, when canning fruits?
 A. Use one-fourth dextrose and three-fourths sucrose.
 Q. Why should thick cover bat ters, griddlecakes and waffles be stirred very little?
 A. They contain more flour in proportion to the liquid, and beat ing may develop the gluten too much and make them tough.
 e. Tn slip covers, are pattern ma- terials more serviceable than plain ones?
 A. Pattern materials soil and show wrinkles less quickly than plain ones, but they may cost more, be- cause more material is sometimes needed to fit the patterns together in the cover.
 c. Are copper and iron utensils suitable for canning meats?
 A. They may discolor the meat and should not be used. Utensils for meat canning are preferably of enamelware, aluminium, retinned or stainless metal.
 c. What is brain flag?
 A. An excess of mental work, worry or excitement. combined with insufficient sleep is likely to be fol- lowed by brain fatigue. Inability to concentrate on intellectual work. restlessness, and inability to sleep are symptoms. There may be pily- sicai reasons for brain fatigue and a physician should be consulted for treatment.

 It can be feminine an interest she pleases. In fact the out of her husbands line it s the more he will be impressed by her knowledge or her skill.
 But she should make it easy for him to brag about her.
 If she has her own ideas about the kind of fur- nitre she likes let her try designing her own Her husband will tell every guest that she designed this piece and that one.
 If she likes to read and her husband doesn't she shouldn't let that discourage her. He'll be bragging to his friends that his wife is studying this that she has just finished reading that

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Hay Fever

Deeply grateful for your advice on hay fever. Have been following the instructions in monograph on Al markable. I'll never again be with out soluble KC1 during hay fever time. Is it all right to dissolve the tablet in orange juice instead of water? I'm such 8 baby about talk ing medicine. (Mrs. W. R)
 Answer-Yes. On request of read CTS who inclose stamped addressed envelope I am glad to mail mono graphs on Hay Fever" and Relief for Allergy."
 Characteristic Deduction
 You have recommended quinine so highly as home remedy, we would like to hear your views on the state- ment in the clipping inclosed. (S. T. E) Answer-The clipping is a news picture of two gentlemen who had to hold their heads cheek to cheek while one of them pretends to read his paper, for the photographer $ benefit. The gentlemen purport to be Doctors" They cite statistics that only a small portion of the deaf are born deaf and they deduce that quinine must be accountable for deafness at birth-because SO many expectant mothers have at some time in life taken quininel The Doctors who made this characteristic deduc- ton are not doctors of medicine, however. That's all one needs to know.

New York-The newest modern furniture, now featured in midsummer furniture sales, shows tend- ency among designers of Modern to drift away from the cold square lines toward gracious pleasing curves even carvings The rather unlovely packing case" lines of Early Modern so prevalent few years ago, are seldom seen
 New wood finishes also headined And deco rators and interior designers continue to advocate the combination of Modern and traditional furniture in the same room
 WALNUT IN NEW FINISHES
 In wanut-always widely used wood in Modern the newest of the bleached finishes is of-white Alone or combined with natural walnut other woods, this new blond tone is lovely against the increasingly popu lar pastel fabrics and wall paints or papers.
 Black walnut also is used for the new more grace fully designed modern pieces. And between the off, white and the black there is suntan, snort n-be- tween shade which is riper version of the old har- vest tones.

There Is some confusion in the
minds Of many people as to the
difference between the militia and
the national guard" Dr. Cleary
said. "All able-bodied men be-
tween the ages of is and As are
in the United States militia. The
national guard also is composed
CT men who are essentially civil
lians. but these men have met
once every week for drill and for
several weeks during the summer
for training"
In the regular army, DR.. Cleary
went on to say. besides the admin
istrative division, there are four
major combatant branches. which
include the infantry, the artillery,
the cavalry (now largely mechan-
ized). and the air corps. There is
need for capable officers with
advanced education in all branch
es of the service. That is why
young men are being urged to
continue their education II pos
sible. Those who prepare them
selves for key positions in indus
try and business are doing an out
standing patriotic service as we'll
as those who join the regular
army, DR.. Cleary declared.
