surface, duller than it has been be-
fore, even richer looking, yet just as
satisfactorily maintained.
The new surface is described as
suede, that soft, velvety look-as
opposed to the polished, sleek,
cleaning look of its older brother
in the structural glass family. Es-
sentially it is, of course, the same
material. A special treatment of the
glass under the polishing machine
merely softens the surface reflec-
tions and diffuses light striking
against it so that actual glare Is
reduced considerably.
Previously, when this duller effect
was desired, sandblasting and etch-
ing were resorted to. But the max
ers of the new suedelike glass say
that this new finish is more easily
cleaned than sandblasted or etched
glass, while giving approximately
the same effect. All you have to do,
if suede-fnished glass gets soiled by
grease or cement or something
similarly hard to remove, is wipe IL
with oil-free gasoline. and then. II
necessary, with solution OF one
pint of household ammonia to 10
quarts of water.
The suedelike glass is a little
higher in price than the satinlike;
1888 for a panel 2 feet by
feet, as compared with $5.16 for the
same sized panel with the unmatted
surface. 1t comes in white, black
gray, ivory, jade, beige. forest green
wine, orange and blue. All colors
except wine, blue and orange are
available at 11/32-inch thickness
the three special colors come IN
7/16-inch thickness.
For really different-looking bath
room or kitchen walls, investigate
this new special-purpose glass.

 As for "A", yes = the teacher, personally interested, is a fine ally. She may understand your change ling better than you do, because she has perspective, and a farther view is often necessary in dealing with children. This is the mothers one disadvantage.

LONG WASTED FOLK WITH ! WEAK DIGESTION

The great teacher, Dr. WI. Os- Ter, gave two pages in his famous Practice of Medicine" to Glenard's disease (enteroptosis) and summed up treatment in a sentence: In a majority of all cases four indica- tions are present: To treat the ex- isting neurasthenia, to relieve the nervous dyspepsia, to overcome the constipation, and ot afford mechan- ical support to the organs.
 Here, now, I shali say only that pr. Osler wrote that at least fifty years ago.
 ! The idea of exhaustion of nervous energy" is untenable and that the concept ''neurasthenlia" covers great deal of incompetence and dishonesty. Decide for yourself who is incompetent and who is dishonest when "neurasthenia" is seriously of fered as g diagnosis. ,,%
 And nervous dyspepsia" or "nerv- ous indigestion" well, my desr chil- dren, I am not unrnindful of the fact that an emotional upset or shock may not only stop digestion in its tracks, SC. to speak, but reverse the process and put the meal right back where 1t was before you began eating. know, too,, that less eX- treme unpleasant emotion, such as constant irritation or annoyance, worry or anxiety. may retard and disturb digestion in any or all stages. If you will compromise with me and limit the term nervous dyspepsia" or nervous indigestion" to that, we needn't quarrel at all. But if you have a srnug notion that because eminent specialists of the past or present have been willing to ascribe any ailment they didn't quite under stand to nervous indigestion" count me out, for l insist that is sheer hooey. Tn the Nerves and Nutri- ton" book I endeavor to show that the actual trouble in a large number of cases labelled nervous indiges- ton" or nervous dyspspsia' is nu- tritional deficiency, particularly de- flciency of vitamin B complex. How common such nutritional deficiency is in this country today you may judge from the observation of Nor man Joliffe as quoted with approval by Prof. George R. Cowgirl in his recent report to the ANA Council on Foods on "The Need of the Addition of ,vitarnir' B1 to Staple American Foods: Said Jolliffe:

Is your dancing a series of ern- barrassing moments? Is 1t marked bycolloding knees, stepped-on-toes, apologies?
 So easily you can make your dancing a social asset. Practice at home with directions which show correct posture, smooth leading and following-with diagrams explain ing the steps.
 Colliding knees are usually the girls fault, the result of dancing directly in front of her partner. Correct for her to dance slightly to the side, looking over the the mans right shoulder.
 The girl can avoid stepped-on toes, too, by taking long backward steps. And, to be easy to lead, she should keep her weight on the balls of her feet instead of on her heels, should hold her arms up instead of letting them sag.
 The mans part? He holds the girl lightly but firmly, leads with a turn of his shoulders, pressure of arm or hand.
 And what a popular partner you are if you are up on smart steps. Learn them quickly from our 32- page booklet. Gives diagrams and directions for basic steps and varia- tions in the waltz, rumba. tango. Westchester, fox-trot and shag. Tells how to lead and follow, dance with grace and ease.
 Send 1Oc in coin for your copy of HOME COURSE IN NEW BALLROOM DANCES to The Wat erbury Democrat. Home Service, 635 sixth Ave, New York. N. Y. Be sure to write plainly your NAME ADDRESS. and the NAME of book let.

. MeKENNEY oN BRIDGE
Contract of Five Must Be Safe Before Warren No Trump
 Is Bid

This is, his sign-of bid is five clubs on one point or less, and for every extra point he makes the next higher possible bid.
 In today's hand, South knew North did not have much, for he could not bid freely over Vests overcall of two clubs, but when North showed a heart suit it seemed clear that at least five hearts could be made. If North had two kings, which would have to be in diamonds and clubs, 8 slam could be made. If North had two kings, which would have to be in diamonds and clubs, a slam could be made, for only the ace of spades would be lost. If North had the missing ace, the spade suit would be solid and North's losers in at least one of the monor suits could be discarded leaving at most one trick to be lost. But. if North had no more than one king the slam bid would be dangerous.
 South, therefore, bid four no trump to find out exactly what North held. North's flve-club re- sponse was not a cue-bid in the op- ponents' suit, but only a Sign-off showing that he had, at most, one king. South, therefore, contended himself with a contract of five hearts.
