now possible to do this, and new
born baby should be removed i'm
mediately from the mother if she
has tuberculosis, and reared apart
from her.
We should by all means give every
prospective mother the benefit of
a blood test and if positive for
syphilis, place her under intensive
treatment as early in pregnancy as
possible.
There are other conditions that
threaten the health of the mother
and the life of the unborn baby. Any
form of poisoning such as lead, mer-
curry, carbon monoxide etc., is es-
pscialy harmful. No drugs should
be taken during the pregnancy ex-
cept upon the prescription of ply
Sician.
Certain conditions known as the
toxaemia of pregnancy may come
on slowly and prove to be very SER
ious in their outcome. The danger
signs which usually manifest them
selves early Or late are such symp-
toms as nausea and persistent vom-
iting, dizziness, swelling of the hands
and face, and increased blood pres
sure and changes in the urine. #
these are observed early and
brought to the attention of the doc
tor, much may be done to prevent
serious complications.
Mothers with chronic disease OF
heart, kidneys or lungs are exposed
to special dangers during pregnancy.
They should receive extra attention
at the hands of their physicians.
Mothers suffering from any disorder
of the ductless glands such as dia-
betes ar thyroid disease need spec
ial treatment while carrying the
baby as these conditions may in
fluence its growth and development.
If the expectant mother is in the
hands of a competant physician
during pregnancy and follows his
directions implicitly, there is little
danger that she will fall into any
of the pitfalls mentioned in this
article. She will not only remain
healthy herself but she will give
birth to a normal, healthy baby.

Secretary of State Hull publicly
praised her the other day. 1t ap-
pears that Daisy's bridge-time
secret service was more efficient
than that of the Allies, for we
knew about the German invasion
of Scandinavia before the English
had returned from their long
weekend.
1t is peculiar about Daisy Har-
riman becoming such an excellent
envoy. Some years back she was
to society what Will Hays is to
the cinema today.
Cal Tinney tells the story of a
big laundry owner who arrived at
a society dinner hollering, Folks,
congratulate me! AT last I've ar
rived socially. Today 1 got the
sheets of Daisy Hartmann"
In 1892 as Democratic Nation
al Committee woman from the
District Of Columbia she fought
ROosevelts nomination. Well, Daisy
spent five years in political cOven-
try. She emerged from it when in
1887 she publicly upheld f. ID. r.
in his Supreme Court Bill.
You recall the Flint case, when
that particular American vessel
was caught in a Norwegian port
with a German crew in command.
Daisy Hartman was responsible
for getting her released. 1t is
claimed that in this case, Daisy
used language which was, shall
we say, not all together diplomatic.
Under modern Gay conditions
of communication the most i'm
portant duty of our ENJOYS is to
keep the State Department in
formed of developments even be-
fore they happen.
Our state department can justly
be proud of Daisy Hartman. We
do not have 70 look any farther in

we have to do is to employ her as

If Frances HUT Dewey should

gave up her career when young
Thomas E. Dewey persuaded her

If your hips are more than ten
inches larger than your small waist
line of which you are quite proud,
no doubt some special exercises to
reduce hip measurements are very
much in order.
If your waistline is less than
ten inches smaller than your hips
which seem to be about right, then
get busy with stretching exercises
designed especially to white down
the midriff.
In other words, if your waistline
measures u inches, your hipline
ought to measure 37-no more, no
less. If waist is 26, hips should be
So. According to all figure experts
in Hollywood studios, in New York
beauty salons and in the model
agencies, these proportions are
right.
Rolling exercises will do the
taking down the-hips job in record
time and without help or need OF
starvation diet. The stretching and
bending routines are recommended
for one who is determined to have
a slender waistline.
If you have plenty of space you
can roll over and over from one end
of the room to the other, keeping

Washing ton-The 1910 presiden-
tial campaign promises to be
one of the strangest ever . . on the
distaff side.
Contrary to all established
rules, the wives of several leading
contenders for nomination don't
want to be First Lady ard hope
their husbands will not go to the
White House in Al.
Frankest of them all is Mrs.
James Farley. Bess Farley makes
no secret of her resentment Of
Washington and the demands it
makes on her husbands time.
She dislikes New York, has con-
tinued to make her home there
throughout her husbands New
Deal service, and implies that a
chance to occupy the White House
is no inducement to her to move.
Mrs. Cordell Hull, wife of the
Secretary of State, likes Washing
ton well enough. Her disinclina-
ton TO be the next First Lady
is due to her cocnern over her
husbands health. She thinks he
is working too hard, ought to re-

the tulle-draped head of the girl
who is so afraid of being an old
maid that she grabs the first man
who asks her.
1t must seem possibility to the
girl who is marrying one man to
spite another.
1t must enter the mind OF the
girl who has worked and worked to
get her man, and suddenly realizes
when he is almost hers for keeps
that he isn't as big catch as she
imagined.
It must occur to the girl who is
marrying man twice her age be-
cause security looks good.
ARE YOU SURE
AT THE 18TH HOUR?
In way it is too bad that it
takes such courage for girl to run
away at the last minute and leave
her husband to-be standing at the
altar.
If it caused no more excitement
than a divorce, there might be fewer
marriages that last only a few
months.
For in that hour or two before
the wedding ceremony, many a girl
faces for the first time exactly how
she feels about the man she will
soon promise to love and honor.
