replaces Are What You Make Them Through Use and Good Equipment
Dorothy Dix Says .>>
Women Should Alter Their Points
OF View ON Clothes Situation

One of the things about which
there has been bitter debate ever
since Mother Eve made the first
skirt out of fig leaves is whether
women dress to please themselves,
to make other women envious or to
allure men. No decision has ever
been reached on the subject. be-
cause II women know they won't
tell and If men know they have
found that discretion is the better
part of valor and that 1t is never
safe to criticize woman's clothes.
1t is anybody's fight either way. The
theory that women dress to please
themselves and without any regard
for the esthetic sensibilities of others
is borne out by the fact that so
few Of them seem to take their
own faces or figures into considera-
ton when they assemble their ward
robes. Apparently they purchase
their dresses and hats without Civ
ing thought to whether they will
make them look like figures of fun
or living pictures. Hence we daily
behold the spectacle of tall, skinny
women dressed in stripes, while
their chubby sisters seemingly add to
their poundage by diking them
selves out in plaids and frills;
women with saleratus biscuit COM
plexions crown themselves in pale
green headgear. grandma blithely
dons girlie-girlie frocks and women
with tired, worn, wrinkled faces
emphasize every defect and call
attention to their crows feet by
smothering themselves in infantile
pinks and blues.
Whether these women have a su-
perhuman vanity that makes them
think that they are so beautiful that
they can wear anything, or whether
they are cursed with an inferiority
complex that makes them so des-
| perate that they feel that nothing
is going to improve their looks so
they might as well indulge their
fancy for pretties. Is matter Of
conjecture. Anyway, there are the
millions of women who look as if
WoI OF ciiCihy lldO
clothes for them. yet they seem
happy and cheerful. Interpret the
| situation as you will.
The contention that women dress
for other women has much strong
evidence to back it up because
women know that their sisters Judge
them by their clothes and that
after giving them one appraising
glance they know whether their fur
collars are real ermine or white cat
and whether their coats are this
years vintage or last.
Also. they know that, while women
may respect the intellect of a
woman genius who is sloppily
dressed, they stand in awe and
reverence before a woman who
knows what to buy and how to
wear it.
OF course, the prevailing belief is

the polish. If polish runs into the
cuticle. don't dab around with an
orange stick: remove all the polish
and start over again.
While Juliette is in town. she's

advice. The color is a somewhat

Above all, stop in and have a chat

famous question, Are those nails
real?" They are. no fooling.

Old?
By Josephine Lowm an

y USt phBbh
No matter how well you feel, how
old you are. how much or how little
money you have, as soon as you find
that you are two instead Of one put
yourself in the hands of a competent
physician and see him at regular
intervals throughout the nine
months.
If you can afford it see your own
doctor; II you can't. 60 to q clinic
If you live in the country take the
necessary trip to the nearest doctor.
I always hesitate to present the idea
of danger to the prospective mother
because 1t may alarm her, but it Is
q tragic fact that women are lost
every year because of neglect.
Surveys have shown that the large
majority Of these deaths could have
been prevented by proper prenatal
care, and In spite Of all that has
been said on this subject q recent
issue of the American Journal of
Public Health says that still only a
small percentage of expectant
mothers receive any kind of pre-
natal care, and that even a smaller
percentage receive care that could
be called adequate.
Therefore. let me remind you that
you should be under q doctors care
constantly, that most Of the danger
Gus conditions which arise late In
pregnancy could be discovered
earlier and controlled.
Also remember this: When you
put yourself in the hands of a
physician you have cut the chance
Of danger to yourself 30 low that you
have no reason to consider 1T at all.
Don't let timidity or small
budget, or the ideas of friends, or
the fact that you feel well, make
you delay in this vital part of the
pregnant voman's routine.

Appendicitis

Bv Letfics Lee Street,

Seven-year- -old Jane Hstlessly left
most Of her luncheon on the plate,
and even though she brightly denied
that she felt badly, she walked up
to her room with obvious effort and
there her mother found her lying
on the bed. crying. This was most
unusual behavior for Jane, who was
generally in sunny spirits and for
ever on tiptoes to run and play.
Moreover, the child hated to stay in
bed, and she would hide any feeling
OF sickness from her mother for as
long as she could endure it.
Knowing all this, her mother
eyed Jane with apprehension. and
sitting down by the child, she asked,
What Is the matter, dear?"
Hugging her tummy in pain, Jane
gave up pretending, and buryins
her head in her mothers lap. she
whimpered, "Oh, Mummie, I've got
such a terrible bad pain in my
tummy!"
We'll. well soon fix that, honey"
answered her mother in a brisk but
sympathetic voice, whereupon Jane
started to cry In good earnest. She
knew full well what was coming
an enema and medicine, too.
That afternoon an ambulance
shrieked through the streets of the
town bearing little Jane, with a
ruptured appendix, to the hospital
Although rarely, even babies may
have appendicitis. and it occurs not
infrequently among older children
The things all parents should know
about this condition that claims an
unnecessary number of lives each
year are not hard to remember
Nor should these facts be frighten-
ing to learn. knowledge of the
truth is one Of your greatest forti-
flcations against what can be a fatal
sickness. Where appendicitis is
concerned ignorance Is not only not
bliss, but 1t can mean death as well
The symptoms may vary, but
usually the child will vomit. COM
plain of severe general abdominal
pain which is later localized over
the right side, and the abdomen will
be hard and tender to the touch.
Sometimes the pain is not localized
or the child will not vomit, but ap-
pendicitis may be present Just the
same. A doctor is positively the
only person who can be depended
upon to decide if the child has ap-
pendicitis or not.
Parents should never attempt to
make a diagnosis or dismiss violent
abdominal pain as a simple stomach
ache. Remember. too, that a child
may say that he has a tummy-ache
when in reality his lower abdomen
is the painful region.
When a child has severe pain no
food, enemas or medicine should be
given until the doctor arrives. In
the event Of appendicitis, it is OF
paramount importance not to irrd
tate the intestines. ToTdo so ma +,
cause a rupture, as in the case of
poor little Jane.
The doctor should be called With
out delay. This is no. time to wait
and see or to think about saving
money If you want to save your
child.
II the physician diagnoses the
trouble as appendicitis and advise.
an operation, do not demur OF
argue. but say. Yes, siri" as quickly
as you can get the words out OF
your mouth.
A simple appendectomy is an easy
speedy operation for the skilled sur
geon to perform. It requires only
a small incision nowadays and the
patient recuperates quickly unless
complications develop.

Fresh Bread

When only very fresh bread Is
available for sandwiches, chill the
bread as long as possible in the re-
frigerator. Then use a sharp knife
to cut thin slices. 1t is best to spread

the butter serves as coating and
prevents the filling from soaking
into the bread. Soften butter used
for sandwiches by creaming it with
a fork. Melting the butter makes

craftsmanship and three new mem
