the loving that you are forcing on
him. He admires your loving nature
but there are times in all couples
lives that they must think of some
thing else besides making love.
He will become adapted to mar
ried life in a few months time.
L. NJ. x: My little daughter is
very talented in singing and dane
ing. For five years l have known
this and have managed to save so
she can take lessons. Is this fall
a good time for me to carry her
into the city to live so l can see
that she gets this training?
Ans: The time seems ripe right
now. She is old enough to be
taught both and since you have
the money saved to begin her
studies carry out your plans.
Go into Chicago as you do not
want to get too far away from
your immediate family unless
necessary. Your divorced husband
will want to do more for this child
when he sees her there in Chicago.
M. H. F.: Tell me Sir if l should
quit the present job that 1 have
right now or hold on until 1 can
find something else.
Ans: At this writing you can't
afford to quit continue on so
that you can be of financial help
to your sick daughter. The job
you have isn't much, and l advise
you to look around for something
else. See that you register at the
agencies, also run ads in the
papers.
NJ. N: 1 will look in the paper
very soon for an answer to my
problem. Tell me why the man I
love has changed so suddenly and
will he ever act like he used to
act?
Ans: The man resents the way
you are chasing him down and
doesn't think much, of the secret
love letters" you have been writ
ing him either. Personally, he isn't
in love with you and is just now
beginning to realize this fact for
himself.

Machine of 1000 Cures
Amazes Skeptical Judge

An amazed circuit court judge in
Indianapolis recently heard teStimo-
ny about and saw a strange ma
chine which witnesses said could
cure" badness, locate oil wells
and make a long distance diagnosis
of Adolf Hitler.
The testimony was presented be-
fore Judge Herbert E. Wilson in a
suit of DR.. He'll Eugene Crum, Indi-
annapolis, seeking reversal of an or
der Of the state board Of medical
registration which revoked his IL
cense as 'druglesS" physician aft
er Crum had advertised claims for
the machine.
Testimony was vague on the me-
chanics of the machine-nown as a
"coetherator"-but Crum was def
mite in claims that it could deter
mine the sex of unborn children,
eradicate weeds, lengthen legs, fer
tilize fields, sound for oil and "cure
diseases, including cancer and tu-
berculosis."
He testified he had treated more
than 1000 patients with the machine
and had failed in not more than six
cases.
The machine is a wooden box with
portfolios covered with colored pa
per. 1t contains an electric light
bulb, controlled by dial. and tube
of chemicals.
HieronymuS said the machine was
based on the science Of "etheron-
ics," science of gnosing human
ailments through tuning in on the
vibrations Of a human. He said he
had experimental and found dag.
nosis could be made by having the
subject place an unexposed photo
graphic negative on his head and
concentrate on symbol in a dark
room.
If the subject concentrates
enough the symbol will appear on
the negative when it is developed, "
he said.
Such a diagnosis could be accom-
plished at long distances, he said,
and, as an example, said such a
diagnosis could be made even of
Adolf Hitler.

time soon and would / be con-
sidered for the job with her? Ad-
wise me what to do.
Ans: The lady in question is
mentioning in the west and by

more months.
w. NJ: Please tell me what to

disappeared and he doesn't know
what to do. How must he get
another?
Ans: He must report the loss to

license as it is time for all licenses

if am going to be able to get
out into a house to myself or not.
Ans: Really you must get job
and help your husband until you

of your own. He doesn't expect
you to work regularly, but if you
want the things he can't afford
for you, it is up to you to help

Baby Death Rate Drops
One-Fifth in Five Years

Each year about 1000, 600 babies
are born in the United States. One
fact revealed in a report about them
is that during the five years from
1894 to 1889 our baby death rate
dropped 20 per cent.
Even at that, some so, 900 babies
died between the second and twelfth
month of their lives end. sad to say.
many of them could have been
saved. There has been little or no
decline in the death rate Of babies
from one day to one month old, and
there are still $4,000 stillbirths ev-
cry year.
Under the social security act, ap-
proximately 100000 children benefit
from the program giving aid to de-
pendent children. Because of the
acceptance of responsibility for our
children by the government agen-
cies during the depression, some
5000, 900 children are at the present
time receiving economic aid in their
homes.
Surgeon-General Thomas F. Par
ran of the U. S. public health serv-
ice, in his report, states:
New horizons are ahead Of US in
the attainment Of national health.
New knowledge and surer weapons

better health Of our children and, as

ica."
