Plastic Forms
.Show Figure
Defects
BY IDA JEAN KAN

NOW THAT the use of
thermoplastic dress forms makes
1T possible 10 reproduce the in
dividual feminine figure exactly
as II is, women are taking a
hasty glance at their forms and
are dashing out 10 buy better
foundation garments. And I
predict that many Of them will
go even further and take exer-
else seriously.
This and similar data comes
to us courtesy of the Their
molaStic experts. headed by
Miss Katherine Selby, who have
nodded thousands of the plastic
forms.
The plastic remains rigid at
ordinary temperature. But when
heated 10 few degrees above

nit them 10 be decoratively

and in good taste.

Better Figures

Although the individuallzed
forms are designed 10 make
dresses III better, the final re-
suits will probably be that there
are better figures 70 ~ also To
get good clear view Of your
figure faults IS 20 want TO correct
them.
One Of the most recurrent
Afigure problems about the coun-
Dry is the raised shoulder. with
THE hip thrown out Of alignment.
This is really posture problem
resulting from the tendency 70
stand with too much weight on
one foot. One Of the first steps
toward correction is The de-
termlned practice of standing

mend quinine as c preventive or cri. that bourbon whis'key Is the proper vehicle, as I do not live In Kentucky. But quinine was taken in whiskey all over Kentucky as preventive of cold before was born or cri was ever heard Of.
 I'll be hanged If I'll say any such thing On the contrary, 1t IS my honest opinion that any benefit one may derive from the use of quinine as Q prophylactic against the flu, cri GOT "coltls' to you) that is, taking two grains of quinine sul- fate in capsule, pill or tablet, three times q day after food for o period of several weeks when the disease Is prevalent or epidemic -- Is more than nullihed by alcoholic liquor of any description.
 The editorial writer may have contributed the bourbon facetious- 1 ly, but there are Q good many mis- guided folk who seriously believe alcoholic intoXication Is helpful in fighting such illness. No medical authority sanctions that idea. NO l kuuIlUdTtI VGAJbVth VA WhSaeirSessS" or practice even mentions whiskey or other liquor among the numer- ous remedies recommended in the treatment of acute respiratory in. fections. No physician of standing prescribes alcohol In such cases.
 It cannot be too efnphatically stated that the weight of present day medical authority, established by both scientific theory and wide experience, is overwhelmingly against the use of alcohol in the prevention or treatment of cri or any other acute infections disease. Indeed 1t Is universally recognized that one who develops serious respiratory infection sluch as pneu- monia, influenza, dtphtheria or meningitis reacts less effectively to the invasion under the benumbing influence of alcohol than he would If his internal conditioned fefiexes were not so inactive. It should be significant to the inquirer of open mind that in a hospital where a thousand or more pneumonia cases are treated in year no liquor is prescribed by the attending physi- clans,
