No other one thing in the world

They think that spatting is an
inevitable part of marriage and that
there is no cure for it. But there is

blistering days is either the simple
shirtwaist or the tailored suit, of
cotton or similar fabrics. We're
really enthusiastic about summer
suits, especially those being shown
at the moment. for they have a
delicacy of detail and style, as well
as a realization of important fea-
lures, such as Washability and
crease resistance.
Most popular suits are those with
pleated skirts and longer jackets
with either short or long sleeves.
Most of the short-sleeved suits may
be worn with a blouse or without
one, If you prefer it to look like a
two-piece dress. Many of the neck
lines are convertible for this same
reason-thus enabling you TO snap
them up close and skip a blouse, or
wear a short-sleeved shirt and let

the blouse idea for Office wear, for
you can remove your jacket to be
more comfortable, and at the same
time look more freshly turned out
when you don it at the end of the
day.
The great majority of jackets seem
to feature a long torso line and may
have such details as patch or but

All men and women who get mar
ried know that they are undertak-
ing the most important ventures of
their whole lives, and that on the
way it turns out depends their hap
piness or misery. They know that
whether marriage is a heaven on
earth, or a purgatory, depends upon
whether a husband and wife dwell
together in peace and harmony, or
whether they live a cat and dog
life, fighting and snarling at each
other.
This being the case, is it not
strange that so few married couples
make any intelligent effort to get
along with each other, or use any
of the tactics in trying to make
their marriages a success that they
would employ in attempting to make
a go of a profession or a business
enterprise? They don't, you know
They trust their marriages to luck
and feel that whether they get a
divorce in two years, or celebrate
their golden wedding so years hence,
is a matter on the knees of the
gods, with which they have moth
ing to do. Which, of course, is all
nonsense.
Marriage isn't just romantic
dream. 1t is mostly a business
proposition and the same technique
that makes a green grocery prosper
would make a marriage happy if
applied to it. We speak, for in
stance, of marriage as partnership.
II it were a partnership in reality,
where husband and wife put all
they had of heart and brain and
back into making the firm of Bene-
dict & Co. a success, there would be
few matrimonial bankruptcies. 1t is
the husbands and wives who work
shoulder to shoulder for the same
ends, who have everything in COM
mon, who share equally in the pleas
ures and perquisrteS of life, who
grow rich in money and happiness.
1t is the husbands and wives who
do not do teamwork, who each self
iShly try to grab the best of every
thing for themselves, who double
cross each other, who fail.
The use of politeness in the home
would go as far toward promoting

twisted about the light source carry
a shaft of light to the base of the
lamp. From across the room the
whole piece makes bright, decora-
tive note, and for light when you
need it the tube casts glow straight
down TO the writing surface.
The two tall lamps are ideal for
side wall situations where their
use is mainly decorative. The coils
of lucite turned and twisted are
most attractive and the heavy metal
bases give a sturdy quality to the
fragile plastic shaft. The tripod
lamp would look well on a large
table, and its height makes it per-
feet as a reading lamp. With all
your favorite magazines spread out
at its base, it will provide an invi-
tation to a quiet evening at home
when the warm weather comes.
The tables are a combination of
hcite and plate glass. Luclte may
be scratched, and objects being
pushed back and forth on a table
top would leave marks which would
have to be professionally polished to
be removed. For this reason, table
tops and any surface needing con-
slant cleaning and rubbing is made
of plate glass. The narrow bands
used to bind the base Of the three
legged table are of pleXiglass-an-
other plastic which may be bent
and woven like cane.
The possibilities of plastic mate
rials are infinite, and it is most
gratifying that the new products on
the market are so we'll designed that
they are true objects of art, worthy
of a place of honor in a tastefully
furnished house, rather than just
passing fad or fancy. Small tables
and lamps as well as other acces-
sories are now priced for the aver
age budget, taking their place in
design and price with other fine
furnishings.
Be especially careful in selecting
shades for your plastic lamps, for
you must find ones that are har-
monious with the base in shape and
size. Try them both lighted and
unlighted. The fragile effect of the
glasslike base makes clumsy lamp

Milk Is Not
Complete
Food
Other Items Needed
To Round Out
Baby's Diet
By Lettice Lee Street,

y 1CtEttC ICc ofs
Recently a young mother came
to me very much concerned and
upset because she said that she
had lost faith in her pediatrician
She said that he told her that milk
was not a complete food for her
little baby.
This is not true is it, Mrs
Streett?" she queried, and I re-
piled that yes, indeed, it was true
Her doctor was right, of course.
Right here and now let us talk
about people who think they know
more than their doctors do. Such
people remember vast number OF
half-truths; they continually ask
advice of any one and every one anc
have no real faith in those with
whom they talk.
1t is never wise for a laymar
to dispute the statement of doctor
He has been trained for years and
years in a complicated science that
we have never studied.
In selecting a pediatrician parents
| should be sure, of course, that he
| is a physician in good standing
Then if we do not abide by his
advice we are only cheating our
selves, and when this foolish action
involves our helpless babies We may
do real harm.
If the doctor you have chosen
proves to have a personality that
irritates you, by all means find
another man whom you like, and
with whom you can talk without
embarrassment or hesitation.
What started this TRADE was the
subject of the value of milk as a
food! 1t is an excellent food, con-
tanning all the necessary elements
for proper nutrition except one,
which is iron. Iron is present in
both cows and mothers milk, but
in such small quantities as to be
insufficient. Therefore, if an adult
or a child should live on milk alone
he would develop anemia.
Apparently infants are born with
superabundance of iron which
lasts quite a long time. When a
baby is old enough to eat green
vegetables and egg yolk he should
do so because from them he will
receive enough iron to start storing
the quantity of this mineral which
is necessary for his proper growth.
There is vitamin C in milk. as we
know, but when milk is paSteuriZed
heated or proceSsed in any way a
part of the vitamin c is lost. Orange
juice is very high in this vitamin
and therefore 1t is given to babies
early in life to supplement that
which is not present in sufficient
quantities in the milk.
Vitamin D is also found in milk.
but its quantity cannot be depended
upon. Therefore. your baby should
be given cod liver oil in winter and
sun baths in summer.
1rradiated milk is that which has
been exposed to ultraviolet rays
and thus develops vitamin D. the
popularly named sunshine" vita
min that is so vital to a baby's
development. Without sufficient
quantities of it baby may suffer
from rickets.
When your doctor tells you to
give your baby foods in addition to
milk, do so without any argument
SO that you shall raise a sturdy,
rosy-cheeked little boy or girl.

NOteWriting
Follows No
Set Rule
Personal Choice
Governs Order
Of the Pages
By Emily Post

In answer to the letter asking me,
"What is the best sequence to fol-
low for turning the pages when writ
ing a letter on a four sided sheet
of letter paper?" there is no fixed
rule. If a note is longer than the
first side, the fourth is preferred as
page two, with writing going the
same Way as across page one. But
if the paper is thin and the en-
velope not lined. one then writes
on the third side since this leaves
the fourth side blank and prevents
the writing from showing through
the envelope. If the letter runs
more than two sides, then the sec
ond side is used for this, with the
paper turned so that the lines OF
writing run the long way. And then,
if after all one writes a fourth side,
one continues writing with paper
turned sideways.
Old fashioned people usually con-
tinue like the pages of book and
this is entirely proper. Personally
I always write on the first side, then
I go to side four, and then across
three and two as though the right
side of three were the top of a
page of typeWriting paper. But l
have no reason for this except that
I like writing on the front and back
of the little packet of paper better
than opening it until I have to-
There is really no more reason"
than that.
Dear Mrs. Post: From which
side are plates removed from the
table? My understanding has al
ways been that they we're put down
at the left, but removed from the
right, but my strong minded maid
contends that they should be put
down and removed from the same
side.
Answer-Your maid is right. She
must proffer serving dish at the
left, of course, and she puts the
plates down and takes them away
at the left, if possible. But should
the table be very crowded so that,
let us say, at the ends it would be
easier to place and remove plates
from the right, then it is considered
quite proper to do what is practical.
