Old age is not only a vaacular question. It is question of your state of mind. You must know enough to obtain medical advice be- fore you are actually incapacitated.

 Tuberculosis
 Should young woman with tu berculosis be permitted to stay home? Neighbor who has it Is out side constantly and my four little sisters play in the yard, too.-(C. R)

Be&t thing for the young woman with tuberculosis, and for everyone who associates with her or lives with her, is few months sojourn in tuberculosis hospita, or sanatorium, where she will at least learn how to protect others from contracting Ter tuberculosis.

HETEROGENEOUS

Ateriosclerosis or caroiovascular disease begins in the intima-the in tina being the delicate lining or in- ner coat of the arteries which is constantly bathed in blood. If the blood contains 8 certain amount Of alcohol much of the time 1t is in- evitable that the delicate endothelial cells which chiefly compose the in- tina must suffer damage. Damage to these cells excites the middle coat of the artery or arteriole, composed mainly of involuntary muscle flores, to contract, and that raises blood pressure, etc.
 Alchool is of course not the only thing that may thus do harm to the intima and excite contraction or re- striction of the final distal or ter minal arterial branches. Tobacco is notorious for this or similar action as in Buerger's diseases, medically known as thromboangiitis obliterans. Most physicians insist the patient with this trouble in the legs stop smoking. Whether Dr. Buerger Cleo Buerger, M. D., Los AngeleS) himself permits patients to smoke at all, l do not Know. But we know that to- bacco smoke has this effect-it tends to constrict the arterioles. Most phy- sicians forbid patients with angina pectoris to smoke. Some physicians however, doubt that tobacco smoking is an important causative factor of CVD unless 1t is excessive, and per- init patients to indulge moderately, merely urging them to smoke thin rather than thick cigars, long-stem rather than short-stem pipe, after meals rather than before or during meals, slowly rather than fast, never while working or playing but only after relaxing.
 The very fact that old age. senility or CVD creeps upon the individual so gradually tends to encourage him to do nothing about it. As long as he feels pretty fair, even if he dis covers sometimes that he is no longer as young as he fondly imagined himself to be, he likes to believe there is no sense in spending his time or money for health examina- ton by his own doctor. Perhaps he Is abetted in this do-nothing course by passing a life insurance exami- nation--hc fails to consider that the life insurance examiner merely de- termines whether the applicant has any organic disease which might fin- ish him off before he has paid the insurance company enough to cover their bet. A health examination by his own doctor, on the other hand, determines how much health the client has, and measures the func- tional efficiency of his vital organs and appraises his personal hygiene and his living habits and gives him sound practical information or ad- vice which will help him to keep his machine in good running order. Even the first health check-up does that for the client. Then with his record on file, the succeeding per- iodic tests will show positively whe- ther he is growing old too fast or holding his own or even achieving some regeneration or retuvenation.

 There's a threefold appeal in some of the things now spread out in the cosmetics departments. These things will comfort you prettily, they're money savers, and they will serve you both during the heat of Indian summer and during coming cool weather.
 Leg makeup, big news of spring and summer, is stressed now for it's current significance. I'm told that college girls are supplying themselves literally with cos- metic stockings, with the expecta- ton of wearing them through the hot between-seasons days and right on through the fall. Doubt less other women will do like wise, for comfort, beauty and economy.
 As the maker of one creamy leg stick remarks, the waterproof cov- ering is smudgeproof in a shower, and conceals minor blemishes. This house introduces new quick de- pilatory for removing fuzz, before applying the stocking"
 Another new leg idea: seams" and heels" which are applied like decalcomania. You dampen the skin, hold thin transfer paper in place for a minute, and remove. Seam and heel are marked on to stay until they're washed off with soap.

all down the front. The neck was collarless and worn either open or closed high.
 Unlike most autumns, when play clothes seem 10 rgotten entirely, these fall fashion showings paid paid some attention to the sort of work or play clothes that women in many parts of the country like to wear all autumn ada some of the winter for around the-house doings
 Carrying out the theme of high colors, and lots of them, especially in daring combinations, the best of these new play clothes is the one Jane Wyatt modelled for the came7 ra after finishing her work in Army Surgeon" Of crease resist ant rayon, the tops and shorts were all in one piece of autumn-leaf yell low with Set-in trim of red, out lined in quaint loop-fringe of green yarn. Over it was dirndl skirt that buttoned down the front.

Here are some pointers issued by Ehe Bureau of Home Economics to prevent food waste:
 Milk: don't let milk stand out. Keep 1t in the colder part of the refrigerator. When cooking, take out only milk and cream needed and let the rest stay cold. Don't pour leftover milk back into the main supply Put away milk the nrst thing after each meal. Keep odorous foods fish, onions, cab page, melons, etc, away from milk. Use suds and sun on all milk containers. Scald often.
 Store dried milk in the refrig- orator for better keeping. Also opened cans of evaporated and condensed milk.
 Cheese: cold and covered are the watchwords for cheese. Use cottage and other soft cheeses quickly, for they spoil soon. Hard, cured cheese, well wrapped, may be kept longer.
 Eggs: Wipe of solled spots on

LOLLIPOPS AND MITTS JOIN BATHING KIT

A lollipop of dusting powder brought out by noted house for hot weather comfort and charm, is making talk among the campus bound customers.
 The big round terry-cloth puff, on wooden stick, is done in six color combinations, white with red or blue or green trim, rose with touch of white, turquoise with white, yellow with white Using this minimiZes talc-waste.
 Another economical bath idea .is a new, either-hand soap mitt. It's washable and reliable. The gen. erous soap bag, which fits into a pouch in the center of the mitt, can Ee bought separately. With mitt you use every scrap of your soap, without any smudge-chasing de- lays.

Red is the hottest new color brilliant, screaming scarlet, with minor variations on the red theme that lead into coral and pink. Next in line comes emphasis on black, and black and red com bined. New, too, are the undyed, natural colors used "a sort of grayed beige that is almost uni- versally becoming. And, for eve ming, the natural becomes sun tan," a warmer beige like cafe au-lait
 The practical touch is felt two ways-in styling (wherein class ics lead in fabrics. Wool has almost disappeared, but for warmth, 1t will hardly be missed with the myriads of new velveteens-cut and uncut-and corduroys of all wales, with stress on the widest.
 Rayon and other synthetics are tops for dressier clothes with spun ravens to take your breath away. Again, wearability, long-lasting- ness come to the fore with these exciting fabrics.

CLASSIC NOTE IN SUIT STYLES

Classic suits, for which California is famed, made up large portion of the showings. Classic slack suits were next in number, with novel vest fronts, often in contrasting col ors, or yokes, also entrusted. Man tailored steel-gray slacks, like the ones Lucille Ball, star of Sweet or Hot, chose, are as cuffless as any mans, as sleekly fashioned, and have the fashionable fly front. Lu- cille's shirt was navy checked in white.
 Next to suits, variations on the classic shirtmaker were highlighted. An excellent illustration of this trend was the one that Ginny Simms, the singing star of Here We Go Again" bought the minute she saw it. Of natural, undged rab- bit hair fabric, 1t was bonc-buttoned
