WE. THE WOMEN.

isn't polite to stir coffee vigorously enough to keep the sugar from set ting in the bottom but now that so many restaurants have little signs saying Stir like H." in their sugar bowls, Mama and Papa aren't quite as strict about this point as they used to be.
 Then there are Mama's feelings, which get hurt if anyone turns down dessert after she has gone to the work of making it and turned cut a work of art. So, dessert is always accepted even though it makes person feel uncomfortably stuffed, or, even though it can't be more than half eaten.
 Washington tells us that the food habits of a nation are going to be changed. They might not have to be changed quite so dras- tically if we got busy and revised our ideas of good table manners enough to make the wasting of food sign of bad manners rather than of gentility The Jack Spratt family might not have followed the rules of etiquette-but Uncle Same wouldn't mind if we were a nation of Jack Spratts at least for the duration.

 o. How much should dozen best grade eggs weigh when bought at ceiling" prices?
 A. At least A ounces to the dozen. Consumers should insist on proper sized eggs or lower prices for smaller eggs.

 A. After he has a tooth II the commercial zwiebeck is used, 1t IS better to use the unsWeetened kind. Q. Please tell me how to use left over cooked corn in corn cakes.

 o. How can one determine whether material is linen or cotton? Some of the very fine cottons very much resemble linen.
 A. To distinguish between linen and cotton is not easy in many in- stances. Since threads from the two burn much alike. the burning test" is not satisfactory. They can, however, sometimes be distinguished by the "break test" Ravel out yarn and break it. An all-cotton yarn breaks with a brushy end; and untrsated, all-linen yarn, breaks with a pointed end Linen yarns that have had a special finish may have fluffy break similar to a ] wool yarn.

RESISTANCE OR IMMUNITY?

hSA1OA0 1AANSA OAk 1ANAAVA OANA A T
 Everybody has some idea of what immunity means. It is the protec- ton against diphtheria conferred upon your child, preferably before the child is 2k years old, certainly before the child is old enough to attend nursery school or kindergar- ten. The immunity is conferred by an injection of toxoid by the fam fly physician, and it requires per- haps two to three months to de- velop, following administration of the single dose of toxoid.
 Then there is the immunity against typhoid fever conferred by two or three weekly injections of typho-bacterin by the physician. This immunity, too. requires two months or more to develop fully, so that it is necessary to have the shots" two months before the ex- posture occurs, in order to enjoy the full protection against typhoid fever.
 The immunity conferred by one or more hypodermic injections of antitoxin is probably developed within few days after the anti toxin is administered, whether it be diphtheria antitoxin or tetanus an- titoxin, but this type of immunity is of short duration, only sufficient to aid or protect for the duration of the attack or for the few weeks in which the attack of diphtheria or lockjaw may occur. It does not necessarily last much longer.
 In all known types of immunity, certainly in all natural acquired im- munity, the development of the i'm munity takes many weeks or even months. And so far as we know it takes many weeks or months to lose naturally acquired immunity, once it has developed. Natural im- munity is the type of immunity ac- quired by having an attack of the disease - it accounts for the well known non susceptibility to sec ond attack of the same disease - be it smallpox or whooping cough.
 When we speak of resistance" instead of immunity, then we never know just what we are talking about. No one, so far as can learn has defined resistance" so that it may be distinguished from immunity. And neither has any scientific authority shown how any, body can determine in any instance whether an individual has resist ance" against illness in general or specific illness in particular. On the other hand, any physician can determine positively, by the Schick test, whether an individual has im- munity against diphtheria.
 So, unless I am bewildered by scientific literature bearing on the question, it seems to me that I am within my proper province when l indulge in a hearty chuckle at the solemn geezer who declares with such fervor that his resistance" is certainly lowered when he gets his feet wet, sits in a draft, or under goes exposure to sudden change of weather, for he nearly always takes "cold" under such circum- stances.

FORMAL WINDOWS

For a formal window treatment, let simplicity of design and dignity of material strike the keynotes. Use sheer. lovely materials for glass cur tains under rich, deep-toned drapery fabrics cut full and long so that they hang in deep, gracemui ioids. A deep thick fringe in matching or harmonizing color attached to a wooden cornice at the top Of the windw Is simply effective; tiers Of narrow fringe stitched to 8 firm cloth backing hung from the wooden cornice. Don't skimp on curtain ma teriols. Curtains just few inches tnn gnort or too scant. no matter
 beautiful the materials of i.lcl they are made, will throw an entire decor out of balance.

BY WILLIAM E. MCKINNEY Americas Card Authority

Norman Perlstein of Los Angeles, one of the outstanding players of the Pacific coast, dropped into my office in New York recently. He gave me the interesting defensive hand shown today, which he played in a recent rubber tournament.
 Declarer let the king of diamonds hold the first trick. East led & trump. South then led club and East correctly let the queen win. The diamond was led to the ace and South ruffed, out his third diamond. Then he took out trumpS, discard ing a spade from dummy.
 Next he led the other club. When Perlstein, sitting West, produced the ten instead of the ace, declarer ducked and Perlstein held the trick.
 At this point Perlstein led the king of spades. He saw that if he led low, or if declarer were left to develop the spades, the nine-spot finesse would be the normal play and would make the contract. The best defensive chance was for West to lead the king, as though he held the king-queen. The play worked, for the declarer held off, and then he was beaten.

Obesity Like Immunity
