 How?
 I'll tell you what I've decided to do about 1t and why. Maybe the "why" of my personal inventory of beauty for l942 will help you make yours.
 Well, first in general:
 shall cheerfully do without any or all instruments of beauty if, as, and when Uncle Sam asks me to. I'll waste none, hoard none, rue none--and that's a strictly .self-ln- rterested vie%point. For one thing, I value my safety above my scent. And I always wonder whether the i1oarded thing inaynt be replaced, while hoarded, by a substitute that's superior. It's more obvious now. hut long before Pearl Harbor we knew that either Q woman is superior to her decorations or she's their slave.
 While beauty stuff is around. of course I shall use 1t. My beauty taxes and yours are supposed to put from S35, 100000 to $45 000, 900 in the till this year-quite a few warships. And beauty stuff will be around, longer and more abundantly than you might expect.

IODINE AND CALCIUM IN
 RHEUMATISM

IODINE AND CALCIUM IN
 REEEUMATISM
 From away back KI (potassiui1i iodide, iodide of potash) has been favorlte remedy for the assortment of chronic aches, pains and lafne- nesses commonly called "rheunlas tism." I use the term rheumatism" reluctantly, because it has no defi- Yiite meaning, that is, there Is no specific disease physicians recog- nize as chronic rheumatism. If Q physician ascribes a pateint's cofIl- plaint or disability to "chronic rheumatism" the physician is dcdg- ing the effort to diagnose the trouble to determine what really ais the patient.
 Probably . considerable number of lay readers will feel more iSl- clined to dispute what I say about rilemuatism than will physicians. When c layman has the rheumatic you can seldom do more than aIl- noy or irritate him by telling him there is no such disease. He is pretty certain to reply, in thought If net L1 words, that he doesfi't care what you please to call it, oE give it any fancy names you like, rheumatism is good enough for him. " 'fe
 The Idea ,oErrheumatism is close ly associated with exposure to cold and damp, change of weather, this bad climate and most of the seasons Of the year. That. 1s natural, for 4 Is the theory aYld principle on which medical practice has been based fos generations. stit, 1t can no longeI pass muster, and that's that.
 After all, 1t Is hardly suficient to reason or assume that because heat, warmth, sunlight or rest gives relief to ache, pain, laTneness os dis- ability, the disability must have been caused by cold, cloudy weather CT exercise or ordinary use of the limb. Yet that is all there is in the FheuInatism Oasessiofl.
 One can only SurmIse that the use of KI CT other dodldeS CT iodine itself as 6 remedy for the iliS called rheumatism grew out of the ancient cIaSsiflcatiofl of iodine and iodides as "aiteratives"-that is, remedies causing 6 change In the condition or functions of the body, change os q morbid state into 6 heaithies state.
