A LADY NEVER LIES

I am in my 69th year and have always maintained that any old gal that dyes her hair when she gets to be my age is fool. Well, my locks were rapidly becoming 8 nice grey when I began taking the Todin Ra- ton as directed in your pamphlet. When I had been taking it for about year, 10 and behold, the grey hair began to get back some of its original copper shade. So now l have an old wrinkled face or face of my age, with what everybody believes to be dyed hair. So what? feel fine, take care of 500 cases a month in my professional work, but-the dyed" hair-I blame that on or Doc Brady. Thanking you so much. (Mrs.------)
 T swan. For twenty-eight years -heh-heh-readers have been telling me stories like that. For twenty-eight years have been hop ing to see for myself a case in which actual restoration of the orig inal natural color to hair that has already turned gray occurs when the individual takes suitable daily or weekly ration of iodine.
 From personal experience and observation I do believe that an ade- quate intake of iodine in one form or another, year in and year out, re- tards or postpones graying of the hair. But restoration of the natur- al color to hair that has really turn ed grey, is not so easy to believe.
 One who is feeling chronically weary, stale and rather melancholic as mature adults with iodine defi- ciency often do feel-iS likely to see more grey in his or her own hair than he or she sees when the gen. eral conditions is improved by few weeks of the Iodin Ration. Then he or she sees rather the amount of hair that still retains more or less pristine or youthful appearance.
 I know suitable daily or week ly intake of iodine does dispel the pensive or gloomy spirit commonly shown by children, particularly girls in their teens and by adults of ma ture age who are deficient in iodine, whether they show signs of goltre or not
 The nutrition authorities at pres ent estimate that every person over one year of age requires nto less than one-tenth of one milligram of iodine daily. I dare not say to what amount of tincture' of iodine that is equivalent, but it is approximately 1-50Oth of a grain of iodine, perhaps as much as you would get in a drop of the tincture two or three times a week.
 On request, accompanied with stamped envelope bearing your ad- dress, I will mail Instructions for Taking an Iodine Ration"

BY WILLIAM E. MCKINNEY Americas Card Authority

Tournament players are now travelling to and from tournaments by train, and they seem to get lot of foun out of it, especially on the return trip when all the hands are replayed over and over again.
 Here is hand on which the de- clarer miscounted the clubs. The king of clubs forced the ace and a trump came back. East led the ten of clubs. Dummy won and led a heart. The jack forced the ace and East led the nine of clubs, which North ruffed. The nine of hearts was ruffed out, then North led all his trumpS for squeeze.
 East could count the hand ex- actly, since North obviously had no more losing hearts. Guessing that North had the diamond queen, East let go his last club at the first op- portunity. Then when the last trump came out he had heart to discard. Thinking that East must now hold one club and one diamond declarer let go the three of clubs, saving the two diamonds on the chance that East's singleton was the king.

BECOME BORED EVEN HUSBANDS

She says of her married friends:
 "All we do is bore each other to death-simply because we can't for get our jobs when we are trying to play"
 There is something to the young woman's complaint -. as anyone knows who spends much time in the company of mothers of young children.
 If the conversation isn't on for- mulas-it is on the difficulty of copying with this or that behavior problem. And, as the women tell it. it is all pretty dreary. Not one mother in hundred has the wit to make child talk amusing - or even faintly interesting.
 But they can't seem to turn their conversation toward . ny other topic for long. Not even if their husbands are in the crowd and are obviously bored.
 Because they can't get their minds off their homes and families even for a few hours at time. they forfeit their opportunities to relax completely, to listen and join in good, stimulating talk, and to add to their knowledge of some subject other than homemaking and child care.
 It's why so many fine, respon- sible, hard-working mothers grow less interesting every year.

 Camouflage Netter
 I am 16, working as netter on a camouflage net. For some reason I do not know they make us wear masks when at work. Have heard people say you get tuberculosis. Sev- eral months ago, in school, had a positive reaction to tuberculosis test (K. M)
 Answer-I do not know why you have to wear gauge mask over nose and mouth unless it is just a pre- caution against spread of everyday respiratory infections from one work CT to another. Any boy or girl who has shown 8 positive reaction tc skin tuberculin test should under go a carefule examination by the doctor every three months to make sure no lung tuberculosis is devel- oping. If possible such examination should include X-ray of chest.
 I0dinO
 Even slightest tasNe of iodine is repugnant to me, but I'd like to take your Iodine Ration, and I recall you mentioned candy tablet for child ren. (MrS. E. E. B0
 Answer-A drop of standard tinc- ture of iodine in a glassful of water is practically tasteless. Candy or chocolate coated tablets of an io- dine-compound are valuable, but comparatively expensive. One such tablet daily or three times a week is the usual ration for children or adults. Send stamped envelope bear ing your address, for pamphlet "In- structions for Taking an Iodin Ra. tion."

PROTECTIVE CREAMS WILL FIGHT CRIME

Of course, the texture of the skin and the neatness of your nails are frequently the first qualities of your hands to strike the observers eye. So your weekly manicure is all the more important now-in fact, work ing hands deserve 8 semi-weekly manicure and utterly faithful cuticle pushing every night or morning. And, not least, come the glove or the protective cream for grime- tasks, and the ever-present lotion. The last is very close to lipstick among wartime beauty indispens- ables.

 straight thinking about your hands.
 Probably, they already look a little different from your pre-war hands, since they undoubtedly have been buster this year. They will be taking it" at double quick speed again, come fall. So, better put them in shape for 1t and, even more important, better take realistic inventory on the subject of wartime hands.
 GLAMOR HANDS
 ARE DISAPPEARING
 There are three simple facts to consider:
 One - The hand that works hard will show it sooner or later in size or skin texture or nails; and the more a hand is denied protective and reviving care, the more it shows its industry.
 Two the hand that frankly says, T don't work" is certainly not the one to Haunt fashionably nowadays, until it belongs to i woman whose ornamental charms have some reason besides them selves for being. The glamor manicure, with nails extended beyond possible usefulness, is now out. Beauty fashions, as well as wartime living, says the smart hand is the competent-looking hand.
 Three - Competent hands, and working hands, can and do look graceful, when they get their daily quotient of correct care.
 Exercise is part of that care. It's the exercise that busy hands get which makes it possible for good sized, even passably shaped hands to look flexible and hence attractive. So you might put down as a beauty asset the typewriting defense post, the extra work you are doing in the office or at home. If you use your hands in sports in bowling, tennis or badmin- ton - that will Timber them. So will piano playing.
 EXERCISING WILL
 INSURE NEW GRACE If you do none of these, or if you merely use your hands at heavy tasks, you will find these exercises useful for getting them and keeping them flexible and graceful:
 Place elbows on a table and let the arms and hands rest comfort ably, palms down, and imagine you are playing the piano. Lift the right hand from the wrist, hold high, and let it come down as if you were striking big chord. Repeat five or six times. Then lift each finger separately, high, and bring it down vigorously. Re- peat with left hand.
 Now clasp the hands, elbows and palms up, fingers interwined. Bring the elbows down as far as they will go, keeping the hands clasped. You will feel pressure through the fingers - that's what flexes them beneficially. Relax and repeat half dozen times.
 Squeezing a ball - rubber used to be the prop, but ball of yarn or any soft, but not-too-soft round object will serve devel- ops the muscle of hands and fingertips, makes hands quicker and more alert. Grasp the ball 1 firmly in each hand, press in deeply, and release. Continue for several minutes. Another exercise, which also relaxes the hand, is simply shaking them smartly from the wrist, as if they were wet and you were drying them without towel.
