The fact, then, that GO per

KEEPING HEALTHY
Stomach TROUBLED!
BY Dr.. James w. Barton

1T is known that nervousness and
L emotional disturbances are the
early causes of stomach and in
festival ulcer, and also inflamma-
ton of the lining of the stomach.
Overcoming the nervousness or
reaching a final decision on some
disturbing conflict often brings re-
lief from symptoms.
1t is also known that infec-
tion-of the teeth, gums, ton
sils, sinuses, gall bladder or
large intestine-also can cause
stomach disturbances, including
ulcer.
What was not suspected of caus-
ing stomach ulcer is allergy to GER
tain foods, despite the fact that
stomach disturbances and hives
(urticaria) frequently are caused by
foods to which the individual is al
lergic.
Foods causing allergic skin re-
action in order of decreasing fire.

yolk, barley, oats, vegetables, egg
white, rye, fish and wheat. This

very little sense of the ridiculous
and were quite incapable of laugh
ing at themselves, however childish

NOR usually indicates emotionalma-
turity because it keeps you from

Is it normal for a coed to be

writes Annalies A. Rose of Smith
College in the Journal of Social
Psychology. On the basis of study
of 66 women freshmen in their first
five weeks at college, DR.. Rose con-
cludes that "well adjusted" girls,
particularly those who have no trou-
BILE making contacts with the oppo-
site sex, are not homesick at all.

Cattle Industry
Grew With U. S.

Two years after the first COL
onists landed in Virginia, cattle
were conspicuous part of colonial
wealth and by 1927 a peninsula "as
large as an English county" had to
be fenced off for grazing purposes.
Cattle made so great an impress
sion upon New England that Bos-
ton laid out its streets to conform
to cow trails-and Connecticut and
Rhode Island accepted them a.
taxes.
The Carolinas were once re-
garded as "the greatest COW coun-
try" in America. However, cattle
men began moving west after the
Revolution and by the end of the
Civil war, Texas was the foremost
cattle state.

FWoman,s Word
New Slipcovers Will Relieve
faded Look of Tired Rooms
& G,tta Haley

CLIP covers, whether you are plan
- ming them as part of redecorat-
ing scheme or using them to cover
new furniture pieces done in mus
lin, are an important part of a dra-
matte decorating scheme, so it's a
good idea to create styles that will
enhance their surroundings.
Today, many newcomers to the
homemaking ranks prefer to buy
chairs, sofas or chaise lounge with
only the muslin cover so they can
use their own choice of style and
fabric for either a traditional slip
cover or a permanent slip cover to
resemble the upholstery.
Even though you may be new to
sewing, don't be afraid to tackle a
slip cover project. The size need not
overwhelm you as there is not much
difficult sewing essential. And, if you
want professional advice, there's a
local sewing center which can give
you latest decorating tricks and
shortcuts to making them.
Plan Style, Select
Fabric First
First decision in sewing project
of this type will be to decide the
style you want to follow in deco
rating. After that you will know what
to ask for in a fabric since patterns
differ depending upon modern, 18th
century or colonial.
Fabrics, you'll find, are plentiful,
and there's a wide choice of floral,
striped and plain designs running
Browning chief. [volume] (Browning, Mont.) 1941-1953, 1949-02-25

another chair in plain with either
floral or striped fabric for trimming.
If you have very large couch you
might cover that in a solid color
and the pillow in floral or small
stripes that are used elsewhere in
the room, thus holding the decora-
tive scheme together.
Select Cover
By Furniture Type
The classic slip cover with box
pleated flounce is always popular for
practically every type of furniture.
However, if your sofa or chair has a
streamlined appearance, you might
try straight flounce with practical
ly no pleats at all or straight skirt
with inverted corner pleats. For in
formal rooms, early American set
ting, use a gathered flounce on chairs
and sofa in keeping with the general
atmosphere of the room.
If your slip cover job is limited
to antimacassars or miniature slip
covers that cover back and arms of
chairs, you'll follow the general pro-
cedure used in slip cover making.
You will, however, have to give addi-
tional thought to fabric selection for
the project since most of the original
furniture piece covering will be in
plain view. Avoid color or texture
clashes.
Procedure Given
For Actual Work
After you've decided on type of
cover, take measurements to esti-
mate yardage. Consider width of fab
ric selected in the final calculation.
Generous estimates will give best
results and three inch tuck-in allow
ance where fabric receives strain is
essential. You will need three-quar-
ter inch allowance for seams.
Follow measurements for cutting
and leave generous seam allow
ances. Be sure to follow the grain
of the fabric. Keep lengthwise on up
and down; crosswise grain, cross
wise chair.
Seams should appear wherever
there is one in the original uphol-
stery. Otherwise, the finished cover
will not fit with the precision it
should.
Finish With Trim
Of Cording or Fringe
Before joining the sections of slip
cover, make trimming for seams
and bottom edge. Applique cut-out
flower clusters across back, seat or
arms will have decorator appeal.
The zigzagger attachment on the
sewing machine can be used for this
stitching job.
To give a corded finish to slip COW
ers, make welting and use it to
join slip cover sections and bottom
edge of plain box finish. Welting is
cotton cord covered with a bias
strip of material. Cut bias one
and one-half to one and three-quar-
tiers of an inch wide, depending upon
cord used. Place cord in center of
bias strip. Fold strip over, bringing
the edges together.
Stitch close to the cord with cord
ing foot attachment on sewing ma
chine. The same fabric as used in
the chair or sofa can be used for
this finish or it can be contrasting.
Closings for slip covers should be
slide fasteners. Insert them at side
of back leg, applying it as you would
on placket.

size designs as well as the old stand
bys in plain color minus designs of
any kind. Pick your fabric accord
ing to size of the furniture piece;
suit the type of room as well as the
size of the furniture to be covered.
1t would be inadvisable, for exam
pie, to use large, bold design for
a large, overstuffed chair when a
plain, small printed design would do
more to minimize the chair size.
Classic styles are nice to use when

have too much space, it's wise to
select solid colors neither too bright

Bold patterns are ideal for setting
