FAMOUS FABLES
BY E. E. EDGAR

ADMIRATION: French Com
poser Charles Gounod was fond
of the ladies. Once. after the
premiere of one of his operas,
a beautiful young admirer
rushed up to him.
"Ah. Monsieur. the opera was
superb, magnifique!" she
gushed. There are no words to
express my admiration for you.
You are a genius. a giant. a.
what shall I call you?"
Gounod, attracted by her trim
figure. extended his arms and
said:
why don't you call me little
pigeon'?"

Should your cigarette pack

longed smoking?
One of the Oldest principles
Of American trade law is that
commercially marketed products
shall be described with reas-

ucts designed for human con-
sumption shall be subject to
legal control if they pose a
threat to health.
OF course, there is still argu-
ment about the relationship be-
tween smoking and lung can
cer-but without doubt more
people are coming to believe
there is one.
Senator Wallace Bennett of
Utah, who already has intro
duced legislation aimed at put
ting warning" labels on Gig
arctic packages, is not alone
| in his belief in this sort of
need. Some highly regarded
medical researchers are begin
ming to go along. :
Warning Label
The Bennett bill would re-
quire this label on every Gig
arctic package:

culatory ailments, and other
diseases"
Legally speaking, there is
nothing to stop Congresses from
making this sore of warning
mandatory if it wants to. There
is no question of authority in
reaching the tobacco industry
through the Governments es-
tablished commerce and well
fare powers.
And there is ample prece-
dent in existing Federal laws
administered by the Food and
Drug Administration. If the
Government can control the
"toxicity of ingredients used in
the manufacture of foods,
drugs and cosmetics" it GER
tainly can do the same with
regard to the manufacture OF
cigarettes.
Conclusive Showing
What the courts probably
would require, however, in
warding off attacks on a law
of this kind, is a fairly conclu-
sive showing Of the damaging
potential in prolonged cigarette
smoking. Such a showing could
only come from expert testi-
mopy, not only expert testi-
mony. but also a "preponder-
ance" of it.
In other words, the advo-
Gates of a law requiring a
warning on tobacco products
would need to have more than

Many women who have been

OF my patients say to a woman
about ten years her junior:

fer. You get nervous. Every
thing scares you. Besides, you

And so on and on. l could
see how impressed the younger
woman became as the tale of
horror unfolded. My patient
wasn't aware that I was over
hearing this, so "she laid it on

AS 1T HAPPENS, the memo

much. Her chief complaints
were symptoms traced to an
old duodenal ulcer which had
troubled her for years.
Without being aware Of it,
she was one of those who was
handing down the tradition
that menopause is something to
be feared. Remember: like
pregnancy, the menopause is a
natural process. And like
pregnancy, there is only an oc-

haps partly because Of this
and partly because she is a
very attractive woman, several
single men in our community
have shown great interest in
her. But Martha will have
nothing to do with them, and
feel she is making a terrible
mistake.
I have tried to make her
realize she is headed for a very
lonely old age and now is the
time for her to do something
about it.
Martha M.-My sister is very
kind to think about my future
and to call me attractive. "
However. if I we're the home
Hest woman on earth. these
same men would be after me.
1t is terrible how a wealthy
widow could become a prey Of
some INSCRIPTIONS man.
A few months ago my sister
introduced to me a man who
seemed to be a pretty decent
sort. He showed he was seri-
ously interested in me. One
evening I told him if I ever
married again 1 would expect
the man to support me as any
husband should. and it should
be understood that the estate
left me by my first husband
was mine alone. Well. that was
the last l ever heard of him
and that shows a thing or two
about these men.
The Councils View
Martha shows as little gen.
crosby with her feelings as she
does with her money. She
seems to have no idea that she
could have insulted and hui
inflated a decent sort" of man
with her brutal remark. She
evidently had no cause what
ever to suspect this man was
mainly interested in her money.
yet she turned on him in a way
that would force any sensitive
man to disappear from the
scene.
Martha's bitterness toward
men, her assumption they could
not possibly be interested in
anything but her money, may
stem from the deep loneliness
that has already become the
pattern of her life. She and
her late husband withdrew
from society, from sharing
with others, after their son
died. 1t was a tragic experience,
but they did not give them
selves a chance to let the wound
heal. They burrowed deep in
their own misery, and, by not
sharing with others. received
none Of the soothing warmth
of human companionship.
The future is dark indeed for
Martha unless she can learn to
come out of her shell and be
willing to give TO others
friendliness, warmth and
money alone, it is true, but
there are plenty Of others who
seek more than that. Martha
will never learn to see the diff
ference unless she gets to know
them.
A second marriage is not the
only way for Martha TO escape
loneliness. Men and womer
friends and an active life in
the community will also help
She owes it to herself to make
the effort.

Surefire Gin Recipe
A few Of us-John Dundas,
al Porter, Artie Taylor-have
mastered the art of making
gin. Two quarts of 1870 proof
alcohol. an ounce of glycerin,
two quarts of water, a few
drops of juniper, and much
stirring with a pancake fiipper.

the ladies can breathe after
the first snort. Breathing is
easy after the third.

months ago. Herbert Hoover
won. He is a formal man and.
If he's as good a President as
he was at administering food

right. Smith is in favor of

country isn't. In Michigan, a

life Imprisonment for selling
two pints of rye.
