When Educated Daughters Decide to Get Married HOW TO CURB FERSPIRATION 7 By DOROTHY DEX A WOMAN complaining bitterly the other day because her bright and talented youg daughter had got. married instead of espousing a career. I have been asked whether there is any Jiarm in perspiration deter rents. I had better answer the question first which I will by say ing "No, and then explain.

Two Kinds There are two kinds of sweat glands in the human body. One is the short coil gland which is found in great profusion all over the body. This gland secretes the fluid perspiration alone, and may be Dr. Cleodenlnr a nJ' where on the skin whether there are hairs or not, as on the palms of the hand. These are called the eccrine glands.

The other kind of gland secretes not only the fluid perspiration, but also casts off some of its cells in the secretion. It is always found in association with a hair follicle. These are called the aoocine glands. They are found mostly in the arm pits, around the nipples and over the pubes. The apocine glands are present in great numbers in hairy animals.

The small sweat gland abundantly present on the skin of man, is almost entirely absent in animals. 1 The two kinds of glands have different functions. The small coil sweat gland acts as a heat regulator by evaporation: 87 per cent of heat loss of the body is accounted for this way. The apocine eland has no function, it is probably an undeveloped, or degenerated milk gland. Not Harmful To stop the secretion of the armpit glands i3 therefore of no consequence.

Several chemicals are capable of doing this formaldehyde, alum, oxygen bearing or oxygen releasing compounds such as XJ i v.

Howard Hodge and worn by Jean Chatburn, I -Just think 01 ku, -a girl with a mind like Sadie's not having any more ambition than that! Why, any little nitwit can get married! -Well," I replied, "what's the matter with marriage as a career? Seems to me that the most important and worth-while work that any woman can do in the world is to make a happy home, keep her husband eating out of her hand for 40 or 50 years, bring up a family of fine children who are an honor and a glory to her and the prop and May of her country.

4 Xot Spectacular Career -To be a good wife and mother may not be as spetacular a career as bsing a cinema star, or to have written a best seller, but there is a lot more solid "appi-nesa and satisfaction in it. And very often there is a lot more glory in it than anything a Oman could ever achieve himself. The women whose halos time never dims are the mothers of great rain." "Don't worry about Sadie's education being wasted. She will need it all in her job of being a wife. Marriage deserves to rank first among the learned professions, because it calls for more intelligence and a greater and more varied assortment of knowledge than any other occupation on earth.

The question of whether to open fourth hand in duplicate bridge is simply that of whether you think your side has a slightly better chance to gain a plus score than a minus score. A good gauge to apply to borderline hands is whether the major suit cards or the minor suit cards predominate. If there are more in the majors than in the minors, then the hand may be slightly below average in honor strength, but If minor suit cards predominate, then the honor strength should be appreciably above average. 4Q364 VA7 652 A432 A 7 5 10 9 3 10 8 4J 9 5 493 f652 A 9 4 AKQ10 8 A(Dealer: West.

Perspiration depressants and deodorants cannot be divided. Few preparations are either the one or the other. Menthol and camphor are the drugs used most often for deodorizatlon alone. Aluminum Chloride The near specific for depressing perspiration is aluminum chloride.

It works ratlsfactorily. It does reduce the flow of perspiration. It also afTecj the clothing which touches the site of application so that repeated washings rot it out. So if you want to make your own anti-perspiration co'mpouad, the following prescription is recommended: Aluminum chloride 16, distilled water 100. Dissolve and filter.

Those who decided to pass the hand out because of the shortage of cards in the major suits were rewarded. Where the bidding started with 1-Diamond, West overcalled with 1-Heart, East bid 1-Spade, South passed and West bid 2-Hearts. West lost only two clubs, one diamond and one heart, making a score of 140, for which he could thank South.

There would have been no chance for the East-West players to have got together except for South's mistake in opening so weak a hand.

'Beauty By GLADYS GLAD SUNT AN RULES Back in the days of the grand Queen Victoria of England, it was considered fashionable to look wan. pale and delicate. Consequent'y, women were afraid to expose them selves to the sun, and when they did indulge in what" they consid ered bathing, they were covered from head to toe in voluminous bathing suits and visored bathin; caps, so that the sun just couldn't get at their skins at all. Soak Sunshine We modern women want to ap pear vivacious and glowing with health, and so we soak up plenty or vitalizing sunshine. The girl who wants, to cavort about in the sunshine, however.

must De cautious about It, xor a painful, blistery sunburn is any thing but pleasurable. And it cer tainly doesn't benefit the skin, either. You can use the vinegar and oil method of acquiring a smooth, even suntan. Hefore sunbathing, moist en your skin with vinegar, and when this has dried, smooth a gen erous amount of pure olive oil over the exposed portions of the body. Time your sunbaths, wisely, too, so that you do not over-expose your skin to tae sun violet rays.

Sun bathe both on your back and tum my, so that -the suntan is a smooth and even coloring. A red, blistery, peeling skin real ly is anything but pleasurable, and proper skin protection goes a long way toward eliminating painful sunDurns. But just the same, it is sometimes good to know about that pound of sunburn cure. For some women acquire badly burned skins, regardless of the preachings of beauty culturiats. Such women generally have the idea that if they use a protective cream, the sun won have any effect on them, and will prevent them from acquiring a nice tan.

Consequently, they expose their bodies without taking any protective measures, and the painful burns some of them acquire are wows! Good Cream A really good protective cream. of course, will not prevent a wo man from acquiring a rich, even coat of tan. Of course, if the sunburn a girl receives is really an extreme one, the thing for her to do is to consult a physician, for sun burn poisoning can result from a severe sunburn that is neglected or improperly treated. Ordinarily, however, proper treatment will soothe and relieve such a burn. An excellent sunburn remedy can be made of equal parts of linseed oil and Umewater.

This lotion should be patted generously on the skin. and renewed as speedily as it Is ab sorbed by the parched, burned skin. Water should never be used on a sunburned skin until all the in flammation has disappeared. ually, at least 24 hours should be permitted to elapse before the skin is cleansed with'water. Use a good.

light cold cream or skin balm for cleansing your face. In order to re place the natural oils extracted by the sun. And make frequent use of pure tissue cream, in order to soothe your skin and to keep it soft, smooth and supple.

She has to be good in them all." More than that, for a woman to make a go of marriage requires that she shall have both head and heart; that she shall have swiftness and strength and staying powers. Also that she shall be able to function in a dozen diametrically opposite ways. It is literally true that a wife must be both a parlor ornament and a kitchen utensiL Conqu-erer at Best "If that isn't a fairly full career for any woman, I don't know what is. Certainly the woman who keeps her husband happy and contented and thinking his home preferable to a night club, who is playmate, friend and guide to her children, who belongs to clubs and is interested in causes and who helps make her community a better place to live in and all of that is part of the game of marriage these days has no need to weep for other worlds to conquer." "Maybe if women would look upon marriage as a career and not as a part-time job that requires no thought, work or intelligence and that they can pull off when they are devoting theii minds and energies to clubs and bridge or trying to run tea shops, we would have fewer matrimonial failures.

WORDS munity most of them a bit Only the handicapped, subnormal children, those reared in unhealthy families, who had tainted blood, unbalanced glands, poor mental and physical health stayed with their mistakes. Harshness Harsh word3 did not help either of the groups to a better way. Whenever they were used they did harm. It is possible to show a child that one shuns the evil he touches while loving the child himself. It is possible to condemn a mistake without condemning the child who made it.

Facts and Fancies Coddled Eggs Says a bulletin from the U. S. Bureau of Agriculture: Many means have been suggested for cooking eggs in such a way that the yolks will be cooked and the whites will not be overcooked. One of the most satisfactory is by coddling, which is done as follows: Allow one cup of water to each egg, bring the water to the boiling point, remove it from the fire, put in the eggs, cover the dish closely, and leave the eggs in the water for about seven minutes. There is some uncertainty about thi3 method, for eggs differ in weight and also in temperature at the time the cooking begins.

On the whole, however, this method can be more depended upon than others. Good results can be obtained by pouring hot water over eggs, if the same dish with the same amount of water is always used, but each cook must make her own rules. Small Brushes Handy Small brushes, such as discarded tooth brushes, if not too worn, are nanay for polishing and cleaning shoes and for applying silver polish or cleaning powders to brass and other metal ornaments. The bris tles on a small brush will penetrate grooves and corners which are nearly impossible to reach in any other way. Small brushes are in expensive to buy.

MARY MORTON HARSH In their anxiety for the welfare of the.r children parents often make the mistake of using words so harsh, with such a finality in their sound, as to frighten the children into panic. A state of panic makes a child the helpless victim of his own fear.

All intelligence is paralyzed, all hope dead. There is nowhere to go, nobody to turn to, nothing possible in the way of escape. The child goes from bad to worse. Not All That is not at all what the parents intended to do. When a mother sets her- teeth and says, "I detest a whiner;" when a father stouts, "I hate a liar," or "I loathe aVnief," the idea is to impress the' chili with the error of his way and tarn him to righteousness.

But it does not work. Children look to their fathers and mothers for help in time of trouble. They turn to them when all the world turns against them as wrong-doers. Home and parents form the bulwarks of a child's life. When they seem to fail him he has nothing left except despair.

"Hate," "detest," "loathe," "liar," "thief. are harsh words and full of poison. They must never be uttered against children no matter what they have done. Hate and loathe are words that tell a child that he is an outcast from parental affection and care. They are terrible words.

Parents who utter them do not really mean tem, but the child takes them as they come, as blows to his soul killing blows that end all hope. Don't Call Names Calling a names is about the worst possible practice that a parent or teacher can indulge tn because it reduces the child to the level of the name and makes it possible for him to be the thing he was said to be. "Call a dog a thief and he will steal" is more of truth than I have known a great many children, and the great majority of them have become healthy, successful people. Few of them went through childhood and adolescence without doing something that was wron-j, that held the threats of evil in it. The healthy ones, those -sired of healthy parents in good homes, did not carry the mistake into a practice.

They experimented. got Into trouble, got out again and went along like the rest of the corn- Scrapbook By ROBERTA LEE The Bedding fttresses. pillows, and blankets will be kept in a sanitary condition, ana wtli also wear longer if they are placed in the sun one day every week or ten days.
