You have a weather eye on the clock, wondering if you can finish one task in time to tackle the next one, You are afraid to look at the memo pad: ofi your desk because there are so many Jhings to be done, so many appointments for the morrow. : Hurry, hurry, hurry! Haste 1s the curse of this period. It is espe- cially tough on the boss of the do- mestic works who can't find help for love or money. If she hasn't had the home job very long, she is likely to be in a state of confusion. Work is easier if you know how to make plans, organize the day's ac- tivities. Then you can get through the various chores quickly and ef- ficiently. You learn to save steps. You pick up as you @o along. We're all going at high speed, these days. It is high time that the sisters realized the health nced of relaxation. Life should not be breathless. It should be lived and it can't be lived if you are always on the hoof. Fatigue is a menace, not only to health, but also to good looks. It makes for poor judgment, ineffic- iency, a jittery nervous system, pre- mature wrinkles. One must never use up the last rag and remnant of energy; there must always be a re- serve supply. . Many highly energized women, always in a state of activity--ex- cept when they are asleep--are un- able to relax. When they try to fall asleep at night, their minds are filled with racing thoughts, nerves are tied into knots, muscles tense. They are suffering from physical fatigue and from mental and emo- tional weariness. They must store up "plus health" and strength by rationing their hours--so many for work, so many for sleep, so many for pleasant rec- Relaxation JAMESON these days. ok * reations. The nerve batteries must have a chance to-be recharged; na- ture will do that if given half a chance, With the nervous system on a rampage, one's viewpoints are not likely to be normal. If you are a wife and mother, make it a 'point to snatch a rest period while the baby is having his nap. Lie on your back with muscles limp; breathe deeply. It is sur- prising how slow, rhythmic breath- ing will calm one. Count "one, two; one, two." The purpose of counting is to make you forget that a basket- ful of ironing is waiting for you or that you must bake a mess of cook- ies for the kids who yell "I'm hun- gry" as soon as they step into the house.

The jacket has high plac- ed, curved, buttoned pockets, and sports a back and sleeves of finely knit wool yarn dyed to tone. FR VERY NEW is the fur coat cut like an old-fashioned mantle with soft, all-around fullness. Leopard is the fur chosen for a most exotic coat of this type that has a high buttoned yoke of black Alaska seal- skin with wide, matching cuffs, LE BEST CHOICE for the one-suil wardrobe is a softly tailored model handled on enduring classic lines, in a fabric such as broadcloth or gabardine, with softly fitted jacket and a skirt cut on slim, long lines. Such a suit is elegant on its own, with harmonious complements, and accepts well-done afternoon acces- sories with ease and grace. Best.of all, it always locks like money.

The match- ih ing veil is smartly flared. . LO J A REAL FRIEND for the limited wardrobe is the simply-handled, full-lined suit of silk--in taffeta, brocade or satin, While there is some faille, this fabric seems to have run its course for a while except in .the low brackets. Moderateiy priced, and worth searching for are these lined suits, good for afternoon, for res- taurant and theater wear. The ma. jority use simple lines and a slim yet easy silhouette.

BUNDESEN, M.D. ELDERLY LUNG CONDITION During the past few decade medical science has learned how to prolong life, so that today more people are living to a ripe old age than ever before. Unfortunately. however, we have not yet mastered the secret of making this longer life vigorous and ple 16 in all cases. Today, for instance, we know that many elderly people are plagued by a condition of the lungs known as onchiectasis, in which the tubes f the lungs are dilated and filled with foul-smelling secretion. This sults in a great deal of coughing, extreme fatigue, and loss of weight. Simple Methods A good many forms of treatment for this condition have been sug- gested, including operation to re- move the damaged parts of the lung. In general, however, the best results seem to be obtained by the more simple methods designed to promote drainage, control infection, and build up the general state of health. Since the structure of the lungs is damaged, there is not very much. that can be done to bring about a cure, Drainage of the secretion from the lungs can best be carried out by having the patient lie on a high bed or table. If he then leans over the side and places his hands on the floor, the fluids from the lungs drain satisfactorily, . Thinning of the secretion by giving the patient such preparations as iodides, ammonium chloride or creosote, and jhe brea- thing in of steam may be helpful. Such preparations as adrenalin. or ephedrine, when inhaled through an atomizer, may speed up the loosen- ing of the secretions. Furthermore, deep breathing before and during the drainage will help empty the secretions, This drainage should be carried out often eno to keep the dilated bronchi as free as pos- sible from secretions. Infection in cases of bronchiec* tasis may be controlled by the use of penicillin. The penicillin may be given by injection into a muscle or breathed into the lungs in the form of a dust or a vapor. It. is advisable te carry out the drain- age before the penicillin is breath- ed in. The benefits obtained from the penicillin are; of course, only temporary; that is, they control the infection but do not get rid of the dilated bronchi. One of the sulfonamide drugs, such as sulfadic yv be 'used over a long pe of time with benefit. However, the patients sometimes experience unfavorable reactions to these preparations, so they must be used only as the phy=- sician directs. The doctor, by regu- lar" examination, can determine if any such reactions are. occuring and will stop the preparation whén necessary. : The patient with branchiectasis should do everything possible . to protect himself against such infec- tions as colds, should build up his nutriaion- with proper diet, avoid exposure to cold and wet, sleep in warn, fresh air and, in some cases avoid smoXing. ¢ use 'of these measures by a patient with bron- chiectasis. often brings prompt re- lief from the symptoms. . QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS D.L.: My boy nine years old weighs 100 pounds, about 10 pounds overweight. His muscles seem to be stiff and he is very awkward. What would you suggest? ® Answer: It is advisable that the child be carefully studied by a neu- rologist and an orthopedic special- ist to determine the cause of his difficulties. The condition may not be abnor- mal. On the other hand, there may be some damage to the nervous sys- tem which has produced the mus- cular disorder. \ 2 There are more than 840,000 wom- en employed in Canadian industries today.

To keep your figure slim, fequires exercise and careful attention to diet, says Movie Star Marguerite Chapman, + *» SHOULD it happen that you héye added a little weight, this is a good time of the year to start a re. ducing war because out door exer- cise js still delightful. chill winds blow, you are not likely to take kindly to long walks that are so good for a lot of things that ail human creatures. : When adipose cells start to form, there is no telling how fast the) may multiply. It is safer to.be 'a weight watcher, to see if the bath room scales make dubious reports. Ten pounds too much may not have much of an effect upon the svelte shape, but when ten doubles to twenty it may be difficult to get back to normal. Movie stars take no chances. A lovely figure is their stock in trade. Follow their example if you are inclined to be curvaceous. Enough Protein Foods to eat are those that are in fats, sweets and starches, with enouzh pretein-meat, s--to maintain the struc ture of the body cells and to supply cnergy. One can have lean meat, chicken, crisp bacon, practically all fruits, buttermilk, cottage cheese, aspara- gus, cauliflower, cabbage, earrots, cucumbers, Brussels. sprouts, let- tuce, spinach, squash, radishes, tomatoes, onions, string beans. But don't have any of these vegetables 2% When the [fried meats in any form. Starchy * swimming in butter. Take tea and coffee clear. You may not like either one at first but you may be Surprised to find that your taste buds will do a turn-about and ac- cept them. List of Foods Here is a list of foods to be avoided. Fat meats, duck, goose, vegetables "like sweet potatoes, baked beans, lima beans, canned or green corn. Rich salad dressing, cream soups, candy, pastry, sugar, gravies, preserves. Whiledieting will reduce because if one lacks the usual amount of calories the fat cells will live upon themselves, bring about their own destruction and a certain amount of outdoor exercise is necessary for good spirits and well being. If you find it difficult to take time out for sports, do a few calis- thenics morning and night. A good exercise is as follows: After taking a good firm stance, feet parallel, a few inches apart and bending knee upward, stretch legs straight for- then original position. Change to other leg. Fifteen times a day is a reasonable minimum for this ex- ercise especially recommended for keeping the abdomen flat. For Fall Affairs A "{| cut the labor in two.

By MRS, CORNELIUS BEECKMAN 194 Dear Mrs. Beeckman: » I have just received word that a very dear friend of mine passed on about ten days ago. I am devoted to her mother, with whom my friend lived, and I would like to have you advise me if I should tele- phone her mother, or tend her a sympathy-card, or should I write her a note? Ellen It wouldn't be kind for you to ex- tend your sympathy to your friend's mother by telephone . . . this might not be comfortable for her, might be a very unhappy experience to force her to speak qver the tele- phone about her loss, her so-recent loss. Also I doubt very much if she would find much personal comfort in an impersonal, printed card of sympathy . this kind of card should NEVER be sent, and cer- tainly not by a devoted friend. What would give comfort to this mother would be a letter of sym- pathy from you, at once, telling her of your understanding of her loss, of your devotion to her daughter, of your wish to help if there is any possible way you can help. If the mother lives near enough for you to go to see her, ask her if you may come, and if she will please sug- gest a time convenient for her. Your letter will, I know, be deeply understanding, a sweet comfort to this sorrowing mother, "When the shadow falls," our hearts need warm-hearted words, friendly words, words of real sympathy and sweet understanding. Use Formal Name When Sending Package Dear Mrs. Beeckman: Will you please settle this dis- pute between my sister and me (we are both married)? When a married woman orders an article to be sent to her at her house (for ex- ample, something from a depari- ment store), what form of name should she give to the salesperson, "Mrs. Mary Smith" or "Mrs. John Smith"? R. M. Her formal name , . . Mrs. John Smith. Widowed Mother To Give Bride In Marriage Dear Mrs. Beeckman: My husband is not living, and at my - daughter's church wedding would it be proper for a man who has been a friend of our family for a long time to give her in marriage? Or would it be better form if I just nod my head from my place in the first pew? (I don't want to walk up the aisle) Or would it be {] best for her to walk up the aisle alone? E. 8S. This is not so much a question of good form as it is a question of your daughter's wish. I am sure that, since her father is not living, she would like to have you have the honor of giving her in marriage. And it is not necessary for you to walk up the aisle with her. My suggestion is that she ask the fam- ily friend to escort 'her up the aisle, and then have him take his ceat either with you in the first pew, or with his family in the pew behind you. Then at the proper time in the ceremony, you may respond from your place, "I do," when the minister asks "Who giveth - - -2?" On Serving Small Cups Of After-Dinner Coffee Dear Mrs. Beeckman: As a gift for our first wedding anniversary, we have just received a set of after-dinner coffee spoons . .. and now we can use the after- dinner coffee cups and saucers we received as a wedding present! I am trying to learn to set a "nice" table, - with everything correctly placed. Therefore, this quesiion: When I serve after-dinner coffce at table, should I place the demi- tasse spoons on the table (1) when I set the table or (2) just before I serve the coffee? . Hostess Neither. After-dinner colfee spoons should not be set on the table. DE When you pass the small cups of after-dinner coffee, place a small spoon on each saucer, at Jthe right of the cup. The most convenient procedure (whether you serve the after-dinner coffee at table, or, often more leisurely, in the living room) is to have all the coffee-cei- vice equipment on a tray to be set before you: coffee-pot, sugar howl (with sugar-squares or colored suz- ar crystals), cream pitcher (op- tional), after-dinner coffee cups and saucers, after-dinner coffee spoons.
