WoMA The “Bob” as a BY MARY MARSHAL The Parisian accepts the bob as a current fashion—nothing more.

T shall wait untl | I hear from you, so please write soon.” N'S PAGE Current Fashion that is almost as absurd as It would be to find out whether short skirts were going to be worn, before giving up ankle-length skirts. The bob is a fashion—and most fashions are pass- ing. Whether or not it is going to remain the rule for women, few Parisians care to say. The hairdresser shrugs his shoulders when you ask him. To be sure, men once wore long hair—but for more than a century they have worn it short. Perhaps women will do the same. It is hard to say, and analogies are dangerous things so far as fash- fon is concerned. ‘What one does learn from the hair- dresser and the milliner and every one else one asks is that among the French women who make a great ef- fort to follow the fashion bobbed hair, or rather closely shingled hair, is prevalent, on the increase, even. But there are countless well dressed French women who never make an effort to follow what they call the “dernier erl.” (Copyright. 1926.) MENU FOR A DAY.

From the Parisian pnint of view | EAT AND BE HEALTHY Dinah Day's Daily Talks on Diet The Right Food Is Stomach Types. | Many years ago a man was shot In | the stomach. The bullet wound left | & permanent hole in the abdominal wall. Through this opening doctors viewed the muscular action of the stomach. Generalizations were made from this sightseaing adventure which have since been found to be incorrect. Nowadays the wonderful old X-ray turns its allseeing eve on man's “inards” and doctors can tell exactly what is going on. They have found there are four shapes of stomachs. There is different tone or muscular action in different persans. There is even different position of the stomach in different people, and there are dif- ferent size stomachs. All these wonderful great bearing on why it s that water drinking with meals agrees with John Smith, while Tom Brown suffers with indigestion when he drinks two | glasses of water with his dinner.

PUTNAM FADELESS DYES the Best Medicine food and his appetite cries “more.” It seeme as if all healthy, growing boys must have John Smith's type of stom- ach, for they are generally bottomless pits. In explanation of the four shapes of the stomach, there is: First, the stomach which is shaped like a steer's horn, large end upper- most. This is called the hypertonic stomach and has great muscular power. Second, the stomach shaped like the letter *J," termed orthonic because | normal in tone. Third, the stomach shaped more like a letter “U,” as the left arm reaches half the height of the right, aking the shape nearer a “U" than a This kind of stomach is hypo- tonic and has less than normal tone. Fourth, the stomach ehapes still more like a “U,” the left arm coming up nearly as high as the right. There is practically no tone at all in this kind of stomach, which is called atonic, The digestion of a howl of bismuth and oatmeal was examined by means | of the X-ray. The meal was emptied | from the stomach of the first type in | two or three hours, from the second | in three or four hours, from the third | in four or five hours, from the fourth in five to seven hours. Quite a M- cult job for the last two digesters. Water passes through the stomach of the first and second types in less than 15 minutes. Three and even five glasses may be taken at one meal and in half an hour no more water remains than if only one glass had been drunk. In the last two tvpes #olld food remains for a much greater period and fluids even longer. As sclentists test man out the fact is proved that we are each different from everybody else. Each can pat his tummy and say, “I am an indi- vidual.” W. R—Do vitamins A and B help the growth of children? Answer— They do. A diet short on fat seluble vitamin A and water soluble vitamin B retards or suspends growth of young animals. In adults the symp- tomse resulting from lack of thess necessary vitamins might be either loss of weight or maintenance of weight, but loss of vitality. S I Strawberry Meringue Pie.

FOOD AND HEALTH BY WINIFRED STUART GIB! Food Speelallst. Poor younger generation! How its members do suffer the hands of those who are certainly its elders if not {ts betters! Let us by all means leave to the psychologists such phases of the problem as belong to them, but why not do a little work on our own account, those of us who bheliave that complete nutrition works wonders in the way of prevention when it comes to such matters as an underdevel- oped—emotional nature? Of course, we should not take the young people into our confidence be- fore institution of our program. XNo one likes, for example, to be told that his soul-devastating sensations arise from a disordered liver. Nor can we expect the voungsters in their turbu- lent twenties to respond to any Sug- gestion that plenty of milk and fresh vegetables and frults and brown bread and fresh butter will help enor- mously in changing their views as to the probable destination of the human | race. So for us it should be a case of benevolent concealment of motives and canny procedure along the lines of diet improvement. For we have sound physiological backing for our premise. The still growing bodies of our would-be blase young peaple need careful feeding as much as their still developing emotions require careful guidance; the one will, as we have pointed out, help the other. It may not he easy; nothing worth while ever is. For If we insiet on overemphasizing the dull side of diet we shall defeat our own ends. In- stead the delicately organized frame of the girl and the rapidly develop- ing erganism of the very young man should be studied, silently and unecb- trusively, by the mether or guardian, and a system of diet and hygiene de- vised that will regulate for the pres- ent while building for the future. Not that any “special diet” will be neces- sary. A good all-round mixed diet in reasonable quantities, one that fea- tures the foods listed in an earlier paragraph, is the basis for such a program. There should be, it is true, certain taboos. Sweets should be cur- tailed within reas as should “rich" and “made dishes. For the most part, -however, com- mon-sense diet and ecommon-sense exercise, rest and recreation will be all that are required. The point we are striving to make here is that one should keep constantly in mind the connection between such a program and the maintenance of a balanced emotional nature. e Sponge Oake Muffins, Take two egg volks and one white.

KINSELLA VAKRlA'I"ION'g—KIH h, ingsley, Kinsley. RACIAL ORIGIN=Irish. SOURCE—A nleckname. Every once in a while you run across an Irish family name which does not sound very Irish. There are not many peopls, comparatively speak- ing, who would regard Kinsella as an Irish name, just as thers are not so many who know that Costello is Irish and not Italian or Spanish. Certainly any one might be forgiven for not thinking that the form Kings- ley is Irish. The Gaelic form of this family name {s “O'Ceannsalaighe,” which, though it does not look much like “O'Kin- sella.” as a matter of fact is pro- nounced almost exactly like it. The founder of this clan was a chief- tain who came of the Kavanaugh line, named “Eanna,” and surnamed “Ceannsalach.” The seems little chance to avold taking this surname as a personal reflection, at least from our modern viewpeint, though appar- ently the chieftain himself did not object to it, for it means ‘“unclean head " Kingela, Beet tn Appls Cups.

Can you quote for me a praver by Robert ‘Louis Stevenson a phrase of which 1 half remember as “Help us to play the man?"

Help us to play the man: help us to perform them with laughter and kind faces; let cheerfulness abound with industry. “Give ue to go blithely on our busi- ness all this day; bring us to our rest- ing beds weary and content and undis- honored, and grant us in the end the gift of sleep.” > Newbury, Fla. 1 have noted in a previous answer of yours that you refer to the ad- herents of the modern school of re- ligion as experimentalists and that you sald, “T do not believe that this school can provide the essentials for any re- ligion werthy of the name.” How about righteousness as the es. sentfal? be asked, could more be desired as the essentlal for true religion? If a man eo lives, can it matter what he balieves even to the extent of disbelieving in the creeds and dogmas of all religions, present and past? The so-called modernist expurgates “belief” as & prerequisite to true re-| liglon and substitutes ‘‘correct, living" therafor. Can you conceive of a just God have him profess his belief in something at which his reasoning | mind revolts and condemn him if he didn't? Answer—I heartily agree that right. eousness {s an essential to true re- liglon. Ewe preacher should ex- pound snnually the text. ‘“‘He that doeth righteousness is righteous.” But it is by no means the totality of re- ligion. Nor is it possible to separate prac- tice from theory in this or in any other matter of life. One's actions are invariably deter- mined by one's bellefs. € In the Dr.Philip G. Ziegler PARKES CADMAN or unconsciously, these bellefs sway conduct to such an extent that “as a man thinketh in his heart so {s he.” If, for instance. one believes that morality is purely “relative” his vir- tue is apt to sag under heavy pres sure. But if he believes that morality is mandatory and proceeds from an ab- solute authority his virtue is far more likely 1o withstand pressure. Before you can know what to do vou must know what you are, what kind of a universe you live in and why you are here, In short, your actions root in your theories about yourself, your fellows and your surroundings. My objection to the experimentalist is that he unnecessarily restricts his observations to his own deeire and deed. What he feels, thinks and does form far too limited a field of inquiry upon which to base a vital and com- municating faith. On the other hand, Christianity is a historic religion. It sustains and con- firms one's personal experiences by the testimony of many of earth's noblest souls and by the authority of Christ himself. Tha speculative element in your able letter leaves a great deal open to ques- tion. Where is the marvelous man, who, discarding “all beliefs,” substi- tutes for them ‘correct living?' I suspect he is a somewhat impossible creature. As for what God would have us do about the ‘‘reasoning mind,” T agree that His first requirement is that we shall uee it honestly. Yet its {nherent weakness and fu- tility ought to restrain in thinking men the undue elevation of that mind which leads to self-worship, (Copvright. 1928.) Cherry Dumpling.
