MAGAZINE PAGE Youthful One-Piece Frock |Bedtime Stories |- Dorothy Dix Says RESSES for daytime wear ap- pear simpler than ever. Few of them, however, give the impression of being severe. On the contrary, they have a warm, comfortable and modish look, which comes from the greater indulg- ence in color and a recurrent interest in unusual weaves. The plain little frock appearing to- day is a type that will be of great consequence soocn after the holidays. For it is obvious that women are to be put into a print-conscious frame of mind. And so vibrant with color, and animated with design, are the new fabrics, that the dresses, per- force, must be cut with the fewest seam lines possible, in order not to disturb the beauty and arrangement of the material itself. This, to the home dressmaker, is good news in itself. For it means getting grand effects with the mini- mum of effort. The indications are that unusual combinations of color will rank above mere textile designs. Rich wine shades, for instance, are being used with sapphire blue and a dash of white. Tulip shades and blues are seen in combination with clear yellow and pale blue and designs are being outlined with natural or white, to have a Summery look. - Nature's BY LILLIAN Blue Flag. Iris versicolor. USKIN says that “the fleur-de- R lis, which is the flower of chivalry, has a sword for its leaf and a lily for its heart.” Now you know the flower must have an interesting story. Though it blooms from May until July, you may find the green, sword- like leaves all Winter in sheltered spots. The variety planted in home gardens is often green through the entire Winter. The blue flag prefers marshes and wet meadows, in which to live and gather her children about her feet. The rootstock lies in a horizontal position and as it creeps along new shoots are sent up. From Newfoundland and Manitoba (TR to Arkansas and Florida, you may not only see this lovely flower, but study her. The name “iris” means a deifled rainbow and was given to these flow- ers because of their exquisite color- ing. The fleur-de-lis is the national flower of France. Blue being the favorite color of bees, you do not wonder that they gather to sip the nectar and creep over the fairylike plush carpet at the entrance door. The butterflies call, and so do the beetles, but they are self-invited guests, and their visit confers no benefit upon the hostess. Study the flower and see the dainty guide limes she has etched upon the sepal. They are purple and yellow and the bee knows she must follow them down the long velvet-hung hall- way to the nectary. Watch the guest as she alights on the lip of the sepal; how she has her back lightly touched by the hang- ing stigma, then brushes against the open anther, which lies along the ceiling of the hall. Here she finds two guiding lines, each one leading to a flowing cup of nectar, at the base of the sepal. Small, solitary bees seem to be the ‘most frequent callers, and apparently they know well the secret entrance to the banquet hall, for they make perfect landings on the threshold of the side door. They push their way in gently, leave their offering of gold as they enter and slip' out through another side door. This I want you . o Bty G i i ) s S Peasant prints, in cotton, are note- worthy for their gay quality—and so are sheer wool stripes, checks and plaids. When these materials are used the collar and =carf are of solid, dark contrast. If the dress is made of velvet, or silk with deep crinkles, the collar is omitted and jeweled clips are used at the neckline. (See small view.)

The bee, in going in, is brushed by the hanging stigma, and in this position gathers the pollen brought from another hostess, but the guest, in departing, pushes the hanging flap in the opposite direction, the wise plan against self-fertilization. The flower has three petals, three sepals, a style with three branches, which are wide and flat and cover the bases of the three sepals. In this way the tubes are formed which we may call tunnels or a hallway to the refreshment room. Three anthers lie on the under side of the styles. There are many varieties of iris, and each hostess seems to have her color scheme for directing her guests over the plush rug into the nectary. During the first days the flower is open you will have a good chance to see the exquisite plush. Examined under a magnifying glass, when it is just exposed to view, it is the | most marvelous texture and coloring to be seen in flowers. It is said that the handsome plush rug at the vestibale of the flower is for the expres# purpose of keeping out the inquisitive guests, like the ant and beetle, and she has this way of keeping them at the front door, ' by tangling their feet in the deep velvet. ! There is one thing we have not quite solved, and that is why the bee, upon coming out of the banquet hall, nibbles at the plush. What | does she find? Was something placed there by her hostess, some- | thing we have been unable to see? (Copyright, 1934.) PR bt The Debunker BY JOHN HARVEY FURBAY, Ph.D. LTHOUGH many historians are doubtful whether such a person as Arthur ever lived, others concede that there may have been a British chieftain by that name, but state that his “existence and deeds ve very little to do with the origin of the cycle of romances to which his name is given.” He is supposed to have lived in the sixth century and to have been killed at the battle of Camlan. Au- thentic history, however, does not have any record of his actual existence— much less the existence of his legen- dary court and “Knights of the Round- table.” (Copyright. 1934.) BY THORNTON W. BURGESS. Nanny's Great Idea. Ideas all progress underlie: would quickly dle. Wiknet (el F 1A Saother Natire. INER THE MOLE was digging a tunnel and Danny and Nanny Meadow Mouse were watching the progress of that tunnel. They couldn’t watch Miner, for he was under ground. Of course, that is where he would have to be to dig a tunnel. But they could tell just how fast he was digging and in just what direction he was making that tunnel. You see, that tunnel was just under the roots of the grass and Miner kept pushing the roof up so that it formed a ridge. All Danny and Nanny had to do was to watch the progress of that ridge to know Jjust where Miner was at work. Down in the ground Miner was working hard, but you should not pity him for that. You see, Miner wouldn't be happy if he didn’t work hard. He has done it all his life. For every particle of food he has to dig, and because he is a hard worker he requires much food. So he digs after worms and grubs and insects that live all or a part of their lives in the ground. He bores his way along, driving the long stout claws of his powerful big front feet past his nose into the earth and sweeping it back much as if he were swimming through the ground. And as he bored his way ahead he kicked some of the dirt behind him to be pushed back to the nearest opening, and he pushed some up so that the roof was raised. And every now and then he came to a worm or grub and ate it. As they watched that ridge grow in length Danny and Nanny, especially Nanny, became more and more ex- cited. “He’s going to do it! As sure as you're alive, he's going to do it!” cried Nanny. “It must be so if you say s0,” agreed Danny, “but I would feel better about it if you would tell me just what it is he is going to do.” “Carry his tunnel right under that old coat right close to where we live, of course. What did you think he was going to do?” replied Nanny. “I didn't think,” replied Danny. “Just why are you so excited about his digging his tunnel under that coat?” “You're not thinking now,” retorted Nanny. “If you were you wouldn't ask that question.” Danny looked at the ridge of earth steadily drawing near that old coat in the fence corner, and he looked at the old coat. Finally he looked at Nanny. “Igive it up,” sald he. “What's the answer?” “Are you really stupid or just pre- tending to be?” demanded Nanny. “If Miner the Mole carries that tun- nel under that old coat think what that will mean to us.” “Well, what will it mean?” asked Danny after waiting a bit. Nanny quite lost patience. “Is something wrong with your head, Danny Meadow Mouse?” she snapped. “Don’t you see that with that tunnel to make use of we can go and come without arousing suspicion as to where that home of ours is? All we'll have to do will be to make a hole down into the tunnel right in front of the entrance to our home. Then we can use the tunnel when Miner isn't about and dig out at some point at a safe distance from home. No one seeing us there would think to look for us under this old coat. So we can go and come as we please without giving away our secret. Do you see now?” “Of course, I see!” cried Danny. “It is a great idea, Nanny. It certainly is a great idea. However did you happen to think of it?” “You don't think of ideas; they just come,” replied Nanny modestly. And now Danny was quite as ex- cited as Nanny as they watched the progress of that tunnel being dug by Miner the Mole. (Copyright, 1934.) o Sonnysayings BY FANNY Y. CORY.

The word owes this sense to an incident in the Bible. In the Book of Jonah it is related how the prophet, Jonah, disobeying a mandate of God, fled on a ship for Tarshish. During the voyage a terrific storm came up. Superstitiously looking among them for its cause, the sailors, on learning that Jonah had “fled from the presence of the Lord,” thought they had it. They threw Jonah over- hoard and “the sea ceased from her - » After many adventures Jonah finally completed his errand, which is another story; but he had given us s word which will stay in our language forever, to indicate & harbinger of ill fortune, (Copyright, 1934.% “I’'m Teaching My Child to Be Happy When ‘Alone,” Says Wise Mother—Thrown on His Own Resources. KNOW a woman who has a small child, whom she puts in & room alone every day for several hours, with only two or three simple toys with which to occupy himself. No one speaks to him. No one entertains him. He is thrown absolutely“upon himself for diver- n, “I am trying to teach him how to develop his own resources,” says the mother. “I am trying to teach him how to find companionship and entertainment in his own society. I am trying to save him from the curse of loneliness that blights so many lives. I don't want him to grow up to be one of those who always have to live in a crowd and be going places and doing things in order to be happy. I want to try to help him make his life as self-contained as possible, “C)F COURSE, I don't want my child to be a hermit or to be anti- sowal in any way. I want him to grow up to be companionable and what we call a good mixer, nn}i to enjoy the society of his fellow creatures, but I don't want him to’'be simply sunk if he has to be by himself. “It has always seemed to me that no people are so much to be pitied as those who are such poor company for themselves that they are bored to death when left alone. Yet the world is full of these unfortunates. You see them crowding places of amusement, going to see dull and stupid plays and pictures; sitting around pool rooms and hotel lounges, listening to tedious tales that they have heard a hundred times before, recounting their symptoms and describing their major operations and repeating the inane things their children said. “THEY are not entertained or amused or even interested, but it passes the time and saves them from the thing they dread more than any calamity on earth, and that is being alone. No men and women are 50 poverty-stricken as those who have no resources within themselves, and none are so rich as those who can say ‘with the poet, ‘My mind to me a kingdom is." “For those who are dependent upon the outside world for enter- tainment, who must run with the gang and be in the midst of the bright lights, inevitably end in spiritual bankruptcy. For there comes a time of grief or misfortune or old age, when the crowd melts away and the lights go out, and one is of all men the most miserable if he has not learned to live alone. “BUT this misfor@ne can never happen to those who have within themselves the ability to make their own happiness. They are never bored because their minds are filled with the wisdom of the ages that they have garnered from books, and with the memories of the + thrilling things that they have seen and done. No companion could be more entertaining and amusing than their thoughts. They can c]hum with themselves and, in reality, are never less alone than when alone. “And think of the tragedies that are caused by loneliness! The lives that are wrecked by it! The chief of police of a great city once told me that loneliness was responsible for more boys and girls going astray than any other cause. He sald a boy would come to the city from a farm or a village where all of his life he had lived in close association with his neighbors and had his part in their activities. "IN THE city he would know no one, have no companionship, no one to run around with, nobody to talk to, no chance to make any social contacts. It would be easier to get in with hoodlums than with decent people, and before he knew it he would be palling up with crim- inals. The girl would have the same experience. She would be young and pretty and craving good times and missing her old boy friends and the parties at home. She would be so dead lonely with nowhere to go and so sick of her dreary hall bed room that she would let some man pick her up on the street and give her a dinner and take her to a dance hall. And loneliness would have set her feet on the downward path. “And look at the foolish marriaged that loneliness makes people contract! It is enough to make the very angels weep over the misery that men and women bring upon themselves by marrying unsuitable wives and husbands, just because they couldn't stand living alone. Whenever you see a brilliant, successful, middle-aged man dragging around a silly, frumpy little wife, who isn't in his class by a million miles, you don't need to be a Sherlock Holmes to deduct that he mar- ried his landlady’s daughter or the girl who worked next to him or the waitress in a cafeteria where he got his meals or some girl with whom he was thrown when he first came to town to make his fortune, and when he was so lonesome that any woman who would talk to him looked good to him. “ AND look at the widowers who were so lonesome with their homes broken up and no wife to boss them, that any woman could grab them off and rush them to the altar! And recall the innumerable widows we have all known who have married boys young enough to be their sons, or fortune-hunters or deadbeats or men who wasted their money and broke their hearts just because they were lonely and wanted companionship. “It is because loneliness can do such awful things to us that I am trying to teach my child how to avoid this danger, by being good company to himself.” DOROTHY DIX.

The Romance of Your Name. BY RUBY HASKINS ELLIS, Bedford 'HIS surname is a very anclent one and was no doubt assumed as a surname from the local or place name Bedford, a town and shire in England. The word is a combination of “bedan,” meaning battle, war, slaughter, and “ford,” meaning a shallow place for crossing a stream of water. The old Welsh “byddin-flordd,” meaning the route of an army, was perhaps the earliest application of the name. The coat of arms here illustrated was borne by Bedfords who were early settled in Pennsylvania, Virginia and other Southern States. Thomas Bed- ford (1730-85) of Charlotte County, Va.,, was a landed proprietor and a member of the Committee of Safety in 1775. He was born in Goochland County, Va. His descendants are now well scattered, some of them being found in the Far West. Bedfords in Pennsylvania were engaged in the shoe manufacturing business, (Copyright. 1034.) o Little Ben ny BY LEE PAPE.

In today’s hand, South realizes that he must lose a spade, a heart and a club, unless the king-jack of hearts is in the East hand.

If South makes that play, West's jack will drow, everything absurdly simple. South can now drive out the king of hearts. West will probably shift to a diamond. South can draw East’s last trump and play a club toward the king in dummy. The king of clubs and the king of diamonds will give him two spade discards. Volia!

THINK I like best the kind of beauty that can be achieved,” said ' Helen Hayes, who had Just stepped out from the glare of the Klieg lights to answer my question, tapping her garish yellow movie make-up with a powder puff to repair the damage of a hot day. “The kind of beauty that grows from dreams and inspiration is much more satis- fying to me,” she said with an airy, gesture. “For in- stance, I like the New York skyline because I a m thrilled about all the things that put it there. And there is that mo- Hel ment of wonder e as you motor down Central Park and see the buildings about you that makes you feel the achlevement of other people and the inspiration of develop- ment. “But personal beauty, Miss Hayes?" I asked, as a far-away look came into her eyes and she seemed to lose her- self in Central Park again. “Oh, that applies to our faces, t00,” she replied. “Don’t you like to see & face that is attractive through the person’s own effort, rather than one which is born beautiful and remains unchanged? “Mental beauty is a great deal more than physical appearance. so much better than the beauty that is thrust upon you, don't you think?" sald Miss Hayes, her blue eyes very earnest under the mascaraed lashes. “But you see I like simple things and they seem more beautiful to me!” “Do you approve of using cosmetics then?” I asked fearsomely. [{3 It lasts | “T believe in cosmetics because I l'ke the effect of them upon myself,” she said. “If ] am feeling blue or fatigued in the morning I can’t get rouge, lip- stick and powder on fast enough. After I have used them my spirits go soaring and the depression is over for ‘The whistle blew for silence and for Miss Hayes to resume an affectionate attitude toward Robert Montgomery under the camera’s unflinching eye, Carrie, her devoted and willing slave, ran forward to fix a recalcitrant blond lock, her eye quick to catch any defect in make-up which would not show her favorite at her best. Carrie was far more Informative about the beauty secrets of her mis- tress, For instance, she always has a warm tub of water loaded with bath salts ready for Miss Hayes the minute she arrives from work. This is her rest “remedy.” She never takes pills for headaches or “tired feelings.” A bath relaxes her and 8 or 10 hours' sleep keeps her, as Carrie put it, “fresh as a daisy.” Women envy her diminutive figure on the screen or stage. But the very ones who would give anything for that petite appearance probably would not spend the half hour a day in exercises to keep so well proportioned. Mics Hayes never weighs more than 9) pounds—an extra pound without ex- ercise often is not evenly distributed so she takes her “daily dozen” regu- larly. Miss Hayes has a weakness, even | Carrie admits. She has regiments of bottles filled with toilet water. Carric has to pack them at each move, Light flower scents in almost every one of them. It keeps Carrie busy, but she | likes it, evidently having taken the idea of achievement to heart.

BY WILLIAM HOWARD HAY, M. D. Secondary Anemia. ECONDARY anemia is a de- struction of the red blood cell faster than it can be normally manufactured. It is not infre- quently true, however, that in many cases of primary anemia there is a secondary destructive agent at work also. It is the combination of these two conditions that accounts for those very fulminant cases of anemia that run such a very short course, & few weeks in some instances com- prising the whole decline. To overcome & purely secondary type of anemia it is necessary to know the cause of the destruction of the red cell and remove this cause. Without specific knowledge of all the toxins pres- ent, it is usually enough to realize that the destructive agent is a toxin of some kind. If this cannot be found as a drug or some extraneous toxin, it is safe to assume it is manufactured in the body itself. Apply to its re- moval, therefore, the very same rules applicable to all toxic conditions. The most frequent of the internal intoxications arise in the colon, as in the primary type. Consequently at- tention to this every day by means of the enema is a necessary precaution, after which the same rules of eating should be applied as are necessary to raise the body's resistance to all in- toxications of every character. Base-forming foods instead of the acid-forming sorts for a few weeks, after which cultivation of the habit of eating largely of the more vital foods and less of the refined and devitalized types (and also separation of all the Wm.

The development of any irritating | toxin in the body, daily absorbed and circulating in the blood stream, is a potent cause of destruction of the red | cell. Likewise, certain drugs, as ar- | senic, if used too freely, will destroy the red cell, perhaps faster than it | can be created by a normal rate of | manufacture, resulting in secondary | anemia. Of late it is customary, perhaps we might say it is fashionable, to blame some focus of infection for this type of anemia. And fh not a few cases this destructive action may be definite- ly traced to such local focus. However, this leaves unanswered the question of why such focus develops, and if deleted what assurance we have that the causes of this are not still operative, and will result in cre- ation of still other foci. Without removal of any discover- able focus, it is usually sufficient to detoxicate the whole body, which is | enough to nullify the absorption from an active focus. At the same time detoxication will guarantee against the future formation of similar areas cfl;mtrihuuon of toxic material, we treat every secondary anes ulwxics!auwewmbemuz::;: side. Eventually,stoo, we shall be re- warded by not only recovery, but by the positive assurance that future at- tacks on the blood of similar character will not be made, 2 As in all other diseases the only constructive treatment is a discontinu- ance of the causes. If the remote cause is always a toxic state of the blood, this can always be corrected, and a more recent cause, or exciting cause, will soon cease to act, for the cause of all local foci of infection is first a gen- eral state of lowered body nutrition, from toxic accumulation and deficient feeding. el Cleaning Method.
