YOU CAN TELL WHERE THEYRE GOING WITH ONLY DAYS LEFT TO DO THEIR CHRISTMAS , A Physician Advises You By HERMAN A. A BUNDESEN. MD. STUBBORN N CONDITION T0 CURE There is a condition which, al- though not fatal, surely is bother-: some and annoying. And, inciden- A cause may be difficult to determine in many cases. Recently, the idea has been pre- sented that it may be due in many instances to allergy or oversensi- tivity. The patient may be oversen- sitive to some food which he eats, to fungi or molds or bacteria, or he may also be sensitive to drugs or chemical substances with which he Allergy Treatment for the itching has been based on the idea that it is gus 10 SNegY- A number ol meas- the secretion of fluids the application of an give some relief. Com- presses of a pr known as Burow's solution are also used. If the inflammation of the skin is due to. contact with material ¢oming from the bowel, the skin area may be covered with zinc oxide ointment before the bowel movement. It is important that all clothing and bed linen be washed with non- irritating , materials. Bleaching agents may often be a cause of al- lergic reactions. A number -of patients with this condition were treated with pyri- benzamine, one of the preparations known as an anti-histamine. These preparations aid ih eliminating ex- cessive histamine, which is formed in the body of those with allergies. Given By Mouth Of 90 patients treated, 57 had satisfactory results. The prepara- tion is given by mouth. It seems to control the itching in the mslorty of patients so that scratching is eliminated. Of course, scratching only tends to make the condition worse because of the inflammation of the skin which it produces. The pyribenzamine was also used in the form of an ointment which was applied to the affected area. If the preparation is going to be effec tive, the itching should be controlled within 10 minutes after it is ad< ministered. Other measures employed con- sisted of omission from. the diet of anything sour, bitter or salty, all highly-seasoned foods, and all forms of alcohol, After the bowel movement, the skin area is wiped with wet cotton and the region covered with a fine | hran '| layer of cotton. The patients were advised not to take tub baths, a QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS O. U.: What would cause pein in a shoulder blade?

FOLLETT During cold weather, apply a rich face cream lightly at least twice a day to guard against chapping. L J > Tell me, pretty maiden, are you afflicted with any cold weather beauty ills? There are certain ones from which we are free in the sum- mer time. Remember, when you were basking in the sun, taking on the golden glow? All gone now, and the complexion is normal again. But winter winds chap it, so you must be busy with the fragrant cream, give your face a good slath- ering every night before you go to bed. Nose red? Let us hope not. That is one good looks grief that will make a girl want to retire to some English Cooks Excel At Christmas Pudding Plum pudding is essentially an English dish, and foreigners rarely know how to make it properly. Here is a recipe copied from the Ger- man "Kreuz Zeitung" in. 1880 for making Christmas plum-pudding: "The cook is to take dough, beer in the course of fermemtation, milk, brandy whisky and gin in equal parts; bread, citrorate, large and small raisins in profusion. This must be stirred by the whole fam- ily for at least three days, and it is then to be hung in a linen bag for six weeks in order to ferment thoroughly." It would be interest- LJ vast wilderness. But don't worry. Hustle up your circulation by brisk walks and salt glows in the morn- ing, and apply ointment of zinc oxide to the flaming beak. Chapped hands are a common trouble. It won't do to even run to the corner mail box without wear- ing gloves if the weather happens to begnippy. Tender flesh can be flayed quickly by a freezing breeze, Don't fail to have your hand lotion nearby, where it will stare you in the eye, rebuke you if you forget to apply it. What about exercise? Are you looking pale, feel that 'you must use more rouge? Stand at an open window once a day and air-condi- tion your lungs. 'What about your feet? You should not walk on cold sidewalks in shoes that do not offer proper protection. See that yours have leather soles that are flexible for ease in walking. but still will keep the tootsies warm. You may need a change of make- up at mid-season, powder a little lighter, cheek bloom a bit more del- icate. But you can play with your lipstick to your heart's desire, Glow- ing lip veneer looks particularly enchanting with winter woolens, furs and velvets. You are entitled to go the limit and you probably will, Hollywood Highlights By BOB THOMAS Hollywood--(AP) -- What should Senta Claus bring Hollywood for Christmas? Some of the stars were stumped for an answer. But most of them Same up with fast replies. Such as Eddie Cantor: "A book on 'How to Act in Public.'" Shirley Temple: "The ability to continue to entertain people," Ava Gardner: "Good pictures." Anne Baxter: "A Broa 2. week." Dinah Shore: "A good public re- lations director who ty let the public know that Hollywood is a pretty sane place, despite a few notables who make headlines." Rar a a n: "A little personal kindness. It will go a long way." John Payne: "A more sober reali~ ge of the immense influence of the picture business and the sponsibilities thereby. A little less concentration on the dollar end-- because if you make good. pictures, the money will come in anyway." George Raft: "More realism be- fore and behind the camera." Larry Parks: "A great deal of honest courage." And there we have a good cross- section of what movie stars are thinking about in this Christmas season of 1948. Luxury Cosmetics Preferred as Gifts Women are anything but pre- dictable about what they want for Christmas. However here is a hint for husbands and beaus who are still undecided about what to buy. Don't give the fair sex things fer the house, give them things for themselves, In a survey taken by the Woman's Home Companion, a group of 2,000 women named the top six beauty items they would like to see in their stockings on Christmas morn. They are: cologne, perfume, dusting pow- der, toilet water, bubble bath and compacts, But here's one you'd probably never guess. A good num- ber of the ladies said they wanted extra specs. Wie Preservers T SHOULD 1 DO ABOUT Addressing Greeting Cards? By MRS CORNELIUS BEECKMAN "This is you~ name . . and this is your ad ... and I've written them both as carefully and was handsomely as I can." A fine jdeal, this, to have in mind as you are addressing the envelope of your Christmas. cards. en will make that sion they should make. Their pleasing faces will "smile" your |' Christmas greeting to your friends even before your Christmas cards "speak" your Christmas greetings. Your envelopes are personal things, and should be personable. They carry your handwriting, char- acteristic of you, heart-warming to your friends. If you are careful about your own grooming, the chances are that your envelopes will be carefully-groomed. But, if, alas 'and alack, you are carelessly- groomed, the chances are that your envelopes will be carelessly-ad- dressed, sloppy, shoddy in appear- ance, Have a thought for your friends , , . have consideration for Post Office attendants and for the postman on the 'route. Write carefully, legibly, and in your best handwriting. Illegibility gets you nowhere . . . and too of- ten gets your letters in exactly the same place! "Address your Christ- mas envelopes plainly" is the an- nual and ever-hopeful plea of the Post Office Department. It is prac- tical, thrifty advice. Four your carelessly-addressed envelopes may very will mean (1) that they will find themselves. languishing among the millions of other letters annual- ly sent to the Dead Letter Office, or (2) that they will unnecessarily and wastefully be detouring about the country in an effort to find out what you really did mean by some of the illegible or abbreviated words you wrote in the address, First be sure you have the cor- rect address, and that you write it correctly. If you know the Zone Number, use it . . . . that is what it is for. 'And concerning abbreviation . . . most importantly, concerning ab- breviations, 2orevintions are not "becoming" to envelopes, and par- ticularly to Christmas card envel- opes, which should not register haste. And abbreviating is an un- attractive, untidy habit that you can get over quickly if you set your mind to it. It takes only a second or two to write a word in full . just about as long as it takes to make the period after the abbrev- jation! Try it . .. write N, J. then New Jersey + «+ Teally 'not much: difference in ceconds, but so much difference in appearance and in possibility-of-safe-delivery. Abbreviations are the chief source of mishaps to envelopes. Bepecially the abbreviations of names of states. Perplexed Post Office at- tendants patiently try to figure out whether Careless Carrie or Careless Charlie meant to write N.J, or N.Y.; Mo. or Me, or Md.; Ariz. or Ark. Tex. or Tenn.; Neb. or Nev.; Cal. or North, South, East, West alsa should be written in full and cape italized in the names of states cities, streets: - South Carolina; West Haven; East Ninth Street. Keep your pen on its right way and, instead of abbreviating, write out Bureek Avenue, Road, Park, Square. ese address-words, writ. ten in Tall pi to the good-groom+ of your enyelopes. On your envelopes, Mr. and Mrs. are, of course, abbreviated. But write "and," not the sign of and (&) in Mr, and Mrs, Give honor, too, to the first names of your friends. Write the names, not initials. Write James (not Jas.) ; Charles (not Chas.); Richard (not Rich'd). And no nicknames on en- velopes, please: Margaret (not Peggy). And always a title before a 1ame . . . Mrs, Mr, Miss. ("Miss# before the name of even a very young girl.) Unnecessary curlycues often cause mis-reading. No need for "To" or "For" before the name, or for "No." or # before the street-number, or for a comma between the number and the name of the street. No need for a comma eithar before or after the Postal Number . . . which, by the way, should be' written after the name of the city, not of the state. Never write "City" or "Town" or the name of a borough as an ad- dress. If the letter has to be re- addressed, this generally leads to confusion. A careful take-off for your Christmas envelopes . . . and a happy landing for. your Christmas cards! Wash your hairbrush in warm, soapy suds, to which a little 'house- hold ammonia been added. Swish brush up and down in suds ~--never let it soak. Rinse in cold water and dry, with bristles up, on a bath towel, away from heat. To soften butter in cold weather, rinse out a bowl with boiling water, and invert this over the butter dish. This has the effect of a het air chamber, and the butter becomes pliable without being oily, ing to watch an Englishman's face when he tasted this concoction. DATE DAINTIES Every boy and girl wants to help mother get ready for Christmas, and a wise mother will give her youngsters jobs to do so that the feel they have a real share in the preparations.
