An officer In Long Island city, returning to his radio car after time out for coffee, found a woman making herself at home*. He demanded that she get out, and when she refused he declared her under arrest and drove her to the station house. Her story ' was that she had quarreled with her husband, walked out on him, and since it was 4 a. m., had taken shelter where she found it. The magistrate said that any woman so circuynstanced was justified in taking of a squad car. Ship's Size Ship's size is not necessarily deciding factor in ship's speed, though large ones are usually faster than small ones. But a motor launch can run circles around a big sailing ship and a mosquito torpedo boat around a huge ocean liner. A steamship averaging 20 knots might accomplish 3,200 mile voyage from Rio de Janeiro to Cape Town, South Africa^ in about six days, while 10-knot shiji take nearly two weeks. v "Your stories of desperate encounters With tigers, colonel, remind me of an adventure I had when I was a child," remarked the quiet member of the club. "I ran away from my nurse, having been frightened by an elephant, and suddenly found a full-grown lion glaring at me on my right, while on my left a leopard was snarling." "By Gad! How did you escape alive?" cried the colonel. "Ran back to my nurse," drawled the quiet man. "You see, I was on visit to the *oo." Maemc Mr. Newrich had been asked to distribute prizes at the local school. During his speech he dwelt on the benefits of education. "What a wonderful thing is education!" he cried.

R i 'A INFORMATION FOR THOSE WHO ARE OVERWEIGHT True obesity is a constitutional disorder in which there is a compulsory tendency to gain weight unless the intake of food and expenditure of energy are kept under control all of the time. In this condition, the body tissues have a greater tendency than normal to deposit fat. F«rt«nate1y •many people who are overweight do not have this abnormal condition. During childhood, adolescence and early adult life, a high calorie, high vitamin, high protein diet containing adequate minerals is necessary for normal growth. At this period of life people are most active physically and need more calories. Tints they become accustomed to eating large amounts of food, arc not satisfied with smaller quantities. When they stop growing and go to work they are apt to be less active physically and require less food. But they continue their -usual high calorie diet and the Dr. Nathan 8. Davis m til fa MM State W 1.800 Uw Krtlis portion no longer needed for the production of heat and energy is converted into fat. Sometimes such a gain in weight does not come until the individual changes from hard manual labor to some less arduous type of work. Gains During Pregnancy. During pregnancy and while nursing their babies, women have to eat enough to nourish two and' so eat much more than they did formerly. Then when the baby is weaned they continue on the high calorie diet. As they no longer require the extra nourishment, they gain weight and lose their lovely girlish figures. The change of life in some 20 or 30 per cent of women so affects the balance between the various glands that their diet causes them to gain weight. It is relatively easy for those who are overweight because they eat more calories than they require, to reduce. Those who have the hereditary abnormal tendency to accumulate fat, water and salt find it much more difficult. Many believe that exercise, even violent exercise, is necessary if weight is to be lost. Those who have never engaged in athletics or who are too old to engage in them, consider passive exercise or massage indispensible.: While exercise is good if started gradually and not carried to extremes weight can often be lost more easily and rapidly without it. Exercise increases hunger and thirst and makes it more difficult to stick to a restricted diet and so harder to toee weight. Low Calorie Diet. -- - A low calorie diet (1,000 to 1,200 calories) is absolutely necessary for weight reduction. Such a diet can often be best tolerated if a cracker, a glass of fruit juice, or of skim milk is taken between meals. Thus low biood sugars that cause ravenous hunger are avoided. Any reducing diet must contain enough vitamins, minerals and proteins to satisfy the body requirements. It should contain one pint of skim milk, one egg, two ounces of fish, meat or fowl, three servings of vegetables (one of them raw) including potatoes, two servings of fruit (one of them raw) and one and one-half patties of butter. It should contain a minimum of fats, sugars, sweets and starches and the fluid intake should be decreased. To make .it quantitively more satisfying, eat more meat, cheese and leafy vegetables may be taken. When you have thus lost enough, add to your reducing diet just enough to enable you to maintain the desired weight. If you go back to your old diet, you wijl again rapidly put on the pounds.

She leaned closer to the mirror and worked with the care and concentration of an artist painting a picture. This task at last finished to her satisfaction, she darkened her penciled eyebrows, then turned quickly from the mirror and slipped on a diaphonous, pink dress of tulle and georgette. •"Gladys, you'r? beautiful!" exclaimed Dorothy generously. "Goodness, what I'd give--" She stopped abruptly for what was the use of going on? It was sort of a mental stone wall against which she had thrown herself since earliest childhood. Certainly she could not make herself beautiful by wishing ftff it She could not make men like her and rush her by wishing it; so what was the use of wishing? But it died! seem hard enough net to be popular without having a dazzling, bewitching vamp for a sister. When Gladys was in the room nobody ever saw anybody else--every male thing within reach swarmed around her like bees around a flower. To be sure Gladys never kept her admirers long, but then there was always a fresh crop with equally fine cars and open pocketbooks coming along. A man was proud to be seen on the street with her. There was something about the very way she wore her clothes that made people turn and look. 'By, darling, don't haow when Til be home. We're going to Arwood to the Road house dance." As she left the room there wafted behind her the fragrance of a thousand flowers, exotic, intoxicating. Of course Dorothy was not going. She only had a dozen invitations a year to go to places with men and these she treasured like golden memories to be lived over afterward, bit by bit, in the lonely evenings she stayed at home while Gladys was out dancing and flirting the hours away. Her head ached as she stooped to pick up the underthings her sister had left lying in a heap on the floor. Her head had been aching for days but now it seemed suddenly worse. "Why won't you go to Dr. Winthrop regularly as he told you and have your eyes treated?" protested Mrs. Keener impatiently, when Dorothy told her about it at breakfast the next morning. Why wouldn't she go to Dr. Winthrop regularly? Another thorn in her side and one that she could not explain even to her loving sympathetic mother. How could she tell her that she was wild about the good-looking middle-aged physician who was always so kind and sympathetic. , She would not so humiliate herself--especially when he had never so much as called on her. He had called on the family frequently but then he had known them for years and it was not his fault that her empty little heart had gone out to him in its loneliness. So! she merely said to her mother: "I'll go right down there as soon as I've finished eating. Gladys won't need the car until later. She won't get up until nearly lunch time, I expect." "What if she does need the car?" demanded Mrs. Keener. Dorothy shrugged, brushed a crumb off her smart green flannel dress and rose from the table. 'It's the old headache, Dr. Winthrop," Dorothy said half an hour later, trying to smile. "Yes, your mother called me up just now," he said. She glanced quickly at the clear cut features, the fine gray eyes that so strongly suggested^ gentleness and kindness and a little thrill passed over her. "Do you think it's a symptom of some serious condition?" she asked, a little breathlessly. "N-no, I believe it's psychic and I could cure it if you'd let me." He flushed and toyed with the paper weight on his desk as he spoke. "Oh how?" she asked quickly. "I'd do anything you said." "Is that a promise? A solemn promise?" He shot back at her. She nodded, her cheeks flushed, her lips parted. She was almost pretty as she sat there. Dr. Winthrop leaned over and took hef hand. "Dorothy, this is going to sound strange to you, but you must realize that it's natural. You've developed an inferiority complex because you have a little, rattle-brained butterfly of a sister who is more popular than you are. But remember there are lots of older men who could appreciate you and wouldn't give a snap of their finger for Gladys. I'm one of these--so, as your physician, I prescribe--me." He rose and drew her to him. For a moment Dorothy was too amazed to realize what was happening, then joy seemed to sweep over her in waves. "When a man has lived as long as I have he knows how to appreciate pure gold. Will you marry me, dear?" he asked after a moment. "I promised to do as you told me," she laughed, no longer wondering whether she was dreaming.

War Maneuvers, v » ' SAN ANTONIO.--As further proof that democracy grows ever stronger in America, the United States government has closed the largest real estate deal of its modern history through a simple appeal to the patriotism of its citizens. The deal involves the lending by private land owners of 20,000,009 acres--some 30,000 square miles--of land in the pine country of east Texas and Louisiana to the army of the United States for maneuvers. The area acquired will provide varied terrain and adequate maneuver space for the concentration of a quarter of a million troops, who will .start their movement there within the next few days, and for the approximately half a million men to maneuver there in the> latter part of September. Owners Co-operate. The method of acquiring the land was Simple and direct. When If was established that the Third army would hold maneuvers in Louisiana and Texas in 1M1, rental boards were set up by the army to secure trespass rights for military purposes on land desired for use. These boards established liaison with state and county (parish in' Louisiana) officials, and together they worked out the huge task. In most cases a letter to the individual land owner asking his permission to use his land was sufficient; in others, calls on the individuals were made by rental board officials. In either case, the response was almost unanimously whole-heartedly co-operative. No leases were made for the land, and no rentals were paid. The rental boards, however, will remain in existence beyond the maneuver period to investigate and settle claims for property damage that may arise. The attitude of the average landowner may well be described by a quotation from one letter received by the rental board. Relative to the use of his land, he said: "You can dig it up or blow it up, I don't care. You have to have the land to do your job." No Small Task. From bankers and tenant farmers; from widows, plantation owners and sharecroppers, come answers in a similar vein to evidence the spirit of the individual in the co-operative job of national defense. But even with the co-operation of the landowner, the task of acquiring use of this huge area was no small one. Tracts requiring individual attention of the rental board ranged in size from 7.92 square varas to 600,000 acres in Texas, and from one acre lo 500,000 acres in Louisiana. The total area obtained is equal in size to Denmark, The Netherlands and Luxembourg combined. Many months of detailed work and planning on the part of state, County and military officials was necessary to carry the job through. ; V e l v e t G r a s s S e e d A bushel of velvet grass seed weighs only seven pounds, and a bushel of tall meadow grass seed weighs 24 pounds.

Have you scrubbed and swept meticulously, yet remained baffled by the persistence of a faint, unpleasant smell? A new deodorant for use in your scrubbing and mopping water is a combination of harmless chemicals, highly concentrated, which oxidize and absorb decaying matter, prevent the growth of bacteria and fungus growth, and thus kill odor by removing the causes. It is itself quite odorless. There is another product, a solid cake of deodorant which, suspended in a flush toilet tank, prevents unpleasant bathroom odors, too. _ Tree Owns Itself A white oak near Athens, GaM is unique in that there waa willed to it by its owner, WilUam H.

This leading number combines native Swedish with a variety of Scandinavian double talk. It's a "hummy," hard-to-quit-whistling tune. "It just doesn't make any aenee," said Mangus Halberg, a native of Sweden. Carl Ekholm, also a native of Sweden, came to the rescue and said that the words were Scandinavian slang. "That's Swedish double-talk," he said. "They're new words -- like your slang in this country." "Hut-Sut," Ekholm said, means love-nest, "rill-er-ah" is the equivalent to our "tra, la, la." "Braw-la, braw-la soo-it" means a boy and a girl in love. U. S.
