From which one con-: cludes Mr. Conrad was of the opinfon that not many women possess in full degree, feminine and womanly qualities. Modesty, delicacy, tenderness, tact are listed in the dictionary as normally feminine traits. What girl doesn't admire a manly man! The slang phrase, "he-man" is used to describe the men who has full measure of strength, courage and honesty. Then how natural that men should admire in women qualities distinctly feminine. Each sex is attracted by characteristic fine qualities in the other, repelled when there's imitation of the op- vosite sex. $i Cell Women are released from re- strictions of Victorian prudery to- day--they're free. And experi ence proves they can use this freedom to carve careers in art, the professions, big business. and can enjoy life side by side with men without losing one jota of feminine charm, There's "Ma" Ferguson, Gov ernor of Texas. She's typically domestic. Surely Texas will bene- fit by her government, since the State as much as the family needs the cleanliness, order and comfort-the home touch a wo- man can give, After all, running 3 State is housekeeping on a big Our most efficient busin women in their dress, Taner and speech cultivate the grace and graciousness associated with a Sentiowoman. ! omen to-day are independent world travelers, explorers, 'scien- tists, Drofessional athletes, fi- aanclers, leaders in the profes- sions and arts and in business.

But when it comes to marriage they look for the more -quiét, home- making type of girl. Some man may fall genuinely in love with Madeleine in spite of her wild ways. But if ever a man does truly love her, be sure of one thing--he'll start promptly try- ing to make her over into the sweet, reserved girl of his dreams. Every man is at heart a ro- mantic idealist.

An Escort's Thanks. EAR MRS. BEECKMAN: When a man has tak- en you out for an even- ing's entertainment and is leav- ing you at your home, is it not his place to say first that he enjoyed the evening or your company?

"What's doing this? asked Bobby, who was walking by my side. "Oh," said 1, "hundreds of little blight insects which feed on them and as a result the blooms are not perfect." "Too bad," said Bobby. "Ot course," I said, "I can't blame the little insects. That is their only way of living--they've got to eat. But unfortunately "Yes," mused Bunny, "every. thing in the world lives on some- thing else." They built their round nest, in the ivy, on the brick wall at the foot of the garden, and covered it so carefully with twigs and dead leaves that it was almost impossible to see that a nest was built there at all. And how beautifully did Mr. and Mrs. Wren--for they were the tiny tenantg--line their nest with soft moss and feathers. - "Seems like a pretty big nest for such a little pair," I sald one day. : .

Reed, M.D, Farmer President of the Amerk can Medical Association. The Conrtol of Scarlet ever. F » 3 C fever has long S a ed because it been the scotfge of commutities. ' The prevention of the disease "has been delayed because, until comparatively recently, know ledge of its causation has been inexact. It Las long been recognized as & communicable disease, infec tious in character, and therefore logically due to a particular germ. The fact has now become es tablished that the disease is due to various strains of organisms belonging to the class known as streptococel. y The demonstration of this fact, and the already well established fact that one attack generally gives immunity against other at. tacks, has lead to three develop- , nfents of great practical impor tance. The first is a means of deter mining the susceptibility of a child to the disease; the second is a means of establishing actual immunity against the infection and the third is that if immunity has not been established and the, disease has actuallv been con- tracted it may be aborted. In other words the isolation of these strains of organisms has lead to the development of both preventive and curative anti- toxin, The test for scarlet fever sus- ceptibility is known as the Schick test. The immunization is done by means of the Dick test. These are technical procedures that are familiar to your phy sician, In communications made to the American Public; Health Asso- ciation it was ught, out that in over 12,000 normal persons and in over 300 cases of scarlet fever, the Dick test was demon- strated to have been a valuable index of immunity and suscepti- bility. It was stated that the immuni- ty thus established to mothers was transmitted in protective de- gree to nursing children for varying from 6 to 12 months, One of the most helpful fea- tures of the Dick test is to as sist in the diagnosis of scarlet fever at an early period before the exact nature of the attack is declared by the symptoms. ti 1H TH fr # ; : E F § i g i § i T | th re £35 13 i g i : ¥ i!
