However, when children are al- lergic to foods and have disturb- ances of the stomach and small in- testine. the family doctor or an al- lergist sho id be consulted so that the health of the child, threatened by these many upsets. may be main- talnedi.
In The Journal of Allerizy. St Louis. Dr. J. ll. Fries describes stud- ies of 30 allergic children, ranging in age from four to 14 years, who had repeatedly had stomach and

For Tomorrow
IT may take more than ordinary poise. common sense and calm to meet the onslaught of a catastro- phic and revolutionary visitation of Uranian forces -. drastic, radical and unpredictable. while on the whole the prospects are construc- tlve and dynamic. peculiar involve- ments may find the 1' "' t ob-t, cure, wavering. unreliable. perhaps confused by the avalanche of sin- i gular developments. Queer con- tacts - workaday and also in soc- ial. romantic or intimate relatioris-- call for particularly shrewd and sensible management. Put the brakes on in strange. mysterious and challenging situations.
For the Birthday
Those whose birthday it is may be prepared for a year of the un- forgettable and intriguing. with turmoil or sensational developments calling for sound decisions and a level head. Yet the mentality is liable to be confused. and the im- pulses petulant. aggressive. Fiery tempers and emotional flares could involve and complicate extremely promising prospects. From all ang- les come stress and uncertainty. but with perhaps 'impossible” denoue- ments in store. Slow down fiery temper. emotions and desires with I modicum of reason and emotion- al restraint.

Instead of squeezing the juice of lemons every time a recipe calls for it. why not extract the Juice of a dozen lemons at a time and keep it in a tightly-covered glass jar in the refrigerator? It will prove a great convenience.
Hand-Cleanin Paste
You can make a good hand- ing paste or soap by dissolving 2-,; pounds of white soap in 5'5 pints of hot water. As it cools and sets. stir in one pound of fine sand.
Glue Bottle Cork
A good substitute cork for the glue bottle is the stump of an old candle. It will not stick and the glue can not spill.

Q. How close to the dinner or banquet table should one sit?
A. The best thing I can suggest is for you to sit close enough so that you can reach your plate with- out leaning forward awkwardly, and far enough away so that the el- bows will not be cramped.
Q. when addressing an envelope to an unmarried girl or woman. is it all right to address it merely "Mary Williams"?
A. No. Always use the prefix "Miss". no matter how young she is.
Q. when attending church aer- vice's that are not familiar, should one copy the movements of the members of ,the congregation. or Just remain seated?
A. It is better to try to do what the others are doing. You will be less conspicuous.
