For Tomorrow

Itislikelythatthererosybe an inclination to act under im- pulse or excitement. especially in all personal relations where there should be friendliness. good

ature. social. domestic and romantic affairs could become unhapplly involved by rash. petu- lant or ungraclous remarks or conduct. A ready smile. kindness accompanied by a show of will- ingness to co-operate, may insure sociability leading to cherished desires.

For The Birtlidu

Those whose birthday it is may find their best interests served by maintaining a gracious and friendly attitude when dealing with others, in business as well as intimate and purely personal re- lations. Impulsive words and acts could alienate friendships or be offensive to those whose co- operation and good will are vital in promoting interest and support in important matters. Consider- ate and courteous conduct could be the means of securing needed assistance in developing cher- ished plans. this in business as well as private contacts.

A child born on this day may be disposed to be petulant. irritable and unsociable. thus working against its success and happiness in life.

1. Monday: If you are planning on having older guests soon. thh is what Judith Churchill of the Food Testing Laboratory in New York says:

"Remember age dulls taste. In youth taste is highly sensitive and we're content with simple un- seasoned fare. with age our taste buds lose efficiency. 'l'hat's why older people often become finicky about foods and need more seas- oning. spicy sauces and unusual flavors to tempt them. It explains too, why aging brings demands" for attractive mealtime surround- irligs" and careful attentive ser- vce.

A cute idea for saving space is to cut the door in half lengthwise and hinge with ordin- ary door hinges-you can get them at any hardware store. Then one- half of the door will fold back against the other. will clear the furniture and is easily opened and closed. ' O 0 a

INFORMATION ABOUT CONDITION OF THE LIVER

Gm

The liver is the largest organ in the body, weighing four to five pounds. At any one time, because of the various Jobs it performs. as

the liver. manufacturing bile. stor- ins away sugar. filtering harmful substances from the blood and supplying its coloring matter. De- spite its many jobs, as long as Only a portion of the liver is pre- sent. this portion. large or small, will continue all the organ's ac. tivltles. An individual can live in- definitely with only a fraction of the liver present,

.Much can be learned about the liver and its working ability by biopsy which is inserting an an. strument and punching or draw- ins out'a portion of the liver. This piece of the liver is examin- ed thoroughly under the micro. scope and laboratory tests. from which much information is ob- tained about the structure of the liver and about its working ability are made.

may have some defect or disease present and other parts be per. fectly healthy. it can thus be seen that when the instrument punches out a portion of the liver. it might remove a portion that is defective or diseases or it may remove a por- tion that is healthy.

In the Journal of the American Medical Association. Dre. J. Ed. ward Berk and Harry shay, tram. pie University. Philadelphia. state that while biopsy is a helpful pro- ceedln . a function test which shows the livers actual working ability should also always be made in investigating the structure and functions or uses of the liver. These phy ' ' record their findings or observations in 40 patients, clini- cally suspected of having some disorder of the liver. who under. went the liver function test and a biopsy at the same time.

This double test does a complete job. the conclusions reached by Drs. Beck and Shay being:

"Detection and accurate appraisal of actual or suspected liver disease require painstaking history and careful examination, composite llv. or function tests and liver biopsy. Each of these methods of approach yields information not obtainable by any one alone."

All Children. Equally Bound To Support Aging Perenls

DEAR MISS DIX: I have been married for 22 years. and have four children. all boys in their teens. Four years ago I took my bus- band's parents to live with us: his mother is now 62 and his father

No one else wanted them. though there are two other, boys and two girls in the family. In order to support them I went to work. leaving my mother-in-law in charge of the house and children. The house never gets cleaned. or my clothes washed until Saturday when

- I am off. The grandparents boss the children. who can't even have company without them in the room. Between the children complaining and all the extra work. I am completely discouraged. On top of everything else. my husband has been going out with my sister.

Should I take the children and leave, letting someone else take care of my in-laws? 1 have given the children up as far as raising them goes. and I have given up my house due to his parents bosslng everything in it. I feel that I have noth-

lng MRS. B. H. "'"'m M393 ANSWER: You have been a docile doormat long enough. and no one could possibly blame you for revolting. Walking out of the house with the children may be

a drastic step. but it's probably the only way to show your ungrate- ful fsmily how much you have been doing for them.

SHOULD HAVE OWN HOME r

The most sensible solution to the problem. in the beginning. would have been to keep the in-laws in their own home. with every one of their children contributing something towards its upkeep.

All children. whether boys or girls, are morally bound to care for their parents; your sisters-in-law are casting off their responsibil- ltles very easily when they tell you the daughters of a family have no such obligation. capable (unless they are Ill) of caring for a small house of their own. Your place is at home with your own family. caring for them during the day-not working outside the home to use the burden of your brothers and slslers-In-law. You've been entirely too good to the whole family. and a good jolt will do them no harm.

If the family can't agree to setting the old folks up on their own. the least they can do is take turns caring for them. Two and a half months out of each year wouldn't be too much of ii dl:Illl on anyone's resources. and is certainly a much more equitable arrange- ment than having the entire burden on your shoulders. Should both these possibilities fail, take the children and let the family see how well they can manage without you. It won't be long. you may he sure.

A very interesting and informative book called "You and Your Aging Parents." by Edith Stern and Dr. Mabel Ross, has recently been published on this subject. Read it for further light on your own problem. .

DEAR MISS DIX: For the past year and a half I've been going with a boy and we are really ih love. Lately. however. he has be- gun to drink. I'm sure he'll stop when we're married. He's 20 and I'm 11. Do you think I should marry him now. or wait?

ANSWER: I cannot urge you too strongly to put all thoughts of marriage out of your head for a while. At your age. to acquire a

long ago to us. pointing to a thrif- ty sprig of yellow rose beside the

-. garden pickets. "I'm saving for

Ann." she looked away a bit shyly and we felt she was seeing in mind the other bride who at the begin- ning of her own married life had brought the original bush from her girlhood home. "I know she'll be wanting one" she offered.

And were the young husbands of the long ago tolerant of their help- meets' whims. we wond ? Did those grave-eyed men, g quaint- garbed who now regard us with solemn expression out of tiritypes and photographs in the parlour encourage the like? would they hold the lines somewhat impa- tiently at parting after a poet- msrriage "kaley" with her people while she loitered to gather up such precious stuff? or would he say as has James on a similar occasion: "Never mind bothering with it today. Ellen. we'll be back soon again-poslhl before this week is out." And we -would have to be satisfied though a little uneasy over thb promise. realizing that now. . . after mar- riage. the way thither had all at once lengthened! or to hurry our homing-in a voice meant only for our ears: "I don't think" I would bother with it at all, Ellen-you never can tell what weeds you might carry along . . and 8004- ness knows. we can give away some that we have!"

"What do you intend to do with that?" granddaughter, ecenting something new in our ysrd-clean- lrig questioned this afternoon. We wheeled a small barrow of rskings from a corner of the lawn to a heap in the field by the laneslde. "What do?" Mack echoed. quite as interest " as she. "Perhaps burn it" we offered. She nodded smil- lng. "But I'm afraid my grand- father won't like that." .

James was absent, away in the hinterland of this farm with the younger farmer at the fencing- letting two fields "run" into one to give posturing stock access to the stream. "1 always consider yard.- cleaning time misses something if it hasn't a bonfire in connection" Jeanie commented. coming then to Join us. "And it's a safe wind" we said. "If it doesn't shift" she agreed . . .

Budget cuts Prices or Many Groceries

'Kliv'lON'lVO. May 1'1-several re- ductions in prices of grocery pro- ducts to the trade and consumer fouow the recent budget announce- ment by Finance Minister Douglas tt. These reductions are cov- ered in the current issue of cans- dian Grocer which also points out that in one or two cases where taxes are out there are no cones- pondlng reductions sure of high production costs. In one in- stance an excls tax has been im- posed that resu is in an increase.

The trade publication says that as the 1'! 1-2 tariff against green olives from Spain has been re- moved entlrely. Spanish ollvu will be somewhat reduced. 'mere are two reasons why the duty has been eliminated. At the Geneva confer- ence the tsriff against ripe olives from California was canceled yet there was no corresponding change in support of green .olives from Spain. importers of the latter were critical of this and some time ago pointed out the discrepancy to the finance minister.
