Seven Days 2 A Week

(By Anna Shannon;

1. Monday: Here is a selection of formulas you can use around the house any day of the week. Some are sure-fire tricks of the trade. Try them. They're fun! First-lf you forget if your elec- tric current is AC or DC do this. Hold a magnet up to a lighted bulb-the old fashioned clear-type bulb with carbon filaments. If the filaments of the bulb vibrate the current, is AC. If they donit its DC. Secondly-You'll need this much material for the average plain dress in silk. rayon or cot- ton material which averages 36 to 39 inches wide and where pat- tern is no factor in cutting. Measure in feel, your height from the neck down. To this add the length of your arm (in feet) from shoulder to fingertips. Mul- tiply by 2 and divide by 3. This will be the amount. of material you'll need in yards. Third-To lest eggs l'or freshness-Put the egg in the bottom of a bowl of cold water. If it. lies on its sldc. its strictly fresh. lf it stands at an angle its at least three days

old. If it stands on end you might as well set it under the ncarcst. clucking hen.

By the way did you know that Lily Dache is head of the largest high-fashion millinery business in the world! She is internationally acclaimed as the foremost designer of chap- eaux for discriminating women.

PAIN IN BACK OF NECK. SHOULDER AND ABM

In Texas State Journal of Medi- cine, Fort Worth. Dr. G. Ehni states that degenerative disurb-1 ance and injuries of the discs. or cushions, between the spine bone: of the neck are common causes of pain in neck. shoulder. shoulder blade region, arm and hand. X- ray examination is of great im- portance in distinguishing these abnormalities from other condi- tions. such as a. cervical neuritis.

Although most physicians have seen many cases of injury to the discs in lumbar or lower back re- gions, they are not as well ac- quainted with injury to discs in neck region. It will come as a surprise, therefore. to learn from Dr. Ehni that of 52 patients with ruptured or herniated discs, 37 were in the lumbar region and 15 in the neck region.

In 9. series of 23 patients, 21 of whom were examined by X-ray, evidence of lnilolvement of discs and nerve roots was observed in 19 cases. The abnormalities seen showed narrowing of the space from which the nerve root came out from the spinal cord, forma- tion of new bone in the region causing pressure on the nerve, and the spaces between the neck spine bones were not equal on both sides.

In a little more than half the patients, the abnormalities ob- served, from the X-ray films. were found to be outside the spinalcord proper. The remainder of the patients had small defects that might easily have been overlooked in fluoroscopy and even on roent- genograms (X-ray films) if only small amounts of the substance (dye) was used in the X-ray ex-

The barrel was painted a pale green on the outside and bits of curtains, oilcloth and flowered wallpaper made the interior cosy. Truly it was a gingerbread sort of house, with it's large hinged door in one of the curved sides!

"Take another hundred dollars". advised Kruger. "and in the pre- sence of two witnesses, ask the hotel proprietor to put it in the safe. Go the next morning alone and ask him for it. He will give it to you because. he knows you have two witnesses. The next day go with your two witnesses. and ask him for the hundred dollars they saw you hand him. He will then be bound to give you the -money. You have him where he had you in the beginning-his word against yours!"

It is a question worthy of regard. Prayers link earth and Heaven; from the broad ether. radio gleans wondrous enchant- ment. And we recall many strange coincidences. "Why.

We sat in the sun-porch at the time. watching the sky which had given us thunder-showers with fine spells between, broaden a clearing rift of color in the west. Lawn and trees and meadow be- side. were damp. And we were quiet with, that silence which de- notes thoughts still linger on the storm just past.

It was not too alarming and yet the telephone by which we usual- l.v gauge the intensity of an electrical storm rang out more than once in its duration. And once after a sharp lingering flash of lightning. James commented. his eye on the fields, "Thunder- storms are supposed to make good growing weather. but I'm always glad when one has passed. These years one mostly hears of some harm here or there left in their wake.” Rob had taken himself with the children to visit Karolyn convalescing from her illness at her home in the city. "And she kissed and hugged me." Gage eon- flded later. "but that Jamie!” he shook his head with a perplexed air. "He's the queerest fellow- he's just not made for kissing."
