By loberu Mo mmm' Cleaning Pipes

one tobacco authority recom- mends the following treatment for a pipe: Soak the pipe in cold cof- fee for an hour. cleaning out the stem with pipe cleaners. The col- fee will soften the caked material in the bowl, which may then be pried loose with a blunt instru- ment. stale pipes can always be cured with this treatment.

Tl-IE probability is that the old saw, "a. soft answer turneth away wrath." may be sage advice as a rule of conduct on this day. There are several signs of adverse and exasperating situations - to be met with rhrewd and sagacious strategies rather than forthright and sledgehammer blows. In fact. the mood may be toward the gra- cious. kindly and disposed to friendly overtures rather than the irritable and contentious.

LACK OF THYIIOID EXTRACT CHANGES WHOLE APPEAR- ANCE OF INFANT AND CHILD

Parents are sometimes alarmed shortly after the birth of their baby by the change in the face nnd body of the infant. which was perfectly normal in face and body at birth. ,

The child wants to "sleep all the time." the physical and mental growth is slow. dry brittle hair is Present. the abdomen protrudes. the lips and tongue become thick. there is great increase in weight. yellow tint in the skin. X-rays show that the formation of bones and joints is incomplete.

What has happened to so change the appearance of this "normal" baby?

Most of these cases are caused by underactivity of the thyroid gland in the neck. The infant started life with enough thyroid JUICE obtained from me mother before birth but after a few weeks. early signs of insufficient thyroid extract appear; failure to grow in body length, colic. constipation and excessive drowsiness.

Sometimes an infection will in- terfere with the development of the. thyroid gland or a deflziency in iodine in the food.

In The southern Medical Jour- "Fil. DE W. A- Relllll states that the underfcd child is not uncom- monly mistaken for the hypo tunderactive) thyroid case. These children demand continuous super- vision. Children with an under- active thyroid gland are very re- fspoiisive to thyroid extract. Notice- jnble improvement can be observed Ithree to four days after adequate dosage of thyroid extract is start. ed.

As the juice or extract of the Uurold bland regulates the rate at lllllfll U19 body processes work. early treatment is desirable and average daily doses are 2 10 4 mmlmsu 5 7118-: 4 to 8 months. 12 mg.; 8 to 12 months, 18 mg; 12 to 24 months. 25 to 50 mg. Because thyroid extract by continuous use builds up within the body, Dr. R'3lll.V states that holidays up to 3 Week in lemztli can at times be Sf1ft'll'lz1ven. Good mental develop- ment is the principal objective in treating childhood hypo-thyroid. ism.

As the busy family physician in looking after other members or the household may not notice the appearance or lack of development, in the child. parents should show him the changed appearance of the child. Tine lack of expression in the face (pig-like) should arouse lhem l0 Conslllllns their physician immediately.

and pointed with the purl-white of the hour front. the new works- day week came in this morning. There was a. rare beauty on ev- ery wig and vine and tree about . . .on the wildlnz apple by 9 line and reach of maple wood- lands touched by its Ilory. And the sunrise! with what majesty it. appeared above the dark spruce- elad rim of hills "down along." slowly pouring the gold of its stare into our white clad valley.

"I'm afraid Ellen." someone laughed the other evening as we visited about a. fire "I know more about sunsets than I do about rislngs!" we felt a bit sorry for her as we stood a minute, lost in the enchantment. of this one, on our way to the barnyard this

morning.

not

We had stolen a march on at least one of the farmers, not yet into his boots but presently on his way to his work. we have. eu- tered into a wager-of-sorts with some of the members of the fam- ily that we, the indolent one of all, will one of these mornings find the first lamb of the season. Should we be so fortunate what a. rush the tidings would bringl . . James hurrying to catch a sight of it -- or will there be twins? Commenting with a nod, "I expected ltl"

The younger farmer, to open "the door to the fold" to lead ewe and babe to less crowded quar- ters. And granddaughter, eiirap- tured with any coming of woe stock about. to gaze at the mix. acle. wide-eyed and smiling, elat- ed at the happening.

I 0 0

We stead while the gates of the sun filled . . .and flooded, jewel- ling as it flowed, twig and branch and frosty crystal. The serenity and peace which blesses our early morning at Alderlea was spread about-on resting white fields. on the still water of the millpond. on woodland. on reaches of vnie and hill. Soon there would appear indications of activity in our world about; at any moment the wind of day would move in from the fastness of "up the creek." But now all was quiet and still.

A long minute we drank of its beauty and calm until we heard "Well. Ellen. did you find any?" James was on his way to his chor. ing.

No new stock in cold or stable 01' Plzgery has been found yet, though with Sranddaugliter today we talked of lambs in green men- tions and kittens in a strawy nook in a loft. spoke too, of dandelion: and buttercups as a piece of re. mind-ful white cloud floated above 3 51lnn.V hill - of snowdrops and spring-blossoming plants to rise in time from snowy coverlets. "D0 you know" granddaughter was reminiscent "I don't know what made me do it. but I just had to pick the first tulip that opened last spring. It was red. do you remember? I wonder if that one will be the first to awaken this year?" And in nice signs of the season. now about a month away. we discovered tight-curled fronds-new growth or a fern. We heard too, of a fiirmwlfe "into the h00kln8" and of another piecing a quilt.

Already one overhears mention of housecleaning and whether it. is better to approach it casually. and early. cleaning by degrees or lenve it until "the robin is here and the swallow," attacking then with every energy is still a debat- able question with housewives . . . Not at all argumentative is this one, from James a-wearying in his old armchair: '1 think I got a bit of a chill in the woods this afternoon, Ellen. Make me Ii like a. good woman, a hot black current drinkl"

Her Young Men's Love

11'-Iiuaqpqna

DEAR MISS DIX: Two years ago I met the man of my dream. He took me out occasionally but never said I meant anything to him A year ziyzo he joined the Army and began to write to me. His lam" were just friendly. When he came home on leave he saw me a few times. then the last night he was home he not fresh for the first tlmg, I told him if he thought I was ihzit type of girl he'll better just for. get about me. About a week later I received a letter from him which was quite different from all the others, nnrl ever since they have been more serious. My problem is this: Does he mean all the thing: he writes or nre they just words without meaning? Do you think he could hnve fallen in love with me?

, CAROLYN

ANSWER: I hope your letter serves an a beacon to the girls who believe they must respond to a boy's overtures to keep his regard. They are so wrong, as your typical experience shows.

A boy who is out for an evening of fun will often mnke ndvnnccs to n girl just to see whnt hap- pens. The right kind of girl repulse: the lm'9rll.ik- in: and automatically wins the boy's resprict. If ht-'3 serious, he'll call again with a more gentlcmnnly attiti.de. Hp

Muriel Nissan

HE'S SERIOUS

Such is the progress of your case. You can be quite sure that this boy is falling in love with you. and that he does moon the serloul tone of his letters. Even young boys can recognize the high calibre of a girl with self-respect. A girl of high idcnls, who sols a standard for boy friends. mny not have mule companions fnlllmz over them- selves it) have dates with her. but she will be assured that those who do seek her friendship are worthy of it.

DEAR MISS DIX: A friend of mine has many chances to go out on dates but she always refuses because she has no place to bring her friends. Her home consists of two bedrooms and a kitchen--no parlor. Would it be okay for her to bring them into the kitchen. Ol would the young men object?

KITTY ANSWER: While it is unfortunnte to be so restricted on on- tertainment quarters. mnny dwellers in small apartments are in tin same predicament. There is nothing wrong in nsking a young mar. into a kitchen nnd few of them will object. In fact, most young men are delighted to he so near the source of food. Perhaps your friend could Irnnsfnrm one of the bedrooms into A bed-sitting room? Such a change can he made with remarkably little money and effort. A studio couch to take the place of the bod. ill'i"S.l- ers that can really double as living-room chests. and an Rlll'.II'llH3

hints for such a room.

DEAR. MISS DIX: lily daughter is lnrirricri to a man eight years older than she. Thcy have been nirirrlcri four years and hnvc A 2- yenr-old son. They livcd with me for three ycnrs nnd movcrl nnn.V two months ago. Her husband is a mnmmn's boy. and stops to :0! his mother every day. Yet he fights with my daughter if she wrmt! to come here once in ten days.

MILDRED

ANSWER: A wife is entitled to see her mother as often as I liusband sees his. She may, nnd probably will. have to do som- nrgulng to win this point, but. unless she inkr-s a stand And fights for her rights, there will be constant squabbling over u very important matter. Talk a little backbone into your daughter. You ll prolmhly be accused of being an interfering mother-in-law for your pains. but certainly she is entitled to see her mother once to the ten times lwr husband goes home to miimmn.
