Keep wetting them with soapy water several times during the day and allowing to dry in the sun. continue this treatment for several days. Then rinse. and the ivory will be white again. Cheese Time can be saved when grat- ing cheese for au gratin dishes by putting the cheese through the food-chopper, using the nne cut- ter. In this way all the small pieces which are hard to grate can be used. Feet Odom Offensive odors of the feet can be dispelled. by washing with a borlc acid solution and then sprink- illflg with powdered boric acid. HowCenllll ny Anne Araiey f , ll I Q. How can I make a' good stucco wash? .A. By stirring Portland cemen: into water until the consistency of an oil paint is obtained. Two per cent of calcium chloride by weight of the cement may also be added generally with advantage. Apply this paint with a stiff brush, or it may be sprayed on the walls. Q. How can I keep the teeth and gums in good condition? A. Try using salt occasionally on the tooth brush, instead of the usual toothpaste. It lnvigorates the gums, and if used with cold water. is an excellent mouth wash of gargle. fQ. How can I remove the small pieces of meat that adhere to the food chopper before washing it? A. Run a piece of stale bread through the chopper. This will clean out all the particles from the knives and holes.

NECK IJGAMINTI Although there Ire not less than 50 known causes of headache, most people simply take a pain or head- ache tablet or. if the stomach is also upset, a dose of bicarbonate of soda and as the headache passes away may forget Ibout it. and not worry about the cause. Just as doctors are finding that many attacks of pain in lower back llumbago) and pain extend- ing down the back of thigh and leg (sciatica) are caused by ruptured discs (little cushions between bones of the spinal column) in the low- er back, so they are finding that headache and pain in the face are caused by ruptured discs in bones of spinal column in the neck. In Annals of Internal Medicine, Lancaster, Pa.. Dr. E. Neuwirth states that headaches, facial pains. pains in front part of the chest and dythetheslas (painful areas) have been observed in patients with disorders of the cervical (neck) spine. Poor posture. or per- haps H. fall on the head or a blow. may cause a slip or slide of the bones and pinching or pressure on the nerves isuing from spinal col- umn of neck, resulting in pain in neck, face and chest. As it is some- times difficult to locate the cause of these pains and obtain relief. some patients become neurotic and resort to narcotic drugs. "Acute attacks of pain may be provoked by emotional upsets, cold or heat. humidity. sudden noise or other factors. Frequently the mas- toid region (lump behind the ear) and the side of the neck are painful. The patient naturally thinks the pain arises in the structures beneath the pain eyes. ears, tongue, lips, instead of in the nerves of the spinal column." What is the treatment for these pains in face. neck and chest caused by a ruptured disc or other disorders of the nerves of the spinal column of the neck? It would be reasonable to give relief to these pinched nerves by stretching the bones of the neck apart-”hanging" the patient by the neck-the use of the machine to pull heels and head well apart as in trying to increase height. Dr. Neuwirth suggests traction on the spine portion of the neck. By pull- ing the spine bones apart. there is more room for the nerves coming away from the spine, ligaments are loosened. muscle spasm relieved and displaced discs go back into place. Pressure is removed from nerve roots. blood vessels and lym- phatics. and pain is relieved with restoration of the normal circula- on. Dr. Neuwirth employed stretch- ing in 47 patients, traction being applied by headsling to the cervic- al (neck) spine in 742 sessions. All but seven of the patients were com- pletely or partially relieved. Unfortunately. the X-ray does not always show this pinching of the spinal nerves, but the stretch- ing is safe and may give relief from pain when cause is difficult to find.

I must scold you for saying you aren't attractive. There's no reason in the world why any teen-ager today can't be attractive. There is information readily available to teach you how to overcome any physical blem- ish or defect. be it straight hair, muddy complex. ion. poor figure. even crooked teeth.

DEAR. MISS DIX: I have been married three months, during which time my husband has heen called into service. The problem is that every week-end he comes home and wants to eat and stay at his mother's. This is causinl m3H)' lluaffcls b9iW5?" ”5- E. C. ANSWER: Your husband is obviously 3 V0f.V l'0ul'lE min. and the fact that he rushed into marriaxe lull before enterlni the NW- ice hasn't given him any time to adjust to his new status. Of course. his place is with you when he's home week-ends. and his mother should make the fact apparent to iilm if he can't see it for hlmself. There's not much sense quarrcllng with him and widening the breach between you; perhaps these quarrels are an added reason for avoiding you. Impress upon him. but pleasantly, that his place is with you, and be sure to schedule a visit to his mother while he's at home. I DEAR MISS DIX: Why is it no wrong for a girl to telephone a boy?

My parents say it isnit, but I see no harm in it. I S ANSWER: While you're on the subject of what a 12-year-old girl should or should not do: she certainly should be able to spell simple words better than you do. A little less time with the boys and a little more attention to school would be a wise adjustment. It l5n't, wrong for a girl to call a boy, but it is unwise. since boys prefer to do their own telephoning and are apt to feel a girl is chasing them if she preempt: their rights. The lipstick question is squarely up to your parents. My opinion .. .- H rllfmyou go to the Ihaw in I group. it's inevitable that you'll meet the boys there.
