Mostly Women
Burned Fatally
Although Children
Under Five Are Frequent
Victims Of Carelessness
About 45 per cent, of fatal burns
occur during the first five years of
life, says Dr. Jobo, W. S. M,eCu1-
lough, of they Health League of
Canada. Why is this, Chiefly ,be-
cause of the carelessness, of par-
ents, terser and; servants. Three
out of five death -dealing burns oc-
cur lei women and girls. From the
foumth to the b intyfifth year,
there i* a relatively high, death -
rate In females, Between the ages
of five and nine, twice as many
gi1.15 as boys die from burns. Alter
tlhirty-tlye Cheer is a. higher death -
rate from this cause in men than
in women, in old •age and the vete is
again higher in: women. Burns in
women are more Drebuent because
of the type of dress the wear:
These fatalities in women usually
occur in the home, They are com-
moner le winter than in summer,
The danger or a burn usually de-
pends upon the extent of surface
skin Involved. The simplest and
most convenient househ•o}d remedy
for a burn or, pay, the nest two de-
grees is the application or a strong
infu.oion• of tea, This remedy has
been tame by the Chinese for 5,000
years. In. all cases of ney severity
the ale of a doctor is. necessatry,
bur the use of tea as• an' emergency
measure will • relieve the pain and
make 111e victim of a burn com-

WHY SHORTNESS OF BREATH..
A person who breathes comfort-
ably whew, at rest, but gets out of
breath when some physical exercise
(is• taken naturally wants to know
the reason,
In the young and micbdile-aged, un-
usual shol-tnese, at breath on exer-
tion in the absence or lung or heart
disease, is doe to being "out of
condition." The causes of being
"out of condition" are:
1. Want of regular exercise,
which makes the heart as well as
041101• muscles flabby and unequal
to extra effort,
2. Obesity, that is, being over -fat.
This 1* always dile to the taking of
too much food, as well as to the in-
variable lack of exercise taken by
obese inddvidbnals.
3. Over•indulgenice in tobacco Or
alcohol,
4. The absonption of poisonous
shhbseences from teeth, tonsils, bow-
els, etc,
5. All condlb!ons of general deb-
ility as front ilin.ess, under-mourlsh-
ment or too long confinement M-
etiers,
6. Anaemia—that is ' spoor blood.
in such cases the blood leeks
colour, the heart is undernourished
and the oxygen supply to the lunge
is• ad a. low level.
The ,most important of all causes
of shortness or breath is in the case
of disorder and ,disease' of the

eSNAPSlIOT CUIL
OUTDOORS AT NIGHT ' l
Flash bulbs make outdoor snaps possible at night, even with slow lens
cameras. Here, lantern provided atmosphere, but flash bulb, held above
camera, supplied light needed far detail In subject.
UNTIL a few years ago, snapshots
outdoors at night were rather
hard to make. Now, thanks to extra
high speed film, thousands of snap -
shooters take them. The fast film
plus a fast lens is sufficient for
brightly -lighted street scenes and
flood -lighted buildings.
For outdoor pictures of people at
night,all one needs is a camera that
can be set for a time exposure, and
a "flash" bulb in its inexpensive
flashlight -type holder.
To take such pictures, simply
place the camera on a firm support,
and set the shatter for "time." Posi-
tion the subject to front of the cam-
era, click the shutter open, flash the
bulb and close the Shutter. It the.
surroundings are dark and there are
no lights within the view of the lens,
the camera may be held in the hand.
For flash pictures, the camera
can be loaded either with regular
"chrome type" film or one of the
panchromatic Rims. The distance be-
tweou the flash bulb and the subject
determines the size lens opening you
should use.
Here are suggested distances from
bulb to subject, outdoors, when yon
men No.10-size bulb with the metal
reflector that is a part of the
small battery, operated holder: for
"chrome" type Mtn, 7 feet; for high
speed film, 14 feet. These distances
will provide -correct exposure when
you use a box camera, or a camera
with anastigntat lens set et 0.16..
Correct distance from light to sub4
ject is important; but distance from
camera to subject doesn't matter, as
Ear as illumination is concerned.
Several of the•apecial small flash
bulbs can be carried in an overcoat
pocket. These are convenient to car-
ry on a hike. They can be used for
box -camera pictures if high speed
film is employed—but, of course,
since the small bulb yields less light
than a large bulb, 1t must be placed
nearer the subject.
With flash bulbs, you can picture
winter sports subjects at night, and ,
other outdoor activities, though-
without a special flash bulb syn-
chronizer, do not attempt to "stop"
very rapid action. Interesting light-
ing effects can be obtained by flash-
ing the bulb from unusual positions
—for example, holding it low to ob-
tain a lighting angle whioh suggests
firelight.
With time exposures, excellent
pictures ten be obtained of campfire
scenes at the skating rink or pond.
Campfire "time" exposures can be
made without using a flash bulb—or.
the bulb can be flashed lust at the
end of the exposure, to obtain added
detail in the scene. For true firelight
pictures, the high Speed panchro-
matic films are best.
Take your camera along whenever
you go on a skating or sleighing ex-
cursion,
x°*!aeon, or moonlight hike. A few
flash bulbs enable you to use the
camera -,and "flash" 'pictures are
always unusual and interesting.
