"And they are a real benefit ,for i could not dress myself some. Mmes, my left arse was so painful. I ('take Kruschen every morning, and (the pain has now gone, 1 was recom- pnended by my doctor to take salts of (some kind that suited me, and 1 find Kruschen is the hest.

The pains of neuritis and sciatica are a symptom of deeper trouble— the same trouble that causes. rheum- atism, gout and lumbago. They are a sign of ea.. impure bloodstream. They show that poisons have crept into the blood. (Leuschen is a combination of six natural salts, which ensure internal cleanliness and keep the blood -stream pure. New and refreshed blood is sent coursing to every fibre of your be- ing. Then, neuritis, sciatica and kin- dred ills all pass you by. Editors Have Snap Every once in a while some cheer- ful individual remarks to us: "Well, now that the paper is out I suppose that you can take iteasy for three or four days." Yes, how delightful it is that a country. editor has nothing to do be, tween press days. Business runs along automatically. When paper bilis come due money drops off the trees with which to pay them. Subscribers vie with each other to see who can pay the farthest in advance. Advertisers just beg for additional space and the way news hunts up the editor Is also pleasant to contemplate,, • There is something strange about the way news Items act. When the paper Is out, the editor simply goes to his desk and leans back in his easy ebair, looking wise and waiting for a next week's press day. The day be- fore press day the people line up be - tore the office door, and then file in past the desk and tell him all the news of the week. He writes It up in ' 15 or 20 minutes, takes it back and hangs it on the hook. The composi- tor takes the copy and shakes It over the type case, says a few mystic words, and the type flies into place, and after a few pass( s by the foreman the forms are ready for the press a- gain. And the editor goes down and deposits some more money in the bank. It is the greatest snap in the cata- logue.—(Baltimore ataIogue, (Baltimore Enterprise.) (McClelland Barclay Gives Designers Some Advice NEW YORK—Although American women are among the best dressed in the world, they could look still more nearly "the way they want to look" if dress designers knew some- thing about anatomy, in the opinion of McClelland Barclay, the illustrator. "Clothes could be designed not only to improve the appearance of women but to improve their definite defects" Barclay said. "For one thing, they are all design- ed on beautiful figures 'that would look well wearing a sack, whereas they ought to be designed for figures that are not beautiful." "The caterpillar figure is out," he added, "the debutante- slouch, the poiret slump -they're pretty much passe. "Girls now are interested in hav- ing fine healthy bodies, strength, en- iurance, and pep. These aren't found In flat -chested women."

Russian Women Ready to Run Soviet Industry Machine Tool Factories Oper- ate Night and Day Nurseries Attached When, if ever, millions of Russian workmen receive the call to arms, Soviet industry will be run by wo- men, many of them mothers, who are now being trained in highly skilled factory work. The process may be seen in Kalin- in tool cutting plant in the suburbs of Moscow. This is one of the new. specialized factories which are becom- ing an important part of Soviet indus- tiry. In the factory, and others like it, tremendous efforts are being made to achieve economic self-sufficiency by making the machines and tools neces- sary for the manufacture of other machines. Hitherto, most of the ma•, chine tools in use in the Soviet Union have been imported. The Kalinin factory opened two years ago and now turns out 24,000,- 000 drills of the hardest steel' each year. These drills are used in motor plants, shipyards, and machine factories. The building, American in style, is well -lighted and ventilated. Of the 4,500 employees, about half are broad -faced peasant women, most of whom, until a few years ago, had never seen anything more complicated than a plough. Now they handle difficult and expensive ma- chinery with the same skill as men. Women Are Mothers A great number of the women are mothers. They live in large apart- ment houses about a stone's throw from the factory, and nearby is a great nursery wbere more than 100 children are cared for by trained nurses during the day. The children have their own community with din- ing rooms, playrooms and workrooms. Nor do the Soviet authorities forget to imbue the children with Commun- ist doctrine. Nearly every room of the nursery contains a picture of Lenin and slogans of the usual type. As everywhere in the Soviet Union the Kalinin factory is operating at what might be termed "war -tempo." Thei,'e are three shifts a day, of seven hours each. The average sal- ary is about 225 roubles a month, though some of the most highly skilled workers get as much as 700 roubles. Rouble's Purchasing Power It is impossible to translate roubles into sterling and give an accurate idea of the real value of wages. Nom- inally 225 roubles is £22.10.0 but ac- tually it does not represent anything like tbat in purchasing value. The high-grade steel used in the fac- tory which is equipped largely wit Garman machinery, is produced in the Soviet Union, but Russia still imports steel from Sweden and other coun- tries. These imports, according to officials, are only temporary and will :cease if, and when, the Soviet Union reaches its ultimate goal—economic self-sufficiency. ' t_ Walls a Mile Before You Buy New Shoes The right home treatments and shoes that actually fit are two tactors which insure summer foot comfort. When you set out to buy new sports, street or evening shoes for the hot months, go to a salesman who will measure your feet instead of getting your size from the shoes which you're already wearing, When buying street shoes, it's a good idea to walk a mile before you go In to try them on. Your feet swell a trifle after a long- walk in hot weather and' if you buy shoes while they're in that condition, the new shoes will always be comfortable no matter how long you have them on or how far you walk in them. .Sports shoes usually come in wider widths than street models. In that case, you can get them a half size shorter than you generally wear. How- ever, remember that most women need all shoes a half size 'aiger dur- ing the summer months. In other words, don't buy shoes until your Met have been accurately measured, Stockings should be exactly the right size. If they're too long, they'll wrinkle around the tees, causing blis- ters. If too short, the; 're apt to crowd the toes, making them ache. And, as a final word, never wear stockings a second day without washing..A fresh pair each and every day is the rule.

That was in the days when commercial airplanes capable of a sustained speed of 150 miles an hour appeared to have reached the maximum limits of the air speed bracket, and when new trains then being developed in Europe were at- taining 100 miles an hour or more. Nowadays, when the record for an ordinary mail plane between Los An- geles and Newark is eleven hours and thirty-one minutes, it seems probable that the airplane will hold a very de- cided supremacy in the matter of 'a'peed. ' On the recent airmail flight en which the Los AngelesNewark re- cord was made, the pilot, Jack Fry, average 227 miles an hciur for 1,609 miles, with only one stop for refuel- ing. His speed was nearly three times that of the Burlington Railroad's' "Zephyr", which on Saturday aver- aged 77.5 miles an hour for the 1,015 mile distance between Denver and Chicago. But while the airplane has dem- onstrated its superiority, the fact that a train has been able to do what the Burlington's new stream -]fined "Zeph- yr" did puts the railroads rather more effectively into the competition in the speed business. The Burlington's train has to its credit a feat the like of which has never been recorded be- fore in rail history. And for that great mass of gr'oundlings who prefer to have their speed somewhat closer to the earth than is possible in an airplane, the possibilities of travel in such a fast train as this will seem very attractive indeed. Moreover, while in the matter of speed records, the train is usually checked against the airplane, in the matter of patronage it must be com- pared with the bus and the private automobile, And the bus and the pri- vate rivate automobile are still very far re- moved from the stage of tbeir devel- opment where they can go from Den- ver to Chicago between sunrise and sunset. When, as and if trains get to doing as a regular matter of busi- Smash-ups Responsible For Plastic Surgery Advance Cleveland—For the first time in 2,000 years the male sex can have a handscmo new nose by plastic sur- gery, and the automobile is mcstly responsible for the change. This advance in surgery was ex- plained at the scientific exhibition of the American Medical Association by Claire L. Straith, M.D., of Detroit. The automobile influence has been coming with a rush, Dr. Straith says, since the recent great increases in auto speeds. The accidents in cars have thrown occupants against wind- shields, smashing faces, often dis- figuring or removing noses. In these accidents it has been the case of the woman who pays and the man who profits. Dr. Straith says eight times as many girls and women as men go to the plastic surgeon for smashed faces due to auto crashes. But the crop of damaged faces has led to the new surgery for rebuild- ing male noses. On the neck, below the ear, and between the scalp hairline and the beard hairline on the face, there is a strip of skin whichmatches the nose perfectly. This strip is lifted like the handle of a suitcase—that is, its up- per and lower ends remain fastened, one under the ear, the other low down on the neck. The surgical name for this strip is a pedicle. Underneath the pedicle the neck skin is drawn together, ' and meanwhile for three weeks the pedi- cle grows arched in the air, getting accustomed to an independent life. Then one end of this skin handle is cut and bent up to tripes issing nose. The scar which already was formed on the nose is turned under to form a stiff lining, shaped Iike the nose. Upon this is laid the neck skin. The exhibits show noses repaired by this method until in photographs it is not possible to detect the difference from a normal nose. Not Habit • a rnaing DITYDRO—MORPHINE-D, A N E W PRODUCT OF SCIENCE CLEVELAND— Dihydro-desoxymor phine-D, a new product of science, is being given to human beings as a first step in a search for a non -habit- forming type of morphine. The human experiment was ment- ioned, without details, in a. report made to the American Medical Asso- ciation by Dr. C. W. Edmunds and Dr. Nathan B. Eddy of the University of Michigan. It is under direction, the report said, of the federal public health service. The report told of the chemical changes which produced this new substance and of its effects on ani- mals. The modified morphine is one of 190 of these compounds made at the University of Virginia for investiga- tion of medicinal effects. The work has been carried on un- der direction of the National Re- search Council. Today's report point - nese what the Burlington train did for ed out that while such ordinary mor' exhibition purposes, the rash ones will phine effects as pain -killing, depres- be in position to recover some of their sant qualities, respiration changes, lost passenger traffic, which is of digestive results and emetic action course, what they are after, may be found on animals, only human beings can be used to show whether the new drugs are habit-forming. The animal tests show whether modified morphines are non-poison- ous, and whether they have sufficient' new properties to justify farther in- vestigation. One of them, the dihydrodesoxy- morphine-D, became so interesting that the 'report said "this compound is being subjected to clinical trial at this time." On the Michigan animals this sub- stance showed 10 times the pain -kill- ing of women workers of all Christian denominations at Highclere, S. Africa. The effect of Christian missions upon the lives of women would be sufficient evidence, he said, to con- vince him of the worth of foreign missions. An additional argument lay in the devotion and the achievements of 'Christian women hi the missions.
