PFS
REGINA
HE queen of Heaven, Maria, has
votaries called by the Italians Re
gina or Reina. Reina was found more
frequently In Florence. In France,
Regina became Reine and Reinette, the
former also being a favorite In Ger
many. All, of course, are translated
te mean queen
The natural conclusion would be
that the name Regina Is merely the
Latin word for queen given a capital
ized Initial letter, but another explana
tion of its origin, and one most gen
erally accepted, is that it is one of the
many evolved from the Latin rego
meaning rule. If such Is the case It
hax a history as full of adventure as
un Arabiau Nights and Is indeed an
heroic nume for a woman to bear.
The first Rganar was that hardy soul
who, after ravaging France, was put to
death in England, whereupon his fierce
sons In revenge swept England with
merciless devastation, His name there
fore became a dread one und in some
manner was changed to Rene. Al
once Renee became popular as a feml
nine name since the younger daughter
of Louis XII of France hore it. When
she married Into the House of Este
her name was changed into Renata, 1
form which Is very pleasing to thy
Spunish and Italian. The old Dutch
form, Renira. Is quaint and quite
pretty. The Teutonic Influence mukes

The squamarine is Regina's jewel
Much superstition centers about thi

since by Its paling color, it gives evi

What Is an Infection?
1934, Western Newspaper Union.)
T HERE are good and bad citizens
in the Invisible world, Just as
there are good and bad men, wild dan-
gerous animals and tame useful ani
mals, 80 there are good and bad gerins,
The good germs are those which
help man do his work, The yeasts
that raise the bread, the germs that
sour the milk, the “bugs” that flavor
the different kinds .of cheese, the
“mother” that turns cider to vinegar,
the germs that sweeten the soll—all
these and many others are good germs.
The bad germs are those, which,
when they grow In or on the human
body, make some poison which harms
the body and may kN it,
The diphtheria germ, which grows
on the mucous membrane of the
child's throat, just as mold grows on
bread, makes a poison as it grows,
which the child's throat absorbs, It
Is the polson the germ makes, and not
the germ itself which kills the child,
*The tuberculosis germ, which grows
only In the dark and which dies In
the sunlight In a few minutes, Is
breathed Into the lungs, where, In
growing. it forms a littie cheesy lump,
which softens and breaks down, form-
ing a little hole or cavity In the
lung. Tuberculosis of the lung was
called “consumption” because the lung
was literally consumed.
What is an “infection” and what
happens when a cut place in the skin
becomes Infected?
When the skin is cut, the blood
oozes out of the torn blood vessels,
If kept clean and let alone, the blood
thickens and hardens, forming an alr
tight scab wound. Under

and, as we say. healing takes piace.
The scab shrinks, dries up and fnils

ter becomes white and which furms a

But suppose some one of the four
or five germs which are called “pus
germs” get Into the wound What

to live In dry alr. A great zoologist
once said. “Man came from fishes and
he still retains some of the sea in his
body.” A reasonable amount of mois
ture is necessary for health,
When we live, day after day, In
stove, furnace or steam-heated air, the
dry air takes up the moisture from
our bodies, Instead of giving up mois
ture to us as it should
This constant drying out shows in
two ways, Our skin becomes too dry.
Our heavy clothes and hot yooms keep
it too warm. “Winter itch” is usually
caused by too heavy clothes and too
dry air,
The other result Is that the dry air
parches our throat and lungs. It takes
up all the moisture in our nose, throat
and bronchial tubes,
Our throats are too dry, our skin
is too dry. We are sensitive to the
least change of temperature. We chill
easily. We “sit In a draft” and then
we say we “catch cold” Of course
we do. We've been kiln drying out
bodies for weeks and everything ls
ready for a conflagration,
All living and working rooms which
are artificially heated should have »
reasonable amount of moisture in the
pir. All properly constructed furnaces
have § water pan to moisten the hot
alr. Fill it every day. You'll be warts
er and healthier. Moist air at 60 de
grees Fahrenheit Is warmer than dry
alr at 75 degrees Fahrenheit and much
healthier.
If your house is heated with stoves
keep an open pan of water on the
pack of the stove. You'll be surprised
to see how fast the water goes,
If you have steam or hot water heat,
keep a pan of water in every room
This will not only keep your furniture
from falling to pieces but it will keep
your tungs and skin from drying out,
