Crisis
IN TALKING of and planning for to
day, have you called It Memorial Day
e-r (Imply Decoration Day? It always
seems to me the name one gives It I
significant of the meaning onn attaches!.
Decoration Day, a. It Is commonly
called, li looked forward to particularly
by many working people for weeks
ahead, a Jaunt of soma eort la planned,
fcnd keen Is tho disappointment If the
day proves rainy and cold Instead of
bright and sunny as Ins, very fortu
nately, this one, a
No one, unless ho or sho Is tied down
to an office day In and day out, can
really appreciate a holiday.
I KNEW a man who for the first forty
yoars of his llfo played. His moans
permitted him to travel North In summer
and South In winter nr abroad, always
following the track hcaten out by other
pleasure-seekers.
Holidays, bringing with them crowds
f excursionists, always bored him. IIo
couldn't understand the enjoyment people
got out of herding together In that way.
Then, when he was well Into the prime
ef llfo, ho was obliged to earn his llvlnj?
And no child out of school was more
keenly anticipatory of tho llrst holiday
which came to him!
BUT, to leturn to today's celebration.
It Is altogether fitting and proper that
tho day should bo spent out of doors. It
Is also natural that youth should not be
deprived of all enjoyment because of tho
war which bos come upon us. Hut this

sent to each one or Just a general Invitation to
the firm, or should I Invite the wles of the men T
A general Invitation Is never considered
very complimentary and It is not a good
plan to mix business and social life. As
your wedding will be purely social, I would
Bend Individual invitations to each man

Mrs. John Jones."
Ask Her Permission First
To the Editor of Woman's Paoe:
Dear Madam I met a strl at an evening party
recently and 1 want very much to go call on her.
I know where she lives. Would it ba all right
for me to call there somo evening without having
asked If I mayt I have only met her twice and
I want to ba sura to do the right thing, as she
seemed such a very nice girl. I don't want to
get In wrong. F. D. jc.
It would not be correct to call before
asking the girl If you may. You can easily
wait for an opportunity to see her again at
some affair, or you may meet her In the
street, and then you can ask her if you
may call on her.

THE GOOD HEALTH
QUESTION BOX
By DR. JOHN HARVEY KELLOGG
Tlit: best of all exercises Is walking Far
too little walking is done In America.
As a nation we aro losing the use of our
legs because of the electric cars, motor
vehicles nnd tho rapid transit ways of get
ting about The time and desire for long,
dally walks are lacking. And yet walking,
more than any other exercise, will give the
body ease nnd grace, get oxygen Into the
lungs and put the zest of life Into the very
warp nnd woof of our beings.
There are certain principles to observe
In walking onn should not scramble or
loaf along unevenly, but with a comfortable,
regular stride, n correct holding of the
body and good breathing walking steadily
to a goal Along the way note the land
marks the people nnd points of Interest,
nnd keep the mind In cheerful channels.
Ono can study better, sew and cook better
nnd bo 1 more efficient and companionable
when nroal walk llko this Is part of the
dally program
In the day's work of a man, whether It
is professional, manual or business, drudg
ery and monotony arc lightened If one
walks strength Into his brain and brawn;
If bis work calls for walking In the open
air. he should bo a happy mortal, only let
him do his walking In the correct way.
When It comc3 to belling a bill of goods, or
putting through some business deal. It
makes no difference whether tho profit is Jl
or $l,000,onn, a man can walk to it better
than be ran Hit or motor to It. An Indoor,
sedontarj life Is not healthful nor can ono
acquire nn erect rarrl.igo and a frco gait
without some perslslent effort.
High Blood Pressure
Why Is snls. not rood for ono who tins high
blood pressure'' T V. W.
Salt cnuf.es cnntraclon of the arteries,
nnd this contraction of the arteries In
creases the blood pressure. Tho less salt a
person takes the better If lie lias high b.ood
pressure All fond contains salt enough to
meet all the actunl needs of tho body. The
amount of rait taken should bo xcry small
Indeed. If any Is used.
Treatment to Restore Rigid Hand
What treatment will restore the use of a
hand which has become rigid In an almost
closed toGltlnn? The patient Is a woman sev
enty jear old end lost the use of her hand dur
lnr? sickness about n enr ago. MKS. It I?.
It will probably benefit her to eoak tho
hand In cry hot water two or threo times a
day nnd apply massago In hot water It Is
probable, however, that the Injury Is permanent-
Buckwheat
Is there any objection to buckwheat ns a
food' MAHV H.
No. nuckwhc.it Is wholesome. It Is not
so good a food as pome nf the other cereals,
but It is wholesome There arc a few people
who find some Inconvenience from tho use
of buckwheat Whenever they use It they
are troubled with some burning and Itching
eruptions of the pkln, nnd It Is objection
able on that account Such persons aro sen
sitized to buckwheat and should cither
avoid It nltogethir or should nccustom
themselves to Its use by taking a small
amount until a large amount may bo used
without Inconvenience Such cases are com
paratively rare, howevir
.Milk Diet Harmful
Is a milk diet ever harmful? T. U. S.
Yes It Is sometimes very harmful. There
aro somo peoplo so sensltUcd to milk that
they cannot take It In nn form. It acts as
a violent poison. Many persons who cannot
tako milk as a food can take It when used
ns an exclusive diet
Bromides Harmful to Children
Are bromides harmful to give to children?
MRS K D
Certainly. Unless you want your children
to grow up and be weak minded, you should
discard bromides nnd all such drugs They
aro extremely Injurious to the nervous sys
tem. They should never bo used except on
n physician's prescription.

Natural-colored linen is the chosen material for this barrel-shaped
frock, in which the skirt is cut 111 two portions and joined nbove the

which is rather loosely confining, is tied in a loop at tho back.

By ELIZABETH COOPER
This powerful, human document, written In the form of letters to a
j-nnnr mother serving a term In prison, Is one nf Ihe most gripping literary
products of the twentieth century.
Ill
Dear Kate:
I told you, didn't I. of sending for Jenny
Kerns's mother. Well, sho come and she
was Just the kind you read about In story
books. The moment I opened the door I
knew who she was and I took her In my
room and had her take her hat off and
smooth her hair and tried to make It easy
about Jenny. I told her she had been work
ing too hard, and had caught cold and that
If she was took home where she had the
right kind of things to eat and real nurs
ing, not Just us girls going In when we had
the time, that she would soon get all right.
The mother could hardly wait until I had
finished, and she sort of trembled all over
When I took her Into Jenny's room Jenny
was laying with her eyes shut, not asleep,
but Just like she lays most of the time, and
she looked so white and little and her lashes
were so black against her white face, that
I could see It went right Into that mother's
heart She went up to the bed and put her
arms around Jenny, and her face against
hers, and said, "My little girl, mother's own
little girl," and then I left, 'cause, I am
klnda soft, and I could see It was the hose
cart for me. In about half an hour I went
In to see If they was hungry, and Jenny
was laying there with her mother's hand In
hers looking as If she had found peace. I
Just wanted to put my arms around that
little old-fashioned woman and cry. You
know, style don't seem to count when It Is
your mother The old lady is going to stay
until Jenny Is better, then they are going
home, and I hope we will never see Jenny
again. Being a chorus girl ain't her place
She belongs In a little town playing the
church organ.
But say, you would laugh to see the old
lsdy. She don't fit In a rooming house In
Twenty-eighth street She has a nice, sweet,
old face and she combs her hair back from
It, parted In the middle, and she smiles at
all of us In a loving way, cause she thinks
we havo been good to Jenny And the girls
It Is funny to see them when they first blow
Into the room and run Into her They look
aa If they saw a ghost, and then they set
back quiet, and let her talk She tells them
all about Iowa or wherever it Is she Is
from, and about Jenny when she was a
little girl, and her father and her two
brothers, and how sorry they were when
Jenny come to New York to study music
but they didn't want to stand In her way
All the girls come In whenever they havo
a chance and 'bring Jenny some llttlo thing
from tho delicatessen or some plants or
flowers. Her room Is awful pretty, causo
they keep It Just filled with flowers Marv
Callahan took tho mother out the other
afternoon to a moving picture show She
didn't want to leave Jenny, but wo told her
en must get out a little or she would get
sick, too Mary said that everv one stared
at her.iand somo of the crowd at the corner
were going to guy her hut sho gave them
one look and they said nothing. I stayed
with Jenny and she talked about her mother
all the time that she was gono and about
the home and the little berg where she
comes from. Sho is crazy to get back, cause
I think she knows It won't be for long, and
she wants to pass In her checks with the
folks around her. She said to me, "Oh, Xan,
I have had my lesson, and It has cost me
dear, but I won't kick, as I wouldn't have
been satisfied till I had tried It" But I
thought, if all the preachers could bring

up a few girls who think they want to try
the Great White Way, and let them take
a good look at Jenny, It would be better
than all their sermons. Any girl with half
a brain would say, "Oh, little Oskaloosa Is
good enough for me "
N'o, I won't bring nilly up to tee you,
Kate. He Is big enough to remember things,
and I don't want him to know what a prison
Is, and his first remembrance of his mother
must not be that he saw her behind the
bars.
I know you want to see him and I can
understand it, because I love him, too, but
I would die without ever touching his hand
rather than ever let him see me In stripes.
He will be five years old when you get cuti
Kate, and ho grows cunnlnger each day.
He don't look a bit like ,11m. has got our
curly reddish hair, and his eyes are blue
llko yours Instead of brown like mine. I
suppose I orter have his hair cut, as It
Is no thick and curly, hut I can't bear to,
ns It Is the only thing he has of mine, and
I like to look nt It and feel he Is a little
bit like me. I make him up a bed at night
on the morris chair, cause Jenny's mother
sleepn with me, and do you know, at night
when she Is sound asleep If she hears Jenny
cough, she raises up and listens, and It It
don't stop right away she slips out of bed
and goes Into her room I tell you, I am
going to have a mother some day If I have
to get you to steal one for me. Tours,
