The utilities have never questioned
the lawful right of other merchants
thus to comoete with them. To the
contrary, with few if any exceptions,
they have welcomed such competi-
tion as an additional spur to in-
creased sales of gas and electricity.
They |iave never, so far as I ever

In painting the walls of a small
room, light colors should be consid-
ered, because they tend to increase
the apparent size of the room.
Dark or bright tones seem to make
the room look smaller..
For a room with a southern ex-
posure, the light wall color should
suggest coolness to offset the bright
I sunlight which enters. Some tint
I of blue or green might be used
with advantageous effect.

get relief now with Oreomulrion.
Serious trouble may be brewing and
you cannot afford to take a cnanoe
with anything less than Creomul-

branes as the germ-laden phlegm

The size of windows is not really
as important as the position of the
windows in the wall. The best light
comes from the upper part of the
window, as that is thrown farther
back into the room and increases
the reflected* light of the room it-
1 self. As far as ventilation is con-
'cemed, the high window again has
j the advantage, as it allows the
warmest air to escape.

of the year here, with 22,168 births
and 12,300 deaths, Blakesiee said
the birth rate was below the 1916
level, and urged women to have
more children, adding: “In both

outnumbered births the first six
months of the year.

Complications May Follow
Respiratory Infections
By LOGAN CLENDENING. M. D.
ALL OF THE respiratory Infec-
tions which occur at this time of
year may be followed by a kind of
general rheumatism which lasts for
days and
sometimes
weeks. Espe-
cially is acute
tonsilltis liable
to be followed
by these pain-
ful complica-
tions.
It is not al-
ways easy to
distinguish be-
tween the
muscular form
and tbe nerv-
ous form of
neuralgia, and
often they are
mixed.
In the early stages massage or
manipulation usually does more
harm than good, and rest in bed
with local applications of heat or
hot ointments, or applications of
hot earths, such as kaolin or anti-
phlogistine or Denver mud, give re-
lief. A combination of 20 grains
of salicylate of methyl, five grains
of chloroform, In an ounce of lano-
lin, applied warm and covered with
a flannel rag, has given relief in
many cases. If the patient is near
an Institution or physician who has
diathermy equipment, this form of
heat should be used because it is
more penetrating than any other
kind.
After the acute stage is over,
fheumatlc nodules may appear in
Dr. Clendening
the muscles, egtremely painful and
sharply localized, and with these
again heat and diathermy, with
the addition now of massage and
manipulation, are the methods of
choice.
QUESTIONS FROM READERS
M. Y. C.: “Is there any ointment
preparation which will relieve the
itching caused by ringworm?”
Answer: A preparation known
at Whitfield’s ointment, containing
salicylic acid, Is effective in many
cases.
R. K. R.: “I am 32 and for the
past six months have been hav- j
ing deep circles and puffs under my ;
eyes. Could they be caused by acid 1
or nerves, to which 1 am subject?”
Answer: They are much more
likely to be caused by nerves than
anything else.
R. E.: “I have lost a baby at
birth with primary hydrocephalus.
Is it likely that such a condition
will occur If I should have another
baby?”
Answer: No. The condition has
nothing to do with hei-dity and is
purely accidental.
A.n independent survey was made recently
among professional men and women—lawyers,
doctors, lecturers, scientists, etc. Of those who said
they smoke cigarettes, 87% stated they personally
prefer a light smoke.
Mr. Melchior verifies the wisdom of this pref-
erence, and so do other leading artists of the radio,
stage, screen, and opera. Their voices are their
fortunes. That’s why so many of them smoke
Luckies. You, too, can have the throat protection
