Woman With Iron Deficiency 1 1 A correspondent asks: "How does the modern girl differ from 'the girl of the past?" ii Well, the modern girl differs from the girl of the past as a jeep from a limousine, as holding on to Mama's hand differs from i telling Mom where she gets off. Underneath, of course, there is still the same female person but Nutritional deficiency anemia, iron deficiency anemia, hypochromic anemia it makes little difference which term you chooee but considerable difference which form of iron you take for the anemia. That $1.98 word means lower, under, beneath, down or lest than normal or standard color insufficient hemoglobin, iron coloring matter.
Typical case of hypochromic or! jaw iihat is about all of her resem-: blance to the maiden of yester--year. The modern girl no more thinks or acts like the girl of the past, or has the same ideals and aspirations than she dresses like Tier. Take health, for instance. The girl thought it and refined to be frail and "5 In our great-grandmoth-Ter's time semi-invalidism was a 'cult, and perfect ladies swooned at the sight of a mouse and died if their lovers proved unfaithful. The modern girl considers it a disgrace to be sickly, and if any of them has an ache or a pain they never men- tion it.
If their sweethearts jilt I them, in about two or three days they have found themselves new 'ones. The girl of the past was abys-'mally ignorant of the world.

Q. Has divorce become easier in recent years? W.I.H. A. Russell Sage Foundation investigation of divorce this country showed that the trend in almost all the states has been toward making divorce more difficult. This is also true of remarriage after divorce.
Q. How long should a good watch that a good watch, with proper care and regular cleaning, should last for 200 years without wearing out. Q. Are there any bowlers who can bowl down pins on two alleys with one1 ball? J.S.N. A.
The American Bowling Congress says that a number of- bowlers have performed a trick shot whereby they could knock down pins on two alleys with one ball. This is done by placing a pin about 10 to 15 feet in pront of the normal positions of the other pins. The trick shoot expert would hit this pin in such a manner as to make it fly over the gutter on to the adjacent alley, his ball deflecting over and on to the pins of the alley on which it was rolled. Q. What was the date when meat was first rationed during World War II? R.R.
A. Meat rationing was not begun until March 29, 1943. Q. Are dreams more frequently pleasant than unpleasant? R.C.M. A.
Surveys show that only one dream out of three is wholly pleasant. About one person in five has nightmares. Q. How is it possible for a large number of aunts to follow one an other in an almost perfect line? LUM. A.
Wherever it goes an aunt leaves a faint trail of formic acid and this the fellow aunts smell and ioiiow. ine antennae serve as organs of touch and smell. Q. Where did the King of Eng- Faith? P.E.L. A.
The title was con- Faith? P.E.L. A. The title was con ferred upon Henry VIII by Pope Leo in 1521 as a reward for the King's treatise against Martin Luther. Though Pope Paul III later deprived Henry of the title, it was confirmed to him by Parliament and has been used by his successors. Q.

She never even had a frank conversation with her own inother, or was warned, except in i a general way, of the temptations and dangers she was bound to en counter. The modern girl is cynical and wise beyond her years, and when she makes a detour off the straight and narrow path it isn't through ignorance.
And she is brutally frank, bhe discusses topics with i any casual male acquaintance that her grandmother wouldn have whispered to her husband, or her physician in the secrecy of her boudoir. The old-fashioned girl was help- less. She was taught no trade or profession and had no way by which she could earn a dollar. She j. knew nothing about business, othing about how to take care of 5 'herself.
Mother and Father treat-f'ed her as a child until she got married and her husband held her dn tutelage the balance of her life. Practically every modern girl is self-supporting and knows her way i about just as well as a boy does. She is free and independent. She jtakes care of herself among men i w'hom she works all day, and she sees no reason why she should be chaperoned in the evenings. The old-fashioned girl looked at marriage from a different stand- point from the modern girl.
She regarded it as a until -death-do-us- part contract, and if the marriage turned out badly she suffered and Graceful Silhouettes Mark Collections Of Miller And Sondheim In New York or perhaps ssimtlatinf In fuf- icient quantity for perhaps several years that's why you ire tnemic Questions and Answer.

Htbrtu 6:1. Read vt. 1-12. One of the bad habits of some conscientious Christians is that of thinking too much about their un-worthiness. It is one thin to be humble before God; it ii something else to be always belittling oneself.
We should not confess theame faults over and over again; God has put our sins behind his back forever. He has forgiven us. Have we forgiven ourselves? Or do we find a perverted pleasure in reviewing unhappy memories? Do we suppose that this vicious habit a mark of superior virtue? Let this day, then, see some solid progress in self-control, in patience, in kindly appreciation, in courage. Wa grow by what we feed on. A victory, however small, strengthens us for still more victories.
Goodness creates its own momentum. Happiness makes for power. AH things can work together for good we love God and press on. Let us not forever be making new starts from the same base: but ro from strength to strength. God will meet us more, far more, than nair-way.
Let Us Prayt God, my Heavenly Father, plenteous in mercy, and more patient with me than I am with myself, give me grace to accent this new dav as a new be ginning, and by Thy help to go on in faithfulness to the eventir's pnd to the days that lie ahead. In Jesus' name. Amen. ROBERT Y. JOHNSON.

(After all how often can a fashion editor say that skirts are circular, shouldersrounded, waistlines diminutive, length 13 inches, without boring herself and everyone else to distraction.) However, the Anner Miller collection of clothes for spring 1948 proved to be really refreshing. Designed by Earl Luick they have a feeling of gentility and good taste without the least suggestion of striving for effects. The clothes are beautifully designed and skill fully executed with a strong accent on emmity. An especially new and appealing note is achieved with the "mnrnin? plorv" silhouette in JIV It!

The tongue looks shiny, "bald" (absence of the normal velvety tufts or papillae, and about the edges it shows the indentations from the teeth. These characteristic appearances of angles of mouth, tongue and nails are attributable mainly to other nutritional deficiencies which seem to go hand in hand with iron deficiency in such cases notably riboflavin and thiamin and niacin deficiencies (these are components of vtamin complex). In the pamphlet Nutritional De ficiency Anemia (for copy send stamped envelope bearing your address and ask for it in writing, not with a clipping I will not send it to any one else than the person who signs the request I explain how much and what form of iron one with simple anemia should use, not as medicine, but as a supplement to the everyday diet.

It's fashioned of black-and-white wool-check, faced with brilliant red wool and creates a dramatic effect with its full black skirt. Center: Herbert Sond- words has "taken the middle of the road" silhouette this year. Here the silhouette is either slender or wider to meet every woman's requirement. There's never too much of anything in the collection. It's never "too full, or too flared, or too squared." The jackets have a torso look and there is a strong accent on the small waistline.
Many skirts are knife and cartridge pleated in this collection and there's a particularly lovely treatment with back interest deriving from slim fronts and center back flares. In the suit collection there is a wealth of jacket-appeal with loads of variation. There's the wonderful little directoire suit combining a brief black jacket with crisscross braid frog fastening and a full flaring fawn color skirt.

Sun In Capricorn General Tendencies Politics and social life both do well under today's influ- ences, with old and young respond ing according to the various turns of the day. The strongest tide seems to come around noon, with a second swish toward the middle of the evening. Apparently a diplo matic approach is the big thing here, tact and consideration pay- iing more than their face value.
The moon is now in the sign of Aries, ana it would be wise to avoid acids, sharp tools, electrical gadg ets and such household hazards as a slip on the stairs or in the bathtub. If It's Your Birthday. Family matters should reach a climax during the coming Summer this should not be a surprise to you, for you must have felt some tension in this department before now. You do not have to push events, for conditions will arise which will take care of all that for you; you have merely to be sure In your own mind of the course you think best to follow. Sudden events lie ahead, not only for the year of 1948 but for the next four years a good long time for unsettled emotions.
Please be sure not to make mistaken judgments during this period.

It only took him a few months to decide, but the rest. of the world has been, familiar with astroloev for countless centuries, earlier than any recorded history can point for its origin. There must be something to a subject which can interest able minds for thousands of years, for otherwise its errors would have found it out.

It's an inimitably graceful, delicate silhouette, seen in a number of dresses and suits. Another delightful feature is the prism silhouette. For this silhouette Earl Luick who is also a talented decorator derived his inspiration trom the sparkling crystal prisms of chandeliers and candlesticks. The fabric prisms which are about one-half-inch wide are seen in a series of beautiful tiered dresses which create lovely fluid movement over sheath-slend er skirts.
They also have a most flattering way with a swath at this house and show a number of dresses that outline the form- divine.
