COLD
The modem way to ease a cold la
this: Two Bayer Aspirin tablets the
moment you feel a cold coming on.
Repeat, if necessary, in two hours. If
you also have a .sore throat as a result
of the cold, dissolve 3 Bayer tablets in
H glass of water and gargle with this
twice. The Bayer Aspirin you take
internally will act to combat fever,
aches, pains which usually accompany
a cold. The gargle will provide almost
instant relief from soreness and raw
ness of your throat. Your doctor, we
feel sure, will approve this modern
way. Ask your druggist for genuine
Bayer Aspirin by its full name — not
by the name “aspirin’* alone.

Lets Monthly Discomfort
Many women, who formerly suf

W ITH the midwinter social sea
son upon us and festivities at
southern resorts going at high tem
po, smart women everywhere are
preoccupied with new evening
gowns to add glamour to time, place
and the occasion. Greater formal
ity than in years is the rule, and
women are playing up to this edict
by wearing gowns of rare beauty
and richness.
One may belong to either of two
schools of fashion—that which fa
vors heavy stiff heirloomlike silks
with a regal air or the type which
favors diaphanous sheer silks that
float about one enchantingly as one
dances or promenades in the great
concourse of fashion.
Stiff silk satins such as slipper
satin or duchess satin are lovely
choices for dramatic gowns. The
“delicious” colors of these glorified
satins are simply entrancing—make
you think of moonlit rays that go
glimmering over rippling waves, or
icy blues that crown snow-capped
mountains or the lovely tints of
the rainbow as it enhances sum
mer skies.
To be style-correct these stately
satins should be fashioned along
graceful princess lines with quaint
artfully gored skirts that sweep into
widened hemlines. See the model
to the left in the illustration. It is
a frock of Edwardian period influ
ence done in ice-blue satin with the
new shirred bosom styling. The
puffed sleeves and princess lines
achieve a charming youthful silhou
ette. The diamond sunburst worn
suggests an heirloom that accords
harmoniously with the type of silk
used for the gown—a silk so grand
and stiff it, as was the boast in
grandma’s time, would “stand
alone.”
Some of the newest silk satins are
studded with gold or silver sequins
or rhinestones. To the right in the
picture stands a modern J uliet
gowned in gardenia white satin, all-
over starred with gold paillettes
with halter neck of matching pail-
letted banding. Accessory highspots
include a Juliet cap and a handbag
done in gold paillettes, together with
an exquisite white ermine coat.
Warp printed silk taffetas have
new looking patterns such as col
orful bow-knots in vivid hues on
white or green. Centered in the
group a modem Jenny Lind greets
us in a rustling silk taffeta frock
warp-printed with red bow-knots.
With it this lovely lady wears pale
pink kid gloves embroidered in gold
and pearls. The new and fashion
able gloves featured this season are
veritable works of art. There are
pearls at the throat of this fair
lady and she wears a superb pearl
bracelet.
Other charming versions of the
princess dinner and dance gown are
done in stiff Lyons velvets with
puffed sleeves and buttons all the
way down the front. Rich silk da
masks are also fashioned in prin
cess lines made square-necked, in
puff-sleeve styles which look like
Edwardian ladies come back to life.

FUR AND FEATHERS
By CHEKIE NICHOLAS *
For high-style this midwinter sea
son let your hat be either fur-
trimmed or feather-trimmed. The
model at the top is a stunning fez
turban of black felt and Persian
lamb designed to complement a fur-
trimmed cloth costume or a fur
coat or cape. Smart vogue calls for
fur trimmed millinery. With the cor
onation in sight ostrich feathers are
enjoying increasing popularity. A
lovely British film star wears the
delightful hat shown in the picture.
It is an exquisite black felt with
twin ostrich feather plumes in two
shades of rose. Another cunning new
style for young girls that takes on
an ostrich trim is the little felt
shape that is somewhat a Juliet
type, being a shallow round skull
cap. This is worn far back on the
head with two wee ostrich tips posed
perkily at the front.
BLACK SHEERS FOR
DAY AND EVENING
For daytime sheer black woolens
are smartly in fashion, and for eve
ning the vogue for black nets and
chiffons is everywhere apparent.
Just now fringe trimming is im
portant on the afternoon black
sheer. The narrow fringe, placed
row and row, «forms cunning short
cap-like slee iss with accents of
fringe elsewhere on the bodice or at
sash ends, or that which is tre
mendously chic—outlining the skirt
hemline.
In the early showings the new
daytime black sheers are feminized
with the daintiest of white lingerie
details in form of frilly jabots, and
novel cuffs and becoming collars
and bib effects.
The party-frock nets in black
are made up in full-skirted styles
with just yards and yards float
ing about.
Mustard Yellow and Beige
Favored Colors for Spring
Look for these colors in the new
spring fashions. In fact the vogue
is on at this very moment for these
flattering and very new-looking col
ors.
Best dressed women are favoring
tweeds in beige and gowns of light
weight woolens in beige or golden
hues are the “last word” for mid
season, worn under the not-yet dis
carded coats, in the daytime.
For evening simply styled frocks
of “old gold” satin are very pleas
ing. Some of the newer brocades
are also in this color.
Peasant Jewelry
Carved in brilliant peasant reds,
greens, yellows, and blues, minute
Tyrolean figures are set in a red and
white catalin frame a fourth of an
inch thick. The pins and clips are
one-and-a-half inches square.
Alphabet on Blouses
Letters of the alphabet are spilled
all over the fine cashmere blouses
that are worn with winter street
suits. The letters are usually in
bright colors over a dull back
ground

The Discovery of Insulin
O NLY fifteen years ago, anyone
who fell sick with diabetes was
almost as good as dead. Doctors
knew that diabetes occurred when a
person had too much sugar in his
blood. They also knew that the pres
ence of sugar was due to an im
properly functioning pancreas. But
no one knew how to correct the
situation.
Along about 1920, an inex
perienced young doctor named Ban
ting was struggling to get estab
lished in London, Ontario. An ex
farmer boy and a war veteran, Ban
ting knew practically nothing about
scientific research, but he did have
one brilliant idea.
If the pancreas produces life-sav
ing juices that prevent diabetes.
Banting thought, why not isolate
this precious extract from animals
and give it to diabetic humans?
The very thought of such a pos
sibility set him on fire. He sold his
office furniture and medical equip
ment to get money for his living
expenses in Toronto where he could
try it out.
Some of the world’s best scientists
had already experimented with Ban
ting’s idea. They had failed because
they lacked his determination and
ingenuity. With the help of Charles
Best, a twenty-one-year-old chem
istry student, Banting experimented
first upon dogs and then upon chron
ic diabetic sufferers. With his treat
ment, most of them made amazing
recoveries. The treatment consisted
of daily inoculations of his pancrea
tic extract, insulin. Millions of peo
ple all over the world owe their
lives today to Banting’s phenomenal
discovery.
Ordering From French Menus
Y OU may belong to that great
army of people like myself who
can’t make heads or tails out of
fancy hotel menus. Words like pate
de foi gras and hors d’ oevres, al
ways make me feel dumb. Even
when the waiter asks me whether
I am ordering a la carte or table
d’ hote, I never knew what he was
talking about until I looked it up
recently.
Table d’ hote is a French phrase
literally meaning table of the host
or landlord. Up until the middle of
the Eighteenth century, restaurants
and hotels as we know them now
did not exist in Europe. The old
inns were run on sort of a family
plan, whereby everyone sat at the
table of the host and took whatever
was put before him.
There were no menus from which
one could order a la carte, which
means according to the bill of fare.
No one could pay for each dish
separately, depending on what he
wanted, but had to pay for the whole
meal whether or not he liked all the
courses. Thus table d’hote came
to mean a complete meal served in
courses at regular hours for a fixed
price.
A la carte and other such phrases
were added by chefs who wanted tc
give an impressive air to their res
taurant. They can now buy books
with all the French and Italian
phrases written out, and often use
them without knowing what they
mean. But when you get in a tight
spot over one of them, you can al
ways tell the waiter to “Bring me an
order of bacon and eggs.” They
know what that means in any lan
guage. And then, as a final touch,
you might add, “Sprinkled with par
sley.”
The Royal Game of Golf
C HARLES I of England played
golf near the Tower of London
while waiting for his executioner to
get his axe sharpened. Royalty and
notables of all kinds have played the
ancient game at least since 1400 and
perhaps much earlier.
But golf has become a popular
sport only in the last 30 years. The
invention of the rubber-cored ball
about 1900 is the reason for its
rise in popularity. Before that, play
ers had used little leather balls
stuffed with feathers and later the
gutta-percha ball.
Golf played with the gut ball was
no game for the ordinary dub. When
hard and well hit by the profession
al, it might possibly go 200 yards,
but the amateur was lucky if he
could get 150. Under those condi
tions, what fun was it to push a little
white pellet around with a knobbed
stick?
The India-rubber ball introduced
something new. The dub could get
200 yards and maybe more.
With the new ball, second and
third-rate players could score as
well as many professionals had be
fore. That was what the game need
ed. The first 18-hole course in Amer
ica was not built until 1893. By 1916,
there were 742 courses, and this
number balloned to 1903 in 1923
and 5856 in 1930. So now most wives
are widows on Saturday afternoons,
but it’s worth it!
Glass Used to Filter Light
Glass is a good transmitter of the
visible wave length of light but by
varying its composition it can be
made to act as a filter for keeping
out or letting through particular
wave lengths.

Calotabs Help Nature
To Throw Off a Cold
Millions have found in Calotabs a
most valuable aid in the treatment
of colds. They take one or two tab
lets the first night and repeat the
third or fourth night if needed.
How do Calotabs help Nature
throw off a cold? First, Calotabs
are one of the most thorough and
dependable of all intestinal elimi-
nants, thus cleansing the intestinal
tract of the germ-laden mucus and
toxines. Second, Calotabs are diu
retic to the kidneys, promoting the
elimination of cold poisons from
the blood. Thus Calotabs serve
the double purpose of a purgative
and diuretic, both of which are
needed in the treatment of colds.
Calotabs are quite economical;
only twenty-five cents for the fam
ily package, ten cents for the trial
package. (Adv.)
