In many homes, the floors are cold, and in such homes, the mother who stands for so many hours, doing her housework, develops chilblains on her heels and the sides of her feet. To some" extent, this may be overcome Iby wearing heavier shoes and warm- er stockings, but more attention should be 'given to warming floors. Painting the parts with tincture of iodine will stop the itching at the onset. If an open sore develops, it is well. to remember the danger of infection that attends all open 'sores and secure skilled treatment. Chikblains are not dangerous to life, Abut they may take a great deal of the joy out of life. A poor state of health may be the underlying cause of chilblains, and so it follows that, as a practical mea- sure of prevention, the general health should receive attention through pro- per diet and such hygienic essentials as fresh air, rest, exercise, cleanli- ness and elimination. Under such circumstances, supposâ€" ing- it is the feet which are cold, the proper procedure is to remove shoes and stockings. First of all, the feet should 'be placed in cold water and then given a brisk rub with a rough towel. This treatment restores cir- culation gradually and averts trou- ble. At the point where the chilblain develops, there is, first of all, a tingling sensation, then itching. A blister, which has a purplish tinge, forms over the area. This blister is painful and when'it breaks, an open sore is left which is slow to heaL cape To avoid chilblains, the feet must be protected and kept warm by shoes and stockings which are neither so tight as to interfere with circulation, ’nor so thin as to allow for chilling of the feet. Tightly-fitting shoes, with thin soles, over thin stockings, invite trouble, as do stockings which are so heavy as to cause the feet to perspire. CHILBLAINS When winter comes, chilblains be- gin to afflict those who are not in good health, whose circulation is poor and whose clothing is possibly in- sufficient. By far the most common location for chilblains is the feet, but neither the hands nor the ears es- When the hands and feet are chill- ed, they should .be kept away from open fireâ€"place, stove or radiator. A sudden change from cold to excess- ive warmth causes a rush of blood to the parts which have been chilled, and this leads to irritation, followed by chillblains.

Starting through the door she enâ€" countered Bob, who was hurrying outâ€" doors again. “Hellé sweet," he said, smiling. “Gee, but you look trim and slim in that new spring outfit!” ,Sheryl got her hat and walked down to\ the offices of the newsâ€" paper where she inserted an ad in the Lost and Found column. The next evening, just before din- ner time Sher‘yl peered out of the window of her room and saw Bob, tall, broad-shouldered, walking in‘ the deserted little park. Sheryl grabbed her bracelet, hurried downstairs and across the street. She waited in a clump of trees until she 'heard‘ Bob’s footsteps coming along the .path. Then she dropped the braceles and hurried away so he wouldn’t see her. Nor did she see him again until hL was climbing the boarding house steps. Sheryl felt a bit guilty, as later she climbed those same steps. 1938. ways It’s no use, Sheryl,” Bob Hilton was saying moodily. “Oh, we can go and look at apartments like we have been.

Sheryl opened the door and nearly ran into young Millard Kemp who \was retrieving some papers he had dropped. “Sorry!” said Sheryl. “Don’t- be,” replied thin, sleek- haired Mr. Kemp. “I’d rather you’d run into me more than anyone I know.
