THROUGH A Vvkmans Eyes By JEAN NEWTON “IT DOESN’T MATTER” »«IT DOESN'T matter!” suid a 1 very charming woman in a very trying situation wldcli involved a tremendous disappointment to her. The people responsible for her disappointment were waiting in em barrassment to see how site would take it. The atmosphere was sur charged with uneasiness and gloom. But, like a magic wand were those words, “It doesn’t matter." They raised the pall of gloom, everybody breathed easier, a great deal of un pleasantness that might have been was avoided. The point is that, as this woman said, “It doesn’t matter,” it was more than a gesture. The others were convinced that It didn’t mat ter, and were so much happier about something which at that point couldn't he helped. And perhaps her saying so convinced the woman herself that it did not matter, for she seemed far too contented and cheerful for a disappointed person. What a gift that, being able to say convincingly. “It doesn’t mat ter,” even being able to believe when remove any doughy center and All with the following: Cut one half a package of dates and one cupful of marshmallows with the scissors.

Ethiopians have thus surprised Italians on a small scale. Now the Italians have shown that the thing cun be done from the air by killing 2.000 Ethiopian warriors, of w horn 20,000 were massed in the Mei Mezold valley, south of Arthur Bri.hnnr Makale. Ethio pians withstood, with fine courage, the attack with macl.'ne guns, in cendiary and explosive bombs. England really has free speech. On your soap box In Hyde Park you may say what you please. If you do not advocate crime. But England does not like free speech from another country, through the ether. The British Broadcasting company will not let Marconi talk from Rome to English men over the radio. He might con vince them that It is preposterous to try to starve out Italy for doing in Ethiopia what England has done in many places. The ruling seems hard on Marconi, considering that he invented radio. Without him there would he no “British Broad casting company.” Those that make betting a busi ness are often sound in their polit ical Judgments. They are at least cold, calculating; sentiment does not cloud their vision. On the Republican Presidential nomination the betting now stands; Senator William E. Borah, 8 to 1. Governor Landon of Kansas, 10 to 1. Senator Vandenberg of Michigan, 15 to 1. Col. Frank Knox of Illi nois, 15'to 1. Governor Hoffman of New Jersey, Ogden L. Mills, Sena tor David A. Reed, all 20 to 1. Professional bettors agree that Governor Landon is gaining, and will probably lead the procession at fi to 1 in a few days. Band wagon climbers are more and more polite to Governor Landon. The •‘sanctions” wall thrown by England and France around Italy, smaller nations co-operating, to “suffocate and starve Italy,” as Mussolini puts it, is now complete. Two million young organized Ital ians protest against the effort to punish Italy for doing to Ethiopia what England and France have done to other, more nearly civilized countries. II. G. Wells, aged sixty-nine, younger and more brilliant than when he wrote "Doctor Moreau’s Island” and “The War of the Worlds,” now in America on his way to see Hollywood, says, “The film is a finer art than the novel, stage or the opera.” Britain’s ambassador is confer ring with our State department con cerning Japan's plan to seize Chi nese provinces, containing 95,000. 000 Chinese, 35,000,000 more than the total population of Japan. If the Japanese could control, arm and use 100,000,000 Chinese in the air and on the ground, that would be Interesting. But it would not be our business, and it is to be hoped that the British will not persuade our state department that this country ought to attend to it.

We say this because, before the discovery of Bayer Aspirin, most so-called “pain” remedies were ad vised against by physicians as being bad for the stomach; or, often, for the heart. And the discovery of Bayer Aspirin largely changed medical practice. Countless thousands of people who have taken Bayer Aspirin year in and out without ill effect, nave proved that the medical findings about its safety were correct. Remember this: Genuine Bayer Aspirin is rated among the fastest methods yet discovered for the relief of headaches and all common pains ... and safe for the average person to take regularly. You can get real Bayer Aspirin at any drug store — simply by never asking for it by the name “aspirin” alone, but always saying BAYER ASPIRIN when you buy. Bayer Aspirin HELLO ZAT you BO?
