A story concerns Herr Remarque
author of “All Quiet on the Western
Front,’* and a pretty American girl
whom he met In Berlin.
The American usked Remargin
why he had never visited the Unlte.1
States. His answer was that he
knew only a few sentences In Eng
Ush.
“What are the sentences?" In
quired the girl.
Remarque, speaking in somewhat
guttural English, said: “How do
you do? I love you. Forgive me.
Forget me. Ham and eggs, please."
“Sakes alive!" ejaculated the girl.
“Why. with that vocabulary you
could tour from Maine to California."

Six Babies in Three Days
World's Greatest Terror
Another Mild Bad Man
How to Avoid Thought
President Sacasa of Nicaragua
confirms officially the statement
Arthur llrlubunr
that a very poor
woman on the
“distant shore of
Lake Nicaragua
has given birth
to seven babies."
The mother,
Mrs. SInforosa
Martinez, had a
difficult time.
The births
stretched over
t h r e e day s—
May 3, 4 and
5. The babies’
names are, or
were. Jose Jesus,
Itamon del Car
men, .Maria del Carmen, Socorro
del Carmen. Marla de Jesus and
Juana Ramona.
The seventh name was not tele
graphed, for there was no seventh,
as It whs expected there would
be. Five of the aextuplets are al
ready dead. Only one, a girl, lives.
What would population of the
earth be If such births were the rule
and all lived?
At the opening of the Catholic
press exhibition In Vatican City,
Pope Plus, for the second time
within two days, cautioned the
world against communism, which
he culled “the great terror which
threatens all the world.”
For the comfort of those that live
In dread of Anal Communistic
world conquest, It may he said that
thus far nothing opposed to human
nature has ever succeeded.
Ity the arrest In California of
Thomas 11. Robinson, Jr., kidnaper
of Mrs. Stoll, Mr. Hoover and his
G-men brought Into the shadow of
the electric chair the last of the
group of dangerous criminals that
have recently been wandering about
the country.
Tills “bad man,” like others re
cently gathered In, shook with
fright when he found the gun point
ed at him, made no effort to fight.
When the guns are pointed the
wrong way, “bad men” often change
to good, meek and scared men.
Stamp collectors have held a cel

Collecting queer things, stamps

ing cross-word puzzles, playing soli
taire, rushing to the far corners of
the world to spend money—usually
not earned; going to Africa to kill
big game animals. Those are some
substitutes for thinking and work

Faultlessly Tailored for Spring
By CHERIE NICHOLAS
FASHION Is In a contra
" dlctory mood this sea
son, which makes the game
all the more fascinating. Either you
are more strictly tailored or you go
begulltngly feminine with all sorts
of furbelows.
Your wardrobe for spring and
summer Is made to play this dual
role In flint you may choose be
tween being that faultlessly ami un
compromisingly tailored the mascu
line members of the smart set will
see themselves outrivaled in the
matter of meticulous detail or your
costume feminizes to the extreme
via gay prints, guy flowers and a
lavlshment of adorably frivolous ac
cessories that are utterly devastat
ing In their coquetry of color and
flutter and chic and charm.
Spenking from the smart tailored
viewpoint every fashion-wise Amer
ican woman Is dashing out with Joy
In her heart to flt herself with a
feminine version of the lntest In
men's swanky topcoats or trim busi
ness suits. Always she has envied
the slim distinction of well-cut mas
culine nttlre, and from experience
with riding habits and active sports
costumes she knows that mannish
styles accent rather than detract
from femininity.
Itroad shouldered and slender
hipped, the two models pictured are
man-tailored In the best trndltlon
with a custom-built look that makes
them eminently correct. The Jacket
suit of men’s wear wool has ar
rived at a hlghspnt of perfection
which makes Instant appeal with
best-dressed women. Its lines are
In the latest fashion with graceful
ly sweeping lapels, single-button
Jacket closing and braid - hound
edges and pockets. One of the very
smart details In hlgh-style tailor
ing this season Is the preference
given braid-bound edges. The stuft
ning straight-cut skirt closes oh-so
nently with a concealed slide fas
tener at the side. The oxford shade
of the wool Is beautifully adapted
to the formality of the Jacket, and
the skirt may be changed for a pin
stripe matching flannel for the girl
who has always had a hankering
for a chance to pin a gardenia In
her buttonhole and look like the
handsomest usher at a fashionable
wedding.
The Chesterfield type topcoat
shown, of a fine herringbone me
dium weight woolen, Is an ideal
choice for wear over any tailored
costume. The traditional velvet col
lar, high lapels and side pockets
with flap tops are both chic and
mannish. The coat is fitted for a
slender-walsted efTect, w’hlch Is fur
ther accented by the double-breast
ed closing.
The varying length of this sea
son's coats makes it important to
suit your coat length to your ward
robe. This Chesterfield Is cleverly
designed in the new style which al
lows Just an inch or two of the skirt
to show at the hemline. As here
pictured an excellent ensemble idea
is carried out as It ties up acces
sories, skirt and lint ns accent to
the topcoat.
Because of Its fitted lines, this
model is easily adapted both to
sports and street wear over the
new sheer wool tailored frocks as
well as over spring suits. The
beauty of this season’s woolens is
that they are related in color so as
to be friendly and tuneful to versa
tile combinations that admit of In
terchangeable alliances and effects.

LONG NET CAPE
By CHFR1F. NICHOLAS
Multicolor carnations ou black
silk crepe Interpret the new fash
ion In prints that calls for dark
backgrounds with widely spaced
single (lowers. The shoulder straps
of cutout flowers forming a ruche
effect are also of style significance.
As to the long cape made of dotted
net It defines fashion at Its smart
est, for wherever possible design
ers are veiling both daytime and
evening prints with net or tulle.
The Jewels worn with this stunning
gown are superb.
Pari* Lingerie
In Paris, among sets ot lingerie
consisting of nightie, slip and pan
tie, they are showing a tn length
nightgown — one whir'. jns just

LESS UNIFORMITY
SEEN IN NEW HATS
Less uniformity is noticed In the
new lints than was previously the
case. Besides t he general tenden
cies already in vogue, there are
new interpretations of Bretons by
Agnes in grosgrain and rayon satin
ribbons with hand-work on the
crown. The crowns of her Abyssin
ian Negus hats are shaped some
thing like a tiled roof and her Chi
nese cups are extremely pointed.
Talbot shows little Flemish bon
nets that are very cute. Among the
Catherine de Medici coiffures and
Uelne Margot bonnets at Marle-Al
phonsine’s are models in crocheted
rayon straw with open work, others
in laize of slit cellulose tilm and
bright straw of this weave.
New Colors and Materials
for Women’s Spring Shoes
New colors, contours und mate
rials ure making the spring shoe
styles as exciting as the costumes
they complement. Mannish pumps,
strup sandals, ghillies and peasant
type shoes with heels of all heights
are only a few of the modes that
will he represented In fashion’s
march. Graceful variations of the
Cuban, continental and boulevard
heel, in both built-up and covered
models, will direct new attention t'
the buck view of shoes.
Polka Dots
Yon can’t down polka dots in tie
spring. Even so great a designer
as Mainbocher uses them in a new
dinner ensemble. The matertul is
navy crepe de chine dotted wltk
white, the same fabric in red and
white marking the underarm anu
making a wide waistband. A finger
tip mandarin Jacket accompanies
the dress.

T«lki About ®
How “Extra.” Add Weight
itQOME people dislike to be
^ fat because they regard
the extra weight as a physical
handicap, others consider a
slender figure more graceful,
and still others realize that ex
cessive body weight is a men
ace to health. But whatever the ob
jections to being fjw, correct body
weight is now widely recognized as
an essential to enduring health and
a long life.”
I am quoting from "Diet and Like
It” by Mabel E. Baldwin, Ph. D.
Doctor Baldwin states further, "If
one Is overweight and decides to
• Dr. Barton
reduce, the most
obvious need Is for
a diet that will
cause loss In
weight. But for the
welfare of the In
dividual it is also
necessary that the
diet be one that
will maintain the
body In a state of
excellent health and
vigor while the loss
in weight takes
place.” Of course
the thought In the above statement
is that if food is reduced weight must
necessarily be reduced, but if the food
is reduced too rapidly, or If cer
tain vital foodstuffs are reduced 111
health or worse may follow.
The body needs only simple foods
but yet there must be a great vari
ety of these foods—vitamins; min
erals—lime, Iron, phosphorus, mag
nesium, iodine; animal proteids—
eggs, fish, meat; vegetable proteins
—beans, peas; carbohydrates or
starch foods—sugar, bread; and
fats—butter, cream. And each of
these foods must be present In suit
able amounts.
Size of Meal No Guide
‘‘Nor does the size of a meal glvtf
the correct idea of how much ac
tual fuel or food value there is
being eaten, for a pound of shelled
almonds is equivalent to nearly thir
ty pounds of tomatoes and so nel
ther the weight nor the bulk or the
meal give any Idea of how much
fat It will produce."
“Food values are measured In
calories. High calorie foods are
those of which only a small amount
Is needed to supply a large num
ber of calories such as olive oil
and other fats, sugar and confec
tionery.”
Lettuce is a low calorie food, as
three medium-sized heads of let
tuce equal in value only one table
spoonful of olive oil. High calorie
foods such us fats, flour, and sugar,
contain little or no water whereas
most fruits and vegetables, low cal
orie foods, are three-fourths or
more water. "A lunch of a cup of
soup, lettuce, a tomato, a small slice
of whole-wheat bread, and a tanger
ine—a small orange, will weigh
about a pound and a quarter. An
other lunch consisting of a pork
chop, two fried sweet potatoes, a
slice of white bread, and a piece
of chocolate cake of ordinary size
will also weigh a pound and a quar
ter, but will furnish more than
three times as many calories.’’
Desiert* Add Pound*
High calorie foods are less bulky
than low calorie foods, which is
the reason that many people have
a greater tendency to eat too much
of the high-calorie foods than of
the low-carorie foods. Also most of
the foods that are eaten between
meals or after the food eaten at
meal times is already sufficient, are
high-calorie foods. "A man eats a
suilicient amount of food for his
energy requirements for the day by
the time he reaches the dessert
course at dinner, and then eats a
piece of cake. This ‘surplus’ or tin
needed amount of food will yield
200 to 300 calories and will Increase
the body weight by one ounce. Or »
woman obtains from her usual thre^
meals a day a sufficient amount of
energy to meet her needs and eats
during the afternoon a dish of Ice
cream, several nuts, or a few pieces
of candy. She will obtain from
them 200 to 300 calories, and she
will, likewise, Increase her weight
by one ounce.
"Suppose either of these people
indulges to this extent only once
every four days; by the end of a
year the increase in weight will still
have reached five or six pounds.’’
With the above simple statements
of fact by Doctor Baldwin It can
readily be seen how easy it Is to ac
quire many pounds of fat.

Indigestion in Children
Mothers are often at a loss to
understand why their youngster
sometimes loses his nppetite, may
have a headache, and may have
vomiting spells.
This condition Is sometimes called
acidosis. As these attacks occur
from time to time they are some
times called ‘‘cyclical” vomiting at
tacks, as they appear to come in cy
cles.
Dr. K. Talleruian in the British
Medical Journal thinks that these
attacks are much like or related in
some way to migraine—one-sided
headache—and he therefore recom
mends that the fat foods be cut
down In the diet.

BETTER MEALS ARE
NOW POSSIBLE IN
THE RURAL AREAS
Recent surveys reveal a new era
in the preparation of food in rural
areas that promise better health and
better meals for farm families every
I where.
Modern cooking methods have ac
companied modern equipment, giv
ing many homes beyond the gas
mnins and electric power lines the
opportunity to enjoy foods as scien
tifically prepared and as tasty as
anything afforded city dwellers.
Medical authorities and Home
Economists have advocated the broil
ing of more foods for many years.
Doctors declare the broiling process
eliminates the use of indigestible
grease required In frying and other
methods. And Home Economists ex
plain that the natural, delicious fla
vor of some foods is lost when they
are prepared by methods other than
broiling.
Foods particularly suited for broil
ing include: Tender, juicy steaks,
young poultry, fish and game birds
Bacon is another tempting dish when
broiled, and large quantities of de
licious toast can be prepared quickly
in a modern broiler.
Until recently, broiling was not a
practical means of preparing foods
where natural gas and electricity
were not available. The develop
ment of gasoline pressure stoves,
however, has made It possible for
everyone, whether living In a city or
the country, to enjoy this healthful !
form of cooking. These new stoves
have the same easy operation as the I
best city stoves, and give the Intense, !
quick heat necessary for broiling,
without dirt or smoke.
