Not pink elephants, but a tenmonth doe walked right through a New York tavern window and sippers of the suds wondered if they were seeing things. As a result of her escapade, patients in a nearby hospital will have venison for dinner. o —-o Indianapolis has banned the wearing of masks by adults on Halloween. The police explain that it is a safety measure against bandits, who could operate in the city disguised like Halloween celebrants. Dillinger wasn't able to fool anybody even after going through a face lifting. o o The bakers of the country are cooperating fully in the save grain program. The bread makers hope to save three million bushels of wheat a month, through conservation, which includes reduction in the number of varieties and smaller loaves. Every housewife appreciates that a lot of bread is wasted because it dries out before being used. A smaller loaf would better serve the small family. o 0 The local Red Cross home service office rendered valuable and appreciated service to the Hindenlang family in contacting their son in Tokyo, Japan, when the parents were alarmed that he might have been a victim in the tidal wave storm. A field director was directed by the ational RC to locate the young soldier and an interview’ took place. The youth was well and in good spirits, which news brought happiness to the parents. o o There is an old saying, that if you want time to pass quickly, just sign a note or own property and the interest or tax due date will arrive before you know it. We’re In that period now. Local taxes on real estate and personal property are due and must be paid on or before November 3, if you wish to avoid penalty for delinquency. The county treasurer’s office has your tax receipt and will gladly receive your money. Avoid the last day rush. o— —o Phillip Murray won out over John L. Lewis and was re-elected president of the CIO. Lewis, now affiliated with the AFL, attempted to engineer Murray’s defeat, but
Reflex Headaches Caus ed By Disorders
By Herman N. Bundesen, M. D. IF you hit your thumb with a hammer, you expect your thumb to hurt and would be amazed if, instead, you suddenly got a severe pain in your head. Yet that is almost exactly what happens in certain other conditions, where a disturbance in one part of the body, through its effects on the nerves, causes pain somewhere else. There is. for instance, a whole group of such headaches. They are called reflex headaches, and may be due to disorders in nearly any organ. Disturbances in the nose are a frequent cause of pains in the front part of the head whjch may be either of a shooting or a boring character. Chronic infection of the air chambers or sinuses, bending of the cartilage which divides the two chambers of thie nose of inflammation and thickening of its lining membrane ma.v all be responsible for reflex headaches of this sort. They frequently begin during the morning and sometimes last all day. As a rule, there is some blocking of the nasal pas sages and an increase in the nasal secretions. Fortunately, these conditions are eEisily diagnosed. Once discovered, tijiey may be overcome by proper treatment and when they are, the headache vanishes. I Certain eye disorders, such as glaucoma in. which there is in- . creased pressure of the fluid in the i eyeball, and eyestrain, also may < produce reflex Thesv headaches a- r *> 4re the frofit pirt 1 of Uje. he*4. >re u?ua’y < seventy a&d cause dull pain.
the fiery labor leader who was one of the original organizers of the CIO received unanimous endorse- . ment. Murray has done a better job thin some of the labor leaders. No one could charge him with ■ being a Communist. His term may ■ be hctlc, since he finds most things at fault, including the administration, congress. Lewis and the rival union brotherhood. o o Advertising is the most effective . means of mass communication a- ; vailable to industry, business and [ the public. It plays an indispensable , part in selling and in educating the American people about goods and services, and about actions to be taken for the public good. By creating increased demand for better goods, it helps the producers of these goods to obtain the economies of mass production, with resultant lowered prices, improved quality and a constantly rising standard of living. Only with effective advertising working hand-in-hand with effective personal selling, merchandising and sales promotion —can there be mass dis- ■ tribution capable of keeping pace J with our greatly increased facilities for mass production. o o Bright Prospects: ‘ Reports from Democratic organi- i zations in cities and towns over the state give every indication that 1 Democrats will capture a majority < of the Nov. 4 elections. In addition to a definite Demo- , Cratic trend, several other factors are cited by party leaders as strong influences toward Democratic vic- , tories. Voters generally are dis- t satisfied with the present Republican state administration and with ( the actions of the Republican Con- ] gress and political observers say < there will be a pronounced protest q vote in the city elections. Not the least of the important factors bearing on the elections is the high cost of living which voters are blaming on Republicans in Congress and the party’s policy of decontrol which has upset the national economy. From the state level, voter criticism is even more bitter. Unprecedented taxation and public spending in the state has the attention of taxpayers. Numerous unpopular laws, enacted by the 1947 Republican-controlled Indiana General Assembly are being assailed. The three-cent cigarette tax, Republican failure to make good on a promise to "divorce” beer and politics, the shabby treatment of World War II veterans, the failure! of the administration to take any constructive action on the housing • situation and a long list of other 1 grievances must be borne by the • Republican party. I It all adds up to an indication I that this will be a Democratic year.
The attacks are, generally, continuous, that is, they last all day. Whenever there is headache of this type in the front part of the head, careful study of the eyes by an eye specialist is advisable. Ear diseases, such as inflammation of the middle part of the ear cause pains on the side of the head, which are shooting or boring in character. Headache is often associated with ringing in the ears, poor hearing, and sometimes attacks of dizziness. Tooth disorders may cause pain in one temple. When a headache of this type occurs. X-ray examination of the teeth should be carried out. Reflex headaches may be caused by indigestion or dyspepsia, as well as by constipation. The head pain in such cases is generally dull*and spreads over the entire head. Frequently, pain is less after a bowel movement. In women, disorders affecting the womb may produce headaches of a similar nature to those caused by digestive disorders. From these facts, it may be seen that to determine the cause for the headaches, st complete and careful examination is necessary. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS \ R.

Apply a strong lather of castile soap with a hard brush, wash off with clear water then wash off with alum water. On becoming dry, the colors will look as well as ever. When colors are faded beyond recovery, they may be touched up with a pencil dipped in water colors of suitable shade, mixed with gum water. Phonograph Records If you wash phonograph records with Soap and water and rinse well with clear water, then dry well, they will sound clearer.

x x CHAPTER TWENTY-THREE IT SHOOK Gail a little to have to admit that she had not suddenly developed a sturdy independence that lent dignity and joy to living simply, working hard, denying nerself. She had just fallen in love, that was all; and being with Greg, seeing him daily, sheltered beneath the same roof that sheltered him, had been the glamorous icing on the extremely prosaic gingerbread! She was a little abashed by the discovery, but her love for Greg was sure and unquestioning; being Greg's beloved, sharing hardships with him, loving him with all her heart, she would know happiness so perfect that nothing else would matter. She admitted that quite frankly, And then a chill of terror shook her. Suppose, after all, Greg wasn’t as deeply in love with her as she was with him? Suppose he only loved whatever beauty and charm she might possess. Suppose it was merely the glamor of her novelty for him. And suppose he should wake up to realize that, after all, Norah was the finer girl, the girl most worthy of his love? The fear of that was so violent that it vanquished all hope of sleep and Gail sat up in bed and drew ] up her knees, frightened and shaken. Remembering, holding with both hands to the lovely memories of Greg’s arms about her for the first time, of Greg’s first kiss, of his voice, low and shaken as he brushed her ear with his lips and held her so close she could scarcely breathe No. G.cg really loved her. Greg really wanted to marry her. Quite honestly, she told herself in unconscious humility as new to her as any of the night’s experiences, He loves me, but I'm fraid he doesn't want to marry me —and why should he? After all, I’m not much of a wife for him, but—oh, dear God. make him think I could be —and help me to live up to what he needs in a wife! She was comforted a little, but it was a long time before she could lull herself to sleep by going over and over again every minute there beneath the shadowy live oaks, telling each moment as though it had been some priceless pearl on a platinum chain. Gail awoke in the morning with a vague feeling that something very wonderful had happened in her dreams —and then memory swept back in a flood and she sprang out of bed as excited as a child waiting its first glimpse of a laden tree on Christmas morning. She went down to breakfast with a crazy feeling that her hearj ran ahead of her, clamoring for its first glimpse of Greg, while her feet held her back, fearful of what that first glimpse might reveal. Kate and Norah were in the kitchen, Kate finishing breakfast, Nd&h straining the foamy yellow U-it. brought ip Iron; the tarn. There was go si|n

And above all, the hat should be lifted slightly, not merely a touch of the brim. Q. When you answer the telephone and someone asks for you, what should be your reply? A.

I congratulated Greg. I believe Emily Post says I offer the bride-to-be my best wishes instead of congratulations!” Gail said impulsively, “Then you don’t mind. Norah?” Some of the rich yellow milk that Norah was straining into the big brown chum splashed as she jerked around to stare at Gail with every evidence of astonishment. “Mind?” she repeated. “For Pete's sake! When it’s something I've been hoping would happen from the very first moment you got here!” Despite Kate’s little instinctive gesture that would have stopped i her, Gail rushed impulsively on, i "But last night I though you were > —were —upset.” Norah turned her head a little • and her soft hair slid forward, I masking her expression as she ’ gave her attention to the last gallon of milk pouring through the ; strainer into the churn. “Last night I had the great f granddaddy of all headaches,” she > said curtly. “The sun was pretty ■ hot yesterday. I think that caused 1 it. Anyway, I saved my congratu--1 lations until this morning. Sorry t you misunderstood.” , Her curtness made Gail’s eyes 1 widen a little, but before she could t say anything more, Kate made a little admonitory gesture and Gail t swallowed whatever she might 1 have said. And a moment later r there was the sound of Charles e and Greg coming on the back !, porch from the morning chores, t "Here, Gail,” Kate said briskly. 1 “help me get breakfast on the table. It’s al! ready." * “Sure,” said Gail briefly. She 1 lifted the platter of bacon and j eggs and the inevitable bowl of 1 steaming grits and carried them y into the dining room, where the e table had already been laid. i As she put them down there f was a step behind her and arms - went about her, and Greg said huskily, “Morning, sweet!” 1 She turned, eagerly in the circle i of his arms and lifted her mouth s for his kiss.

ot a sleepless night? Don’t tell me you went straight to sleep just as though nothing had happened!” “I didn’t—l stayed awake for hours, just thinking how wonderful it was that you loved me,” she told him simply. “Darling sweet!” said Greg huskily, and kissed her again. “You are going to marry me, aren’t you, darling?" she begged after a moment. Greg raised his head and looked down at her. and there was adoring laughter in his eyes. "How could I escape? You’re a lady of persistence,” he began teasingly. But she crowded closer in his arms and begged, her voice shaken. “No, no darling, don’t tease me. It’s the most important moment in all my life." “Sweetheart. I adore you and I want to marry you more than anything else in the world,” he told her. his voice very low and not at all steady. “But you’ll be taking an awful chance, sweet. I’ll take care of you to the very best of my ability, but it won’t be like anything you've ever had. I can’t give you luxury or maybe even comfort.” "Nothing I’ve ever had will be like the happiness of being married to you. Greg,” she told him. Her voice was soft and vibrant, a pledge and a prayer and a little soft exultant cry of delight, all in I one. “All J ever want you to give I me is your love.” “You’ve got that, angel—you’ll always have it as long as I live,” he told her, his own pledge that curled warm and soft and sweet in her heart. Nothing would ever hurt her; nothing would ever frighten her so long as that promise lay deep in her heart. At the door from the kitchen into the dining room there was suddenly a great and deliberate clatter—perhaps a spoon banged on the bottom of a pan would make such a noise—and above it, they heard someone coughing loudly. When Norah pushed open the door and thrust in her laughing face, they were standing apart, flushed and bright eyed. "Always the subtle one, me,” announced Norah cheerfully, and over her shoulder she called, “Come on. Uncle Charles. Breakfast is ready.” It was a gay meal, and every, body talked at once. Gail saw that Norah seemed to be quite herself. There was no hint of despair, of unhappiness. Norah was obviously happy in the happiness of Greg and Gail; and that, Gail told herself, bewildered, only made her behavior last night the more remarkable. 1 ’ ’ Breakfast was .almost over and they were all lingering over second cups of coffee when Charles pushed his chair back a little, brought his pipe out of his pocket and began to fill it, looking from Gfcil to Greg and stoiling fondly at bcth df theSt | <To tie ContlhuM;
