By HERMAN N. BUND ES EN, M.D. FOR constipation, 'mineral oil Is generally considered safer than strong cathartics or purgatives, according to many] doctors. However, the taking of mineral oil without consulting the doctor is not without its daggers, i For example, if . mineral oil is taken too close to rpealtirnei it will . absorb the vitamin A that is required by the body and normally taken in the diet]. The oil may even cause a deficiency in this vitamin. If mineral oil has to be taken, it should be ta&en, at a time when it doesn’t mix with the food, preferably at nigbrt. J Used with Caution Mineral oil should also be, taken more or less cautiously by older people and should not t»e given to infants and young children, or put near them. : £ v' h. One of the earliest signs of a ■r- vitamin A deficiency >is faulty vision in dim light. This Vitamin ■ r' la necessary for producing a substance in the cells of the retina of the eye that adapts the viaion to dim light. ‘ \ J People with vitamin A deficiency are bothered by bright M lights and have great difficulty in adjusting to dim' light. Usually they improve readily whem given adequate vitamin A. . L Damage to Cornea As a vitamin A deficiency progresses, the lining membrane of j the eye may become dry and »

A superintendent of a large factory can ! sit at his desk, turn on his television set and watch the operations in a t part of the plant. Mothers of small children might use the, television, camera to keep an eye on their might also be used in schools, hospitals aad large department stored. Television may ’prove to L, be a great deal more than a of entertainment. It is fast beconjiig an important part of every home. .I ■ ! -4—o 6 J Fornjer Hing Carbl of topsyturvy Romania didn’t live long as < an exiled his death at 59 occurring in Portugal.

His ydung 4on Michael was made king, \ but was pushed off the ancient throne by the Communists fol-, lowing World War 11.

This part may become hardened add show Some permanent changes. j Many older individuals have faulty breathing, land the mineral oil may be] inhaled instead of swallowed, This pan cause a disease known as fat pneumonia, or lipoid' pneumonia, which is very dangerous. * / Similar Difficulty Infants may accidentally get mineral oil In their lungs, and it can cause similar difficulty if it is not given to them with great care. Constipation is best treated by diet, plenty of fluids and regular habit formation. When temporary help is needed, the doctor may decide on mineral oil as a good substance to use, but his instructions should be followed to the letter. i QUESTION AND ANSWER N.

If a girl is to be married to a man who has been married previously, ,-is it proper fcr her to have a big wedding, wear a white and veil? ’ , A. Certainly. The fact, that her bridegroom has been married before does not altet the fact that this is the girl's first wedding. If. however, she has been married previously,, she should not have a big wedding nor wear wi ite. Q. When you are a g lest at a small dinner party, and a dish is served that you particularly dislike. what should you say? A. Better say nothing at all. Instead, accept a small portion and at least pretend to eat\it. Q. Is it proper to leave a tip in a tea room when one is waited on by the owner herself? A. No; this is not necessary in this instance; ,

1\ V f ,w v . J, CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE \ SATURDAY was a busy day, since the stare was opening on Monday. Carol felt too tired to join the others for supper. She changed mto a loose cotton housecoat, thrust her tired feet into scuffs, . and was getting herself something to eat when the doorbell rang. She ’ smoothed her hair down with her hands quickly. “Derek!” she exclaimed, when she opened the door. He smiled apologetically? “I’m sorry th have arrived so late, but my plane just got in. Peter Quin- - ell told me where to find you. Is » everything okay?” “Fine, * she said, smiling. “Come along in.” \ ! ’ The French windows were open onto the balcony, the sea breeze blew in gently, the room was softly lighted. •This is quite a place,” he said, looking' around him. She noddeg. “1 like it. 1 was just cooking supper. Won’t you join me?” “Whll, 1 did eat on the plane, but that was some time ago. I was going- to ask you to come out and nave supper with me, but this Would be cozier!” She laid the bridge table, scrambled eggs and grilled frankfurters, made a pot of coffee, and while she worked in the kitchen? ette de leaned m the doorway, talking about the store, what she thought of the new season’s-stock, how she liked her fellow employes, her’impression of Palm Beach. He \ didn’t mention Thelma. “Ycu’re a good little cook. You’d make some guy a wonderful wife,” he said presently. She laughed at him. “Just because 1 can cook?” “No. not just because you dan cook.’ He; caught? her in his arms and Held her clobcly, kissing her lips. She let him kiss her and wks aware again of that sense of phy-' sicai attraction she’d felt before when sl\e. was near him. He was big, nandspme, and even when he kissed her — more so when he kissed her—she knew he was nice. His kisses helped that ache of loneliness and frustration that was nagging at her, an ache she couldn’t explain, which was nonsense, anyway. But presently she slipped out of his arms. \ “The frankfurters are scorching. I don’t think the most romantic male enjoys burned frankfurters,” , aha said. | _ , • : ■ ■

He cleared his throat and went on nervously. “The next day when I called at the hotel to take her to lunch at the Stork Club she sent down a message for me to come up to the suite. 1 went up and she threw arms around my neck.” He blushed as he said it. “She seemed to think,” he cleared his throat again. ’Td asked her to marry me the night before." “And you hadn't.
