It means oversensitive. 1 am a little afraid we don't know yet Just why certain Indlvid'nais are oversensitive to conditions which tend to set the nose running and bring on sneez ing and snuffling up of the nasal passages: for one thing there seems to be some inherent faufl in the calcium metabolism of suMi individuals but there again I per petrate a meaningless medical term.

Address Dr. William Brady in cara of occurs out of season or perhaps the year around. .When a patient drops In and casually toils the doc tor he has hay fever, in the-middle of a cohl northern winter, there is something out of place about II, land if the doctor is at all up to date he will endeavor to diagnose what really ails the misguided one. j Among the real causes of adoplc coryza are hypersensitivity to some I particular brand or kind of sachet, I face powder, insect powder or per j haps some special dust to which j tin victim Is exposed seasonally or ! only when in a certain place, j where the dust is encountered, j Sad indeed was the case of the young benedict who acquired a perennial hay fever along with a wife; but he didn't divorce her; the doctor discovered the young man was hypersensitive to the orris root in the toilet powder used by the lady; she changed her brand and the young nmn quit 'sniffling. When your alleged "cold" comes on rather suddenly, and clears up suddenly when it goes whether in hours or days 1 beg you to with hold your testimony about the harm done by drafts, change of weather and the like, at least until you've been tested for allergic sensitivity. (Never mind the word allergic now. it means something like atopic). t'nfil recently only a few phy sicians were equipped to diagnose I perennial hay fever or atopic co ; rvza. Todav anv iooil nn-to.d;Li e ; doctor can apply the skin tests and determine vom- net oii.n Whnn I yuM know precisevly what it is that r)1;10J, yolll- trouble, it is usually teasible to procure relief. QCKKTIONS AMI AN'SWIilS KiHp Your Feet Dry Kindly reprint your formula for perspiring feet. (K. Y.) Answer. For ordinary cases I think the most satisfactory control is a periodic (say monthly) treat ment of all the shoes with for maldehyde. . Four into each sle an ounce or two of the solution given below, swish it around to juw lft "t tM wot the entire Insole and a bit of the lining, then drain it out Into the next shoe, and set the shoe thus treated to dry for at least 24 hours, preferably in the run, be fore you wear it again. The strength of the solution for the purpose Is as follows: Standard formaldehyde solution 2 ounces Water .....One-holf pint This same solution may be used in more troublesome cases to soak the feet of all stockings, letting them dry out for a day before you wear them. In still more troublesome eases, especially where there is mnrked odor, the same strength of solution may be used as an application to the skin of the soles nnd between the toes, once n week only and al ways let it dry well in the air before putting on shoes 01 stock ings. Keep the solution off your fingers use a brush or swnb or sponge on a stick to paint It on the soles. It ubber (;arnient0aiid the ICyes One frequently bears reference made UOthe Injurious effect upon the eyes occasioned by the wear ing of rubbers indoors or other wise when unnecessary. (T. K. W.) Answer. That superstition be longs with the one about "taking cold" from inclement weather. Koine of our self termed "scienti fic" doctors still cherish these Huperstltions, so we need not he astonished if untutored laymen do. Slim Jim und Skinnle Winnie Is a fallen stomach more preva lent in slim persons than in oth ers? Is it serious and what Is the remedy? (K. S. A.) jnswer. Prolfjibly- underweight persons suffer more from the fal len stomach obsession than wo fat folks do. The best preventive nnd cure for falling of tho stomach or other appurtenance is, keep sleek and fat. One of the train of trou bles coming to the girl or woman who reduces unwisely is sagging of one or another internal organ. Moral: Cut out tho fool dieting, before you lose your health. rnOFNIX, Ore., Jan. 3. (Spl ), AVhile crossing uhc street Wed nesday from the confectionery To the garage.

Sundown 5TQ THE MOON'S COUNTRY By Mary Graham Bonner--"a They could not speak now that Ihey were taking a trip over tho Moon's country. Hut they looked at the rough. plains, mountains. houlders, walls and I ramparts and I thought how I strange and Inter esting they were f and how - unlike anything they had j ever seen. They d i d not merely walk it they look this trip. Kvery step was I liko a high jump.

It was the most extraordinary trip they had ever .taken nnd such huge, jumping steps were very thrilling. They returned to the tent nnd the Moon said he had thought up a veise ns a sort of revenge for hav ing heen made the subject of so much verse.

The children did not think the verse was iwitieulnrly remarkable, but the Moon laughed hard at it himself, which made the children laugh, too. Then ihe Little Black Clock snid II was lime to leave. So they said good bye tn the Moon and traveled . buck lo t lie earth In the rocket plane. "You see." explained the Little Illai k ( lock ns he left them for tho evenly:.
