To Slip Geranlums

when it is desired to slip gerani- ums. cut a branch three to six inches long. Then carefully remove the lower leaves and place the branch in water to cover it half- way up. Do not change the water, but. add just enough each day to keep it at the same level. Roofs will soon appear, and the slips may then be planted in earth.

Umbrellas

To reset the loosened handle of an umbrella. fill the hole in the handle with powdered resin. heat the rod and then press firmly into the hole.

Boiled Eggs

see that the water is boiling be- fore placing the eggs in the pan and it will prevent the egg yolks from darkening.

THE WAY OF PIPTIO

-A...

one of the first lauous taught a. medical student. in studying the cause of a disease. is to "look for the commonest cause first."

A growing boy or girl with pain- ful joints is likely to have infection from teeth. tonsils, gums; an indi- vidual with an enlarged gland is likely to have an injury-cut. sore- nearby, a patient with ulcer of the stomach or first put of the small intestine (duodenum) is likely to be nervous. lilghstrung and of slender build. Ulcer of stomach and intestine is called peptic ulcer.

in the Journal of the American s Charles

Medical Association, Dr. T. Stone. of Galveston. Texas. states that patients with peptic ulcer have. in the majority of instances. a "classic habitus" (build). They are typically long bodied. underweight.

asthenic (not strong) persons in whom length is the outstanding characteristic. A long face, long

teeth, narrow chest.

Just why this build causes or af- fects ulcer is not clear. but one rea- son may be that the narrowriess does not allow the stomach to

DEAR MISS DIX: Do you think it's wrong to spoil a husband: I love doing things to please Michael, though I know he could Very well do them himself. I think more marriages would succeed if lllveg were more ooncerned with pleasing their men. than demanding atten. tion for themselves. BETPSY ANSWER: You certainly have a point, Betsy. Of course, the term "spelling" is subject to var-inns interpretations; to give into a man on every count, just to keep peace, or to try to please him when a mean disposition will never be assuaged, 15 mm. culous, But your attitude of giving care and attention to an appreciative mate, whose love for you increase,- with your coddling, is above reproach.

That the emotions can cause ulcer even -"in those of wide build was stated in a previous article.

"That psychic (emotional) fac- tors play a prominent role in cans- ing ulcer is doubted by no one. The anxious. ambitious. partially frustrated. resentful. overactive pat- ient whose daily life is beset with conflicts, always with a goal he can hardly reach. is almost as much a

as the pain in the stomach oc- curring two to three hours after meals."

The ulcer picture is so constant that a physician may be tempted at times to call the condition ulcer even before the X-ray films or other tests are made. However, Dr. Stone points out that there is really no pattern that applies to all cases of ulcer.

"One does not have to look far, to find ccnilrmatory evidence of the effects of nervous tension in patients with ulcer. During the air raids in London, the number of patients with perforated ulcers ad- mitted to London Hospitals trip- led. Statistics from the hospital of the Krupp works in Germany showed a sharp increase in ulcer after the beginning of World War II."

in the United Stalw and other countries. with the world so upset. millions have chronic peptic ulcer.

What about treatment of peptic ulcer?

Now. we were born with our own make.-up as to nerves, body build. emotions with their tensions. We can't really change this make-up but there are a few things we can "try" to do.
