“Solving In-LQW Problem

' ma si a n ' n on ‘Wills lsygflalfaxperlgilces

"“ Considering that most women are intelligent human beings. and that they have been both daughters-in-law and mothers-in-law. isn't it strange that so few of them handle the in-law problem, on which bags their own happiness and that of their darling sons, with any de- gree of finesse. or even common or horse sense?

For they have the blueprint of how to solve the mystery in their own experience. They have only to remember how they felt when their husbands in-' troduced them to their mothers and told them they knew they were going to love each other. There-is no woman who will not recal. that when she was a bride she was as scared of her husband's mother as if that estimable Christian lady had been an ogre thlrsting for her blood. She knew that her husband's mother regarded her as a she-wolf who had some- how broken into her fold and stolen her pet lamb. and that she welcomed her into the family with a kiss so cold it gave her a chill from which she never recovered.

So, remembering all of these things. when Son announces that he is marrying the nicest girl in the world, Mother will ring out the joy bells whether she feels like it or not, and she will court his bride even more assiduously than her son did. because whether a mother keeps her son or loses him when he marries depends upon her standing with

his wife. EACH IN OWN HOME

The mother-in-law will not make the mistake of going to live with the young couple. because she will remember how monopolistic she was as a bride and how anxious she was to have her home and her husband to herself without a third party sitting around listening in on their billing and cooing and their spats. Mother-in-law will bite her tongue off before she gives her daughter-in-law advice because she knows from experience that there is no other human being so full of conceit as a bride.

Mother-ln-Jaw may see that her precious son is being poisoned by his wife's cooking and that half of his salary is going into the garb- age, can but she keeps her thoughts to herself, for well she knows that peace and harmony in the family is better than good cooking and more profitable than money in the bank.

BURNING FEET

Bathing exercise and adoption oi correct footwear are recommended for those _who suffer from burning feet in summer time. It is suggest- ed that whether one uses a tepid or an altematnig hot and cold foot bath_ the feet must be dried thon- oughly. Talcum on the soles and between the toes, and a little witch hazel. will help relieve the burn- ing, too. ‘

Deviled eggs make a very tasty entree if they are prepared with chopped ripe olives in the filling and topped with a hot melted cheese sauce. Whisk them into the

~oven for a short ‘n’ quick brown-

ing just before serving.

FACING LIFE Posture-"facing up" to life, ls important, say doctors. Holding the body erect. with chest thrown for ward ,not only make possible bet- ter breathing. with more oxygen

for purification of the blood. hut also provides constant mild exercise for the muscles of the trunk.

Venetian Blinds

For dusting the Venetian blinds. a cleaning stick may be fixed at. home. Take an old ruler ahd wrap it several time: with a soft cloth. securing it with a soft string. This will slide Ln between the slats eas- ily and prevent the dust from ao- cumulating. Change the cloth when soiled, keeping one cloth washed and ready to replace a second one.

Moths

To prevent moths, sprinkle a lit- tle turpentine or benzine, around the crevices of closets, drawers and boxes. Store garments in newspap- ers, as moths dislike the odor of printers‘ ink.

Laundering Blankets

After washing and drying woolen blankets, whip them with a carpet beater. It will make the wool light and soft again.

Ellen 's Diary

This was the hot day_ in spite o the breeze which appeared on the pond this morning. and then wan- dered along the neighbor‘ _ alone to help make Mr. O.'s hay. In league with the sun, it frisked a- long the windrows, and soon wag- on loada of the fragrant stuff were being drawn to the barn. Our men. and often Jeanie were "at the

spasm of the muscles. which

protecting an infected or damaged part. nerves of ‘the protecting mﬂsclos, there-ls naturally considerable pain in the region. It was to relieve this spasm. which helps to bring on de- formity, that caused Sister Kenney to use the hot water and heat ap- plications in her treatment of in» fantile paralysis.

As neostigmine (prostigmin) has the effect of relaxing spasm in the‘ intestines, many physicians now, are using this drug in other tensed or tightened (spasm) conditions. In “Acta Medlca Scandinavica," Stockholm, Dr. T. Wrammer re- ports his investigation of the re- laxlng effects of neostig-mine pr‘ muscles spas-m in 25 cases of rheu- matoid arthritis (the commonest type of rheumatism) and other nheumarlc conditions. i The neostigrnine was given by Ln- leciions under the skin in doses of ‘ 0.25 mg. once daily. In 21 of the 25 | patients there was a decrease in the muscular pain, less rigidity or spasm of the muscles, and less pain in movement of the affected Joints and muscles; also the joint could be moved a much greater distance. These effects, relief of pain in mus- cle, lessening of spasm, and less pain when joint and muscles were rnoved—appeared within l0 to 20 minutes after the injection was given and lasted up to l4 hours. It is believed that this "loosen- ing" effect of neostigmine is caus- ed by its quieting or depressing ef- fect on the root of the nerve slip- plying the muscles undergoing the spasm. It is for this reason-neosti- gmine depressing the nerve at it: root in the spinal cord-that neo- stigmine is being used in infantile paralysis,

It is for the rheumatic sufferer _in the home or vwhere nenstigtnino may not be available ‘hat the hot applications-hot water. steam, electricity-dare so effective. Apply- ing heat. for 10 to 15 minutes, mov- ing or massaging the part for 2 min- utes and then applying heat again for five minutes gives relief from pain spasms.

By Roberta Lee O vQA9ivQAW-Q-WiKQ

Q. Is it necessary that the guest of honor at a dinner be introduced to the other guests?

A. Yes; all guests must be intro- duced either by the hostess or an assisting guest. It would be dis- cou-rteous to leave the party with- out meeting the honored guest. Q. Is it all right for a man to place his arm across the back of a woman's chair or seat in any pub- lic place? A- N0. and unless he wishes to make himself conspicuous, he will not touch her in any way. Q- When food is served at din- ner, should it be taken ‘even if one does not like it?

A. Yes; refusing any dlsh l; m; flattering to your hostess’ choice of food or her cookery.
