EVEN CURTAINS

If the draperies have been clean- ed thls year and do not. seem to hang as even as when the uphel- aterer hung them, slip a curtain rod through the hem at the bot- tom and adjust the folds. Let t remain there for a few days and then remove. The draperies will hang in even folds.

PARENTAL roninuts

If the discipline of a parent is too repressive and if not enough love is shown to the child he may become afraid to show even IIiilil anger and develop a sullen or downtrodden manner. He may not speak for hours if he has been denied something or he may mope alone in a corner. All this ‘is highly undesirable, mental health experts say. It. will not encourage the child to grow up into a mental- ly healthy happy adult who will get along reasonably well wltli others.

ma looks with such a jaundiced eye on his suggestion that. "we: spend our vacation at home this year. just loaf around and take it easy."'Well, Mama has more than one good reason for disliking that idea.

First of all. it's always some- thing of a strain to have the man of the house around all day for more than two days running.

Second, no mat-lei" how comfort- able her home. a woman's idea of a vacation is to get away froni it. And why not, since that's her place of business? Suppose Mama suggested that Papa just. take his vacation loafing around his office?

Third, there's the old matter of eating. It comes up three times u day, and part of the joy of taking a vacation. so far as bfama 1s con- cerned, ls being able to have those three meals a day cooked by some» body else and the dishes washed by somebody else.

Fourth, Mama is enough of a realist to know that long befoie two weeks of a stay-at-home vaca- tion are up Papa will be wander- ing around like a lost soul.

And fiftli, of course. is the fact that if Mama takes her vacation at home she'll be clear out of things when the girls start publi- cizing their own valuations.

So for all those reasons. and many more, Mama can't get very enthusiastic when Papa toys with the idea of a stay-at-home \aca- tlon.

CARE WARDS OFF FOOT AILMENTS

Many of’ the minor foot ailments which plague a woman's middle years can be minimized if she will make a choice of more sensi- ble shoes.

Doctors suggest tl-tat the lady whose oft-heard complaint is "my feet are killing me" wear shoes of proper size with broad, low heels. She is advised to be particularly choosy about finding a last. that conforims to the shape of her foot. For solid support. she needs shoes which have both loathe: uppers and-leather soles. leather sole: should be flexible enough to l; conimodate foot muscles. Soles and tippers should be of a ty-pe of leather which prevents overheat- trig and over-peraplring of feet.

As important to foot comfort as well-fitting shoe: are ltocklngs of proper sin. To give tom room in which txrstretclt out, u otook- ing foot should be one-half inch longer than the longest toe of the

That Body Gf Yours

James W. Barton. M. l.

BHEUMATISDI CAUSED BY THE EMOTIONS

Moe and more we are learning how nervousness. emotional dis- turntances can affect the various organs and processes of the body.

Among the disturbances most recently discovered are skin ail- ments anti asthma. And the latest ailment research workers blame on the emotions is that old dsease, :heumatlfim. It is agreed among specialists in rheumatism that in- fectloii is the commonest cause, that starch foods. cold and damp- ness make up most of the balance.

That what is called psychogenic (caused by the mind) rheumatism ls now being found frequently. is reported frmi "Annals of Rheu- matic Disenses." London, by Dr. E. W. Bolantl. Dr. Boltind, after list- ing the disturbances in the ‘various ogans caused by the (motions. states that physicians nre not aware of the large number of rheumatic cases this caused. The number was very high among sol- dlers admitted to military hospi- tals whn had bone and joint injur- ies. In a series of 4-50 successive cases admitted with rheumatic complaints, the largest number (34 per cent) were caused by psycho- genic or emotional disturbances.

How can physicians be sure that the rheumatism is due to the emo- tions and not. to infection, diet or By searching for these usual or common causes and find- ing them absent. they feel justi- fied in calling the case psychogenic rheumatism, especially in the emo- tional or nervous type of patient.

Tine most. common symptoms of psychogenic rheumatism are pain. tensenrss, less motion in joints. tiredness - together with head- aches — indigestiomalghlng respir- atlons. sleeplessness. tremors, cold and moist hands and feet, anxiety and nervousness. Usually there is a history of nervousness and emo- tionalimn.

Dr. Boland states that it is often hard to find out whet type of disturbance is the spark that starts the symptoms, "but smolder- ing resentment seems to be tiite common. basic emotional dist/urb- mce in psychogenic rheumatism."

The point. then. is that while the commonest causes of rheuma- ttsm are infection. faulty diet. and cold and dampness. emotionui dia- turbence cause many cues of rheumatism.
