DEAR DOROTHY DIX: What is the bcst method to pursue in order to make my spoiled, selfish, self-centered girl friend give me some consideration once in a while?

Q. Is it correct, when one has finished eating. to fold up the nap- kin into its original creases before placing it back on the table? A. No; the napkin should be placed back on the table as it was used. and never folded. However, if one is a. house guest and expects tn have several meals, one should not expect a fresh napkin each time, but. should fold it neatly each {me and lay it beside the plate. Q. Should the water glasses be filled before the guests are sum- moned to the table for a. lunch- eon?

A. Yes, the glasses are filled and the butter is placed on the plates.

Q. Is it all right to address the envelope of a letter to a man with- out using the title "Mn"? A. Never; “Mr.” must be pre- fixed.

HELPING THE ELDERLY T0 UNDERGO OPERATION SAFELY

1t is not long since a physieum in consultation with s surgeon often decided not. to allow an elderly pat- ient to undergo operation unless it. was B. matter of life or death. Be- cause there are riaw so many ei- derly men and women in the world and they are beginning to feel the effects of the aging process, phy- sicians and surgeons are studying closely the problem of surgical op- eration ln the elderly.

In "Geriatrics," (diseases of the elderly) Dr. J. Dewey Bisgai-d, Uni- versity of Nebraska College of Medi- cine. states that. there ls greater need for team work between the surgeon, the internist (specialist in internal diseases), anesthetist, and other specialist-s. and that every de- tall in surgical management must be cautiously and carefully observ- ed. These patients should be stud- ied not by their age in years but by their age physically as some are 03d at 50 and others are young st. 7 .

One important consideration is the nourishment of the body; if the patient is undernourished. his weight should be lncreased.,While it is aCn-iltted that lean men live longer than fat men. lt ls known that. many elderly men and women do not est as much as they really need to keep body strong, and tn provide enough fat and other cov- erlngs to protect the nerves and serve as a food supply in In em- ergency.

Dr. Bisgard points out that with the loss of fst there is a loss of sugu from the sugar or glycogen depots-skin. liver-and also loss of protein (muscle tissue) from the body. He suggests. therefore, that. in preparing a patient for surgical operation an all round diet. should be given and the proteins — meet. eggs, fish-should be increased. If not enough proteins can be eaten

He had been on a prowl that day along distant meadows. and ln the act of pulsing from one field to another, his hand came in touch with a live wlre. to the secret amusement of his host of the time.
