The ferns will keep in good con- dition if you are to beiaway from home for a few days. by placing a bowl of water near the fern with one end of a. cloth in the water and the other end in the fern con- tainer. Enough water will be gradually drawn to the fern to keep it from drying out.

Angel Food Cake

Do not beat the egg whites too much for angel food cake. or it will be too dry. The whites should be beaten until they form a point when the egg beater is removed.

Keeping Paint

If the lid of the paint can has been thrown away. and there is a little unused paint left. pour some hot paraffin over the paint, and it

will not harden.

DEAR. Miss. Dix: Is rthereveomething wrong with me because rm not seriously interested in boys? I'm 11. a junior in high school. and have never been attracted to the boys in my clau. Most of my girl friends are boy-crazy and they think -1 should be. too. it's not that I'm not interested at all. but after IVate a boy two or there times. he bores me. Mother says I just haven't met the right boy, but sometimes I wonder!

E

ANSWElt:' Interest in the opposite sex comes to different people at.different "ages. and if you seem to be a little behind your girl friends in that respect. it's nothing to worry about. You will. one lday, meet the boy who can make your heart palp- tate. v In the meantime. enjoy your emotional frie- dom.

With your girl friends for companions. studies to keep up and school activities to provide recreation. your life is full enough. Since you do

You probably have high ideals by which you choose your friends and Just haven't yet met the boy to meet your standards. It's a fine idea to have good principles and to expect your friends to have them. too. Don't compromise on this point, either with girl or boy friends. You'll command much greater respect from your associates.

m PHYSICIANS CAN NOW CONTROL EPILEPSY

When I was a medical student, there was no special treatment for epilepsy; all that was done was to see the epileptic safely through the attack and prevent him hurt- ing himself. An epileptic was practically an cutout.

Doctors at Duke University. Durham. N.C., tell us that modern drugs are holding the line against this tragic disease. By the use of certain. drugs and special diets, the epileptic is now able to live a normal life. "When epilepsy is kept under control by the use of drugs," says Dr. Hans Lowenbach, "triers is nothing the epileptic cannot do."

Phenobarbital. dllantln. tridione, mebarai and penurone are among the drugs which reduce the num- ber of these attacks and help epi- lepticsilead useful lives. How do these drugs control epilepsy? Despite the fact that the cause of epilepsy is still not known, the use of the above drtws. increasing fat foods and decreasing starch foods prevent all attacks in some patients and lessen the number and severity of attacks in others. Because eplleptics occasionally

that they will hurt themselves and threaten the safety of fellow work- men. w 0 also are afraid of the epilepti . An epileptic attack robs the central nervous system of its energy. The right drug at the right time maintains the energy the patient needs to carry on. The drug also keeps the brain from overworking itself.

"Donlt shun the epileptic.” urges Dr. liowenbach. "Doctors estimate that as many as half oi epileptlrs are under 20. We must teach these youngsters. their families and friends. their epileptic: are handi- capped. not invalid. The epileptic is a thorough, conscientious per- don, capable of leading a product- ive and no life."

Dr. Lowcnbach states further that many epileptics become "shut- ins" unnecessarily. Because they cannot climb. drivp or swim, many build a wall f themselves. whereas. because they are usually good at figures and are depend- able. they can engage in such jobs as bookkeeping and clerking.

In addition to increasing fai foods and decreasing starch foods all liquids should be cut down in smallest amount. Excess amount of water and other liquids may
