Girl Wonders if Man's Odd Trails Will Get Qn Her Nerves ln Time

DEAR MISS DIX: A man ia in love with ma who thinks me many things which I um not—beautiful, clever, wonderful and a0 forth-and he la the kindest and most wonderful miin I ever saw. Also, he has a quick mind. good manners, a pleasing pcrsonalitv, a good job and he is \'cry generous. though he hasn't. much money. And also we llkE to do the same things. But. here, is the rub. He wears wool socks summer and winter, sets his hat at slight angle.

tilted walk produce a hemorrhage, or will I continue to smile and nod and say to myself: “Isn't he cute?" MARY D.

ANSWER: Well, Mary, you remember the hia- toric answer that Punch made long ago to the man \'.i‘i(l ll$\E‘(l whether he should marry or not, To which Mr. Punch replied; "Whichever you do you will regrct it."

ALWAYS SOME REGRET

There are moments in every marriage, no matter how happy’ it ls when every husband and wife has at least a passing momcnt of re- gret and longing for their lost freedom. And whatever type of hus- rianri or wife they selected there are timcs and reasons when they wish they had picked out the other.

In your case I should say that your man runs all to the good. Ind lllili hc has so much to offer you in the way of devotion rind rongeiii;iliiy' and pleasant personality that you could well afford to avcrlook his little peculiarities. After all, woolen socks are not a real vice, and maybe they are only a minor weakness of which you tan cure him, and many u tactful wife has straightened out worse lnglcs in her husband's character than the slant of a lint.

So my advice to you is to marry him and take a chance on his clothes, but, don't try to reform him too stiddenly. and have a respect for his individual liberty. He may object to your nylon stockings as strenuously as you object to his woolen ones and think it silly the way you cock your hat over one eye one season and on the nape of your neck the next.

My earnest opinion la that when people get, married they should take each other "as is" and make the liest of it. The real lest oi love is liking another person's ways just because they are his or licrs.

DEAR. MISS DlX: My wife had an argument with our daughter the other day about marriage and among other things the girl told her was this—that it was her life and she had a right to live it as she pleased, and what was more that she did not ask to be brought

into the world. What would you have answered her’? PERPLEXED FATHER

ANSWER: I should have told my daughter that, just because l had thrust the gift of life upon her was the reason why I fclt_ morally bound to do everything within my power to help her make. it worth while. ‘ Than I think I should call the girl's bluff and ask her if shc~ rcprettcd being born; if she wanted to die and pass out of life; if she wanted to he done with this interesting old world and all it has of; pleasure and amusements? Children are always reproaching their, parents with having committed the crime against them of giving them: life, but I have never seen one yet who wasn't having a suificlentlvl good time to want to keep on with it. None of them really wish

"hey had never been born. Oi’ course, it is the most arrant nonsense for youngsters to d», "law, as they are. in the habit: of doing, that their lives are their ownh l l

and that they have a right to lead them as they please. Nobody lives "o himself alone. All our lives interlock and everyone about us has :0 pay the penalty for what we do.

Especially are boys and girls fond of asserting their right to marry when they please and whom they please because, as the)’ b05151" fully put. it, they have to endure the consequences of their marriage. But lh reality it is father and mother who have to pay for their‘ willful children's unwise marriages.

DEAR DOROTHY DIX: I am engaged to a man who la oftenl out of town on business. I have a man friend who is married to a‘ semi-invalid wife. He and I go out together a great deal because we; both enjoy golf and the Saturday night dances at; the club. Hist wife and my fiance think nothing of this friendship. but people are beginning to gossip about us. Shall I give up this true friend or pay no attention to ‘idle chatter? M. - ~

ANSWER: I am afraid you will have to glva up going with the married man, no matter how platonic your relations with him are. This is n censorious and suspicious world and it invariably believes

has a peculiar walk, reads little and has no par- ticular talcnt, What I want to know ls: After mar- riage will the socks make me scream? \\'ill a tip- '

the worst of a girl who accepts attention from a married man.

"Lydiaks coming back," with some bravado.

"I don't believe it!" she retorted.

Groping for help . for himself. for her, he went. back to the things Judge Kircher had said. "The truth is, Lydia. wasn't very well treated. If she wants to come home, we'll be good to her, won't we? hfattcr of fact, she may have be- come a very fascinating women."

"If she's a. fascinating woman. why should she come here? She must have her own friends - after all these years. And just as we had lived it. down. And the children! - ls it going t.o follow them lll their lives?”

"I know." he said aoothingly. "I know how you feel." As she did| not speak: "But I don't. think it's as bad as all that." After an im- patient exclamation from Ivy: "I'm sorry she's coming." As still ahe did not speak: "You heard me, didn't you. Ivy? I'm sorry."

"Sorry isn't. enough," she said,

"Warren." Ivy spoke as to one whose mind is not working well, "save what?"

"Save our past. perhaps.”

Unfortunately Ivy laughed,

"All right - laugh." he said sharply. “Mother - you may laugh about; Mother -"

"I'm Ml llU-lhlng about your mother. I never laughed about your mother-l"

Rural youngsters like Jamie and others of our visiting children are now into t-he Christmas Con- cert period of their schoci year, a season of charm which with its pieces and parts and practices, rivals even. the closing in dc- light. And everywhere, even in most familiar stirrounclin-gs, we are met with the excitement and mystery of it all. Granddaughter on one of her frequent calls to- day mentioned with a knowing expression that "Santa Claus \\'il be coming to this house, bringing something to you and to gran‘- daddy, too. I know but mommy said not to . " and the rc- mainder of the soeech was los‘. in a wide smile.

ENG 0F HEART

When a normal Individual in good health finds his heart rate has suddenly increased to a very rapid rate, from '10 to 140. for example, he is naturally alarmed because he luiows that. if his heart beats twice as fast as usual it. will tire or wear down the heart muscle. Fortunately in the majority of cases this sudden increase in heart rate just as sud- denly alows down to normail again with apparently m ill effects.

There are caes o! this rapid heartbeat‘ (tachycardia), however, in which the rapid rate continues hours, even days, and must. be re- duced to the normal rate to prevent extreme heart; fatigue. Fortunately ctnchona and its products, quinine and quinidine, are again available and both these drugs. taken in the usual dosage. “steady" the heart. and where ‘heartbeat is both rapid and irregular, these drugs (of which quinidine ls the more effective) re- store the heartbeat and heart rate to non-rial.

During World War Il‘. “when mal- aria. was so prevalent, there was a scarcity of quinine and qulrildtne for civilians. and other drugs, while not. as effective, were used in tachy-

ia.

That another drug commonly used for "stuffy nose," neosyneplirine, is proving helpful in tachycardia, ls reported ln “The American Heart M. .1’. Goodman and J. Gould. Some Journal" by Drs. W. B. Youmans. months ago these physicians rc-

ported s, few cases in which the heart rhythm, which was rapid and irregular. was brought back to nor- mal. They now report their findings in the use of neosynephrlxie in the treatment of 19 attacks of tachy- cardla. The drug restored normal rhythm in. 1'1 attacks in seven cases. It failed in t/wo cases where the at- tacks occurred after a major oper- ation. Neosynephrine restored the normal heart rhythm within 35 t/o 70 seconds after rapid injection into a vein.

Neosynephrine raises the blood pressure by constricting or reducing the size of the blood vessels but this temporary rise in blood pres- sure steadies and restores the rhythm to normal.

Whiiie quinine and quinidlne can be taken by mouth, it is gratifying to know that neosynephrine can give such excellent results when in-
