TO SETTLE DOWN’ 1B TO G0 STALE

The white-haired grandmother was trying to explain why she found the company of one of her contemporaries so unbearably dull.

“It's just.” she finally slimmed up. “that she's so settled."

The white-haired grandmother, though in her late sixties. isn't "settled." Shrkeeps up with what is going on in the world instead of living in the past or trying to live the lives of her grown chiidrez" and grandchildren.

She can pick up snd take off on n. moment's notice Ind frequently does. She isn't hog-tied to her home. If her husband asks how about going along with him on a gusiness trip. she locks the doors

She has friends of all ages in. stead of clinging to a little circle of friends. all her own age and all "settled."

All of which goes to show that a woman doesn't have to settle down to a dull existence at any age or stage in her life.

Lots of women let themselves become "settled" as soon as they get a house to manage.

Others keep up fairly well uni.‘ their children leave home and

PAIN IN THE NECK. SHOULDER AND ARM

when an attack of solstice-pain 1n lower beck. hln. back of thigh and lower leg-occurs the first thousht now 1s that it is caused! by is rupture or crushing of one of the fibrous discs or cushions be. tween two of the bones of the 10W“ part of the spinal column. As a matter of fact, most physic- ians still believe that infection _ tonsils. teeth. gall bladder - is the commonest cause. _, One test as to the caus of sla- tica is that ii’ the pain i5 worse M lllifht, when the patient is at rest. infection is the cause whereas if the Dain is worse when the patient is on his feet, injury or pregsure due to poor posture is the cause. As. however. injury can be follov..- ed by infection and infection seeks a. weak spot, injury and infection can both be present and upset the above rule.

1t is interesting to learn that while most cases of ruptured discs occur at the lower end of the spinal column-causing low back pain and sciatica. the same condi. tion, a ruptured disc. can occur 5c the upper end of the spinal col.

Instead of the pain being in the back and leg. the pain occurs in the neck. shoulder and arm.

In the “British Lancet," Dr's, g1- mer and Kramer describe eight C0883 in which there was pain and loss of movement of the neq; due to pressure on the nerves leaving the spinal cord to supply neck, shoulder and arm, Thus there was tenderness, weakness and loss of tissue in the muscles of the neck, upper back, shoulder and upper arm.

Ellen‘ ’s Diary

pynnllsnllhe-ss-‘swlle

The haying at Alderien commenc- ed in earnest today with the fs. miiiar show of activity peculiar to the season. There had been n spell of weeding in the turnip patch in the early part of the morning and then we caught sight of our farmers in n hay field at work there turning the windrows to catch every straying wind as well as the drying sun. Prom this Jeanie and I knew we were ex- pected to serve dinner in good time so that following it they might go at once to the hauling home. "Now let's have it. Ellen!" James order- ed making straight for the tablz. when he returned “we're into the haying now. you know-—and we can't make it after dark!" And Jamie laughed and hurried with his eating to catch rides to and from the field on the hay-wager. And presently the first creakmg load of it was drawn to the yard and to it's place at the end o! ‘a barn. We were all there to hail it's arrival. Jeanie who had been el» ected to drive “our own mare‘_ in the lift and I to catch idly the de- light of it all. to watch the fascina- tion of the great forkfuls swing off the load and ascend lightly be- fore disappearing with a lively swing into the barn. Rob's stint it is. to attend to the hay.fork and from within the building on occa sion we could hear the voices of the other farmers ring out hollcsly as they directed the landing of the bundles of hay_

O O O

It is always pleasant to see the unloading. and more so with grand- daughter and Jamie in attendance. "My horsel" she commented nod- ding towards the one her mother was guilding along the barnyard. "Your horse?" Jamie repeated ir. a superior manner "I suppose that you think everything in this svholc world is yours! That's my horse" he teased. She was serious for a moment then in a tone which left no doubt "No, Jamie. No!" she said and -noticing_his smile she broiie into s triumphant grin: "Ah. ha it is my horse!"

O O O mifrwssour-chore —and privilege, now that I consider it. to carry cooling drinks to the workers. for which in the prevailing heat oi the afternoon. there was much demand And if tonight James expressed some doubt as to the boy's keeping qualities though as he says "it may" several tidy loads have been tucked away in the old mow in the hay-barn —the same barn which holds happy nesting swa- lows beneath it's eaves and has held in the dark and clean-smell- ing mow. sitting hens with their stolen nests -alert white ladies and more matroniy grey ones with "pasels" of black chicks. Tahofs kit.cats too, in generations of them. James talks now to our younger farmer still about the yard at .1ls chorlng. "I reckon from the looks of things. we'd better set that end doorof the barn in place!" Light- ning fiashed vividly in the threat- ening sky and thunder rumbles distantly. "It's-certain" James adds picking up the cap he had only tossed aside "that we're going to get rain out of this." '
