That Body Of Yours

Dy lama W. Bsrkn. nus. t Nu-rnrrroiur. nismsas or THE MOUTH

One of the significant staternenls of Dr. Osler was that it is about the mouth that most ailments get their start. Although he had in mind the serious ailments-pnem monla. bronchopneumonla, heart and thatzmntlc diseases-there are some less serious ailments about the mouth that cause misery and ambarrassment. I have in mind the rnouth ailments due to eating foods ihat upset the stomach and intes- zlnes and show these upsetments in Hid about the mouth. As these ail- ments are caused by certain foods, .hey are called nutritional ailments.

In Reviews of Gastrocnterology (stomach and intestincsi. Dr. H. D. Peln states that the aciiteness of Zhese mouth ailments determines zhe speed with which they go away inder proper treatment. When the iilment is slow in appearing, the ridivldual has likely been eating Che foods causing it for a long time and it is, therefore, a "chronic" ailment.

Since the advent of the vitamins. it has been learned that lack of :ertain vitamins is responsible for certain definite mouth ailments, but Dr. Feln points out that lack of minerals and other food factors are responsible for some of the mouth ailments.

Nutritional diseases are classified according to the site or spot where they occur. Diseases of the gums. are acute (scruvyior chronic ging- ivitis. Scurvy is a result of three lo 12 months' deficiency of absorblc acid-vitamin C. Severe swelling of turns and loosening of teeth occurs early. Vitamin C in adequate amounts results in definite im- provement in two or three days and clearing in one or two weeks.

Hints' For Salad Preparation

You ca.n add attractiveness and nutrition to your summer meals if you serve a green salad as an ac- companiment to your dinners. Let- tuce, wedges of tomato. sliced on- ion, tossed together with Your fav- orite dressing are the basis for a. salad which only needs a little imagination when adding the sea- sonings to perfect it. Chopped chive, a rub of garlic on the salad bowl, celery salt. a few capers, be- sides the usual seasonings, are only a few of the ingredients which will add individuality to your sal-

wben making mayonnaise with oil at home, you find that the oil separates from the other ingredients, try using two egg yolks instead of one. It's it. sure fire so- lution to the problem.

Ailments of the tongue are usually

caused by a lack of vitamin B com-

plex and show changes in color and

structure. A scarlet tongue is seen

in pellagra and sprue iexcess fat

in stooisi. The tip and edges of the

tongue are first affected and the

redness is accompanied by sore-

ness and swelling. i'!ceration may

occur but dramatic improvement, occurs in pellagra in 24 hours after

vitamin B12 or folic acid has been

given. A beefy red tongue repres-

ents a lack of niacin or some other

B-complex vitamin. When sores oc-

cur in corners of mouth it is also

caused by lack oi vitamin B (ribo-

fiavin).

Daughter Obiecis: Thinks 50 Is Too Old To Wed

DEAR MISS DIX: I am e widmvor of 50. My wife passed away A .l'Pa!' aim. and since i have met a fine woman whom I desire to marry. lrlmvover. my married clriughfer. age 21. is strongly against this. She fools I am "too old" to wed and that I should live with her and her husband. I feel I have the right to live the rest of my life as I see fit, without any interference from my daughter. What is your advice? E. G. W. ANSWER: Of course, so many factors can enter into ihe question of a second marriage for n widower that they can't all be considered here. The mere fact that your young married daughter objects to your nuptials is not a sufficient reason for you to cancel them. After all, she mar- ried--nnrl apparently quite younl-!Ahas established her own home, nnd is nnt looking for advice from anyone. She should certainly extend to you the same privilege.

YOU'RE ENTITLED TO HOME

Fifty is far from senlllty, and the desire for a home of one's own is not confined to any set age. Everyone-young rind old-has ii. If you did ac- quiesce fo daughter's wishes and stayed with her. who's to giinrnniee that in time she wouldn't tire of having Pop around the house all the time? Take what happiness you can, Mr. lV., and keep your own home.

There is one thing you must he sure of! Don't let loneliness lend you into a marriage that holds any probability of trouble. Are you sure the lady of your choice is really a fine and worthy woman? If; in your own mind, you are certain on that score, go ahead and best of luck!

Muriel N luen

DEAR MISS DIX: Five years ago I married A boy I had known about eight years. We were both l'i'. Ten months later our son was born, then my husband left for overseas. He was gone two years. and in that time I never went out with anyone, but somehow I felt we had grown apart, so I wrote and asked for a divorce. Although my husband didn't want one at all. he agreed to let me have my way. In the two years since, I have grown up. Instead of loving my bus- band less, I love him more. and realize what A horrible mistake I made. Now I can't make him realize it was a mistake, and that I'd like to try again to make our marriage a success. I know we both love each other, and could establish a wonderful home with 0l.llE:bl;l)I'.

ANSWER: Both you and your husband are laboring under the handicap of a too-early marriage. With no conception whatever of the responsibilities of matrimony, and not enough worldly experience in set a standard for you. and you were simply two drlfiers with ab- solutely no idea of where to land your lll(ilTll'l'l0l'lliil ship or how to steer ii. Time brought the experience and at least some of ihe wis- dom. Now the problem is. how to patch the wreck that your head- lessness brought on. Naturally your husband is bewildered by your constantly changing moods, and doesn't know which one to trust.

If you can get. him to agree in go with you. your best solution would be an interview with a reputable marriage counselor. You can locale one in your city.

DEAR MISS DIX: I have been engaged since Christmas. but my mother won't let me out more than ihrcre nights a week. My boy

.,..,...........e liELLEll'S DIARY

By An Island Farmer's Wile

There was "that piece of acui- illng" to be done in the root-land. and Ja.me.s recalled also that he could have put in place "that stack-bottom" of rude clubs in read- lneu for tomorrow's haying. "And by rights" be said. "we should stay at home and help Rob with the milking.” Yet clupite every call of duty though not without taking counsel of our conscience, we at- tended ln a pair this evening a. sup- per sponsored, by the Church of our childhood.

Wins it not our beloved Miss Mlontgomery who in writing of the leisurely ways of Island farm- ioik said that not even saving the hay from the shore-field beneath threatening skies or the evedl. of a Church-supper in the offing could disturb the unruffled calm of their day. we are confident that James would not have been so willing an escort to that of this evening, if the hay on this form now lying in awarth was fit to be saved! However it so happened that the ebbing afternoon brought him to the door. And "How about that ex- curslon, Ellen?" he said with a. boyish smile . . Suppers are pleas- ant social affairs, mpeclally those. we fancy, which on such a de- llghtful summer evening as this bring vacationisfs and others now domiciled elsewhere back to the scenes of their youth . . . to look out upon once familiar vistas, to meet old friends-and new, to try again to recapture the anticipat- ion and excitement of once. The food served we find only an incid- ental to the enjoyment of the oc- casion.

"My daughters wonder what brings me back to The Island-and gatherings like this. every summer" a woman born and reared within sight of the Church-spire but liv- ing in the States in her later years said. "They can't understand why I should like to spend I holiday here, when there are so many at- tractions elsewhere. "She stopped then, looking apparently over the busy happy scence about. but see- ing we suspected a little of it at the moment; lost instead in scenes of her girlhood and the intriguing days of her now-lost young years. "But it's Home no matter any others I have had since. And these are my people. folks or descendants of those I have known all my life . . . kin, friends. Why shouldn't I

like to return?" she smiled hap- plly. Why indeed! What lodestone

draws better. is more certain than "The Hills of Home "wherever they may he? . . . "I guess. Ellen" nurse- sister to us commented as we par- took of the excellent fare provid- ed, "we hold the record this even- ing for kin in attendimce. I doubt if there are other five sisters pres- ent. And here we are just as we used to be." "But now . . -. "we be- gan "Whist, Ellen!" she smiled. "Age is nothing more than a state of mind.”

We laughed over an incident brought to our notice recently. "Are you kin to Ellen's family?" 3 clerk in a city store queeled sens- ing a connection in the name of this stalwart, blonde. man. "Worse than that" he offered with what may indeed have been a mirthless chuckle, "I'm married to one of them!" l

And so picking up again rested; threads of our weaving in the length that is our fabric of life. we wove this evening with James a bright new piece, though alas! the design now lacks many of the figures and faces of once.
