And what. of the sweat and dust and toll of the work? And the heat of the relentless nunme sun? That is all forgott . dissolved and washed away in the pleasant coolness which comes at the clos of day-after the sun has westered in a scene of matchlus splendor and the twilight la a gentle veil of dew-fall wraps the surrounding countryside even to the far hills.

Perhaps the story of Be: treading the path of indecision. of an enterprising farmer on a matier of business. The lure of the outing was too tantalizing to be denied; we came too, with him and the children. Keeping always in- land, without sight of sea or river, along rolling picturesque country we came to an elevation of The Island where one may look out for miles and miles over the surround- ing countryside. And there, not far from Church ,and school and the comer-store of the village we found the cozy farm- home. Red roses, in profusion were blooming not far from the door about which children were happy at play. she is the mother of seven. this young. blue-eyccl hi-own-haired attractive woman. "They're quite a care," we offered. Her fingers played with a wee lad's curls. "No," she said. "Of course they are a responsibiity, b " she smiled. numbering each one lov- ingly with her eyes. "they're good children. I wouldn't want to give one of them away." There was scent of. baking in the kitchen-and freshly scrubbed floor. Ancl out in the sun and loveliness of day, a line of white pieces moved lazily in the small breeze . . . We sampled a new- made cookie and begged the recipe: a half cup of shortening, and one of brown sugar; salt in a blggish pinch and flavoring to spice these: an egg than and two cups of flour to which has been added after the manner of cooks of the old years, two teaspoons of cream of tartar and one of soda. The dough is broken off than in bits small or larger, each flattened somewhat in the pan, marked intriguingly by I fork and baked to a golden brown. "I rackon,"' James said. "that mother of seven wouldn't get to the pictures very often. Nor I suspect on many other outingsi i guess." he commented with some insinuation. "she wouldn't. have the leisure of some."

E5 That Body Of Yours By James W. Barton. nu). ARMCHAIB TEEATDIENT OF CORONARY THBOMBOSIS For years the established treat- -ment of a heart stroke (coronary thrombosis) was three to six weeks in bed with , another couple of weeks "taking it easy" about the house. In the Journal of the Ameri- can Medical Association, Drs. sam- uel A. Levine and Bernard Lown. medical clinic of the Peter Bent T ” Hospital and department of medicine. Hm-vard Medical school, state. "It has been our view that recuinbcncy in bed affords less rest to the heart than the sed- entary (sitting down) position in a chair with the feet down. The lying-down position permits most return of the blood to the heart from the most distant parts of the body. while the sitting position per- mits gravity to mobilize fluid in the dependent parts of the body. The lying down position encour- ages the pooling of fluid in the chest region. This pooling of blood in the chest region or circuit may be dangerous. The abruptness of the onset of coronary thrombosis with its frequent grave results at- flicting, as it frequently does. the highly active and previously healthy person, when coupled with long-continued bed rests. saps mor- ale. provokes desperation, unleash- es anxiety and ushers in hope- lessness with respect to resump- tion of normal living." Aside from the loss of morale in lying in bed for weeks. there are physical bad effects such as con- stipation. gradual weakness, pneu- monia, kidney and bladder de- rangements.

Levine and Lawn. for the past year and a half. have used the armchair treatment instead of bed rest. Of the 81 patients with acute coronary thrombosis, 57 were ad- mitted to the medical service of the Peter Bent Brigham Hospital and 24 were treated at home or in other hospitals. The majority of patients were out of bed during the first two days. They were helped ' out of bed and placed in a. com- fortable movable chair. They re- mained in the chair until they felt tired, as these physicians wanted the patients out of bed as much as possible without discomfort to them. They began with an hour or two daily out of bed and by the end of the first week they spent the larger portion of the day in the chair. "The most encouraging aspect of this armchair treatment of coron- ary thrombosis was the continued sense of well-being and high mor- ale. when they were permitted to walk, there was no dizziness or weakness." the doctors tell us. There were no complications caused by the armchair treatment. While there were 8 patients who died during the armchair treat- ment, there was no evidence that the chair treatment was respon- sible for these deaths. "The prompt improvement shown by some of those desperately ill with congest- ive heart failure after being plac- ed in a. chair was particularly im- pressive." The results obtained by the arm- chair method means that other physicians will give this method a trial and we will obtain further in- formation thereon. Certainly a pat- ient sittlng up in a chair natur- ally has less anxiety about his ill- ness than lf confined to bed. Spread this over the baked crust. Bake about 20 minutes or until golden.
