It would be nice to accept that belief. But it's the long road we tread. we'll have our lean years - those when no hay will be left to rot on the fields .. .mark my words!"

Barton, MD. SOME CAUSES OF EXTREME SLEEPINESS Most physicians, when they find a patient whose chief symptom is a desire to sleep most of his time, try to find some infection (teeth, tonsils, gums. gall bladder. large intestine). Dr. M. N. Pal (Belmont Hospital. Sutton) reports in the British Medical Journal a survey of patients in psychiatric hospitals with a wide variety of sleep dis- turbances. He makes a report based on a study of 67 male patients who complained of diurnal somnolence tdrowsiness during which a pat- ient is partially aware of what is happening around him) or hyper- somnia (a condition in which daily more hours are spent in sleep than in wakefulness). These personality studies and psychiatric investigations revealed that most of these patients had immature and inadequate person- alities and had previously reacted to stress by devclopins: mental and emotional symptoms. In each case they were not interested in their occupation. lacked suitable occup- ation, or were actually bored by it. Excessive sleep and abnormal appetite, when found in the same patient. were due to different fac- tors or conditions and both symp- toms were manifestations of neu- rosis. As an excessive desire for sleep may be due to pressure on the brain or to some gland disturb- ance. these conditions were in- vestigated but neither condition was found in cases thoroughly ex- amlned. Dr. Pal states that these sleep disturbances may be a hysteria. l-ie points out that this extreme sleepiness and also un- usual hunger are not due to dis- turbances of the front part of the brain as could be expected, be- cause extreme sleepiness and hun- per upsually produce other well- known symptoms such as euphoria (feeling of bodily comfort). loss of initiative (desire to work or start things) and changes in person- ality. As stated above, most cases of extreme sleepiness, both day and night. are usually caused by in- fection which gradually increases in amount until the individual spends most of his time asleep. This means that infection as the cause of extreme sleepiness should be the first thought and a thor- ough search made for it. However. the fact that so many cases found in a mental hospital were caused by hysteria should be remember- ed as both infection and hysteria can be treated successfully.

"Great Scott!" exclaimed the lad in astonishment. "Has it taken you this long to find that out." ”Why. I knew the minute 1 saw you!" Nice Thought The husband arrived home one evening and gave his wife an in- surance policy. "I've insured my life for ten thousand dollars." he said, "so that if anything happens to me. you will be provided for." "How thoughtful of you." beam- ed his wife.

We are new on the block and every other time this has occurred I have shrugged it off saying to myself, "Maybe it will be different next week". but it never is. There are a couple of dogs who are a bother- some pair with their barking. One in particular welcomes nearly every delivery man. postman. pa- per boy and garbage man regardless of the hour of day or night. The garbage man comes at 5 o'clock in the morning. and as soon as he reaches one end of the block. the dog begins to bark and keeps if up for about half an hour. until the truck is off the street-which is a long one. I don't like to be a complainer, but I think something should be done in this situation. I don't know the woman who owns th I know it won't make for neighborly relations if I introduce myself and then begin complaining about her pet. What do you suggest?- ELSIE ANSWER: You have a tough problem on your hands. and one way it will not be solved is to complain to the owner of the dog. All that will accomplish will be to mark you as "that horrid woman who doesn't like dogs," and in most neighborhoods that is inviting social ostracism. No one. least of all I. will deny the charm of pct: as an adjunct to a household, or the joy of bringing up dogs and children together. No tribute is needed here to the devotion and companion- ship of pets. especially dogs. but these should not be had at the ex- pense of our neighbors' peace of mind. ANIMALS MUST CONFORM Fortunately. most pet owners realize their responsibilities in this regard and have their dogs or cats trained. This is especially neces- sary in a section where house: are built close together. as is the case in our surburban areas. Of course, if a dog has the run of a large estate he is no problem to anyone. and if he is confined to an apart- ment house. the landlord sees to it that the animal conforms to the amenities of city dwelling. So the matter becomes a problem only in small home areas-and consequently involves the greater part of our population. The pet owner's responsibility in these neighborhoods involves keeping his animal quiet at unseemly hours. seeing that he does not dig up lawns and gardens or spoil plants and shrubs. When a dog violates these laws of good carune upbringing. he becomes at neighbor- hood nuisance. The owner should be made to see his laxity in this respect. and if that doesn't help matters. recourse to local authorities is the last resort. Most urban communities have laws to protect you against unruly pets. and these should be invoked if necessary. . Have any of the other neighbors on your street complained to this pet owner about her noisy canine? If you got together on the project and made a joint complaint, she might listen. Otherwise. your only solution is to appeal to the local law enforcers and find out what can be done in the matter. DEAR MISS DIX: My husband and I have been happily married for 22 years and since our marriage we have lived with my parents. I took care of them. besides raising our family. My sitter. who is n widow and-works to support herself. has come to visit with us each week-end and now that our parents have passed on. she wishes to continue to come. She says she is lonely and wants to be with us on her days off. My children are now married and there is no reason for our stay- ing home week-ends. My husband works hard all week and looks forward to taking me out Saturday and Sunday as we enjoy each oth- er's company. My sister thinks we are selfish and anti-social because we are not home to her now and do not take her with us wherever we go. I love her dearly and want to do the right thing but I am between and betwixt. Who in wrong? DONNA ANSWER: After spending so many years taking care of your parents and your own family. you and your husband are well entitled to any time you have together now. Your first duty is to your hus- band. and your week-ends belong to him. Perhaps you could encourage your sister to seek friends with whom she could spend her spare time. Otherwise there in nothing for you to do but tell her as gently as possible that you and your husband have made week-end plans. These situations are not easy to handle: someone is bound to be hurt. but I do hope your sister can find her own sources of amuse- merit.

Mark pondered, smil- lug down at the dark head below him. Then he caught's London's eye across the dancers in the ball- room and read wrath in it. in a flash he understood. Landon was Jealous! They were in the conservatory now, alone in the sweet scented aisles and something in his look. in the tense hardness of his face queen in this light-gave her a delicious thrill of fright. she was young. and the touch of mystery about him intrigued her fancy. He was so different! "We've only Just met. you know!" she said, as lightly as she could, but her lip trembled; she was caught in the tide of an emotion that swept them together like two chips in a torrent. - "I've known you all your life." Mark answered, with a deep note in his voice. The aisles of the conservatory were tropical; tall ferns and palms waved their fronds above them; lights shone like stars in the high arches overhead; a fountain play- ed amid the full blown blossoms of the lotus, its heavy scent filling the air with the opium of madness. Music came to them softly. seduc- tively, and Mark's hands closed on hers and held them. Her warm, soft hands trembled in his; he knew why her dark lashes swept her flushed young cheeks: the tide had caught them both. Madness leaped up in him: in a moment he would have kissed her, he would have dared even that, for he knew she was in a dream. carried away; then, sud- denly, his sanity. cried out within him: "Thief! thief! You can't steal go-you fool, you fool!" He heard the voice and he let her hands drop. But- he was sway- ing on his feet, sheer madness had him. After fifteen years of misery he loved-loved at first sight! "rm mad." he said, "stark mad" -then he bent humbly and crush- hls lips- "forgive me!" she was not angry; he felt that as he looked up at her. Her eyes were clear and bright. her face had softened. her lips curved; she looked at him a moment, sil- ent. and then, softly: 1 "Youfve been unhappy-lherei a mystery about your life. 1 can see ltl" Suddenly she laid her soft fingers lightly.
