EMOTIONAL CONFLICTS AB A CAUSE OF "TRAP" HEADACHES I attended I largo medical con- vention some years ago and in the department of eye. ear, nose and throat the subject of headache was discussed by several specialists. While it was admitted that eye strain was a cause of headache in some cases, it was not the com- monest cause. At is more recent convention, the speakers were of the opinion that eye strain was, after all, 1. very common cause. In Medical Journal Of Australia. Dr. J. Bostock states that in an at- tempt to discover the cause of his own headaches. he hrst investi- gated his eyes for errors of refrac- tion. The purchase of glasses with various corrections for his astig- matism had. however, only fleeting effects. Focal infection and intoxic- ation or poisoning from wastes in his blood were then investigated, but despite removal of his tonsils, and purgatives, his headaches con- tinued. It was suggested to him that the chief cause of his headaches was repressed hate. Repressed hate is related to conflict. There is war in the mind between what he desires and what he can obtain. There is an underlying frustration: the suf- ferer is in a trap. He wishes to es- cape but the exits are barred. Vvhen this situation arises, the headache appears. Dr. Bosiok gives illustrative ex- amples of ittrap” headache and shows that treatment of the emo- tions by psychotherapy is highly satisfactory. The patient is en- couraged to dig down into his in- ner consciousness and bring to thel surface the conflict and its causes. By carefully discussing this con- flict and having the patient un- derstand how this conflict causes his headaches. the patient can, by help of the physician or by him- self, work out the solution to his problem. The headaches will then disappear. Now headache. like other aches or symptoms. can be caused by real or organic disease but we must always remember that emo- tional disturbances, such as con- flicts of the mind, can cause these same symptoms. "Trap" headache is not the com- monest type of headache but emo- tional disturbances are a. common cause. Indigestion, constipation, sluggish liver and gall bladder, in- fection are more frequent causes but if investigation shows none of, these conditions to be the cause,l then the emotional conditions: should be investigated.

They did so. but the animal was not filled with the proper spirit of urg- ency and repeatedly finished last. Coming home one day. one of the owners said: ”I think we'll throw the dog intae the Clyde." "Naw," said his friend. "that's too cruel. We'll tak' of! the leash and run away from it!"

Friciidlincss or per- sonality can go far today. How- ever, friendships with women are under stress during: these current configurations. Maintain self-con- troi in any emotional tension that might, occur. even if you feel oth- ers are entirely iii the wrong, Tact and patience on your part may smooth the way for others as well as for yourself. For the Birthday Those whose birthday it is may be called upon to bring all their faculties into force in order to as- suage dynamic tempers in both domestic and business life. unset- tled emotional conndcnces may not be as important as you think. Rely only on facts and logic. A child born on this day will be a pillar of strength in his home and community. Its financial se- curity and local prestige is as- sured as well. -qN Modern Eliqueile By Robert: Lu g Q. What is the distinction be- tween "American plan" and "Euro- pean plan” hotels? A. "American plan" means so much a day for room, including table d'hote meals. In the "Euro- pen plan” hotel, the prices of rooms include no food. And the restaurant charge is so much for each dish ordered. Q. At a wedding reception, who should stand in the receiving line, and in what positions? A. The bride should stand at the right of the bridegroom, with hcr maid of honor on her right, the bridesmaids next. Q. May one use the knife to cut open a muffin? A. Never!

And often it is with a mind divided. we must remain at home, one which in part goes with them to their field-work while the other is busy at the varied inter- ests at home. "Yes. Ellen" a friend of the fam- ily, accustomed to, and in love with the life of a great city, com- mented on an August day, ”I could like living on a farm-for awhile." We were seated on chairs on our bit of lawn, and we can recall wondering if she noticed the swarthy hummingbird, flittiig then among the plants in the border. And could she hear the drowsy hum of the summer about us? And the gentle murmur of the over- flow to the pool below, from the gates in the dam? She glanced at the slope oppos- ite. crowned by the house on the hill; measured too, the sturdy lines of pictured trees, the spruces and firs that for ages have guarded the banks of the river "down nlong;" saw the woodlands here and there climbing the rise in their matching shades of green. fields and pastures between; saw the millpond as it rested lazily in the SUHSMHP. beyond the near field, clad greeiily in turnips and man- gels. . . g Took in the graying mill-gables in their fetching back-ground of leaves; caught the new white of the Bubllc Bridge as it mirrored itself in the pond; regarded cattle graz- ing on the hillside and Mr. Cis mares, the black and the bay, laz- ing in the shade on their pasture. Then "It's nice here, Ellen" she commented "very restful I would say, but tell me, what do you do for excitement?” She chuckled then not at all certain how her 0hSe'ri'al-ion would be received sob- ered. and queried: ttDoes anything ever happen here?" She is among the number who have a notion that farming is a treadmill, an old grind, of work and that nothing lovely or oven disturbing ever hap- pens to vary our (lays. We remembered her words this evening when Rob's stopped by briefly. Gage bearing two pepper- mlnl-S. Well Wrapped against mi- crobes and suchiike elements, to his izmndparents. and Jamie to tell of his latest angling exploits. "Do you know what we have?” Gage recalled some momentous news. "A frog in the pump-house! Yes. sir, a nice fat frog. And is he pretty - and can he jump! You'll thinlcquite a lot of him when you see him!" Does nothing interest- ing happen on farms? Are there no exciting beauteous moments in our lives? 0 Are our lives static? This after- noon for example. when a great peace lay about . . . with the sun radiant over the landscape. And a bit of wind in the leaves and the grasses, stirring them gently, as in the haying. And an autumn- like haze, the smoke from sum- mer's late fires dim on the far hills. Then. "right at once and noth- ing first" two fat hogs chose to tour the world about, a cow snap- ped a confining wire which al- lowed her admission to the field of mangels, and Jeanie, passing a piggery on the way to mend these breaches heard a disturbing sound. which upon further investigation sent feminine hearts bounding . . . and our thoughts went winging nbove aftermath, grain-field and woodland, over the haunts of 'coon and fax. of rabbit and squir- rel, of crow and of raven to sum- mori James from his stoooking. But whether it was because of James. canny fellow that he is had our anxious telepathy or that approximated the hour to a nicety, presently the little truck eased to the yard to relieve us of every concern. What. no excitement! No day passes on this or any farm that does not leave its share of it, its bllsses, and its moments of sad- ness and disappointment as well.

In : well-adjusted home and have received more than my share o lovk and attention. But! am not completely happy. I feel a dtflnlle M in my life. My parents have no ties on me: they are used. it is true, but independent. I believe my solution to real happiness rests in gettinx mB"lPd- on ll” whole, I enjoy being with people of the opposite sex but I have never had a desire to marry, have never fallen genuinely in love, and children in gen- eral "set on my "SW93"- Sometlmes I feel a certain envy when I am around a happily married couple. Then too. I W ,. realize that this present. arrangement of living with parents, wh e convenient and wonderful. cannot last forever. That is what worries me. and makes me feel I should do something about it. Have you any suggestions? C F ANSWER: Marriage and the propagation of the race are the natural destinies of man, and unless these purposes are fulfilled the” is bound to be a sense of futility in life. However. "0 Existence. H18!- ried or unmarried, is perfect; sometimes the unmarried achieve a larger sense of happiness and contentment than is ever experienced by those whose matrimonial experiences have been horrible failures. , MARRIAGE IS A GAMBLE At: present. you are surrounded by 10V9- 5eClH'llY and hlIl'm0lW- Marriage insures none of these. You, therefore, are confronted with a choice of sticking to the blessings you have or flying to those ”yc wot not of." I Bachelorhood has its advantages. and you do.well to consider them carefully before venturing into the uncertainties of wedded bliss (or misery). Now all these little homilics sound very well, but the crux of your whole position lies in the fact that you have not yet met the girl with whom you can fall in love. And you most assuredly will! It. happens to everyone! When she comes along. you'll l0FlZel 5” ill? advantages of living home with the folks. all your f-orbodings about marriage. and even children will suddenly all blossom into little angels whose company you adore. I don't think you are at all in need of psychiatric care. You simply haven't found what you want. Continue to enjoy the com- pany of girls and you'll soon find one whose smile chases all your doubts away. i DEAR MISS DIX: My 22-year-old daughter was engaged for nine months lo a very nice, sociable boy who loves her very much. She. however, is very moody and always wants her own way. She is constantly picking arguments with him. Now she has told me she doesn't love him, and he wants me to intercede for him. I feel very bad about this as he is a nice boy and she has been very mean to him. Should she return his ring and gifts? D M ANSWER: There's nothing you can do to win your daughter back to her boy friend, but since she doesn't love him, and hasn't treated him too well, I should think he's better off without her. Since he has chosen you for his confidante. try to make him see the situation in this light. He's better off learning these things now than if he had married, then found out your daughter was spoiled. The ring must be returned. gifts may be kept or returned, de- pending upon their value and the occasions for which they were giv- en. A birthday or Christmas gift, not too costly, may be retained. DEAR MISS DIX: I am a girl of 15 with a talent for music. I play the guitar and sing. Someday I hope to sing over the radio. My problem is bashfuiness. Even though I have sung in public a few times, I get so self-conscious I'm afraid I'll never realize my um- bition. How can I overcome this fault? BROWNIE ANSWER: No one with your accomplishments should be self- conscious. When you are singing, think only of your audience, and not of yourself. After all, putting all thought: of self in the back- ground is the only way to appear at ease in public. I hope you'll get the chance you want and will be successful in your career.
