EGGS. k0UL'l'lY As rheumati is the oldest dia- ease known to man. it is only nat- ural that various mistakes as to its cause have been made in past years. one of which was attribut- ing the cause of rheumatism to eating too much protein food. es- pecially meat. This idea persisted for hundreds oi years until Drs. Alton Fletcher. Toronto. and Ralph Pemberbon, Philadelphia. were able to show that starch foods - sugar, bread. pastry-not meat. were an important factor in caus- ing or aggravating rheumatism. Another condition or disease for which the eating oi meat has been blamed .for many years is high blood pressure, which is the prin- cipal cause of brain and heart: strokes. While most of us are of the op- inion that war never does any good, there was one lesson taught us by World War II that is of great importance to physicians and to patients with high blood pressure. In the American Journal of Medical sciences, Philadelphia. Dr. J. Kohari-Kucharik points out that during the siege of Budapest in 1945 the supply of animal pro- teins was exhausted. This circum- stance made it poaslble to study the influence of a diet free of animal proteins on high blood pressure (pyvperteiisioni. He reports obser- vations on patients who had been treated for two to five years and the majority of whom attended the outpatient clinic fortnightly. Be- cause of the war. only 39 of the original 150 patients could be fol- lowed. The period during which animal proteins-meat. milk, eggs. poultry - were unobtainable lasted about 10 months. The 30 patients with long-standing high blood pressure did not show any consist- ent change in blood pressure after this period. The above fact gives ample proof that proteins are not a factor in causing high blood pressure: In fact. while it is not so stated. pro- teins. especially meat. give a hot- ter fre in the burning up of food- stuffs by the body than do other foods. which should help the re- moval of harmful wastes frcxn the tissues and so favorably affect blood pressure. Wastes left in lower bowel drag on the nerves in the walls of blood vessel: ,'increas- ing blood pressure and causing fatigue. However. for the average indivi- dual free from high blood pressure symptoms, the amount of proteins eaten should be in gprctportlon to the amount of physical work done daily. The less work done. the fewer proteins are needed to re- build worn cells. -.

Thus orlppled. the geese were stuffed with corn and dough every three hours, the food being shoved down their throats with a stick.

' ' "'- I ANSWER: Not, all children area ungrateful. . . There are plenty of them who appreciate all the VI 4, sacrifice: that their parents made for them. and in hundreds of thousands of homes today there are old fathers and mothers who are being cherished and cared for by sons and daugh- ters who are trying to repay their debt to them- -naouonr IT on siavms . I My sympathy for the parents who complain of the ingratltude of their children is always tempered by the knowledge that they brought their sorrow upon themselves. All children are little savages to start with. They have to be taught the amenities of life. They have to be taught gratitude and appreciation and that they must make some return for the kindness that others show 'hem. Those who Hound these fundamental rules of decent behavior in their chllilien while they are still babies; who make them say "thank you" for every fayor that is done them; who teach them that because mother and father do so much for them they must do something for mother's and father-'a pleasure, never have cause to bemoan the ingratltude of their chil- dren. ' And those who do not do this. who spoil and pamper-.thelr chil- dren. who make slaves of themselves to their children. who let their children run roughshod over them. must simply pay the price of their weakness and folly. As you sow you must reap. . Bur inasmuch as your son has shown that he iaiso unaopreclative of what you have done for lilm in the past, why continue on a course that has brought you such unhappiness? Why continue to be the filmlly goat? Why not let him do a little of the sacrificing by re- fusing to let him bring his wife to your house to live? He tells you that his marriage is none of your business. Certainly supporting his wife is none of your business. It is his. When he finds out hoiv much it costs to run a home he will have more understanding. at least, of what you have done for him. DEAR MISS DIX: Here in the picture. The husband and wife both work. The wife gets up and gets the breakfast and calls her husband to it. It makes him perfectly furious and he says: "As long as you keep calling me I will not come." There Is a scene. Things are patched up and wife continues calling her husband to meals, and the scene is encored. Sometimes the wife eats her break- fast and when he comes down and finds that she has already eaten he is so sore that he just won't eat. This makes the wife cry be- cause she canit bear to think of her husband going to work without breakfast. Her weeping infuriates the husband so that he picks up any piece of furniture that might be near and breaks it up. Before she was married this girl was very gay and robust. but now she is thin and sad and nervous. She has asked me what she can do and I do not know what to tell her. - ANXIOUS FRIEND ANSWER: The only thing that she can do iE'to leave him. That is the only possible way by which she can find out whether her hus- band is trying to drive her away from her home by making every- thing so unpleasant for her that she canlt stay in it. or whether he is just a halfwlt baby who goes Into tantrums and breaks up things just to amuse himself. - But I think that the wife in this case shows just as little inlel. ligence as the husband does. and she is just as much a silly little girl as he is a bad little buy. If she had any sense in her head she would never call her iiusband a second time to breakfast after she found out that it got upon his nerves. She would let him .get up when and how he pleased and if he was late for his work she should worry. DEAR DOROTHY DIX: My husband and I are young people Who both work. are healthy. have a nice home and should be happy. but the fly in the ointment is that my husband is the greatest pes- simist and grumbler in the world. Nothing In the world is right. Life is so hard. Everyone is getting ahead in business but him. which lsnt true. And so on and so on. What shall I do before thls wrecks our marriage. as I am afraid it will? ANXIOUS ANSlVER: Of course, you realize that when the complainers Cbmplmn they are having the time of their lives and they wouldnt cheer up at any price. I doubt there is any cure for them. but one Woman 1 know at least made her pessimistic husband do his moan- ing away from home by getting out a pencil and paper and beginning to make out the list of pail-bearers for his funeral whenever he would be!-fl" C”mP!8'"'"8 elm"! his health and nrophesying that he wasn't long for this world.

Wa are fortunate in-this garden to have beautiful Maple trees at the top of the rose garden and out the lane the newly planted Maples are now in crimson and golden col- or. our Sugar Maple (Acer Sac- charum) is our finest tree: in the Autumn it is very beautiful, and in the early Spring it can be tapped and the sap makes delicious maple syrup. Anyone can plant maple trees if they have a large garden, and they are easily obtained. The Mountain Ash is new cover- ed with large 'clustera of bright red berries and it is a hardy tree in this country. I rememberwhen a child in my grandmother's garden. I was asked to eat some of these berries - how they puckered my mouth with their bitter taste and my tormeriters had a good laugh out of my ignorance of the nature of the bright. scarlet fruit. .'rhere are many lovely shrubs that are colorful in Autumn. The Berberis (Barberry) I would place at the top of the list. They have red leaves and red berries and a a delight .at this time of year. Specimens on the borders of the lawn have grown into beautifully shaped large bushes and the scar- let berries make them as desirable as any lflowering shrub; these ber- ries stay until spring if the birds. and the partridge. and the phea- sant do not eat them; they are very fond of them and they come to the garden shrubs just at twilight and in the early morning. The Pyracanlha (Firethorn) is a brilliant with orange-scarlet berries remaining late in winter; it is a little tender in our climate and needs a sheltered position; and "19 SHOWDGITY (Sympborlcarpoa) is very hardy, and it grows espec- ially well in the shade. The foliage of this old shrub is a dense dark green and the snow-white fruits are quite attractive; it is planted in this garden in many places.

The common snowball is very lovely in the Autumn with its colored.leaves and because of the beauty of this shrub in Summer and also in the Autumn. it is a most desirable small tree. The cycle of the seasons, with their never-ending vairlety. their constant changes. is certainly not the least of a gardens charm.
