A pamphlet published by [the iratiorrru Association To Con- ‘trol lbllepsy. 22 East 67th st. New i York, N. r, “mien by Hans Hull, 1M. D.. and Helen Clarke. M. A. l5, '“\Vl1l My Child liavo Epilepsyil", [Thirty years ago if this qiiicsiioii‘ ,lrad been put to a physician he: pxould have been very guarded m ‘his reply. Today the physician can‘ give a more encouraging reply than‘- ' c-vcr before. , . Epilepsy is a disorder of function; of the brain in which ilrcre is al-‘ tered or complete loss of coirsciousq gness accompanied by muscular »movements. There need not be vlo- lent contortions of the body with a final fall to the floor or pavement) ‘The muscular movements xrray con- sist of merely twitching the t-yclrds, lor slight uncontrolled perkin; of an viflfm or leg. The so-called seizure .may even consist o! a. momentary jloss of contact with surroundings. inot apparent to the casual cfsscrv- or. The brain sends out elcciric waves in an orderly, regular man- ner. but in the epileptic this reg- ularity of the brain is interupted and epileptic seizures result. It ls behaved that these interruptions are due to sudden chemical imbalance in the brain. As for heredity and the chance of a. ohiki becoming an epileptic. these research workers state that 44 per cent of the patients with a fam- ily history of epilepsy were admit- ted to the hospital compared with only 7 per cent; of patients without a larmily history. They state fur- ther, however. that the chance of controlling epilepsy where there was a, family history are excellent where diet and drug (Phenobarbital and others) treatments are properly given. This will be encouraging in- formation to many with a family ‘history of epilepsy. Man vs. Nature By F. H. MacArthur Much has been said of late re- garding man's place in nature, the general drift of the discussions on the mbject being to show that man is the final product of l pro- cess of development which in the course of centuries has raised him from a mere speck of dust to his present position as head of the animal kingdom. But man is only a part of the material universe, regardless of what theory may be held respect- ing his nature, whether it is part- ly material and partly spiritual, as believed by some. or wholly mate- rial as claimed by others. Science recognizes man only as a mate- rial object, a part of the great universe of matter. That man is subject to the same laws of nature which govern other material objects is proved by the fact that water, gases and other chemical agents affect him in the same way as they affect other material objects. And dues not the law of gravitation hold him to the earth in precisely the same way as it holds an ordinary stone? Man. in common with all ihings. is but a part of the scheme of organization; and while he is not wholly vegetable, he possesses many things in common with thc lowest._form of vegetable life. I O I In order to fully understand man‘s relation with the universe. we must study philosophy in its broadest meaning; that is, study nature until we understand what lies at the bottom of the founda- tions of all existence. animate and inanimate. When we have done this we shall understand why a lifeless stone may rightly claim kinship with mankind. We shall learn, too, that there is a com- mon brotherhood existing between all material things. Nor will this knowledge. as some might fear. detract from the dignity of man. When the Creator gave man dominion over the fowls of the air, the beasts of the land, and the fishes of the sea. He did so hoping that man would use this power with discretion ln preserv- ing this rratural heritage, not only for his present needs but for suc- ceeding generations. It is indeed a sad commentary on man's dominion when we see how badly he has used this ppw- or. how utterly wanton has been his destruction of many of the (continued on Phge i2) .113” SOAP SCUM are the wbitmt, brightest clothe: you've ovr seen —and they're sweeter 8 ways: l.

DOROTHY DIX SAYS - Spoiled Brat Miserable Girl Blames Parents For indulging Her As Child _ DEAR DOROTHY DIX: What to do with a spoiled. good-for- nothing brat? No, I haven't got one. 1'm it. I have been petted and spoiled until I um of no use whatever. I am selfish, lazy, impudent. I had two years at one of the best schobls in the State, but I did nothing with my chance. 1 am not fitted to earn my own li\'ing and I can't cook or sew. I get up at noon every day and sit by the fire until bedtime. I am utterly miserable and make every one miserable around me. I am afraid to marry because I AHOW I would ruin any man's life. When I tell my mother and father that l um their fault and that they should have disciplined me, they say I am crazy, it is no onc-‘s fault but my own. They What to do? E. D. C. ANSWER: A girl u intelligent u you are should see the answer to that question herself. Reform, and the way to reform is simply to face about and cure yourself of your faults. Fortunrtcly for you. you are still young enough to make over your life and to make whnt you will of it. Yllll 53y you are selfish. Well, then, why not teach yourself to prefer other to yourself? If you are lazy, don't lie abed in the morn- ing- Get up and go to work. Get you a job. if you can. If you cnn‘t. help your mother. If you are impudcnt. shut your teeth on the in- solcnt speech that rises to your lips. Teach yourself to show consid- erntion to your family. Break yourself of the habit of quarreling and fault-finding. NO GREATER CRIME You are right in saying that the blame for what you are rests on your parents’ head rather than yours. I don't believe that there is a greater crime in the world than spoiling children, for it not only xivrccks the life of the child itself but of all who are brought in inti- mate contact with it. Parents seem to think that it’ they will not discipline their chil- dren they will somehow slide through the world doing exactly as they please. Never was there a greater mistake. The discipline that father and mother did not give them life gives them with a heavy hand. and when they have learned their lesson it is -too late to do them any good. Don't let this be your unhappy fate. Save yourself while there is yet time. DEAR DOROTHY DIX: Don't you think that wives should co- operate with their husbands to thc extent of permitting them to in- vite their business friends to dinner when they happen to drop in from a neighboring city? Some wives rio not seem tn realize the import- ance of this bit of ltospltaliiy in the progress a man is able to make in the business world. I know some who dare not invite any of their business friends to a meal because of their wives’ objections. A CONSTANT READER ANSWER: A wife is certainly a very poor hclpmeet to her hus- band who isn‘t willing to take the trouble to get up a good dinner for one of her husband's customers, and who doesn't put on her pret- tiest frock and her sweetest smile and do her beet to help sell her husband to the man who may hold his future in his hands. For these little friendly contacts are of the greatest importance to a man. More sales are made over a dinner tnhie than are over a ntahogany-iop desk. and it lli when a client is soothed and fed and in a melting mood that he is most apt to lend n willing ear tn a new proposition. More than that; employers and businessmen like to size a mun up against the background of his home, and nothing creates a more favorable impression than for him to have a "iico, well-ordered, well- kept house with a wife at the head of it who shows she is clever and capable and a real asset to her husband. DEAR MISS DIX: Our fathers and mothers do not allow us to go out with boys. but last week-end when they were away we had a wild petting party. We were drunk and did not know what we were doing. Please, please, tell us what to do. We dare not tell our mothers. ‘IZWO FRIGHTENED GIRLS ANSWER: Take your courage in both hands, girls. and go at once to your mothers and make a full confession of your folly. It is your only salvation. Don't go to strangers for help. Don't teii your secret to other girls or to people you may find it easy tn confide in. Tell it to your mothers, nu matter how silly or indiscreet or wrong you have been. They will forgive you and help you. , DOROTHY DIX DOROTHY DIX cannot reply purlonally to renders. but will 1m- wor problems of general ‘ ‘ ‘ through her column. How Can I l ! !
