BY GAS when the abdomen is bloated or feel! bloated it is usually caused by formation of gas in me intes- ttnss from eating gas-forming foods-onions. cabbage. cauliflower, lettuce and others. Many cases are due to nervousness which, in addi- tion to causing bloating, upset: the various organs of digestion. An outstanding authority on the normal and abnormal workings of the digestive organs is Dr. Walter C. Alvarez, Mayo Clinic, who in "Archives of Internal Medicine," Chicago, reviews observations on 92 patients with a neurotic (nervous! or hysterical type of bloating with no gas in abdomen (called nonflat- ulent bloating). It is similar to what has been called phantom tumor. where the individual feels that a tumor or growth is present I: abdomen. The euentlal or real fact is tint Ila bloating is not due to any ex- cess of gas in the stomach and in- testines but apparently to a con- traction or tightening of the musc- les iinl'.ng the back and the upper end of the abdominal cavity. Some- times there may be a relaxation of the muscles of the front wall of abdomen. Commonly the swelling increases gradually during the afternoon and decreases at night without the passage of gas. X-ray examination of the blunt- ed abdomen shows no excess of gas, and opening up of the ab- domen by operation never reveals any physical cause of the bloating.

Today, let's talk about the first group of Canada's Food ltules-Mill: Research in Nutrition around tbs world-from ED818116 3-0 Jlvlrn. '0 Canada has proved that the inclus- ion of adequate amounts of milk in the diet results in improved ap- pearance Le. a glossy skin. glowing complexion; and improvement in the physical and mental perform- ance of individuals. Although we could write reams of material on milk, perhaps for to- day it would be wise to consider only a few points on the subject; for l11stance:- What is milk? It is the one food of all the foods that is the most nearly perfect as far as supplying some of every dietary essential is concerned. it is an ex- cellent source of protein ullich is needed for the growth and repair of our tissues. It contains both sugar and butterlat which are used for energy in our bodies. It is the best source of calcium available- niid it is almost impossible to ob- tain enough calcium to meet our daily requirements unless we in- clude milk in our meals; and as you know. calcium and phosphorus are used to build the framework of our bodies, bones and teeth. Milk is rich in Vitamin A and 13. Al- though it is low in iron, as well as Vitamins C and D, the small amounts of these nutrients it does contain are completely utilized by the body. Besides containing all these essential nutrients milk nas the property of being one of our most easily digested foods. due pri- marlly to its fluid form. How much milk do we need every day? Children, up to about twelve years. need at least one pint. Ado- lescents: at least - 1-2 pints. Adults: at least l-2 pint. Is the Pasteurization of milk necessary? Milk is an excellent breeding place for germs-and these germs have been the result of more deaths than we like to think about. The cow may infect her own miur if she has tuberculosis. or suffers from Bangs disease; infection in milk may come from the people who handle the milk and cause the fatal dlarrheas of infancy or cause the epedcmic of typhoid fever or septic sore throat. Pasteurization of milk prevents All these diseases by killing the germs found in milk before it is consumed. Pastcurlzat- ion of milk is a simple procedure. It involves the heating of milk to between 143 and 145 degrees F. holding it at that temperature for one half an hour. than rapidly chilling it to 40 degrees F. There is on the market today an electric Milk Pasteurizier which is quite ad- equate for Pasieurizlng a days sup- ply of milk. and could be used in rural homes where there is elec- tricity. However. where there is no electricity a large double boiler and a good thumomete would serve the purpose just as well. But make sure that you drink lots of milk, and drink it Pasteurized. Milk kept in the home should be kept in sterilized. covered containers, in a cold. dark place. Perhaps you have a problem child who dislikes milk to drink. if so. serve milk often in puddings. cas- serole dishes. cream soups. and use cheese frequently. It is impossible to over empha- size the importance of milk in our diet and therefore its importance to our health. A word to the wise: fewer people would be suffering from stomach ulcers today, if they would soothe their frayed nerves in mid-moming and afternoon with a tall, cold, glass of milk rather than with a cup of hot, bitter coffee or tea. It can change the whole face of the world--try it. Jr b 'N'K'N7x7x7s'A'NK'Is'KE&A7sm&'&s'7:' ; How Cami!!! ( f By Anna Ashley vo2'7X":Vo1'5L'K71' VVVW ” N7dNNNNRD Q.

Because this has been one of those anxious days farm folks receive occasion- ally to remind them that even the best of planning may go astray and as well. we find. to have us grateful for the return of thou days too often regarded as mono- tonous in their passing when all is serene and peaceful and we may pursue without anxiety the even tenor of our round. In the words of a haunting Spiritual we "got trouble" today at Alderlea. i ' I I O 0 We were somewhat amused even in prevailing tcirc instances to hear our small maid discuss this with her grandfather as trailing him this morning we visited a stable. "Wetve all got our troub- les” she observed with sound philosophy "1 have mine, and you have yours. But yours is the worst. Mine". she made light of it "is only that my new dump-truck is broken-but that's no matter for I can buy another exactly the same. But yours might die. gun'- daddy, and if she happens to die. you could never anywhere get an- other llke tour own mare?” That was, and is. our care today: "Our own mare" is ill. a a -0 0 James, who declares to the fam- ily ihat he "just has to walk along the ground in a stable or a pass- age in a piggery" to know at once if any of the animals is ailing, found the mare miserable at feeding time this morning. She had been in harness. and appar- ently in her usual good health at dusk last evening when the farm- ers brought hay from a stack by the line to the barns. "But she hasn't been harmed at all by the light work she's been doing" we agreed with Jeanie when we tried to find some cause for the seizure. "And never sick in her life!” James observed stirring and mix- ing some "home" remedy. O C O 0 "Our own mare” is. we suppose. only an ordinary animal as horses are considered, bay with white markings on face and legs, just faithful and sturdy farm-mare. but being the last of a respected line. is much esteemed especially by those of us who are older and have known them in succaediug generations through the years. Professional help was called in during the day to confirm Jamea' opinion that the misery was due to a digestive upset. O I O O "The Doctor's coming!" one of the farmers said, as the car came in sight and at once Rob's young- est. here with his parents at the time. set up a howl. Doubiless he was recalling a night in the win- ter, when he was ill. Suddenly wakened then he looked up to find a stranger bending over him. and a voice that was strange to him. but kindly. inquiring: "Well how are we now?" But grand- daughter having no fear of the profession comforted him with "It's not that kind of a Doctor. Gage. This one takes care of sick animals. All the same" she added starting hastily towards the door "lid better bring my black dog in -he might feel shy when the Doc- tor's around!" She. not altogether well behaved not yet entirely wil- ful or demanding, but an intrigu- ing mixture of all, amuses us with her comments as she makes her mostly happy way about the place. sending forth tendrils that strengthen daily. and ever fresh and new and lovable entwine themselves spout our hearts. 0 O C We saw a sunny drying wind of day move along the fields that presently will be green like vel- vet or patterned redly in Spring cultivation. and along a passable lane, a first great truck of the season rolled in bearing feed for the weanlings and matrons in the piggerie.s...And how now is "our own mare" sometimes pain- wracked or again obviously ex- tremely miserable and ill? "I can't see that there's any imorov ment yet" Jock reports having just come through the night from the stable. And James shakes a head. "No, no improvement, Ellen" and he sighs ”l much doubt if then ever will be." This then has been our day. today, at Alderlea.

MISS DIX: I have been married for ten years and have two chlldrsn. I love my husband and he has many VOW "M 1llll1NGl- H0 is a good father. generous. attentive. amiable and pleasant at home. blislt his graatwesknesa in women and his lnfidelities make me miscr- a s. him. Ha says I am his only real love. but it is hard for ms to believe Do you think I should divorce my unfaithful hus- band, or should I try to stick it out? ' TROUBLE!) WIFE ANSWER: The man who forsaken his wife for one woman is hopeless because he prefer: this other woman to his wife. but the husband who is lured by t only. as Mr. Howell said. "imperfectly monogamous after centuries 0L Christianity and civilization." So it seems to me philanderlng if he is a good husband in other respects. In deciding whether you should divorce your errlng husband or not. you must take your own feelings into conside atlon. Would you be happier if you completely severed the bonds between you? When a woman loves her husband. as you say you do. often life is meaning- less to her without him. and she is better off with him under any con- ditions than she would be if she divorced him. MATERIAL COMIIOBTS There are material things. too. that you have to consider. You have a good home. a comfortable income. a settled place in society. Think well before you give them up for a little alimony. Finally. when you face the problem of whether you should divorce your husband or not, think of your children. They will be the real sufferers. and you may well forgive your husband much for the sake of keeping your home together and giving your children a father's sup- port. a father's guidance and the start in the world that a father can give. DEAR DOROTHY DIX: I have been engaged for a long time, but have not married owing to lhe fact that the father of my fiance objects strenuously to the match. He has no fault to find with me except that I am five years his son's senior. My fiance says he loves me. but that he cannot break his father's heart by making a marriage that will dlsplense him. He is utterly wretched over the situation and he feels that his father is ruining his life. but he doesn't know any other way out except to break our en- gagement. What is your advice' in the matter? MARGARET B. ANSWER: I think that if your sweetheart hasn't enough man- hood and spunk about him to marry you in spite of his father's silly objection. that you are well rid of such a weakllng. Five years' dif- ference between ihe age of a man and a woman is nothing. Your sweetheart's father is making a mountain out of this mole- hlll in order to camouflage his real motive. which is to keep his son from marrying at all. He wants to keep his boy to himself. So my advice to you and your fiance is to say nothing more to the father about the matter. Just go out and get married and when it is all over he will be as pleased as Punch. There is no reason why you should be sacrificed for the whim of an old man. DEAR. DOROTHY DIX: I live in a small town and I seem to have gotten into a rut. l have a good profession. but it seems like things here get duller and more drab all the time. I would like to leave my home for a new environment and see new faces and have new experiences. Shall I leave deadly monotony for fresh scenes that may possibly mean discomfort? AN UNATTACHED MAN ANSWER: As long as you are unattached. there is no reason why you shouldn't leave home and get the stimulation that comes from meeting strangers and living in a different environment. It will do you good mentally and physically. It will broaden you. educate you. make you more human. A: long as you have a profession there is no reason why you should experience discomfort in a distant place. Personally. however. if I had to make a choice between discomfort and monotony I'd take discomfort any day. YOII and '0”... and Ymlr "o grand brand name-the world over"! Sl.60 up.
