Women's realm PAGE TWO THE GUARDIAN NOVEMBER 21, 1951 That Body Of Yours By James W. Bu-ton. ILD. ””" PREVENTION OF HEART DISEASE For several years I wrote fre- quently about the liver and gall bladder because the liver does more different jobs than any other organ. An active liver and gall bladder means better health and buoyancy of spirits whereas a sluggish liver and gall bladder makes one ”yellow" physically and emotionally. By keeping the body reasonably active and not eating too much fat or starch foods. the liver and gall bladder are kept in good working condition. Today I write more often about the heart and blood pressure, be- cause heart and blood vessel dis- eases cause more deaths than any other disease. In the American (Heart, the bulletin of the Ameri- can Heart Association, we read that more persons die from hard- ening of the arteries (high blood pressure) than any other single cause. Coronary heart disease. a disease of the blood Vessels carry- ing blood to the heart muscle it- self, is the narrowing and block- ing of one of these vessels. And the number of these deaths seems to be increasing: first, because more people live longer and, sec- ond. because this form of heart disease is recognized more often. Coronary heart disease occurs more often in men and at the most important period of the life span- middle age or younger. In 97 per cent of cases, coronary disease is due to a hardening change in the inner wall of the blood vesel which so narrows the vessel that it takes much more pressure to push blood through. sometimes a branch blood vessel breaks and for a. time a part of the heart is short of nourishment. :By resting a month or more, the vessel heals or small adjoining vessels make up blood needed. In other cases a small piece of this hardened lining breaks off and cuts of"! circulation of blood else- where. Hardening of the arteries (arter- iosclerosis) cannot be controlled as can some diseases, so what can be done about delaying or prevent- ing deaths from high blood pres- lure? The first suggestion is that ob- esity (overweight) be prevented. Overweight puts an added strain on the heart and blood Vessels: a reduction of 20 to 30 pounds which it maintained, may reduce blood pressure by 20 to 30 points. While weight is being reduced, drugs , that relax the whole body. relax the blood vessels and preve'nt"emo- sional disturbances from raising the biood pressure are used. Lately the use of drugs to keep the blood in a more fluid state prevents clotting. thus preventing obstruction of blood vessels. Be careful medical supervision and prevention of obesity, many with heart disease live the allotted span. 'OIHhIulgInoIllINowIlInuIdWhlnnnvon.' 'MIJObyITIOm&UIJILIY'SOWNYAII.lN.. HowCanI!!! Q. How can I clean woodwork or furniture that is oiled or var- nished? A. Clean with a soft cloth mois- tened with lemon all. Then rub this briskly into a polish, using a clean. dry polishing cloth. Or you may use kerosene and linseed oil. mixed; but lemon oil dries more rapidly. Q. How can I revive a fern? A. Often a fern that is consid- ered dead can be revived by stand- ing the pot. in a tub of hot water for an hour. or until the water be- comes cool. Q. How can I give an flavor to prunes? A. A delicious flavor will be the result if a small stick of cinnamon and several slices of lemon arc added to the prunes while they are simmering. added 45m" gHouseI1oId Scrapbcuoitjf By tloberta Lu 3 ..mf.xm m:mx.m'I Rust Spots on Lace Iron rust can usually be remov- ed from lace by use of lemon juice and salt, and exposure to strong sunlight. But if this is not wholly successful. why not dip the lace into coffee and make it ecru, thus covering any remains of the rust spots?

I 40&t ELLENIS DIARY B1 on Inland Fumes: Wife We bedded down a. precious rosebush today in an effort to save it for another year. The bur- ple shadows of evening were set- tling then on stream and pond, and the sound of James calling the calves home to their stable echoed tunefully along the valley. A car moved along the road- way; a truck out the mill-road, and somewhere beyond the hill- top a dog was helping gather cows to their shelter. Granddaugh- ter came then, walking along the worn path beneath the white birch tree on the lawn, a kitten in her arms. she regarded us curiously. "Vvhose bush is that?" she queried gently, "yours or ours?" We pressed clay up and about the stem and branches. Out of these, bare now, would come glistening green foliage in a spring miracle and later while birds carolled beneath skies crimson roses would bud and unfold in July's sun and loveliness. "Oursi" we replied. "Yours. do you mean?" she asked, a shadow crossing her face. Then without waiting for an answer. she commented "I think people should plant roses not for them- selves, but for everybody!"

Clumps of Fever - few keep still the green- gold of their foliage to bring to mind tales of old gardens and of storied years. And sometimes the shrubs bloom faintly with the plumage of the sparrows, that come to settle there in a. drift of wings. But past the seeming death and decay of our garden will come another spring. And out of these November days mcllowly sunllt or frosted and damp, will appear presently a new season - touch- ed with mystery, solemn and gay and beloved.

Nov. 20-(CP)- was a tough decision to make continue her career on the stage or start life anew. helping others Patricia Godfrey chose the lat- ter, saying goodbye to grease paint and the British lights. She has gone a long way on the wel- fare road, recently becoming as- sistant to R. E. G. Davis. Exe- cutive Director of .he Canadian Welfare Council. As she sipped a cup of coffee in her new office here the 43-year- old former Toronto actress ex- plained the steps that decided her career. Her brown eves twinkled as she recalled her childhood dreams of going on the stage. She did her best to make them come true. While studying for a Master's degree at the University of Toron- to, she worked and saved to go to England. To gain Cxuerlence she acted in Toronto dramatic groups. Finally, she went to the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts in London. Two years later she started making the rounds of booiaing offices "until my shoes nearly fell off." At this stage. shortly before the second World War. she did some social work. She had landed t part in a play. But she had five weeks to kill before starting to work. She joined an ambulance corps and in less than five weeks had written and passed a first-aid exam. Big Opportunity Then came the break - a part with an all-star cast in Charles Morgan's "Flushing Stream," 1: hit in London and scheduled to make a tour of Canada and the United States. She forgot every- thing else. including the ambul- ance corps. ''I had what I wanted." she re- minisced. The play was a success in Montreal, but she received a jolt in New York. it was a flop there, and closed In two weeks. Against the advice of friends, she returned to London not know- in what to do. Then she remem- bered the ambularne corps and 'witli the war in progress, joined the women's voluntary service.

He (as evidenced in his treatment of your son) and a liar. All he wants is to share, if not actually take over, your nice home and be supported of your good job.

The Experts Say I By KAY REX Canadian Press Staff Writer 0 U 0 DON'T BE T00 SUSPICIOUS OF LOW PRICES Housewives are getting too con- ditioned to high prices. when they do find something that's cheap they won't believe either their eyes or their noses. They'll squeeze it. smell. Finally. they'll end up by asking the clerk what's the matter with it. If he says nothing is wrong they won't believe him anyway. They'll go off in high dudgeon and buy something that costs twice much. Because it's twice as ex- pensive, they'll be certain it must be good. The Canadian Association Consumer: is worried about this too-good-to-be-true trend among women shoppers and is trying to stamp it out. "Let us plan our buying care- fully. and...aiiow more time for our purchasing," it says in the bulletin it distributes monthly The C. A.C. told of an experi- ment in British Columbia in which the manager of a chain grocery store tried to prove that consum- ers buy by price. Be divided a batch or identical tomatoes. sell- ing part of them for 25 cents a pound and the rest for 29 cents. At the end of the day all the 29- cent tomatoes had been sold. Hardly any of the 25-cent ones were touched. The Ontario lb-uit and Vegetable Growers Association found in a survey that when foods went be- low a certain price. people wouldn't buy them. Hence. at. the height of the lettuce season people wouldn't buy a tlve-cent head of lettuce. We saw the same thing happen in Toronto-at the St. Lawrence market. Chickens were selling at one stall for 50 cents a pound. One woman was suspicious. "What's the matter with them?" she asked the vendor. He was indignant. "Nothing's the matter with them." he replied. she moved on, but we bought one. It proved to be the cheapest and best chicken 'we've eaten in ages. Just goes to show that nobody can afford to be suspicious all of the time. Tasty And Thrifty The C. A. C. recommends this luncheon dish to budget-conscious housewives: After vegetable soup has been made from a meaty soup-bone,cut all the meat from the bone and put it through a food chopper with an onion. Scoop the marrow from the bone. add to the meat. Add poultry seasoning, parsley. salt. pepper to taste. I Moisten with soup. Cook till the onion is clear. The mixture should be of a consistency to spread eas- ily. Make thin pancakes. Spread with the mixture and roll like I jelly roll. Keep warm in oven un- til ready to serve with the soup.
