Be Happy and Well

Irregular functioning and the
clogging of our waste pipes is one
of the commonest reasons for i'll
health 1t is such a slight thing.
however. that it is generally ignored
until some specific disease sets in as
a result of the daily neglect. A
prominent physician who has made
a life study of the effects of the
mental attitude on the physical
we'll being says of constipation:
Many more women are consIIpat-
ed habitualIy than men. There are
many causes for il. but the common
est is physical inactivity. Regular
exercise in the open air is the most
important means of prevention.
Worry. nervousness and low spirits
delay and weaken the processes OF
digestion, and finally the habit Of
taking laXatives.
The majority of cases can be
cured without drugs II the proper
treatment is instituted. We take so
much trouble nowadays to have
nourishing. digestible food that we
often fail to give the stomach anu
intestines enough work to DO.
Coarse fiber green foods and fruits
should be eaten daily"
Another failing of women is that
of delaying to answer the calls OF
the body system when they occur.
Regularity in disposing of the
waste products of the body is es-
sentiaI to healthy living.
Your own body is more important.
o you excellent housekeeper. than
your kitchen sink or your bathroom

not end with personal hygiene.

What S in a Name?
PORnA.
BY Mildred Marshall

Shakespeare called one of his most
charming and lovable heroines by
name which has singularly un-
pleasant Significance; Portia 10
translated from the. Latin to mean
'of the pigs" It comes from por-
Gus, the Roman word for swine and
the Porcii were breeders of pigs. ac-
cording to the agricultural desig-
nations of the old Latin. But the
Romans did not scorn that ,particu-
lar beast and thought nothing of be-
slowing its name on several other
clans.
Cato's daughter was called Portia,
or as the Italians spelled it. Porzia-
Her fame brought the name into
great popularity in her native land.
Shakespeare took it for his play:
.."Cato's daughter. Brutus' Por-
tia"
In The Merchant of Venice" he
uses the version which he coined to
name the lovely heroine who defeats
the crafty Shylock and saves her
lovers life. Like Juliet. Portia Is
beloved as an ideal of womanly
beauty and her name has ceased to
be regarded as a fanciful creation
and now ranks with the feminine
appellstives commonly bestowed.
The sapphire is Portals talis-
maiic gem. 1t is said to attract for
her divine favor and to preserve
her from all evil. Friday is her
lucky day and her lucky number.

Walters got base on balls. Russell

waiting for somebody to cover second.

was safe.

Hooper lifted one to right field and
Meusel made an exhibition throw to
third to cut off base runner, if any
happened to be running. Then came
Oscar Witt and shot one into the right
field stands, fair by few inches, for a
home run, which cleared the bases and
gave the Sox lead that looked like a
cinch.
Aaron Ward used his bean almost ex-

have been Red Sox drive to victory.
Witt slapped hit out of Pipp's glove.
Menosky raised pop fly to third and
Ward came in diving to get it. He
caught the ball and rolled over. AS
he came up for air and to make the
throw, the pill dropped out of his fin.
Witt started for second, and to the
multitude it looked as though both
runners were safe. Ward got up with
due deliberation and threw the ball to
first base and claimed the double play.
1t happened so rapidly that most of the
spectators were puzzled, but Umpire
Chill saw the play and naturally called
both runners out, despite g concerted
