How To Keep
Yourself Well
ny G SAM, NJ. ID.

In dealing with malnutrition, it is
extremely important that every
child have properly regulated rest,
both physically and mentally. Prob
ably the greatest advantage of a
sojourn at Sanatoria and other re-
sorts, is the intelligent feeding, the
regularity OF hours. and the insur-
ance of graded exercise and intelli-
gently chosen rest periods.
If the child is decidedly below
normal, it is much better to remove
him from school for a time at least.
and then to have him go for only a
half day until he shows evidence OF
improvement. The physical must al
ways be kept in advance OF the
mental.
After exercise or play, If the child
Is to relax sufficiently, it must be by
living down on his back. In this way
10 or Is minutes will give more alb
solute relaxation than would prob
ably 20 minutes or half an hour sit
ting down. These rest periods should
be taken If possible just before
meals.
Then there is the lack of parental
control. This Is sometimes even a
more potent factor than poverty, in
asmuch as in this case there is uSu-
ally the absence of the necessary
knowledge to guide the parents in
either feeding the child or in any of
the hygienic precautions necessary.
Hence the necessity in treating these
cases in the closest possible cooper
alton between the health department
the school authorities, the parents
and the child.
Headaches
My husband, twenty-one, seems
to be in good health, but has head
ache so much. He takes plenty of
exercise. He coughs some at times.
He is very thin.
You ought to see that your hus-
band consults a qualified physician
and submits to a thorough medical
examination. In this way the cause
of the headaches, and, perhaps. of
his leanness may be discovered.
1t may be nothing serious, and In
any event 1t Is wise to secure prompt
medical treatment.

HOROSCOPE

Copyright, 1921, by the Mcclure
Newspaper Syndicate.)
Many stars emile on the earth
today, according to astrolosy. Mer-
curry, Uranus, Jupiter and Neptune
are all in benefic aspect.
The sway is unusually helpful to
all the activities of men and women,
stimulating endeevors of every sort
Publicity should be especially eff
fective at this time and will bring
profit to magazines and newspapers.
for there will be much demand for
the dissemination of propaganda.
Leases and contracts signed today
should be in every way satisfactory
making for success.
There is an encouraging direction
Of the stars for speculation. which
should be exceedingly profitable if
begun under this rule.
The stars today seem to make all
sorts of risks alluring and the temp
tation to gamble in stocks should be
resisted.
Travel has the best possible sign
that promises safety and success in
journeys whether they be by land or
sea.
Uranus gives interest in romance
and courtship today, so that he who
would avoid courtship should be un-
usually cautious.
There is a brilliant outlook for
| aviation on which the government
| will have reason to focus attention
without delay.
Jupiter again forecasts better
business conditions and a general
readjustment OF certain manufac-
turing interest.
One OF the prophecies made by
the seers Is that the coming summer
will reveal surprising facts affect
ing commerce., due to some unex-
! pected circumstance.
Panama is to come much into the
discussions of Congress, owing to
canal problems.
A scarcity of corn In many parts
Of the world dependent on it for
food is foreshadowed.
Warning is given to observe all
the rules for sanitation since pesti-
lence is ~presaged for the autumn,
IL the signs read in the October
| eclipse of the Moon are read Alright.
Persons whose birthdate it is have
the augury of a prosperous year, but
| they must deny themselves foolish
extravagances. Travel is indicated.
Children born on this day will be
generally fortunate in their UNDER
| takings and probably will rise rap
idly in their careers
