Cooking and Health.

The foods we consume are the prime
sentials in the building and preservation of our
bodies. Use of foods and their preparation, are
questions receiving more earnest attention than
ever before. Under the old order we ate what
liked and as much as we felt We needed to
satisfy our appetites. We have been learning
that there certain foods that we should
esChew and the quantities of different edibles
should be carefully watched, lest we accumu-
late various ills that are attributable to over
eating or to improperly balanced diets.
1t is with view to helping the housewives
of; Rock Island that The Argus is conducting
cooking school this week at the Masonic temple,
1t will continue through Friday. There are ses-
sions every afternoon. with competent demon
strators and lecturers. K is service that is
entirely free to you, and you are urged to take
advantage of the rare knowledge that these
women are impartng to the women during their
stay in Rock Island The attendance at the
school thus far has been large beyond all
pectations, indicating the general interest that
attaches TO cooking matters among those who
are responsible for the preparation of the foods
that are served on the tables of our homes.
The course of instruction at the school is
very thorough and you are at liberty to ask for
enlightenment on any' cooking problem that
too much about the intelligent preparation Of
foods. and The Argus cooking school was
ranged with q view of giving the women of
Rock Island the benefit of the most modern
and scientifically approved methods of prepar-
ing the meals they serve IN their homes. The
Argus cooking school affords you a course OF
lessons that would cost you a tidy sum were
you to receive them at an institution specialize
ing in such education

The Viking Spirit.

In one Of the hardest storms of the season.
the wind so heavy that it had been periIous to
turn in its course, the Esthonia was heading
for the Gronstadt, Norwegian tramp, which had
sent out its S. O. S. Again the tramp sent out
an S. o. S. Between times its wireless operator
gave snatches of information. THE steward is
making sandwiches for the lifeboats. Looks
like we are going picnic" A later mes
sage: I'VE are sinking astern fast; boats are
smashed; can't hold out longer" And then the
last word the world was to hear: Where did
put my hat-sorry couldn't wait-pressing
business elsewhere-skol!"
In those jerly utterances OF the invisible
waves the world hears again the story of cour-
age of those who go down to the sea in ships
Not all our devices have made the winds and
waves subject to man. Year by year we grow
stronger in the combat, but neither the lordly
Titanic nor this tramp freighter could say, any
more than the frail vessels of Colummus or the
viking, "I am safe" But if our minds cannot
subdue the forces of nature, neither can the
angry wave beat down the spirit of man. A
wireless operator, the sentinel of a new age on
the sea, sends his message that certain death
is at hand and prolongs it to add jest-jest
after jest-not the mockery of a fool but the
challenge of a hero, the word of a brave man
whom the sudden ending of his world had no
power to alright.

The Spring Fever.

Your annual attack of spring fever is due.
Watch for the symptoms Scientists never have
been able to agree exactly what causes
spring fever. Some describe it as lethargic
drowsiness caused by the body elimina-
ing poisons accumulated during the
physical inaction of winter. Help the elimina-
tion by taking long walks, breathing deeply or
starting garden.
Another theory about spring fever is chat
it's reaction from winter, fine warm weather
making droop into the sluggishness of the
tropics, home of our prehistoric ancestors
Maybe, too, it's an inheritance from the times
when the cave man, after long and monoton-
Gus winter in his den, strolled out to bask
lazily in the warm spring sunlight Hard to
work at all on a hot summer day Rainy
weather makes many folks sluggish and drowsy
Research by Ellsworth Huntington of the Ma
tional Academy of Sciences shows that human
efficiency goes up or down with the mercury of
the thermometer. At so to 65 degrees we do
our best physical and brain work. and are
healthiest That's why the temperature of
house, Office or workroom never should go
above 6S in winter
Sap starts rising in the trees. Grass spouts
green Plant life BUDS, Chirping birds pause
on their way north The ice goes out, fish run
on the surface. That is sprng-the sunrise of
new period of life. The backyard gardener
stirs. The farmer whistles in the fields The
golf bug smacks his lips. The fisherman goes
over his tackle. The small boys swarm with
marbles, baseball, kites. Spring is the time TO
take new lease on life, to get a fresh start
Fill your lungs with fresh air and go to it The
best thing about spring fever is that it's pre-
lude to another period of intense human activity
Except, of course, for the gent who has spring
fever sos days of the year.

Mrs. Sanger and japan.

Margaret Sanger. American birth control ad-
vocate, went to Japan to preach her gospel
The Japanese government. unfriendly to any
such meddling with japanese ideals, forbade
her to enter except on condition that she would
refrain from propaganda while in the country
Perhaps one in million of the Japanese popu-
lation had heard of Mrs. Sanger or her hobby
up to that time. Now, thanks to the govern
ments action, the Japs know great deal about
her theories, and the newspapers and public
are debating them with great fervcr. Thus
birth control propaganda is sweeping on with
such force as its prophet never dreamed of. 1t
is another illustration of the power of publicity
and the peril of tampering with it on the part
Of anybody unaware of its potentialities. Gov
ernments usually have just about this sort of
success when they try to impose censorship on
anything.

She impresses that the pilgrimage Is to be SER
ious in character and that she wants women
with the proper understanding and apprecia-
ton Of the importance of the mission to strive
for place on the committee.
None will question the high motives prompt
ing this new undertaking. Miss Morgan and
her associates are persons of large means. most
OF them. who striving to make the world
a better place in which to live, and they deserve
encouragement In their labors. Yet one can't
help to pause for brief reflection on the oppor-
tunities these good people are overlooking for
similar service right here at home Too many
of us seem TO have forgotten that America,
too, was in the recent war, and that America
suffered, and is still suffering, and will con-
tinue TO suffer. Perhaps our cities were not
moved by cannon, but we made tremendous sac
rifces in blood and money. America helped
France with men and money. The money is
still owing, thousands Of our boys are sleeping
in French soil and other thousands are at home
carrying the scars OF battle.
The war cut deep into America from various
angles. It brought on industrial and bus
mess depression under which the nation still is
struggling. There is plenty for Miss Morgan.
and her friends to do at home They don't have
to cross the Atlantic TO find outlet for their
philanthropic or charitable impulses. There is
work for them in hundreds of American cities.
Neither should it be necessary to send 300
American women to France to convince that
nation of the friendliness of America We
proved our loyalty in Frances darkest hour. 1t
is not to be denied that France is suffering
from the after effects of the war. So is
America. In the meantime France is owing
America hundreds Of millions of dollars ad-
vanced to help finance her war. What really
ought TO be happening is the formation of a
delegation of 500 French women to come to
America to emphasize the desire of France to
strengthen the bonds of friendship between
that nation and America.
The Rock Island Argus and daily union., 1922-03-22
Charity Should Begin at Home.

The American Committee for Devastated
France has come forward with a novel enter
prise 1t plans to send a delegation of 500
American women to France next summer for
the purpose of making a tour of the country
and mingling with the people in a way to prove
to them that there exists a close bond OF
friendship between the peoples of the two ma
tions. Miss Anne Morgan of New York is head
of this American committee. She has recently
returned from visit in France, and she re-
ports that there remains much to be done there
in helping the country to rehabilitate itself
from the destruction OF war. The new enter
prise will take the form of voting contest
conducted by the newspapers. the woman in
each city receiving the greatest number of votes
to be chosen as delegate, all Of her expenses to
be paid by the organization Of which Miss Nor
gan is the head. In the contests for the selec-
tion of delegates each vote will cost 10 cents
The money thus raised will be used in the work
of the committee. Miss Morgan warns that the
women should not get the notion that they are
going to France merely to have a good time.

Time to Bathe the Feet.

Time to Bathe the Feet.
/ At this season of the year good
many people who ought to bathe
their feet do not take the trouble
because they do not believe 1t is
necessary. and some of them not
only do not believe it is necessary
but wax wroth with me when l
urge it upon them in the interest of
personal health and public SANTA
ton. I myself am not strong for
bathing, nor from not bathing.
am Just moderately fond of bath
ing.
But to get down to the feet. Many
superficial or casual readers some
how acquire the notion that / do
not believe in drugs. This is a
mistake. ! have much faith in drugs
intelligently used-and that means
only when they are given by a ply
siciap who understands his busi-
ness What I think about the un-
intelligent use of drugs, that is,
self prescribing by the layman, is
another matter.
Some medicine is harmless and
often beneficial in the hands of the
layman. One of the best medicines
I know about, one in which l have
implicit faith born of experience
both objective and subject, is the
hot mustard foot bath as a relief
and remedy for most of the acute
respiratory infections in the ear
lier stages-such as coryza, meas
les, bronchitis, tonsilitis, laryngitis,
pneumonia-and also as a most
grateful relief and a most potent
remedy for acut middle ear inflam-
nation (Which usually complicates
coryZa or rhinitis) and for the at
tact of acute sinusitis and for the re-
lief of the pain in acute alveolar alb
cesses. popularly called "ulcerated
TOOTH" until the dentist can be
reached to drain the abscess.
The technique of administering 4
hot mustard foot bath to a sick
person should be familiar to every
housewife in time of sickness If
more of our wives, sisters, mothers,
aunts, daughters and even our
grandmothers, l regret to say, were
familiar with this maneuver and
less versed in the use of nostrums,
it would be a good thing for public
health.
In recommending the hot mus
tard foot bath as an emergency or
first aid measure of first import
ance l have usually specified that
it should be given to the patient in
bed. To attempt to apply this TO
one sitting up is bad treatment for
fainhng may occur. The patient

One of the tri-city newspapers, in printing
an interview with grand opera singer who ap-
peared here this week, stated that the famous
diva consented" TO receive the reporter in her
hotel apartment The reader is given the i'm
preston that the reporter probably had diff
cult time in reaching the presence of the song
bird. The truth of the matter is that this
singer made it point to invite every news
paper in the tri-clties to send reporter to in
terview her. proving that she is wise woman
who appreciates the value of publicity. The
day has passed when reporters have to seek out
celebrities who live on publicity. The celebrity
seeks the reporter.

@. When was the first big con-
crete ship built in the United
States? A. j. W.
A. The first large concrete ship
built in the United States Of type
designed to be propelled by motor
power was the Faith" ship of
5000 net tons cargo. The ship was
launched in San Francisco in 1918
and was put into service the same
year.
@. What was meant by the dol
lar-a-year man during the late
war? Did anyone in the United
States receive only a dollar a year?
A. A. r.
A. A dolIar-a-year man is a
man working for the government
for one dollar a year. 1t is against
the policy of the United States gov
ernment to employ anyone without
a salary Therefore, these men
who were giving their services to
the United States charged the Unit
ed States one dollar year.
q. What causes the explosion of
dynamite-a shock or spark?

not by a spark

every instance to call in visiting

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.
For Modifying Milk.
Which is preferable for use in
modifying milk for infant feeding,
lime water or milk of magnesia?
MRS. T. B.
Answer-Line water, generally.
An ounce af lime water is usually
sufficient in the days feeding mix
ture. In many instances oatmeal
water (if the bowels are little
sluggish) or barley water (if there
is tendency toward looseness of
the bowels) is preferable to lime
water. These cereal waters aremade
by boiling heaping teaspoonful of
the oatmeal or barley in a pint of
water for an hour and straining.
When oatmeal water or barley wat
er is used for diluting it may be
used in any quantity to replace
water and lime water or other al
kali.
Hear Freedom Ring?
Just a word on bobbed hair. The
way girls or boys are benefited by
cutting off long hair is the freedom
from the long hair which really
regenerates many, gives them a
change of health. I speak from OBJ
servation in my own family and
my friends. MRS. P. K J.
Answer-A great many young
women seem to find the hair an af-
fliction-or rather the care of the
hair. They write and ask me to
send them information or advice
about it.. Please tell me-" they
say, "ho& I can get rid of a red
nose and the care of the hair" Il
hope we may soon see the last OF
this kind of freedom.
Prophylaxis of Goitre.
You mentioned zone drop of tine
ture of iodine in water night and
for six weeks" as a pre-
ventive of goitre in young girls.
Would it be all right to give one
drop in glass of water each night
and each morning for six weeks?
MRS. H. L. A.
Answer-Perhaps it is not i'm
portant how much or how little
water is used to dilute the daily
dose of two drops of tincture of TO-
dine for six weeks each spring and
each fall. Usually the more water |
used to dilute the iodine the less !
to taste.
