Your Health
How to Keep It.
Causes of Illness
BY DIR. MORRIS FISHBEIN
Editor journal of the American
Medical Association and Of

Hygeia, the Health Magazine.
Almost everyone who specializes
in the study of speech defects now
agrees that the psychological diff
Guilty is probably primarily RESPONSE
Bile in most instances.
The individual stammerer, there
fore, is now studied as to any under
lying constitution tendency to nerv-
BUSINESS. His home conditions, and
the manner of his reaction to them
are investigated. The stammerer's
general health is ascertained, as well
as his general intelligence and edu-
cation. The number OF years during
which he has suffered is taken into
consideration.
The longer the duration of the
complaint, the more difficult to pro-
vide adequate relief. The child who
begins to stammer early in life be-
cause of some state Of fear, depres-
sion or struggle, and who is not re-
lieved before the sixteenth year, is
likely to constitute a much more
difficult case than the stammering
child who is treated early. Many
parents comfort themselves with the
notion that the child will outgrow its
complaint. Sometimes 1t does
through Its own efforts, but these
efforts constitute an enormous strain
on the nervous system and deprive
the child of the assistance it should

rightly have.
Practically all specialists are now
agreed that the attempt to cure
stammering in institutions in which
treatment follows a definite routine
for all, including speech exercises,
gymnastic training. rest, and similar
methods are not as satisfactory as
those in which each patient is
studied az an individual case.
The routine methods have value
when 1t Is found that the difficulty
is largely one Of training. Unfortu-
nately. however, these cases consti-
tute very small minority. Most in
stances represent psychological
problems that can be unraveled only
with long and patient investigation.
including the fullest cooperation of
the person and OF his family. When
the reason for the speech block is
determined and released, the routine
systems of speech instruction may
be more helpful.

Farmer Browns Boy was hesitat
ing. He didn't know whether or not
he dare let Mother Bear see him.
He wanted TO go to the help of the
little cub which was caught by one
foot, but he feared Mother Bear
might misunderstood it. and he
knew that one blow from one of
those paws might easily kill him.
So he hesitated and tried to think
of some plan for helping that young
Bear without running any risk. He
thought of going back home and
getting help. and also of getting his
gun, so that in case Mother Bear
proved ugly, he could protect him
self But somehow he didn't want
to go home.
Mother Bear had once more given
all of her attention to the poor lit
tie cub. She was no longer suspicious.
She had quite forgotten that she
had caught a whiff of the man
smell. She was licking the little
cub and trying to comfort it,

suit was exactly as ii a gun had
been fired. With frightened
"Woof. Woof," Mother Bear sud-
denly dashed away crashing through
the bushes. one little cub at her
heels. 1t was so sudden, so uncx-
pected, that it frightened everybody
excepting Farmer Browns Boy. Old
Man Coyote, Reddy and Mrs. Fox,
and some of the smaller people
who were hidden nearby watching
all that was going on were so
startled by the rush of Mrs. Bear
that they, too. took to their heels
Farmer Browns Boy didn't know
what it all meant. But it was
enough for him that Mother Bear
was gone. This was his chance to

At the first sound of that Whimper-

too. Once more he was uncertain.
Meanwhile the Merry Little
