SECRETS OF
HEALTH


VOU, of course, have heard
l. about diabetes. You know
that its leading symptom is the
presence of sugar or glycogen in
the urine. You may also know
that there can be too much sugar
in the blood. This is called hy-
perglycemia by the doctors.
Now let me ask you If you have
an entirely other set of symptoms.
Are you tired? Do you get un-
usually fatigued on comparatively
mild exertion. especially some
time after meal? Do you find it
hard to concentrate or to pick up
a lost thread of thought? Have
you a headache in the morning.
which is relieved by food and
passes off later in the day? More
serious still. do you get onsets of
tremor and incoordination. or gid
diness on sudden movement, or re-
curing attacks of migraine and
vomiting?
You may be suffering from
"hyperglycemia." This means
that your blood does not contain
enough sugar, and that you are
the opposite of diabetic.
1t is well for you to understand
this condition as explained by DIR.
c a m m id ge (practitioner) thus:
Blood sugar is furnished by the
liver, which stores a substance
called glycogen, but to turn glyco-
gen into sugar, according to recent
research work the help of certain
ductless glands is needed. Some of
the glands help and some hinder
the manufacture of sugar, and the
state of the blood sugar is a bal
ance between the two. Deficiency
in the pancreas, for instance,
means too much blood sugar, and
deficiency In the parathyroids may
mean too little ductless glands de-
pending very largely on the nerv-
GUS system, nervous disorders or
stresses may alter the state of the
blood sugar considerably.
The sugar in the blood is with
drawn by the muscles and used
as a source of energy. That is
why competitors who fall out ex.
hausted in marathon races usually
have abnormally low blood sugars;
their store is not equal to the
unusual demand made on it. If,
however, they eat sugar during
the race, they can stay the course
and finish with a normal percen-
tage in the blood.
The muscles contain a certain
amount Of glycogen, the stuff Of
which sugar is made. This is
used up before the muscles start
drawing on the sugar actually in
the blood. So it happens that
healthy people, taking moderate
exercise, can get along on the
glycogen and not have their blood
sugar depleted. Strenuous exer.
ton causes exhaustion In un.
trained people, chiefly hAcauss

I guess there was a pretty bad

At any rate, Mrs. Brown had
her way and after a time Hester

If nothing had ever happened.
Only they don't seem to have any
ambition any more. Hester has
stuck in the same grade all these
years and Wilfred doesn't even
try to get raise.
Mrs. Brown is certainly proud
of her job. She is always remind.
ing other mothers how their
children have gone off and left
them and usually gotten into no
end of trouble, She hasn't much
sympathy with them when they
worry.
Mrs. Brown is very sure she is
a good mother. AS a matter Of
fact she's nothing of the sort.
She is a fungus, living off the
sap of young life. She has no
real life of her own. and she does
not allow her children to have
any. There should be a law
against Mrs. Browns form Of
mothering just as there is against
other forms of murder. Some
day, when we're really civilized,
there will be. n

APLEA FOR THE BIRDS

boasts that they tell her every
little thing they do. OF course,
they don't. Once in a while
Hester smokes a cigarette with
the other girls. She doesn't really
care for cigarettes but it makes
her feel reckless and for a little
while life seems more colorfdl.

he shakes dice back of the cigar

an injured fellow.
But, Of course, little things like
that don't count. They are really

dull, perhaps, but as Mrs. Brown
says, they never give her a
minute of worry.
This wasn't always so. She

their muscles have not learned to

mild exertion, however, causes
defective distress in those whose
power of storing glycogen is de-
fective or whose glandular balance
is abnormal. This always occurs
in such people unless food, espe-

blood sugar level.

LESSONS IN

The way to a mans heart is
not through his stomach. but

path to his vanity is paved with
applesauce.

that he should have been

-ARNERS are urged TO obtain all In

E. j. Bell of the Montana Expert

Among 80 farmers who shipped tneir
wheat direct to terminal markets ABOUT
as many lost money as gained. returns
of these 80 farmers ranged from 10 cents

what would have been received had the
wheat been sold at the local elevator.
This does not mean. says Mr.. Bell. that
direct shipment of wheat Is no practlcai
or advisable. but IL does mean that the
farmer must know his grain and his mar
kets if he is to arrive at the best means
of marketing. In his studies he has
found that there are conditions under
which the wheat grower may get the
most for his grain by selling direct. like
wise there have been occasions when sell
ing at the local elevator has returned the
best price. The conditions which must
be considered to determine which Is the
best quality Of wheat. buying margins OF
local dealers, costs of loading and ship
ping and terminal markets prices.
Intelligent marketing must be based
on sound information. according TO the
studies made by Mr.. Bell. In one i'm

state the wheat growers have established
an organization for the purpose Of reliev-
ing Individual farmers OF the details OF
securing necessary information. The or
ganization supplies its members with
daily market reports, provides q free pro-
tein testing nd grading service and rem
ders other valuable aid to assist farmers
with their marketing. Where no such
organization exists it is necessary for the
