HOW TO KEEP WELL

taken than can be used by the body.
1t is believed, too, that overwork, both
mental and physical at times has a
tendency to raise blood pressure posi-
bly, through the influence of so-called
fatigue poisons.'
High blood pressure, therefore, is
usually but symptom of diseased or
disordered condition in the body and
should be studied and treated from
that standpoint. However, there is one
apparent exception. Occasionally, more
often in young adults high blood pres
sure is discovered for which no cause
can be aScertained after most pains
taking examinations and tests. This
is termed essential apprehension
apprehension being the word used by
physicians for blood pressure Many
doctors consider this true disease in
itself, for which there is no specific
treatment other than the simple hy-
gienic measures mentioned later. It is
rarely that individuals with this type
of apprehension experience any un-
usual symptoms or discomfort
GAS can readily be imagined if high
arterial tension persists, the arteries
themselves later may become diseased
and arterio- scleroSis or hardening of
the arteries; chronic kidney disease
and enlarged heart result.
"Just what can be done to prevent
this condition known as high blood
pressure? Obviously the answer is to
discover and eliminate as far as posi-
BILE the underlying causes The periodic
health examination, especially from
early adult life on, during which
chronic infections such as those of the
teeth, tonsils sinuses, gall bladder or
pelvic organs may be noted and treat
ed is Of the greatest value in the pre-
vention of apprehension

High blood pressure is direct re-
suit of the contraction of the cardio-
vascular system, usually caused by a
diseased condition of the arteries or by
the influence of poison in the blood,
the health committee of the Mime
sofa State Medical Association declares
in bulletin today.
The committee stress the Importance
of keeping up normal blood circula-
ton and emphasizes the need of find
ing out why blood pressure in GER
tain case has increased and then Striv-
ing to correct the cause as far as pos
sible. The committee emphasizes the
need of moderation in all things to
permit the heart and blood vessels to
perform their tasks under the least
handicap.
"The normal systolic pressure is
about 100 for the male at twenty years
of age. In women it is approximately
five points less" the committee says.
1T ordinarily increases about half
point per year of age so that the
average normal for man of sixty is
about lao. This is accounted for by
the fact that the arteries tend to be-
come elastic as we grow older. High
blood pressure means that this average
normal is definitely and persistently
increased by at least fifteen points.
cit has been demonstrated that these
increases are due to changes in the
heart and blood vessels either from
diseased conditions in these organs OF
by the influence of toxins or poisons in
the blood which cause the arterial
walls to contact. These toxins may re-
suit from acute or chronic infections;
may come from intoxications, as the
long continued excessive use of alcohol
tea or coffee; or may be produced by
excuses in eating when more food Is

FRESH PUMPKIN PIE
SEASON HERE AGAIN

pie, the great American dessert, has
an especial appeal as fall and winter
approach and ones thoughts turn to
holidays and special feasts with pump
kin, mince, and cranberry pies as ap-
propriate finishes" says Mabelle S
Ehlers of the home economics division
University of Minnesota.
Pumpkin pie is suitable for Hallow-
cen as well as Thanksgiving. If pump
kins are used as decorations for a
party, the interior may be cut OF
scraped out leaving only enough meat
to hold the shell together, and the
scraped-out material cooked for pie
Little individual pies garnished with
whipped cream make an attractive SER
vice.
Canned pumpkin may be used, but
at this season when fresh pumpkin is
available it should be utilized. To make
easy work of preparing the pumpkin
cut it in conveniently sized pieces and
steam without pairing. When soft
enough to be removed from the shells
it can be cut or Scooped off easily
mashed, and strained and is then ready
for USE"
The following recipe for this good
old pie is given by Mrs Ehlers:

2-3 cup brown or granulated sugar

2 eggs, beaten slightly
2 cups milk

in a hot oven Is minutes, then reduce
the heat to moderate and continue
baking for as minutes. Two tablespoons
of orange juice or a teaspoon of lemon
juice and few gratings of lemon
peel may be added. Instead of two
thirds cup sugar, one-half cup sugar
and one-fourth cup molasses may be
used if a darker color is desired.

Tell me what she said, Rosie. Maybe
it isn't as bad as you think"
mo. It isn't so bad. But she said
1t right out before everybody"
"Then If 1t isn't so bad, never mind.
Forget about it. 1t doesn't matter"
"Oh, yes 1t does, 1t does. She said
it right out before everybody"
Which was too bad. Rosie was a
very ordinary looking girl, sturdy, red
checked, outSpoken, seemingly not sem
sitive. The teacher had picked up a
bit of her work and frowned upon it.
Goodness me, Rosie, I should think
you might keep your work at least
clean. I hate dirt"
Something in that speech went right
to the quick of RoSie'S spirit. She
collapsed utterly and Sobbed in such a
heartbroken way that one knew she
was suffering, stricken with grief.
'T wouldn't have cared only she said
it right out before everybody" Don't
say it right out before everybody. When
we make public statement it should
concern the public. The whole class
ought to be interested in any remark
the teacher makes. The whole family
ought to be concerned in any state
ment the parents make to the whole
group. Wren only one child Is con-
cerned, speak to that child privately.
You are on delicate ground when you
direct a personal remark to a child
before an audience.
There is another side to the idea.

A Sermon for Today
BY REV. JOHN r. GUM.
Training of Children.

Text: Train up child in the way
he should go: and when he is old, he
will not depart from it."-Prov., xxii6.
Roger Ascnam of Queen Elizabeth's
day spoke of the men who gave much
more to the man who took care of their
horses than to the men who took care
of their children. He said: God that
sittet1 in heaven laugheth their choice
to scorn and rewardeth their liberality
as it should be rewarded, for he suffer-
eth them to have tame and well Or
dered horse, but wild and unfortunate
children, and therefore in the end they
find more pleasure in the horse than
comfort in their children"
Substitute chauffeurs and automobiles
for holsters and horses, and these words
are as applicable today as they were
in the day when Roger Ascham first
uttered them. Many men OF our time
make far greater investment OF
thought in their chauffeurs and auto
mobiles than they, in partnership with
others who share whit them the respon-
sibility, do in the choice Of teachers for
their children. And as to the invest
ment OF money, high-grade chauffeurs
are frequently paid larger salary than
the best of teachers receive.
Watch out, fathers and mothers! !
Better give little less thought to your
chauffeur and little more to the
teacher who teaches your children.
Better invest little less in automobiles
and complain less about school taxes.
And better give little more personal
attention to the training of your off,
spring. Else the time may come when
you will find more pleasure in your
automobile than comfort in your
children.
The gravest of all responsibilities is
that of training children; for upon their
proper training depends the security Of
the home, the church, the State, and
all that we hold dear.

MILADY BEAUTIFUL
BY LOIS LEEDS.

needs tweed ensemble Cor coat suit)
which may consist of long coat and
pleated skirt of the wooden fabric, with
blouse Of jersey or silk trimmed with
the tweed, which makes an ideal cos
tune for cool Autumn days.
Evening clothes are decidedly elab-
crate this season. The bodice may be
unadorned, but skirts are draped and
cut in all manner of original ways. OF
course, hemlineS are uneven, being
longer behind. The leading fabric for
evening wear is velvet, either the stiff
Lyon velvet or the transparent sort. In
fact, stif fabrics that drape pictur-
esquely, like faille, moire and taffeta,
are quite the vogue. Glittering mate
rials are also popular for evening
frocks. These include the gold and
silver tissues, spangled and beaded
silks.
Soft, clinging materials have not,
however, been discarded. There are
many fllmy lace and chiffon evening
gowns. Tulle is cut on tailored lines
for mature women and is bouffant for
the younger set. There is no single
predominating color this year. One sees
delicious pale shades of pink, rose
beige, aquamarine, mauve-gray, as well
as brilliant ruby red, sapphire blue and
greens. Black is always popular as a
foil to fair skin and sparkling gems.
Crepe satin is an old favorite for eve
ming wear. Georgette crepe with a
raised pattern in velvet is much used
also. Whatever its material, the eve
ming gown must be draped or flared,
TERED or shirred or pleated. It must be
distinctive and individual In cut.
Afternoon frocks-which, alas, some
misguided business. girls insist on
wearing to the office-are made of
silk crepe or chiffon velvet. The IN
genuity of the designer is shown in
the skirts, which are often in tiers
of knife pleating or are intricately
draped or f1ared Quaint effects are
obtained by the diagonal or one-sided
placing of trimming.

above fashion notes at your request
hope they will be helpful to you.

Pet Failings and Their Effects
BY LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER.

| Generally the difficulty is something
| which even slight effort would correct,
such as the tendency always to forget
| ones glasses when going out, or even
when coming down stairs in the morn
| ing. It was the latter which was the
| cause Of constant perturbation In one
| household known to me. Never, so the
story ran, and observation seemed to
bear it out, did the wife come to break
fast without making the discovery, after
being seated at the table, that she had
forgotten her eyeglasses. 1t was thing
of small Importance in itself, but the
repetition of this netting circumstances
at a time of day when ones temper
is not apt to be at the best often was
Just the touch to start the day wrong.
Ill feeling resulted which 1t took some
effort of will to overcome. 1t was just
because it seemed of so slight impor-
tance that her failing was allowed to
continue unremedied. The wife who
would have done anything in her power
to be of aid to her husband failed to
see in this shortcoming, so distaSteful to
him, anything worthy of real attention.
High ideals and splendid character
seem to pass by these lesser weaknesses
and leave them untouched. 1t has
nothing to do with ones integrity that
the front door key is always left be- |
hind and must be separately 1eCcned. |
Nor does it mean that sister is lack |
ing in any of the sisterly virtues that |
she invariably calls upon some one else |
for a handkerchief when she is away |
from her home supply. But a kind Of
dislike is needlesSly aroused by such
pet failingS" and part of the annoy
ance Is that the persons offending seem
to have no conception of how much |
some one else may be put out" by
them.
The appeal of won't you try to do
this or that just for my sake?" arouses
q response of good intention. But the
same slip is made next time and the
matter becomes increasingly personal.
II asked you for my sake to re-
member"
"Oh, you're always making a fuss
just because T." +" etc. = etc.. and
the trouble becomes something equiv
alent to a rupture in domestic peace
A definite measure can be devised as
aid to many ''pet failings." A cord
fastened to the handbag, with the key
to the end, will insure its
presence when wanted. A little re-
minder placed in the mirror of ones
bureau as an aid to memory will help
break some of the old habits and es-
tablish better ones. Any one seeing an
effort toward improvement will be in
clined to leniency when the fault does
recur.

OUR CHILDREN By Angelo patri

When child does something wrong,
something that demands correction,
even punishment, speak privately. In
the first place, when you make the
matter public one it loses its personal
relation to the child concerned. It is
no longer his concern, but the con-
Germ Of all the group and the RESPONSE
bility that should be felt is not known.
The child lodges it under the cover of
the group.
Being held up before the group as
un11t makes a child callouS to public
opinion and when that happens he has
lost one of the strong forces of right
eousnesS. Self-respect flies out of the
window when the public Is called in to
witness the failings of an individual.
And, when you speak out loud about
The child does not believe that any
thing that is broadcast about him and
his doings can be SO very bad. He
believes that II it were so bad you
wouldn't tell 1t out among the nations.
Nor would you.
So If you wish to have q child think
your correction important, If you would
save his face and his self respect, if
you would have him consider your
words with gravity, If you would help
the erring child, speak to him pri-
vately.

Thoughtful Farmer Browns Boy.
Think Of others il you would
Find in life the Joy you should.
Farmer Browns Boy.

Farmer Browns Boy is nothing If
not thoughtful. He always has his
eyes open for his little friends of the
Green Forest, the Old orchard and the
Green Meadows. So 1t was that he
spied Happy Jack Squirrel in the Old
Orchard. He noticed how Happy Jack
was going from tree to tree.
II do believe Happy Jack is looking
for a hole in which to make a nest"
said Farmer Browns Boy. II believe
he has decided to leave the Green For
est and come over here. Nuts are
pretty scarce this year and I guess
Happy Jack has decided that he'll fare
better if he stays around here. But
he won't find hole in any of those
apple trees. No, sir; he won't find a
hole big enough for him to make his
home in. Now we'll have to do some
thing about it. Yes, sir; Wen have to do
something about it,"
Farmer Browns Boy waited to see If
Happy Jack would build big nest OF
leaves, as he sometimes does. But that
wasn't what Happy Jack was looking
for for a home. He could do it if he
had to. He liked Summer home Of
this kind and he could spend the Win
ter in one If it were necessary. But
he much preferred to find a hollow
tree, or to get inside building. So
he made no attempt to build nest.
Then Farmer Browns Boy took a
good-sized box, covered 1t with tarred
paper to make it dry and warm. made
a hole in 1t big enough for Happy Jack
to use and carried the whole thing out
to a maple tree in the dooryard. up
In a crotch of this maple tree he
fastened this box so securely that no
wind could shake 1t down.
There" said he to Happy JACK, VINO
was watching from a short dlstance
away, there's house for you. II you
are a wise SQUIRREL you'll take posses
sion of it before some one else does.
Happy Jack didn't wait for Farmer
Browns Boy to get to the barn door.
In fact, Farmer Browns Boy had hard
ly turned his back before Happy JACK
was up in that maple tree. First ne
inspected the new house outside. He
went all over it. He didn't think mucn
of that tarred paper. He didn't IKE
the smell of it particularly well. Then
he tried his teeth on it and he didn't
like the taste of it. OF course, ne
didn't understand that that tarred
paper was to make his house dry ana
warm and comfortable.
Then Happy Jack poked his heS
inside. For some few minutes he dldn
venture in, but was satisfied just to
look around. Then he went in. once
inside, he forgot all about the tarred
paper on the outside. That house was
just the right size. It wasn't too big
and it wasn't too small.
"It's just exactly right" declared
Happy Jack. IT do believe Farmer
Browns Boy put it up just for me. 1t
couldn't be better. All I have to DO
to make it perfect is to make good
