, day we might rise, above the
shabby limits Of our lives, and
pass so vastly over petty things
and presently be out among the
winds and stars.
But, though we'd had the dream,
we'd never flown. Yet always we
had known the dream was there
and known, too, that we were bet
ter than we seemed because a
flying dream was hidden in our
hearts.
Then when at last we saw the
Zeppelin in its might, and thought
OF all the dangers Of the flight
and how. though crippled, 1t
had conquered space, our own
dreams wakened and we rode
the air. And wept because for
that brief instant we we're what
we dreamed.
A Zeppelin comes-we answer,
you and Land for moment we
are lifted high. Then the light
fades-our feet are once more
bound-the Zeppelin has vanished
in the sky.
BUT IN OUR HEARTS THE
HIDDEN DREAM GOES ON.
AND WHAT MAN DREAMS

MEDITATIONS
OF A WIFE

How to Keep Woman in Her
Place

How to Keep . Woman in Her
Place
TlEIE greatest study Of mankind,
today, is how to keep a woman
in her PLACE! To a comely and
eligible bachelor, 1t iS the burn
ing question of the hour.
All the newspaper columns on
love, marriage and manners are
running over with advice TO the
Perfect Lady on how to accept
the attentions or repel the ad'
vances of a Gentleman.
But what the Big Boy would
like to know, these topsy-turVy
days, is how to receive or discour-
age the attentions OF a modern,
go-getting Girl!
When she calls him up three
or four times a day, at the office,
for instance, how can he make 1t
clear to her that she is embar-
raising him to the blushing-po
and that all the men in the office
are kidding him. and all the
stenographers beginning to treat
him with frigid scorn.
When she takes advantage OF
the fact that he is i'll and down
and out. to send him flowers, shall
he acknowledge them with a
pretty pink scented note OF thanks,
or would that give her too much
encouragement?
When she drops by for him in
her red sport car and he inno-
Gently permits her to take him
for a drive, shall he let her snug
gle UP to him and respond to her
kisses, and thus arouse false
hopes in her breast, or shall he
coIdly reprove her-and get out
and walk home?
Shall he accept the jewelled
cigarette holder and platinum
cuff.links she insists on giving
him for Christmas-or shall he
return them with a greeting card,
and the explanation that his
father won't permit him to receive
anything from woman, except
book, a bunch of violets or a
pocket comb?
And when she comes right out.

she's going to marry him, how
can he prove to her that she

what is the most graceful way of
letting her know that some other

ing and embarrassing to a nice,
well-bred young man. It's deli
cate and difficult situation for
him, because he is as yet about
six laps behind the modern girl,
in all these things. -
He has not yet reached that ad-
vanced stage where he feels that
he ought to slap girl on the
wrist for kissing him against his
will, or to ask her If her inten.
tions are serious and If she can
afford to support him. Yet he
is way beyond the humble stage
where he would meekly and hum

up his hair, and then build un.
warranted hopes on his acqui.

In short, he is In that unhappy
transition period where he doesn't

equal and gentlemn. What he

SECRETS OF
HEALTH
-Ry Dr. Brice Belden

AAs 1850 s~@4
TlPILEPsY is a term that is
~ applied to q variety Of con
ditions in which there Is usually
to be found convulsions and some
degree, at least, Of unconscious
ness. 1t is disorder Of the nervous
system; 1t occurs in repeated at
tacks C'sspells,'' "fits,' "seizures''
which are similar n character.
and the tendency is for the at
tacks to become more frequent
and more severe.
It should be emphasized that
every convulsion does not mean
epilepsy and, contrariwise, there
are types of epilepsy in which
commissions may be caused by d.
gestive disturbances. teething, ETC.,
and such convulsions do not in
dicate that the much more seri-
Gus disease of epilepsy is develop
ing or will later in life. Rickets
may likewise cause convulsions.
And It must also be borne In mind
that a child's nervous system is
much more unstable than an
adults and therefore is much
more liable to explosive manhes-
tations. But in all such conditions
the convulsions disappear when
the ricketts, or whatever the under
lying cause may be. is removed.
IN so.called Petit Nal mean-
ing "Nstle sickness, really minor

sient loss of consciousness Whlch
NAV last from a second or SO to
a half minute. No conVuislon'
however accompanies it.
Epilepsy itself is spoken OF as
"Grand Mali literally, big sick
ness.'O Petit Nal attacks may lead
to Grand Nal attacks and often
the subject suffers both types OF
seizure as the malady advances.
In a typical Grand Nal spell
the individual suddenly feels un-
easy. There is premonition that
something is going to happen TO
him. And, luckily, this warning

to seek a place of safety.
Following the warning uncon"
sciousness sets in quickly. Every
thing becomes blurred. Dizziness Is
marked. The individual, II stand
ing, falls to the ground.
Next comes the phase of the
conVulsion. Sometimes there is a
general rigidity of the entire body
(the tonic" spasml which is fol-
lowed by violent, 1erky shaking
of the muscles (the "clonic
spasm).
After the CONFUSION the patient
usually regains consciousness
slowly and then, due to the ex-
haustive nature of the attack,
he falls into normal sleep.
Other types of epilepsy are to be
met with, but the one just de-
scribed is the typical form, the
serious variety that may eventu-
ally lead to mental impairment.
One should not jump to the con-
clusion that il a child or adult
suddenly has a series of conVul-
sions that therefore true epilepsy
is beginning to manifest itself.
In any case, the services OF a
physician should be called upon at
once, especially since, If the case
actually is epilepsy, every means
should be employed to check its
development II possible.
Epilepsy still remains one of the
most puzzling OF diseases. No two
cases are exactly alike. Each case
should be studied carefully and as
an individual.

TuNNEY AND PUBLICITY

Gene Tunney. in Italy, continues his objections to
cameramen. He took camera away from photog-

to break another camera if it's did not leave
him alone.
This irritation is quite natural and easy to UNDER

great fame something of bore.
Yet Tunney might bear in mind that the publicity
which he despises has been the principal cause OF
his rise to fortune. Whence came the tremendous

EARLY RIPENlNG WHEATS

sHAKEspEAREs LAX IDEAS

Writing in the current issue OF the Golden BOOK,
Frederick S. Boas, English Shakcspearean authority,
declares that If Shakespeare writing for the stage
today he would be up to his in suits for violation
Of copyright.
Shakespeare borrowed his plots with free and easy
hand In his day this considered quite proper;
so he wrote "As You Like It. from another play written
few years before, turned another rivals play into
"The Winters Tale and lifted half dozen more from
Boccacco.
Today such practice would involve him in countless
lawsuits. We can only say, however. that it IS ex
tremey lucky for the world that there were no copy
right laws in Shakespeare's day. The worlds liter
ature would be much poorer if Shakespeare had not
had rather lax ideas about appropriating anothers
work.

THE DIET FOR DIABETES MEL.
1rTt10

In curing this disease It is neces-
sary that the patient conserve the
nervous energy, as this disease is
often brought on by nervous strains,
shocks, worry and overwork. Sleep
and periods Of rest are essential to q
cure.
In spite of the seriousness OF this
disease, under ordinary methods OF
treatment I have found that it is
easily durable in most cases. Those
cases that are most serious have
destructive areas in the liver, pam
creas or kidney. When diabetes oc-
ours in young people 1t Is usually
most serious because it is often ac-
companied by destructive processes
in some of these organs.
The proper way to begin treating
diabetes is to use citrus fruit last,
employing either orange or grape
fruit juice, using glassful every
two or three hours. Warm enemas
must be used regularly every morn
ing, and q whole body massage
should be given occasionally. Vigor-
Gus skin friction is advisable after =
cold shower bath morning and eve
ming.
The citrus fruit fast should be
continued until all traces of sugar
have disappeared from the urine ar1t
even a few days longer. In severe
cases It may be advisable to use
shorter periods Of fasting at inter.
walls of one or two months. Aftel
the fast the diabetic patient may use
well balanced diet, but he shoult
be careful to avoid the use o.
starches and sugar for some time t
| come. This is model Of the die
after the fast that I usually recon-
mend for my patients:
Breakfast: Choice Of one kind O
protein, such as eggs, nuts or cheese
Only one egg should be used. or tw'
ounces of nuts, or two ounces Q
cheese. Three or four slices Of Mel
d ba toast. This is toast dextrinize'
completely through, which change
the starch.) A small dish of stewe
fruit, such as prunes, figs, raisins
applesauce or baked apples-n
sugar being added. Between break
fast and lunch at least one quart Q
distilled water should be taken.
Lunch: Choice Of one or more
desired of the following vegetables
Celery, spinach, small string beam
: asparagus, cucumbers, egg plan
! small beets and tops. summer squasl
small turnips and tops, small cal
! rots and parsnips, lettuce, okr
: chayotes, oyster plant (salslty
mallow, kale, zucchini, parsley, el
dive, avocado, (alligator pearl.
; ripe olives. These may be used bot
cooked and raw. In the afternoon
. least one quart of distilled watt
should be again used.

E lowing proteins: Beef, mutton, tn
