A CURE FOR HICCUPS

Occasionally we read of some
prominent individual dying Of hic-
cups, after practically every remedy
was tried without success. Most
cases Of hiccups are only of short
duration, however, and usually the
nervous system can be restored by
taking a long drink Of cold water,
or breathing in and out deeply a
number Of times.
This disorder often comes on aft
er hearty meal which causes a
pressure on the diaphragm. It is a
spasmodic contraction Of the muscu-
lar diaphragm, which we use for
breathing. This contraction is either
nervous in origin, or is caused by
irritation or pressure on the dia-
phragm.
When too much food starts the
contraction, this may continue until
the stomach has become empty.
which may require eight or ten
hours. BY this time the diaphragm
is apt to be sore and irritated and
keep on with its spastic jerks unless
q remedy is employed.
Hiccups may develop in the course
Of wasting diseases or from brain
irritation, kidney stones or pelvic
disorders. In any Of these condi-
tions, the principal disease should
be cared for, but a great relief will
result from stopping the hiccups.
l have been able to stop every
case that has come to my attention
within few minutes by the simple
treatment of pressure upon the
central cervical plexus. This is a
collection of nerve bodies located on
each side of the spine about the
middle of the neck.
The patient may administer this
treatment himself by placing the
fingers Of each hand firmly on the
sides of his neck, pulling forward
and, at the same time, bending the
head back as far as possible. The
reason is that this pressure inhibits
the nerve impulses Of the phrenic
nerve which is one of the important
nerves supplying the diaphragm.
This nerve may also be deadened
temporarily by the application Of
ice to each side of the neck.
Should this self-applied treatment
not be sufficient to stop the trouble,
| it would be we'll to call in an
osteopath or chiropractor who, by
making pressure at exactly the
right spot, will stop the spasms al
most instantly.
OF course, you realize that if
there is chronic cause, the hiccup
is apt to return in few hours, and
every effort should be employed to

Big Bill Haywood died Friday in Moscow, far
from home and friends, an exile by choice, en-
Uttered and probably disillusioncd.
As labor leader he found his opportunity
in Idaho many years ago in bitter and bloody
labor war.
He progressed until he became the head of an
ultra-radcal labor group. committed to direct
action and finding field for it's activities in
certain well-recognizcd industrial wrongs.
Haywood was an atheist revolutionist, a
turbulent.
What made him so? That is question of
ramifications.
It is quite we'll established that he did not
find happiness in that Utopian Russia of his
dreams.
He died at variance with the governmental
policies of Soviet Russia. He wanted more
direct action.
OF the dead we speak no ILL.,
How much happier Big Bill Haywood would
have been if he had appreciated the institutions
of his country the opportunities it's democracy
affords, the ideals it strives to attain as they
are interpreted in the terms of human hap
piness.
Appreciation Of them came to him by his
own admission, when it was too late. How
tragic!

Question: Housekeeper writes:
II am very interested in your health
column, and am being greatly bene-
fitted, but am having difficulty in
knowing which foods to combine.
Will you please give some kind Of
a rule to go by"
Answer: Proteins, which are the
meats, cheeses, nuts, etc., properly
combined with non-starchy and
salad vegetables, such as string
beans. spinach, celery, ETC., are ex-
tremely easy to digest. The
starches, such as potatoes, maca-
roni, rice, should also be combined
with the non-starchy or salad
vegetables but never with the pro-
teins. Just remember this, and
study the menus given in this
column each week and it will soon
become very easy for you to select
good foods and combine them COR
rectly. I have prepared special

charm and bigness. 1t gives an assurance of
elbow room that once enjoyed may never be
forgotten.
There probably are no more colorful home
spots in America than some of those found
along the Missouri river in Burleigh and Morton
counties. Aboriginal man first appreciated
them as the record shows. He found happiness
in them. The Mandans chose sites for their
villages under the shelter of the hills by the
side Of the river. They developed strong and
sturdy race
The happiness they found in life here was re-
Elected in their progress. Their villages were
substantial. Their wealth was considerable.
Their progress in the domestic arts was marked,
for they were happy and contented. They saw
life and they lived it in the larger aspect Of
their kind.
The Mandans are no more. But the white
man who followed them is moved by the same
influences. The river is his sea. The hills are
his mountains and the prairie just beyond them
is an added attraction.
If you would have picture of the quality Of
cozness at it's best it is the homes nestled in the
hills along the Missouri.
Some day painter will find them. They
will live upon canvas. They are art un-
embellished affording opportunity for land
scapes that have as much natural beauty as the
hills and meres and pastoral spots Of Nor
mandy. Every one of them is picture superb.
It's lights and its shadows change with the sea-
sons. But it is always a picture.
