THE BANK OF HEALTH

In the interests of good health, someone has likened
the body to q checking account in the bank. The check
ing account will continue growing as long as the deposits
exceed the Withdrawals. Neglect to make regular de-
posts and the account is soon overdrawn. Drawing
checks before making deposits to cover them is bad bank
ing. and neither banker nor depositor feels 1t ease when
Withdrawals keep too close step with the deposits.
Isn't it very much the same with your private health
hank?" AS long as you deposit a lot Of health to your
credit you will have q lot Of health at the disposal Of
your check book. The blank checks In q check book In
the bank Of health are not any more inexhaustiblet than
those in any other sort of check book. Unlike financial
banks. the bank of health doesn't provide additional
checks when your lat check Is gone.
Deposits in your health bank may be made in many
forms. They may be regular sleep, proper eating. exer-
cisins or recreation, plenty Of work with both mind and
body. right posture, fresh air, communion with nature
and othe: health deposits. Every waking and sleeping
hour MAJ thus be made q deposit in the bank Of health.
When people are not making deposits they are quite
often drawing checks. In the bank Of health every de-
post which Is withheld Is . withdrawal. You observe
regular hours Of sleep or draw . check on your health
balance. You eat at regular hours and the proper kind
of fcod in the proper way or you make q demand on that
health balance. You must work. play, think. and laugh
or cause q run on the bank of health. Deposits in this
bank are always working capital but they require de-
posts to keep that capital working.
People in poor health know that the bank Of health
pays q high rate Of interest, compounded, to It's consist
ent depo6itors.

E. Parents
WHY NOT COOPERATE
lBY Alice hudson Pealel

- ONeSOA1 N0O
If you are the mother Of q small
child and you live anywhere except
in the wide open spaces Of the coun-
try, you doubtless meet your neigh
bors every morning and every after
loon shepherding their little ones out
walking or watching them play.
Has it ever occurred to you that
you and a few of those other young
mothers might save yourselves q great
deal of your very busy time and ben
eft your children intellectually by q
little cooperation in their care?
know Of group of mothers who
worked out such q scheme of CO.
operation. There were three Of them
and there were five youngsters all be-
tween three and five years of age.
Each mother assumed entire RESPONSE
bility for taking all of the children out
to play two days of the week. Each
mother thereby gained four free days
a week in which to do extra home
keeping jobs, shopping. part time
work or the attendance Of courses
and club meetings.
The children thrived under the ar
rangement. It was much more fun
for them to play together than to
take lonely airings with an adult who,
after all was said and done, certainly
was a sorry substitute for a real play
! mate.
The mothers not only won for them
selves some of that freedom from the
constant society of their children
which every mother ought to have
| both for her own sake and theirs, but
also they learned to be far more CON-
! petent In their task Of motherhood.
For the first time they were able to
| see their children with some of that
| detachment which ch~aracterizes the
! good nursery school teacher. They
were able to consult each other In
their difficulties and give each other
helpful advice.

Pellagra
Question: Mrs. r. G. H. writes: Il
would like some information about
pellagra. Can 1t be cured?"
Answer: The best dietetic treatment
| seems to be an occasional short fruit
! fast for. four or five days at intervals
of about a month apart. followed by
q we'll balanced diet as outlined in
my weekly menus. It is especially inn
portant that you obtain sufficient
protein. such as meat, in overcoming
this trouble.
Sauce for Vegetables
Question: j. }. N. asks: How can
one prepare a palatable sauce for
green peas without discarding the
juice, and without making q wrong
combination"
Answer: A palatable sauce can be
made by adding cream and butter to
the desired amount of juice. ana
thickehing with a little dextrinized,
or Drowned, flour. The juice that Is
not used should be saved for soup,
which may be made very appetizing
by the addition of milk or cream and
any finely chopped non-starchy vege-
table you may wish.
Cysts on Eyelids
Question: E. A. p. writes: please
tell me how to prevent cysts forming
on my eyelids. I have been having
them cut out, but is there not some
preventive? An examination shows
nothing wrong with the vision. I hav'
been told that q poultice made wi
milk and the bark of slippery elm,
be applied for an hour, would be help
full. Please advise me-"
Answer: The tendency toward the
formation Of cysts eems to be caused
by a condition of acidosis. This can
be overcome by the use Of q fasting
and diet regime, as outlined in my
Cleansing Diet course. which I will
be glad to send you. Local applica-
tions Of wet congresses to the eyes
for about 20 minutes each morning
and evening would be helpful. The
efficacy Of the remedy you inquire
about is probably due to its demul-
cent mucilaginous property. This
could also be obtained by various sub
stances added to the wet congresses,
such as flaxseed. Irish moss. ~glycerin,
gum arabic, or starch paste.

were at ebb tide. Ludendorff was
outsmarting Foch. Two hundred
thousand Germans had burst through
French and British lines on the
Chemin des Danes. one Of the strong

Then Cantigny fell to the Americans,
fighting their first independent at

were, meanwhile, drawing danger

JULES VERNE

One by one, the improbable romances that delighted an
earlier generation are being turned by modern science
into something very like the truth.
When Jules Verne wrote his Twenty Thousand Leagues
Under the Sea-" he proved himself one Of the most dar-
tnely imaginative writer's who ever lived. He depicted q
gigantic submarine, fitted out with. all the splendor OF a
private yacht, in which people could cruise about the
world, descend to the bottom Of the sea, explore the Sc
crets of the great deep and, In general. live like WIZARDS.
No submarine of that kind has yet been built. although
the giant cruising submarines launched since the war by
the British and American navies do not fall far short OF
Verne's mark. But Sir Hubert wilkins, famous polar
flyer, is now planning to duplicate the most far-fetcned
and improbable part of the whole tale.
He plans to go to the north pole by submarine.
If you have read Vernes book. you will recall that the
most exciting part of 1t dealt with the inventors trip to
the south pole. Verne assumed that there was water
instead Of land ut the south pole-water, covered with
limitess ice floes. He had his submarine dive under these
floes and gain the pole, where no other ship could have
come within hundreds Of miles Of 1t: and his account OF
the submarines adventures on its way north, when 1t
got imprisoned beneath an iceberg and nearly became q
tomb for its crew, is one of the most thrilling things In
fiction.
Thrilling-and improbable. Even a generation that
knows what submarines did in the World war is inclined
to balk at that part Of the book
Yet that is precisely what wilkins proposes to do.
Using a specially equipped submarine. wilkins plans to
dive under the great AICUC ice AAOeS aIlu " " CNc lI"VA
pole just as Verne had his boat go to the south pole. He
is making allowances for the p~redicament of vernes
crew. too; his submarine will have Q special lock. SO that
IL It is caught under the ice q diver can 60 out and plant
explosives that will open the Ice and allow the ship to
come to the surface. 1t will also carry chemicals that can
be used to melt the ice.
The proposal looks like as risky q jaunt as a man could
well imagine. Yet wilkins, while admitting there will be
an element of danger, thinks that the trip. on the whole
will be rather less risky than trips across the Polar ocean
by plane. His submarine is now being prepared, and he
hopes to get started in July.
A very few years ago vernes book was considered just
about the most wildly improbable tale in all literature
Now its essential elements are being fulfilled in q way
that probably would have surprised Verne himself as
much as any Of his readers. The plain facts of today
eclipse the imaginative wonders Of q generation ago.

GAS POISONING

Breathing poisonous gases still
seems to be a favorite method used
by those who wish to commit suicide.
Usually. the gas from a stove or from
a gas let Is turned on and the doors
and windows stuffed with cloths to
keep 1t from escaping. In a room thus
prepared, the M attempting suicide
will find release from this life in from
thirty to sixty minutes.
Accidental deaths from this kind OF
gas will usually take much longer,
owing to the fact that a great deal OF
gas escapes through openings In the
| room, such as the cracks in the door
and windows.
In spite of all warnings, there are
many deaths each day from carbon
monoxid gas poisoning. This gas is
formed at times from the improper
| combustion Of the ordinary natural
or artificial case used in stoves.
The fumes from burning gas are
ordinarily not highly poisonous, and
only at times Is the carbon monoxid
| gas produced. A housewife who does
not have the proper vent to the cook
| ing stove or to small heating stoves is
| constantly in danger of getting q
breath Of the carbon monoxid gas at
any time. The important point to
remember is that this gas is prac-
tically odorless and is also colorless.
Any exhaust from a gasoline engine
may contain ON of this poisonous
gas.
Most deaths from carbon monoxid
gas poisoning that are reported have
| occurred in garages. The engine Is
left running while the driver is in the
| garage and If for a few seconds the
| gasoline combustion is imperfect,
enough carbon monoxid may be gen.
Grated to make the victim unconscious
almost as quickly as If he were felled
| with an ".
There is very little warning. One
| full breath of air containing this gas
may be sufficient to cause unc0n-
| seriousness. This Is because the car
bon monoxid gas combines with the
hemoglobin of the blood and destroys
| its ability to carry oxygen. Even If
| the victim is discovered and carried to
| fresh air, he may not recover, due to
| the serious blood change which has
been produced. In case Of recovery
it may take months for the blood to
be restored to its normal condition.
The air Of the city streets is being
more polluted each day with the ex-
haust gas from automobiles and al
| though these odors may not be pleas
ant, there is only a small amount of
danger from carbon monoxid due to
its rapid mixture with freshly moving
air.
The great danger lies in the closed
garage and in the heating gas de-
/ vices without the proper vents.
