HOT AND COLD sIrz BATHS

HUI AMI ZULU OAAA 0AAnO
! At various times in my articles
have recommended the use Of hydro
therapy or the applications Of water
In relieving pain and treating chronic
diseases. One Of the most effective
hydrotherapeutic treatments Is the
sttz bath. Only the hips and abdo-
men are immersed in the water for
this treatment A number Of differ
ent therapeutic effects may be created
by varying the temperature Of the
water or the length Of time Of the
immersion. The cold sitz bath Is
used chiefly for its tonic, strengthen
ing effects upon the muscles Of the
pelvic region and for lessening the
amount Of blood. The hot sitz bath
on the contrary. Is used for engorg-
Ing the pelvis with blood and for re-
lieving pain and softening frightened
muscles.
The cold sitz bath Is very effec-
tive In many Of the chronic disorders
such rs constipation, prolapsed organs
and long continued inflammations. It
Is also useful In overcoming hemor-
rhages from any Of the pelvic organs
The hot SITE bath Is useful in cases
Of acute indigestion, abdominal
cramps and In restoring the MEMS
trual function.
There are some special appliances
manufactured for taking sitx baths
which are sometimes installed In the
more expensive homes. However, q
sitz bath can be taken In an ordi-
nary tub. Tall people may sit side
wise with the feet over the edge and
resting on . chair, but short folks
would have to sit with the feet ele-
waited upon box or stool placed
within the tub. A comfortable rest
should also be arranged for the back.
To secure the best effect, the other
parts Of the body should not be wet,
II you wish to secure the local effect
through the pelvis.
For the hot sitz bath, the water
should be as warm as it is possible
to endure. and the bath should last
from five to ten minutes or until the
skin becomes quite pink. The feet
may be kept In the hot water at the
same time as the hips II desired. The
bath may be repeated every few
minutes II pain is severe but in this
case, 1t Is usually advisable to follow
each hot immersion with quick cold
shower.
In using the cold sitz bath, partic-
ular care must be exercised in pre-
venting general chill. The bath is
most effective after exercising. The
bathroom should be warm and all
portions Of the patients body not
under water should be well covered
with blankets or clothing. II the
patient does not react properly and
feels chilly, 1t is sometimes wise to
place the feet in hot water while the
pelvis Is seated in the cold water,
The water should be as cold as pos
sible since less time is required with
very cold water than with moderately
cold water. and the patient should
be removed when there is an inclina-
ton toward general chilliness. II the

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Always Hungry

Question: Mrs. j. w. II. writes: I
am a woman - years old and am get
ting stouter all the time. am always
hungry q few minutes after meals.
for do not eat all want for fear of
gaining. It has been suggested that
take salts and cream Of tartar every
morning. Would you advise that?"
Answer: One Of the best ways for
you to control your appetite Is to
see to it that you have plenty Of green
vegetables at every meal. Take several
dishes II necessary to FIN up" thus
avoiding the starches and proteins
which are more fat producing. II
YOU stuff on the greens you will find
that It will control your appetite and
make the remedies which you have
suggested unnecessary.
Buttermilk Fast
Question: r. j. asks: would but.
termilk be suitable on q fast, or to
use buttermink one day and then
tomato soup the next? What would
BE- the proper quantity of buttermilk
to use each day."
Answer: often prescribe the but
termilk fast and when doing so usu-
ally keep the patient limited to not
over two quarts day. A good sched-
ule to use Is to take an 8-ounce
glass Of buttermilk every two hours
until two quarts are taken. In this
way, If you take your first glass at
s o'clock In the morning you would
take your last glassful at o'clock
in the evening. It would be all right
to alternate one day with buttermilk
and the next with unthickened tomato
soup.

Question: Mrs. r. s. writes: II

CLUB WOMEN
The club woman gets her share Of
jokes just as does the Babbitt, for
reasons hard to explain, for II drgan-
ICED men had ever done as much for
civic betterment as organized women
they could we'll be proud.
Women Of the Gan Ivri League Of
Cleveland have just perfected q
scheme for Hebrew garden, the first
Of its kind in the world. Trees,
shrubs, vines and flowers commemor-
ating all contributors to Hebrew
thought, are being planted in a gar
den which artists pronounce unusu-
ally beautiful.
Gardens Of other nations are being
planned in this city and others as q
direct result.
This is only one club woman
achievement which sounds rather
worth while.
NOT JUST GOODS
Figures are constantly being
launched in an attempt to prove that
college units girls for matrimony,
that college either makes them unde-
sirable as wives In the eyes Of males,
or makes the girls themselves too
critical OF men and natrimony.
A recent survey says that more
than 48 per cent of women gradu-
ates from the University Of Wiscon-
sin In the past 20 years are un-mar-
ried. 46 per cent from Ohio state. a
per cent from Leland Stanford, and
50 on. And yet these figures do not
sound so startling when contrasted
with the marriage per cent of women
in the mass, rather than just college
women.
Fewer women in general are mar
rying these days than once did, due
to several reasons-their own ability
to make living, and the greater
difficulty Of getting husbands.

YOUR
CHILDREN


Not long ago I read an article by
q woman who had lived for many
years in Europe.
She and her husband dwelt in
many lands and their three small
children went to schools of many
nations and learned to speak several
languages.
They grew up absolutely unpreju-
diced, with open friendly minds UNI
biased against any race or religion.
When they returned to America and
went into American schools they
astonished everyone by their ability
to mix. And this freedom from pre-
JUDGE against race, nationality, and
religion extended still further into the
field of liberty. They had learned
to respect absolutely other peoples
rights to do as they choose without
criticism.
Now we can't take our children ia
Europe, most Of Us. but we can teach
them almost the same fair minded
ness at home. Or rather It works the
other way round. It is In the home
that children pick up most Of their
prejudices. They drink 1t with their
milk.
A Child's Attitude
They usually look down on q little
boy or girl because his parents speak
different language or go to diff
ferent church-or because they are
lust different"
We can talk all we like about
America being for Americans; It
sounds splendid, but we are only talk
ing against time. Perhaps America
is for Americans but the world Is for
everybody and boundaries will 60
