SECRETS OF
HEALTH
BY DIR. Louis E. Bisch-

BY DR.. Louis E. BiSch-
Quite unwittingly, of course,
parents often teach or tell their
children things that are harm
full.
It must be borne in mind
that what the child hears it
swallows whole, as it we're. The
child's reasoning faculties are
limited. Hence it accepts with
out question whatever it's elders
give out.
Only in their teens do our
boys and girls begin to think
and compare, to bring their
judgments to bear upon what
they see and hear. Therefore
to stuff the child's mind with
all sorts of queer. fantastic
bugabooS is perniciouS!
1t may temporarily be help
and aid to a parent to tell a
child that a big bear or a man
with a bag will catch him if he
doesn't behave, but such shocks
often torment a child for
months and years.
Never, no matter what the
circumstances. try to gain obe-
dience through frightening a
child.
Never tell him anything, in
fact. that has a fearful content
to it, whether that be an actual
occurrence or fairy story.
Be careful you do not forget
that yoU are dealing with an
immature mind that Is in the
process of making!
Remember also that the
child's mind is comparatively
simple, that. relatively speak
ing. there are but few ideas in
it, and that, therefore, any
thought it does have assumes
unusual size and Importance.
What the child does possess,
however, to a. much more
marked degree than an adult. is
imagination!
That is why they elaborate
and exrand everything that
enters into their stream Of
thought

THE MARRY -GO-ROUND = By
Bridge Widows

Bridge Widows
Nearly every woman can get
a lot of consolation out Of
looking at the flaws in some
other woman's husband. ..
Every woman can find an
other woman who has taken a
worse matrimonial risk than
she has. This is the popular
idea of the Christian spirit"
to thank Heaven for your
blessings. and incidentally to
feel cheered at the thought
somebody else is worse off than
you are.
The golf widow can Congratu-
late herself that she is not
poker-widow. and that golf is
a daytime game, and not an
all-night session. And the poker
widow, in turn, can take COM
fort in the fact that it is cards
and not blondes that are her
husbands weakness, and can
sympathize with that poor lit
tie woman" who is married to
the .girl-chaser in the next
apartment.
The woman, whose husband
cannot be dragged out Of the
house evenings. can rejoice
when she thinks of the woman
. whose husband has to be
dragged INTO the house most
mornings.
The wife of the attractive
dentist. whose business is to
hang tenderly over the pretty
women's shoulders all day, can
count herself lucky when she
reflects on the fate of the
woman who is married to the
fascinating doctor, who must
take the pulse of one charming
lady-in-negligee after another,
in one scented Goudoir after
another.
And you may even recall the
battered wife in the o. Henry
story. who pitied the woman up
stairs, whose husband was too
spineless or. too indifferent to
beat his spouse up occasionally,
or even to give her a black eye
as a souvenir of his love.
You see. husbands, like NOR
ais and motor cars, are all a
matter of comparison. And a
good husband" Is merely one

NOn-Euclidean Geometry
By Archibald Henderson

In the modern physics and
cosmogony of Einstein and De
Sitter. the strange geometries
unknown to Euclid have at last
come into their own.
Physicists speak glibly now
of nonsEuClidean geometry. four
dimensions, hyperspace and
other spaces. The f1ct1ons of
Nineteenth Century mathematl-
clans have become the realities
of Twentieth Century physicists
and astro-physicists.
Euclid dealt with certain fun
dannental assumptions which
were LABELED axions. An axiom
was sort of irreducible mini
mum truth. It was self-evident
so simple that it could not be
made to depend upon truth
still simpler.
Three aXioms or PROPOSE
tions stand out as fundamental
in the geometry formulated and
co-ordinated by Euclid.
First comes the famous par.
a]lel axiom" which asserts that
through a given point outside
a line one land only one) par,
allel to the line can be drawn.
This parallel to the line means
a line which will not meet the
