A LITTLE TALK ON THRIFT
BY S. w. STRAINS


10 be thrifty is to thrive-to get
ahead This may seem like a trite
statement but not so when we study
its full meaning.
TO make progress is to advance in
all respects and if we are getting
ahead in one way at the expense of
some other form of advancement we
are not thrifty. One of the most COM
mon mistakes in this respect is the
tendency upon the part of many to
thrive financially at the expense of
ones physical well being.
1t is no insignificant and common
place observation to say that good
health is any mans finest possession.
1t is particularly a valuable asset be-
cause it's preservation requires adj
herence only to a few simple rules
or common sense. Yet, once it has
been lost, it is gone forever. The
man who is trying to get ahead in
the world with the handicap of poor
health has all the odds against him
in achieving success. The loss of
money or of other material possessions
may be in time recovered but when
we lose our good health we lose an
asset which We never may be able to
recover
Not enough attention is paid to this
matter of health thrift. The average
person does not lack for guidance and
inspiration in the practices of money
thrift. We are constantly having i'm
pressed upon us the fact that we must |
get ahead financially But to get
ahead financially at the expense of |
our health, as is now the case with |
such large percentage of Americans, |
is by no means an example>of thrift |
In the race for success and wealth |
too many Of us are violating every |
law of physical well be-
ing-too many hurried meals, too
much smoking, too many long
of work without relaxation,
too much burning the candle at both
ends, too many details. too many prob
lens that bring worried days and
sleepless nights.
For those who hope for success. it
is just as necessary to keep the body
well as it is to keep ones credit
sound. There can never be true thrift
where the question of health is not
given all the attention its Importance
deserves

HINTS ON HEALTH
prepared and Furnished by the
Public Health Education
Committee of Minnesota
State Medical ASSN.

One of the wonders of the human
body is its faculty of maintaining a
uniform temperature. 1t so regulates
and harmonizes the production and
the loss of animal heat that the nor
NAL temperature of the blood is not
materially affected. This is due chief
ly to the action of the skin. These
statements were contained in a bull
letin issued recently by the State
Medical associations:
Whenever the skin is subjected to
cold temperature, the nerves of the
skin transmit the message to the CEN
trail nervous system (the heat-regulat-
ing center of the body. From there
the message is reflected to the nerves
of the blood vessels under the skin
and to the muscular fibers which con-
troll these subcutaneous blood vessels,
so that they promptly contract. In
consequence of these contractions of
the blood vessels and muscular fibers
there is a diminished blood supply
sent to the skin, and so the body con-
serves its heat.
Now, when, on the other hand, a
high temperature is felt on the skin,
there is dilation of the blood vessels
and corresponding loss of heat by
radiation and conduction from the
body surface.
If the high temperature persists
perspiration is formed to help with
the cooling of the body. Now, one of
the bad effects of perspiration pro-
is thus deprived of some of it's use
full constituents. If the body remains
hot for long time the internal organs
suffer because some of the needed
blood is taken away from them to
help cool the surface of the body.
In this way the tone and nutrition
of the stomach, lungs. heart and other
internal organs may be lowered. APP
petite suffers and digestion may be
impaired.
Again, the red corpuscles in the
blood may be decreased, and we eX-
perience languor and general emerva-
tion. The entire system, in conse-
quence, is rendered more susceptible
to some disease.
Then, with the still further con-
tinued dwelling in this over-warm
temperature, the body temperature is
no longer able to remain normal and
increases. If it rises only one degree
the individual is less resistant to dis
ease.
Body resistance to disease is derter-
mined in a large measure by the
maintenance of normal body temper-
allure and by avoiding the strain
which temperature even slightly
over 6S degrees puts upon the heat
regulating mechanism.
Another and perhaps more serious
danger to the individual from living
in too warm indoor atmosphere is |
that one is more likely to become |
chilled upon going from an overhead
ed room to cold winter outdoor air.
From these facts it is readily seen
in part why communicable diseases
are more prevalent in the winter
months. with the usual high indoor
than in the warmer sea-
sons of the year.

antiseptic wash after the cleansing and
also an astringent, both of which are
described In the article mentioned.
(2) No greasy cream should be left

Is quite necessary to use cream with
an oily base for the cleansing. Choose
O cleansing oil or, at least, something
which Is lighter than cold cream.
(3) No, this would not be the cause,
but hereafter use q light cleanser which
will penetrate deep into the pores.
There are many liquid cleansers which
are especially good for an oily COM
plexion.
(4) Vanishing cream is suitable for
your type Of skin, but before applying

Let's suppose that you have had q
very trying day, and that you have to
look quite nice and haven't very much
time in which to accomplish q miracle
Of transformation.
The first thing to do is to pull back
your hair and slather your face full Of
cold cream. Wiring piece Of old Turk
ish towel from hot water, cover the face
and neck with it. Let IL stay on till it
cools, wiring again from hot water and
repeat this six times, wiping of any
cream that may be left on the skin.
Then wiring the towel from very cold
water and hold this over the face, re-
peating three or four times. This opens
the pores, cleanses the skin, brings up
new blood to 1t, then closes the pores
and arain stimulates the skin by the
