ON GUARD

1t is not dificult to save, and If you
prudently behave, and put your kopecks
down in salt, or In the wage bankers
vault, the day will come when you can
show most alluring stock Of dough. No
shining talents are required; you get
the bundle long desired by cutting out
the vain expense and showing symp-
toms of horse sense. The man who
cannot read or write is sometimes quite
wealthy wight. But when the coin is
filed away and you are rich enough to
say, Il now retire from active life. to
bask in comfort with my wife" you
have to exercise your mind, or some
disaster you will find. We're always
reading in the press grim narratives of
dire distress, concerning some poor
wintry jay whose savings all were swept
away. He met a stranger by the pump
who showed him how he was chump
to let his money, In disuSe, no proper
revenue produce. The stranger knew a
gtlded way to gain a fortune in a day;
the old man listened, to his cost, and
now his life's a bitter frost. He'd sense
enough to gain a wad, but not enough
to dodge fraud; he'd sense enough to
toe the line and put his roubles down in
brine, but not enough to see the snare
of which all prudent men beware
There are a hundred ways 70 lose the
coin for which you've strained your
thewS, for which you've spawned both
your knees, that age might find you at
your ease And every day some poor
old gent. who's saved his package, cent
by cent, goes up against some crazy
scheme, invests his savings in a dream,
and finds himself, heartsick and sore,
proceeding to the poorhouse door.

Relaxation.

In his unique studies of scientific
relaxation Dr.. Edmund Jacobson found
that even spaSrn of the -esophaguS, car

emenable to this scientific relaxation.
There is neither suggestion nor hypno-
tism in progressive relaxation. It is
rather an art which one must learn by
careful instruction and patient prac-
tice, as one learns dancing.
People who complain of lump" in
the throat or those subject to mucous
colitis, many individuals who belch ex-
cessively or suffer from "gas"-which
is often nothing but air unconsciously
swallowed-and others with one or an
other form of indigestion" may obtain
much relief from progressive relaxa-
ton. The treatment under the physi-
clans instruction. Z must be continued
many months in order to be Of lasting
benefit.
That this progressive relaxation is no
minor method is evident in some of the

mucous colitis of many years standing,

cines, diathermy had failed to give
much relief; removal of the appendix

Furnished or Unfurnished {?

If you have ever furnished a home
or apartment of any size, you have a
good idea Of the expense involved. Your
furniture and furnishings probably rep
resented stable investment.

ness mind to figure the depreciation of
such things. Calculating that the av-
erage life of your purchases is IL to is

ly cost of over $1,000. All of this as
sumeS careful use and treatment
When an apartment is rented fur
nlshed, it is customary to add the de-
probation on the furniture and fur
nishings to the rental. Few boarders
or dodgers show much regard for the
belongings OF others, with the result
that depreciation is more likely to be
figured on five-year basis.
All of this is cited because so MANY
women cannot understand why fur
nished apartments or houses should
cost one so much more than unfur-
nished ones
In some instances, the cost or rental
OF furnished apartment is q third
more than an unfinished one in the
same neighborhood or building.
This does not answer the question for
many as to which is most economical:

tons to continue daily practice at home,
just as one may improve in the piano
playing with practice at home. Pro-
greSsive relaxation requires much prac-
tice. Six months later t93 patient was
able to resume activities which had
been impossible for several years.
The first lesson in relaxation requires
that you lie comfortably on your back
on q couch or recline in a comfortable
chair, with arms at sides and legs not
crossed. Try to feel" or recognize con-
traction in some muscle group, say in
your neck, and then relax it completely.
Then another muscle group, say your
shoulders, and relax these along with
the neck. Next your frowning muscle,
say, let that go, along with shoulders
and neck. Next the muscle around your
mouth and lips; let the lips go dead,
along with brow. shoulders and neck.
Next your eyelids; let 'em droop as in
sleep, but meanwhile don't let your
mouth, brow, shoulders and neck
tighten up again.
This should become your regular
routine. all done quietly and faithfully,
several times day. After few days
you may let the chest and back muscle
go, or let go of them, leaving the breath
ing to the diaphragm unassisted.

1t is to ones advantage to present

4 sleppins massage With patter

with neck straight instead of sagging
forward, there is no place for an I'M
calmly lump of fat at the nape. It is
easy to see how a slouching posture
combined with the tendency to f1eshi-
ness, can in time obscure the lovely
lines of the neck and shoulders.
Besides correcting the two basic
causes CT an overfat neck, milady may
hasten the cure by massage and
"stringent applications It is, of
course. more convenient to have a sec
ond person give the massage, but it
IS possible to do it oneself Self-maS-
sage is not so restful, but in the present
treatment one may exercise the flabby
upper arms while massaging, thus kill
ing two birds with one stone.
The materials needed for the treat
ment are EPSON salts, two small Turk
ish towels, patter, ice, boiling water
and an astringent cream. Cleanse the
skin thoroughly to begin with. Now
dissolve eight tablespoonfuls EPSON
salts in three pints of boiling water.
Let the solution cool somewhat, but use
1T hot Fold a towel twice lengthwiSe
and dip the center into the liquid
Fold the two dry ends around the wet
center and wiring. Unfold the towel
and lay it across the shoulders. Wet
the other towel in the same way and
lay it on the nape of the neck with
the ends wrapped around to the front.
Repeat the hot applications four times.
Next comes the massage, which
should be vigorous and deep. Massage
with heavy, circular motion from the
outer sides of the shoulder blades
toward the spine and up the back of
the neck to the hairline. Massage five
minutes.
The hot towel treatment is then re-
peated, followed by a series of the same
number of cold towels. The cold So
luton in which the towels are now
noistened is made by diSsolving eight
tablespoonfuls of EPSON salts in one
pint OF boiling water; cool and add two
pints of ice water. When the last cold
compress has been removed, dry the
skin and pat on an astringent cream.
The next step is the use of patter
on shoulders and back of neck. One
may buy patters at shops selling cos
metics or, If one is ingenious, one may,
improvtse patter out of a rubber Nv
stimulate the circulation. Massage
five minutes.
Now have five more applications of
hot towels and five cold ones. Finish
with an ice rub over the last towel.
Dry the skin thoroughly.
This treatment may be simplified by
substituting hot and cold rinses with q
bath spray for the towels. Milady NAV
