HEALTH AND
DIET
BY Logan Clendening.

Many letters from readers Of
this column have asked me to
discuss the subject of mucous
CilitiS. 1t is not, however, an
easy subject to take up in this
way. Newspaper discussions of
medical matters can most
profitably take up matters
about which there is very gen.
eral scientific agreement, and
which can be utilized to pre-
vent disease or to treat by SIM
pie measures diseases which
might affect a very large pro-
portion of the population. Thus
proper diet, sanitation, ventila-
ton, the dangers of seasons,
emergency treatment, can prof
itably be discussed here.
A General Term
Mucous colitis is a general
term which covers, like charity,
multitude of sins. Hardly
any two cases are alike. Hardly
any one treatment can be ap-
piled to any two patients. Peo-
pie get angry when I advise
them to consult their own
physicians. They think such an
attitude is a conspiracy on the
part of the medical profession.
1t is conspiracy, but the con-
Spiracy is for the benefit of the
public-to keep them from in.
juring their health by trying
to treat themselves.
Mucous colitis is either a
nervous state affecting the
large bowel, or it is an infection
of the large bowel. Sometimes
it is both-an upset vegetative
nervous system, being upset by
an infection in the bowel, and
making the condition worse by
further irritation. Sometimes
1t is first nervous condition
and later an infection. Some
times it is first an infection and
secondly a nervous disease.
Sometimes the treatment must
first try to get rid of the in
lection and sometimes all ef-
forts must be concentrated on
the nervous system. Some
times the patient is best treated
by being left alone.
A Specialists Job
At any rate, the patient must
be handled in a highly individ-
ualized manner. This can only
be done by a personal physi-
clan, preferably one who knows
the patients constitution very
well. Under any circumstances
the treatment is going to be a
long one, probably a lifelong
one. The best that treatment
can expect sometimes is to
make the patient as comfort
able as possible.
These statements may not be
just what the patient wants.
but they are true and are born
of experience.

The Marry-GO-ROund
BY Helen Rowland

Don't Want Children" or "Why
1 Want a Baby; why I Left
NV Husband" or How I Got
a Husband; "Why Want to
Marry" or Why I Never Mar
ried."
All this "I-stuff" is giving
women the kick of their lives.
And, next to talking about
HERSELF, the thing that gives
a woman the keenest relish and
biggest kick is talking about
her HUSBAND. The man she
got-or the man she didn't get.
The man she loves-or the man
she hates. Oh joy!
All this mental or emotional
exhibitionism is strlctly
feminine trait. A woman just
loves to dramatize herself; and
no woman's life is complete.
until she has made a book OF
it-or set it all down in a diary
or a newspaper.
A woman is never happy,
until she has spilled her SOUL
her secrets and her emotions
out on paper; and told the
world how she suffers" or
how abused" she is, or how she
wants to be loved. Even most
of the songs that come over
the radio are feminine walls for
love or confessions OF love.
A normalminded man, on the
contrary. never wants to tell
ANYTHING. You have to draw
it out of him, with a vacuum
cleaner or a pulmotor. It Is
harder to get an admission or
a confession out of him than
to get the chewing gum out OF
the baby's hair.
A man gets thrill from the
thought that he is something
of q mystery. That there are
certain deep, dark crannies and
corners in his soul and his
mind and his emotional nature,
which nobody has ever probed
or even suspected. That he has
q "secret!"
~ That's why men have so
many Secret Societies. But did
you ever hear of a WOMAN'S
Secret Society?
II a man has no secrets In
his life, he invents a few, and
then forms society or lodge
or a. club, so that a lot Of other
men can enjoy helping him
KEEP them.
But as Gelett Burgess once
wrote), ito a woman, a secret
is like a loose tooth" Her first
impulse Is to spit 1t out. And
the secrets that every normal
woman most enjoys telling are
her OWN!
- Once she gets these all out
of her system and into a book
or a magazine. she can die

I am a girl 18 years old and

would call a love affair-not
a real one-until lately. I am

band, who says he loves me.
He is about 80 years old and
very good-looking and a wonder

is only spoofing me about "my

hard if that is the case. When
alone, he tells me he loves me,
and kisses me, but I never try
to meet him outside of his
house, where I go visiting. l
know I have no right to shim,
but no one can stop my love
for him, and, some day, I hope
to win him. F. r.
should like to show you a
letter that came to me day or
two ago from q girl who had
clandestine love affair with the
husband of a near relative. The
man "perjured himself like a
gentleman" denied everything,
and was the first to go back
on the girl when she needed
help. This affair strikes me
as unnatural and Immoral, and

character to give your aunt'S

CHAPTER 27

OR1AE 1Eh ~
What, what, in Gods name,
has prompted this death act Of
Avery's? asked Jenny. How
could this darling Of her indul-
gence, her alteration, have
shipped the cord that bound his
heart to hers, as casually as you
would snip the cord of a candy
box?
How could an off-shoot of her
own body-fiber have committed
an act so outside the dimen-
sions OF her OWL comprehen-
gionS?
Slow, smoldering conviction
became of Jenny's that Rarick
had been the stonewall before
which Avery had found life
meaningless.
Rarick had crossed him so
constantly. PasSively, rather
more than by deed or structure.
That was what made it mad
dening to her and subtle.
She had been good mother,
neither Avery nor Jannifer nor
even Rarick himself had denied
her that. Wherein had she
failed? Or had Avery failed?
Her dear. Her beautiful. She
had seen to it that his hands
were crammed unto bursting
with all her love and indulgence
could give him.

him over the small table of a
smaller-than-ever tea-room in
West Ninety-seventh Street,
where they were venturing to
meet, "you must be everything
to me now."
"You will not let me be-"
She knew what he meant.

here and there was degrading.

would begin to attract notice.

Enthusiastic Congratulations
Are in Order
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
While visiting last summer,
I met q young man who was
hoping to graduate from col
lege this year. We did not
become very intimate friends,
as I did not see him often.
However, he told me that he
had a heavy year and was
afraid he might not be able
to graduate. 1 assured him
that if he worked well he
would make his year. AS he
is to graduate this spring, I
would like to send him note
to congratulate him on his
success. If this is proper,
what should be the nature Of
my note?
IRENE.
Since you gave him such q
fine. high-hearted encourage
ment and spiritual cheers, your
letter of congratulation to him
can be an especially enthusi-
astic and congratulatory one.
Write to him as you would
talk with him about this
achievement.
On-and-Off The Street Car
Will you kindly publish the
correct way of entering and
leaving street car when with
a gentleman? Does the lady
step onto the car first?
Does the man walk ahead Of
the lady when getting off, and
does he get off first and then
help the lady off? Or does she
walk ahead and get off, and
the gentleman follow her?
GRACE.
When a woman starts to leave
a. street car, the gentleman who
is with her precedes her, both
as she goes toward the entrance,
and as she steps from the car.
He steps first from the car,
and so is in position to assist
her as she steps from the car.
AS they enter the car, he helps
her to enter, and then follows
her into the car.
