SENSE AND NONSENSE ABOUT
NIGHTMARES

Incubus, DR.. Webster informs u,
was an evil spirit that lay on persons
in their sleep. A good enough de-
scription Of nightmare.
The first delusion we must dispel
is that nightmare Is due to "indtges-
tion." Briefly, I assert it Is no more
dependent on disturbance of digestion
than it is on shallow breathing Or
sluggish circulation, and there Is UNI
doubtedly more scientific evidence on
my side Of the argument than there
is on the other. In most instances OF
nightmare there IS precious little rea-
son to suspect anything abnormal
about the digestion. On the other
hand, the great majority OF persons
who suffer from one or another ALL
ment of the digestive organs never
have nightmare. indigestion" which,
after all, is q meaningless term, APP
pears to be an abb for people who
dislike to confess less conventional
sins.
Incubus, sleep talking and sleep
walking are all of the same general
nature, and there is only an arbitrary
borderline between these disturbances
Of sleep and petit NAL epileptic spells.
Epilepsy may be characterized by Pc
riodic fits or commissions followed BY
Inconsistencies or q StuporouS or
dazed state, these seizures being called
grand NAL. Or the subject may have
mere lapses of consciousness lasting
from a few moments to hours or days,
without any commissions, but just odd
and inexplicable conduct or IN some
instances sudden freezing" In the
position the subject happens to be In
when the seizure comes, and on re-
gaining consciousness the victim has
no recollection whatsoever OF what
has occurred during the seizure. This
type Of epilepsy is called petit NAL.
Readers will please believe I mem
ton epilepsy, not because I know
ANYTHING about it or its treatment
that is not better understood by any
real doctor, but because hope to dis
pei some of the popular prejudice
about epilepsy. You know, It smooths
down some Of the snobbery and mean
ness in us all when we find that these
much misunderstood troubles. epilepsy,
insanity. cancer, congenital defects.
may occur in any family, even our
own, in fact are bound to occur In
every family now and then.
who shall say where to draw the
line between nightmare and frank
petit NAL?
sleep-walking Is ordinarily a mild
disturbance and it ceases Spontane-
ously after q while. But in some
cases Of psychic epilepsy or petit NAL
the victims have travelled far, even
crossing the ocean and visiting for
eign country, during the lapse. AZ
ter the spell Is over they can recall
nothing Of the events that occurred
while the spell was on. I know Of no
particular case, but believe tho VIC

any conceivable reason, and have no

Economy Victory
Despite opposition inconceivable to
the voters Of the nation, President
Roosevelt's economy measures tri-
umphed. Fortunately no clique or bloc
in either house any longer holds q
balance Of power. Roosevelt for the
moment has the congress and the
people back Of him.
American Legion posts in great
number as well as the commander Of
that organization support Presi-
dent Roosevelt in his efforts to weed
out graft In the handling Of veteran
aid and In the much.abused system
Of veteran disqualification.
No veteran who has suffered from
the war or his dependents will be in
tured by the economy measure. Pres
ident Roosevelt. through his veterans
bureau, is to safeguard the interests
Of every worthy pensioner.
It is Of general knowledge that the
pension department has been imposed
upon. There are thousands Of cases
in which considerable compensation
has been allowed which are without
merit.

case Of . man drawing disability al

In this hour, when the credit Of the
nation IS at stake. the congress must
trust the president to do the job OF
balancing the budget. It IS no time
to play politics.

The Spirit Rises

Recent momentOuS events in our at.

America. It was something for which
Herbert Hoover strove nightly but he
lacked the magic formula.
All Of us viii recall the appeals to
unite in war on depression In much
the same spirit that the nation joined
in the effort to win the war. But
these pleas brought no action. Amer
ica sat apathetic while It's fortunes
sank lower and lower.
Then came the banking crisis COIN
cldent with the Roosevelt Inaugural
ton and the vigorous action by the
new executive to rid the country Of
the canker Of fear which we can now
admit was , part Of its psychology.
The result has been magic. We

Don't hold up your hands in horror

When the edible to be reheated Is
liquid, such as soups and sauces, they
should be heated on top of the range,

distinct disadvantage in handling pans

String beans are as good When re-

butter. Keep we'll covered all the time.
Mashed potato Is delicious when re-

Biscuits can be heated in the oven
successfully to make them just like

One is to brush the tops with water,
cover the pan tight and have a moder-
ate heat. The other way Is to put the
biscuits IN a paper bag and hold the
tightly closed bag under the cold water
spigot until the paper Is thoroughly
dampened. but not wet through any

when the paper is dry the biscuits will
be ready to serve. The former way Is
better, but each Is excellent.

Uncommon Sense
Dependent Brains
BY JOHN BLAKE.

once worked on small newspaper
whose editor was often congratulated
on the timeliness and intelligence OF his
editorials.
noticed that he wrote mostly about
happenings in Washington and New
York and for a long time I wondered
why.
It seemed to me that a newspaper
published in Western community
ought to devote most of its space to
the community and to the region In
general.
But, because the leading articles were
always informative, decided that my
employer must know what he was about
and must have made a deep study OF
the country in general.
Then one day there was terrific
snowstorm in the Middle West. which
tied up all the railroad trains for
almost week.
The mail did not come through, Of
course, and my boss, having no far
away editors to depend on for his in
telligence. had to write his pieces out
of his own head.
For two or three days he would come
in and sit down at his desk, scratch
his head vainly for ideas and then walk
over to an encyclopedia on shelf near
him.
After porting over this volume for q
time he would take up his pen and
write a couple Of columns.
They contained authentic informa-
ton, but it was pretty stale informa-
ton and at the end of the week the
subscribers began to complain.
The trouble with this boss of mine
was that he was mental dependent
Without the help of other editors. he
could find nothing about which to
write
But, give him a sheaf of newspapers
which did contain ably written articles
and he did extremely well, even sue
ceeding in concealing very artfully the
sources of his information.
IT. after looking yourself over, you
discover you are becoming mental
dependent-which means that you must
get some one else to do your thinking
for you-it will be worth your while to
snap out Of it."
Your mind will not grow without
exercise any more than will your
muscles. Better be what heaven has
made you than try to be an imitation
of another man.

borers, and only the trees growing on
the mountainous parts of their natural
range are free from them. In Europe
the trees are almost borer free.
The wood of the locust tree Is very
strong, because crystals, known as rhap-
hides, form in the wood cells. These
hard mineral deposits are ruinous to
saws and knives. Locust lumber Is in
great demand for making mill cogs,
posts, ties. wagon hubs, spoke and tree
nails. The bark is said to have valu-
able tonic properties.
In its youth, the tree Is charming
little shrub and even when it Is grown,
is shapely. Il Is in old ago that the
tree is so forlorn looking and in Winter
when the long brown pods rattle in the
wind like SO many bones. On q dark
night, this tree is mumbling and groan-
ing as the wind breaks its brittle
branches, and shakes the loose seeds In
their leathery jackets. Until late
Spring the old trees and the young
ones, too. seem to have decided not
to wake up. Over night the trees will
be covered with silvery green leaves.
The ugliness is forgotten as the bare
black limbs are clothed with gay little
dancing leaves. Then appears q cloud Of
soft pinkish and white blossoms. The
tree Is a bower Of dainty flowers and
the air Is heavy with their perfume.
Few trees In the world are 50 lovely
at this time or so fragrant. The air
Is filled with joyous nectar seekers.
The buzz above the trees is like the
distant boom of the breakers. Dark
ness only prevents the eager workers
collecting the much-sought nectar and
honey, for locust honey Is especially
sweet.
After the bees visit, the flower gets
busy to develop her seed children.
Among the green leaves the pods are
unnoticed In early Fall the leaves
turn yellow and flutter to the ground at
the slightest provocation. The brown
pods are now seen and the sharp
prickles which climb all along the
branches These sharp pins are not
thorns; they are like the prickles on
the gooseberry and raspberry bushes.
As the tree grows older, the pins are
sharper and prevent any close contact
with the twigs or branches.
The tree Is not suitable for lawn,
as the roots send up suckers, and the
leaves come too late and leave too soon
It Is . tree to be used as . hedge and
not . neighborly one. When closely
planted and trimmed, man q beast
cannot get through.
