VALUABLE ANIMALS

Valued by the pound, two little
chinchillas, no larger than baby squir-
rels, are the most valuable animals
in the London zoo. They were
brought from Bolivia, weigh about a
pound each, and are worth S125 each,
dead or alive. The worth Of an ele-
plant calculated on the same basis
would approximate $1,750,000. The
actual value Of an Indian elephant
is placed at $4,000 and an African at
$500.

wardrobe. They may be for
your street and sports clothes,
or they may be for beach wear.
You can buy them ready-made,. :.
of course, but it's more fun
to make them, and much more
glory to the maker. Then if
you are supremely unselfish,
you can make few things for
your friends, which will GER

Can Anything Be Done
About Epilepsy

Time was when epilepsy was
considered a hopelessly incur
able disorder and, aside from
giving the, patient a bromide
prescription and telling him to
stick to salt-free diet, practi-
cally nothing was done.
Nowadays, however, the medi-
cal profession has changed its
attitude toward epilepsy-par-
ticularly is this true Of the
nerve specialists-and every
case is considered an individual
problem and accordingly it is
often approached from a novel
point of view.
That in many cases a dis
turbance of the "endocrine
glands" is to blame is I'M
doubtedly true. It may be the
pituitary gland in the brain
that is at fault or the thyroid
in the neck, or the adrenalS
which are situated on the top
of the kidneys. An over-secret-
ing or understanding gland
throws the whole gland sys-
tenn out of balance. Therefore
the treatment with glands
usually entails thorough
study Of the entire gland struc-
ture as a whole and the feed
ing of several glands, in
amounts that vary. as treat
ment proceeds.
In all cases, also, the mental
side must be taken into ac-
count. Not only are all epi-
leptics different from other
folks so far as their emotional
makeup is concerned, but re-
pressions of various kinds, to-
gether with Embellishments in
the sex sphere, are likely to
bear important causative re-
lationships to the convulsive
seizures themselves.
In other words epilepsy is
not merely treated symptomati-
cally these days but a sincere
attempt is made to find the
cause or causes and to remove
them.
It has long been held that
the convulsion of epilsepy, as
we'll as the Inconsistencies
that is characteristic of the
disease, are merely attempts on
the part Of the body and mind
to right themselves and to re-
turn to a state of normality.
Exactly what brings the seizure
The Washington times., 1933-07-25

on Is what interests the mod
ern scientist rather than the
seizure itself.
In order to improve or cure
an epileptic disorder the earlier
IN the course of the disease
treatment is begun the better.
Frequent and rather regular
fainting spells, or dizzy attacks,
should always be held under
suspicion. And if the case be
one OF a child hope should
never be entertained that the
advent of puberty will auto
maticlly effect cure.
Treatment should, however,
be continued even in cases of
long standing. Being a chron.
ic disorder, epilepsy runs on
for years. The tendency is for
the convulsions to become more
frequent and severe and some
times much can be done
through proper treatment to
prevent this. Besides, atten-
tion should always be given to
the prevention of ultimate
mental deterioration.
The layman should be care
full, about trying out every new
treatment that is heralded as a
cure. Self-treatment of any
kind is always to be deplored.
If medical experts find epilepsy
such difficult problem surely
it is unWise for the unframed
person to experiment.
What every epileptic needs
above all is hope. Always
should he be made to feel that
some day he will get we'll.
This will help him to adjust
his life, despite his handicaps,
while at the same time it may
even benefit his condition.
DIR. Bisch's Daily Diet Hint
It is extremely unwise for q
mother to cut down the daily
amount of milk given a grow
ing child even if the child dis
likes it. The nitrogen in the
milk is needed for cell growth
in the tissues, its calcium, phos-
phorus and iron are essential
for bone growth. Besides, with
but comparatively few excep-
tions, milk is so easily d.
gested. For those who cannot
digest the fat in milk a modi-
fled form, such as diluted con-
densed milk, may be used.
