Preventing
Mind Ills Is
Useful Act
BIZ JAMES w. BARTON, M. d.

By JAMES w. bAkTON, M. ID.
THE CARE of mental patients is
costly to the community, because
there are more patients in the mental
hospitals than in all the other hos
pitfalls combined.
That mental patients now 60 into
these hospitals Of their own will is
one of the reasons for the great in
crease in. the number Of cases. This
is helpful, as it puts mental ailments
in the same class as physical ailments,
instead of being something Of which
the individual and his family need be
ashamed.
Another helpful point is that the
family doctor or general practitioner,
who naturally sees the patient first,
now recognizes the early signs or symp-
toms Of mental Ill health, and treat
ment Is begun before the ailment
makes the Roadway it formerly did.
Some of the causes or circumstances
that develop or bring out mental
symptoms in patients are overwork in
school or college, in business or in the
home; trouble or anxiety, inability to
adjust themselves to circumstances,
bereavement, chronic poisoning Of the
system from infected teeth, tonsils,
gall bladder, intestines; acute illness,
especially such illnesses as influenza,
and the changes that occure In youth
and at middle age in women.
DR.. Dorothy M. Tudor, London, In
the Prescriber, says: 1.-THE danger sig
mails In mental ailments are difficulty
in concentration, irritability, restless
ness, loss Of memory, lessening Of the
ability for work or achievement. De-
preston is an early sign that should
never be neglected, as it may lead to
pronounced melancholia and tiredness
Of life. In these conditions, while
prolonged treatment may be necessary,
the prognosis or outlook is hopeful"
The greatest need In getting results
Is to get relaxation and repoSe away
from home and away from the usual
routine circumstances.
Medical and nursing care, with
careful searching after any condition
of the body such as infection or physi-
cal defect which may be influencing
the mental condition, Is absolutely
necessary, If results are to be achieved.
This examination should include the
examination for organisms and the
use Of the X-ray.
Certainly If this method Is used in
cases showing these early mental
symptoms, many viii not need to
enter mental hospitals.

Hotel Menu
Is Basis for
knowledge
Dinner in Town Gives
New Inspiration to
Home Study.
BY FLORENCE LEE GANKE.


CLAIRE was having dinner down.
~ town at one of the incest hotels.
Her cousin had come to town and
wanted to take her to celebrate her
graduation. Claire felt so grown
up and grand as she went in. But
when she looked at the menu card
. She felt like a little girl. There
were so many terms on the menu
with which she was not familiar, she
! was almost afraid to order.
The next day she asked her
mother whether it wasn't possible to
find out what the dishes listed on
hotel menus really were. And right
then and there she and her mother
went over cook books and old hotel
menus her mother had collected.
She learned "Hors d'oeuvres" are
small individual servings Of cornucopias
of boiled ham with shrimp salad in
side, or halves of stuffed eggs, or small
rounds of toast dressed up with riced
egg, anchovies, caviar. "Anchovies"
are tiny fish, practically homeless or
else f1lleted and boned and rolled and
served in oil. Caviar" Is fish roe.
The best Is black and glistening.
"Bortsch" is beet soup made from
o Russian recipe and using sour
cream.
"Filet mignon" is the tenderloin
part of steak. "Truffies are q species
of underground mushrooms that are
black in color, firm in texture. They
are usually chopped or sliced and used
! as a garniSh. A dish labeled "eSpag-
mole" has hot sauce with plenty Of
red and green peppers in it. Peach
Melba" combines fresh or canned
peach, raspberry sauce, French vanilla
ice cream. A bonnie" is q frozen mix
/ ture with an ice or Sherbet on the
outside and rich cream in the inner
part of the mold. A ''macedoine" con-
sists of rather finely chopped assorted
cooked fruits.
"Crepes suzette" are wafer thin pam
cakes, rolled and dressed with a sauce
which uses butter, orange juice and
zest and little brandy or other spirits
which are ignited after the sauce is
poured over the rolled pancake.

.nEAR MISS DIX-What would you
do If the man to whom you were
engaged was forever calling your at
tention to some woman's face or figure
by fervently excIaiming, MY, what q
beautyI" 1t doesn't matter whether
it is live woman or q picture Of q
woman In a magazine, or whether he
knows the girl or not. This makes me
extremely jealous because am myself
a good-looker, with q splendid figure,
a peaches-and-cream complexion and
q face that Is Just as beautiful o. any
Of these he raves about. But he rarely
compliments me more than to tel me
look nice. am afraid this Is going
to break Up our engagement.
JEALOUS.
Answer: If you are going to take
your flance's admiration Of pretty
women that much to heart, I think
you had better break OF your engage
ment because you are likely to live
In q pea-green state ever after, and
that is no comfortable thing to hap
pen to q wife.
You are silly not to recognize that
mems admiration Of feminine
pulchritude Is generally Just an alb
stract love Of beauty, and has nothing
more personal In it than their liking
to look at any other admirable object
la A0SAACs Va AA10Ot 4aNC LlOI4CCQ LllAJ
many men who, like your fiance, al
ways turns to look at pretty woman,
and who comment most loudly on .
womans figure, or her complexion, or
her hair, themselves marry homely
women whose charms were Of the
spirit and the mind rather than the
body. 1t Is one thing to admire a
living picture and another to want to
own it. And it Is a matter of record
that beauties do not make the best
matches, or even have the greatest
number Of proposals.
And certainly If you are in the Miss
America class yourself, as you state,
you have little reason to be upset by
your sweetheart's admiration Of other
women. But any man is q fool who
ever praises another woman's good
looks to his sweetheart or wife.

to be smart, intelligent women:
but why on earth did they let
their children play all day on
the beach without either clotl
or cream protection for their
delicate bodies?
Listen to me, mothers! These
excellent sunburn creams are
for children as we'll as adults.
No child should be allowed to
play hours under the blazing
sun without protection; and
when they jump into the waves
and come out again to get
warm, they need either a wrap
thrown around them or fresh
massage with a sun cream or
lotion. Their skin is more
tender than yours, and you
know that an hour or two
under the sun is enough for
you-poSSibly too much!
But make sure that the sun
preventive that you choose is
pure. Don't let the sun bake
in a preparation that would
blemish tender skin. Many
cosmetic houses can be de-
pended upon, and some of the
old remedies sold at drugstores
are safe to use. But if you
wish to be sure, I can give
you the name of a very ex-
cellent cream that has just
come to market-one that has
been developed by research and
experiment until it reached per-
lection.
Any baby's skin-even that
of fair Shirley Temple, who
looks like peaches and cream"
would benefit by this sun
cream while enjoying the pleas
ures of seaside or farm. Rub
1t all over their bodies before
they go out into the sunshine.
Sun feverS can harm a child
for life. So don't run the risk.
