Your Baby's Health
Patience And Persistence Required
 To Free Baby Of Bed-Wetting Habit

Sometimes a child of three years may wet his clothes during the day, because he is too interested in play and fails to go to the bath room. Little is to be gained by punishing such a child. It is much better to instruct him intelligently and to praise him for keeping dry.
 Tn training her child, mother should consider the following points:
 1-Do not give him any water, milk, or other fluid to drink after 5 D. m.. See that the baby drinks water freely during the day.
 Eff the child complains of thirst at bedtime, give him a piece of orange or apple.
 3-Pick up the child at 10 o'clock every night. Wake him thoroughly and have him care for himself just as he does during the day.
 4-Protect the bed well, but do not put on diapers at night after the baby has begun to go without them during the day.
 5-Take the baby up just as soon as he wakes. Many children wet the bed a few minutes after waking in the morning.
 6-In preparing dry suppers, omit milk for drinking or for use on cereals or buildings, and water or cocoa for drinking. Use milk when possible in cooking foods. Breads and cereals of whole grain are preferable.
 Sometimes it is necessary to take the baby up q second time during the night. If so. the mother should notice the time at which the baby vets the bed and awaken him Just before. Then the period between the first awakening and the second may bg gradually heightened.

WOMAN,S REALM [,
GIOritying Yourself
By Alicia Hart
(NEA Service Staff Wrlter)

(NEA Service StafR Writer)
 The next time you lind yourself annoyed with simple makeup, sham- poo and exercise routines, think about the women you know who have solved unusually dinacult beauty problems without spending Q fortune or boring their friends with tales of woe.
 For instance, when you are sin- ply furious because you have to exercise to keep trim, think about the girl who had to devote three years of her fife to the business of gaining weight. She haw Q doctor and she followed his advice.
 She hated to swim, but she joined an inexpensive club and went swim ming almost every day. To meet this expense, she had to wash her own hair and manicure her own nails instead of going to a beauty shop.
 she detested rich food, but she forced herself to eat. She took all the tonics the physician prescribed. She slept ten hours every night. At the end of three years, she had gained twenty pounds of hard, firm flesh and attained Q lovely figure.
 Another girl for years was mis-, erable because of very large, un- usually rough red hands. Finally, she stopped worrying and did some plotting and planning. She found Q fine manicurist who knew how to groom hands and wrists as well as nails.
 Daily Exercises Helped
 She started doing special wrist, arm and finger exercises and mas- saging her hands every night with rich cream. Once Q week, she cov- cred them with warm olive oil and wore cotton gloves all night. She practiced using her hands more gracefully. Today, the yare quite lovely.
 A college girl who was born with large purple birthmark on one cheek found Q way to hide 1t. She discovered Q special foundation that could be blended satisfactorily. Then she changed her makeup scheme.
 Now she puts lavish coat of powder over the film, uses plenty of rouge on her cheekbones and @ good deal of eye makeup. She looks distinctly made up, of course, but since 1t took so much powder to

 New York, May 16.-Of all the women who are mentioned as possl- ble mattresses of the White House after the next presidential election, Mrs. William E. BOrah, except for those who have already occupied the post, probably best knows its problems and pleasure, its perpIex- ities and privileges. For Mrs. BOrah has been observing the Washington scene and First Ladies in action for twenty eight years as U. s. sena- tors wife.
 "It is difficult at best" Mrs. Borah told me, great seriousness in her eyes, land Mrs. Roosevelt has been 50 amazing in the White House that think any woman who follows her will have an un- usually hard task.
 Not but that Mrs. Borah herself has had plenty of practice in meeting diplomatic and official emergencies. The wife of the ranking U. s. senator has plenty of those-and lots of hard work, too.

THE TONGUE IN AsPHYxIA

THE TONGUE IN AsPHYXIA
 In nearly all possible ways of dy- ing, when breathing and circulation are failing, the terminal state, says Prof. Yandell Henderson, is one of asphyxia.
 Curiously enough, the term as- phyxia means absence of pulse, for the ancients had no idea of circula- ton of blood (until Harvey discov- cred the circulation about the time tho Pilgrims landed at Plymouth Rock). To us asphyxia means suffo- cation or deprivation of oxygen; to Professor Henderson 1t means fail- ure of the cells of the body to get oxygen they must have. He says: "No one should ever be allowed for any time to be at all cyanotic". Cyanotic means blue, that is the dark bluish or purplish color of the skin and the mucous membranes from deficient oxygenation.
 In various states of illness or in- jury where the patient is nearly or quite unconscious and lying on the back the breathing may become la bored and noisy, stertorous, snoring. This is not the "death rattle, which is rather @ gurgling due to the accumulation of mucus in the breathing passages. It is produced by relaxation of the tongue and the dropping back of the tongue. As soon as the patient is turned upon one side or semi-prone, the tongue falls forward again and the breath- ing becomes easier and less noisy.
 The only reason why we do not all die in our sleep, at least those of us who sleep gupine (fiat on the bach) is that we waken before we asphyxiate. We're asleep. but not comatose. As soon as the tongue drops back over the opening to the breathing passage and the supply of oxygen is restricted, something arouses us, we waken and bring the tongue back to its proper place. The Chevalier Jacksons believe that many instances in which death is attributed to heart failure in alco- holism are really due to asphyxia from this cause. Likewise, no doubt, in cases of poisoning by other nar- cotics. The Jacksons refer to this as the "death zone" and the action of the tongue as the "lingual check valve. The pharynx is kind of funnel, and the relaxed tongue a kind of flapper like the fiapper of a check valve.
 In all cases where artificial res- piration is necessary 1t is vitally im- portant to remember the lingual check valve, and see that the tongue is drawn forward and held forward.
 In the prone-pressure method the tongue tends to remain in proper position, from the force of gravity. But if it happens to have dropped back 1t may be held there by suc- ton, though it does not prevent forcing air out of the lungs.
 An old method of artificial res- piration Oaborde's) consisted of grasping the tongue with thumb and foreiinger or with special for- ceps and making rhythmic traction upon 1t. The traction probably stimulates respiration, but the chief value of the method is that 1t elim- mates the ligual check valve death | zone.
 This check valve action of the tongue may be @ factor of atelec- tasis (coppalse) of the lung in some cases where prolonged anesthesia is required It has made death cer- tain in eases where pulmotoT or lungm0tor tpressurcl methods have been used because Of ignorance Of the safer method of resuscltatlon.

 That, at least, is one duty of which the presidents wife is relieved. But there arc plenty of chores to make up for being let off that one." .,...
 Born to Politics
 One thing sure, no political dee mand could surprise Mrs. Borah. She was born, as she says, into politics. She even met and fell in love with her husband when he was making speech to further the candidacy of her father, Will liam J. Mcconnell, for governor of Idaho. The senator has held public office continuously since their marriage.
 We came to Washington when Theodore Roosevelt was in the White House." Mrs. Borah recall- cd, her blue eyes misty with mem- ories, her mind obviously far away from the room in which we sat--her Oriental drawing room with its rare Chinese lacquer and jade and embroideries.
 q tshall never forget my first invitation to the White House. It came ten days after our arrival and I found 1t just the other day when I was oyerhauling an old mahogany desk full of keepsakes of the years here. The card was delivered by special messenger in livery and was so impressive with its seal that at first I held it in my hands and thought I was dreaming"
 Idaho Students Visit Often
 Tn spite of the demands on her time, Mrs. Borah has no social secretary and her entertaining is, she says, of the simplest-a few people at dinner or luncheon. Her apartment, done throughout in Chinese hangings, furniture and ornaments collected through the years, has several spare bedrooms in which on weekends are usually to be found boys and girls from back home who are attending col- lege or working in the east and who might be h0mesick.
 Her greatest interest in life is the work she has don since the war for veterans at St. Elizabeth's hospital for mental cases. Soon after the Armistice, a mother in Idaho wrote Mrs. Borah pathetic letter about her boy who was re- ported lost. The mother would not give up hope and asked the sena- tors wife to help find the missing youth. Mrs. Borah made the rounds of the hospitals and discovered the boy, who afterwards got well and was sent home. What she saw and heaiA in her search aroused her sympathy, PSe ever since she has adopted for her own many of the shell and nerve-shocked survivors of the World War. She visits them

She doesn't say much on those occasions, but he seems to find afterwards that his mind is clearer on points that have per- plexed him.

 If there is one point more than any other that gives a new mother concern, 1t is the training of the child in proper habits of excretion.
 Most babies learn control dur ing the first two years of life; others within six months. If baby fails to learn by the end of the third year, or if baby once properly trained relapses into infantile habits, he should have special medical study, and perhaps also psychologi- cal examination, to find out just what is wrong.
 Bed wetting is one of the habits of early chilhood that is most difficult to control.
 While the baby is very young, the act of releasing fluid from the body is not controlled by center in the brain, but is an automatic performance in which only the spinal cord takes part. Gradually the brain becomes involved, so that the child is able to learn con- trol while he is awake. Later, this control can be extended to cover the hours when the baby is asleep.
 There are many causes for per- sistent bed wetting.. They include nervousness. infections. poor nutri- tion, infiammations, and other phy- sical defects.
 When a child that consistently vets the bed is brought to a doc- tor. the latter first makes a com plete physical examination to de- termime whether the child is yayslcally sound fin all respects. Every ono Of the tissues may be concerned in developing condi- tons leading to bed wetting.
