NUTRITION AND THE NERVES
 The famous Weir Mitchell rest cure" for "neurasthenia" or "ner- vous prostration" so popular with the new-rich and the near -rich when you and I were young, Mag gie, consisted mainly of CD getting away from 1t all for a while and CD milk and egg diet. Egg yolk is even richer than milk in calcium, phosphorous and vitamin D.
 A quart of milk @ day provides the amount of calcium (lime) - approximately IS grains and of phosphorous - approximately l2 grains - required for normal nu- triton, that is, for the adult. The young growing child probably needs at least half as much more of these clements daily, that is, not less than three pints of fresh milk daily. Various dairy products serve the purpose as well or better than milk, notably cheese of any and every kind; butter; cream: buttermilk; skim milk: whey; real ice cream, custards, creamed vege- tables or soups; eggs in any way one prefers.
 Not only an adequate intake of calcium and phosphorous but also an adequate intake of sunshine vitamin D Is necessary for normal nutrition of the nervous system for vitamin D Is essential for the assimilation and utilization of these clements.
 In e general way 1t may be said that the need for vitamin D is the greater the less the individual i' exposed to direct sunshine on naked skin; for the ultraviolet rays in sunshine or skyshine (diffuse oi reflected sunligh) convert ergos- terol in the skin into viosterol (vitamin D) just as irradiation oi ergosterol, in @ special strain oi yeast rich in ergosterol, with ultra violet light of certain wavelength produces viosterol, vitamin D, for medicinal or dietetic use.
 No one with too little calcium and too little phosphorous in blood and tissues has wholesome atti- tude towards life, says one noted nutrition authority, Prof. E. V. Me- Collum. The accompanying irrita- bility, lack of agreeableness, and lack of serenity must influence the individuals behavior or conduct at home, in business, at school or in whatever walk of life.
 Trouble with most people who are victims of the weak nerves" obsession is that they are forever seeking some magic restorative in the way of a nerve medicine, ner- vine, tonic, stimulant. sedative or builder. It is therefore difficult to convince them of the wisdom of supplementing the deficient diet

 Bob begins on his arithmetic. He doesn't know whose arithme- tic it is, for the back is shrouded with . brown mantle about as inc dividual as Q monks gown. For that matter, Bob doesn't know what man wrote his history or whose assembled the material in his reader. (Shades of MT.

 The boys call him. He folds down the corner at page six, turns the book upside down, open, on the couch, where Spot finds 1t. One corner of the back is wet and ragged when Bob returns.
 Bob takes about as good care of his books as the average boy. He listens to talks in school about the care of school property and never once thinks of him. self as careless. When anything happens, 1t is not his fault. he reasons; like Spot and the arith- metic. or the day he left his spell CT on the kitchen table and Lena got butter on 1t.

from. And besides, when every other fellow treats his books like yesterdays newspaper, it's ex- pecting too much of a chap to think he's going to play particu- lar nurse, when everyone knows they are free anyway. So fig- ures Bob.
 Let's say the books are free" and don't cost the taxpayers, via the school board, one slim dime. We'll forget that the annual bill for new books and renewals is away up in the thousands of dol- lars. But what Is this devil-may- care spirit doing to our young students? And older ones, too, by the way, for the older chill dren get, the more destructive they become, according to figures in black and white.
 Poor Psychology
 Just this: 1t is the same psy- chology that prompts boy or girl to stick chewing gum on a movie seat for the next patron to ruin his clothes on. Neither chair nor book or personal" property.
 For this reason, have long la mented the lack of option for school children to buy their own books, or a set for home use, at least, when within the means of the family. The set would be theirs forever. for reference. Old books increase also in sentimental value, as the years pass. Where are the school books that used to stand on the bottom shelf. where a hand could reach them easily to settle problems in grammatical construction, a rule in bank discount, or the name of the Mexican War president? Con- demned and destroyed as unfit for us". It is like being maroon ed on a desert island without a boat to get home.

ing glum while she puts on an act of charming hostess"
 Today's hostess doesn't encourage her guests to drink too much--for she feels it is her fault, and hers alone, if the party gets out of hand
 She doesn't let talk turn to gossip LOT monopolize the conversation herself. Neither she or the host out shines the guests-no matter how easy that might be.
 You go to her house feeling that she wants you because you are YOU You never feel while you are there that she has gone to too much trouble (though she has, of course) and you leave without feeling apolo- getic for not staying longer.

 No one should be more pleased with the popularity of upswept coif- lures than the fall bride. The wed- ding guests may worry about what hats to wear with thetr own brushed up hair, but the bride her. self will find that the cluster ot curls atop her shining head en- hances the quaintly charming ef- feet of the bridal veil.
 Especially designed for high coif- lures are wells to be fastened near the back of the head just behind the cluster of curls. One designer ! puts the wreath of orange blossoms around the curls with the veil at- tached to the wreath at the back. In any case, a veil provides softness about the face and neck. So the bride who has decided that she just can't wear an upswept coiffure be- cause 1t makes her face seem too long or her jawline too prominent still can have her hair brushed up for the ceremony.
 She ought to keep the lighting effects of the church or room where the ceremony is to take place firm ly in mind when she applies make- up. + she puts on a subtle street makeup, then goes into dimly, ar- tificially lighted church, she's sure to seem too pale and wan.
 If she sits in artificial light when she puts or rouge and lipstick, she's more than likely to look too made-up in daylight. All of which may seem pretty trivial, but 1t takes no more time to do a correct make- up job than an incorrect one. And what girl doesn't want to look her best on her wedding day?
 Incidentally those in a quandary about shower gifts or a little persona al present for the bride herself might consider: a small bottle of her favorite perfume with larger bottle of toilet water in matching scent; satin lingerie cases for trav- cling and to use later on in the drawers of the new dresser; heart shaped sachet pillows for the toes of evening slippers; deluxe manicure set; a makeup kit to take along on the honeymoon.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
 Salt or Sugar?

I disagree with you about taking some salt with each drink of water in very hot weather or when one is sweating profusely. I have found that about two teaspoonfuls of su- gar to a glass of cold water is much more refreshing? (B. D. M.)
 Answer-That is all right for one who is not already overnourished Men working in extreme heat or ex- posed to intense sun had better take ten or fifteen grains of salt with every drink of water, to pre- vent heat cramps and heat exhaus- ton. A large amount of salt is ex- creted in the sweat.
