Infate Your Belly And Calm Yourself

Since no hypnotic, sedative stupe- flying or quieting medicine the in- dividual may use on his or her own responsibility is a safe remedy for insomnia, and insomnia is not a definite state or ailment in itself we present here only such advice as seems generally helpful. Any one who suffers from insomnia should first of all obtain medical advice for what ails him. Certainly sleep lessness never troubles an individ- ual who has nothing the matter.
 Lack of sleep or insufficient sleep in NOT cause of insanity. The common fallacy that it leads to in sanity is based on inaccurate ob- servation-the truth is rather that insane persons are likely to sleep too little because of their illness.
 Younger persons require more sleep than older persons. Brain workers require less sleep than per-

Let us assume that the other half work because their husbands in- comes are not sufficient for family responsibilities.
 But has MT. Campbell, or others who share his ideas, ever consider ed that married women may be hanging on to their jobs for a num- Der of private reasons?
 Are two an done-half million women working just for what an extra pay check can give them in the way of 1uxuries or a swelling bank account? Isn't it possible that a considerable number are working for the very real reasons htat some of the married women you know are working?
 Because marriage isn't enough to fill their lives. And just as men have always satisfied the need for something more, women, too, are reaching for something else.
 Or because they have excelled in some chosen work and have learned the thrill that comes from reoogniz- ed accomplishment. A thrill they are reluctant to hand over to an un- known young man.
 Or because they supported them selves so many years before mar riage that being dependent is dis tasteful rather than natural to them.
 Or even perhaps, because with so little security about them they hesitate to relinquish their places ill the economic world-for fear they may need them back again. Or be- cause with every sixth marriage ending in divorce, they are afraid to give up everything for marriage that may be the sixth"
 Or because they feel the need of proving their ability in some field that hasn't been belittled by men as consistently as housework.
 Or maybe they found jobs when they got sick and tired of having money doled out to them.
 It is entirely possible that a great many of those 2,5OO0OO women who won't starve if they give up their jobs are holding on to them for one or more of those personal rea- sons.
 Perhaps women-when they enter ed the business world-found out that a pay check also has an ego value.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
BustIes and Busters
The CreduIOuS Sex

Kindly tell whether it is injurious in any way to wear ankle straps for reducing, in the day or night or both day and night? (Mrs. L. F.)
 Answer-No more injurious than 1t would be to wear tight shoes or a tight collar or a tight hat day or night or all the time-and it will reduce just as much as a tight hat would reduce the head.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1938-05-09

sons who do honest physical work, and persons who lead sedentary existence require less sleep than persons who get plenty of exercise. A daily stint of honest muscular work is the best of all promoters of sound, restful sleep, whether the work be doing the family washing, spading the garden or painting the garage. A lot of folk who complain bitterly of the anguish of sleepless- ness deserve it, in the opinion of hardboiled rBady. If you sleep poorly you'll appreciate the philos- ophy of the observation if you try it some time. Instead of lying in bed thinking of your sins and won- dering about everythinf1 is out and take two or three miles of ox- ygen on the hoof, part of it running, and see how much better you'll sleep when you get back.
 Many persons who find it difficult to get to sleep at night have learned by practice how helpful Belly Breathing is to carry one off to pleas ant dreams. This is described in detail in the twenty-cent 50-page booklet How to Breathe"-We can't take space to give the instructions here. Belly breathing fayors natural sleep by increasing oxygenation of the body cells and by equalizing the circulation.
 Overeating or too hurried eating which is the same thing is a com- mon factor of insomnia. People who live by their wits or as parasites must restrain their hogishness about food and drink if they wish to avoid restless nights. Honest working peo- pie, especially younger people who are not overweight, should regularly have bedtime lunch or full meal. For the healthy person 1t is natural and normal to sleep after eating. For the old offender with hard ar teries it is advisable to resist that impulse to nap or snooze after a hearty meal.
 Everyone needs less sleep in sum- mer than in winter; in warm cli- mate than in a cold climate. ouAle, PCAoOllO ACAuh lACNCl lCOo than hours sleep to maintain health, vitality and good looks There is no such thing as making up for lost sleep"
 Anybody sleeps best alone. QUESTIONS & ANSWERS Bustles and Busters
 Please give me all the data you can why feather dusters should not be used in the home or office. (H. c. DeW.)
 Answer-Do the ladies in your community still wear bustles and Gibson girl rats? Dust on woodwork or furniture is comparatively harm less. Stirred up and blown about in the air it becomes more or less a men;c re to health.
