NEVER MIND YOUR BLOOD
 PRESSURE

NEVER MIND YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE
 CVD, Cancer and Cri are the three leading makers of vital sta- tistics.
 In the doctors bible" Osler says that longevity is a vascular ques- tion. Vascular pertains to the blood vessels. Every one has heard the old axiom, that a man is as old as his arteries. According to that fatalistic view in the older path ology, how long you may expect to live depends on the quality of the material your immediate and remote ancestors put into your ar teries. I shall not know positively about this until I get along to- ward ninety, but up to now I am convinced that longevity depends rather on the way you live. It is a question of hygiene. Not merely knowledge of hygiene, though that is important, but the knowing how to apply the knowledge in your own life despite the many obstacles and difficulties that conspire to defeat your best endeavors.
 Cardiovascular disease or de- generation (CVD) is the general term physicians apply to the pre- mature heart-artery deterioration or slow failure of circulation that accounts for physical or nervous" breakdown at or before middle age. It is the conventional practice to attribute this incapacitation to the strenuous life" heavy business re- responsibilities, the high tension of American life, and all that sort of hooey. As much sense in that as there is in referring to booze as "stimulants;" no sober physician or pharmacologist today will attempt to argue that alcohol is a stimulant or in any way necessary or good for you.
 Indulgence in alcoholic bever- ages, especially the vicious custom of drinking before dinner, and the insidious habit of taking a drink as pick-me-up or bracer when one feels tired or weary in the middle of the days work or when the stomach is empty and perhaps the blood sugar is low, is the actual fac- tor of damage to the arteries, heart, liver, kidneys which people sd readily ascribe to nervous ten- tion." The relief such drinker gets from the pick-me-up is spurious the alcohol merely dulls or be- numbs consciousness of fatigue, depression or irritability. Taking of any sort of food or food beverage such as ice, cream soda, milk, fruit

J -a wants. A man may say she's a grand person or a good Indian, but he'll say it to some very fem- mine girl, who'll be smart enough to agree with him.
 Of course, she must think well of herself. It she doesn't, she'll be for ever apologetic (which is fatal to romance) or much too eager to please.
 A nice smile is more important than brains. And 8 good walk more important than expensive clothes.
 Shyness is a big handicap, for men expect girl to fit right into any background-no matter how nervous they are themselves.
 Having nice voice, knowing how to pronounce the words she uses, and making her nouns and verbs agree, add more to her attractive ness than anything she can do to her face.
 She'll be more successful with men if she learns how to stand out from the crowd just enough, and not too much. It's a delicate balance that really means sophistication.
 And as final point, the girl that most men like is the one who, not too obviously, seems to like them. Copyright, 1888, NEA Service, Inc)

 A few New Years resolutions are in order, of course, but it's 8 mistake to make so many that you'll stick to none. 4 sensible idea would be to resolve to try to correct one defi- nite defect, then, throughout the year, stick to a weekly routine for correcting 1t.
 For example, if your posture is pretty bad, how about vowing to do posture exercises for fifteen minutes at least once a week? If you keep your VOWS, your car- riage will be perfect long before January, 1940. No doubt about it.
 These Reward You
 The following routines, repeat cd several times each during the weekly fifteen-minute period saved for posture exercises, are easy to do. sure to bring results.
