WE, THE WOMEN Spring This Dandy Dozen On His (Her)
 Mother
By RUTH MILLETT

Mothers-in Jaw have been ma ligned for so many years that just knowing she is in that relationship to young man or woman is enough to make a woman uncomfortable.
 Surveys and studies keep proving that mothers s-in-law are responsible for very little of the marital discord in the world-but the term still has unpleasant connotations. We may have to call a mother-in-law by new name to take the curse off the relationship-rechristen her mo- ther-by marriage" or some such.
 Meanwhile the woman who has the doubtful pleasure of being someone's mother-in-l might check upon herself to see if she is doing her bit to give the old joked- about relationship pleasanter meaning.
 l. Did you urge the young cou- pie to stay in the same town with you-so as to be near you-when they considered starting out in a new place?
 2. Do you live with them?
 3. If they live in the same town with you, do you make them feel that they are neglecting you If . week goes by without sight of them?
 5. If they live in distant place, do you pay them real visit" more than twice a year?
 5. Do you keep urging your daughter to come home for long visits when it would mean leaving her husband?
 6. Do you suggest ways in which

your daughter -in-law could run her house better?
 !. Do you refrain from urging the couple to have children - or more children?
 8. If you think your son-in-law is a poor business man. do you keep from ever limiting such a thing to your daughter?
 9. Do you remember that there is at least twenty years difference between generations - and no mat ter how broad-minded you think you are - your ideas are bound to be different.
 10. Do you make your child feel that you have no criticism at all of his or her choice of marriage con- panion?
 II. Do you refrain from giving your daughter -in-law advice on how to bring up her children?
 12. If the couple are getting along well-do you let them know you are proud of them both?
 If you answer No" to four of the first six questions and ives" to four of the last six you are mother-in- law who makes the jokesmiths look as silly at their product. Copyright 1888, NEA Service, Incl

 Solved now are the problems of the shower addict who has wished time and again that she could have her showers but still enjoy bath oils, water softeners and similar preparations. A new, inexpensive metal gadget which can be attached to any standard shower fixture holds bath tablet or a few bath salts and thus the water is perfumed as it leaves the shower head.
 The little container becomes part of the shower, and you sim ply insert bath tablets as needed. For those who do not have show CTS to which to attach the gadget, there portable suction cup show CT and bath spray which can be attached to the wall beside any tub. A bottle of bath tablets, in pine, lavender or gardenia odors, comes with small fixture or portable show
 er And one tablet softens and perfumes enough water for two showers. Incidentally, one of these and bottle of tablets would make a nice gift for the hostess whose summer place is equipped with salt water showers only.
 Also for the cottage by the sea where everything seems to be pretty damp most of the time, dusing powder in huge pale pink metal can is good idea. Made by an old and reliable firm, this is ideal for the traveller, the girl who likes to take dusting pow der to the beach and for any bath room in town, as well as summer places
 Any traveller you know would appreciate a double nautical kit that contains a bottle of liquid soap which fathers in salt water and large bottle of cologne both in canvas covers which pre- vent them from slipping out of wet hands at the roll of a boat. The soap is nice in fresh water as well as salt, and the cologne is sure to please anyone-whethe she travels or not.

lego" state, or self interest. Another is the society attitude" or inter- est in the world. A third is the sex interest, or continuity. There is possessiveness, too, under self, and acquisitiveneSs. Work is natu- ral complex, because it feeds ambi- ton and possession. It varies just as other things vary, although self less work must be developed through habit" We may divide and subdivide until the whole structure becomes a network of interlacing "normS."
 Usually we think we are applying an unfavorable adjective to a per- son when we say he has mental complex, but what we mean is that he has an enlarged" complex or an "abnormaW one. This is the result of experience that has interfered with healthy emotional outlet. The best way to put it is this, perhaps. The natural way for a. complex to get its experience is to generate an impulse. This means that the child or person wants to do something quite normal and natu- ral. It wants to do it very much indeed. The mind must grow by meals" of experience. The body demands food, and whets appetite. Appetite is a physical impulse or desire.
 Frustration Brings Trouble
 Maybe the little child wants to build blocks and sec if they will i stay put" He wants color and &C., ton and climbing and friends and all sorts of things. Denied every normal way of feeding his mental appetites, he won't be able to make contact between his inside impulse and his outside experience. Some things will turn then, and bend back on themselves. And, as the psychologists say, "bury themselves in the depths of the subconscious," causing peculiar behavior.
 One frustrated impulse won't do it. but a hundred defeats will, or thousand. Maybe only few, de- pending upon circumstances, and the feelings present at the time of the disappointment.
 Sometimes shock is associated with the defeat of impulse. This has the similar effect of twisting back the original impulse into the emo- tions. Also impulse may die, and there goes ambition. The terms mental twist" or "scar" come from the U turn of complex" interest, back into the mind, to seek outlet in some other way.
 When abnormal complexes be- come too marked, they get into the obsession or ph Nia or mania class. We mix our terms frequently, call ing everything complexes. Compli- cated? This isn't the half of it. NEXT: Conflicts

GANGLION OR WEEPING SINEW
 Any swelling or lump under the skin may be called ganglion, even kernel" or enlarged lymph node, but the common meaning of gang lion is weeping sineW, swelling or sac, pouch or cyst of a tendon sheath filled with thick fluid. To add to confusion, the name gang lion is the correct name for ag- gregations of nerve cells of the Sympathetis nervous system.
 Familiar situation of ganglion is the back or the front of the wrist.
 had one for twelve years, caused, I believe, by strain or sprain, not, as some readers might think, from constant pounding on the capital T" key of my typewriter, but from an unprovoked assault upon me by crank in motor boat I was in- nocently playing with, Most people with ganglion have no idea what may have caused it; in fact the cause of ganglion is something doc tors can only surmise. Perhaps a rent in a tendon sheath, or degen- eration of the tissue of joint lining (synovia) following some injury or inflammation. Ganglion occurs most frequently among people who use fingers and wrists great deal, such as typists, washerwomen, pianists, violinists, harpiSts, mandolinists and certain factory workers.
 Removal of the sac and contents by dissection, under local anesthesia, is the radical cure. This is the logical treatment in any case where ganglion interferes with occupation or career.
 A simple, homely old cure. so I have been informed, consisted of tensing the wrist and resting the arm on a padded chair arm, then striking the lump sharp blow with the back of a book. recommended the book entitled Personal Health" by Wm. Brady, M. D., for this Dur- pose when it was ill print. Now l can only suggest the use of book about midway in size between Web sters New International at $25 and Bradys "Victuals and Vite" at 9 cents. Just how hard blow to deal in this treatment never could decide-I pondered the question for six of the years had ganglion and finally gave 1t up, as the ganglion gradually disappeared without wait ing for me to make up my mind. But the underlying idea of the treat ment seems plausible, don't you think? The sharp blow ruptures the sac under the skin, and thereafter all you have to do is keep a pad

 According to Dr. Carl Bearse of Boston simple puncture of a gang lion with a large bore needle such as that used in blood transfusions is always effective.
