PREVENTING SCURvY

PREVENTING SCURVY
Today it is the general custom
among well informed people to
feed every infant whether breast
fed, bottle-fed or BOTH an adequate
daily ration of any fresh fruit or
vegetable juice, mixed in the bottle

peach, apple, cherry, pear, orange,
lemon, lime, grapefruit, turnip, cab
bage potato juice freshly expressed
from the raw fruit or vegetable and
strained through muslin for the in
FAINT less than a few months old. Or
canned tomato or tomato Juice re-
tains less vitamin G than does that
canned by the vacuum process used
by commercial Gamers. How much
such Juice is necessary to prevent
scurvy? Say an average of an ounce
or two daily. At the beginning OF
course only a half teaspoonful or SO
is enough for the infant a month
old the daily quantity should
be increased, say doubled, month by
month or more frequently as the in
FAINT grows older. A fair health pro-
noting daily ration for child a few
years of age is four to eight ounces
(one-half glassful to glassfuD,
and the mature adult requires rath-
er less than the growing child.
Before outspoken scurvy occurs,

pie today. Vitamin c is one reason.

When you feel sick it may be be-

Spices are important in your linn

palatability to some of the palmer
foods. Although they may not be
high in nutritional value, they are
valuable as appetite encouragers,
and therefore should be regarded as
essential even in the moderate cost

On budget for a family Of 4 for
around $12.25 a week, allow about
so cents for spices and other food
accessories each week. But remem-

Irish MOSS Tea

Irish Moss Blanc-Mange or New
England Seamless Pudding. Would
Irish Moss have the same effect If
taken stepped as a tea? My father
used to drink such tea for bronchial
cough and it seemed to give him
much relief.
(Mrs. n. 4. Al
Answer-Yes. Let the moss stand
in cold water for ten minutes be-
fore heating, when making the tea.
It is both f1utritive and demulcent
and often helps to relieve bronchial
irritation. No dose need be speci-
fied-just drink the tea freely or eat
the Irish Moss straight or made into
pudding.

The sensibly beauty minded wo-
man. who has decided to give some
Thought to improving her hair, fig
ure and general grooming, is deter
mined to cultivate an alive quality
which her voice now lacks.
She has resolved to stop letting
her voice drop Unexpectedly N
the middle Of a sentence, thereby
giving the impression that she Is
q tired person or that she simply
cannot concentrate on what she Is
saving. She practices speaking
yibrantly although softly SO that
others have no diff1culty hearing
what she has to say. She is &C
curing the good habit of taking
a deep breath before she speaks
and of pausing to breathe again
between sentences.
She has decided also that she
simply isn't going to let her voice
give a false impression. She is not
going to let it make her appear to
be harassed or confused when she
is neither. She is not going to let
it give the impression that she is in
a bad humor when she definitely Is
not.
In other words, she is learning
voice control, from every angle.
KEEP JAW AND
TONGUE RELAXED
The first step toward better con-
troll of your voice is to learn to
keep lower jaw and tongue relaxed.
Swing your jaw back, and forth,
then close your mouth gently, plac-
ing tip of tongue against lower teeth
instead of against the roof Of your
mouth. Now speak. And see how
much pleasanter your voice sounds
and how much easier it is to con-
troll 1t.
THE next step has to do with
deep breathing. Shallow breathing
makes for nasal, thin voice tones.
When you breathe correctly, your
diaphragm will contract and ex-
pand. Shoulders will not move up
and down.
Your posture, too, has much to
do with the quality of your voice.
The woman who stands erect with
stomach in, chest high, head up
and backbone in as straight a line
as possible, is more likely to have
a lovely speaking voice than one
who slIlmps with chest caved in
and shoulders hunched forward.
