LAYING IT ON

hAxkNG AA ON
 "Those millions of poor-broken- down men and women who either inherited bodies and nerves too frail to stand up to the strain of life or else had burdens laid on them heavier than they could bear"
 There is such @ thing as nervous exhaustion, then, Mir. Wiseacre in- forms me, quotnig the foregoing re- marks from book for laymen by a physician connected with much advertised "clinic."
 Neurotics everywhere of Glass A or Glass B-will rejoice in this backing of the concept ot "neurasthenia" by such an eminent authority. It will encourage them to go on believing that their frail health and weak" nerves are in- herited from grampa or else their trouble has been "laid on them" by some one else. Anything but ac- knowledge that their health impair ments or faulty nutrition or un- diagnosed ailments are just like the ailments of people who do not pur- port to have 'weak" or exhausted" nerves or people who are intelligent enough to comprehend that so far as present knowledge of physiology goes there is no such thing as nerve energy or strength apart from or- dinary physical energy or strength which one uses every time one moves or works or plays or exer- cises.
 The same authority quoted by MT. Wiseacres got of another half- baked remark in @ contribution to a medical journal four or five years ago. He was throwing little cod water from his eminent position on the "vitamin craze. Of course he knows better now, much better, but nevertheless the statement goes to show that you can't take the opin- Ions of eminent medical authorities as seriously as MT. Wiseacre does. The observation to which l refer was as follows:
 Even the physician with very large practice" (for instance one in a well advertised clinic) twill see only Q few cases a year in which he will suspect that the symptoms are due to too great

 e. I am planning to entertain about 30 ladies at tea. I will use loose tea, not that sold in the balls or bags. How much should l pre- pare?
 A. Two-thirds of e cup of tea in five quarts of boiling water will serve thirty guests and allow for a reason able number of second cups. Steep the tea about 3 minutes, then pour 1t off the leaves.
 e. Is 1t absolutely necessary to be fond of children in order to be Q successful school teacher?
 A. Certainly that is one of the principal requisites. A teacher should not only like children, but should like them as they are and keep on liking them regardless of how trying they are. Children are very sensitive to ill-feeling on the part of their teachers and readily detect dislike, even though the teacher may be careful not to show 1t plainly. Affection for children, however, does not excuse a teacher from being firm and maintaining discipline. When this is done kind- ly 1t is much more effective.
 O. How long should a hostess wait for dinner guest who is late in arriving?
 A. One should not wait longer, than twenty minutes, unless the guest has notified the hostess of the time he will arrive. Tn that case, she can use her discretion about waiting for him or proceeding with out him, depending on the import ance of the guest and the time of his arrival.

 Now if men are going to be willing to do as much for us wo- men in return, the score will be evened up.
 And, after all, why shouldn't they? If a woman endures the torture of permanent wave machine because men like fluffy, curly hair. why shouldn't men, knowing what a weakness women have for men with thick wavy hair, go in for permanents. too? At least they could do all their beauty salons advise in an effort to hold on to what hair they have for as long as possible.

 There's one thing which of course you'll notice about this wardrobe. No wool. And, basic- ally, two daytime costumes for winter. It's my hunch that the really-smart miss, having this small allowance for clothes, would get herself 0 wool coat, by budget ing 1t for three or even four years. And she would wear last years wool things, including her older sisters or cousins.
