Gloufing Yourself

 The average up-to-date young mother realizes that it's largely up to her-now, while her daughter is little-whether the child grows up to be attractive and contented with her appearance.
 However, too few mothers know that the job is not done when the youngster is trained to wash her face and comb her hair prettily .. :. that, for instance, something like the way she reads the funnies may be a sizable factor in her health and beauty years hence.
 Dr. Frederick A. Woll, Columbia University expert on eyes, says that the American child's favorite fun nies-reading position - with head hanging down-is responsible for a great deal of near sightedness. That defect. may have to be cor rected by spectacles which, while no beauty bugaboo as they used to be before the glass was shaped to become the face, certainly are not invited. -
 Besides. a good keen, healthy eye is a pretty one; the characteristic of health will make up for an ab- sence of the fashionable color and contour of eye beauty; and seeing properly is one of the least-appre- ciated, really important spurs to good grooming.
 Harnessing young children so that they cannot get too close to their work or pleasure-reading has proved effective = but a little dras- tic, says Dr. Woll. He suggests that the child have large print, instead, so she will naturally hold it's away in order to be able to take in sev- eral words at a glance.
 He suggests, too, making sure that youngsters without completely developed brows and lashes wear eye-shading brims when perambu- lating or toddling in the sunshine. Candlelight, which flickers, and fire light, the red of which is irritating, should be avoided.
 And for the sake of the sight of youngsters who stand below the level of the lampshade, be sure that lights are shielded from below by white shades or opaque bulbs.

THE HYDROPHOBIA PHOBIA
 AGAIN


 AGAIN
 I have strung along with you for years in most of the things you preach (writes J. c. M) How':ver, I'll have to turn back when you keep on insisting that human be- ings do not develop hydrophobia. I've seen that statement in your column time and again.
 I believe (continues J. c. M) that you should admit the possibility of human beings developing hydro phobia. know it is, for l had a fifteen year old brother who died of the terrible disease, and there was not the slightest doubt as to the cause of his death. too was bitten by the same dog, and suf- fered years of torture because I did not know the period of incubation was just a few short weeks, and neither did the physicians who at tended us. With my family la- bored under the assumption that one might develop hydrophobia even years after being bitter by a rabid dog. I had that fear until I became a grown man and kindly physician guaranteed there was no possible danger after so long a time.
 My brother unquestionably died of hydrophobia. Every symptom and every convulsion testified to that fact. He did not froth at the mouth or bark like a dog, as some people seem to believe, but he died in posi- tive agony as a result of being bit- ten by rabid dog some three months previous.
 So T. is my belief it would be a safer gospel if you would preach the possibility of human hydropho- bia and urge the many thousands who follow your column to take i'm mediate precautions against the possibility of such situation arising.
 (Signed, J. c. M.. ...D
 I fervently wish it were as simple as that, my friend. But it isn't. The proper name of the disease is rabies pronounced ray-bi-ease. "Hydropno- bia" is not a proper name for the disease, as 1t means fear of water ana OI course tI1C h4l4AiIuA WAeSA rabies does not fear water.
 What you say of your brothers death suggests tetanus ("lockjaw"!, al ':aough the incubation period Of tetanus is usually from four or five days to three weeks after the iri- fection-that is, the first symptoms appear then, but general convul- sions follow a few days later.
 I have not said that human be- ings do not have rabies. I don't know whether rabies ever occurs in man or not. have said and I now repeat that do not believe rabies occurs in man. believe that in most cases so diagnosed the victims actually have tetanus.
 Therefore the only treatment l would take or give in case of bite or wound by an animal presumed to be rabid is immediate ordinary sur- gical disinfection of the wound and immediate injection of dose of te- tanus serum, and secoIid injection of tetanus serum five to seven days later.

Since the government has asked householders using gas for heating to be economical of this fuel so vital to the war effort, it is the bet. ter part of wisdom to check those radiator covers. enclosures, or what have you.

CIRCULATING MONEY
 AT HIGH FIGURE

Washington, Dec. g. (UP) - Money in circulation on Nov. 30 averaged SHOOT per person, the highest in history this figure from the Treasury today was almost $5 more than on Oct. 31.
 Total money in circulation Nov 30 was $l4,805, ,224,777 against $14,- 210,452,014 on Oct. 31.
 The increase in money in circu- lation is believed at the Treasury the result of three factors: 1. The great expansion in business a. a re- suit of the war; 2. Holiday shop ping; 3. Money hoarding.
 Kept at temperatures below 38 de- grees Fahrenheit, white potatoes tend to become sweet.

 Goats Milk
 Please state whether goats milk has any virtues that would make 1t as good as cows milk for infants and children? tJ. M. Fo
 Answer-It is as good as cows milk for anybody. Difficult to feed infants and invalids often thrive on it when they can't take cows milk. Nutritively there is little dif- ference between goats milk and cows milk. Goats milk is practical. ly certain to be free from tubercle bacilli, whereas cows milk frequent ly contains tubercle bacilli. Fam ilies that can have fresh milk from their own goat or goats are lucky Silly prejudice of ignorant folks keeps many from enjoying this boon.
