instantaneous long distance tele-
phone calls had been swallowed by
war priorities. The interval OF
waiting gave her time to get still
more angry, to i'll her mind with
what she was going to say TO him.
. Also, it gave her The time to get
better acquainted with her lavish
apartment.
There were no tourist-style fur
nishings. no mats. tin lamps, gaw-

stead, there were valuable pieces Of
carved furniture, massive and an
Gent, that somehow workeu in ad-
mirably with the brand new white
plaster walls, and the light wood
work. There were two good paint
ings by some Mexican artist,
wood-caryed Madonna, a handsome
gold-framed mirror, some pieces Of
Bohemian glass. That was the liv-
ing room. The other rooms were
proportionately beautiful.

the onset Of the-well to avoid
saying anything so invidious as
middle aged or declining-let US
say the onset of the ph,losophic
era Of life is the period Of dust
ment required at the first instant
Of getting up in the morning.
Just a little dizziness, the mer-
est suggestion Of the necessity Of
taking a couple Of deep breaths,

couple of times.
There is nothing alarming about
this--lt is just gray hairs in the
adjustment, wrinkles in the rising
shift. It is one OF the earliest and
most delicate signs that the ar
teries are no longer as timber as
an eel gliding through a pool Of
sl.
Reeumbent Position
The recumbent position - uoo
bless 1t; am certain Nature in
tended US TO be recumbent, or at
least on all fours-the recumbent
position is ideal for the circula-
tory mechanism. 1t is obviously
easier for the heart to send blood
TO the head when the head is on
the same level, and for the blood
to get back to the heart from the
feet, than when they are three
feet down and the blood has to
struggle against gravitation.
Well. when this easy position
has been maintained six or eight
hours and suddenly the mechan-
zeal conditions are made harder,
the arteries have to reach out and
grab the blood and squeeze it on
ward, and the heart muscle has to
increase its foot-pound work very
suddenly. The young persons ar
teries can snap to attention with
pleasure and alacrity under these
circumstances, but Uncle Johns
arteries have been knocking around
the dives and sharp corners of the
world some time and you have TO
give them time. 1.
The phenomenon has been ex-
tensively studied by DR.. Starr, at
the University Of Pennsylvania,
and a test devised. the standard of
which can be applied to anyone to
make a determination Of the ad
justment Of the circulation.
The apparatus Is a table sus.
pended in such a way that the
movements impaired to the body
by the hearts recoil and the blood
impacts Of reclining subject are
transmitted to a moving drum and
recorded. In healthy young per-
sons the average circulation is
maintained on arising. In those
with heart disease, high blood
pressure and convalescents there
we're varying degrees of lack of
rapid response.
The sensation has no serious
significance except that II means
the beginning Of the gradual with
drawal Of the bounding energies
OF youth. Don't worry about it.
Regard 1t as one Of the eternally
fascinating phenomena of Nature
as natural as the lack Of the de-
sire to 90 a-roving by the light of
the moon.
