Your Psychologist
By Dr.. w. II. Young

There are many people who are
amazed at the progress they make
under psychological treatment.
Nervous headaches vanish after
three to six treatments, dizziness
and weakness respond as readily.
Tense bodies are relaxed and con-
centration improved in a very short
time. Digestive disturbances are
overcome within a month, and life
seems to take on new and happier
meaning
Nervousness cannot be treated
successfully with medicines. The
real cause of nervousness lies in
the subconscious mind. Until
treatment is aimed at the real
source, there is little or no relief.
Neurasthenia, or nerve weakness, is
caused by unknown influences in
ones subconscious mind. Treating
by subconcscious methods the nerv-
business soon vanishes together with
the trying physical symptoms
You may find relief from nerves.
and feel the freedom OF health and
cheerfulness. Two or three treat
ments will convince you. Phone

JOB AFTER MARRIAGE.
(Thdnks to Mrs. w. II. B.,
pofL1cTn

May suggest to Miss L. E. S. of
Alexandria not to work after mar
riage? I tried 1t. A woman cannot
hold two positions and do a good
job Of both. One is sacrificed and
1t is usually the home, the basis
of our American life.
1t is terrible to come home after
eight hours hard work to a dirty
house. cooking, dishwashing, mend
ing, washing, ironing, etc, that must
be done. You soon get irritable and
fussy, and, feeling as you do now,
you would soon despise your hus-
band
A home and children are plenty
to keep one busy!
In other words, why and how can
any thoughtful man expect woman
to hold down two positions when
eight short hours wear men down
completely?

M'MAHON HURLS DEFI AT RIVAL
Democratic Candidate for Senate Slav Congress
 Speaker in Bridgeport

Bridgeport, oct. ss-Brlen Mc- Mahon, Democratic candidate for United States Senator, yesterday challenged his opponent, Senator John Danaher, to defend his record of isolationisn. Mir .McMahon spoke betore the American Slav Congress at Harding High School yesterday afternoon.
 Several days ago accused Een- Ati DanAher of being an isolation- lst because Of his voting record In tho Senate" Mir. McMahon declared. "The Senator's only comeback was Q feeble complaint that I had neglect ed to give him Q definition of the word "isolationisn."
 My reply was that I thought the people of Connecticut understood exactly what an isolatlonist was, bur Cor his benefit 1 defined the word at length. Since 'hen there has been only silence from the Senator. And 70 ! assume that my definition of bolationism was the correct one.'
 MT. McMahon repeated his defln- itlon, asserting that on isolationlBt was ono who voted against every measure to Fnake America strong from the danger of attack by the gangster nations, As Senator DaTla- her had. He added that Danahcr's record was in the same class as woll-known isolationists as Nye, Reynolds, Holt, Bulow and Wheeler,
 The biggest issue before the country today is the making of the peace," Mir. McMahon said. "The people Of Connecticut have the op. pertunity, on November 2, whetl .er they Bhall send senator to Wash. angton who has been consistently against oil international coopcrat'on to stop Hitler, or to send one who win support tho program worked out by President Roosevelt and Score. tGry Hull.
 Surely, the people of Connecticut cannot support 0 man who thinks 1t it a silly question to be asked If he would vote for such measures aa LendsLeaSe, naval appropriation the ship seizure bill and the arms embargo bill If he had chance again.
 Nov Senator Danaher Is trying to make people believe that he iS for international cooperation. He has suddenly discovered that people don't like isolationists or obstruc- tionists. And they know that an ;solationlst does not reform.
 T would welcome the opportunity 70 dObate the subject of isolationIsm with Senator Danaher 30 that we could continue the discussion which we started in Norwalk two weeks ego at tho Town Hall Forum.
 However, until Senator Danaher Dpeakg up in his 0wn defense, I sm satisfied that the people of Connsc- tieut recognize him as an Isolation. bt who iS not qualified to have any part in the making of tho peace which will follow this war"
