 But the whistle sounded again, so lost and lonely that Dr. Planish fell back into his habitual doubt of himself, anG his face frightened with anxiety and compromise. He felt now. at 50, that though he might follow the path of notoriety for another quarter century, he would never recover from his mountain sickness.
 Are you awake? Will you get me a glass Of Water?" said his faithful wife.

THE POWER OF MEMORY

Anoxia, oxygen deficiency. insuf- ficient oxygen supply to the func- tioning cells of the bodily organs and tissues. is the most frequent immediate causes of impairment of the power of memory.
 Anoxia occurs in various circum- stances. It is the explanation for the unpleasant symptoms of moun- tain sickness, air sickness, the nausea, vomiting headache, some times diarrhea and always great de- precision that one is likely to suffer some hours or maybe the day after one has arrived at the high alti- tude.
 Anoxia is the explanation for the symptoms of carbon monoxide gaS- sing or exposure to air slightly pol luted with carbon monoXide from any source.
 These are well known scientific facts.
 Excluding altogether the familiar instances of failing memory in grave or prolonged illness and in advancing senile decline, the direct cause of a noticeable decline in the power of memory in most cases among people who are not serious ly ill is in my opinion anoXia.
 We can determine by precise measurement of the blood whether a patient has anoXia from carbon monoXide. But We have no test suf- ticiently accurate to determine whether a patient has an oxygen deficit in blood or tissues from say feeble or shallow breathing or from poor circulation and failure of the blood to carry sufficient oxygen to the tissues and cells.
 So I advance the hypothesis that the bad habit of coStal or chest breathing which most of us have acquired through bad education plus the sedentary inactive life we lead most of the time, keeps us close to the borderline of anoXia or oxygen deficit and hence subject to frequent failure of memory.
 Haldane and Priestly in their book Respiration" (Yale Univer- Sity Press, '35) say:
 As the slow onset of anoxae- mia" (oXygen deficit in the blood) advances, the senses and intel lect become dulled without the person being aware of it -
 That's a fact to be remembered when dealing with a seriously sick or aging person-such patients oft en say or do odd or irrational things because their power of judg- ment is impaired as much or per haps more than their power of memory. This is difficulty that arises in the making of wills and other dispositions.
 "The power of memory is af- fected early. and is finally almost annualled. so that persons who have apparently never lost consci- ousness can nevertheless remem-
 Der nothing of what has occur
 red D.
 I believe regular practice of belly breathing as described in How tc Breathe (for copy send 25 cts. anc stamped self addressed envelope) improves the memory by improving circulation and preventing anoXia.

DEAR MARY HAWORTH: Since I write for help and not for sym pathy. I am stating the facts ob- jectively. We have been married 20 years and have three children, now in the teens. We are active in civil affairs; and my wife. espec- ially, is a great church worker. Yet our home life Is dangerously near the rocks. It has never been smooth; but of recent years it has been perilously stormy.
 My wife has quick, unreason- able temper. Trivial matters send her into tantrum. She may be sunny-tempered for an entire day then make a scene on the slightest excuse. And if guests are present it's just the same. The children and I quail before the storm; and in fact they have been humiliated so often before their young friends that they no longer invite them here. Naturally they seek compan- ionship elsewhere, which worries me.
 was warned before marriage that my wife-to-be was very dis agreebable person. knew that she had been reared in a quarrelsome home; and that her father, al- though quite religious, was most stubborn and unreasonable. But as she recognized and despised his in- consistency I felt she would be doubly careful to build peace and happiness into our home. So when she was perturbed I was patient:
 Patience came easily to me, for I loved her and felt that with my help she would outgroW her tenn pers. Alas, she has not. She has become steadily worse. OutburtS of temper and harsh talk are now the daily usual thing Nor are scenes confined to our four walls. She rails in public places. apparently unaware or unaShamed that people stand listening.
 Then she pouts, perhaps only for a day, perhaps for two weeks. Dur ing those spells, every minute of her presence is torture that no human being should have to endure more than once. l am not resent ful, only concerned for the chil- dren, hopeful that happy home life may yet be Salvaged. How can meet this problem? Have wronged my wife by taking her tirades calmly? Should I have stood up'' to her long ago? Would that be best now? Apparently she doesn't realize that her home life is quite opposite the ideals she professeS before the word.

* We, the Women
Marriage in Haste Is at Least Marriage

marriages at least picked out the mep they wanted before the for eigD girls had a chance at them and, though their marriages may not all be smooth sailing, at least they have marriages and the chance to make go of them.
 Mother nature is often a more practical guide than an army of ex- perts. And it looks as though she knew what she was doing when she talked down the advice givers in that matter of nasty war marriages. A MATTER OF MOODS
 For the men who were in mar rying mood apparently married whether they could get American girls or not. If they didn't find a wife before they sailed, they found one soon after.
 Even though nasty war mar riage between two young Americans might not be an ideal set-up for a lasting union, still it has fewer strikes against it than a marriage between persons of different coun- tries.
 And the servicemen the American girls grabbed of aren't among that 100000 who are lost to American womanhood.

poets of their formative experiences, but rather sank below them-back to the infantile consolation of shrieking rages, of spoiled-brat tan- trums, when pinpricked by life Thus, it seems to me your wife's psychological salvation as an adult hung in the balance at marriage and that husband who was in- deed a peace loving man, in the sense that he positively required peaceful relationships in peaceful surroundings and masterfully re- fused to settle for less in marriage, might have forced her growth by using righteous wrath to strongly finish every fight she started.
 By now she is as much the vic- tim of her hysteria habit as any of you; and also hardly aware any longer that she is despicably diff ferent from civilized persons - as her tantrums before guests and in public indicate. So l don't know what the results would be if she were figuratively taken over some OONJ O0b lily oNtNACC Ill., AOOOP supporting her pious pretense that home life is lovely Quit the hush hush attitude toward her deviltry. The next time she makes a scene, pick up your hat, go to the door, turn and below: I'm going to talk to your preacher about this. And maybe also a doctor and a lawyer. I've had enough. And you're mak- ing trampS of your children, of course They'd rather live on the streets than here. Or had you mo- ticed?" Then go to the preacher; and don't return until you've barred the whole story. M. H.

SHREWS NEED SLAPPING DOWN |,

DEAR A. J.: In Shakespeares play, ''The Tanning of the Shrev, ," the badgered bridegroom finally turns on his virago wife, to give her such competition on the bull rozing front that she becomes a lamblike spouse in Self-defense and finds herself much happier for it.. He also. As you know, Shakespeare wrote from practically limitless in- hlght Into human nature, and his dramatic device for suduing a bully in petticoats, while comically un- folded, doubtless also would work in everyday life, if used in time.
 In my opinion, you should have squared of to your wife years ago: certainly not later than when she began soaring the children with her lnfantile rampages. Your loving pa tlence with her ceased to have vir- tue-oecame, instead, the coWardly appeasement policy that always hangs itself, as you have found when it left them orphaned of stern righteous protection in the storm.
 Her tyrant behavior, like her fathers before her, is not so much inborn as it is acquired and self indulged cussedness. No doubt he. like she, cut his teeth on a bad example supplied by elders, whose fierce outbursts when tired or vexed filled covering intimates with equally fierce resentment, carefully hidden. Hence each in turn, when graduated from youthful underdog status began taking the hide of other folks who would stand for it.
 Which means, of course, that they made no rational, sincere organized effort to rise above the Wrost as-

 West, however, made a beauti- ful safety play. After winning the queen of clubs finesse, a small club was led, and now South was help less. He trumped with the ten ot spades. cashed the king of diamonds and king of hearts. But regardless of what he did then, declarer still had two entries into dummy, one in which to establish the club suit and the other to get in to dummy to cash the suit.
 If West had not pulled any trumps, but led diamonds imme- diately, five-odd might have been made.
