Your Health
Young Women
May Have
Poor Appetite

BY HERMAN BUNDT5CE. ~
WHEN a person has a poor
appetite, naturally he is not likely
TO eat as much as he should and
a loss in weight results. The loss
in weight in such persons may be
even greater than in those who
suffer from frequent attacks Of
vomiting.
There is one type Of poor appe-
tite known as anoreXia nervosa.
A person with this condition loses
weight slowly but steadily. Ac-
cor ling TO Doctor John NJ. Berk-
man Of Rochester. Minnesota, the
behavior Of such patients is much
like that Of a spoiled child. The
condition usually occurs in young
women.
Indifference and Indecision
They are Indifferent and indie
cisiye as TO their reasons for not
eating, and apparently are uncon-
cerned about their condition. Doc
tor Berkman points out that even
though these patients do not eat
enough food 70 keep their weight
up, they seldom suffer from ane-
mia or lack Of coloring in the blood
or have any striking evidences Of
vitamin deficiency.
AnoreXia nervosa often begins
during the maturing period. BY
the time the patient reaches the
physician, the original reason for
the refusal to eat has otter been
forgotten. However, II would ap-
pear that the usual cause for the
condition is either some conflict
with the parents, some resentment
against certain things in the home
or school life, resentment against
authority, or disappointments
over school or social achievements.
Similar mental injuries are re-
sponsible for the beginning Of the
condition in older persons.
In treating anoreXla nervosa
the first step is to explain to the
patient the nature Of the disorder,
in order to get her full coopera-
ton. The diet at first contains
about the caloric or heat value Of
the diet which the patient is accus-
toned to eating. Gradually the
amount Of calories is increased.
Rich Diet
The diet is especially rich in
foods high in protein. vitamins,
and bulk. This means plenty Of
meat, milk, eggs, fruits, vegetables
and whole-grain cereals. The pa
tent is encouraged and urged to
eat everything offered, even though
it may seem to cause some dis
comfort in the abdomen.
When the quantity of food esti-
mated as sufficient, is tolerated by
the patient, no further increases
are made. However, the diet is
continued until about five pounds
over the normal weight is at
tanned. Breakfast usually is the
most difficult meal. AS a rule, il is
helpful to have the patient eat
about FIVE times a day so that
smaller meals may be given.
With this type of treatment il
has been found that within about
two weeks, bodily strength in
creases; the mental state improves
and cure results.

AIR MAIL LETTER
 T0BE DROPPED AS

Those of us who still chafe at the 1944's cent airmail stamp, should feel a trifle better after hearing of Sam Pekovich, a mining operator on Hawk Inlet, who this morning received-or should have received a uniquely delivered "airmail' letter that cost somebody (either him or his lawyeD eight dollars to mail from Juneau.
 The letter, containing a note from MT Pekovich's lawyer requesting the formers return to town for import ant business, started out in the Coastal Airlines office this morning on it's first lap to the recipient-pros- pect.
 After some consultation on the finer points of how to mail let ter from the air, Joe Whiting of the AGA office and Clarence Rhode, pilot of this mornings passenger plane going to Hoonah, decided to parachute" the letter down. A pre- viously- discussed theory of tying a rock to the letter was scrapped when Rhode pointed out that rock drop ping out of the sky would descend too rapidly to be of the dramatic, and therefore, eye-catching import. Instead he borrowed a red kerchief from Whiting. wrapped the letter in gay boW-knot and with the ends Tapping for floating power" mark ed it for delivery Is flying miles out.
 Now it could be that this news of Pekovich and his letter is not of vi- tai concern to the Empires Big News fans. But to reporter it seems like an important issue Will Peko- vich get his letter or won't he? And if he doesn't who owes who a red kerchief? Besides, the possibility of setting precedent with an dollar mailing charge for 28 miles worries one.
