*1 M A G A Z I N E HOME • HEALTH P A G E FEATURES A Dread Disease Of Childhood B , HERMAN N. BUNDESEN, M.D. IN F L U E N Z A L m eningitis is a cruel disease which, for the m o st p a r t, attack s babies and young chil dren. In form e r years the disease w a s nearly alw a y s fatal and even in the rare instances where it did not kill its victim s, it crippled by causing extensive dam age to the brain. Today, if the condition is diag nosed early, life can be saved. This has been m ade possible by the use of new drugs such as the sulfona m ides and streptom y cin. E a rly Symptom s U n fortunately, the earliest s y m p toms of this dread disorder seem ; very innocent so th a t the child show's i evidence of nothing m o re d a n g e r ous than a running nose and sore throat.

W hen the m e n ingitis develops, there is some disturbance of con sciousness, ranging from drow si ness to stupor, a tem p e r a tu re v a r y ing from 100 to 104 degrees, and th e re may be some stiffness of the j neck, ai d convulsions.

The influenzal germ responsible for the condition is also found in the spinal fluid. The influenza bacillus f>r germ is not to be confused w ith ’ he influenza virus. It is the virus ’ bat causes the ordinary attack of “ f u ’’ or “g rippe.” The num b e r of w iv e i ells in the blood is also in- I>ur:ng (he early stag e s of the H.-case, the brain is seldom harm e d to any g reat extent.

W e chose three models from three differ ent creators to show you today, all in the tailored mood which overtakes us with a calendar alerted to chilly changes soon. How long is a skirt? How long is a coat? How wide will they be?...are all current ques tions to which answers are re vealed here. Except for formal doings, skirts are not lushly fabricked. They do not sweep the ankles at an unbecoming, too-long line, nor does one need a tent-coat to cover what’s left. The ladies (to distinguish them from the teen-agers) will find that both poundage and years are reduced in effect by the fashion replacements. Line, in cluding the ankle line, is back in favor.

And so deftly and quickly did they work, that they were at the door, leaving the tables perfectly set, before the steamed clams and the clam broth had any chance to get cold. “We come back with lobsters in twenty-five minutes,” Charles said. And there was something in his voice, which told us that we would better be through with our first courses by the time they came back with the main dish. “We’ll be ready for you,” I told him, and then the door closed after him, and Dicky, with the ease and grace which always characterizes his management of any situation, had us seated at the table.

For Wednesday, September 1 THE sidereal influences accent the importance of tact, finesse and personal charm or inner forces and power rather than realistic and sor did objectives or routines. The crea tive powers are under excellent stimuli for unusual or unique per formance, although ideals and as pirations give dynamic force to all such efforts or objectives. Intuition, imagination, impressions, could be used to advantage. Thoroughly practical and commonplace affairs gain by good taste. For the Birthday Those whose birthday it is may enjoy surprising adventures or unique experiences, born of inner drives, imagination, strange feel ings or some sort of curious or mys- “hunches” or other inexplicable and unaccountable drives could find practical development, since the creative urge, although on irregular lin e s , is a c c e n te d .

With the addi tion of an egg, milk or fruit juice, sugar and flavoring, it will make a delicious pudding. Serve grape apples with pork steaks or roast pork. Cook thick apple slices in a combination of one- half glass of grape jelly and three- fourths cup boiling water. Pretty and tasty.

The whole idea now, as far as make-up is concerned, is to strive for a natural effect. If a crayon is used, there should be short little strokes from the inner terminal of the'eyebrow to the outer end. The effect is softer, more becoming than the hard even line. -... -The emaciated eyebrow is old stuff, been ra|ing for thirty years, ever since the end of World War I, when girls started to play with tweezers. It was a turn-about from the practice' of applying tonics to make the blows thick and abundant. It would seem as if the members of the feminine contingent must ever go to extremes. It is different now. If you don’t believe that statement, observe the pretties of the silver screen. They are getting back to normal as far as eyebrows are con cerned. Lower Edge To weed too much along the lower edge of the eyebrows is to make the eyes appear smaller. If the faca js one of curves—fulf cheeks, full lips, round eyes—the eyebrows should also be curved, never formed to a straight line that is unhar- monious. Too wide a space between them is often a mistake. The de cided upward tilt at the far end will give the countenance a sinister appearance. While the eyebrows are given a deal of attention, the lashes arm often neglected. They are an ex- eeedingly delicate growth, affected unfavorably if the eyelids ara in flamed or afflicted with styes. To keep them to a healthy state bathe the eyes every morning with hot water, then with cold. Applications, night and morning, of mineral oil will often bring a heavier, longer growth.

As you know, the reason some brighter youths avoid science, mathematics and certain other courses in high 'school is because they think they can find the other courses easier. But it is not just a choice of courses but also the degree of in dustry as a student practiced by you, which will mean most to you not only in the Armed Forces but also in civilian life. Having chosen courses well in high school and cul tivated good habits of study there should enable you to choose courses wisely while in the Armed Forces and to profit from these courses. I just can’t imagine any youth of draft age smart enough to be ac cepted by the Armed Forces, who could not gain from registering in one or more of thj courses made available to him while in the service. Teachers, parents and other rela tives can do a great deal to induce the inductees to go on with their > tinur.nee after returning to civilian life. The chancea_are pretty great that for those youths there will be a kind of Bill of Rights for further education similar to that provided for the GJ. who served in World War II. ICnoyri 10 IS.
