BUNDESEN, M.D. HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE The exact cause of high blood pressure in many persons still remains a mystery. It has been recognjzed, however, that many such patients also suffer from irritability, anxiety, fear and re- sentment. This has led many doc- tors to believe that if these emo- tional disturbances could be re- moved early enough, the high blood pressure might vanish with i. As a matter of actual fact ac- cording to Dr, Robert W, Wilkins of Boston, reassurance, sympathy and encouragement on the part of the doctor play an important role in the treatment of such patients. Fearful of Outcome Many people with high blood pressure are unnecessarily fear- ful of a dire outcome because of their condition, Naturally, it does them good when the physi- clan, explains that high blood pressure is usually what is known as a "benign" 'disease. That is, it does not progress rapidly to a dis- astrous climax, but runs a long course so that those affected can live long, useful and comfortable lives, Of course, this presup- poses that they get proper treat- ment and follow instructions. Such assurance seldom lowers the blood pressure but it does keep the patient calm and hence may prevent it from going higher, In any case it makes him feel bet- ter both mentally and physically. The patient with high blood pressure must not be an invalid but should live as normal a life as possible, He should have pre. scribed amounts of exercise, rest and sleep and should use a well- balanced diet without overeating. Moderate exercise in the open air is specially valuable, and at- tendance at entertainments and social functions, which get the patient's mind away from himself, | is especially useful. Two Things Necessary Dr. Wilkins thinks that in re- gard to diet only two things are necevsary; that the amount of food eaten be reduced, if neces- sary, *o bring the patient's weight down to normal, and that 'the amounts of fat in the diet be lim- ited in order to decrease the amount of what are known as lipoids in the blood. It is thought that these lipoids may have some part in causing hardened arteries, Insofar as drugs are concerned, Dr, Wilkins has found none which is useful in lowering the blood pressure, In certain patients an operation known as sympathec- tomy may be found effective espe- cially in those under fifty years of age who have not had the high blood pressure long enough to cause eart or kidney damage. Any cause heart or kidney damage. Any other symptoms, such as headache or constipation, which arise in the patient with high blood pressure are treated in the usual way, With proper treatment the pa- tient with high blood pressure not only may be made more comfort- able and contented, but he may live for about the usual span, MAKING HIS MARK He could neither-read nor write, but when a distant relation died and left him a small fortune he acquired a cheque-book, but in- stead of signing his name on cheg- ues he put two crosses, and the bank paid. Then one day he handed the cashier a cheque signed with three crosses. "What's this?" demanded the cashier. here." < "I know," was the reply, "but my wife's got social ambitions, She says IT must have a middle name." Guides who have passed their 8t.

Time was when the flyweight, tipping the scales at a little over 100 pounds, didn't dare eat a man-sized meal lest she start to fill out to larger proportions. A Health Menace Freak diets have been shown up as a lot of nonsense, and health menaces. When & woman discov» ers that she can't speeze into last year's frock, she trot-trots to her family physician for a physical checkup, The price she pays for an office visit is about what she would spend for a box of complex- ion powder. If the doctor gives her a bill of health, finds she really is overweight, he will give her a diet list, one that will supply the neces- calories and mineral salts, be sufficiently nourishing, yet will prevent her from adding to excess tonnage. Slowly she will drop down to nor- mal weight. Any healthy woman can reduce without danger to well being. She is simply getting more calories than her activities are burning up, so Wey are stored away in the form of human tallow.

During the last few weeks this reporter has attended several cine- matic triumphs. Each was a mo- dern, bright, not always too happy but nonetheless, entertaining pic- ture, and in each there was a cer- tain amount of drinking. And there- in lles a pet peeve. I wish the movie characters would either leave the stuff alone or empty their glasses. The other day I saw a nicely made effort full of hearts, flowers and psychiatry called "The Secret Heart." In it the currently blonde Claudette Colbert (hurry and go back to normal, dear) and Walter Pidgeon did a bit of adult drink- ing, Nothing objectionable, you un- derstand, just nice moderate drink- ing. But four times during the .pic- ture they filled glasses, took one or two sips, and then left them. At one juncture, Pidgeon bought a bottle of champagne at a road- house, poured two drinks, and left it. Now, that just isn't' right. In "The Razor's Edge," as sharp a plece of cinematography as you could wish to see, there were enough unfinished drinks left around to give ulcers to the entire Russian army. Add Oscar Dept.: To the best two minutes of acting in any one picture so far ours goes to June Allyson for her teary scene um "She Secret Heart." It was ter- rifie. Youth Past; Love Lasts Hollywood -- Fifty years ago George Beck asked Elizabeth Ruess to marry him in New York, but she demurred on the ground they were too young. After a half century of separation they were honeymooning today. He's 68, she 67. They had lost all con- tact with each other until last Oc- tober, when she learned Beck's wife had died in 1944. She has been a widow for 26 years. Drumdelnies, Nairn, Scotland-- (CP)--Gen. Arthur Blair, 77, who took part in the Nile Expedition and the South African War, died at his home here.

BUSH "GROWS" JEWELS Spokane -- Discovery of a $160 necklace hanging in a lilac bush virtually ended the quest for almost $14,000 worth of jewels, used as playthings for two weeks by Dale Randant, the seven-year-old boy who found them. A Federal Bureau of Investigation agent said the boy had thrown the $160 necklace into the bush at the same apartment house where a woman earlier had found a $12,750 rear! necklace which she tossed aside because her $5 string "looked better." The neck- laces and a $700 sapphire ring re- covered earlier were returned to Mrs. George F. Jewett, to whom the jewelry was consigned. Home of an ancient civillzation, India had great well-planned cities 5,000 years ago. Dear Mrs. kman: Yesterday I overheard, on a bus, a bit of conversation between what I judged was a mother and Ger late-teen-age daughter. They were talking about going to a party and the girl said, "They're inviting a lot of people. . .mostly Marion's friends, but scene old people too." To which her mother replied," You should say 'oldér people, my dear." Was she referring to some rule of eti- quette in this correction? As a mat- ter of fact, I found myself deeply Interested in what she said, but I havent: been quite able to figure it out. Frances Yes, the mother was referring to what may be called a "Rule of Tact." The idea of this suggestion is that it is tactful, in referring to your elders, to say older people. . . never old people. Everyone knows that he or she.is older than some- one, but no one wants to be referred to as old. : Courteously Taking Leave After an Introduction Dear Mrs. Beeckman: , it proper for a woman to say when she is taking leave of a man she has just met, "I'm very glad to ave met you", or is this proper only for a man to say to a woman? Doris This pleasant comment about a meeting may properly be made by either a woman to a man or a man to a woman, It's just a courteous remark for anyone to make. Dramatic Entrance for Bride at House Wedding Dear Mrs. Beecknian: 1. We are planning to have a house wedding scon, in the after- noon. The pi Beil will be only a matron of honor and a best man. florist, but I would very much ap- preciate your judgment about where to locate the ceremony-place, We living-rocen, a fireplace at the end opposite, and an archway (leading to the dining-room) at one side of the room. I think the fireplace is where the improvised altar should be; others in the family think the archway is the best place. What is your advice? Also, it is all riglat for the bride to come down the stair- case and enter the living-room for the ceremony? And the matron of honor too? 2. If you sa the matron of honor to precede the WHAT SHOULD I DO ABOUT -- An Overheard Lesson in Tact? EY By MRS. CORNELIUS BEEOEMAN 8. Would it be correct for us to have records of the wedding musie on our phonograph? WwW. N. 1. TI should think it would be the most effective and artistic plan to have the bride come down the stair- case and proceed across the room to the improvised altar in front of the fireplace. But the real decision should be based on where you think would be the best vantage point for the majority of the guests. 2. Yes, the matron of hi should come ceremoniously down the stairs first, and there should be a drargatic wait of a minute or so be- fore the bride comes down =the stairs. At the foot of the stairs the bride's father is waiting, and as she reaches the last step he joins her, she puts her left hand on his right arm and together they walk to the ceremony-plage, 3.

Karn, Phm.B, Skin, hair and eyes, to say nothing of posture and manner of walking, mean a great deal to the skilled eye of a physician. What passes for good health to the untrained and undiscem- ing eye, speaks to the doctor of underlying infections, of an un- easy mind, of loss of energy and normal adjustments to living. Insomnia, nervousness, lassie tude, are telltale symptoms. Let your doctor check for the cause, let him write the magic prescrip- tion which will re-write Lealth and poise for you.
