Weakness Due Tq Emotional Disturbance

WHEN a patient complains to ' his doctor of persistent weakness, it is necessary to find but whether he is suffering from a simple lack of energy and drive, a condition known asi lassitude and most frequently due to emotional factors,' j or frot& actual- loss of muscular strength, which may indicate a serious, physical disorder. There are many' reasons for \ loss of muscular strength/ such as /various forms of palsy ,and paralysis or certain, of' the muscles. : _ The symptoms of weakness due to emotional disturbance are present in a large proportion of persons and are usually due to conflict within tlje personality. , When, the inner man is completely occupied hates or dissatisfactions, he is- unable to expend his energjf in a useful, productive manner/ Such a*\ person is likely to develop symptoms of generalized weakness: . thus, weakness may be the early symptom of a disturbed personality. It is important to distinguish cerhin other causes of lassitude, many, times, after an infectious disease or prolonged illness; a . "person may fail iu energy, chiefly due to lack of activity and weakness Caused by the severe illness. ThL tvpe of latitude will up in a few weeks.

ed himself. Although ideas of feminine beauty vary with ,phy, women’s desire to have their ’feet regarded as small, dr at least not large, seems to be almost universal. No woman's true beauty was ever marred by the size of her shoe, except in her Own mind. The one woman whose happiness depended On her ability to wear a certain shoe was Cinderella. Q O— —’ Fears have often been express- ' ed that the heavy taxation of the present day, making it hard to accumulate and keep fortunes, might ■destroy philanthropy. The dire predictions have hot yet been justified, according to a report by the John Price Jones Company of New, YorkiCity, which has directed many-, fupdraising operations for universities and''benevolent institutions. The report is ■ that, in ten representative cities, gifts and bequests for philanthropic enterprises in B the first nine months of 1951 were' almost a third greater than in the corresponding period of the previous year. The nine-month total, moreover, surpassed the total for any . full year since the foundation began .its studies of giving in 1931. private benefactions are not yet on the verge of diasppearance. —o ——o Voting In India:— ■ For the first time India is holding a general election. It will be Interesting to see the reaction of 'some of the new electors. The remote hillmen, for example, have known no kind of government but thtr-decisions of the chiefs or a council of eldest. Do they have a . suppressed urge for self-expres-sion, or will they continue to abide ■ by the advice of those whose opinions they respect? »> <. In India the Brahmans have airways carried all before them. This <may be one reason why the Brah'fnans -have been such strong advocates of self-government for India, since they expected to rule. On the other hand, in communities with many untouchables the Brahipan could have hard sledding if lhe people really decided to be independent. People having the .power of the vote tor the first time are likely to mike mistakes. But mistakes ’ can he educational. It is certain that India’s rulers have been learning by experience since inde- < ■ penitence was achieved.. Through participation in elections, the people may begin to have governmental experiences of their own.

Chronic illness or infection may be a cause of /weakness, as m,ay such diseases as rheumatic fever and kidney disorders. In the south, hookworm infection fs a frequent cause of this condition. A severe case of anemia may sap the strength. A person who does not get enough of the essential vitamins in' fdod also may feel -‘good for nothing.” Certain glandular disturbances, as a decreased thyroid output or a disturbance in the adrenal gland, also may be at fault. The prolonged use of alcohol and <pther drugs may be a factor in causing weakness. \ ! Although emotional fdisorders ar® the most frequeht iauses of this feeling of weakness, an individual having, these pymptoms should have a thorough physical examination by his 'physician to determine whether dr not a diseased condition of the body may 'be the cause. Only ff this examination ' fails to a physical reason for the weakness should an emotional disorder be blamed. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS T. E.

CHAPTER THIRTEEN ••DO YOU know the Ragsdales?” Mollie asked Peter when he slid into the booth. "Now, that’s a silly question! 1 withdraw it. I’ve seen you with them before this.” "I expect so —Wo’-ve double* dated. There’s a girl in the diet department I go around with a little, and I’ve taken her out with them.” '' / , / “Is she a ni<?e girl ?•” “Janie? Very nice—cute. Ragsdale didn’t take to her. But that makes us even. I don’t take to his woman.” Was that the reason for the malevolent look with which Liz Ragsdale had watched Peter join Mollie? “I thought you liked everyone,” Mollie said idly. “Oh, no! Only people who like me. Did you order?” “1 told the waiter to come back, , that you’d probably want food. This is your dinner relief, ’isn’t it?” “That’s right. Won’t you .. “I have an evening engagement. I won’t eat now. I ordered a drink.” \| “Good."\ He told the waiter his needs, and leaned toward Mollie. “I skid 1 had something to ask you. It’s about a case I have on Men’s Surgical—chap named Joe Mayer. Know him?” “Should I?” “He’s a Medic. A rather small man, slight, hair getting thin. Not healthy-looking because he has a history of malaria contracted while he was in service overseas." Mo 11 i e’s eyes widened, and Peter’s bright head nodded up and down. “Yes! He’s been advised not to stay tn medicine, and ths school allows him to stay only because he was a student when he went into service, and the school’s policy is to readmit all such students ...” “And in the Group,” said Mollie chryly, “a. policy is a policy, no matter what.” “Yes, and that’s a good thing sometimes.. But — well, anyway, this Mayer was laid low and suddenly with a severe abdominal pain.” His hazel eyes glinted. “No, I didn’t order an AZ, 1 knew he had appendicitis just like that!” His fingers snapped.' “It was one of those easy diagnosis things. No variation. But 1 hesitated to order an operation because of the 1 malaria.” He glanced up at Mollie, 1 who nodded slightly. “I spoke to Dr. Cowan about it.” “You did?” Mollie was surprised and sounded so. “Well, 1 know he’s bones, but I happened to meet him in the hall right outside the room we’d put Mayer into—and I just had to talk to somebody. That was when I wasn’t so aware of what a queer duck Cowan is.” "Oh, now wait a minute,” said Mollie. “I’m going to take a little time right now for that queer duok business.” — —

The assembly of cases, the cross-filing, the frequent need to throw away years of work and start over —all of which means that men in research work very long and very hard for unsensational results.” “Cowan’s had some sensational ones.” “Yes, he has had. But the work has been as hard for the ones that were failures. The desert between accomplishments £as been wide and dry.” She earnestly, and Peter leaned back to watch ;her. “You really like him, don’t you?” he asked. “Os bourse.

"She told me that she wouldn’t talk about her teaahta 1 hadn’t said much: 1 h'ajdha good time at their party. Bqt: it was quite a brawl, and you’d think that would give her more material for gossip than my small affairs —but maybe she likes them better.” "Tl|iat isn’t it.

Homemaking Tips by Anna K. ’Williams Home Demonstration Agent Upright Cleaningi cleaning tools are being recommended to homemakers these days by heart specialists as well as efficiency experts? Both agree that women can save strain from stooping, lifting and kneeling —and save time also py cleaning utensils with handles long enough for comfortable, fast, and upright woik. 9 . Many wtfmen bena almost double at the daily chore of Cleaning the bath-tub With a cloth when they could save strain and possible accident by using a long-handled brush. For easiest sweeping, homemakers should take a tip from industry and use\ a long handled pushbroom .with fine bristlts and a long handled dustpan. Many could make better \use of' vacuum cleaner attach 1 -' inents. t If handles of brooms, mops, and even vacuum cleaners are tooshort for cotnforLi as they may be for taller women, it’s worth having the household'Sandyman add a length or even install a longer handle to make work easier and'faster. For waxing floors, the specialists advise a long-handled applicator and self polishing was to save effort. Those who use “wet mops” need to consider n0t.,... only the length of the handle but the weight of the mpp when lifted out of water. The new light Sponge mops may do the job more easily than the more familiar “Ray mop.” \ Wool Jersey Recommended For Fall, Winter Wear ' Wook jersey is in high fashion for fall and winter wear. For the homemaker who would like to make a wool jersey dress, hefe are a few tips to help give her dress a professional look; ( There Sre two types of wool jersey. The worsted-wool jersey is suitable for crisp tailored garments, while the wool jersey is better for semi-tailored and Soft dres'ses. A simple pattern without many details will be easier to handle. However, the pattern should have enoughdullness to prevent sagging or stretching, j ' The rib of jersey indicates the right side which is usually folded to the inside. To shrink, the fabric, iron over a' damp cloth on thfe wrong side with an iron hotter usual for wool or a steam iron over a press cloth may be used. The iron should be moved up and down with the lengthwise grain with a light touch to avoid stretching.

The lengthwise grain of the fabric should be marked with a basting stitch ox tallor’i ch|lk. The crosswise grain may be located by following a row of loops across the width of the jersey. So that the finished garment wil lhang or drape as it should, it is important that the lengthwise and crosswise markings on the pattern be placed on the straight grain of the fabric. To prevent the edges of jersey from curling while it is being cut out, the pattern may be placed on the rib or the right side. A running stitch should be sewed along the edges at the seam line after the garment has been cut out to hold the edges straight and prevent stretching. , A slightly coarser needle dhan is ordinarily used for oumber 50 cjr 60 thread should be used. To prevent puckering, the tension on the sewing machine .should be loosened sligbtljj? and the stitch lengthened to make 14 to 16 stitches to the inch. The fabric should be handled lightly and not forced or pulled into the machine. Button-holes, snaps, hooks, and eyes should be reinforced with firm, light weight preshrunk cotton fabric and shoulder and waistline seams with seam tapy. For a flat finish, ribbon seam binding should be used to finish the hem rather than folding over the raw edges. For the final press, the garment should be pressed -carefully on the w'rbng side. iMSKmncs idb New Address The following new address has been received here for Pfc. Vernard F.
