One is that which develops in older people, more often in men an in women. Sometimes Severe anxiety or shock brings on the symptoms but the real cause ig probably something else. The same symptoms may come also from infections, especially from epidemic "encephalitis, ‘a Virus infection of the brain sometimes spoken of as American Sleeping sickness.

Rot Retarded In Cottons
Mildew and other forms of rot cause such serious losses of cotton fabric every year that scientists long have been searching for ways to treat cotton against this damage. The best means discovered so far is partially to convert the fabric or yarn to cellulose acetate, similar to acetate rayon, by a chemical treatment. According to Agriculture Department specialists, partially acetylating cotton fabric does not change its' appearance, “feel” or strength. Yet it greatly improves its resistance to all forms of rot and also improves its resistance tq heat. After treatment, the fabric can be dyed as acetate rayon is dyed. The Southern sRegional Research Laboratory has developed practical and rapid commercial methods for treating cotton this way and foresees many possible uses for it, Partially acetylated fish nets and cotton linings for shoes
now are being tested commer--
cially. Other possibilities for using the cloth are awnings, tarpaulins, outdoor furniture and tents, sewing thread for shoes and other leather goods and insulation for outdoor elec.

High pressure publicity and glamour shots of starlets and sweater gals have done their work well. Women today are conscious of their figures — short-comings and otherwise. And what they see or don't see in the quiet of their boudoirs is not always flattering judging by the sales of bras and girdled. The bra industry of course has given imperfect little gals a big lift. Sales of bras, for instance, have increased from nearly 50,000,000 to more. than 75,000,000 in a six-year period. According to a survey by a woman's magazine, six of seven women would be aappier if they could change their measurements. Thirty-eight per cent want

Expensive
By RUTH MILLETT NEA Staff Writer THE wife who makes a habit of sleeping late in the morning instead of getting up to cook her husband’s breakfast may be aying a higher price for her ex{tra hour or two of sleep than che realizes. = No matter how good-na-[tured her husband is bout getting up alone every morning and cooking nis own breakfast, i's a pretty lonely way to start the day. And probably he secretly resents it. Even if he never indicates as much, it would be only natural for him to feel that his wife is far more interested in her own comfort and convenience than in his if she would rather grab a little extra sleep than start nim off with a good breakfast. But what really makes that extra morning sleep so costly to the wife is this: out on the chance to share the day's beginning with her husband.
MOST wives realize that it is important for a wife to be ome to welcome her husband when he returns from work in the evening.
