The Doctor Says— Cure Unknown

For Abnormal Growth

By EDWIN P. JORDAN, M. D. THERE ARE on record human giants of enormous size. One t who was studied

tall and® his weight was proportional to his height. Many others have been nearly eight feet tall and probably a few have heen even larger. At the other end of the scale are the human swarfs who may be when fully wn well under four feet tall. Now the great wth

and the stunted development of puman dwarfs are both the results of what might be called disease. In the case of the giants, the trouble lies in the pituitary

gland at the base of the brain.|,

This gland produces a hormone which affects growth. s » - . THERE ARE several causes for stunted growth but this also is caused by disturbances of one or more of the hormones. Dwarfism, ‘too, is often caused by the pituitary gland, but by insufficient production of the growth hormone. However, there are other types of dwarfs. In certain cases of childhood diabetes, growth is interfered with so that the adult is seriously undersized. There are hereditary conditions also which lead to insufficient development of the bone and failure to grow to normal size. » = »~ THE GIANT and the dwarf or midget are both of great interest to medical men because they represent types of disease caused by the hormones going wrong. Technically, a midget is simply a small dwarf, but popularly midgets are differentiated from dwarfs because their bodies, while tiny, are in perfect proportion. This is in contrast to the normal-sized head ‘and trunk, with short legs and arms characteristic of the dwarf. Although the underlying cause of most cases of giantism or dwarfism are known, medical science has not yet mastered a satis-

factory treatment. There is, for|

example, little use in trying to given a hormone which will cause in an effort,to increase size. Incidentally a person who is moderately undersized cannot be given a harmone which will cause him to grow to any appreciable extent.

Men and Women—

By ERNEST E. BLAU N AD THAT ran recently in the paper said: “Woman desperately ill over loss. of charm bracelet. Sentimental value. Finder please communicate, etc.” Now who but a gal would become desperately ill over one of those little romance tinkle-tinkles? It's just another’ indication that when a woman loves she loves all over—it's never just a side issue with her.

I know a babe who couldn’t sleep for two nights after her sweetie-pie had popped the question. But when I asked the guy how he had slept, he said, “Wonderful! J thought that cheese I had would keep me awake.” : Women love harder than men because their happiness and future, more ‘than men’s, are centered on a home, family, security—and these depend on loving and being loved. . A gal is willing, even glad to suffer for love. But if she’s rejected it may turn to hate. Then boy! Does she want to make the guy suffer! As the philosopher Nietzsche observed, “Woman learns to hate in proportion as she forgets how to charm.”

= = = THE LOVE business starts young with the gals. To quote |, from Helene Deutsch’'s “Psychology of Women” (Grune

Which Sex Loves More Deeply?

Let’ Far

& Stratton): “The readiness to fall in love again and again is stronger in the adolescent girl than in the boy. The wish to be loved by many . ... is characteristic of

female adolescence.” And when the babes mature the current can run very deep: “How do I love thee? Let me count the ways. . I love thee to the depth an breadth and height My soul can reach . . . by sun and candle light. «++ I love thee with a love I seemed to lose With my lost saints—I love thee with the breath, Smiles, tears. of all my life! And, if God choose, I shall but love thee better after death.”

—Elizabeth Barrett Browning.

Blend the three tahlespoons of butter and flour together well, add milk gradually and stir constantly over direct heat until the sauce boils and thickens. Stir in the bouillon cube, pepper and onion juice and remove from the heat. Add grated cheese, stirring until the cheese is melted. Stir the bread crumbs in the melted butter to coat them well. Slice the peeled cucumbers about one-eighth inch thick. Into a sixcup casserole, put .lternate layers of cucumber slices and hot, seasoned’ cheese sauce. Top with buttered crumbs, cover and bake in a moderately slow oven (325 degrees F.) for iabout 30 minutes; then remove

about 10 minutes longer or until the cucumbers are just tender and surface-browned. Serve piping hot. » s - PLUM BUTTER 3 gts. red plums 9 c. sugar Choose plums that are ripe but not over-ripe for the best butter. Wash the plums carefully and put into a large preserving kettle. Cover and cook over low heat just to the simmering point; simmer gently until the plums burst and juice flows freely. Rub the plums and juice through a puree sieve; there will be about nine cups of puree. Return the puree to the preserving kettle, heat to simmering and add sugar. Stir until well-mixed. Bring to a boil and boil vigorously, stirring almost continuously until the mixture gives the jelly test (two drops of sheeting from the edge of a metal spoon). } This will require about 20 min-

|We, the Women—

Avoid Talking Of Illness Before Child

“THAT POOR kid hasn't a chance to grow up to be anything but a neurotic,” said a doctor friend of the family.

Why did he say that of a 5-year-old child? Because 5 child hears i] Ho much tax of sickness, too much dramatization of og ma 1 Y.8ll‘ments. Mama is al3 ways bidding . for sympathy Ruth Millet ° pecause of her “«wful headaches.” Papa is aiways being reminded that this or that food doesn’t agree with him. Junior is forever hearing his childhood diseases discussed in detail. . It's a pity more parents don’t realize what they are doing to their children when they talk so much about sickness. . » = MAYBE Mama can’t help her headaches. But she doesn’t have to talk about them —or let her children learn when they are young that sickness can be used to get attention, to pro-

| mote sympathy and as an ex-

cuse to avoid unpleasant situa-

| tions.

A child can't be kept from having his share of the common diseases. But his parents don’t have to dramatize each illness, to build it up in his mind as one of the more important things that has ever happened to him. The sensible way, of course, is for the grown-ups to keep still about their minor ailments, to do as little talking as possible about their serious ones and to treat their children’s illnesses as matter-of-factly as possible. That is the way to avoid having a little neurotic in your home.

YOUR MANNERS—

Situation: ‘You have a neighbor who is a profes- . sional man and you would like to get his professional advice.

Wrong Wey: Drop by his house and consult him, and make no mention of paying him, for his ‘service to you. Right Way: Go to his office and consult him professionally.

Purse Snatcher Armed With Knife

Police said today that two women were threatened by a man with a knife who took a purse belonging to one of them near the Spink Arms Hotel Saturday night. Mrs. Collin Whitehurst, Spink Arms Hotel, and Mrs. Mildred Jung, 843 N. Bosart Ave. told police they were crossing the alley north of the hotel on Meridian St. when the man jumped in front of them.
