"Keep Clean"

Not too many years ago, before running water was a taken-for granted conven’°nce in most x homes, folks bathed from basins on a daily basis . . . and took a real honest-to-gosh dunking bath only about once a wek. Well, Ole Wik, one of our readers who left the city for a cabin in the Alaska wilderness, found out just how easy it is to clean every part of one’s body, using only seven cups of water — with is just under a gallon — in a wash basin! Our pioneer discovered that to take a complete bath he needed only a 15-inch aluminum container, a washcloth, a towel, soap, baking soda, and a fingernail brush (for scrubbing the pan when he’d finished). The real secret of the waterconserving wash method, according to Ole, is the elimination of soap from most of the bath. Suds and soap film, you see. are hard to rinse off in a small

amount of water To begin your water-savihg sspohge bath, simply rub down wrth a hot. wet washrag. rinsing the cloth frequently. (You may want to use a little soap on the hairy parts of the body but save that part of the bath till last so the soap film won’t accumulate.) Shampooless shampooing presents special problems. Wik suggests keeping your crowning glory clean by using baking soda! (If you're going to try this, do make a small patch test first to check for any possible allergic reactions.) Baking soda, which is a mild alkali, seems to react with hair oils to produce its own naturally mild washing product. In fact, under the proper conditions the soda will even create a bit of lather. To wash your hair, put two or three cups of soft, hot water into the basin (make it as warm as your scalp can stand). Add two or three tablespoons of baking soda, then bend over the basin and soak your scalp. Comb the soda solution through your hair . . backwards, forwards, and sideways. The dirt and oils will

begin to wash out and will soon neutralize most of the soda. So after you’ve combed the solution through your hair several times, empty the pan and put in some clean “soda water”. Repeat the combing process, then pile your wet hair on top of your head (or if your hair's too short for that, just wrap a towel around your shoulders to catch drips) to let the “bicarb shampoo” work while you take your bath and brush your teeth. When you “draw” your bathing water, the Alaskan suggests adding a heaping teaspoon of soda to that liquid, too. Baking soda is a good cleansing and deodorizing agent, and he believes it has a beneficial effect on any kind of skin. (Pregnant women sometimes use it to relieve the itching sensaion caused by their bellies' stretching.) After your bath, put a new supply of warm water in the basin, dunk your head again, massage your scalp with your fingertips, then comb out the soda water . . - along with the remaining dirt.

Progress Against Backaches Estimates are that more than 19 million doctor visits a year are related to backaches. Many of these visits to doctors are from patients whose underlying problem is depression although this diagnosis may not always be made. r” n Among the classes of drugs prescribed to relieve backache pain are muscle relaxants and analgesics. These drugs treat the symptoms, but may not relieve the cause of pain in those patients who are depressed. Pain and depression often coincide. Chronic pain states can cause depression. Depression is often associated with chronic pain complaints. The use of an antidepressant drug to treat these types of pain states is very promising, according to Dr. Stuart R. Hameroff, director. Pain Clinic, College of Medicine, University of Arizona Health Sciences Center, because he believes the drug causes the body to release enkephalin peptids, the body’s natural pain killers. Medical researchers reviewing the uses of the antidepressant drug doxepin hydrochloride have reported data to indicate that the drug may have additional potential in the treatment of chronic pain as well as peptic ulcer disease. Dr. Elliott Richelson, Professor of Psychiatry and Pharmacology, Mayo Clinic and Mayo Foundation, said “Tricyclic antidepressants for the treatment of peptic ulcer disease might find an important use in these patients. Further research is necessary, but it would appear that tricyclics have a valuable role to play in the treatment of ulcer disease." Thia news stems from a two-day symposium on pain and depression. It involved the participation of specialists in the Field. It was sponsored by the Medical College of Virginia under an educational grant from Roerig, a division of Pfizer Pharmaceuticals.

Treat Your Tools With Care

Are your tools in shape? As most home handypersons know, even „ the best tools can do their best only if they’ve been kept in mint condition. Here are some tips that may help you give your tools better care, for better repairs, and longer life. • Protect tools from rust. Apply a light oil or silicone spray coating. • Remove nicks from screwdriver tips with a file. • Keep files in a plastic case or wrapped to avoid damage to teeth. "• Keep all tools clean and cutting edges sharpened. Use a hand file, or grind on a whetstone or grindstone. • Keep the striking surface of a hammer clean and never put it away when it is wet

• Don’t abuse screwdrivers with heavy work that they were not meant to do. Don’t ever try to open paint cans with a screwdriver. Os course, mediocre or poor-quality tools —often 1 bought at “bargain” sales — will never perform as well as top-quality equipment, no matter how much loving care you give them. Your hardware dealer is an excellent guide to help you choose good tools from bad. He’ll often recommend tools such as Crescent screwdrivers, Lufkin measuring tapes and rules for accurate repair and construction work, or a Nicholson file or saw, all from Cooper Tools. They are first-quality tools that will help you do firstquality work. All they need is conscientious maintenance and care.
