mm ——— Penorealic Wad Bellefonte, Pa., May 17, 1929. Y 0 ur He alt h, The First Concern. It used to be believed that water drinking with meals would retard digestion, but that has been disprov- ed. Unless the water is used to wash down food that is insufficiently mas- ticated, it is an aid to digestion, or at least produces no undesirable effect. Water is necessary for all of the body fluids, and is a part of every cell in the body. Two tnirds of the body weight is made up of water. It holds the mineral salts and building ma- terials in solution until they are de- posited where they are needed; and it carries away waste products. If sufficient water isn’t taken, there is a dessication or drying in the va- rious organs and tissues, and even the blood may become more concen- trated than is compatible with good health. Of course, we get water from our foods which have different propor- tions of water in them, and we get a large share from our beverages—tea, cottee, cocoa, milk—but there is also need for more water than is obtained in this manner. Marriott has emphasized that this dehydration of the blood to even a slight degree results in the impair- ment of the circulation, and as a re- sult, a secondary functional disturb- ance in almost every part of the body. This concentration is essentially liable to occur in babies. Babies and chil- dren have more need for water even than adults, for their bodies con- tain more water in proportion to their weight and a restriction of water will hinder their growth and develop- ment. “I want a drink” is perhaps the most familiar demand of child- hood, and it has a big physiological need as a basis. We'll have to allow our children to be heavy drinkers. You've heard the story of the little irl Shild’s demand for a drink during the night was a whim, threatening to spank her if she asked for it again. The little girl waited for a while and then cried, ‘Mamma, when you get up to spank me, will you get me a drink ?”’ That's pathetic, isn’t it? In certain conditions where much water has left the body, as in vomit- ing and diarrhea, and excessive per- spiration, the water intake must be much increased. Underhill, in an ad- dress before the New York section of the American Chemical Society, brought out the fact that anhydremia (lessened water in the blood), which is quickly restored to normal condi- tion by drinking water; but that the anhydremia from conditions in which the blood vessels are injured so that an undue proportion of the water seeps through, is more difficult to remedy. In case of severe burns, for example, the vessels are seriously in- volved in this way, and efforts to re- store the proper blood concentration must be persistent and prolonged, and fluids must be taken continuous- ly, until the blood capillaries injured in the skin by the burn have had time to repair themselves. I'm giving you incidents of abnor- mal conditions simply to emphasize your normal need for a goodly amount of good, fresh water every day. There are many who need to cultivate the habit of water drinking. Srobably, like all measures, this is rare. We'll say at least three or four glasses of water between meals should be a daily habit. Many find hat two glasses of water before Jreakfast has a stimulant effect on the bowels, and they are much .less liable to constipation. Tl advise those who are inclined to undereat, however, not to drink immediately before a meal, or to take too much water with the meals. The over- weighters needn’t heed this advice; in fact, a good drink of water before neals will help to fill the void so not quite so much food is demanded. I allow my reducing followers to drink all the water they want. Walter is not fattening, in the sense we use that term. That's right—Get a drink of water right now. It seems to me that there is noth- ing that contributes more to woman's beauty than an active skin. There is such a thing, though altogether too many of us do not think of our body- covering in just that way. There is also such a thing as a sluggish sickly skin. It is just as true that a neglected skin will reflect itself in the general 1ealth of the body as itisthat a ne- glected body will reflect itself in the skin. A well-cared for skin is a most important contributor to general physical and mental tone. Bathing has come to be a scienec. There are special baths for almost wery conceivable condition: Dry baths, showers, needle-baths, friction baths, salt baths, sun baths, air baths, Turkish baths and so on, almost with- out end. Each has its special benefit. For the average, healthy woman with her time occupied in office or about the house, two baths a day are not too much for complete cleanliness and proper tone. A warm—not hot— tub or sponge at bedtime, with a very mild soap, not only removes the soil and relieves the skin of the body odors due to work it has been doing during the day, but relaxes nerves and makes for a sound and refresh- ing sleep. In the morning, upon arising comes the quick scrub with bath brush and tepid water. whose mother, thinking that the ° PATIENTS TREATED AT COUNTY HOSPITAL. | : discharged on Wednesday of last - week, after having undergone medical treatment for several days.

The four mile stretch from Miles- burg to a point east of Curtin, for which bids will be asked this month, comes under last year’s allotment and will be entirely separate from the county allotment for the ensuing two years. The next piece of road on the list is the six mile stretch through the Barrens from State College to Wad- dle, which will be followed by a little over three miles running from Pot- ters Mills toward State College. The preliminary papers for both these stretches have been executed by the county commissioners and forwarded to the district offices in Clearfield for endorsement. | Another piece of road on the sched- ule is a seven mile stretch from Philipsburg to Sandy Ridge, but no papers have yet been executed for this.

Roadside stand inspection by person- nel of the restaurant hygiene section of the State Health Department's bu- reau of communicable diseases will begin its work at once. All roadside stands on the main and secondary highways throughout J Pennsylvania will be carefully check- ed as to proper sanitary facilities, medical certificates for food handlers and adequate cleansing equipment for eating utensils. In this connection Dr. J. Moore ! Campbell, chief of the bureau said: “While everything will be done by | way of inspections and re-inspections | to develop and maintain a safe type | of roadside stand—many of whicb al- | ready exist in Pennsylvania—the | main job in this important matter | rests with the motorists themselves. If they will patronize only those stands, large or small, that present a | cleanly appearance both outside and | inside, and drink water at such | stands only if the water sign of the | Department is in evidence, great as- sistance wil be rendered to the De- partment’s activities and undoubted- | ly a better and safer service in many : instances will result. | | i PENN STATE ANNOUNCES NEXT YEAR'S SCHEDULE. of the Announcement complete | | 49-5-1y | 1 rem me — —— i KLINE WOODRING.—Attorney at Law, Bellefonte, Pa.
