Your Health,
Coughing is Nature's way of
ridding the throat or breathing pas.
sage of some offending object. So
defined, it would seem always tobe
beneficial; but there are other facts
to consider, and more than one
kind of cough. Neither is a cough
itself the trivial, innocent thing many
people suppose.
Dealing with the last considera-
tion first, a cough actually costs the
cougher something—a surprising
outlay of energy. It has been esti-
mated that if you cough once every
fifteen minutes for ten hours you
expend energy equivalent to two
hundred and fifty units of heat,
which is equal to the nourishment
contained in three eggs or two glass.
es of milk. At a normal rate, we
expel air from the chest four feet
per second, but in violent coughing
we expel it at the rate of three
hundred feet a second. Thus a per-
sistent cough not only weakens the
constitution but is a direct cause of
emaciation. I have personally known
two men who kept themselves thin
by coughing, most of it useless; and
gained weight after they conquered
the habit.
I am not implying that we are
never to cough; when there is a
real reason, a cough is the natural
and proper thing. But we have to
remember that a cough can be a
habit; that is, the more one coughs
the more he is apt to. All such
things lend themselves readily to
habit formation, but in the case of
a cough we have, in addition, to that
fact, a real cause: the throat be-
comes irritated from the repeated
exertion, and the consequent tick-
ling, swelling, etc., make us cough
some more. Some persons are far
more susceptible than others to out-
side irritants, like dust, air currents,
sudden drops of temperature, etc,
and cough easily. Others can stand
those things but get a “dry throat”
when they talk much or read aloud
for an hour or two, and cough as a
result.
Violent coughing is dangerous;
many people particularly the aged
or those of delicate physique, have
proken blood vessels, with most
serious results, from extreme effort
of this kind I once saw a man faint
from the exhaustion caused by a
coughing spell. He was, ordinarily,
above the average in physical
strength, but was just recovering
from a protracted illness. It
would be a great saving of energy
and a reduction of risk if people
would remember that offending mat-
ter in the throat is more easily
raised on the first or second effort
after a rest. There is more explo-
sive effect in the cough; it is strong-
er than the “tail-ender” of a series
of efforts. If one can control the
cough, it is much more effective to
stop for at least a few minutes af-
ter one or two efforts—more effec-
tive and less dangerous to the blood
vessels.
As TI have said, there are some
legitimate causes for coughing. But
never cough without cause, never
cough more than necessary, and try
persistently to find the cause and
remove it. If there seems to be no
cause, look to your sleeping posi-
tion, if you lie on your back a great
deal you probably breathe through
the mouth, and this makes the throat
dry and sensitive. Almost always
mouth-breathers are very susceptible
to cough.
The “habit cough” is much more
common than is generally realized.
With a great many people a cough
constitutes the preliminary for
every action. In church, at an en-
tertainment, any place where there
is a gathe of people, you may
notice the custom of coughing and
clearing the throat at every intermis-
sion. With some, it seems to be an
attempt to relieve nervousness, and
this kind of cough is always most
persistent where conditions make it
particularly objectionable. I some-
times think that if a minister
should request his congregation to
make a special effort not to cough
for ten minutes, half the people
present would imagine themselves
about to strangle in half that time
—among them, perhaps, many who
would not cough once an hour had
not their attention been called to
the matter.
Coughing is a good deal like yawn-
ing—even more contagious, I be-
lieve. Most everyone must have felt
the strong inclination to yawn when
he saw another dé so. In a crowd,
merely to mention yawning
sometimes cause a regular “epidem-
ic” of it. ‘The following result of
a physician's experiment proves
how we unconsciously follow exam-
ple: ;
During the first half of an hour’s
lecture to students, the doctor noted
only two or three coughs. Then he
himself began to cough, purposely,
at intervals of three or four minutes.
During the first five minutes of the
second half of the lecture eleven
coughs were heard; during the third
five minutes, nineteen; during the
fourth, seventeen; during the fifth,
twenty-seven, and during the last
five minutes, sixteen coughs.
A physician tells the following |
amusing but significant story: “1
once attended a man who had
coughed almost without intermission
for over three hours. He was physi-
cally exhausted by the recurring
violent paroxysms of coughing. But
during my examination a child was
run over by an automobile in the
street near the house. In the ensu-
ing excitement the man actually
ceased to cough for over half an
tonr. When his attention adverted
to the fact, he resumed coughing as
hard as ever. But this singular
circumstance assisted me in per-

PENN STATE JERSEYS
OF BLUE AND WHITE.
Opponents of the Penn State foot- |
ball team this season probably will
want to know whether the Lions
are coming or going when they see
the Nittany squad trot on the field.
The Lion's jerseys bear . numbers
front as well as back this fall, blue
block numbers on white sweaters.
The change in color this fall
marks the third in as many years,
Until two seasons ago Penn State
always wore blue, the college colors.
That season the Lions made their
appearance in cardinal jerseys. The
change fooled spectators at a num-
ber of games, since the blue and
many of the Lion opponents also
wore blue in some combination. Last
season the jerseys were a combina-
tion of blue and white. This fall
they completed the red, white and
blue cycle with all white jerseys
with only the numbers in blue.

FATHERS VISIT SONS
AT STATE COLLEGE.
A smile suddenly brightened her |
Upwards of 1200 parents of Penn-
sylvania State College students vis-
ited the campus over the past week-
end in the annual observance of
Fathers’ Day by the institution.
Appreciation of the efforts of par- |
ents last year in the Penn State
puilding bond issue campaign Was
expressed by president Ralph D.
‘Hetzel. He pointed out the many
building operations now under way
on the campus, declaring the bulk of
them are thé direct result of intense
public interest aroused during the
campaign. Even though the bond
issue was lost by vote, Doctor Het-
zel declared that the resulting in-
terest in State College brought about
the greatest appropriation for build-
ings that the college had ever re-
| ceived from the Legislature.
Following the annual meeting of
the Penn State parents’ association,
visiting parents toured the campus
and its various building activities
and saw why the college cannot in-
crease its enrollment when virtual
ly all old buildings that are being
replaced by new must be destroyed.
They also witnessed a football game
and mothers were entertained by
women students at tea. Fathers
were tendered a smoker Saturday
evening and attended college chapel
on Sunday.
