Show THE SENTINEL, MIDVALE, UTAH FRIDAY, AUGUST 9. 1940 Page Three Intoxicating ? VilaminFoe Of Many Ills I Though biochemists discovered vitamins only a quarter of a century ago, extensive research since that time has proven conclusively that they play a vitally important role in our everyday living. Their discovery has been hailed as the greatest scientific finding since thej days of Lister and Pasteur. As cures for ailments ranging from loss of appetite to cirrhosis of the liver, vitamins have been amazingly proficient, and doctors are using them widely today as substitutes for drugs and even, in some cases, operations, so effective is their power. Their best source, reports Maxine Davis in the September Cosmopolitan, is readily available . Practically all fresh foods contain them in varying r strength. Vitamin B which is found in grains, nuts, and such meats as lean pork and chicken, will go a long way to counter the effects of alcohol. Obstetricians have found it an infallible cure for nausea in pregnancy, and physicians have treated arthritis effectively thru its use. Doctors at John Hopkins Hospital, Miss Davis reports, have eliminated the necessity of an operation by using vitamins in severe cases of rickets. The procedure is simply to feed the stricken patient foods containing vitamins which make the bone structure pliable. When this has been accomplished, the bones are set in the desired position in casts and the patient is then fed a diet completely lacking in the vitamin used at first, thereby allowing the bones to harden. A great deal, Miss Davis says, has yet to be discovered in the field of vitamins, but they have already earned the title of "miracle workers." If you h&Ye been painting wood- work, the best way to remove the smell is to leave quarters of a large onion in the room until they ·have absorbed it. Be careful to throw away the onion immediately after it has done its work. These Fresh Peach Shortcakes make it a party! When the century was young, Mary Margaret McBride writes in the September issue of Cosmopolitan Magazine, "Dr. Case's Recipes; or Information for Everybody," was considered a reliable text. It prescribed water-fern root for pains in the back. And soot coffee, consisting of soot scraped from the chimney, settled in an egg, and served with cream and sugar was a certain cure for ague. But today, people complain about nervous breakdown from strenuous city living, and poor circulation from sitting too long at a desk. Remedies for these ailments also represent a sweeping change, Miss McBride points out. Neurologists suggest "taking" the "Moonlight Sonata" for troubled nerves, and 60-year-old Elsie de Wolfe has electrified her friends by starting a fad for hand standing. Times, the author observes, have changed, but only externally. What's so different about them? Just have a taste! Give your favorite white cake a new lease on life by spreading this delicio11s new filling luxmiously between its velvety layers. Canned strained pears and pineapple are the reason for its rare blend of refreshing fruit flavors, and this convenient combination of strained fruit saves you the trouble of stirring and sieving. Though these canned strained fruits were originally intende~ as food for the baby, the several different kinds of them come in handy for making a variety of attractive desserts.

There are pioneers today just as there were centuries ago-in business, in medicine, in engineering, in telephony. Telephone pioneers built the speech trails over the vast stretches of this country of ours. Their efforts, while less spectacular than those of the early pioneers, have had an important part in developing the vast expanses of plains, deserts, and mountains.

We have everything here--from the quaint fishing villages of New England and the old Indian towns of the Southwest to the so-called "Inland Empire" of the Pacific Northwest and the most astonishing cities the world has ever seen. Cities with buildings so high they scrape the sky, and a country into which you could pile half a dozen European nations--<Jr what used to be nations, and still have plenty of space left over! But it's not just for sight s~eing that we ought to go traveling in the United States this summer, important as that is. It's to discover that the same spirit prevails-that the same ideals dominate in communities 3,000 and more miles apart. It's to learn for ourselves that America is a state of mind as well as a very important geographic section of the western ' hemisphere.
