Did you know that blood pressure, especially high blood pressure, is apt to be higher in cold weather? Dipping one hand or foot in ice water and keeping it there for a few minutes will also cause the blood pressure to rise. Mental and physical exertion, nervousness and excitement have is this effect All HI torg know that the blood pressure reading obtained when a patient is first examined is often materially above that individuals average or normal blood pressure. Many have had difficulty in getting life insurance because nervousness at the time of the examination caused their blood pressure to rise above normal. Did you know that high blood pressure in itself causes almost no symptoms? People who have it may have shortness of breath on slight exertion and tire easily but this is due to the associated scarring and weakening of the heart doc-Dav- i f I Snack on a Frosty Night Broiled Wienies (See Recipes Below) Wintry Snacks The cold, frosty evenings with their full program of basketball games, sleigh ride parties, skating and other wintertime amusements call for piping Increasing Death Rate from Automobile Accidents per 100,000 Population hot, man I knew in college turned up in our My married life was perfect until a neighborhood. The story of our affair is not new. All the lessons in the world cant save me from what is going on now. By KATHLEEN NORRIS LANGUAGE is strong enough to convince' NOyoung boys that theft NOT W If your husband told you, one of these cosy winter evenings, that during his senior year at college he supported himself entirely by stealing and forging, you would be horrified. You couldn't laugh it off, tell him that it didnt make the slightest difference to you. You could not honestly say, I love you for what you are, dear, not for what you were." Having sold his honor once, you would feel and the world would feel he might sell it again. And in exactly the same way a man knows that a girl, who was reckless in giving her favors in girlhood, is not going quite suddenly to attain an entirely different position toward what ought always to be the sacred symbol of her honor. These are phrases, and to girls mine seems an attitude. But I can assure them that, viewed in the light of later years, they will see the whole thing differently. It would be easier for a young wife to explain to her husband that she lifted some money cash out of the department-stor- e register when she was working there years before her marriage, than to explain that she was intimate for a few months with one of the men who is known to her husband in business. Buried Secrets Reappear. Of course, if she can avoid it, and hope permanently to avoid it, a girl doesn't tell her prospective husband these things. But that security isnt always as sound as it seems. Hardly a day goes by without bringing me a desperate letter from some young wife who has supposed her secret long forgotten and buried. Many of these women say that, feeling it would be more comfortable to admit to the affair before marriage and start on an apparently honest basis, they have softened the story by saying that the man was someone you never met. He died the following year. This does smooth things over for the moment Few men, especially in anticipation of an immediate marriage to an adored woman, will waste time on Jealousy of a dead man. But matters are much worse when the perverse turn of events brings this man into contact with the family again, and the unsuspecting husband is perhaps cordial to him. So that the wife must either make a clean breast of the whole tiling, or put up with the insufferable situation of having a secret with one of the guests of the house that would crush her husbands I ORTH IT No amount of good advice will keep some girls from saying to themselves Everyone else does it, v hy shouldn't I ? So they willingly give away and forgery are wrong. And not merely wrong in being their future security and peace punishable crimes. Wrong because of what they do to a of mind..

He is strong man; we live for our garden, our books, and our one daughter. Reggie was invalided after a terrible bout with pneumonia four years ago, and we took what capital we had and bought a tiny farm, Rachael and which my I have brought to the point of being an asset rather than a liability. Meanwhile Reg had started writing, little bookish essays at first, for which he was not paid; later more ambitious literary studies, one of which is to be published in book form in the spring. Our lives were -perfect perfect, until a man I used to know as a college student turned up in the neighborhood. The story of our old affair is no new one to you. I thought it concerned only ourselves. I was away from home for the first time, and every other girl did it, why not I? The 15 years between that time and this have been disciplinary years, and I know they have made me a finer and wiser woman than anything that was promised by the nature of that girl of 19 But all the lessons in the world can't save me from what is going on now. I suppose you would call it d perfect- blackmail Victor amuses Reggie, who calls him a 'rough diamond, and Victor wants to come and live with us. He has no job, no money, no ambition. He has grown heavy and lazy, but on the three occasions when he has called he has, as I say, made himself amusing, and outlined what he would like to do with the farm to develop it Oh, Reg wouldn't divorce me or leave me, the letter concludes, but his faith in me, his pleasure in what he calls my lily girlhood, would receive a terrible shock. He is not strong; he cannot go about as other men do. He has so few pleasures! His utter pride in Rachael and me is the greatest of them all. I've written J. G. telling her that the only way out Is the way of full confession. That means she can dismiss the odious Victor in no uncertain terms and then resume her happy way of life with no further reference to the cloud that has come up so suddenly. Victor will have her old letters, of course, and she the sting of old memories. And Reg will have to replace his idealistic love for his wife with something less fragile less perfect. I wonder what her answer would be today if she could hear that girl, of 15 years ago, asking, Whats the difference? MIGHT be aptly said that a woman is known by the jewelry she wears. Certain it is that jewelry accents have a way of showing either refinement of taste, or a love of display. It all depends on whether you belong to the spectacular costume-jewelrgroup or to the conservative one that holds on to the tradition of quiet elegance. To women who have an inherited intuitive sense of dignified glamour pearls are ever the answer to their jewelry preferences. This season the style prestige of pearls has ascended to a new high. The big news that is adding to the lure of pearls is the return to favor of long ropes o J pearls with matching bracelets and earrings in the manner of the ensemble shown above to the left In the illustration. The fact that in this instance pearls are worn with a black wool knit evening sweater is also Important news. Time was when jewelry worn with things knitted was taboo. Now its the smart thing to do. Speaking of the new ropes of pearls, some are unbelievably long and worn in tiers reaching below With a siren-slithe waistline. black satin formal they are the last word in smart jewelry.

Kidneys may become and may cause constant headaches due to hardening of the arteries in the brain or to the decreased function of the kidney. Dizziness is due to hardening of the arteries to the internal ear or to the nerves supplying it. Most of the symptoms are due to hardening of the arteries which is not the cause of the high blood pressure even though it is more marked in those who have it. weakened Condition Often Found. High blood pressures are almost invariably found in the course of routine physical examinations for insurance, or for periodic health audits, or when the patient has consulted the doctor because he has a cold, indigestion' or some other complaint that is not due to high blood pressure. Not infrequently during the winter months a patient who knows that he has a high blood pressure will consult his physician saying that he is not feeling at all well and is sure his pressure must be way up. This usually happens after a sudden and rather extreme change in weather; when after a severe cold snap with high barometric readings, there follows an unusually warm spell with low barometric pressures. The patient's blood pressure is probably much lower than it usually is. If he had come in when he was feeling good during the sunny cold snap, it might have been higher. Such rapid changes in weather may cause serious falls in pressure for at such times clots may form in the hardened arteries of the brain or heart and cause strokes" or coronary occlusions. Under such circumstances clots may also form in the arteries to the intestines or lower extremities. Until more is known of the causes of high blood pressure and of methods for eliminating them, treatment will not be satisfactory. Treatment directed only at lowering the blood pressure may often do more harm than good. The blood pressure is high to give a normal circulation in the presence of a disease that causes a narrowing of the smaller arteries due to spasm or An inthickening of their linings. dividual who has a high blood pressure must learn to live with it and to avoid anything that causes it to rise or fall from its usual level.
