AND

TO EAT
Simple Methods of Diagnos
ing Disorders Caused by
Wrong Eating.
By EUGENE CHRISTIAN, F. S. D.
(Copyright, 1914, by American Press Asso
ciation. DIAGNOSIS Is the first and most
Important step In the treat
ment of all diseases. Wrong
diagnosis is usually followed
lay wrong methods of treatment, wlille
correct diagnosis simplltles aud points
with certainty to the causes of dis
ease. With an understanding of
causes, the remedy in a great majori
ty of cases suggests Itself.
Every person should be his own
diagnostician, especially in regard to
stomach, intestinal and all disorders
caused by wrong eating and drinking.
To diagnose one's own condition is the
true and logical method of locating
any disorder, for symptoms are mere
ly nature's language. It is a method
of the body communicating with the
brain and telling in the plainest way
possible what the trouble is; therefore
symptoms given off by one's own body
to the brain ought to be interpreted
better by oneself than by the most
skillful or experienced doctor.
The human body Is a sort of power
plant, a combined engine and boiler,
and there is a very close analogy be
tween this conscious, self acting ma
chine and the one that furnishes the
power to generate electricity or to turn
the wheels of a factory.
A Homaly Illustration.
If your electric lights were to grow
dim and if other lights in the neigh
borhood were in the same condition
7011 wonld know that the dim lights
were merely symptoms and that the
trouble was not in the wiring system,
but at the power plant which fur
nishes the current.
Suppose yon were commissioned to
make a diagnosis of the trouble and
you were to find the engine in good

working order, but lacking power.
'You would go at once to the boiler
room. Suppose you found the pressure
'Of the steam gauge low and were told
by the fireman that be could not keep
the steam pressure up; then suppose
you examined the furnace (the stum
ach) of this leviathan aud found that
the combustion (digestion) of the black
provender was good; then suppose you
looked Into the lungs (fire tubes) of
this laboring monster and found them
clean, l'ou would know the trouble
was not there. You would also know
that there was but one pluce left to
explore and that was closed. You
- would know the trouble was inside of
he boiler; that it was lined with scale
deposited from the water evaporated
'in producing the steam. This scale
forms a coating upon the lower inside
of the boiler and upper side of the
fire tubes and shuts out the heat from
the water. The heat being the source
of energy and the steam only the
means of supplying it, the power is
rlppled.
Now, suppose you desired to treat
or doctor this condition. The boiler
ould be cooled and the scales removed
ifoy going into it But let us suppose
that the steam boiler, like the human
body, must always be kept under pres
sure. What then could be done? It Is
evident that the first thing would be
iu luone uw use 01 water containing
the mineral lu solution which causes
the scaly deposit. This is a process of
changing diet or removing causes. As
to the scale already in (he boiler, it
must be dissolved and gradually elim
inated or it tiiUHt remain there and per
manently reduce the elllciency of the
power plant.
There are many so called boiler com
pounds (medicine) recommended for
the removal of scale, but every engi
jieer knows how exceedingly important
it is to uvold the line of any one of
these remedies that would damage the
boiler Itself. A compound that would
Injure the steel of which the boiler Is
made us well as the scale would be is
desperate remedy Indeed.
There Is a close analogy between
In lit - J
1 LnuwoxaW -
the condition described in the steam
. boiler and the human stomach in case
I of indigestion, stomach and Intestinal
i trouble. No medicine known to set-
J ence can remedy a condition caused by
wroug eating, but all remedies injure
the body Just as a dangerous com
pound would Injure the steel of which
the boiler is made. The striking dif
ference betweeu tho human body and
the steel boiler is that if we cease to
eat wrongly, thereby removing the
causes, nature will rebuild the diseased
tissues and bring us back to health or
to our normal couditlon. The process
of curing disease, therefore, Is one of
standing out of nature's way, merely
giving her a chance. If we furnish na
ture the tools aud the material to
do her work the body will go on for
100 years, barring accident as a per
fect automatic machine, without ever
giving to the brain one symptom of
distress. With such a prize as this
constantly before the human mind, it
would seem that the last thing In life
we should do would be to abuse this
marvelous piece of mechanism called
the human body, and yet in the face
of these facts It Is true that civilized
man gives less thought to the things
that keep him lu perfect health or
produce disease than to any other one
thing with which he comes in contact.
Familiar Symptoms From Which Cor
rect Diagnosis Can Be Mada Acid
or Sour Stomach.
The following symptoms are given
In the order of their various stages
and iiniortatice:
First One experiences a feeling of
stomach irritation or a dull sensatlou.
sometimes called heartburn.
Second. A very keen appetite, caus
ed by an Irritated stomnch. This ex
plains why a drink of whisky will pro
duce an appetite. When one bus no
appetite it is evident he should not
eat but when a drink of whisky is
taken it poisons and irritates the lin
ing of the stomach, causing the blood
to collect there to protect the stomach
against these poisons. The presence
of blood produces a false appetite, and
foolish persons think they are benefit
ed. The truth is they are not only
poisoned with alcohol, but they have
killed a symptom, bushed nature'!
voice with which it was warning them
not to eat and in addition to this It
has caused them to eat food they did
not need and could not assimilate and
-which must undergo decomposition in
the stomach, the Intestines or the blood.
Many people mistake abnormal ap
petite, caused by irritation of the
stomach, for evidence of good health
until after it produces a general break
down. Third. Fevered mouth so called
cold sores on the lips and tongue, both
of which show that the stomach is out
of condition.
Fourth. A sour fluid rising In the
throat from one to two hours after
meals.
Fifth. A white coating on the
tongue.
Sixth. A faint feeling, emptiness,
or, in the language of the layman, hoi
lowness, or an all gone feeling.
Fermsntation.
The evidence of fermentation is a
burning sensation in the stomach, al
most exactly as in superacidity. In fact
fermentation is the direct result of
superacidity, as there could be no fer
mentation without acid preceding it.
The gas generated by fermentation
sometimes passes along down the In
testinal 'tract into the ascending colon,
accumulating at the highest point
which is in the transverse colon. This
seriously Interferes with the blood flow
into and out of the heart and lungs
and causes what is termed valvular
heart trouble. The fact Is that there is
no such disease as valvular heart trou
ble. If the diet is corrected and fer
mentation is prevented the heart will
do its work perfectly. The results of
constant fermentation are usually fol
lowed by Irritation, catarrh, ulceration
of the stomach, intestinal congestion
and general physical emaciation.
Narvousnaas and Nervous Indigestion.
Nervousness, nervous indigestion
and melancholia represent advanced
stages of stomach irritation and su
peracidity. These are among the last
signals given to the brain before final
collapse, and If they are not heeded
the victim may expect to fall ill with
nervous prostration within twelve
months from the time these symptoms
are first experienced.
Melancholia is purely a stomach dis
ease, and many people under these
spells take their own lives rather than
face what they believe to be insanity
and ostracism.
If the person thus afflicted Is not
able to diagnose and prescribe a diet
for himself It Is the duty of the fam
ily physician to perform this service
for him. The misfortune is that In
the big medical colleges throughout
the country dietetics is not a part of
their curriculum, and the doctor goes
forth from these Institutions to treat
people without a knowledge of dietet
ics and is therefore unable directly to
diagnose and treat disorders caused by
wrong eating and drinking.
White Bread.
Ordinary white bread Is an article
of food that has grown Into great
popularity merely becnuse it saves la
bor and trouble, but for this the aver
age family pays dearly. In every fam
ily there should be installed a small
mill. If in the town or city It could
be turned by electricity; If in the coun
try it might be turned by band. In
this mill could be ground the whole
grain, not Into flour, but a form of
meal, which Is far superior, and from
this meal could be made most excellent
whole wheat, corn or rye bread, and
the cost would not be but a fraction of
that paid for ordinary bakers' broad.
After the system of preparing grain
ot home, either by boiling or grinding,
and of cooking vegetables In a casserole
Olnh Is once Installed It will be found
rjiiKte oimveuk'ttt and will afford nioi
relish tnun toe old methods.

Laundry Hints.
AFT EH washing pass the shirt
through thlu hot water starch
t before It is hung up to dry.
This, you will llnd. will give
just the right amount of stiffness to
the body part of tho Bhlrt.
Then haug It out lu the open air and
when quite dry starch the cuffs lu cold
water starch In exactly the snmo way
as you do a gentleman's shirt; then it
there Is an attached collar starch this
and also the box plait which goes down
the front
Itememhcr always to wet the part
Just beyond where tho starch will go.
This will prevent the starch spreading.
When this Is done sprinkle the remain
ing dry parts with cold water,-roll It
up tightly In a clean cloth and lay It
aside for a short time until you are
ready to Iron It.
Take the shirt out of the cloth and
place It with the neck part toward the
edge of the table. Iron the collur first
until It Is perfectly dry; thou iron the
yoke on both sides.
Next do the cuffs and then run the
lrou Inside the sleeve a little way so
as to dry the gathers and the thicker
parts. Now open the sleeve out as Hat
as possible and Iron It front and buck.
If you possess a sleeve board this
will lighten your labors considerably,
as it is almost Impossible for the sleeve
to be properly Ironed If It lies Hut ou
the table.
When Ironing the sleeve without a
board slip the hand Inside once or
twice to prevent the starch sticking,
ray seclal attention to the top part of
the gathers.
First pin the two fronts together, top
and bottom, and lay the fullness into
plaits. Next kty the sleeves down the
sides of the back and turn them up
ward again so that the cuffs show at
the neck. Fin them Into position and
turn over the sides, also pinning them
together.
Fold the -end upward, making it a
convenient size. On no account press
these folds with an iron. They should
all be done as lightly as possible to
avoid undue creasing.
Cold water starch Is made In the fol
lowing way: Mix the starch to a smooth
cream with cold water, then add borax
dissolved lu boiling water in the pro
portion of a dessertspoonful to a tea
cupful of starch.
KITCHEN ADVICE.
How to 8ettle Coffee Economically and
Satiafactorily.
As the practical housekeeper knows
or should know, the coffee bean after
roasting and crushing Is very light aud
dry. One of the sure tests made for
pure coffee is to put a teaspoonful on
top of a glass of water right on top
for if pure most of the coffee floats un
til it absorbs enough water or Is stirred
under. Over the bean there is also a
very fine light Bkln. which separates In
the boiling process and clouds the liq
uid. These floating particles must be
treated by the settling process that is,
something must be done to carry all
floating particles to the bottom of the
pot and hold them there, leaving a
clear, sparkling liquid above.
Naturally the agent must be much
heavier than the objects acted upon;
hence clear cold water, being of greater
weight than the steumlng coffee, If
poured In the top of the pot at the
finish In the proportion of one table-
spoonful to each half pint will of It
self act as a settler. If after this
treatment and after standing where it
will keep hot from three to live min
utes the put is bandied gently It is pos
sible to pour a clear cup from tho orig
inal pot without transferring it Into
another receptacle.
Then there Is the eggshell method.
Wasli the eggs as you use them; then
when opened the shells may be crush
ed and added to ground coffee a more
economical method than that of using
an egg for settling.
Once establish yie idea that it Is sim
ply the presence of a heavier substance
carrying all floating particles to the
bottom of the pot and holding them
there and the mystery vanishes regard
ing the question of settling the coffee.
How to Make English 8oallope.
Here are some hints for the thrifty
housekeeper who wants to reduce the
cost of living. English scallops present
potatoes in a palatable way. Apples
are delicious cooked In the same man
ner and served with pork,
For each large potato put' one table
spoonful of flour Into a small bowl,
mix it Into u rather thick batter with
cold water, season to taste with salt
and pepper. I 'are and cut white pota
toes as for chips, have a deep pan of
hot fat, dip the potatoes In the batter,
drop them into the fat and cook until
brown. Itemove them with a fork,
drain them on brown paper In the col
ander, serve In a hot uncovered dish
with cold meat, steak or fish.
How to Wire a Minaret Tunic.
Uo not use fine wire to make the new
tunics stand out properly, as this bends
entirely out of shape very easily, bill
Use feather boning. This will give
readily, but will also spring back Into
shape again.
