A lot of moral mentors tell us
theso days that you can't mould a
people's character by legislation,
or something like that.' Stophen
Douglas used some nil eh argument
with equal effect
before you and : :t
were born. T h o
great state of Ne
braska make an
ambitious attempt
to establish health
education in the
public schools by
act of legislature.
See. t!4lli; School
Laws of Nebraska:
"Provision shall be made by the
proper local school authorities foil
Instructing the pupils in all schools
supported by public money, or
under state control. In physiology
and hygiene with special reference
to the effects of alcoholic drinks
and other stimulants and narcotics
upon the human system."
That specific mention of alcohol
Htiagcsts the strong hand of the W.
I. T. t'., and i, for one, wish 'em
iirji'o power. My mother wan a
member of the W. C. T. U. and It
wit s a m i g h t y good thing for us
kids. 111 tell the world. Still, some
of the methods of education em
ployed by the organisation then
and now. seem questionable. One i
vivid lesson the good women
taught us kids somehow failed to
impress the youngsters who were
destined to be whipped by booze,
I'luiy poured out some alcohol in
a dish and touched a match to It,
ami as It burned they told us beer
and whiskey and wine burned the
drinker's stomach just like that.
Fortunately for us kids at home.
Mother never tried to feed us such
fairy I ales, but il was not so for
tunate for other kids w ho didn't
Kct the right Instruction at home.
A Nebraska friend sends me tho
Physiology and Hygiene syllabus
of' the Normal Training Hih
Schools. The outlines therein laid
down for the guidance of teachers
are Indeed Imposing; to my mind
they nre forbidding. I'd say the
courses of study for birth school
teachers In Nebraska would do
well enough for Professors In the

OI'ESTIOXS AM) ANSWERS
When to lire the Doctor
My mother, aged 74, has had a
physician. Dr. , call on her
weekly or oft oner for more than
throe years. She feels well enough
. . m. r-i : 1 1 . . . . i T
moat of the time and she thinks
i it unueceuuiry fur him to come
every week unless she calls him.
i But he insists if He can't comg
l regularly tpry week he will not
come at all, and that a telepbone
call will not bring him If mother
once refuties to receive his visit.
This worries her . . . (Mrs. S. 33.)
Answer, You give no hint as .to
Wiut, if anything,-aila mother. If
the doctor Ik unwilling- to explain
to you why he. should attend your
mother regularly,. why not firo him
and employ a physician who Is lens
mysterious? There are still too
many old quacks in our profession
who work the changes on trusting
patients, "visiting chronics," as
some of them call it.
Softening of the lirniu
Please explain what Is softening
of the brain? What causes it? Is
it hereditary? Do any except
elderly people ever have It? (M.
I. H.)
Antswer. "Softening of the
brain" in a term commonly applied
to paresis, general paralysis of the
Insane, which is in most cases a
late effect of syphillis. This devel
ops in middle life, sometimes In
early adult life, it is not heredlt
tary. Then there is a different
condition which doctors formerly
called "softening of the brain."
namely, clotting of blood in the
brain substance, a condition akin
to a stroke of paralysis from apo
plexy .(cerebral hemorrhage). This
most commonly occurs in elderly
persons and is an accidental result
of ordinary arteriosclerosis ( har
dening. qf tlio apterloH). This cere
bral thrombosis (clotting) is not
hereditary, unless you assume that
premature hardening of the arter
ies runs in families. I do not be
lieve HO.
Child Manifests Psychotic or
Neurotic Trait
My son nged H years, eats the
excretion from his nose. Ve have
to keep stockings on his hands at
l night . . . (Mrs. c. K. 11.)
Answer. -Better p-ut his arms in
cuffs such as nre used to keejv
children from biting their nails ot'
sucking their thumbs. The habit
is rather a manifestation of pre
disposition to mental or nervouw
abnormality. Why not consult :t
good psychiatrist whom your fam
ily doctor recommends, about tho
re and tniining of the child?
Silver Stains
Lately my silverware turns
brown whenever my skin touches
it . . . T. O. A.)
Answer. Normal sweat and
sebum rontains sulphur com
pounds which react with silver to
form a brown or black sulphide
of silver. This explains the stain
ing of the skin by good gold jew
elry (either silver or other matal
in good alloys). I know of no
remedy, except to change to othei
ware.
SANTA CLACS
,By Alice JuoSoii IVale
AloriV Tvith fairies, witches and
giants poor Santa , Claus is )y,W
storhTly ruled out "of -the-lives of
many modern children. ,Tho Idea
Is that children should be told
nothing but the truth. '
. There is, of course, much to b
said in favor of telling children
only the truth. It helps them to
learn early the distinction between
fact and fancy, between truth and
falsehood.
These are sound arguments foii
telling the truth about even so
pleasant a fancy as that of Santa
and his toy shop located vaguely
either In heaven or at the north
pole.
Hut is the literal truth always
necessary ? Must the distinction
between fact and fancy be made
mercilessly clear to every child
about everything whether ho likes
it or not?
Certainly when a child quite
definitely asks for the truth on any
subject, it cannot be withheld
! without shaking his faith
