The Sidewalks of Washington BY THORNTON FISHER. ‘Washington residents are returning from their vacations by the hundreds, each with his or her tale of a holiday enjoyed or a disappointment in the place which had been expected to fur- nish so much pleasure. Practically every day during the past week the writer has met one or more friends who have advised him for or against certaln resorts. One has returned from Atlantic City, another has been abroad, a third spent two weeks in Canada. One spent his vacation in the Adiron- dacks, while still another angled for fish, Each has a different story to tell. One of our acquaintances saved his money to spend on a two weeks' vaca- tion which he later decided to enjoy in his own apartment. Already many of the sun-tanned va cationists are beginning the fleld for next year's journey.

Until the good work | is complete, even psychologists are likely to receive inquiries about injec- tions for mental symptoms. Doctors use injections for legitimate purposes: and it happens to be a drastic method | of treatment that impresses the pa- tient. It has been a favorite in the hands of quacks. Injections in the arm to quiet nerves, and 15 of them with a fee for each, | 1s a sufficiently suspicious treatment to | arouse distrust. The patient is wiser | or franker than the doctor, for she | recognizes the mental nature of the | occasional distressing sensations to which since childhood she has been | subject. It would require a careful examina- | tion of symptoms and life history to | determine nature of this “nerv- | ousness,” and in the light of that to | suggest a rational treatment for its | relief. But without that one may | safely and firmly advise that all such | treatment be promptly discarded and | & competent physician with a knowl- edge of nervous conditions be placed on_the job. The theories back of quackery are | variously interesting, though the prac. tice of quackery arouses mainly pit; for the dupes and contempt for the | practitioner. Yet both statements are | subject to some modification.

A gentleman who lives in a well known apartment house re- turned the other night, fatigued with a long evening's work at the office. He entered the elevator and as- cended to his floor. As he walked ab- s ent mindedly down the hall, he unthinkingly en- tered an open door and threw his hat on a chair and re- clined on a sofa. All the members of his family were away, and he was, [EEK! ] o [ therefore. not per- | plexed -wvhen no one greeted him. He had just lost consclousness when he was awakened by a scream. Leap- ing to his feet, he gazed into the fright- ened face of a strange woman, who threatened to call the police if he didn’t leave immediately. Slowly he began to realize his error, and the lady, 00, recognized her neighbor. She in- vited the Symmer bachelor to have some iced tea. He cannot explain how he happened to raunter into the wrong apartment. e He had made three detours on the way from his home to the office. “Why do they have to fix all the streets at the same time?” he complained. “There is scarcely a thoroughfare in the ecity that is not undergoing repairs.” Then he found an open street. It was bumpy and the small car he was driving danced about like a soft-shoe hoofer.” “I wonder why they let the streets get into this condition?” he asked. Consistency, thou art a rare jewel. NTALLY FIT JASTROW. and complex but alarming and dis- tressing symptoms, and keep mentally fit while bodily unfit. The apprehen- sion and the “nervous” state compli- cates as in the susceptible it dominates e disease. That is the reason why for many patients it takes a long time for them to get well after they have been cured. They may form the in- valid habit, and never quite return to the right attitude toward their condi- e | tion indispensable to mental fitness. And as for the questionable practition- ers, some few of them may be sincere but deluded, and still further muddled or consoled by finding that the delu- sion pays. All this must be taken into account in understan that branch or type of what Dr. bein calls the “Medi- cal Follies,” that deals with nervous and mental cases. The idea of an injection is just vague enough and impressive enough to combine a touch of mystery with an art of mastery. One must be very wise to discover an element that once under the skin transforms your nerves and dissipates your fears, and one must be very competent to administer it and know that it must be done 15 times before the charm works, vided the magi- clan’s palm is touched with gold. It is this mental injection adminis- tered by suggestion rather than the physical injection administered by | syringe that induces the patient to take the treatment; and if it works ~—-and no quackery is so hopeless as not to work or seem to work some of the time—the cure may be attributed to the same process. Suggestion is mental injection. The theories back of quackery that | make their pretensions plausible and ttract the victims are many and strange. Some of them are outworn heritages from the past, like exercising or magnetism or a medical astrology; others are novel theories again pat- terned upon earlier stages of m 1 knowledge, and yet others are chal- lenges or protests against medical pro- ced;lre as too materialistic, too unnat- ural. | Yet the largest class of all are those that imitate (in reality parody) the scientific support of medical theory, and so, like patent medicines, adver- tise directly or by implication that this “system” is a new discovery of a great unknown medical celebrity yet unrecognized because of professi jealousy, but moved by phila hmgm motives to offer his discoveries and his skill to the suffering poor who can afford to pay. Such are “mental in- Jections.” There s an apparatus, electric or magnetic or injectional or vibrational or chemical or polaric or whatever may approximate some recent proced- lure in medical practice, and there is assurance and verbose explanation and testimonials and flourishes of degrees and decorative symbols of learning. Compared with all this panoply, sim- ple wholesome advice, encouragement and rational regimen seem too Intelli- gible a procedure to require an adept specialist. Yet in this enlightened day the no- tion that people like to be fooled in matters of health may be discarded. They don't; they are just trapped into folly by their despair and the network | of pretentious systems that flourish like parasites on the advances of medicine, | Including the medicine of the mind.

Good and evil planetary aspects will contend tomorrow, according to as- trology, but the adverse stars are domi- nant. 1t should be a favorable day for mer- cantile enterprises of every sort and especially for those who deal in ma- chinery.

THURSDAY, AUGUST 30, 1 DOROTHY DIX’S LETTER BOX Foolish Mother Would Have Youth Forego Life in Order to Avoid Hardship—Why Nobody Pities the Bachelor: EAR MISS DIX: I am 20, my fiance is 22, and we expect to be married soon. We both have good jobs and are saving to pay for a house that we are buying together. We would be happy except that my mother croaks disaster at us all the time. She tells me that I am young and carefree and don’t know when I am well off, and that I should stay single for 10 years more. She says that my sweetheart and I will not always love each other as we do now. That we will have sickness and trouble; that children will come; that we may lose our home and our jobs, ete. Mother doesn't object to the young man I am going to marry. She knows he is fine, but she is just afraid for me to marry lest I might not be happy. What can I do to change her point of view, for we want her to be happy with us? PALS. Answer: Laugh at her. Tell her that you are going to be as good a wife as she is, so you know your husband will never get tired of you, and tell her that the older you grow the more you appreciate what a good mother she has been to you. All she wants is just to be jollied along a little. She really doesn’t mean a word of what she says, and If she thought that you were going to be scared off matrimony by her warnings she would execute a neat mental flipflop and become a press agent for it. Mighty few mothers want any old maids around the premises. Generally they are more anxious to get their daughters married than the girls are to marry. They seem to think it is sort of a reflection on themselves for their girls to be passad over. Listen in on any conversation of mothers and you will hear them bragging about their married daughters, but never a word about the ones who have stayed single. a cult of melancholy, I don’t know, but a lot of them do. When they sit down to reminisce they put on the soft pedal and recall all the tear-compelling incidents that they can remember. They simply gloat over funerals and disasters; over disappointments and work, worry and anxiety. And when they talk to their children about the future they do nothing but hang red lanterns along the road. Their talk is all of the hardships, the rocky stretches, the steep climbs, the precipices, the calamities and sudden death that are waiting at every hairpin turn. ‘Why mothers should make If it wasn't for the incurable optimism of youth that shuts its ears to | mothers' croaking, no boy or girl would ever have the courage to make a move. Yet mother seldom regrets her life, and she doesn't wish that she had layed safe and hadn't married, and had kept her little earnings to herself, and g&d had her neat little apartment without bothering with a husband and chil- dren, for she knows that she has had a full life and it was worth all she paid for it. She has worked hard, but she has had the joy of knowing she was of service in the world. She has made sacrifices, but it was for those she loved better than herself She has known poverty and anxiety and sickness, but it has made her sister to all the world. And if the luster of love has dimmed, she was once bathed in ineffable glory. So go along, my dear, and marry your man. Don’t be afraid of life. When it comes, you will have the courage to meet it. And don't listen to mother's warn- ings. Though others may have failed in marriage there is no reason for your doing so. Take your chance. Furthermore, mother will be all right, once you are married, and think she made the match. % DOROTHY DIX. DEAR MISS DIX: Why do you write so much about women making them- selves attractive to men, when we all know that there are any number of men who would give their eyeteeth—if they have any left—to get married, and yet have not the faintest idea of how to go about it. Perhaps there are women who have no attraction for men. Certainly there are men who have no attrac- tion for women, and nobody writes to the paper about it. AN OLD BACHELOR. Answer: It has been said that the reason the Bible is full of words of consolation to widows, while no syllable of consolation is offered to widowers, i3 because the widowers can console themselves any time they so desire. It is on that principle that I proffer more advice to women on how to make themselves attractive to men than I do to men on how to make themselves attractive to women. For in the love chase man is the pursuer and woman the pursued. Man can openly seek his mate, while a woman has to do it by stealth. et married, all he has to do 1s to give the women in his vicinity the once over, gaclde which one he prefers, and then start out to get her. He can go to see her. He can take her to places of amusement. He can ingratiate himself by making her presents and, in a word, he can sell her him- self in matrimony by telling her of his love, and how good and kind he would be to her, and what a pretty home he can give her. And if the first woman he approaches turns him down, he can try a | second, and a third, and a fourth until one says “yes." There is no reflection on | him for having failed in the first instance. Moreover, all of the ladies he has courted are pleased and flattered with his attentions, and gloat over having been asked to marry him. But it is far otherwise with a woman. She may want to marry. She may know just exactly the man she would like for a husband and be perfe certain that she could make him happy as his wife, but she can't go and him so. She has to wait for him to notice her first. And if she makes any overtures to him, she scares him to death and he flees from her. Furthermore, if she tries a second venture when the first lead pans out, she gets the name of & man-chaser, and that is fatal Compare the number of old bachelors and old maids, of widowers and widows you know, and you will see how much easier it is for a man to marry than it Is for a woman. Yet men, as a class, are neither better-looking, nor more intelligent. So one is led to the inevitable conclusion that women are less choosey than men, and that when a man doesn't marry it is not because he lacked attractions enough to get him a wife, but because he didn't want one..

August 30, 1814~The Georgetown militia was drawn up along the water- front of that town today in anticipa- tion of a hostile attack from the Brit- ish fleet, which is anchored off Alex- andria. It is not yet evident whether the enemy fleet intends to approach the Capital City. Many persons be- Jleve it will not do so, and that the only purpose of Capt. Gordon, who 18 in command of the British ships at Alexandria, is to get supplies at that point. When the British troops occupled Washington several days ago, Admiral Cockburn, who is in command of all of the British vessels operating in the waters of Chesapeake Bay and its tribu- taries, was here with Gen. Ross, the British military commander. A depu- tation of citizens from Alexandria waited upon the admiral here at that time and asked him to spare their city from destruction, saying they were willing to yleld with honor. It is un- derstood that Admiral Cockburn told this deputation that the British fleet was in need of supplies and that if the Alexandrians would furnish them at reasonable prices the town would not be_molested. But many persons in Washington have been very fearful during the last few days of another visitation from the enemy since the British fleet appeared off Alexandria. Some of them have been even urging President Madison to make terms with the enemy in the event the Capital City is aftacked, but the President has declined to consider such a proposition. When Capt. Gordon's enemy reached Fort Washington a few days ago the garrison of the fort, under command of Capt. 8. T. Dyson, decided not to make any resistance to the fur- ther passage of the British ships up the river. On the contrary, our troops blew up the fort and abandoned it. President Madison returned here three days ago, following the occupa- tion of the city by the British. The next day Mrs. Madison returned and Joined her husband. They are occu- ying the house of Richard Cutts, Mrs. adison’s brother-in-law, at F street northwest between Thirteenth and Fourteenth.

Dear Miss Leeds—(1) What kind of a shampoo do you think is best for hair that is slightly wavy? (2) Is peroxide good for freckles and, if so, how should it be used? CONSTANT READER. Answer—(1) There are several rules to observe in washing the hair. First, but reduce the soap to a liquid or jelly first. Second, do not use water that is too hot; just hot enough to make a rich lather and dissolve the grease in the hair. Third, rinse thoroughly at least three times in clean water. not use strong artificial heat to dry the hair, but squeeze it gently between warmed towels. You may buy prepared | shampoo liquids or make your own out | of one cake of castile soap, shaved thin, ounce spirits of rosemary. Melt the soap flakes in the water. If possibl® wash your hair with a bath spray rath- er than in a basin. (2) Do not use undiluted peroxide on the skin, as it tends to make it too dry and yellow. After massaging with a lemon bleaching cream you may pat on the following mild bleaching lotion, which contains peroxide: 1 dram boric acid, 2 ounces witch hazel, 1 ounce glycerine, 1 table- spoonful peroxide, 2 ounces rose water.

When a widow remarries she must look out for the family of her first hus- band as well as for herself, Sometimes a widow is left dependent on others; in these instances, her second marriage can rarely affect the family of her first husband in an adverse fashion. Remarriage should not mean a sac- rice of personal fortune for several reasons. Marriage, like any other venture of a similar sort, is subject to hazard. The hazards may be of those of fortune, change of heart, or any other. While the woman herself may decide to accept the risks involved to realize a happy union, she must acknowledge a certain obligation to her immediate family. Children must be sheltered, cated. It is not fair to subject them to the chance of losing necessaries as well as privileges when one marries for the second time, Their economic future should be assured them as provided by the estate of their father. When their funds are Jeft in trust this execution of provision is automatic. The widow must look upon remar- riage with emphasis on the economic side of the contract. She must marry a man who can support both herself and her family. On the other hand, mere abllity to support does not nify willingness to do the same. Often foster parents are unsympathetic and disinterested. It is A matter of dlscretion to sound out the n's attitude toward his assumed obli- gations. Remarriage seldom comes early in life. It comes when judgments are as VARIETY There are fifteen different ways to serve boned chicken—at about 15 cents a portion— and every one insures a highly delicious meal.

The depend- ent woman without family who is wid- owed may take her option. When a widow remarries she must consider others in a material way. ! e ot 8 Cream of Vegetable Soup. | Cook together one cup fresh peas, two | diced carrots, one small onion, peeled and sliced, one-half cup of celery diced and a small Summer squash, Cook the | vegetables in just enough water to cover them for 20 minutes or until tender.
