Heeds no policeman's call, but MAY 1, 1922, At What Age Should You Take Needless Risks With Your Health? Is that a queer question? Then many people are doing a quecr thing -and often it turns out to be a serious thing. The Federal Bureau of Education says in its rules for the health of school children that children should not drink coffee or tea. This rule is based on the well- known fact that the drug éle- nent in coffee and tea whips up the nerves, and that serious ills often follow. 3 If it's a good rule for children to keep away from the harm of nerve-stimulation, isn’t it a good rule for everybody? Think it over. Granted that your body may stand more, can your judgment afford to risk more? Any doctor can tell you what coffee and tea often do to the health of adults as well gs children. There’s no sacrifice in being safe, Postum is a delightful, satisfying mealtime beverage, wholesome and pleasant alike for adults and children. Postum has no age limits! Your grocer has both forms of Postum: Instant Postum (in tins) made instantly in the cup by the addition of boiling water.

Families, used to feel it a terrible stigma. if .any of their kin was considered “a little bit off,” as the saying went, But thousands of such people now go voluntarily to tree dispensaries “for nervous and mental disorders.” Last year 3,585 persons in New York state made 9,969 visits to the 40 such clinics conducted throughout the state. Only five or six years ago such a thing was unknown, according to officials of the State Charities Aid association, which is co-operating ip the wark. Tuberculosis Drops. This organization, pointing to sta- tistics which show the tuberculosis death rate dropped about 34 per cent from 1907, when the organized fight on the white plague began, to 1920, expects to show the same results in its battle against insanity. The war and the business depres- sion that has followed caused a con- siderable increase in mental disorders, Aid association officials declared. They have found, however, that serious worries and diseases are not the only waves that shove the mind off an even keel. Some people become un- balanced by too much recreation, just as others skid from the path of san- ity because of overwork and domestic unhappiness. What the association intends to do is popularize information concerning the causes, treatment and prevention of mental disorders generally. It con- tends that 40 per cent of the 40,000 persons in Néw York state who are now under treatment in asylums and hospitals for feeble-minded could have been savd from such a fate if the proper preventive measures had been taken in time. It feels that since the asylums of the country have a greater enrollment than the colleges, the people ought to be taught to have |themselves examined by competent physiclans if they feel queer, or if acquaintances so consider them. The most hopeful sign for cutting down insanity is in the attitude of parents and teachers toward children, in the belief of the Aid association. “If we help the queer chil- dren, we will have fewer queer grown-ups in the future,” one official said. Often the youngsters who are back- th r- 70 ¥ r- e- nt es ic t- nd Dy th AU r- U= 0- r- their tonsiis or adenoids removed, the doctors have found. But others have complexes, inhibitions, and a neurosis or two fretting their young minds. In this connection, it was sajd that some of the doctors at the state hospitals make use of psychoanalysis, while others do not believe in it. Patients lupon consultation often are told what to stop worrying about, and field agents go around to see how they are getting along. Others are discovered to be worse off than ‘“merely nervous’ as they most often describe their own condition, and occasionally these have to be sent to an institution. Cultivate Health.
