No matter how old he live to be he never, never would meddle with Prickly | the Porcupine. That one small per- | son was one of the kittens of Yowler the Bobeat. He had cuffed | the hanging tail of Prickly Porky out of pure mischief. It had ended in a screech that had sent his twin sister home as fast as her legs| could take her. And it brought their | mother, Mrs Yowler, bounding in‘ rage, ready to attack whoever had | hurt her precious kitten, A perfect picture of hate and ugliness was | Mrs, Yowler when she came bound- ing to the side of her whimpering Kitten. She snarling, and of all the ugly sounds, the snarl of Mrs. Yowler is one of the ugliest. Her | ears were laid back, the hair on! her neck and back was on end, her lips were drawn so as to show the gleaming white teeth, and altogeth- er she was not at all pretty to see. The Kitten was holding up onc foot and whimpering. His mother looked to see what the trouble was. And then, fo that Kitten's great surprise, nothing happened to Prickly Porky. Instead Prickly Porky suddenly underwent a most startling chanze, That coat of his suddenly became a great, bristling mass of sharp points, and Prickly Porky began to move. le didn't run away.

Youwll have to think up something else. At any ate, we have got a respite of a few hours anyway.

MORRIS FISHBEIN Editor Journal of the American Medical Association and of Hy- gela, the Health Magazine Fatigue has been defined as the | exhaustion of strength physical work or the languar re- sulting from continued muscular strength or exercise. Other words descriptive of this condition are weariness, lassitude and exhaustion. So many factors enter into the state of tiredness that science has not vet been able to develop any definite measures for this condition any more than it has been able to determine a stand- ard of pain. Nevertheless, just as knows pain so also are all human beings familiar with the | sense of fatigue. | The physiologists who study the | changes that go on in the human body' are developing certain ex- planations which depend on the | chemical reactions that take place | in the muyscles.” When a muscle is | used, a substance called glycogen | that is stored in it is changed to lactic acid. The glycogen is formed from su- gars so that a person with insuffi- cient sugars in his diet and in his body becomes easily fatigued. More- | over, oxygen is always-used up dur- ing muscular activity as a part of | the muscle’s reaction and it has been established that the greater the oxygen debt, the longer is the process of recovery from fatigue. These chemical explanations do- not, however, completely satisfy, be- cause unquestionably the mental is related to fatigue. The their secretions have something to do with the onset of the feeling, and the accummla- tion of waste products in the body is definitely associated with fa- tigue. Speclalists in occupational Ms-‘ eases believe that one of the best signs of fatigue is a lessening of attention or increasing ease with which the person may be distracted from the work.
