t “Tired Feeling’? Just “Nerves”! Outwit Them and Stop Worrying Advises Dr. Josephine A. Jackson Consult Physician First, Then, if No Demonstrable Disease Is Found, Shake Yourself, Get an En- © thusiasm, and Memorize Catechism Given in This Article—Nature Will Do the Rest if You Give Her a Chance. By Marguerite Mooers Marshall * Generigat, 1921, by the Prees Publishing Co, (The New York Evening Worl.) ‘FAVE you got that tired feeling which at this time of year especially —when vacation is so near and yet so far—makes most of us hate our jobs, our families, our lives? ‘Then cheer up, stop worrying and get an enthusiasm—for the anti- Prohibition parade, for the clothes you will take away on your vacation, for something or anything that will Bensations of fatigue. keep you from thinking about your Before you know it, the sensations will be gone, f@nd you can go off on your holidays ready to have a good time and not merely to “rest.” ‘That is the invigorating message of Pr, Bosephine A.

Galisbury, is likely to prove @ boon foo many readers of this nerve-racked generation, Dr. Jackson, frankly a believer in the theory and practice of the new science of psycho-analysis, takes middle ground between thoso frritatingly superior persons who shoo off nervous sufferers with the ebvious remark that their troubles JST nerves''—as if they didn’t know it!—and those other practi- tioners who coddle the nervous oman until she is convinced that er. misbehaving nervous system is the most thrilling and interesting fhing in life and that normality Is B® state to. be scorned. Dr. Jackson says, in effect, that fervous troubles cause plenty of uine suffering, even if there is no ganic disorder;” yet that the way to cure them is not to pamper them but to forget them and redirect one’s energies toward other things. For example, take what is perhaps the most widespread of nervous kinks, “that tired feeling.” “Fatigue,” the doctor points out, Me a safety device of nature to keep us within safe limits, but it is a de- vice toward which we must not be- come too eensitive. As a rule it makes us stop long before the danger nt is reached, If we fail into the it of watching its first signals, fhey may easily become so insistent thet they monopolize attention. At- tention increases any sensation, s- Pecially if colored by fear. “He Tho learns to take his fatigue losophically, as a natural and jasu phenomenon which will Boon disappear if ignored, ts Nkely to find himself possessed of exceptional strengt! wh.

Whore- ever it has helped a nervous patient, the real curative agent has been the Personality of the doctor and the pa- fient’s faith in him. People suffer- ing from ‘nervous exhaustion’ are likely to be just as ‘tired’ after a month in bed as they were before. ‘Why not?

If he tells you that you have neither tuberculosis, heart trouble, Bright’s disease, nor any other demonstrable disease, that you are physically fit and ‘merely nervous’ give yourself a good shake ‘and commit the following paragraphs to.memory,” prescribes Dr. Jackson. ‘And here ts her “catechism for the ‘weary one:” WHAT?

Courtship and Marriage By Betty Vincent. ® O young people who have been lovers and then broken off ever feel quite the same if they re- new their friendship? This is a question which “A Con- Stant Reader” asks, and I presuine this same question has arisen in the hearts of many. Now it seems to me that the old saying about absence making the heart grow fonder ap- plies very well here, and if two people truly love each other a separation of this sort ought to greatly strengthen their love. Time is a great tester of the human heart, and if young people feel that things are not the same after a separation it rather looks as if they never experienced the real arrow of love. This particular young lady writes: Dear Miss Vincent—About s' month: a0 an old friend of m claims that he tion to marry and has declared himself, desiring me to say ‘Yes.’ But somehow | cannot feel the same way, toward him.

ELINOR VAN BUSKIRK And Here’s Cheer for Husbands—American Women Are Wearing Their Shoes Larger and Larger! By Fay Stevenson. Conyright, 1921, by the Pras Publishing Oo, (The New York Drening World.) ILL women be better pals and wives when they wear larger shoes? Will breadth of shoe denote breadth of mind? A despatch from London says that the Englishwoman’s foot is growing larger and, according to London boot- makers, women wiho used to wear No. 4 now wear No. 5 shoes, and soon will wear 63 and 7s. They attribute the development to her growing addic- tion to golf, tennis and other sports. One of New York's largest shoe manufacturers declares that, despite the fact that skirts are up to the knees and most women inclined to cramp their feet for street appear- ance and dances, nevertheless every woman who buys a pair of shoes which are too small immediately buys @ larger pair for country walking, tennis, golf or running her motor. “There is no doubt about it, women are wearing larger shoes," said the manufacturer. “The average girl, that is the one who is tall and broad shouldered, calls for a No. 6 shoe and many ask for No. 6 and 7.
