iWriters’ Cramp Common Symptom of Muscular Rebellion
PAIN SPASMS OFTEN
DUE TO OCCUPATION
“Muscular Neuroses” Is the Medical Term for This
Trouble, Differing from Neuritis and Caused by
Monotonous Efforts Required in Daily Tasks.
By ROYAL S. COPELAND, M. D.
W United States Senator from New York.
Former Commissioner of Health, New York City.
THESE muscles of ours have a habit of rebelling against continued
wrong use made of them. They are patient, but if the demands
are too great they will speak out in meeting.
In the medical books we read about “occupational neuroses.”
What in the world are these?
They are the spasms or localized pains which
follow abuse of the muscles. One example is
the condition called “writer’s cramp.”
Telegraph operators, piano players, dress
makers, typists are liable to these symptoms. In
any occupation where long continued, monoto
nous muscular efforts are required in the work
one of these ailments may appear.
Persons who have good health are not liable
to have such trouble. Nervous people—what we
call “neurotic” persons—are more likely to suf
fer these attacks.
The onset of writer’s cramp is marked by
dull ache or tired feeling in the wrist and hand.
Then there is a spasm of marked contraction of
the muscles of the arm and wrist.
DR. COPELAND There will probably be trembling of the hand
and fingers. All the symptoms are made very
much worse by attempting to work.
This trouble is different from neuralgia or neuritis. There is no
tenderness on pressure. The nerves are not at all sensitive. But, as
1 have said, every effort to use the muscles in their ordinary occupa
non. win nring on me symptoms, or
make them much worse.
The cure is accomplished by pro
longed rest. Nothing else will do
more than to give temporary relief.
Massage, baking, out-of-door life, lots
©f rest and sleep, and upbuilding of
the general health will do wonders.
But rest or change of work is essen
tial.
I wish we could get people to take
care of themselves. Of course our
social system is eo defective that
thousands of men and women are
forced to work long hours, under
evil conditions. The bread and but
ter problem mates It necessary to
Work hour after hour, and, in con
sequence, the nervaus system cracks
©r breaks.
When we get wiser as a people
and show better sense as Individuals,
the occupational neurosis will dis
appear. But alas! that joyful day is
not here. It will corns, but. in the
meantime, we must do the best we
can with those who suffer the ef
fects of overwork and overworry.
‘‘Change of work Is play," is an
old saying and a true one. Those
unfortunate persons who have a ten
.dency to such cramps as I have
described, should keep this saying
1 mind. Frequent periods of change
I muscular effort will hslp to pre
nt the onset of this trouble.
If you taave actually developed
writer’s cramp or any similar ail
ment, there most be complete rest.
Every attention to the upbuilding of
nerves and health are necessary.
Perfect nourishment of the body
will prevent and help to cure the
ailment. Foods must be well selected.
The green vegetables and other
vitamin carrying foods are impor
tant.
An ounce of prevention Is worth a
pound of cure. Why don't we keep
this In mind? If we did, the doctors
would be out of business. Too many

All this unpleasantness can be
avoided by preparing your defence

wait for the warmest weather. By
that time the baby worm may have
hatched out of the egg, laid in a nice

the auguries. Peculiar, subtle, in

►ible to the naked eye, so that even
if a garment appears clean it may
be the shelter of a moth family. A
complete and strenuous brushing is
the first step in insuring against
a moth Invasion. Without it, other
later processes may not prove effec
tive.
Next, pack the cleaned garment
in a paper clothes bag, or fold in a
newspaper. The paper *you use
doesn’t matter. What is important,
is to pin or seal the hag so
! thoroughly that there isn’t a crack
or hole or exposed 6«am that will
let la anything from the outside.
Then place in a cedar chest, If
you have one, or In a box with a
liberal sprinkling of camphor or
moth balls.
As a convenience, paste a label
oa every package marked with the

after it has been packed away, you
won’t have to open several before
finding the right one. (Or succumb
to the temptation of making a lit

other just for a peep—then leave the
"hole, and destroy all the good pack
ing done so conscientiously!)
Some of our modern apartments
and homes now contain at least one
cedar-lined closet that is a perma
nent protection against moths. An
other substitute plan, is to obtain
on© of the portable clothing closets
that can be left in some cool spot
in the house. Line it with tar
paper and hang in it the packed
clothes that are to be stored for
the Winter. Such a closet can be
kept permanently closed, and pro
tects your clothes almost perfectly.
Incidentally, rugs apd carpets also
require proper defence against in

their own—the carpet beetle or
"Buffalo bug’’ which is as fond of
cotton as of rugs. Carpets and rugs
require the same treatment — a
thorough cleaning, packing and seal
ing, and storing in a cool place, in
a strong aroma of camphor or moth
balls. If you haven’t the space for
giving proper care to rugs or car
pets, it’s cheaper to store outside
with a reliable commercial firm,
than risk exposure of good rugs to
moth-holes.

Perhaps she patronizes some of
the same theatres that I do! I
wouldn't be forever making rotten
puns and expecting her to think
them funny. Just because I once
heard someone say: “That fellow
ought to go on the stage—he’s a
born comedian,’’ I wouldn't cherish
the secret belief that I was funnier
than all the great comedians all
rolled into one.
It’s all right to get off a wise
crack occasionlly—provided, it’s a
good one—but it’s too much to ex

permanent audience to an amateur
clown.

For a girl to flirt with men sit

is a cheap way for her to demon

It only indicates how lacking she
is in breeding and good taste.
When a man took me out to din

failing in that, at least, on the food
he provided. When I went to a
dance, I wouldn’t flirt with every
man on the floor
and have no
giinces to spare
for the man who
had brought me.
In the theatre, I
would keep my
eyes fixed on
the stage and,
between acts, on
my escort. The
girl with a rov
ing eye is a
man's idea of a
pretty poor
sport. There’s a
code for everything—even flirtation.
When a girl goes on a man-hunt,
she ought to have the decency to
hunt alone, Instead of dragging a

PASTE BLEACH FOR
SUPERFLUOUS HAIR
No Excuse for Having Unsightly Hair Showing
Through Silken Hose, Says Miss Huddleston,
Suggesting a Safe and Sane Method of Removal.
By JOSEPHINE HUDDLESTON
NATURE has provided a light down on the skin of children to
serve as a protection against harsh winds and the heat of the
sun. As one grows older this down often becomes coarse and
thick, thus an otherwise clear skin is marred by superfluous hair.
The newer ‘‘light ray” treatments for its re
moval are gaining an enviable position in beauty
culture.
The appearance of legs and arms covered
with superfluous hair is unforgivable, since it
is within the power of every woman to devote
two minutes each day to the task of safely and
sanely removing such beauty destroying ele
ments.
If the growth actually is thin, but appears
abundant because of its dark color, a bleach will
serve the purpose of making it less conspicuous.
As most liquids dry before their bleaching prop
erties have a chance to perform their full duty,
I’m going to give a, formula today for making a
paste bleach that may be used with effective
results.
To two tablespoonfuls of peroxide and one- Je,ephin« Huddle»ton
half teaspoonful of household ammonia, add suf
ficient chalk of magnesia to make a light, creamy paste. Using soap
and warm water (not hot), cleanse and dry the skin. Spread the

remain on for eight or ten minutes. Remove with cool water and pat
Advice to Girls
By ANNIE LAURIE
Dear annie laurie:
1. Would it be proper for me
to give a gift to a boy friend of
mine on his birthday? He gave
me a beautiful birthday and
Christmas present.
2. He has invited me to a college
"prom” but as the school is quite
a distance from this city I will
have to stay overnight. Would
this be proper without taking a
chaperon with me?
I am mostly known as "The Life
of Every Party,” but I can be
that way or just the opposite.
How would you advise me to act
at the "prom”?
_ BROWN EYES.
BROWN EYES: Yes, it would be
proper. However, it would not
be in good taste to give a very ex
pensive gift. 2. It would be beat to
have a chaperon, unless you are to
stay somewhere where you will be
chaperoned. 3. Act naturally. Don’t
try to make yourself conspicuous,
but enjoy yourself and act in euch
a manner that the young man will
be proud of you.
Dear annie laurie:
Won’t you please tell me
what to wear to a June prom
dance? PATIENTLY WAITING.
PATIENTLY WAITING: It would
be rather difficult to advise you
what to wear, my dear, as I do not
know your size and type. If you
will write me again telling me more
about yourself. I shall be glad to
help you.
► liio bun u-i y.
This pasts bleach may be used as
often as necessary- Should the skin
become dry from the continued use
of the pas'e, a light cream may be
rubbed gently over the area at night.
The treatment of the coarse thick
and dark hair is a more difficult
problem. Shaving makes the new
growth of hair stiff and more con
spicuous. But like all beauty ills,
even this problem can be combated
safely.
First remove all the superfluous
hair from the legs and arms by shav
ing. Then rinse the skin in cool
water and rub a light cream over
the newly shaved area. That is al
ways the start and if results are to
be satisfactory, the following care
must be given at least every second,
and preferably each day.
All that is necessary for the daily
treatment is a piece of raw pumice
stone which has been soaked in a
glass of water for three days. Each
day AFTER getting into the tub (so
that the skin is wet), run the pumice
lightly over the hairy area. Don’t
he alarmed if the skin becomes a
little pink, as the slight change in
color is caused by the rapidly in
creased circulation due to the brush
ing, therefore it is only a temporary
reaction.
Keep the pumice stone handy so
that the daily task is not forgotten.
You will be especially delighted with
the results after you consider this
treatment part of the bath, for it
really takes less time than any
other method.
What the pumice really does is
to wear down the new growth as
soon as it appears. The rubbing
should he no more vigorous than
when a bath or flesh brush is used.
Either talcum powder or cold
cream may be used on the skin after
the treatment.

Noel Adds to the Apprehension with News That the Thugs
Live Nearby.
AT Noel’s revelatiion that he
had seen the man who had
tried to get into Mary’s room.
Harry Underwood was also on his
feet.
“Are you sure, boy?” he queried
sharply. “Tell us, quickly.
“There couldn’t be two such men
looking like that, could there?” Noel
Veritzen asked. “Rat-like face, you
said, sandy hair, partly grey, strag
gling over it, and a scar like a
comma, deep in one cheek? I’ve seen
a man like that."
“Then you’ve seen the devil him
self," Mr. Underwood rejoined.
"Where? When?"
“A couple of days ago when I was
out riding with Eleanor—I mean
Princess Olina,” he said, flushing.
“She always likes to go through the
wood roads, and of course they are
much better than the automobile
highways. It was one of those wind
ing roads that lead out toward Shin
necock, and there was a shack of a
house almost hidden in the woods
that looked as if nobody lived there.
But sitting on the steps were three
men, and one of them jumped up
when he saw us and ran around
back of the house. But we caught a
good look at him, and the Princess
exclaimed at the awful scar on his
face. I’d know him again anywhere.
Couldn’t we go there, and makesure
of capturing the man?”
Harry Underwood looked at him
with kindly and sympathetic admira
tion of his pluck, but shook his head.
“My dear boy,” he said, “wherever
that bird and his companions are,
they’re many miles away from that
shack. They’re too wise to leave
open any trail like that.”
“Do you mean you think they’ve
left the island?” Noel asked hope
fully.
Hiding Places Everywhere.
Again Mr. Underwood made a
negative sign.
“I wish I could believe that,” he
said, “but the lads who belong to
Kenellos don’t give up so easily as
that. Unfortunately there are enough
law-breaking, boot-legging aliens In
the sparsely settled parts of this end
of the island to give them a hundred
safe shelters.”
“Then,” Noel asked fearfully,
“isn’t it going to be a hard task to
gxiard all three, Mary—and Olina
and Georges—when they’re ail in

space out here?”
"You’ve put your finger on the
sore place, Noel,'* Mr. Underwood
returned. “ ‘Hard’ isn’t the word.
‘Impossible* would be better. Oh," as
he saw the alarm in Noel’s face. “I
don’t mean Just now. ever/body's
safe for the next few days—they’re
too cagey to take eny risks—those
lads, but they have infinite patience,
and determination, steeled by what
will happen to them if they fail, so
they’re going to try again at the
first opportunity.”
"Then what’s to be done?" Noel
demanded in youthful impatience,
flushed a brick red as Mr. Under
wood turned mildly quizzical eyes
upon him.
“That’s what I'm trying to figure
out, son," he said softly, and Noel
put no more questions.
“There's another thing we’ve got
to consider,” he said. “As long as
Mary is here, the farmhouse isn't
going to be a very safe place for
anybody.”
My terrified thoughts flew to my
small eon, sleeping upstairs, and I
shivered. But Mr. Underwood paid
no attention, and I realized that he
deliberately had added this fear to
my anxiety for Mary—for some rea
son of his own.
Planning an Exodus.
“When is your father expected?”
He turned to me.
"Any day now,” I returned. "He
said in his last letter he would be at
home some time this week.”
“ ‘Oh, let it be soon’ ” he quoted,
then turned to Noel.
“Do you know when Princess
Olina’s lease of The Larches is up?
Not that it matters—although she
may be fussy—you never can tell
about women—some of them, I
mean." His bow and amile absolved
Lillian and me from his strictures.
“There is no set time, I believe,”
Noel answered. “She took the place
for the season, and s/he can stay as
long as she likes or leave whenever
6he pleases.”
“Good!” Mr. Underwood replied.
“And as for Prince Gogeree, he has
no responsibility except his hotel bill
and the hospital charges, neither of
which, I imagine, will bother him.
So there’ll be nothing to hinder the
baiting of the tiger trap.”
I looked at him in amazement.
What did he mean?

The Shadow - Children Pay a

Mandarin.
ONE day MIJ, Flor, Hanid, Tam
and Knarf—the five little
shadow-children with the
turned about names—were sitting on
the edge of a teacup, talking about
where they would like to go.
“I wish we could go to Algeria,**
said Yam.
“That's too near,” said Mij. “I ;
wish we could go to the South Pole.”
“—right to the top of the South

“It's too cold there. I think we

suddenly falling off the teacup in
his excitement. He dropped into a
Chinese plate that was lying cn the
table. Then a very curious thing
happened. He disappeared. Now. to
disappear all at once in a Chinese
plate is extraordinary even for a
shadow-child. With a cry of surprise
Mij. Flor, Hanid and Yam sprang
down off the cup and looked down
into the plate. It was light blue and
in the centre was a lovely Chine«se
garden with flowers and grass and a
little river with a bridge over it and
a house and cherry trees in blossom.
But no trace of Knarf did they see.
They leaned over the plate and
looked and looked. Then suddenly
Yam, who was leaning over farther
than the rest, toppled in. Then she,
too, disappeared, although not before
the others saw a tiny dark speck roll
swiftly down the road, over the hill 1
and into the little house. j
“W*hat ought we to do?” asked !
Hanid anxiously. Flor looked puzzled.
Mij looked even more puzzled. ;
“Let's call them.’* suggested

"Come back quick,” shouted MIJ,
But they didn't. They didn't even

"Something must have happened

"Something did happen to them,*

"They disappeared," said Hanid

“I’ll take a peek first,” said Mij.
He grasped Flor’s hand and lei
himself down very slowly. "Don’t lei

touched the tips of the grass in the
little Chinese garden. “I won’t," Flor
assured him. Hardly had the words
left his mouth when Mij abruptly
rolled off, exactly like the others.
Nor was this all. Flor holding on to
him, as he promised, rolled off, too.
This left poor Hanid all alone. She
ran around the edge of the plate, ex
citedly calling to the others. Just
then, Inda, the maid, walked in.
Hanid shouted up to her. "They’ve
disappeared.” she cried, at the top of
her voice, “—they’ve disappeared in

But Inda, who wasn’t accustomed
to hearing shadows speak, and was, j
moreover, busy getting the table

after the others. She found herself
rolling swiftly down the road, over
the bridge, and before she could stop
herself, into the little house near
the cherry-trees. There, to her as

you know, is a Chinese person cl 1
very exalted rank. The mandarin
pointed to a vacant chair at tha
table.
"It is for you," he said to Hanid,
"We have been waiting a very long

nodded in agreement. But they didn’t
seem at all annoyed that Hanid had
