Care During Pregnancy

• \

Ay H N.JBUXDESEN. M. D. Th# child-bearing time is oft-

All an anxious one for the moth­er-to-be and yet, if she under­s tands the facts about her con* dition. her tear can quickly be relieved. For this reason. Doc­tor Leonard H. Biskmd of Cleve­land has outlined answers to questions which frequently con­cern mothers at this time.

The process of child-bearing ordinarily begins with pains either in the lower back or across the abdomen. The pains may often be like those which occur at the regular periods in some women. The first pains come on at irregular intervals for several hours, the intervals ranging from 10 to '10 minutes or more, gradually the inter­vals get shorter while the pains last longer and are more severe.

• Wm&m Labor Occasionally, during the last

month of the child-bearing time the mother-to-be will have pains in her back and abdomen, which strongly suggest that the birth of the baby is about to occur. However, after several hours, these 'pains usually' disappear. Such pains are called false labor pains, - * »

The mother-to-be should be prepared to go to the hospital when the pains have been oom-

" i n g at five to eight minute in­tervals for a period of one to two hours, particularly with the first baby. On the average, with. the first baby, the period of de­livery usually lasts from 12 to 94 hours, but with subsequent babies the period is shortened to six to 12. hours and often less.

Tub Baths Taboo During the last months of

pregnancy the use of tub baths is inadvisable. Shower or sponge bathing is preferred, but care must be taken in the shower to Keep from falling. It is a good plan also when the pains begin, to avoid eating since an anes­thetic to put the mother-to-be So sleep is often used during tha delivery, and by not eating, vomiting can be warded off.

Various types of preparations are used for pain relief. The phy­sician of course, will decide in each case what preparation may be best employed without en­dangering either the mother or the infant. A new method of pain relief oalled caudal anal* gesia is being »sed in many cases MI recent months.

Many patients, also, a re given •n injection of vitamin K upon admission to the hospital. This la the vitamin which kelps to lessen the dangers of excessive bleeding, and also aids hi pre­venting the bleeding into the brain of the baby.

Another good thing so remem­ber is that it is not a good pktn to h a t e too many visitors while in the hospital sinoe they create much confusion and interfere with the patient's aart . j

SHADOWLAND ADVENTURE

By MAX TKKLJL One day Knarf, the shadow-

boy with the turned-about name, . brought three of his friends into

the house. One was a grass­hopper, the second was a field mouse, the third was a snail. They had never been inside a real house before and they were all three very curious a,bout it.

"I'll show you around," said Knarf. "Houses are very useful things. People live in them all the time."

"So do snails," said the snail. "I live in my own house and what 's more, I xcarry it around with me wherever I go. Do the

i people in this house carry* it around with them wherever they go?"

Knarf shook his head. "This house is too heavy. It stays in one place all the time. People move but the houses don't. Houses have % roof, walls to make rooms, and a cellar. We'll start with the cellar."

•That 's a very good idea," re-. marked the field mouse. "I've

heard a lot about cellars. My cousin lives in a cellar."

Star t for Cel lar They "started down for the

cellar. The field mouse got to the bottom of the steps first, the grasshopper got there next* and the snail got there last of all. "I don't think houses should have more than one floor," he said. "What good is a cellar any­how?"

Knarf explained that the cel­lar was for storing things. Also the furnace was in the cellar to give heat ' and hot water. Sud­denly they noticed that the field mouse had disappeared under the woodbin. It took quite a lot of calling before he consented to come out again. "I just found my cousin," the field mouse said. • "This is the cellar he lives in."

Next, Knarf took them to the children's playroom. The grass­hopper wag delighted with the toys, especially the Jack-in-the-box. "He jumps the way I do— only I can jump higher and fur­ther than h e can. I didn't know people liked jumping things."

"Oh yes," replied Knarf. "and the children who live here jump up and down all day long. The happier they are, the more they jump. You should see them jump rope. And the first thing they do in the morning is to jump—yes, they jump right out of bed."

Knarf s h o w e d them the dining-room, the bed-rooms and finally the attic. All in all, though they all Hked the house, none of them wanted to stay and live in it.

Field Mouse Speaks "Even though my cousin >s

vet y happy in the cellar, he still has ais troubles with the cat. I'd rather live out in the field. The cat never comes .there, there are never any traps, and there is always plenty to eat."

"If only grass grew on the floor instead of carpets." the grasshopper sighed. "I know I wouldn't be happy unless I had grass to jump on."

The snail was quite definite about not staying in the house. "I've got my own house to live m. There wouldn't be any sense moving into this house if I've got my own."

However, as Knarf said later to his sisrter Hanid: "I'm glad I showed them the house. It made them happier that they could go on living outside it."

KEEP IN TRIM:

Cut Calories For Cool Dtet

By IDA JEAN RAIN Summer simmers on . . . and

it doesn't help us feel anyv cool­er to read the report cooked up by the weather man! He goes from hot to humid with vague promises of relief. Boiled down, all we can get out of It is that the heat wave will positively continue until it's cooler! But,? cold days are coming, because further down the page we read that coal and fuel oil will be scarce next winter.

Ah well, move over in the breeze of the electric fan and we'll talk a cool diet, Someone wants to know the scientific facts on whether a hot beverage or an iced beverage is the most cooling. It all depends on the humidity. The body goes on generating heat i n t e rna l ly - - I t the same rate. In summer the idea is to get rid of the h e a t Perspiring is one way* of getting rid of the heat generated. So, on a hot day, when the air is dry, a hot beverage which in­duces perspiration is actually cooling. Drinking hot tea to cool off is an old Chinese cus­tom. But, on a hot humid day, conditions do not favor °rapid evaporation of perspir^ygjj and . a hot beverage or hot soup leave you in a stew. On that kind of day, a cold beverage, which takes body heat to warm it, will help to carry away body heat. But the Health Department warns ' against gulpinjf down large quantities of iced bever­ages when you are feeling the heat. Neither too cold nor too fast is the rule. *

Of ^course calories must be ac­counted for, too. A calorie is a

• heat unit. That: is, calories are fuel. A cup of hot tea or clear coffee contain no heat units, and are ultimately less heating than a chocolate frosted or a tall glass of iced coffee with a liberal amount of cream and sugar, A beverage which contains a couple of hundred calories must even­tually either he burned as energy or stored as fat. It 's all fuel

As you may gather, too many cold drinks, loaded with calories, whether the drinks are stimulat­ing or otherwise are the chief reason many people add un­wanted pounds in summer. In fact, ea,ch fall I get letters from complaining patrons who say that in spite of the fact that I promised it would be easy to melt off pounds in summer, they have gained—a liquid diet to the contrary. Well, you can drink just as many calories as you can eat. If I haven't made- this crystal-clear, it's the heat!

There It still another month of the kind of weather when it's easy to melt off a dozen pounds, and cool off with a calorie cut. The Summer Slimming Menus are built around the protective foods, but are cooling, for the

.calories are restricted to slight­ly under 1.000 a day. Since will power tends to get limp in hot weather, there is a diet tip a day to keep you on the beam.

By GENEVIEVE KEHBl E For Thursday, August 2

Lunar directions show a won derful opportunity for putting over ambitious programs for expanding and attaining in very much desired directions. Initia­tive and well-directed energies should combine with utmost discretion and strategy to pro­mote advanced goals, in spite of errors, mistakes, fraud and misconstruction. However, there are subtle undercurrents or in­trigue* in connection with pow­erful personages or corpora­tions, ready to stand by with substantial support or counsel. Sing all writings with caution, and oe not carried away by im­pulse or over-enthusiasm in all affairs, *•

If It la Your Birthday Those whose birthday it is

niay encounter a year of oppor­tunity for establishing new projects of high magnitude and long-range expansion and scope. There will be sufficient energy and initiative to put over major propositions, or new ventures, with aggressive and construc­tive force, and with the endorse­ment or solid cooperation of In­fluential persons or corpora­tions, where strategy or secret agreements are suitable, but in ail contracts or ^agreements, be prudent, vigilant and shrewd where writings and documents may leave loopholes for fraud, treachery and misconstruction.

A child 'born on this day will have lofty ambitions and meri­torious objectives, with ability to put them over constructively if it will keep alert to fraud and falsification ol facts Involved,
