BUSINESS PROFESSIONAL WOMEN'S. INITIATION Cooking's Fun Doc Nervous Exhaustion Cases Need Treatment A recent letter from Mrs. C.

asks for an article on "nervous exhaustion." She also asks what can be done for it besides trying to improve the general and whether it is likely to recur. Nervous exhaustion is a rather loose name commonly given when someone has been under emotional strain for a prolonged period and shows mental or emotional changes from "normal" behavior. Other names of a simillar sort are "nervous breakdown," tension" and the like. Regardless of the name attached to the mental or emotional difficulty, the most important problem (as is true for other human ailments) is to identify if possible what is causing the trouble and how severe the symptoms produced by it really are. CERTAINLLY SOME mental or emotional disorders are at least partially caused by the.

pressures of modern life, the great tensions under which so of us seem to live today in our rapidly moving society. Since there is not much we can do about the strains in the worlc around us, we have to learn to adjust to them as best we can. In the milder cases, recovery is more likely to occur more rapidly than in a severe and long-lasting one which may reflect true mental disease. There are many lines of treatment. Mental treatment, (psychotherapy), rest, physical therapy, including hot or cold baths, handwork, shock treatments and certain drugs are often helpful and have brought thousands back to normal.

ALTHOUGH much still has to be learned about prevention and treatment of the various kinds of mental diseases, progress is already far advanced and even better results can be expected in the future. Many suffer mental illness, recover and find themselves quite normal again. Lots of those who have gone away for a while with a "nervous breakdown" come beck entirely restored to health. Family, friends and neighbors should always be careful not to criticize someone suffering emo- or mentally. One does not criticize a person who suffers Tom a heart attack or an accident; the victim of a "nervous or mental disorder is Steamed Puddings Are Hearty, Thrifty OLD-FASHIONED KITCHENS never let a winter pass without sturdy puddings steaming away in big kettles.

Cover kettle; steam to 2 hours. Replenish boiling water, if necessary, during steaming.

We suggest covering the closed pudding mold with aluminum foil to prevent the water that collects on the cover of the steamer dropping down on the cover of the mold. Pudding molds are usually filled from one-half to two-thirds full to allow for expansion of the batter. by Dorothy Holcomb and the treasurer's account by Frances Miller.
