When a young man begins courting on bleak, storm-swept Tristan da Cunha, 1,500 miles from Cape Town, he goes each evening to his girl's liouSe and just sits by the fire. No word of love is spoken be- tween them, but the family all know why he's there, When he has shown clearly that he really loves the girl, he gives her his weekly washing to do, If she undertakes to do it; it's a sign that she has accepted him.

Yes, and the rules apply es- pecially to: persona past middle age. Although strokes are not uncommon, before 45, the large majority, oC victim's are in the older age groupS. The primary injunctibn is to keep the blood preSsure from soaring. If it is too high: avoid excite- ment, stay home nights instead of going to parties, keep weight clown, 'get' eight hours or more sleep nightly and take time for a rest period every day. It it is normal but you are middle aged_ or older, are over- weight or have a family history of high blood pressure: have a regular 'medical checkup. A great deal can be done to avoid complications before they have a chance to develop. Strokes come without warn- ing, but the concilitiong that bring them about have been telegraphed to you lOng before.

Wet t "Your Cigarette, is going out, darling," said, the young man to his glamorous girl friend in the Paris cafe, "It doesn't matter, I'm tired of smoking," the re- plied, What she really meant was that she was tired of him, She was using the Paris cigarette code to tell a girl corn- pmaanni o wn a sitting i n de h a le -rb,yT bt he a dt g the cigarette signalled a dying ro mance. A few years ago the smart girls of Paris often exchanged views on the Men in their Coln pany by the way they handled their cigarettes. If it was a favourable impres- sion the cigarette was held be- tween two fingers and the smoke inhaled slowly, with the eyes closed. If the man concern- en. was thought to be of good family, with a healthy bank balance, the cigarette was held in the left side of the mouth. If the opposite view was taken, the cigarette would droop from the right side of the mouth. When ,the smoke was breathed in rapidly and puffed out vio- lently it meant the man was "a bad lot." Codes, simple and compli- cated, have been used through the centuries, in both war and peace, In the last war numerous codes were used by the Services, and the Royal Navy employed a special branch of ratings known as coders, to deal with this traf- fic:' British and American codes were usually difficult to crack, but as number of important' ac- tions were won by the Allies due to • the interception and breaking-down of enemy code sinals.

Codes—Simple And Complicated CLASSIFIED ADVERTISING NAM CHICKS What Is A • Stroke'? • We read or hear about Strokes almost every day and the word terrifies us. A friend or neigh- bor may be stricken, a public figure suffers One, Franklin. D. RoeseveIt died of a stroke; so did, supposedly, Russia's Stalin, New York's famous Jimmy Walker and many others, To most perSons the word means sudden, bludgeoning death—a Men or woman in the prime of life complains of a blinding headache, slumps to the floor in a coma and never awakens. Or, at best, it signi- fies a lifetime of hopeless para, lysis. This is by no means the cor- rect picture. It is true that etroke — known medically as apoplexy or cerebral accident — is the third of the Big Three killers, following heart disease and cancer, It takes nearly 170,- 000 American lives each year, which is four times as many as both diabetes and ' tuberculosis combined, But it is also true that de- spite popular misconception, the majority of victims not only survive attacks but are actually able to live normal, useful lives thereafter, writes Lester David in CORONET. Dr. Irving S. Wright, a former president of the American Heart Association and one of the na- tion's foremost authorities on heart and blood-vessel diseases, asserts: "In' a very large pro- portion of cases, individuals who have suffered strokes make complete recoveries and are able to return to .comfortable and productive life." In addition, medical science is now discovering that the, out- look for paralyzed persons is far •frona hopeless. In many centers throughout the U.S., doctors have been performing near-miracles of rehabilitation. At the New York University —Bellevue Medical Center in New York, Drs. Howard A. Rusk and Joseph G. Benton con- ducted a rigorous course of training with about 1,000 par- tially-paralyzed persons, and recently reported that fully 92 per cent were discharged from within six to eight weeks. All of these people were able to meet the needs of daily living and at least 40% of them were Capable of returning to some, form of work, gere are .eight. of the most frequently a s k e d questions about strokes, and the answers:. 1. What, actually, is a stroke? There are two main types, and each is literally an accident occurring within the brain, One form is cerebral hemor, rhage, in which an artery top- ttires, suddenly spills blood into the brain and deprives vital areas of their normal blood sup- ply. The second' form is cerebral thrombosis, or the blocking of an artery by a clot, which, also cuts off the .necessary blood supply to brain T.cells. Brain tissues cannot live more than .a few minutes without the oxygen supplied, by blood. Un- like skin, they have no power to grow back. Thus the impor- tant centers, those master switchboards which control all senses and bodily functions, break down from the abrupt stoppage, When large quantities of blood are forced into the sub- stance of the brain, as in the case of a massive hemorrhage, the delicate cells and fibres are destroyed • and death can come. within days or even hours. In *other cases, paralysis can oc- cur in varying.clegteeS of severi- ty to facial, arm and leg muscles. 2. Why does stroke cause P4rOya4.? There is a definite parallel be- tween a stroke victim and a city devastated by ''flood. When. • rampagingl. waters overrun an area, they sever communications lines — btidges collapse, tele- graph, and telephOrie wires.' are swept away, roads become im- pasaable. So, too, with the human „body when an artery breaks down or dammed - up blood pours through the' walls.-of a vessel. Communication lines — in this edit the 'nerve' pathways` leading from the .,brain . are flooded and perhaps destroyed completely by 'blood' which, has suddenly been diverted from its normal course. The severity and location of the paralysis depend on how; much of the brain has been in- jured, and Where.'

This is because tile nerve pathways cross 'over in their passage' throiigh the brain. 3. What 'are ' the immediate warning signs' of. a stroke? Many victims experience headache, dizziness, ringing in the cars, numbness of the' limb's and nausea for several'clayi br just a few minutes before the attack. 4. How can you recognize a stroke victim? If it is a cerebral hemorrhage, the individual will lose con- sciousness suddenly, in most cases complaining of a violent headache before collapsing. The face may become waxy-white, but more generally itis flushed. Breathing is labored— the lips are blown out and the cheeks flap with each expiration of air. In most cases there is definite evidence of paralysis. For ex- ample, the pupils of one eye may be more contracted than the other and the face may be lopsided. In addition, the limbs may be more rigid or loose on one side. An attack of. cerebral throm- bosis is less dramatic. The in- dividual often wakes to find an arm, leg or even an entire side useless, or there may be an un- explained difficulty in speaking. It is possible that the patient will gradually lapse into a co- ma. 5. What first aid measures should you take for a stroke victim? Summon a doctor, of course; and gently — very gently — turn the patient on his back and raise his head and shoulders on pillows or a folded coat. Loosen the clothing about his neck and chest. Don't try to rouse the patient. Don't carry him upstairs and put him to bed. Any but the slightest movements may in- crease the escape of blood com- ing from the ruptured vessel 6. Are strokes always major, dramatic attacks?
