Q: Can you tell me what Patricia Richardson has been up to lately? I loved her on “Home Improvement” and “The West Wing,” but I haven’t seen her in anything lately. -- Joy T., via email A: Everyone’s favorite TV mom, Patricia has been easing back into acting now that her children are off to college. I spoke with her recently to discuss a cause that is close to her heart: bringing awareness to rare diseases. In Patricia 2005, Patricia lost her Richardson father to progressive supranuclear palsy, a neurodegenerative brain disease that has no known cause, treatment or cure. Now she is doing all she can to raise awareness of the disease and money toward finding the cure, partnering with the National Organization of Rare Disorders. (Go to psp.org for more info.)

In regard to acting, Patricia is ready to jump back in with both feet. She told me: “I’ve started doing theater again. I’ve done three Hallmark movies in the last year, and that’s been good for me, to have the chance to get in front of a camera and feel comfortable again. I’m coming around to where I’m starting to feel like, ‘Oh yeah, now I remember why I liked this.’ My kids are doing really well, so I feel good about [my choice to step back from acting].

I’m very lucky, and I’ve been really blessed.”

••• Q: I read that Amy Poehler is going to be in another NBC comedy. If that’s true, what will happen with “Parks and Rec”? -- George D., Harrisburg, Pa. A: Don’t’ worry: Amy isn’t leaving “Parks and Rec.” She’ll be producing a yet-untitled comedy for the Peacock Network that will star Natasha Lyonne (“Orange Is the New Black”) and will center on Natasha’s character, who works as an aide to a group of senior citizens while she tries to find herself.

••• Q: I read some time ago that Morgan Freeman had divorced his wife in order to marry his step-granddaughter. Is this true? -- Pauline L., via email A: This was just another horrible Hollywood rumor, which as a rule I stay away from, but this rumor is one that needs to be cleared up. The answer is a resounding no, with Morgan releasing this statement: “The recent reports of any pending marriage or romantic relationship of me to anyone are defamatory fabrications from the tabloid media designed to sell papers.”

••• Q: Will “Dracula” be back for a second season?

-- Richard R., via email A: As of this writing, NBC has not announced a renewal decision. If the show does get renewed, then I will start watching it. I’ve been disappointed so often in the past, where I get involved with a show only for it to be canceled -- “FlashForward,” “The Gates,” “GCB” -- that I am now more cautious about committing to a new series.

• On March 30, 1775, hoping to keep the New England colonies dependent on the British, King George III endorses the New England Restraining Act. The Act required New England colonies to trade exclusively with Great Britain. An additional rule would come into effect banning colonists from fishing in the North Atlantic.

• On March 28, 1814, the funeral of Guillotin, namesake of the infamous execution device, takes place outside of Paris. When first used, the crowds seemed to miss the gallows, but the guillotine quickly caught on. The device symbolized equality, as it was used on both commoners and the nobility alike.

• On March 27, 1912, in Washington, D.C., Helen Taft, wife of President William Taft, and the Viscountess Chinda, wife of the Japanese ambassador, plant two Yoshina cherry trees on the northern bank of the Potomac River. The event was held in celebration of a gift by the Japanese government of 3,020 cherry trees to the United States.

• On March 26, 1920, “This Side of Paradise” is published, immediately launching 23-year-old F. Scott Fitzgerald to fame and fortune. While in Europe, Fitzgerald finished his masterpiece “The Great Gatsby” (1925). He also published dozens of short stories in his lifetime.

• On March 24, 1958, Elvis Presley is inducted into the U.S. Army after being granted a two-month deferment to finish his third movie, “King Creole.” While stationed in Germany, Presley met his future wife, 14-year-old Priscilla Beaulieu.

• Those who study such things claim that more Jell-O is eaten in Utah than anywhere else in the world.

• W.H. Auden was already a celebrated poet when he left Great Britain for America in 1939. His admirers on the other side of the Atlantic, therefore, may have been surprised that when he arrived in the U.S. he moved into a run-down house in Brooklyn Heights with roommates ranging from novelist Carson McCullers to composer Benjamin Britten to stripper Gypsy Rose Lee. • The state of Colorado is named (unsurprisingly) after the Colorado River.

Q: I recently purchased a Manophone, a type of spring-wound phonograph that was manufactured by the Music Master of Phonegraphs company, probably during the 1920s. I paid $400 and wonder if I overpaid. I also need to find needles for the machine. -Dan, Bethalto, Ill. A: I’m not familiar with your model, but spring-wound machines seem to be selling in the $300 to $500 range, depending on the make, model and condition. For needles, call the Needle Doctor at 800-229-0644. The steel Victrola needles are $6 per pack, plus handling and postage.

••8 Q: During the 1930s, when I was 6 or 7, my mom bought me a Shirley Temple pitcher. I still have it. What is it worth? -- Barbara, Alton, Ill. A: The cobalt-blue Shirley Temple pitchers were first manufactured by the Hazel Atlas glass company in 1934 and production continued for the next eight years. The pitcher was part of a threepiece set that consisted of the pitcher, a bowl and mug. The pitchers were sometimes given away as premiums in boxes of Wheaties and Bisquick.

Your pitcher is probably worth about $75, assuming it is in good to excellent condition. In recent years, reproductions have been made, and if you find one in a shop or at an antiques mall that is cheaply priced and appears in pristine condition, jump on the good ship lollipop and sail away, because chances are it is a fake.

••8 Q: My late husband had a box of books that he had when he was a child. I am enclosing a list and would like to know values.

-- Lydia, Albuquerque, N.M. A: You have several excellent used-book dealers in your area, and I suggest you begin your search by contacting them. If you have a computer, you might access www.abe.com. Type in the title and author of each book, and it will reveal dealers who have it for sale. Pay close attention to edition and condition.

Since I noticed that several of the books you listed are Little Golden Books, I also might recommend you get a copy of “Collecting Little Golden Books” by Steve Santi (Krause Books). This reference features the current value of more than 4,500 titles.

TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH

By Paul G. Donohue, M.D.

Family Itching to be Rid of Pinworms

DEAR DR. DONOHUE: Two of my children, a boy in the second grade and a girl in kindergarten, have been scratching their behinds for a week. I mentioned this to my neighbor, and she said they probably have pinworms. That made me sick to my stomach.

How do I know for sure? If they have them, where did they come from? I have two other children. Should they, my husband and I also be treated? I am really upset. -- A.D.

ANSWER: Calm down. Pinworms are easily treated. They’re harmless and don’t indicate a lack of cleanliness in your home. They’re found worldwide, and no stratum of society is immune to infection with them.

Transmission takes place when pinworm eggs find their way into another person’s mouth. Scratching embeds eggs under the fingernails.

The majority of infections take place when an adult or child with pinworm eggs under his or her nails or on his or her hands touches another, and that person then transfers them to the mouth. In the digestive tract, an adult pinworm emerges in a month to six weeks. Infected people perpetuate the cycle of infection in their own bodies by transmitting eggs to their mouths.

The mature female pinworm travels down the digestive tract at night

7

and deposits her eggs at or just outside the anus. A female lays more than 11,000 eggs. They’re the cause of intense itching.

The diagnosis is made by finding the worm or its eggs. The best time to look is first thing in the morning, before the child has washed.

A pinworm looks like a thin, white thread, about four-tenths of an inch (1 cm) long. Make the search with a flashlight and a magnifying glass.

Scotch tape, fixed to a tongue depressor or a similar object and pressed against the skin near the anus, traps eggs, which the doctor can see with a microscope. The tape is fixed to the depressor with the sticky side on the outside. The ends of the tape are folded over to adhere to the two sides of the depressor. Mebendazole and albendazole do a good job in getting rid of the worms. All family members should be treated. © 2014 North America Synd., Inc. All Rights Reserved

Dog Can’t Resist Jumping on People DEAR PAW’S CORNER: Our dog “Bailey” is about a year and a half old, and he has always gotten very excited around the kids and guests, and jumps up to paw at them. The kids love to play with him, which encourages him to jump up more. He is otherwise very lovable. How can I stop this behavior? -- Sign me “Muddy Shirt” in Madison, Wis. DEAR MUDDY SHIRT: Jumping up is a very common behavior in dogs. The key here is to teach Bailey that it isn’t acceptable.

How? Well, yelling or getting excited yourself when Bailey jumps up will likely do nothing, or even make the problem worse. Pushing Bailey away or swatting his nose isn’t helpful, calm, but look away and fold your arms. Say “off!” in a strong but calm voice. Turn your back on him if need be. either.

Now -- this is important -- as soon as Bailey stops the beInstead, try the “I’m not interacting with you” method. When Bailey starts to jump up (such as when you come home) stay havior, reward him by looking at him and calmly petting him.

If he starts to jump again (and he will), repeat the steps.

Basic obedience training plays a key role here. Every day, teach Bailey to sit, stay, lie down, come and heel. When he begins to jump or get hyper, use the non-interaction method, and as soon as he stops jumping, say “sit.” When he obeys you, reward him with calm petting.

What you’re teaching Bailey is that he will not get the attention he craves if he behaves a certain way (jumping). Make sure to teach your kids to do the same.

There are lots of resources and methods to address jumping up, such as the ASPCA’s pet-care section. Keep researching, or contact a professional trainer to help.

The

LAST LAUGH...

An elderly couple came back from a wedding one afternoon and were in a pretty romantic mood. While sitting on their loveseat, the elderly woman looked at her companion

and said, "I remember when you used to kiss me every chance you had."

The old man feeling a bit obliged leaned over and gave her a peck on the cheek. Then she said, "I also remember when you used to hold my hand at every opportunity." The old man again feeling obligated reached over and gently placed his hand on hers. The elderly woman then stated,

Watertown Regional Library 160 Sixth St. N.E. Watertown, SD 57201-0250 605-882-6220 • Hours: M - Th - 9:30am - 9pm Fri - 9:30am - 6pm • Sat - 9:30am - 5pm Sun - 1pm - 5pm

"I also remember when you used to nibble on my neck and send chills down my spine."

This time, the old man had a blank stare on his face and started to get up off the couch. As he began to walk out of the living room, his wife asked, "Was it something I said, where are you going?" The old man looked at her and replied, "I'm going in the other room to get my teeth!"
