GALL-STONES If you are past middle, fat, “tub by" and—-sedentary, you are a lik-ely candidate for Kali-stones, and espe cially if constipated and neglectful of diet, bowels and exercise. Then, if you eat too much. I don’t see as many gall-stone cases as I used to—not at all; peo ple are becoming educated. Not all gall stones announce them selves by the severe pain of passing through the bile-duct; I once did an autopsy on an 80-vear-old patient— a woman—-who had carried over 70 large stones in the gall bladder for years without knowing she had them. These concretions are caused by long-retained bile in the gall-blad der: they form somewhat like sugar forms in the bottom of the syrup pitcher that is little used. Preven tion means—to keep the bile mov ing; exercise helps to do this. A plain, nutritious diet, and temper ance in eating is another aid. Plen ty of green vegetables, the “leafy" sorts are of use in the diet. Lettuce, spinach, dandelion greens, well-pre pared cabbage, colslow, and such. 1 am partial to the coarser breads at least once daily. People have told me sweet milk and .eggs “make them bilious." I think they are mistaken: the term biliousness is so old it has whiskers—like all pious old frauds, it means always some thing else. Best remedy for threat of gall stones, Phosphate of Soda—I mean best family remedy; it is harmless. Should be taken every morning be fore breakfast, enough to keep the bowels moving comfortably. A sim ple, well-tried remedy is safer in the household than a car-load of ex ploited “specifics” that spell quack ery in big letters. The surgery of the gall-bladder is another matter. Your family doc tor is your best friend . . . ask him. I After reading half a column of instructions on how to pronounce “Jehol,” we’ve decided to call it “Jehol”.—Atlanta Journal. Man was just as intelligent 10,000 years ago as he is now, declares a learned professor, damning our pre historic ancestors, with vain praise. -—Boston Herald.
