L..) . : ' dangle some symptoms before tho Answer. Gelatine probably has reader's eyes now and then to keep some food value, that is, undergoes up that hopeful expectation. In tho quiescent Interval , between "attacks" of piles, a sensation of full ness and distension, is commonly felt by the subject, as tho from a foreign body or retained fecal mass. This ofton leads to III udvlsdil self dosing with cathartics- or to tho use of cno maa, both of which tend to increase tho congestion or distension of tho affected veins and honco to aggravate tho trouble. One at ail subjoct to piles can scarcely do himself a groatoc injury than to tako regularly or fre quently a laxative tablet or "liver pill" containing aloos or similar purgative ingredients. Indeed, thei habitual use of such physics must bo- reckoned a common contributing cause of piles. "J ho senso of fullnoss or discomfort oxidation and furnishes energy in1 the body.

FlaxHced ot Iilnscod Some one asked you about flaxsocd or linseed for constipation. Which is it you suggested and how should it bo used? (Mrs. C. 13. J.) Answer. They aro tho same thing. Prom a tcaspoonful to a tablospoonful of the unground seeds may bo washed down with water, once or twice daily. This accomplishes satisfactorily the purposo for which expensive prepara tions liko agar aro much used now- itsolf, and the irritation produced by adays natural stimulation of peiis- tno constant resort to physics, com- ; talis (wave movements in tho allmen blno in many instances to convince . tarv tubo). tho victim of' internal or "blind" piles that he or sho Is suffering from some other pelvic disorder; many women,, moro particularly, jump to tho conclusion' that thoy havo some disorder peculiar to sex.

Perhaps one of tho most important Gallstones In an operation for gallstones is the gallsac removed or just tho stones? Can a person live long after tho gall sao is removed? (C. H.) ' Answer. Sometimes just tho stones but somotlmes the gallsac Is so badly damaged that it is removed too. Many thousands of persons are living minus gallsacs, moro happily and' with greater expectations.
