Tho footsore pilgrim, goiiig west, implore! hie for a chew, for he lias fantods in his breast his feet are out of true; "Hegone," I cry, "the Village Chest was made for such as you."

Personal Health Service l By WILLIAM BRADY, M. D. . -t i NoUd Phytlcian and Author Strictly In endeavoring to account for the reul or apparent increa.se in the prev alence of cardiovascular disease tho other day (heart artery wearing out) I said that the chief xauae of cardio vascular discRHC are of an individual na ture and that public health author! ties do not interest tho individual in his porsonal hypione. In order to illuHtratc whut I mean let. me cito two. recent ex amples of advice of fered the public by health authorities: Novo mber 15th, 11)23, tho health commissioner of New York gave this advice: "Commandmonts to mothers . who would protect their children from taking colds: "iiewarb of damp feet. "Hhun excessive clothing. - "Give hot baths twico a week at night. "Ventilate bedrooms and living rooms. "Avoid drafts. "Provide moro oil and fat In soups with meat base. "ITse good plain food. "Let children sleep 10 hours at IeaHt. Pci'bonal "Give children plenty of light while doing home work." I submit that to tell people to ven tilate rooms, and in the same breath to warn them to avoid drafts, is. sim ply chin wagging and can do only harm, because people are willing to concede that ventilation is sufficient anyhow and they already have an overweening fear of drafts which incidentally never do any harm. Hut tho main fault I find with the New York health commissioner's at tempt to teach personal hygiene is in what he failed to say. He failed to say a single word about the very nub of tho question of the communicabil ity of tho diseases termed "coldB." Not a word about muzzling coughs and sneezes or keeping away from persona who are coughing or sneezing or run ning at the nose. In April, 1 122, the health commis sioner of Buffalo issued this advice to the public: . "This is the weather to got colds, bronchitis, pneumonia, influenza. "If you get your feet wet, take a hot mustard foot bath and a hot drink which means hot water as hot as you can stand it' with either lemon, orange or grape juice In it, and go to bed. "In the month of March we had more cases of pneumonia, lobar pneu monia, bronchitis and influenza re ported", with incidental deaths, than wo had for a long, long time." So be careful, don't get your fV I taw i.rldeo. llavo not as ,yo, , .. ..... .1 t,...., n... ,... i-usj&d the. question or tn . donnr', wet, if you live in Buffalo. But if you live beyond the ;ininiediate control of uA -D.. train health rinnnrtmant. in the absence of any specific direction for such cases.. I'd say in a General way just be careful that your friends or associates do not splash in your face when they're sneezing, coughing or talking within four foet from your in take. . . - - QVESTIOXS AND 'ANSWERS i . .Foolish Maiden . A number of years ago. tho very younjr, I hnd faint lines from noBe to mouth and foolishly had paraffin-injected, with the result that it hus loft my face with a lump on each side. I consulted a supposedly reliable phy slclan and surgeon, but he informed mo he would not attempt to do any thing, as tho paraffin has spread and is In very small pieces all thru the flesh. But before giving up I decided to ask you. .-.'.. - - Answer. It is a very difficult thing to remove paraffin .from the .tissues, and even if it had to bo done (as is sometimes the case when a -cancerous condition follows the prolonged ft rita tlon), considerable scar is likely tt; be left.,.. The injection of paraffin Jor "beauty" purposes alone should bv classified with the practice of tattoo ing. Either of these operations may of course sorve a useful purpose in thea hands of a competent surgeon. Young Man, lie a Dentist What sum is considered a reason-' able fee for an appendicitis opera tion? . Would you favor having such an operation before a clinic?- Follow ing physician's advice I have had my tonsils removed. He also insisted that I have several teeth extracted.
