Hut wo should say, nine out of ten people In San Francisco, at the present time, aren't thinking or miking about politics at all.

His companion ugrned Willi him, while the man on the other side dlsaKi'eed. "Look at this man Uaskob" hu Id the latter, "ho says times are bad, and have been bud. i these oad times.

Hig busi ness controls both Hoover and Smith, and if we Kot prosperity, the laboring man payH for It. And they are both for the tariff, which I means the poor man pays the bill. I would bo for Smith if he wasn't for letting in nil this dirty Kuru pean labor. They come over here and work for nothing, and the American Is out of a job or has his wages cut.

ItKVIVAIi CF Till-; ;t01 OMI KIIKl'MATIZ Arthritis (a medical term mean ing Joint inflammation) is not sim ply a joint disease but a general disease with general manifesta tions, according to Dr. Robert O. Osgood of Hos ton. In an ab stract of study of arthritis by Dr. Osgood, publish ed in the Rulle t iu of the Buffalo Academy of Med icine, chronic ( long enduring) arthritis Is divid ed into two typos namely, the atroplc type, usually in persons und--r middle ago. and the proliferative type, usually In persons past middle age. Ko far an choice between the two types is eoncernt.d, I don't know whether I'd rather be a young guy or an old duffer. Tn the young guy's kind of rhen mati', according to Dr. Osgood, there Im slight limitation of motion early In the Mines. Swelling nay be present. X-ray pictures show little change In the Joint surfaces.; The cartilages of the joint are us-; unity normal. Later- in the Illness1 there is some atrophy or shrinkage of tiic bono ends, loss of substance.: In tho old duffer's rheumatic, the proliferative type, there is a j swelling of the affected Joint or ; lolnts with proliferation of tho i synovial or lining membrane. The Joint cartilages sometimes disap-1 pear entirely or in part. The ! thickened portions uf synovial membrane sometimes ossify. You kern your toiiHiis or bad teeth and take your choice. Or mayhap you keep your ton-; sils and teeth and still escape the rheumatic. Dr. Osgood mentions 1 some pertinent statistics bearing on this question. He concedes that focal Infection (as from diseased tonsils, neglected root abscesses and the like) the underlying cause in a great number of cases of type one tir atropic arthritis as ho calls it. Rut he says that It is radical to assume that removal of such foci will effect a cure, lie observes that Pendleton found such foci In 73 per cent of cases of arthritis which he studied: in those caes where Pendleton removed the foci 1 ft per cent recovered, In a series in which Pendleton ilid not re move the foci 4(1 per cent recover ed. This suggests to Dr.. Osgood that the problem of chronic nrth-i-ifN Is nol entirely one of focal in fection tr surgical intervention. It does not signify so much to my mind, for ( conceive that Dr. Pen dleton is enamored of the meta bolic theory of arthritis. And he may be right, at that. Dr. Osgoo I goes on to define his own attitude thus: "It Is needless to" sacrifice tonsils nnd teeth on suspicion only, but It Is preferable to build un the rundown condi tion these patients usually have. To further emphasize - tonsilectomy was advised in a series of 7I children. Tho ope rations were not done, hut after six months of healthful, hygienic living, it wns found necessary to remove the ton sils from only four of theso child ron." .lust what this healthful, hv uicnic living embraces, Dr. Osgood does not .explain in this article. Whatever regimen he may pre scribe for children, 1 fancy I would say amen to It. Rut when Dr. Osgood drags In 2-10 old t-oldiers to fortify his position, I'm for call ing out the guard nnd herding those old soldiers back to the bar racks. I quote from tho nhstract in the bulletin: "Considering the eitology, worry, fatigue . and exposure nre Important factors. In a series of 4" Of) cases of arthritis in soldiers, all of whom had art brills with (probably mis print for within) two years after enlistment. CO per cent reported arthritis following ex posure and lowered general re sistance without any relation to foci of infection." Old soldiers always have been fond of ascribing their rheumatic to exposure in the line of duty and this theory seldoh fails to Im press (he (tension board but I'm surprised at Dr. Osgood. ! t "FNTIONS AND WSWMIiS '1 he Automalie Valvcw. We were taught in physiology that (he skin of a person wus filled with pores, each pore having n tiny valve thai opens or closes so the skin may imbibe or throw off poison or wasie matter or dirt or; dust particles, as the case may he. We were taught that the weather; or temperature controls the action; of these valves. llow is it that ' you arc the only one in the secret j if this Is all a mistake? Mrs. A.) M. L. . 1 Answer. "Physiology" in school j is generally a bad joke on the pu-i pils and their parents, anyway. I j cannot explain what or why you j were taught such moonshine. There i is no "secret" about this. Anyone! who has a knowledge of anatomy: or physiology will assure you that 1 the automatic valve or trapdoor! notion is ridiculous. Canyon cite' any physiologist or anatomist or i othr authority who will take issue with me about it? Wherever there j is a hair in the skin, there is an; opening of a sebaceous (oil) gland.; and usually the opening of a sweat gland. On tho palms and soles ihe common opening of sebaceous and sweai gland may be seen with a magnifying glass, along ridges. Nothing Is ever absorbed through these openings. Nor do these open ings, ever open or close, from heat or cold or other external influ ences. The openings vary in size In different individuals and in dif ferent areas of skin of the same individual. Rut nobody's "pores" ever open or close in any clrou instances- If old-time doctors used the expression "open pores" or "closed pores" they did so inno cently or figuratively. Just as peo ple now say the "blood turns to water," when they mean merely that the blood has a diminished red corpuscle content or a dlmin-: lulled hemoglobin content. Rlood never turns to water. I insist : on this point about the "'pores" for your welfare, not Just fur my 1 pleasure, for I'm pretty tired of It myself. My object Is, ir pos- i sihle. to save you from being bun- j coed by a 1 1 so rts of t h i ngs that i 2 PKRS HF.ALTH exploit your credulity nltaut th ploit your credulity alhuit thei res. For Instance, read Miss K.j pOi'i K.'s query below. Tone the Skin and Skin the Client.

I am often amused by your views, some of which 1 think are ridiculous. Miss K. K. Answer. You'd be rurprised how m ll c h amusement some of the beauty specialists get from tho cre dulity of their customers.

THE OLD HORSE In days when horses wore tlte KOotls, for driving Ihroufih the lanes and woods, and up the grassy hraes, a man would keep his raltliful horse until It slept beneath the ;orse, all done with traveled ways. Old Dobbin nrter years would be a member of the family, a comrade and a friend; when lie was young we all took pride in Dobbin's mile-devourins stride, and tjtyle, which had no end. When he was KrowinK weak and old, borne down by ailments manifold, periiaps the boys would Bay, "Oh, dad set rid of that old nan, and get a colt of which to bru.' a chestnut or a bay. Old Dobbin's been a good old steed, but now he's badly gone tn seed, and run down at the heel; we drive him down the village street, and jeers are flung by all we meet, and bitter shame we feel." Hut dad on this was adamant, and he would cry, "My sainted aunt! Such lan guage is a crime; is this your gratitude to 'one that furnished you such loads of fun, when ho was in his prime? Old Dobbin's hauled yon many miles, and pulled the trick with equine smiles, and gloried in the task; and now that he Is old and gray you'd have me trade the beast away is this fair play, I ask? While 1 can buy a bale of hay or peck of oats, that horse shall stay, his slull shall be his own; when he Is dead and laid to reBt, perhaps I'll ope the treasure chest and buy a bay or roan." Do people such nffectiou feel for autos made of tin or steel, of leather brass and pine? Wlien some old car is growing old, does Father say, "No gems or gold could buy that car of mine?" Ah, no, he says. "This blamed old bus Is out of date, not worth a cuss, I'll have to trade it In; I can't afford to drive a wain that looks as tho old Tubal Cain had fashioned it of tin."
