SOME TONSILS W
Tliuro Is a largo radical element
In the medical profession, perhaps
the ruling majority of practicing
physicians are radical In (heir attl-
. tittle toward en
larged tonsils and
diseased or In
fected tonsils,
that in, they muke
: no bones : at all
about condemn
ing all such ton
sils to radical sur
gical uxcislnn
. Ileitis a radical,
a doctor natural
ly has soma arbitrary ideas. One
ot.the arbitrary Ideas cherished by
the radical element of our profes
sion lti' reference to the tosil ques
tion is that a doctor, surgeon or
specialist who knows his snares,
punches,, tomes, , scalpels, ,hemo
stats, gags, et cetera, removes the
tonslls.'oh, you Just can't concolvo
how radically when he purports to
have. removed them at all. Well, 1
suppose we doctors ought to stok
to our story, yet I, for one, have no
hesitancy in affirming that. 1 be
lieve the, time has come to hedge
a bit In the. best interest of the
public., The very reason and in
spiration for our "code" of medical
ethics is the the public welfare; a
doctor who Is true to his profes
sional traditions mtiBt consider the
welfare of the public, or of the pa
tient, first; his own interest after
ward. ' It isn't likely to bring a doc
tor more operations If he announces
that too many operations, are being
(lone. .....
1 had an acute attacg 01 appenai-1
citis a few years ago and a prompt
operation. It was a good thing for
me, that attack. It taught me a j
sound lesson. Up to that time t
hud always believed, taught and fol
lowed as a principle in my own
practice, that it was better to wait,
say 48 hours before deciding to
operate in acute appendicitis. .. My
qwh , attack was scarcely , three
hours old when 1 knew that imme
diate operation was necessary, and
am thankful that tho doctor who
took care of me did not share the
conservative idea 1 had .about the
treatment. Of course I might have
nulled through, all right, even had
the operation been postponed a day
or two. Hut hot so comfortably.
I am certain, If at all. .
I've never had my tonsils re
moved, not oven once., No joking.
The Joko Ib the. attitude, our radical
brethren take . when they prate
about the complete removal ot the
tonsils by the more competent spe
cialists or surgeons in that work.
Yet a study of a thousand tonsils
(how many bushels would you esti
mate) after, they had been removr
od hy goo1 operators was made hy
Dr. Albert 9. Welsh. . He found 43
per 'cont ot.nU these tonsils wore
normal tonsils, and 28 per cent of
them, were non-pathological or dis
eased, oxcopt for cheesy concre
tions in the crypts If you can fair
ly call that common condition or
tho tonsils dlseosc. . He font.",
pieces of throat muscles attached
to l.'tn ot the tonsils. Tlmt tends
to hear nut the claim that the thor
ough operators got all the tonsil
there , Is In the throat yes, and
more.
Knottgh scandnl, hut I deem It
only fair to bring these facts to the
attention of the public, in view of
the nnrrow-mlnded and unprngres
slve attitude of a large part ot the
radical medical profession toward
the more conservative methods of
dealing with tho tonsils.

E HAVE REMOVED
Coffee Without the Cheer
I am drinking a brand of coffee
that purports to have the caffeine
taken out. I am taking the cure
at home tuberculosis, l8 a cup
of this ghost coffee less apt to af
reet my . sleep than .ordinary cof
fee? It doesn't seem ' to saUsfy
me. (T. T. A.).
Ans. Coffee taken In the morn
ing can scarcely affect sleep the
next night in any case.- Only your
doctor can advise whether you
should take coffee, or how much
or when or what kind. My opinion
of coffee with part of the caffeine
removed is that when ground and
dried it makes a very safe thing to
sprinkle on nn Icy sidewalk. A
cup of decaffeineized coffee or a
pipe of denlcotinlzed tobacco is
about as thrilling as a pair of
shapely silk hose hanging on the
clothes line.
