' "' - - ' Dear .Doctor Uradyr"' ( ' Several months ago I was suffering f r o m ' sciatic ; rheuma tism, -and getting n o. t h I n g more definitu ; from two, physici a n s than a guess that my. tonsils' might h e ,t h e cause of my trouble ... Permit the con ductor to interrupt the correspon dent long enough to say that the Very ooncopt of "sciatic rheuma lism.V'is &n Indefinite gue.su. If one ha sciatic neuritis, that's a defin ite and painful affliction. If one has "rheumatism," Heaven .only knows what's the matter. Itut une simply can't have "sciatic rheuma tism," because there Is no such malady. Whatever the patient had, the two physicians wore '.at. least honest In their opinion they could not assure the patient that (he trouble came from septic, focus in the tonsils. No honest doctor could do so. They gave him their opinion, and the patient should have accepted It and followed the advice they based on It. else It was silly of him to consult the two physicians at all. ... a guess that my tonsils . might be the causa of my trouble, and their deprecation of the diathermy method of . tonsil removal, I appealed to you to name a doctor in who used this meth od. - . . Another brief Interruption, please, to point out the ineptitude or poor Judgment of the two phy sicians in deprecating a method which is now universally accepted by . the best physician, especially for handicapped patients who are hud risks for the old-fashioned surgical . tonsillectomy.

You recommended Dr. of. . , nGi having' first determined that niy.ton-' alls were . infected, removed ; them. . Klvo treatments were necessary. I feel sure that a good share of the discomfort 1 felt after the treatments was ' due to the fact that 1 ate all my regular meals, even immediately- following treatments. This was no doubt severe on a throat just operated on. And now the tonsils are all gone, but nothing oIho with them, except the old rhetima li'A, w h ieh d isa ppeared almost entirely after the first treat ment. So, believe me, I am very grateful to you, Doctor llrady. Yours sincerely, Such a letter more than counter balances the attacks some of our medical editors and old timers In the throat and noso field have mmle . upon me for my "promo tion" of the diathermy method of to nsi I re mo va I . i don't wa u t lo crow, but it is worthy of notico that the old guard no longer utters j any such squawks about this new tfangled method they've been (shamed into silence by the alarm ingly growing army of people who have been successfully treated by the 'diathermy (electro-eoagulntton electro-desiccation) method. 1 call attention particularly to the correspondent's assertion that his "rhcuimitiz" disappeared al most - completely after the first diathermy treatment. There Is both a warning and a promise im plied in lhat. People with nny such focal infection cannot expect to. be cured in one sitting; hut nevertheless many are so cured In one fitting perhaps when the septic focus happens to bp de stroyed or the infected area of tonsil sterilized by the very first npplieation of diathermy.

Kogimeti I have read your talks for many years, partly for instruction In health matters and partly for the humor. Home time aco you gave a protective, coixectivc diet.

The diet as I gave it here (any reader who wishes the instructions may send n stamped envelope bearing bis address and ask for the Corrective, -Protective Uegimen) yields approximately ll.-iou calories barely sufficient for the average .sqdentary worker. Any jtuy who attempw to suw wood,, dig ditches or hike six miles or. more u day on this diet is going to go gaunt and haggard. For such activity from 3000 to 4000 calories per day. must he stoked and burn ed in order to maintain an adult at average normal weight and condi tion. For most adults who are inclined to lay on superfluous flesh after 30. the Corrective Protective Uegimen Is a nafe and snno reduc tion diet.
