SPURIOUS NERVOUS EXHAUSTION
For vears 1 have been teach-i with a diagnosis of neuras-
ine. with insignificant success,
that a diagnosis of nervoui ex
haustion, nerv
ous weakness,
nervous fatigue
or neurasthen
nia is a trick
diagnosis and
that if the pa
tient, not the
I f 1 friends, is the
I ff V victim of the
I deception ho or
... 1 , n e ought to
Or Brad? know better.
Tor yars I have been getting re
ports like this:
If my trouble Isn't neurasthe
nlt, then what Is It? The best
doctors specialists, etc., etc , etc.
Well, that stops me. For all
my bombast I'm not much good
as a long-distance diagnostician.
AU I can say is what I say
here.
The discerning reader may get , onc who purports to have neu
some idea from the interesting . rasth.nia
comment in a cnapier on muu
pellagra in McLester's Nutrition
and Diet In Health and Diseata,
(Saunders, '39):
thenla."
Oh, well, Dr. J. M. JIcLester
was just a young fellei when he
made that observation FroDaoiy
the eminent physicians who sent
the pellagrins to the hospital for
"neurasthenia'' would dismiss
his observation as that of an in'
experienced youngster.
Mortality statistics indicate
that there are perhaps two thou
sand deaths ascribed to pellagra
In a year in a southern state. If
pellagra Is entered on the death
certificate In that many Instances
we may safely assume that sev
eral thousand deaths due pri
marily to pellagra are certified
as due to heart failure, pneumo
nia, exhaustion, etc., and if so
many people die of oellagra in
one state it is safe to assume that
hundreds of thousands of people
have mild pellagra, whether It
is so diagnosed or not
This does not mean that pel
lagra is what really hils every-
"The disabilities of these,
patients include anorexia
(lack of appetite), diarrhea,
easy exhaustion, nervous in
stability or mild mental de
pression, imd peripheral
neuritis. Ofter the tongue is
red . . . glossitis (sore
tongue) . . . sometimes lit
tle more than anorexia, loss '
of weight and change of per
sonality. This was empha
sized by J. B. McLester,
who made the significant ob
servation" Now listen, If some eminent spe
cialist has kidded you along
with the trick diagnosis of neu
rasthenia ". . , the significant obser
vation that an appreciable
number of pellagrins In the
Hillman Hospital, of Bir
mingham (Alabama) gave a
history of having been ad
mitted in previous years
QIIBSTIONH & ANSWERS
Mainline Versus lnlson
You 0uggt8tAd to a reader who won
dered whether amoking causes or ag
gravates gnll-bladder trouble, thut
excessive smoking may cause "duo
denal uloer complex" and so It might
be well to try rutting out smoking
for six weeks. Does thla Imply that It
takes six weeks to get alt 1'ie nicotine
out or the system? (It. L. M.)
Answer No. Only that It takes that
long ror nature to repair damage, ir It
Is still repairable. Even lr nicotine
were the poloon or harmrul element
In tobacco or tobacco smoke- (which I
do not believe probably t wonld be
entirely excreted from the system
within 48 hours, at loiviest, after tne
Individual discontinues taking it. The
same holds true of alcohol only more
so. It Isn't Just Immediate poisoning,
but rather the damage done to body
oella, that accounts for the morblb
effects of tobaccr- or alcohol.

Brief Talk.
VOLUNTEERS AID
J!
"Moving In Or Out?" Is "the
question the man or woman on
the street asks Vera Humphrey,
energetic chairman of tho Junior
Red Cross as she stands at the
door of the little Junior Red
Cross office In the Holly Theater
building. "Neither," she laughs.
"Just cleaning up, want a Job?"
After the reply Is, "Sure. Ill
help, what do you need?" Vera
always has an answer: "What
do you have Junior Red Cross
can use most anything."
So, out of many conversations
such as this. Interested citizens
are redecorating the whole shop.
AU morning, Thursday, friends
found Lloyd Rupp, former labor
councilor and now Central Point
restaurateur, covered with paint,
kalsomining tho walls, to make
good a promise he made at
Red Cross meeting last spring,
Young Vern Livingston, aged 9,
faithful apprentice, the envy
of every other Jeep, was swab
bing up ofter him and painting
when he got a chance. All last
week the work went merrily on.
Mrs. Edward Carlon and Vera,
with the occasional help of
Georgia Ann Hussong and Leom
Chapman, painted shelves, desks
and chairs with Mr. Carlon giv
ing free advice as he loaned lad
dcrs and floor covering. Nighl
lights revealed Wallace llasklns.
veteran of World War I. his wife
Bertha, an enthusiastic Junior
Red Cross worker, cutting lino
leum, lining shelves, and bracing
tables loaned by the carpenters'
union.
The shop Is full of donations.
Porch chairs from Eleanor
Holmes are being painted marine
blue and turkey red, matching
tho shelves inside. A lamp from
Mary Kuehlthau, transformed
with Red Cross stickers, and an
electric clock from the C. Y.
Tcngwalds are among the treas
ured possessions of the Jeeps.
As soon as the place Is dry again
and the window ready for some
attractive displays such as
"Christmas in July for Overseas
Men," or "Recreation Kits for
Prisoners of War." Ray Harrison
will put tip a smart cellophane
curtain. Display mirrors and1
show fixtures from the Law-!
rence Jewelry Shop will make
effcctlvo the Jeep posters by
Mary Halvorsen and murals of
the high school artist group.
The committee expect the shop
will be ready for business again
next week because of the help
of all of these friends. Mnny
adults who have stopped by the
little Red Cross shop seem to be
enthused; they go home and
search the attic for things to
help. Others who have given
their bit of time and thought to
supervising the young people
have their own satisfactions and
rewards. They are teaching at
the three "Jeep Shops," Junior
high, the Hobby Shop and the
Tnlent high "Jeep Shop," and
next week every afternoon at
Headquarters, where our Juniors
seem to get so much fun out of
giving tip vacation play to make
things to help those big brothers
overseas.
Albany, N. Y., July 1 (U.R)
Gov. Thomas E. Dewey. Repub
lican presidential nominee, told
a cheering crowd, welcoming
him back to the state capitol to
day, that this country will prove
during the forthcoming political
campaign "that the United
States is the most united nation
in all the world."
Speaking from the steps of
New York s historic capitol
building, Dewey said the coun-1
try will prove to our Allies and :
enemies "that we can argue
about the things dear to us and
at the same time fight a war all
the harder."
"The United States Is almost
the only nation in the world
that would risk an election dur
ing a war," he said. "We are
ready to risk an election be
cause we want to make it clear
that we can argue about the
things dear to us and at the
same time fight the war all the
harder.
"We have the greatest system
In the world because we can ar
gue and keep our shoulders to
the wheel."
Dewey said an election during
a war year proved that the
country was "strong and united."
He spoke only briefly after
being introduced to a huge
crowd gathered in front of the
capitol steps.
Republican Leader Benjamin
Fcinberg, of the state senate, in
troduced Dewey as "the next
president of the United States."
He said that all the country
knows of Dewey's courage and
ability.
The governor, Mrs. Dewey and
members of his official family
were greeted by hundreds of peo
ple gathered In Union depot.
When he stepped from his spe
cial car, two bands blared and
shouts of "We want Dewey"
went up from the crowd.
En route to the capitol In an
automobile. Dewey waved to
woll-wisnors gathered along the
streets. Sgt. E. P Conway of the
New York state police estimat
ed the crowd at 10,000.
