EIGHT MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE Thurtday. Augmt 17, 1944 Your Health and Its Care BY DR. WILLIAM BRADY. M. D. Resder should addreti Inquiries toi Dr. William Brady 265 El Camlno. Beverly Hills, Calii. Saturday Night on Guam KERNELS IN THE NECK ( ml have nowadays there Is usa ally more or less cervical ade nitis which clears up after the cavities are properly filled. Any chronic infection In the nasal cavity or in one of the sinuses may cause kernels In the neck. Even chronic eczema about the face, head or neck is usually associated with kernels in the neck. Tuberculosis of the lymph nodes in the neck or elsewhere is the condition formerly called "scrofula." This condition, tu berculous adenitis, whether lymph nodes or "glands" in the neck alone are involved or whether lymph nodes In other parts of the body, say those around the bronchial tubes back of the windpipe and those be hind the Intestines in the abdo men, are likewise Involved, is so important that we shall only mention it here it merits more detailed dicussion in talks to follow. In a talk about tonsils and adenoids published here recent ly, I said that in my opinion one of the best in dexes that the enlarged ton sils (with or without asso elated "ade noids" that is, enlar g e d pharyngeal or third tonsil) may be re- responsible for a child's poor health is what n e o d 1 e com- uz ornoT monly can "kernels" In the neck, and doc tors call cervical adenitis. That Is to say the lymph nodes (popu larly called 'glands") along the sides of the neck from under the ears to the top of the breastbone are enlarged', sometimes some what tender, and can be felt as small lumps, or seen as small swellings when they are quite inflamed. . This is meiely my opinion, re member, and I speak only for myself, not for any part of the medical profession I am not too positive that such "kernels" are sufficient to indicate tonsilloto my (and I mean meiely tonsillot omy, "clipping" the tonsils, not the atrocity of "complete remov al" which is "complete" in the ory only), but if I were to decide whether a child with large ton sils and adenoids and. say, car trouble or obstruction of normal breathing should have a tonsil lotomy and adenoidotomy, pro vided the tonsils and adenoids had failed to shrink under X-ray treatments, I'd advise the opera i tion if the child had "kernels'.' In the neck, ' It must be remembered that kernels In the neck may be due to several other causes than ton sils or adenoids. Generally a child with middle ear Infection or "running ear" has kernels on the same side of the neck. If the child has one or more decayed 4Mlk l.t U a tirall enaA nr ,.j V ,j iT . j .' Infected skin, else reinfection occurs. cnua snouia do pciiiniieu iu (Copyright. 1044. John F. Bills Co.) QUESTIONS & ANSWERS Now Is the Time to Take the Customers Some of the specialists In this building (writes a plnln G. P. from a metropolitan center who charged a fee of $3 to $10 for office consulta tion before the war now demand $23 to $30 for the same service. Three dentists on our floor who charged S3 to S10 for cleaning the teeth (prophy laxis, an they call It) before the war, are now getting $33 for the same service. 1 wonder what these oppor tunists will do If and when the war suddenly ends? Can they survive on the patronage of the people who will still have too much money to spend? I iw. u.t Answer There are war profltees In all trades Including ours. Such "specialists" contrive to make the public think they know more or have more skill than honest general prac titioners, although the trick "special ists" have had no more medical train ing and no more experience than honest general practitioners have had. ' Leg Paint Ts It harmful to paint the legs with so-called leg make-up? (V. G. A.) Answer No. Ain't We Got Fundus? One member of the family con tracted ringworm of the feet at camp.

RESTRICTS IE Washington, Aug. 17 (Un official sources said today that free movement of Argentine . gold from this country had been terminated. . Argentina It was said, here tofore has enjoyed the privilege of exporting the "earmarked" gold it owns In the United States Just as freely as other Billed and associated nations. Now, It was explained, Argentina has been put on the same restric tive basis applicable to neutral nations such as Sweden, Spain, Portugal and Eire. Confirming previous disclo sure by the United Press of the move, officials described It as being entirely "logical" since the United Suites government has classified Argentina as a neu tral which is not cooperating with the Allied war effort. 01i,e 4 Barber'! ;K Observations Observations of a country woman In the city: Even down home not all of us women leave the color of our hair entirely up to nature When nature trios to fool the public by putting snow on our heads while there's still fire In our hearts we dun't take the deception lying down. We go Into temporary retirement, either at a beauty parlor or In the seclusion of our own bath room, and when we omrrge we have raven black locks even like unlo thne of Minnehaha, beloved by Hiawatha, In fact, even blacker for there simply Is no black quite so black as that which a gray haired woman can achieve give her a Utile time and the proper material. But In the city the preferred feminine hair color scheme for young and old alike Is red; red with purple roots Oh, there are lotsvof exceptions but the red heads are in the majority; I mean red with purple roots. I may find that, come the holiday season, they'll go In for a red and green matlf which I think would be most appropriate, but at this season red and purple Is the mode. Another thing about women In the city which I find most amazing is how women, even grandmothers, have retained the firm, high "little green apole" bosoms of their girlhood. That Is, I was amazed until 1 discov ered the secret In a store where I found them on display nt 25c a pair. Getting personally In terested. I made Inquiry and specified "size 42," but It seemed "little green apple" forms didn't come In super-colossal contours Beautiful coats of authentic looking sun tan on the faces of many girls fooled me until I noticed how white was the skin showing In their hair parts. One girl had forgotton to "tan" her ears. The effect was quite arrest ing, which may have been her Intention. To say that the majority of city women are addicted to red and purple hair Is unfair to the many who groom themselves most tastefully and becomingly, but to a country woman the for mer were much more noticeable. Yet one and all, they had the long black eyelashes which have always been my secret ambi tion. Buying the wherewithal to achieve these, I met with in different success on my lashes but by night had some fancy zebra effects on my cheeks. I'd forgotten about my eye winkers and had cried with homesick ness when I got the mall Moral: Never take on mascara and homesickness at the same time.
