WHO CARES WHAT
' "Robert Louis Stevenson was
tubercular,", a remarkably well
Informed correspondent reminds
me, , ' Dut me
Immediate
cause of his
death," the
C or respondent
adds, "was
rupture of, an
aortic aneur
ism, a malady
that has, sup
posedly, causal
relation to
S p 1 r o chaata
pallida."
Or Brad? All I know
about Stevenson's Illness and
death Is what I read In biogra
phies. I had gained the Impres
sion that Stevenson was tubecu
lous, not tubercular there Is a
difference, as we shall see
and that he succumbed finally
to apoplexy, a stroke or shock,
rupture of a veswl and hemor
rhage Into the substance of the
brain.
' Tubercle Is a nodule or lump
or swelling either on the sur
face br, in the substance of an
organ. Tubercles are character
istic of more than one disease,
notably leprosy, lupus, and ad
vanced syphilis. - These diseases
are tubercular) but only tuber
culosis Is tuberculous.
It Is true that aortic aneur
ism (dilatation or ballooning of
the great artery) occurs as a
rule In men who have had
syphilis for fifteen or twenty
years, with final involvement of
the cardiovascular (heart-artery)
system. Splrochaeta pallida is
one name for the specific germ
of syphilis. It is otherwise
known as Treponema pallida. ,
. My correspondent . himself
now getting along, is or rath-
er was tuberculous, "The only
injunction laid on me by Dr.
Trudeau, when I was a victim
of tb, was," he writes (tb. being
the abbreviation for - tubercu
losis). "Never get chilled.' The
soundness of that advice was, I
think, indisputable. . . . I am
sure that chilling may usher in
colds. That many persons fail
' to catch cold as a result of chill-
BACK FROM TRIP
Charles W. Austin,' local milk
and dairy inspector ' who just
returned from a vacation . trip
to the midwest, Chicago and
Cleveland, states that he was
glad to hear while away that
many people have finally learn
ed where ' Oregon is located
geographically, that Its. capital
is Salem instead of Los Angeles
and that Crater Lake is not in
California. : '
Mr. Austin stated that boun
tiful crops were being harvested
in the sections he visited and
that October was a beautiful
month, as it was here. The in
spector said he was pleased to
hear many people talking about
the Rogue River luscious pears.
"I was asked about Harry and
Dave, who seem to be making
'foot prints' into many homes
with their pamphlets. Also the
'Blue Goose appeared to be
flying high over - Chicago and
Cleveland.
"I stepped into a lumber yard
sales room, Introducing myself
as from Medford, Ore., and the
proprietor remarked 'quite a
coincidence here Is a catalog
just received from the Ameri
can Fruit company touting their
Christmas pears; are they any
good?' I assumed he meant the
pears, of course, so I did my
best in efforts akin to Bill Gates
to spread the fertility of our
soil and the features of our
climate, which combine Ideal
conditions to grow a luscious

ing proves absolutely not a
thing."
. Having given me the righs of
It in! his magisterial way, my
correspondent (his sagacious ob
servations on migrane . were
published in one of the leading
medical journals a rare dis
tinction for a layman) bows out
saying "You are doing' a good
work. 'I must admit that 's
stuff is of more Interest and
value to me." !
Probably -' 'g - stuff con
forms more-' carefully to - the
quaint traditions that exposure
to cold, dampness or chilling
is a dangerous thing and a cause
or a predisposing factor of what
ever illness you happen to have.
After all, who- am- I to ques
tion the' belief or opinion or
teaching or advice of an Osier, a
Trudeau or any other great dead
merlcal authority?
Let's leave the dead men out
of it. .If you can quote a living
medical authority, in not more
than a hundred words, I'll go to
the mat with him.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Tuberculosis
' This pamphlet telle about reelitance
to tuberculoe Is. You claim -there la no
scientific bails for the Idea of realat
ance. (B. L. 6.) '
Answer That la true, BO far as the
common use of the term Is concerned.
The pamphlet ''How Your Pndv
Fights TB," issued by National Tuber
oulosia association, 17S0 Uroadwu. ,4
Y. City, is an excellent one, In it the
word ''resistance" obviously meana
IMMUNITY. Immunity Is aclenUflcal
ly recoiniied, definite, clinically
measurable. "Resistance" la Just a lot
of hooey, wherever and whenever the
term la employed In medical litera
ture. Garllo
Tor my high blood pressure I have
been taking garlic pills, but they are
very expensive. (R. B.)
Answer Neither garllo itself nor
any extract, concentrate or deriva
tive of It. has any effect on blood
pressure. Lucky (for your welfare) the
nostrum Is expensive. High blood
pressure, like high body temperature
or high pulse rate, occurs as a man
ifestation or aymptom of many dif
ferent disease conditions. Therefore
It Is silly to try this or that remedy
which purporta to be good for It. Jn
atead of aquanderlng your money on
such nostrum, you should Invest In
an examlnaUon by a good doctor
and leave It to the doctor to decide
what. If anything, to do about the
blood pressure.
Pores "
Kindly send me literature on ports.
I claim the porea cannot absorb, but
only give vent to secreUons. (E. M.)
Answer Consult any standard text
book of anatomy or physiology, In the
publlo library. You are right. The akin
cannot absorb anything through the
"pores" or otherwise.

pear which tops the world.
We were, also asked concern
ing our timber, so It evidently
does pay .to advertise. v
I was courteously asked to
accompany two milk and dairy
inspectors on one of their daily
rounds, which I did.. One can
profit well from each day's ex
perience, if he choose, and sul-
ficice is to say, Oregon" and
Medford Included need have no
apologies to offer for their mar
ket milk supplies."

that they heard a loud explosion
before the crash of a Transcon
tinental and Western Air Lines

tinctly heard It.
Additional testimony was giv
en, by K. C. Sonner, a power
plant specialist with the CAE

accordance - with standards set
