MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE . Your Health and Its Care BY OR. WILLIAM BRADY. M. D. - Readers ihould addrst Inquliits toi Or William Brady - MS El Camlno. Bavsrly Hills. CslU. TWO-CHILD Offhand I can't cite an author ity for it, but m meaicai par lance there la a familiar phrase "nne-cnua Bier llitv" which is algnlf leant t o the physician if not to the lavman. It sug Bests that the prlmipera (wo man wno naa borne one child) has suf fered, weeks or months aft erward, one or Or. Brady more attacks of Inflammation In the pelvic reg ion, In consequence of which the aaiianAlan ti,v,a hnvD hftrnme ' obstructed, occluded,, shut off by acar tissue, and hence tne wo man hat become sterile. This is not, the place to discuss the causes of such Inflammation and consequent one-child sterility, ' nor can I make even an approxi mate guess about that in any in stance from reading a descrip tion of the Individual case In deed I could offer no more than guess about it even if I had all the data a doctor can obtain by examlnttion and study of the patient. So dunt esk me. So much for one-child steril ity. Now what is two-child stem It is what this correspondent thinks she wants: . Dear Doctor: I am 24 and have two chil dren. There is only 19 months difference in their ages. Now when my baby is 14 months old I'm expecting another baby. I am not healthy enough ' to take care of any more. I . have broken vein in one leg so that sometimes I can hardly walk. ' I want your opinion about 1 being sterilized . . . (Signed) . There you have it, folks. Yan kee two-child sterility lit the plrit of our times. . Had this "birth control" rack ad been so unashamedly pro moted when our parents were raising families as it is now, many of us who were not first 'or second born would not have been bora Into this vale of fears.'

Dm. it. 1944 STERILITY. .The young woman may be really ill. All I know about that is what she says that she is not healthy enough to take care of more than two children. That has a familiar sound. A lot of badly educated young people about to marry or recently mar ried assign "poor health" or "not strong" as their excuse for childlessness and a lot more are hard-boiled about It they say they want to have some fun for a few years before they become tied down raising kids, or some thing to that effect. This is no attempt to pass Judgment on the moral or ethical aspect of the matter. I am speaking simply as a physician and a health adviser, if you please. After all, you should re member,, health is happiness, and you're a damned fool if you think you can find happiness without health, Ask any old fool who has tried it.

Keep lour Teeth , Our dentist looked et my teeth and aid on account of my age (45) they hould be extracted. When 1 said 1 wanted to aave them he became In tuiting and Mid I should have an X day. I paid him $$$ for an X-ray, and he showed me the film but made no explanation. I might as well have looked at a Mickey Mouse film. (Mrs. 3. L. E.) Answer Evidently you consulted a dental quack. Certainly a patient's age Is no excuse for extracting teeth. Perhaps your family physician will recommend a reliable dentist In your neighborhood. I'm sorry I have no data on dentists. , Ambulant Treatment for Hernia My husband on your recommenda tlon had Dr give him the am bulant treatment for hernia, with complete success and we are grateful for your advice and for all of your teachings.

MJOW HOW THE SfoRV COMES OUf progress, yet not nearly so much so as the personalities of its leaders and citizenry. All of us have seen the changes brought about in a business due to a change in management. And the success of a marriage is influenced very little by when or where that marriage took place; the re sponsibility for success or fail ure lies with the parties mar ried. So It Is with every fact of living; time and place are in cidental; who did what is all that matters. Edison, if born in the stone age, ' would have hustled his tribe Into the use of bronze in no time at all. Mozart would have wangled sweet tunes out of a kettle drum. A Neander thal Moses would have lead his tribe to happier hunting grounds. The silver tongued Bryan, if born before the spok en word had ' evolved, would have swayed prehistoric men with the passion and eloquence of his grunts and gestures. Even as a child in school. I paid no never mind to dates and places. Always It wag the individual who held my interest.
