This Is the Merchant's
Side Of the Credit
Question of Today
Here are some of his problems:
1. Government taxes, such as
a. Social security and withholding tax.
k. Tht corporation tax (if tht firm is a corporation)
c. State tax.
d. Operating expense, such as rent, water, light, fuel, telephone, community chest, Red
Cross, and other miscellaneous offerings.
t. Newspaper advertising, broadcasting, and other mediums of introducing his services and
merchandise.
f. Delinquent accounts and carrying charges (if the firm is doing credit business). .
g. His profit is being cut down from time to time by compeiilion, and by the companies
that he buys from which are making the margin of profit less as time goes on.
h. The banks are being forced to make his loans harder to get, due to the fact that most
banks are working under Federal control of insured accounts up to $5,000, and there
fore loans are more hazardous for the small business man who is doing a credit business.
I. Last, but not least, consumer credit, which has now hit the $1 9,000,000 mark, is making
collections much harder every day as more people buy more stuff on the installment plan.
THE DEBTOR'S SIDE OF THE
QUESTION K
Now you can set why it pays to take cart of a bill when it is due, to keep your credit good.
If you don't pay promptly, you retard the whole
commercial cycle,
because tht business man has to pay his wholesale bills when due or he placed on a cash basis.
TRY TO PAY ALL YOUR BILLS
. BETWEEN THE FIRST AND THE TENTH OF THE
MONTH AND KEEP YOUR CREDIT GOOD
Whenever you rectivt t PIONEER SERVICE COUNTY CREDIT BOARD statement bearing our
registered trademark, either pay in full, part pay, or satisfactorily arrange to pay.
Remember, the man who pays is welcome everywhere and can enjoy the credit that he is
forced to ask for. Lose your credit and you will lose something that you may never regain.

THE UNSOLVED BH EUMATISM RIDDLE
Dr. brady
Ten or twenty years ago phy
sicians who were recognized as
specialist or authorities were
i fond of de
scrining sever
al formi or
kinds of joint
.trouble ol grad
ual d e v e 1 op
ment and long
duration
(chronic), such
as chronic in
f e c t i o n s
(caused by
germs, arthri
tis, atrophic
(wast ing) ar
thritis, hyper
trophic (thick
ening, enlargement of Joints) ar
thritis, rheumatoid arthritis (re
sembling rheumatism, whatever
that may be), arthritis deformans
and osteo-arthritis (inflammation
of both Joints and bones).
To the untutored layman, as
1 the daily mail tells me, this
term arthritis seems pretty sig
nificant. Actually it has no spe
cial siijnificance. It is merely
a S2 medical word for Joint in
flammation. The layman com
ilains to the doctor of painful,
lame or sore Joints. The doctor
shakes his head over the situa
tion and informs the patient that
it is a touch of arthritis. That
seems to satisfy the curiosity of
Ihe untutored layman. Having
"tried" what ever the doctor ad
vised or prescribed without any
noticeable benefit, th1" untutored
layman takes a whirl at what
ever nostrum or diet or other
emedy or treatment for "arthri-
is" he happens to come across,
erchance after a , year or two
f such experimentation he
vrites to ask what I think would
e good for a case of chronic
irvhritis.
It might seem that after wait
ins! so long I should have a rem
edy to suggest for the poor geek.
But I haven't. Aside from simple
ai.algcsics or pain-killers 'and
various physical measures to
combat or prevent various com
olications. I just don't know of
anything that is likely to do any
ftreat good.
As I have been trying to tell
' ou children ever since Tony
vas a pup. this column is not a
long-distance clinic nor a mail
order therapeutic institute. My
rovince is physiology, hygiene
and health. I try to teach you
how to keep well and how to pre
vent disease. That's all.
Physicians recognized as au
thorities today generally agree
that it is not only impracticable
but useless to attempt to classify
rhronic joint disability under the
types above mentioned. They
;eem to regard these several
forms of chronic joint "inflam
mation'' as various manifesta
tions of physical degeneration, as
nearly as 1 can understand their
language.
Of course the term rheuma
tism has no particular meaning
even though a million gullible
leeks squander time and money
on medicines, diets, bath, queer
doctors and trick lamps in the
fatuous hope that the treatment
will do them good. If any one
gets any relief or notices any im
Drovemont in what ails him from
a course of treatment for rheu
matiz it is coincidental.
The term arthritis means joint
inflammation. If a patient con
sults a doctor for sore, lame, stiff
or painful joint or joints and the

doctor pronounces the trouble
arthritis and prescribes medicine,
diet or other measures by way of
treatment, the patient is dumb
customer and the doctor knows
it. It is as childish to believe
"arthritis" is a peculiar malady
due to this or that cause as it is
to believe rheumatiz is due to
damp climate, red meat or ex
posure. In most instances of chronic or
long-lastnig joint trouble called
"arthritis" there is no inflamma
tion at all. For that reason alone
the term arthritis doesn't even
convey a hint as to what really
ails the joint.
That other term, physical de
gtnorallon, conveys so much
meaning that we had better talk
about it another day.
