"why should we always listen

conference he complained about
the refusalcpf the United States
to recognize the Peiping regime
and permit the "rightful restora

withhpjd recognition of Commu
nist China "for 10 or 100 years
feit China will not topple."
The same theme was reiter
ated in a joint communique
signed by Chou and Ceylon's
Premier Solomon Bandaranaike.

Care of Youngster's First
Teeth Important to Health
(Editor's note: This is an- '
other in a series of articles
discussing dental health. The
material is furnished by the
Southern Oregon Dental So
ciety in cooperation with the
American Dental association
in observance of National
Children's Dental Health
Week. Feb. 3-9).
The youngster's first teeth
are just as important as his per
manent teeth
The care given baby teeth
can often mean the difference
between life-long dental health
and a need for artificial den
tures in young adulthood. .
The tooth buds for the child's
first teeth begin to form about
the sixth week of prenatal life.
Calcification begins about the
16th week, and by birth a large
part of the crowns of the teeth
is already formed.
First Teeth
The first teeth start to ap
pear when the infant is about
seven and one-half months old
and they continue to come in
until the child is about two.
When he is about six years
old, the baby teeth begin to be
shed normally and the process
goes on until he is about 12.
The early loss of the first
teeth, through decay or any
other reason, can have serious
effects because it can result in
crowding and severe disarrange
ment of the second teeth.
One' of the chief functions of
the first teeth is to maintain
space for the eruption of per
manent teeth into the right
place. When a baby tooth is lost
too soon, the adjacent teeth tend
to shift and fill the space, caus
ing the new teeth to come in
out of position.
Other Reasons
There are other reasons why
sound and healthy first teeth
are important. They are neces
sary for proper mastication of
food. They help to make a child
speak clearly. And they give
graceful form and symmetry to
the face.
The first permanent teeth to
appear are six-year molars which
come in when the child is about
six years old. They erupt at
about the same time that the
youngster is losing his front
baby teeth.
There are four of these six
year molars and each is the
sixth tooth back from the front
center of the mouth. The posi
tion of these molars helps to de
termine both the position of the
other teeth and the shape of
the lower part of the face.
The loss of the six-year molar
is a serious matter and, unfor
tunately, it is this tooth that is
most frequently lost, mostly be
cause of decay and neglect.

A Rupture After An Operation or after they grow older. Actual-
It is unfortunate that, with
all the advances in surgery,
there are many ruptures after
a b d o m mal
opera t ions,
and especally
those in which
the wound is
a long one. Al
ways, today, a
good surgeon,
after an ab
dominal oper
ation, c 1 o ses
the wound Dr Alvrr
with a series of suturlngs. First,
he will close the peritoneum,
which lines the abdomuial
cavity. Then he will bring to
gether one or two "fascias" or
tough membranes, several sets
of muscles, and finally, the
skin. But even with all this care,
hernias can form. Often they
are, due to the fact, that, after
the' operation, the person, who
perhaps is a heavy smoker, gets
a bad cough. He coughs and
coughs until he breaks open the
wound. Sometimes he has to be
taken back to the operating
room to be sewed up agin.
Usually it is well to have such
a rupture repaired soon. If one
waits until the sac is very large,
and most of the bowel is out
under the skin, it will be very
hard, even for the ablest sur
geon, to get rid of the hernia.
Any chain-smoker or smoker of
three packs a day, who is con
templating an operation, had
better quit his smoking for a
few months before the opera
tion so that his lungs can get
cleaned out. Then, perhaps, he
won't cough his head off after
the operation. No anesthetist
wants to give a general anes
thetic to a person who is a
heavy smoker. His bronchi (the
tubes that carry air in and out
of the lungs) are usually chron
ically inflamed, and hence like
ly to be irritated by any ether
that has to be used.
Woman Who Talked Back
A number of the women who
have read my note on impotence
in the Reader's Digest have
flared up and have written me
pretty tartly in regard to my
statement that, in many cases,
the man's impotence is due to
the fact that his wife has allow
ed herself to get fat and unat
tractive. A woman from Texas
who does not tell me if she is
stout, . says, "Most women are
sick and tired of this argument."
She feels that we physicians are
the ones at fault, because we
haven't been able to tell women
why they tend to get over
weight after they have children

We Carry Our Own Contracts
ly, I think we physicians can
easily tell them what their
trouble is. It is that they get too
hungry and eat too much. What
we cannot yet tell them is how
to avoid getting his ravenous ap
petite! My correspondent goes on to
ask, "Just how many men keep
from getting overweight and un
attractive after they have been
married some years? They get
pot-bellied, bald-headed, wrin
kled, baggy-eyed, slow, and
self-satisfied; and they think
they are still God's gift to wo
men and the world; they think
that any woman should love
them no matter how stout or
unattractive they get!"
The lady thinks that much
impotence can be traced to the
man's ancestors, and I think she
is right. Many a man who has
inherited from some ancestors
a tendency to depression or
schizophrenia or a lack of in
terest in women is rarely very
sexual; he rarely has much sex
ual interest or drive. As a young
man he may never have cared
for women, or he may have been
very shy with them. Naturally,
he tends to lose what little in
terest he has by the time he is
40 or so. Other men who were
born with about as much sexual
interest in men as in women,
soon lose what interest they had
in the wife they married not
for love, but just to get a home.
Knocked Out by Mother
As my correspondent goes on
to say, some of the men who
show little interest in sex had
some of that knocked out of
them by a sexhating mother. She
gave them the idea that sex is
dirty and something to be
ashamed of, or to be used only
on rare occasions for the pro
creation of children. These mo
thers did not know that sex can
be a beautiful caress that can
keep two people together, very
happy, for 50 years or more.
My correspondent is angry be
cause she thinks that my men
patients have been complaining
to me of their wives and their
frigidity. But in this she is
wrong. In my experience, while
a man will often complain bit
terly to his wife that she is "no
good, and frigid, and without
response," when he goes to a
physician he rarely says any
thing about his sex life; he does
not then criticize his wife.
My correspondent says, "Let's
have another column giving the
wife some credit for sticking by
some of these old fossils and
loving them until the end. Some
of the women who stick by these
old characters until the end
need a medal instead of crit
icism." I think she is right. I have
often marveled at the way in
which a woman who, for most
of her life has had no reason
to love a crabbed, husband, has
stayed with him. I have often
marveled even more at the signs
of deep love shown by a woman
toward an alcoholic husband
who has caused her endless un
happiness. Dr. Alvarez hopes his readers
will understand that it would be
impossible for him to answer
requests for information or to
attempt to diagnose by mail.

CONSTIPATED?
New laxative discovery un-Iocks bowel blocks
without gag, bloat or gripe
Constipation is caused by hat doc
tors call a "thrifty" colon th t- instead
of retaining moisture as it should,
does the opposite: robs the colon of
so much moisture that its contents
become dehydrated, so dry that they
block the bowel; so shrunken that
they fail to excite or stimulate the
urge to purge that propels and expels
waste from your body.
To regain normal regularity, the dry,
shrunken, constipating contents of
your colon which now block your
bowel must be remoistened. Second,
bulk must be brought to your colon
to S-T-R-E-T-C-H STIMULATE it to
action; to a normal urge to purge.
And, of all laxatWes, only Colon a id,
the" amazing new laxative discoveiy
possesses Colonaid5 great moisturiz
ing capacity, plus Colonmd's stretch'
stimulating bulk. So effective it re
lieves even chronic constipation over
night, Colonaid is yet so smooth, so
gentle it has proved safe even for
women in critical stages of pregnancy.
Superior to old style bulk, salt or drug
laxatives, Colonaid neither gags,
bloats nor gripes; won't interfere with
absorption of vitamins and other valu
able food nutrients; in clinical tests,
did not cause rash or other reactions.
Its a physiological fad: Exercise tones
your body! And Colonaid exercises
your colon to tone it against constipa
