Unc I glance and the doctor knows that what she has are "He- b e r d e n ' s nodes." Interestingly, If one reads Dr. Hebcrden's original com ment made some 100 years ago. one finds that all he said was, "What are these nodules that women have near , the ends of their fin gers?" What Is sad is that today we doctors still don't know much more about the nodules than Hrbcrden did. The dis ease seems to be a special. mild form nl localized arth ritis, which probably will nev er bother the woman very I much. In only a very rare case will a little fluid form in u nodule and then It has to be removed perhaps inrough a hypodermic needle Tying Fallopian Tubas A man writes to say that he is very anxious to know what happens when a wom an's "tubes" are lied; he won ders if after the operalon his wife will retain all of her old affection for him. The man evidently has so little idea of the structure of a woman's body that he seems to fear that the lying of her tubes will have the same disastrous results as would be the re moval of her ovaries. Actually, the tying of a woman's tubes should have no detectable effects on her interests and feelings. All that the operation can do is to make it impossible for her to have children. The fallopian tubes come off of the upper end of the womb and run out toward the ovaries. When a woman ovulates, a tiny microscopic ovum (like an egg) leaves the ovary: it is picked up in the trumpet like outer end of the nearby tube, and is then carried In to the womb. If, on its way through the tube, it has been fertilized by a spermatozoon, it will become fastened to a spot on the wall of the womb where, if all goes well, in 9 months it will have developed Into an infant, ready to oe born. Many women are sterile because some disease has caused their tubes to become closed. When perhaps a wom an is seriously ill with tuber culosis, or a very bad heart. or very bad kidneys or B men tal breakdown, and a prcg- nacy could put an end to her life, she and her husband may ask a surucun to cut the tubes across and then tic the cut end together in such a way that no ovum can ever get through. On rare occasions, we phy sicians see a woman who, after having had this opera tion performed, wants it un done. After having recovered her health, and having lost her first husband, she may have married another man who now much wants to have a son and heir. A surgeon can open up the tubes, but he cannot promise to do so good a job that the woman will be able to bear a living child. A needless hysterectomy is an operation which some Forum Series Is Set at Stanford Five members of the inter national "who's who" in lib eral arts and education will speak at Stanford university, April 11 to 25 in a forum series on "The RevItaHzatlon of the Liberal Arts," spon sored by Stanford Today and Tomorrow.

Taylor Associate Sponsor 'r Furlhir Information - Mr. Taylor - or 773-5125 Johnny-on-the-spot baby - sit. ler. There are times when all eight barge in, demanding to be fed, and then they leave the little ones and go shopping or to the drive-in movies. My husband is no help. He urges them to come, eggs them on. and then dozes in front of TV the whole time without lifting a hand Nancy R. My mother threatens lo quit baby-sitting for us, but I'm sure her threats apply to me, not my brother. He's her favorite and she'll never refuse him. I think what she's really after money from us. Once she told me to pay her what I'd pay a stranger. I told her I'd rather give the money to a stranger that a grandmother shouldn't ask for pay. But I'll hand over money if she makes my broth er do the same. His bunch eats her out of house and home. The Council: Mrs. M. is right to protest against run ning a drive-in "service-station" for her children. She's reminding them that she's a person, not another labor-saving gadget. As for Grandpa, he'd stop being so generous with the invitations if Grand ma slipped out the back door, while the parents were wav ing Ta-Ta from the front one. She can find a neighbor's TV lo watch while hospitable hubby scrambles eggs and un scrambles babies. . .Certainly Mrs. M. would respond in the clutch, as any normal mother. But routine baby-sitting must be at her invitation, by pre vious arrangement, with the right to say No lo two out of three requests. After paying others to baby-sit, Nancy may appreciate that her mother's assistance is beyond price.
