Interestingly, If one reads
Dr. Hebcrden's original com

ago. one finds that all he
said was, "What are these

we doctors still don't know
much more about the nodules
than Hrbcrden did. The dis

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.

be fed, and then they leave the

to the drive-in movies. My

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.

Special 4-dr. sedan tops all Class D middle size cars with V-8 engines in Mobil Economy Run!
Here's official proof of everything you've heard about
the Buick Special V-8 with Dual Path Turbine Drive.
It's a terrific performer a shameless gag miser. Facts:
it's beaten every V-8, big or small, three years running.
This year, by at least 2.34 mpg! And with regular gas.
Of course, not everyone can get this winning gas
mileage in everyday driving (Run drivers are trained
experts the engines, finely tuned). But this rough,
tough 2500-mile lest proves how much real gas economy
is built into every Special.
And the Special has lots more going for it. Like
choice of three smooth, snappy transmissions. An eco
nomical V-6, if you prefer (only Buick has it!). All
thoroughly Buick. All amazingly low priced.
