Hope Can Help a Sick Person Some time ago I kept receiv ing letters from people much interested in the story of the so-called doctor who fled this country to avoid being jailed for having swindled people with a fake cure for baldness. All students of quackery know that a man like this may one day be swindling bald people; the next month he may be swindling people with arthritis, and next, he may turn to the most profitable game of all that of swindling people with incurable cancer. No physician was surprised then on hearing that this man, on reaching Canada, immedi ately decided to concoct a "cure" for arthritis. He took some powerful male and fe male hormones, he mixed them, and started giving hem to patients. A magazine wrote an article about him which gave him the wide publicity he need ed, and soon people from vari ous parts of the United States were jumping on a train or a plane to go to Canada to get some of the "wonderful medi cine." In a few months, in medical journals, I read re ports of women who, having taken the powerful hormones, began to bleed severely from tlie womb. One of them died. Became Comfortable Then I received a letter from some good people who told me that their arthritic mother was one of the persons who went to Canada to get the medicine, and that after taking it, she was comfortable. I was not sur prised at this because, as my able friend, Professor Stewart Wolf, of the University of Okla homa, has often shown, when we physicians try out on a num ber of our patients a new drug, about which we are hopeful, about half of the recipients will promptly report that they are better. But Dr. Wolf soon found that half of these people will get the same relief if given a capsule containing only sugar. The only trouble with the sugar is that soon the people say it no longer is working well. This is why, many years ago, a wise doctor advised a friend to take a certain new medicine quick, "while it was still cur ing." Whenever I hear of a striking improvement in the health of a person with a scattered can cer who has recently taken a worthless quack cure I am re minded of a story I heard when I was a medical student. It was supposed to be the true story of what happened when a physician received two let ters fron old patients who, bo'h of them begged him to "come out with it," and tell them the real truth about their situation. One was an old hypochondri- Starting With Qualified Trade t. ORGANS ( CONSOLES STEREO , COMPONENTS Jy GAZER?)

The doctor wrote each patient the truth, but in mailing the letters, he carelessly sent the one about hopeless tuberculosis to the hypochondriac, and the one about silly worries to the man with the tuberculosis. As a result, the man with tuber culosis felt so "bucked up" he got out of bed; he went back to work, and got well; while the hypochondriac was so appalled that he took to his bed and died. It is conceivable that this could have happened. Certainly, when I was a boy in Hawaii, my physician father used to see na tives who, when told they were being "prayed to death" by a witch doctor, just sat down on a mat, and in ten days or so were dead. The other day I received a letter from an intelligent wom an with a cancer who said, "Yes; you were right; that can cer quack took my 450 dollars, and now, after two months of relief my painful tumor is back. But I am not angry because, during the two months in which I thought I was cured, I felt well, I ate well, I gained weight, and I slept at night! Scaled Fate But another type of story was just told me by a fine mother who is now heart-broken and full of terrible feelings of guilt because some months ago she made a wrong decision and thereby sealed her daughter's fate. What happened was that when the daughter got a highly malignant black cancer on her hand, and the family doctor wisely wanted immediately to cut it all out, the mother de murred. She took the child to a quack who tried to burn the cancer out with an antiquated paste. When, with this, the growth rapidly spread, the mother became alarmed and hurried to a surgeon, but by then it was too late: nothing could be done, and the child soon passed away. The other day I received an angry letter from a man be cause I had said I had never heard of a secret "cancer cure" that had eventually proved to have some value. With time, they have all been forgotten. My correspondent said he knew a man who had taken a quack cancer cure and had lived for 12 years; he thought this one case proved I was wrong. I could have told the man of many patients I have known who had their liver full of can cer; they took no medicine, and they lived many years.

But nobody can be said truly to be abreast of the times un less he also audits one or more trade publications. These specialized journals frequently carry items, outside the scope of the general media, that reflect fundamental chang es in the warp and woof of our society. Particularly the woof. I ran across a good example of this the other day while thumbing through a back issue of an oil industry publication It was among the reading ma terial in my dentist's waiting room, My dentist lets his patients deaden their nerves on litera ture and then charges them for novocaine. This item appeared under the heading Women Play Greater Role in Care of Family Autos." Which is the kind of cheery news a person likes to read in a dental office.

Try and Stop Me By BENNETT CERF Ci OODY ACE was present in a beauty parlor in Beverly T hills when a very pretty girl refused to allow the opera lo to restore a blonde glow to her naturally dark hair. "Your hair really needs touch ing up," insisted the oper ator, "and I assure you we can do it every bit as well as they do it back East." "Impossible," sigh ed the pretty girl. "I may be here in Beverly Hills, but my roots are in New York."

"We want you to be toastmastcr at our big- banquet Kriday night. It will be held at the Astor Hotel just a few blocks from where you are now, go it will cause you a minimum of trouble.

STONE'S TV 1119 East Jackson 1 Year Guarantee on ALL Parts Including FREE Labor SV X3ICK WEST While Waiting in Dentist's Office The headline, however, proved 10 oe misleading. The article it self began as follows: "Recent surveys indicate that America's 36 million women drivers are making more and more decisions about the fami ly s automotive service." Then it went on to say that "33 per cent of women drivers select specific service stations 25 per cent decide which brand of gasoline to buy; 21 per cent make the decisions on minor re pairs and oil changes; 18 per cent on battery purchases; and 17 per cent on new tires. Although this was not the role I had in mind, I nevertheless found the statistics absorbing. I couldn't help but wonder who makes these decisions for the other 67, 75, 79, 82 and 83 per cent. Not All Married Their husbands? That might be true in some cases, but not all of America's 36 million wom en drivers are married. If only 33 per cent of them select specific service stations, then it must be assumed that some women just keep on driv ing until they run out of cas. "Didn't you notice that the gauge registered empty?" "Yes, but I couldn't decide which station to patronize." Stranger things have hap pened. Also, note that while 33 per cent select the station, only 25 per cent select the brand of gasoline. This implies that 8 per cent pick a brand and then stop at a station that sells another brand. Stranger things than that have happened, too.
