see Toeci ON hts return. and Palmieri sued out

ConcerninE Appendicitis.

DIR. II. r. Lemen of Alton, Ills. says
~ often meet people who have such a
wholesome fear of appendicitis that they
do not eat grapes, tomatoes, figs or
fruits containing little seeds because of
fear that these seeds will lodge in the
appendix and cause appendicitis
Whenever / hear person say he
denies himself fruits because of this
fear l take occasion to assure him that
it is useless to take any such precau-
tions. If you like fruit. eat it. for ap-
pendicitis. seven in ten instances, is
due to other things than seeds Little
particles of food of any kind can lodge
in the appendix and produce appendi-
citis. even a bread crumb being capable
Of it In addition, great many cases
are caused by something entirely out
side the appendix. something causing
the Inflammation.
ITO all would say. Go ahead and
eat anything you like. for all precau-
tions you may take are not going to
save you from appendicitis if you are
going to have it. The inexplicable
things to which the majority of cases
are attributable cannot be guarded
against. and it is useless to fight the
minority
