!. Fl. -. ~'.5 = CLUB NOTES.
Wisconsin.--Dr. David II. Reeder,
Laporte, Indiana.-Dear Doctor: Will
you be SO kind as to answer me per-
tanning to- the following: have a
little girl, ~ years old, who is very
much troubled with tonsilitis---sore
throat The doctor says that the only
cure is to cut the tonsils out. The
child has been troubled this way since
last fall. Will you please tell me If
there is any other method Of treat
ment for her?-Mrs. H. w. 5:, -.
I object to the Surgical treatment of
enlarged tonsils about as vigorously
as the average mother does. I have
seen a great deal of that kind of work
and have also seen such cases treated
without surgery, and the result was
more satisfactory. The method which
I advocate is the use of the tissue ele-
ments, of which I have often spoken
and found them the natural and safe
home remedies for all such troubles.
You should also have the club lecture
on catarrh, as the exercises given in
the lecture would greatly aid in q
cure.
Illinois.-Dr. David H. Reeder, La
porte, Indiana.-Dear Doctor: You ask
those that have been helped by the
Home Health club suggestions to
''pass it on" and I want to tell what
apples did for me. was a great suf-
ferer from constipation and piles. I
ate from one to three apples every
night. generally one, which was
enough, and was not troubled with
constipation or piles all winter. So I
know by experience that they are very
beneficial. used to laugh at my faith
er when he wanted me to eat them at
night. now tell all of my friends to
eat them, but be sure to chew them
we'll, and not swallow them in chunks.
trust that others will try this, as it
certainly is not at all disagreeable
method. Respectfully,
Miss G.
I would suggest that all who have
the opportunity to use the above
method do SO, as it is very whole
some one, and certainly can cause no
harmful results. I would be pleased
to receive other contributions along
the same line, from members of the
club. "Pass it on
Barnesville-Dr. David H. Reeder,
Laporte, Indiana. - Dear Doctor:
Would you please tell me if lemon
juice will injure the hair. I have
used it for dandrun and find it very
good. One Of my neighbors told me
there was too much acid, and it would
leave the hair too dry. Having OBJ
tanned much benefit from your lectures
in this paper, thought would write
you for advice. Respectfully. S. NJ.
I do not think lemon juice will in
jure your hair, but if the skin of your
entire body is kept in good health the
use of any kind of remedy
for dandruff would be unnecessary.
You will find full instructions for
treatment of the scalp in the club lee
lures.
Missouri.-Dr. David H. Reeder. La
porte, Indiana.-Dear Doctor: notice
in our paper that you will answer
questions regarding health. Although
have eaten only what I thought
would agree with me for more than
a year past, l find that my stomach
becomes quite large, and seems to be
filled with gas. have not eaten ba-
con, ham, pickles, pepper, vinegar,
spices, ETC., for year, nor have I
drunk coffee for two years. I work
hard out of doors, and never drink
anything but water and milk. Some
times an odor seems to come from my
body just after eating. and it is so
disagreeable that one hates to go to
entertainments, etc. I take three Or
four baths week, but it seems to do
very little good. Such condition
makes one very nervous at times. Per
Sometimes never eat any supper, and
often miss breakfast. For breakfast
to-day ate some crackers and stewed
prunes, for dinner, roast beef, pota-
toes, four slices of bread and a glass
of milk; for supper, a handful of un-
cooked prunes and some crackers.
What shall one do-what occupation
is the best for one so affected? If you
will kindly give me some advice I will
be very grateful, and will closely fol-
low your method of treatement.--Re-
specially, J. NJ. c.
It is not so much what you eat, in
this case, as your selection of food is
good, but I am inclined to think that
the major portion of your trouble ia
caused by the way you eat. For one
week begin each meal with a piece of
very hard dry toast or zweibach and
chew it. each particle of it, until it be-
comes like liquid in the mouth. Take
absolutely no liquids while eating, but
masticate every particle Of your food
as long as there is anything left to
chew. Drink an abundance Of water
between meals, and you can soon ca.
three meals daily and feel well.

erty to inquire for. Information per-
