CLUB NOTES.
Wisconsin.-Dr. David H. Reeder.
Laporte, Indiana.-Dear Doctor: Will
you be SO kind as to answer me per-
tanning to the following: l have a
little girl, 70 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.
I object to the surgical treatment of
enlarged tonsils about as vigorously
as the average mother does. l 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 | 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 O
cure.
Tlinois.-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. I was a great suf-
ferer from constipation and piles. l
ate from one to three apples every
night, generally one, which was
enough, and I was not troubled with
constipation or piles all winter. So I
know by experience that they are very
beneficial. l used to laugh at my faith
er when he wanted me to eat them at
night. l now tell all Of my friends to
eat them, but be sure to chew them
well, and not swallow them in chunks.
I trust that others will try this, as it
certainly Is not at all a disagreeable
method. Respectfully,
Miss G.
I would suggest that all who have
the opportunity to use the above
method do so, as 1t is a very whole
some one, and certainly can cause no
harmful results. l would be pleased
to receive other contributions along
the same line, from members of the
club. Pass it on"
Missouri.-Dr. David III. Reeder, La
porte, Indiana.-Dear Doctor: I notice
in our paper that you will answer
questions regarding health. Although
I have eaten only what | thought
would agree with me for more than
year past, l find that my stomach
becomes quite large, and seems to be
filled with gas. l have not eaten ba- |
con, ham, pickles, pepper, vinegar,
ETC., for a year, nor have !
drunk coffee for two years. l. 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. l take three or
four baths a week, but it seems to do |
very little good. Such a condition |
makes one very v at times. Per
haps l eat too much or too hurriedly. /
Sometimes I never eat any supper, and
often miss breakfast. For breakfast
to-day I ate some crackers and stewed
for dinner, roast beef, pota-
toes, four slices of bread and a glass |
Of milk; for supper, a handful of I'M
prunes and some crackers.
What shall one do-what occupation
IS the best for one so affected? II you
will kindly give MT some advice I will
be very grateful, and will closely fol-
ow your method of treatement.-Re-
;pectfully, j. M. C.
1t is not so much what you eat, In
his case, as your selection of food is
rood, but l am inclined to think that
he major portion of your trouble is
caused by the way you eat. For one
week begin each meal with a piece of
yery hard dry toast or zweibach and

like liquid in the mouth. Take
Ibsolutely no liquids while eating, but
nasticate every particle Of your food
is long as there is anything left to
.hew. Drink an abundance OF water
,etween meals, and you can soon ca.
hree meals daily and feel well.
