ADENOIDS AND TONSIIAS

There is a ring of tissue in the back of the throat known as the tonsil ring. This is composed, gen. orally speaking, of three sets of lynn phoid tissue. The larger masses are called the faucia1 tonsils. This con sists of compact tissue with crypts or pockets in it, and is what we re- fer to when we speak of tonsils alone.
 On the wall of the pharynx and back of the nose is another area of lymphatic tissue which is larger in children than in adults. This is the naso-pharyngial tonsil or, in usual terminology, adenoids. On the back of the tongue is a ring of small ele- vations of lymphatic tissue known as the lingua1 tonsil. We seld dom hear much of these.
 What is the function of this lynn phatic tissue? Is it to make lynn phatic cells, does it act as filter and protect, does it furnish an inter nal secretion, is it an eliminative or gan, has it to do with immunity? It is not fully known. It may have some of all these functions, if it is nor nal and healthy.
 However. whatever it's function is. it is probably the same as that of other lymphatic structures in the body. These Emphatic tissues are
 
 lymphatic tissue, the thousands of lymphatic glands, the patches in the alimentary canal, the tonsiI ring, and the thymus-a large organ in the chest in infancy and childhood. Be- cause there are so many lynnphatic structures in the body, if conditions arise so that it becomes necessary to have the tonsils or adenoids removed, there is no cause for worry for fear the system will be deprived of lynn phatfc tissue.
 Those who are in a position to know, say that the loss of these lynn phatic structures in the throat will not be missed any more than a small area of the skin would be missed if removed, If the tonsils and ade- holds were diseased or enlarged so that they caused an obstruction, the only thing that would be missed would be the many disorders that can be traced to diseased tonsils and obstruc- tive adenoids.

HEALTHY HAIR.

Several years ago I met a woman whose hair had shortened from far below the waistline to the shoulders. During the ten years it had taken to do this. the hair had become ex- tremely fine and brittle, while the quantity had lessened until the scalp would have shown through the hair had it not been for the fact that her hair was naturally curley and fluffed out over her head. As she was a woman of fine health. lived outdoors a great deal of her time and had never had dandruff nor any other scalp troubles, she felt that her lost hair was naturally curley and fuffed ton was one of the inevitable pro- cesses that went along with passing years. She deplored the loss but ac- cepted it, until the day she conffded to me that she would soon have to resort to transformation and switches.
 An examination showed that all of her hair had split ends. Some of these splits had extended many inches up the hair shafts. At every combing the hair broke off in pieces like dried grass. She had never realized that continual summing and airing the hair had dried it out. As she had a skin which was inclined to be inactive, there had never been sufficient secreting to allow for this drying process.
 This womans hair improved from the day the ends were clipped. It has grown to below the waistline, and new growths are succeeding each other all the time, each stronger and

FARMERS HELD
 SALVATION OF U. s,
Bumper Crops to Offset Bad Effects of Rail and Coal Strikes.
By w. H. ATKINS, International News Service Staff COrTeSnOndeut

Washington, Sept. 20.-The Amer ican n IarMer-the backbone of Amer 1can prosperity-provides the chief nope, through his bumper crops, that the country can go through the Win ter with a minimum of handicaps blowing the twin industrial strikes The farmer, according to officials of he Federal Reserve Board, is to have good season. He will get higher rrices than last season. He will have enough surplus to supply greater volume of goods to foreign buyers.
 While the strikes have cost billions of dollars in wages and other losses, the farms have gone ahead by their l increased output in rolling up more agricultural wealth.
 | The Federal Reserve Board fore sees many complex problems this win ters as an outgrowth of the strikes, 2 though the general business situa-
 ton is believed to be inherently sound.
 Business Is Active
 Business activity has kept up at a high level relatively, according to re-
 ports of bank agents. Labor dis
 ness somewhat suspended in many o1 the chief indutrial localities, where railroad and coal labor has been idle
 but the country as whole Is on g good footing, the reports declared. | Although the farmers have larger output and will reap larger prices, i is not improbable that they will fin6 some degree of disappointment in the rising price movements in different commodity groups. But their net gains over last year should be con-
 siderable because of their more favor. able crop and price records for the coming season.
 The corn and spring wheat growers
 are having one of their best seasons for many years. Cotton growers ot the South and Southwest face a pros porous season because of higher prices and less damage to the croI than was anticipated from the bo11- tweevil. Tobacco planters have pros poets of an excellent crop. Other
 rops are considerably above average Farmers Are Buyers
 1 Banking reports are careful to stress the fact that the farmers of the coun- try buy more than any other part o1 the country's population. When their purchasing power is strong it's a good
 sign of the financial and business flu l ture, all experts agree. The retailers
 and wholesalers alike feel the buoy ant effect of the farmers spending.

be attributed to adenoids and tonsils
 which are normal are: Deafness and
 earaches, mouth breathing, snoring,
 (caused by the tongue falling against
 the palate), night terrors, chronic
 andacute colds, running nose" (may
 be with blood stained rnucous),
 coughs thickened voice, backward
 headaches, lassitude inability to fix
 attention, bed-wetting, asthma, stam-
 mering, epileptic convulsions, etc.
 If there is an obstruction of the
 breathing long enough, there are
 changes produced in the bony struc-
 ture of the face and of the teeth. The face becomes elongated, the nose more or less collapsed, the upper lip short ened and retracted, with open mouth.
 This is the adenoid face. Any obstruc- tion of the breathing could cause this. There will also be changes in the chest bones and the child becomes pigeon breasted. A short time ago I gave you two papers on adenoids and tonsils with
 g. resume of the results in the cases of 5000 children who were operated on in the clinic at Rochester, New York. This resume showed that un- der ski1lfu1 removal there was hard | ly any element of danger and that
 the improvement in the symptoms of the children was very marked.
 If you find, after correcting your chi1d's diet and other of it's unhy- gienic habits, that the enlarged tom | sils and adenoids giving rise to these symptoms have mentioned, do not get better, then have a specialist remove | the offending structures.
 It is very rare that there is a | new growth of the tissue after re-
 moval. Occasionally, however, this | will happen, because it is impossible to remove the whole of the mucous l membrane of the throat which pro- | duces these structures. If your child | should be one of the rare cases, then an operation could be repeated, if ne- l cessary. I have given this paper today be- l cause have been reuested by many | mothers to talk more of this subject.

 Sinsnith comes back to Riavi1le, broke and sore. He falls in with Reedy Gibbs and man called Jimmy Roach, and together the three spend the time hunting for the jack mine, being at the same time on the look out for anybody that might show up with the chart of it's location Every now and then Sinsmith goes away on a hunt for Morehard's hid .ng-place, two weeks ago he comes back to Rioville, and tells Reedy Gibbs and Roach this story.

healthier than the old hair; yet there had been no other restorative meas ures used than clipping the ends every six weeks and a daily vigorous rnas- saging of the scalp.
 This woman's case is a typical one of deterioration from neglecting to clip the ends of the hair, which are inclined to split. The traditional clip ping at the time of the increasing moon had its Virtue because a regu- lar time was set to attend to this de- tail which is not so small as it seems to be to some people.
 At the end of the summer after the hair has been sunburned, there win be a great deal of splitting of the ends. They should be thoroughly clipped to insure a continuance of the health of the hair during the coming months. If the hair has become dried out also, use for a time a tonic in this woman did massage the scalp in it, as this will build up any scaIp to normally good health.

 IDEA NOT APPROVED
Mayor and McMahon Balk On S9,5OO Appropriation
 for That Purpose

The proposal to furnish the public amusementS commission with S9,50O with which, to carry on an all-year around playground movement meets with little favor on the part of Mayor Orson F. Curtis and r. s. Me Mahon, leaders respectively of the administra- ton policy and low-taX adherents.
 The proposition is one Of the few that are before the board of finance and taxation to which both ca mps eX- press opposition.
 Mayor Curtis fears that while the S9.50O item is quite high for con sideration at this time, there is danger that it may be increased considerably next year and subsequent tax lists will find it in for even higher amounts.
 He does not believe that much can he accomplished in the way of super >ising the play of 5000 to 10000 rhlluren with half q dozen instructors.
 MT. McMahon, while admitting that there are desirable features in the plan, does not feel that the city should eXpend such sums of money. Ade- ollate provision is made in the sum- luer months, he states. and in the few months that the grounds are closed he feels some amusements Of a less expensive nature can be provided.
