QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Had Infantile PARALYSIS

Mrs G. B. writes: II have a child
three years old The doctor says that
she has had mild attack of infantile
paralysis some time ago. He says
that her legs need massaging. Would
it be wise to use olive oil in massag-
ing? Kindly advise me-"

would be beneficial.
May Mean Infection
R. ]. 7. writes "For some time
have been troubled with numbness and
pain in my hands and arms. And now
my legs are stiff and my left hip
pains Would this all come from my
teeth? I am 43 years old"
Reply-These symptoms may be the
result of infection. 1t is possible that
the infection may be in the gums or
teeth. Why not have your teeth X
rayed? Then have your dentist ex-
anime the films, The infection may
be in the tonsils, sinuses, or in any one
or more of several other places in the
body. 1t would be a good idea to
have your doctor examine you,

WHISKERSAND
LONGEVITY
A Treatise on Health by E. P.
ConWell

S0HWeli
| saw man with wiskers in Red
Lodge the other day. They are indeed
very attractive but somehow when one
encounters a bunch of them he in
stinctively thinks of germs and rather
expects to see a mouse nest fall out
of EN-. A set of them attracts atten-
ton now but time was not so very
long ago that man over Is years
of age without either Van Dyke or
goatee or sideburns or a full beard
was not considered as being fully
dressed and was. to all intents and
purposes, socially ostracised.
But, how times have changed. Wo-
men wore hair and earbobs and under
clothes then and if you wanted to
start a scandal you had but to whisper
it about that some girl used powder.
Aside from goats nobody wore whis-
kers except that sublime product of
booze and breakfast food known as
civilized man and just how it was
that children survived and grew up
under such germ ridden conditions is
one of the great riddles of the ages.
But they did. They are the staid
and steady fathers and mothers of to-
day and most of them can spot their
children several balls right today and
then skunk them in the game of long
evity.
Quaint old days those. Men voted
straight and worked hard and paid
their bills and lived within their
means. Women worked hard too,
stayed at home once in a while and
knew how to cook a few minor Wet
uals without the aid of home demon
strator, and the young folks of that
age used to be able to get vast
amount of kick out of just viewing
moonshine instead of drinking it.
With the changing times whiskers
had to go because they were and are
unsanitary, like public drinking cups
and kisses and rag carpets. In their
stead we now have such pure and holy
devices as lip sticks and synthetic
gin and sanitary drinking fountains
where one has to stick his nose into
stream of sanitary water like a bird
If he wants to slake his thirst. Of
course, we have backed the germs
clear off the board but what [ am
driving at is that you will notice with
out putting on your specks that sew
eral new diseases are invented each
year to take the places Of the ones
we have discarded. 1t looks as if
Heaven will not be denied its full
quota of new angels regardless of
science and progress.
Understand now, this is not intended
as plea for the return of whiskers.
1t isn't even as defense of them. 1t
is simply to express the opinion that
the reason Methuselah and Noah and
Jared and so many Of their old cronies
were cut off at such a tender age was
not because they wore elongated Van
Dykes but because they were SO care
less in their habits.
High blood pressure and hardening
of the arteries was the least of their
troubles and as for having their ton
sils removed or their appendices ex-
tracted sufferin' cats! if you wanted
to start rough house you had but to
such a thing to one of them.
Take Jared for instance. He was
not what you would call a bachelor.

Growing Pains

NIOA Ill
A long time ago when little Johnny
complained of pain in his joints and
muscles, somebody thought that they
had figured out the reason Johnny
had those pains because he was grow
inel Just why the normal process of
s with should in itself be painful was
- ~ aaed. But it was taken for
& tea. Rerhaps, is seemed logical
to conclude that because the pains
were somewhat vague, and occurred
during childhood, the period of
growth, they must in some way be in
timately associated with growth.
That may, or may not, have been
the way in which the fleeing pains
that occur in the joints and muscles of
children came to be labeled growing
pains" Anyway, that is the label that
is still too often plastered onto such
pains.
What happened to Johnny after his
complaint had been thus duly labeled
and neglected-may have been
about as follows.
After he had had his so-called grow
ing pains for while, he probably
came down with an acute attack of
rheumatism. The rheumatism may
have followed an attack of sore throat
For Johnny had often had attacks of
tonsilitis. During the attack af rheu-
matism Johns heart probably gave
quite lot of trouble, for rheumatism
IN children very frequently attacks the
heart.
Heart Might Be Damaged
But, even though Johnny had bad
attack of rheumatism and was sick in
bed for quite a while, he finally got
well enough to be up and around. In
the course of time, he seemed to be
as well as ever. But was he? There
is a probability that he went through
life handicapped to some extent by a
damaged heart. With reasonable care
he was probably able to carry-on in a
fairly satisfactory manner. But his
damaged heart probably placed more
or less restriction upon the amount of
his activity.
Now it may be that Johnny escaped
an attack of acute rheumatism. He
may even have been lucky enough to
escape everything except the growing
pains. Or instead of having rheu-
matism he may have become nervous
and inclined to twitch. His nervous
ness grew worse until he spent much
OF his time and energy in going
through lot of purposeless motions.
1t was clear that Johnny had st.
Vltus' dance, or chorea, as the doctors
call it.
Everything that has been said about
Johnny may just as well apply to his
sister. She is more likely to have had
chorea, as this disease is two or three
times as frequent in girls as in boys.
But what has all of this to do with
growing pains? Just this. So-called
growing pains often indicate the pres
ence of the kind of infection that
causes rheumatism. And rheumatism
in children is very likely to attack the
heart Growing pains, diseased ton
sis, rheumatism, heart disease and
st. Vitus' dance often seem to be
closely related.
One way in which to prevent heart
disease in children is by having a
careful search made for the cause of
all so-called growing palms,

direction. Starting with one small store in
Wyoming in 1902, branch Stores continued to
appear year after year until today-twenty-
three years 1ater-there are 676 branches
