QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Question: Mrs. S. r. B. writes:
my husband has such bad head
aches. The doctor tells him It Is
caused by the large artery leading
from his heart to his head having
limo in it. Can you advise what to
dot" III.
Answer: Your husband doubtless
has hardening Of the arteries which
can be at least partially cured by
living on . careful diet which is CONF
paratively free from all grain foods.
He should use large quantities of
fruits, especially the acid fruits. The
action Of these fruits in the body
helps to dissolve the calcareous de-
posits which form In the tissues of
the arteries.
Question: L. H. writes: "Please
tell me through your question and
answer department what foods or
combinations of foods produce acid in
the kidneys. Is milk or buttermilk
good in the above :"
Answer: Normal urine has a
slightly acid reaction. When too
much starch, sugar, or protein are
used, there will be an over-acidity
Of the urine produced. There Is sci.
dom any reason for trying to pro.
duce more acid in the urine, but the
diet treatment which is usually ad-
vised in all kinds Of kidney derange.
ments is one which will reduce the
acid rather than increase it. A milk
or buttermilk diet is an excellent
treatment for adjusting metabolism,
and to assist in balancing the guam
tity and quality Of urine SO as to
make it less irritating.
Question: C. ]. S. asks: evil you

The Canal Almost Outgrown

A New York engineer, addressing the New
York Chamber of Commerce, predicts that the
Panama Canal either must be enlarged in a
few years or duplicated by second inter-
ocean waterway.
1.-THE Panama Canal now" he says, "has al
most reached the point where it cannot handle
the trade passing through it,"
This is interesting. 1t was only few years
ago that calamity howlers were calling the big
canal useless burden, asserting that it was
not being used enough to justify it's existence
One hopes that they heard this engineer
speech.

Decline of Social Call"

Legion are the sins of the automobile. Blame
for undermining the morals Of youth is placed
1t its oft assaulted door. In it the American
Empire is said to be declining to it's ultimate
fall. Paternity of that precocious child, the
partial-payment plan, is attributed to it by
those who see in it force that is rapidly de-
stroying the once sound economic structure of
the nation. Have not boys and girls from the
farms driven away in it to the city? Have not
moralists and sentimentalists accused it Of
breaking the home circle? In fact, where is
there so-caled social evil of today that this
satanic invention hasn't had a hand in?
If it Is true that the automobile has brought
all these ills upon humanity, it has more than
compensated for them by one blessing it has
brought. This boon to mankind is the aboli-
ton Of that ancient and overworked custom Of
the "social call"
Anyone who attempts to find an old friend

Where Science Can't Go

It used to be said that fool who knew he
was fool was really no fool at all, but wise
man.
Similarly, it seems that the more modern,
science learns, the more it realizes that !;
knows very little, after all.
To be sure, there are pseudo-scientists who
seem to feel that they have tackled the uni
verse neatly down on their dissecting tables
and have laid bare most Of It's secrets But
scientists of the first rank-thc Millikans,
Pupins, Bantings and the rest--are free to adj
NIT that each advance In knowledge brings
only new mystery, more difficult than the
last.
Consider, for instance, the case Of medicine
and the art Of healing.
A few centuries ago physicians knew rather
less about the human body than an intelligent
seventh-grade school child knows today. The
remedy for every ailment, from nun,ps to bull
let wounds, was to bleed the patient; and doc
tors, for this reason. were called "leeches."
Today the physician has knowledge that his
18th century predecessor never dreamed OF.
He talks of germs and serums and vitan1ins
and glandular extracts and processes OF I'M
munization In way that would have dumb
founded the wisest medical man on earth .
century ago. Death rates have been reduced
and the life span has been increased.
And yet-how much more does the doctor
Of today really know? He has classified vitann-
ms, for instance; but what they are, exactly,
and why they do what they do, are still mat
tiers for inspired guessing. The common cold
in the head is still problem. Cancer is still
dreadful mystery.
A few generations ago a physician could
learn all he needed to know in . few years.
Today he must study for years before he even
begins to practice: and if he wishes, he Gun
study for a lifetime and still remain partly
in the dark.
Medical science is discussed here because it
is typical of all sciences. Educated people to-
day do not believe in astrology; yet the best
astronomer living will admit that his know
edge Of the stars is such knowledge AZ an ant
may have Of the oak tree that towers above his
ant hill
Added knowledge brings only added mystery.
Men are forever pushing back the curtains Of
ignorance finding, beyond, new puzzles
md new difficulties. The frontier Is forever
receding. Life, and death, and the world about
rs, are still as strange and unknown as they
we're in the days of Abraham.
Napoleon, en- route to Egypt listened to his
pfficers discussing atheism and denying the
existence of God. He smiled, flung his hand
upward to the stars that wheeled across the
Mediterranean sky, and said:
Every well, gentlemen-who made that?"
And his question, for all our knowledge. for
I'll our research, for all our formulas, takes
the same answer and as it took then.
