true of the knee joint, between the
upper and lower legs, and between
the kneecap and the joint.
Housemaid's knee il an acute in
Illumination of the sac or bursa that
lies in front Of the knee. This dis
ease is often mistaken for an inflam-
nation of the synovial membrane of
the knee joint. In the latter dis
ease the kneecap is thrown away
forward and there is much swelling
at the sides of the knee, but with
housemaid's knee, the swelling is
superficial and mostly in front Of
the kneecap. The treatment Of the
latter is to rest the knee and to
apply cold applications. If pus
forms from a chronic infection, it
may be necessary to have the sac
opened to permit drainage.
An inflammation of the synovial
membrane or sac Of the knee is also
common occurrence, most frequent
ly found in those Of q rheumatic
tendency. In this trouble an ex-
cessive amount Of fluid forms in the
synovial membrane causing a rapid
increase in pain and swelling. If
long continued, an inflammation of
the entire joint may result in severe
arthritis and cause a destruction of
the ligaments Of the joints, and even
Of the ends Of the bones.
Chronic synovitis inflammation

occurs after serious diseases, such as
smallpox, scarlet fever, gonorrhea.
pyemia, etc. This inflammation NAV

permanently cripple the joint with

may be attacked by tuberculosis.
Children are frequently affected
with inflammation of the long bones
which is known as growing pains"
and which may extend to the joints
and produce synovitis.
Chronic synovitis is usually pre-
disposed by very chronic condition
OF toxic poisoning and one can not
expect cure within a few days.
Focal points of infection should be
treated by your doctor and you
should also employ cleansing fast
to assist in absorbing the toxic ma
terials irritating the joints. 1t is
usually necessary to employ an in.
ltlal fast of from eight to fifteer
days, followed by a we'll balanced
diet for about a month, and then q
shorter fast Of perhaps five days.
which may be repeated at intervals
until the inflammation has subsidized.
1t is usually advisable that your doc
tor employ diathermy electric treat
ments on the joint to assist in bring
ing a larger blood supply to absorb
the toxins so that healing may occur.
It is particularly important that
during the cure Of this disease the
bowels be kept from producing more
toxins, and l usually advise an enc
ma morning and evening. One
should avoid walking on the affected
limb until the soreness has subsidized.
but exercises of the other Joints
should be substituted. Even after
cure has been effected, It will
probably be necessary for the patient
to watch his food carefully for a
long time, especially with regard to
food combinations, and to avoid the
use of foods that might cause ex-
cesslve intestinal fermentation.

Meanwhile, over the spires of the

Don Dickerman is an outstanding
example of the human paradoxes
produced by Manhattan. A scien-
fist, explorer, artist by instinct and
nature, he makes fortunes annually
in night resorts that cater chiefly
to visitors, tourist bus trade, collie
gians and such.
For years his cafe pirates have
decorated the front of the Pirates
Den, a place visited by most of the
sightseeing busses. His Heigh-Ho

County Fair is cafe in hick cloth

Yet Dickerman has sailed on most
OF the exploration trips Of William

The larger cities are wet. In

Smith is more likely to be offset by
large Catholic populations.
Rural sections, on the other hand,

In certain rural sections, Of course,

It is obviously necessary to quail
ify this picture Of the urban VS..
rural set-up by admitting important
sectional distinctions, especially as
regards the more sparsely populated
districts. Politically speaking, there
are three separate situations in the
rural east, the rural south and the
rural west.
The rural east is normally Repub-
lican. The cleavage between city
and country is nowhere more definite
in the 1928 campaign than in the
east. The state election result in
Maine was a convincing demonstra-
ton. Maine and Vermont have
larger proportional rural votes than
any other eastern states and they
are the two eastern states which are
sure bets for Hoover.
The agricultural west also may
be called normally Republican de-
spite it's ticket-splitting tendencies
and the fact that some of its states
are always willing to elect a progress
sive Democrat for governor or SEN
ator in preference to q conservative
Republican. This year the attitude
Of farmers in the middle west and

the Republicans and source of hope
to the Democrats.
The possibility that some Of the

5000 DOOMED TO DIE

A bulletin from the National Safety Council calmly

INFLAMMATION OF THE EYE

INFLAMMATION OF The FL ~
inflammation of the eyeball'
termed conjunctivitis, is indicated by
a reddish bloodshot appearance, US
ually accompanied by a discharge
from the mucous membranes OF the
eve and may be caused by several
distinct diseases. !,
The most frequent disease that
attacks the eye is acute catarrhal
inflammation which causes bright
redness on the surface Of the eye
ball, with feeling Of pain and dry.
ness. extreme sensitiveness to light
and a copious mucus secretion, at
first having the consistency Of tears
This turns into glue-like pus as
the disease progresses and may
even fasten the eyelids together dur
ing the night.
This disease frequently follows
measles, smallpox, influenza, colds
and scarlet fever. Sometimes the
disease, instead of being acute, is
chronic in nature and lasts for a
longer time, but usually without as
violent symptoms.
A chronic catarrh of the eye may
be caused by eye strain, irritation
from foreign particles, smoke or
other causes. The eye is redeemed,
but there is not as large supply
Of mucus present.
Another type Of inflammation of
the eye, or conjunctivitis is known
as trachoma, and is often called
granulated eyelids. In this disease,
small pus Jumps appear on the under
surface of the eyelids. This disease
is quite contagious and is usually
carried from one person to another
by towels or by the hands.
There is another very dangerous
type of conjunctivitis that often re-
suits in blindness resulting from a
gonorrheal infection that may be
carried either on towels or the
hands. This disease begins very
much like the acute conjunctivitis
but also causes pronounced swell
ing of the front Of the eyeball, &C.
companied by thick pus discharge
The eyelids are sometimes so greatly
enlarged as to be pushed forward
entirely concealing the eyeball
There is a severe pain and tender
ness accompanied by some fever.
This disease frequently results ir
blindness, as it may produce 8
sloughing off of the cornea or front
of the eye, and permit the escape Of
the gelatinous interior of the eye
ball. Even if this does not occur
the cornea usually becomes more OF
less opaque. The disease is very
contagious. A sad part is that this
disease often occurs in babies about
the third day after birth from in.
lection during birth. Practically
every nation now requires that the
doctor place some weak antiseptis
in the baby's eyes as a protection
against this occurring.
The simpler types of conjunctivitis
can be handled with an acid fruit
fast, and the renewed application
of cold wet cloths to the eyes.
A person with conjunctivitis
should of course be kept away from
the possibility of injecting others
and his eyes should be guarded
against light until the inflammation
has subsidized. The gonorrheal type
of conjunctivitis is very dangerous
and while fasting regime accom-
panied by wet congresses is help
full, it is also necessary that your
doctor employ antiseptic measures
to overcome this trouble in it's early
stages before it has an opportunity
to destroy the precious eyesight.

Washington, Oct. 13.-Probably M
other campaign has ever seen such
a clearly defined contest between the
rural vote and the city vote as in
1928.
Across the country, again and
again, the question of greatest i'm.
portance is found to be whether
Smiths heavy urban vote will be
offset by the heavy Hoover vote out
in the state.
This is a question of enormous
Importance because it figures es.
pecially in the largest states; that
is, those with the biggest electoral
votes.
In New York, it's question
whether the large majority of which
Smith is certain in New York City
will be beaten down by the probable
large majority which Hoover will
have in the rest of the governors
own state. Smith cannot win, it is
generally agreed, without New
York's 45 electoral votes.
In New Jersey again, Smith is ex-
pected to have a large city majority,
but the Republicans are confident
that the rest Of New Jersey will
turn him down.
Smith is again likely to carry
Boston and most of the manufacture
ing cities of Massachusetts, but
again Massachusetts, is very doubt
full state because of the outside vote.
Cleveland and Chicago are likely
to 60 for Smith, but it may be a
different story as regards Ohio and
Illinois.
This same parallel can. be fol-
lowed out as far as San Francisco,
which may 60 for Smith in the face
of an enormous Hoover majority in
California. It applies to Milwaukee
in Wisconsin, St. Louis in Missouri,
Baltimore in Maryland, Wilmington
in Delaware and so on.
1t is quite conceivable that Smith
may carry six of the largest cities
in the country. His chances are at
least fair in New York, Chicago.
Cleveland, St. Louis, Baltimore and
Boston. Among the next ten cities
he is likely to capture Buffalo, San
Francisco, Newark, Milwaukee, New
Orleans and Minneapolis. But not
SO likely, according to such informa-
