An INrLAMED M

When your doctor tells you that
o have gastritis, he does not mean
that YOU have gas. but he means that
YOU have an inflammation Of your
stomach. AS acute attack OF gastritis
may be very disturbing. often being
accompanied by vomiting and .
knowledge that the food is remaining
in the stomach for a much longer
time than it should. There may also
be a severe headache, usually In the
front of the head. or the whole back
and base of the skull may feel ready
to burst. This is accompanied by q
feverish feeling and very unpleasant
breath with profound muscular IA
tigue, with a repugnance toward any
food whatever. Following the severe
pains of the stomach there may be
something like an attack of collie FOL-
lowed by diarrhea which may remain
for a few hours or a few days and
upon pressing the stomach it will be
found tender and sensitive and the
muscles often as hard as q wash
board.
An attack of this nature frequently
follows the eating Of foods which the
patient knows he is intolerant to,
such as pickles. beans or Strawberries;
or 1t may come on after eating an
unusual dish or foreign mixture, such
as rich Oriental, Chinese or Spanish
dishes. Those with delicate stom-
achs are especially predisposed to-
ward attacks of acute gastritis.
Because of the inflammation Of the
stomach. 1t is advisable to fast for a
few days, using no solid food what
ever. but drinking large quantities OF
water and using an enema until the
poisonous substances have been en-
tirely eliminated.
Chronic gastritis Is usually the re-
suit of many years of dietetic indis-
cretions. and is much harder to cure
than acute gastritis. Continually
overeating or swallowing food hastily
and in large chunks. or the continual
use of strong condiments, or using
foods containing large amounts of
grease, or drinking gulpS Of cold
water, or eating irregularly and in
between meals will all tend to be fac
tors In producing chronic gastritis.
Sometimes large quantities Of mu-
Gus may be present in the stomach,
although this Is not always the case.
The consumption Of strong alcoholic
beverages upon an empty stomach
may often result In chronic gastritis.
One affected with this disease will
seem to have . heavy lump in the
stomach after eating any food, and
these patients usually believe that

Question: Mrs. n. b. writes: MY
husband has atrophy Of the optic
nerve. His left eye Is useless and the
right eye has been rapidly losing
ground. The doctors say that there
is no hope. and that blindness Is in
evitable. It IS proven that the nerve
has been poisoned by wood alcohol
which IS contained in . glue he l1ses
in his work. Now. II this Is . nerve
condition, Is there any diet that would
build up o nouriSh the injured
nervc?"
Answer: Correct fasting and diet
ing seem to be about the best treat
ment to eradicate the poisonous ef-
fectS Of wood alcohol from the system
and ! would suggest that your hus-
band employ this regimen. After the
fasting period, when he has begun TO
use the diet. ! would suggest he use
the exercises outlined in an article

nounced pain in the stomach. the
patient may find that the pain is
relieved after eating. and he is con-
stantly tempted to take in more food,
which actually prevents recovery.
In many cases. patients suffering
from chronic gastritis will be under
the impression they are continually
hungry. This Is because the pain
from the inflamed lining of the stom-
ach is registered in the same portion
of the brain as hunger. and the two
sensations are confused.
Chronic gastritis should be cleared
up as soon as possible. because If 1t
is allowed to continue 1t frequently
results in ulcers or a destruction OF
the glands producing the stomach
digestive juices. Cancer may even
result when this condition continues
for a long period Of time.

Goods Cannot Smoke
VALLEY CITY rmes.Recordl

valley City TtmeS.Record)
President g. E. Allen. Of our State Teachers college,
recently told the girl students 1t the college that he
would not stand for their smoking while attending the
college. and that II he found any Of them smoking that
person would be asked to leave the college. Furthermore
President Allen said that he would not recommend any
girl who smoked and that she was simply wasting her
time attending the college.
We agree absolutely with the president in this mat
ter. We feel, as he does. that any young woman going
out to teach children. are not setting up . standard Of
very high ideals when they smoke and set such an
example before those whom they are teaching.
Furthermore the writer has always had . higher ideal
for women than to see them going about smoking
cigarettes. Men are made Of rougher material. we guess.
and 1t seems to be natural for them to smoke, and .
great many to drink. but when 1t comes down to women
We have q different viewpoint. We want to think Of
our mother. our sisters and our daughters. II you please.

One great trouble with the movies Of today Is that
they are setting . mighty poor example to the young
people Of today. A good film u spoiled to Us. anyway.
BY the showing Of women smoking and drinking. Il
takes away the pleasure In . perfectly good picture. and
there Is absolutely no need Of It. Clean, wholesome pic.
lures are being made every day and these loud. lewd

screen. Picture promoters can Just as we'll sponsor pic
lures that have these disgusting elements cut out OF

President Aliens stand In this smoking matter will
have the endorsement Of all right thinking people.

Editorial Comment
The Unknown Farmer
Toronto Glohcl

Approximately 100000 farmers make their individual
contributions to Canada's wheat crop. The great mass
OF these men. BY the very nature OF their activities, arc
individualists. They furnish no counterpart to the de-
%vclopnent Of the herd spirit In urban life. A few are
famous. some have province wide repute-but the vast
majority are unknown beyond the districts in which
they operate their farms.
The fact that the Canadian wheat pool, having about
$4,000 Of these men Within its cooperative ranks, is today
OH the tongues Of millions who have seldom seen q farm
IS q world model Of the intrinsic power behind rural
unity. It IS almost . startling reminder that the right
to organize Is not peculiar to urban workers. The trad.
union idea has gone out into the country.
The drying up OF the customary wheat stream to the
scaboard. and the widespread anxiety concerning the
rcpercussions from that droutll. once more drive home
the lesson concerning the position held b. wheat in the
business structure Of the Dominion. It Is 50 rich. SO
abundant. and SO permanent-it appears that city folk
require to be reminded from time to time that the
farm is 1t the source OF the nations health and wealth.
It seems timely. therefore. to give the pools aim. as
culled from the charter behind Its central selling agency
at Winnipeg:
TO be an agricultural organization for the
purpose OF mutual help. xxx To reduce
speculation. manipulation and waste. and all un-
necessary transactions In such marketing: to In
crease consumption. build up new markets. and
develop new uses for grain: marketing same d.
rectly and with regularity, 50 as to furnish it
economically to the users thereof, and to preserve
for the growers and the public their proper
profits and economies"
The fact that the current crop is not being marketed
with regularity Is either q deviation from customary
pool policy. or It Is merely evidence that 1t takes two
sides to make q sale. either ct 4 country fair or when
dealing with half the wheat Of Canada.

from business jeaIouses. A move has developed in the
conference to restrict the banks powers to such All
extern. that It would not be able to extend Its activities
much beyond handling separations and acting as a sort

the opinion of some delegates. however. such restrictions
would so limit the banks usefulness as to make the
Young plan ineffective and certainly as to render 1t but

There is another hazy peril In tho background of the
tanning Of the bank. and that is the proposal for its
use as an instrument Of pressure upon parties to
European controversies and conflict. Ultimately this
would sacrifice the essential neutrality of the institu-

The Red Man Gets Wise

The noble rcd man. who once sold Manhattan island
for s2i worth OF glass beads, seems to be getting wise TO
himself OF, perhaps. wise to his white brother.
A western museum curator recently toured the South
west to collect Indian pottery for hts museum. He found.
he says. that the Indian nowadays Is cooking his meals
in nice steel and aluminium pots and pans made BY
MODERN mills. He uses them because they arc more
scryiccablc and convenient than his own pots.
But he still makes pots, Just the same. And why? To
sell TO the white tourist, who buys them without the
slightest hesitation. With the money thus obtained the
Indian outfits his own kitchen, and has enough change
left to buy food and clothing as we'll.
The red man. it seems, Is making up for that episode
OF the glass beads.
