RICH on pOO3 MANS 0OUI
While many people consider thai
govt Is only . rich mans disease. u
really isn't Is important how much
money one has In the bank g how
much poisou he has In his body. 0out
Is usually preceded BY many years Of
disorders Of the digestive. urinary Of
nervous systems. A severe attack Of
gout may appear without any pre-
vious local symptoms. lte patient
may retire feeling quite we'll. but be
sdakened II the early morning ~ IN
excrlciating pain In some Of the
small joints Of the body. usually In
the ball Of the great toe. This In
tense pain b accompanied by shiv-
ering and followed BY fever which
may rise to l03 degrees OF l03 de-
erees Fahrenheit.
The pain Of Z equity attack Is In
tensely aeoni1ing. and feels - though
the Joints were being screwed In .
vice. The affected Joint swells rapid
~ and assumes Z reddish hue. The
skin Is hot, teY1se, and has Z shiny
surfaces. After q few hours the pain
lessons, the patient perspires gently
and falls into Z refreshing sleep. The
pain returns in Ill It's severity every
night during the continuance Of the
attack which may last for nine or ten
days. Then the symptoms Of tender
neas in the joint disappear. The skin
will pit upon being pressed. and some
times scales.
After the attack is over, the patient
may feel unusually well but there Is .
saying that once equity, always equity.
This Is true unless the proper dietetic
measures are used to clear the sys-
tenn Of the uric acid poisons. When
the disease Is not cured by dietetic
measures 1t becomes chronic, and the
first attack Is always followed by re-
current attacks, each more severe
than the previous.
A deposit Of chalk stones or "tophi"
forms around the affected joints, and
may even be liberated out through
the skin. These tophi consist prin-
cipally Of bi-uratc ct soda. At first
soft. they become more dense and
cause . stiffening and knotting o.
joints. The hands and feet are most
commonly affected. Usually these
tophi can be felt on the ears, and are
one Of the diagnostis indications Of
govt.
Since this disease seems to be
especially caused by the retention Of
uric acid and other purin bodies,
which IRE combined with sodium and
deposited in the tissues in order to
free the blood %. much Is possible Of
the excess Of purins, the proper treat
ment is to eliminate all food for .
time except large quantities Of dis
titled water to which some Of the
acid fruit juices has been added. In
tits way, no additional uric acid will
be taken into the system, and the
body will be able to dissolve that
which has been deposited In the It's.
sues and excreted through the kid.
lleys and pores Of the skin.
Sometimes the equity area becomes
more sentative during the first few
days OF the fast while the toxins are
being dissolved. but this disappears

YOUR

Occasionally parents get excited
over an epidemic and resort to all
sorts Of unusual things to keep chill
dren well.
Their zest, however, often misses
the mark and defeats its own ends.
The best thing to use in any cir
cumstance Is common sense; the best
thing, doubly, In an epidemic is COM
mon sense. Nothing has ever been
tried that could beat 1t.
One poor mother got it into her
head that more fresh air was the
thing to make her two little boys i'm
mune to sickness. They had been &C
customed to an hour outdoors morn
ings ana afternoons. but now she
doubled the dose.
As It happened the weather got
bitter cold just then, but fresh air
was fresh air and out they went
and stayed-for about four hours the
first day.
One Of the little boys sat down on
q neighbor's back steps and she asked
him In. It was from her got the
story. Ills lips were blue. He had
OF, high wooden socks but his legs
above his knees were like ice.
Il took him home them" she re-
lated, and I said to his mother, Bus
ter seems cold. I didn't think you'd
want him out any longer
Hes al right she answered.
Children can stand q lot. Just see
here

"And she brought out q magazine
picture Of some children almost naked
playing in the snow in q mountain
resort OF Europe. I don't know about
that said to her. All I know is
that I think It's pretty cold for this
little tyke to b outside any longer j"
I wonder how many mothers are
being misled thus.
To begin with, the climate Of the
place shown in the picture is high
and dry, and even with deep snow
on the ground, neither bitterly cold
nor changeable. Besides, those Euro
pean health camps are conducted by
specialists who know what they are
doing. Such heroic treatment needs
intelligent supervision.
Here, with our changeable weather,
the ordinary lay person would best

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
SWEATING Feet

Question: G. w. asks: Does ex-
cessive perspiration Of the feet neces-
sarily indicate III health7 Am . To-
yeAr-old boy. And what else would
cause . pimply face besides wrong
eating?"
Answer: II you will take at least
one sponge or shower, bath daily. you
will find that 1t will cut down excess
sive sweating Of your feet. as all of
the other pores Of the body will be
stimulated to do their proper work. A
pimply face Is caused both from
wrong eating and through intestinal
poisoning which comes from consti-
patton or from kinks in the colon
which encourage the retention Of
poisonous fecal matter.
Bananas
Question: e. ]. ]. asks: "Will you
give the right way of combining
bananas with other foods?"
Answer: Bananas should be used as
Z starchy food and 50 combine well
with the non -starchy vegetables. The
best way to use bananas is baked.
Then use two or three as the principal
part Of a meal adding any OF the
cooked and raw green's.
Diphtheria
Question: D. M. writes: II
would like to have Your opinion on
treatment they are giving for diph-
theria."
Answer: There are many treat
ments for diphtheria, some based up
on the theory that the disease can be
prevented or arrested through the
use Of anti-toxin. The method adj
vocate is for the patient to stop eat
ing at once ct the first symptoms Of q
sore throat, 60 to bed and induce q
copious sweat, using frequent sponge
baths and no gargles. This grand
mother" method has been highly sue
cessful, and seems to be the only
treatment necessary in the majority
of cases.
