He was putting his best foot

"Oh, you needn't pretend you

she said, smiling. you're the
first one I talked her over with,
and there needn't be any pre-

But Jim Tracy was not at all

The diagnosis Of tuberculosis
depends upon . number Of
technical procedures and must
be carried out by your physi-
clan.
What are those procedures1
How does your doctor go about

There are various kinds W

tuberculosis Of the lungs.
The one final and decisive
sign Of tuberculosis Is the find.
ing Of the germ In the sputum.
It would be desirable to make
the diagnosis before this stage.
But I believe that Of late, with
the many effective surgical
methods Of treating tubercu-
loSiS, the finding of tubercle
bacilli in the sputum is not
considered as serious aS it was
Is years ago.
The history of the case is Of
great Importance. There should
be definite and indubitable
set Of symptoms before the
diagnosis is made positive.
Many people have old healed
spots Of tuberculosis which
show as shadows on the X.ray
plate, but do not mean active
tuberculosis.
The best sign Of activity is
fever. This is present usually

called physical signs. They are
still important, and every
patient should be so examined.
The examination must be done
over the bare chest, the patient

that the X-ray Is nowadays a

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
I would like to ask you to

and went out with him q few
times. Then we quarrelled and
I went out with other boys and
he went out with another girl.
He claims he loves me but,
some way or other, I seem able
to read his mind and am sure
he likes this other girl as well.
We made UP and have been 60
ing together again. He gave me
a compact for my birthday.
Now that we have had an
other quarrel, just because he
lied to me, and I don't care to
60 with any man who lies,
am wondering If it would be
right to send him back his COM
pact as have not used 1t yet?
Z. 8.
No, I believe I wouldn't re-
turn the compact. No use max
ing q mountain over such q lit
tie mole hill as that. You're not
engaged to this young man, so
why take things so seriously2
Almost all young men tell
young girls that they love them.
It often means nothing more
than q pleasant compliment
and given the right time, place,
and . girl not hard to look at,
they really do love them-3or
the time being. Also, melan-
choly as it Is to relate, almost
all young men tell "hes" TO
girls; they're what the new
school of psychology calls pro
tective coloring." When the
truth is embarrassing, men
wiggle out of situations by
trimming q little-and, if you
get angry with them for that.

Ferguson and His Court Appeal

1t Is said there is a chance mat the supreme court
proper will decide the mandamus case Of Thomas Z.
Love on May 7. regular court day, as the tribunal
passed up its regular session day for the closing week
Of April. AS for Jas. Z. Ferguson his case has been
set for May 8. and a special supreme court will de-
eide his case.
1t is announced that the special court will not be
concerned with the political tests in the Ferguson
case, as the former governor has met those, but will
decide whether the amnesty act was constitutional
and. II 1t is valid, whether its repeal deprived Fer
guson of political rights restored while the law was
in effect.
AS for Love, he demands his name shall 60 on the
ballot for governor. although he is unable to qualify
under the state committee qualification test. He
bolted In 1926. He bolted in 1928. and he promises
TO bolt again in 1880 and again in 1882 unless the
democratic nominees for governor and president are
given a sweeping endorsement by his conscience.
There is no pep in the campaign at the present
time. All the candidates. al the practical politicians.
snd a vast majority Of the qualified voters arc await
ing the action Of the supreme court in the Ferguson
and the Love cases.
