TONSILLECTOMY BY DIATHERMY OVER THERE

Last April an Englisht doctor Walter Collins
 reported in the London Lancet his experience In the removal of tonss by diathermy. He had employed this method in 15O cases, adults man-
 ", and he believes the method has every ad- vantage of ordinary surgical tonsllectomy and none Of it's disadvantages. Dr Collins believes diathermy is not suitable for children under IA years of age. since to them a general anesthetic is not so alarming the appearance of the dlathermy apparatus
 In this country some of the more skilled spe- cialsts doctors who know thet art of manag- cooperation have found diathermy quite sat- isfactory for the extirpation of the tonsils in
 children as young as five or six years: Of course only the exceptionally ell b red child can have dathermy treatment.
 For adults Dr Collins says general anes- thetic is required. It is sufficient to spray the | throat with local anesthetic.
 The whole treatment lasts only few seconds The British surgeon says it is advisable to com l plete the tonsillectomy in two, three or four stages treatments at intervals of a week or more. The patient should be examined at the end of month, and again after the lapse of 1 three months should any fragment of lymphoid (onsi) tissue have escaped destruction, it is easily disposed of at this time with touch of dathermy.
 Collins has his patients simple antsep- tic mouth wash after meals, but absolutely for bids gargng.
 Following each such treatment the portion of tOnsil that has been coagulated desiccated shrivels and gradually sloughs away No secondary bleeding occurred in the 150 patient.
 In England perhaps they have been quite so radical. not to say rabid, about the | moval of tonsils have been in this coun- | try. From the growing and snarling and grit | ting of teeth fancy my plain and unchallenged assertions about the tonsillectomy scandal in 1 this country have not been quite in vain, yet | there is still room for a lot of improvement in the accepted" way of dealing with bad tonsils | in America Especially does the rank and file l of the medical profession here need to stir out | of it's dumb apathy in respect to this modern | method. and at least acknowledge that 1t is a | good alternative for patients who for one req 1 son or another, cannot undergo a general anes- | thetic or risk the shock of surgical tonsil- l lectomy even under local anesthesia. The fact | that some of the woud-be leaders have con- 1 ducted vain campaign to discourage diathermy | in throat surgery, despite it's adoption in brain
 I surgery, goiter surgery and uroogy, is poor | consolation for the inept nose and throat men
 who have failed to equip themselves to provide
 l this boon for handicapped patients.
 Here is an opportunity for many good doc
 | tor--there are still cities without throat spe-
 cialist who is able to extirpate tonsis with dia | thermy. And the intelligent public is more and
 l more demanding this modern treatment.

Good evening.
 o-O-o ; FEBRUARY SHOWS
"A SMILES THD THING"

A short month. but tough one;
 Snow fell again today.
 Sloppy. slushy sidewalks
 To mark our weary way: Howling from the northland Came King Winter grim: Gaze upon his handiwork-
 What do you think of him! Driving more than hazardous. Walking much the same. Wonder what's behind it all. Whats his little game. Stopping through the crosswalks.
 Stopping. feeling grim, A gift from old King Winter
 What do you htink of him? Groundhog saw his shadow! Didn't. SO some say. We'll, what does it matter
 Answer that today.
 Just another snow fall. Just more slush to wade. And of such conditions Is King Winter made. o-O-o I think it was the cobbler who said he was the SOLE owner of his shop. o-O-o Just remember this. there's no dough in the bread line. l o-O-o | Leave foot prints on the sands of time and poets will eulogize them. Leave finger prints and the authori- ties will photograph them. l O-O-O
 Some people want to get the most out of life by putting the | least into it. | Funny isn't it. When a teacher marries she is not allowed to con- tinue teaching. But if she wants to work as charwoman cleaning the school. 1t will be all right. Funny way they have of reasoning things out. | tYr IHe nOuSeWlIe WnO can make | both ends meet to-day is a ma l gician. l o-O-o l The difference between bill board and board bill is more publi- city for the bill board. l o-O-o l Petting parties now are
 blamed for forest fires in Con- | necticut. Real proof of Ham l ing" youth, so to speak. | o-O-O Many a married man leads a dog's g life when he really has no license to do so. l o-O-o Then there was the lighting l company who thought the gas 1 on his stomach should also have l a fixed charge. | o-O-o l The man with plenty of push generally votes for the politicians with plenty of pull.
 McCoy's the fast way to

 a general slow down. o-O-o Dotty Dix says a man is most att tractive at forty. She must have attended a meeting of the Rotary club.

ers benefited by irrigation from the
city plant He has been gathering data
to promote and finance a new water
system for Kalispell, expecting to util-
ize Tally lake for an increased sup
ply. The distribution of water from the
canal to the acreage northwest OF Kal-
ispell might reclaim thousands Of acres
which are now unproductive on ac-
count of the recurrence of dry years.
Mr.. Jaqueth has been informed that
a section contiguous to Pomona has
been reclaimed through the usage OF
city water supply and the revenue
has been a practical tax reducer as
we'll as a profitable plan for the small
fruit growers, who are supplied with
water from the municipal plant.
