MAYBE MY IRON IS RUNNING
 LOW


 Formerly I harped a good deal on the idea that anemia Is rarely if ever due to 8 lack of iron, and that 1t is difficult to select a diet which does not provide ali the iron the body requires. Infants or in- valids restricted to exclusive milk diet do not get enough iron, be- cause milk is poor in iron, but the addition of spoonful or two of powdered spinach to a bottle or glass of milk will correct the de- ficiency, besides furnishing desjr- able vitamins. When there is no need to restrict the diet, these items are rich in iron: Beans, peas. egg yoik, 1noiasses. oysters, pea nuts, dried prunes, wheat bran, en. tire (unmiiled) wheat, lean beef, oatmeal, spinach green or dried. maple syrup, cocoa, entrants, dates, raisins, brown bread, graham bread, dried apples, dried apricots, walnuts, oceans, dandelion greens. milkednoyster -?.?-.-
 So far, fine. But recently, the knowing ones observe, I seem to have decided that one can't get enough iron, for I advise what the old timers consider enormous doses of iron for simple anemia. How come I have changed my mind about this? And how can con- tradict myself 50 hagrantly and get away with 1t?
 Here's another thing not many have yet noticed. I'm laying off chiropractors lately. may as well confess. One of 'em wrote me a cordial letter and under separate cover sent me a swell pipe and a canister of the choicest 'baccy and before realized 1t I found myself taking a quizzical, tolarent atti- tude, where always before I had been poisonous.
 But haven't been subsidized by the medical interests. My teaching about iron and anemia hasn't changed at all. In order to relieve the anxiety of those who are upset about this, I offer the following ex. planation in the booklet "Blood and Health"-copy of which you may have if you send ten cents in coin and a stamped envelope bear ing your address:
 "The greater part or pos-
 sibly alL of the iron given as
 medicine serves to take up and
 combine with the hydrogen
 sulphide in the intestine. This
 hydrogen sulphide interferes
The Waterbury Democrat., 1935-04-06

with the assimilation of iron in
 food or medicine. Thus the
 biackening of the dejecta by
 iron taken as medicine may be
 regarded as an indication that
 the medicine Is doing good
 1t Is removing something
 which prevents the utilization
 of iron by the body"
 There. now, If that isn't a per- fectly satisfactory alibi and withal . scientifically sound one. I'm aa quack. Mind, 1t is not just my no- ton, but the accepted view of many good physicians. Of course, ali I know Is what I read in the medical journals and what I pick up listening in when good doctors get together. Although I go bla- bia here urimercifully, I'm aphasio when real doctors are holding g symposium. In that way I find there are lots of things I don't know. and. now and then thing the other doctors don't know.
 In q healthy body there is 8 scant teaspoonful of iron. The body requires perhaps one-fourth grain of iron daily. But the suc- cessful treatment of anemia calls for about a teaspoonful of iron daiiy-to restore the ability of the intestine to assimiiate the normal daily ration of iron.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
 EyeStrain

Should a person suffering from headache after reading, studying or sewing 30 to have her eyes ex- amined? (W. R.)
 Answer-First, think, she should consult a regular physician, and if the headache is not due to an ordinary cause he will advise about the oculist. Headache due to eyestrain is by no means 90 com mon as some merchants would have you think.
 Difficult Duty
 Please advise me how am to approach my son aged IS who has fallen into the habit %. q. F. T.)
 Answer-I don't know. The ideal way, if possible. is for dad to try to keep the boys confidence and help him to break the habit, but never make too much fuss about 1t. I'll be glad to send you, or the boy himself if he cares to confido in me, a letter of advice. Be sure to inclose stamped envelope bear ing your address when you desire a reply by mail.
 COpperas
 Please tell me about copperas for darkening gray hair. {M. R.)
 Answer-A lump of copperas (iron sulphate) the size of a chest- nut dissolved in a pint of tea. This has been used with satisfaction az a rinse for the hair by many whose hair is turning gray. Of course it doesn't restore color. It simply darkens the conspicuous gray for the time being. and must be ap- piled daily or frequently.
