FOOLISH FEAR OF EXAMINATION

Young woman describes a marked irregularity of her teeth, which nat urally makes her unduly sensitive about her appearance. She evades social contact with her friends. She says she has been on the point of consulting her dentist time and again, but always hesitates she fears the dentist will only laugh at
 This girls attitude is no more senseless and absurd than the atti- tude of thousands of individuals who drift along for months and years, suffering from minor troubles which might be readily corrected if the poor galoots would only consult physician and receive proper treatment.
 Knowing doctors, medicine and surgery as do, suppose 1t is dif- ficult for me to view this matter through the eyes of the layman. It is rather the thing we don't know or understand very well that we fear.
 Once the big noise of a metropoli- tan newspaper to which I was a contributor, who happened to be suffering with some chronic trou- ble, noticed in my column a remark which sent him straight off to a physician for examination. After the examination the physician assured the blighter that 1t was minor condition. not malignant. For the scare had given him, got the air. I wonder how the man would have felt had the examination disclosed malignancy and timely treatment saved his life?
 There are thousands of women of middle age who are conscious of slight disturbances, particularly wo- men who have borne several chil- dren, yet they hesitate to consult their physicians and too often drift along on the assurance of other wo- men that such troubles are part of the change of life". Tn most inc stances this foolish notion is respon- sible for discomfort which simple diagnosis and treatment would pre- vent. Tn some instances 1t costs the victims life, for when at last she makes up her mind to 30 to the doctor and be properly examined it is too late. am not going to men, ton the reason why 1t is too late. Every woman. especially if she is mother. is under obligation to pre- serve her health and life and she cannot permit trivial or prudish condition to deter her from having proper advice or care for any disturbance of health.
 While we are on this subject, it must be confessed that physicians themselves are still given to indul- gence in sheer guessWOrk in too many instances when patients com plain of rectal trouble. No matter how competent and skilled the doc- tor. he can't tell any better than you can whether your trouble is piles, for instance. without an examina- ton. Tn some cases visual examina- ton may be sufficient. but if there is any trouble within the anal canal, a diagnosis can be made only with the gid of a speculum. The sense of touch alone is not enough.
 Altogether the Society of Drift CTS Is a large one. For Healtifg sake keep out oc it.

 Q. - What is cardiac neu- r0 Sico

Il
 A.-Cardiac neurosis is a condition in which a person
 has developed an anxious state of mind over the belief that he
 is suffering from heart disease
 when none exists. The anxiety
 is usually created by attacks of palpitation or skipped beats.
 which may be due to gaseous
 distention of the stomach, to
 overindulgence in tobacco. tea,
 or coffee, or to excesses of va rious kinds.
 When the palpitation or ir- regularity is due to organic dis
 ease of the heart or to certain poisons from within the body.
 such as that of toxic goiter, the term cardiac neurosis does not apply.

A high oughage diet is prac- tically never recommended by doc tors in diseases of the stomach. The chief value of roughage lies in the control of that type of constipation or lazy bowel action due to insuffi- cient bulk in waste matter passing from the body.
 You can get all the roughage you need by adding extra green veget- ables and fruits to your diet. If you need still more roughage. va rious bran products are sometimes recommended.
 In correction of the type of lazy bowel action described above, be cer- tain that regular time is estab- iished for action of the bowels. You must also take plenty of water-at least eight glasses day.
 It is not wise to form the habit Of stimulating the bowel action by taking cathartics or enemas daily. These should not be taken except on advice of a doctor.
 The usual roughage diet is one containing plenty of fruits and veg etables-in other words. at least 800 grams day. Fruits or fruit juices may be taken before meals or be- fore going to bed.
 Here is sample menu for the day which may be recommended for peo- pie who wish 6 diet with extra youghage:
 Breakfast
 Fruit, 2 large servings; whole grain cereal df cereal is used); egg, bacon, ham or similar food: whole grain bread, butter; and hot bev- eEages.
 Luncheon
