By DR.. Frank Mccoy

THERE is an old Anglo-Saxon
word, blaeddre, which had
two meanings blister and blad-
der This word referred to a sac
acting as a container for fluid,
and is said to have been used to
describe either blister filled
with fluid, or the bladder which
fills with fluid from the kidneys.
Our word bladder is directly de-
rived from it.
We have dropped the blister
idea, and when we say we have
bladder trouble, we do not mean
we are having trouble with blis-
ters, but rather, trouble with the
bladder which acts as a storage
organ for the fluid elimination of
the kidneys.
Most of the people who believe
they have weak kidneys" or
kidney trouble, really have an ir-
ritation of the bladder. The truly
surprising thing is that often the
pain will not appear in the blad-
der at all, but will be reflexed,
appearing as backache or neuri-
tis, and the patient will pot have
the slightest reason to suspect
that the bladder is the cause of
his distress. Every patient believ-
Imperial Valley press., 1936-11-01

ing he has kidney trouble should
have a laboratory test of the kid
ney elimination, to determine
whether the cause lies in the kid
neys, bladder or elsewhere.
For example, Inflammation of
the bladder when chronic, is a
constant source of distress in the
lower back and such irritation of
the bladder may cause more pain
than through the bladder itself.
Very often, the most obstinate
cases of so-called backache yield
in a surprising manner when
bladder treatment is begun.
I DO not advise that the patient
try to diagnose his own dis
order for himself, and I strongly
urge that those suspecting kidney
trouble, bladder irritability, and
also those experiencing backache,
have an examination made which
will disclose the real cause of the
discomfort.
Some of the symptoms of blad-
der irritation are: a desire to
empty the organ frequently, espe-
cially at night, which disturbs the
rest; painful straining or burn
ing sensation; or a lack of feel
ing of relief after attempting to
empty the bladder, due to the

and more abundant materials,
gave lessons in home building for
women. A framework of branches
in a double row is filled in with
earth or wattled canework is
plastered with clay. There are
no windows and the roofs are
thatched with palmetto.
THE dwellings of the central
Mexican varies with the eli
mate and locality. In the lowlands
they are sheds consisting of poles
stuck in the ground, the spaces
between woven with rushes and
the roof thatched with palm
leaves. In the highlands women
have more substantial homes.
Sun-dried bricks or stones
(adobe) with the roof made from
split slabs held in place by rocks.
The interior walls of an adobe
house are usually hung with
hand-Woven mats used as a pro-
lection against the heat. The ma
iority of the houses consist of
only one room and in some cases
the kitchen is in a separate shed
or lean-to some distance away

from the hut. In the one-room
house the occupants are born, sit,
sleep and die on the bare earthen
floor.
From the varied environment
dress varies greatly. Women have
modified their clothing much
under Spanish influence. Children
in Tehuantepec and vicinity wear
no clothing. In Tehuantepec the
women wear skirt of cotton or
wool reaching to the ankles, often
elaborately embroidered in var
rious designs and colors; the
huipil, a smock- k-chemisette, with
short sleeves, often adorned with
lace and threads of gold and sill
yer; and a white~cotton head COW
ering drawn on like a sack and
hanging down the back. The flow
cred skirt of the women of
Tehuantepec has a stiff ruffied
hem about 16 inches wide. They
also wear a headdress of stiff1y
starched pleats which is called a
"huipil grdnde."
The women of the state of Vera
Cruz wear a white cotton skirt.

Bad Manners In Theater
Detract From Enjoyment

admission and were sure. that
they were enjoying the after
noon. If they had seen, on the
stage or screen, their own be-
havior, they would have been
amused, and rather Mortified.
IN THE theater, lecture hall or
| church, one should be as quiet
and unobtrusive as possible. Peo-
pie have gathered there to listen
to the music, hear sermon or
watch the stage-not to gossip
with their neighbors, rattle pro-
grams, eat candy or to go sleep.
Between the acts, or after the
performance, it is perfectly cor
rect to meet ones friends for a
bit of pleasant conversation. Be
sure, however, that you are not
blocking the aisle or the foyer
when you stop to talk.
Any article of clothing that
will obstruct the view, such as a
large hat or high fur collar,
should, of course, be removed. If
one has a box, the women of the
party naturally have the best
seats, with the hostess taking the
least comfortable.
IF THERE is to be a supper
party after the theater, it is
wisest to have the arrangement
of the cars planned before leav-
ing the theater. 1t will save con-
fusion at the door if you will
quietly say, "Mr. Williams, will
you and Mr.. Joyce go with Mrs
Sutter and Miss Powers in the
first car, please" and thus have
all the guests know just what
they are to do as soon as the
cars arrive at the theater door
There is naturally crowd, ant
the less confusion the better.
There is hardly any function
whether 1t Is the most elaborate
ball or the most informal supper
party, that is not vastly improved
by careful planning.

Hot Towel Applications Often Help
Alleviate Pain Of Severe Backache

fact that it is difficult to empty
completely all of the contents.
Pain in the bladder itself, or di-
rectly over it, may also cause con-
siderable discomfort.
THE patient will usually find a
measure of relief in taking
plenty of drinking water, or in
using hot towels over the blad-
der, or from taking a hot Sitz
bath. I find that the patient
makes the best progress when
placed on plain water fast, as
an abundance of water will keep
the organ comparatively clean of
irritating material. Sometimes it
is advisable to add milk of mag
nesia to the water being used in
the fasting regimen, especially if
the kidney elimination is highly
acid

ZONE one in the Office the other
y day was holding forth about
the manners of people in the thea
ter. He seemed to think that
women were the worst offenders.
Do you agree with him?
Much as l hate to admit that
my sex can outdo the men in Of
fending-I am afraid he is right.
But l don't know just what can
be done about it.
The last time | went to the
theater I set myself to watch the
audience rather than the stage
luckily it was a performance l
had already seen. I sat behind
a very "grande dame" sort of
person, one of the vintage
that drapes herself in scarves,
beads, lorgnettes, handbags, opera
glasses and feather boas. She
really did have feather boa

But to get back to the wearer.
She clanked and ratified and
rustled. She kept changing her
position and dropping her glasses
and opening her purse. She fused
and fumed until everyone near
her was disturbed. There was no
apparent reason for her noisiness.
A CROSS the aisle there were
~ three young school girls.
There is little need to describe
them-they were acting just as
you would expect three young
school girls to behave. They were
noisy, giggling and crunching
candy and swapping gum.
Beside me sat a young couple
very evidently much in love. Or
at least they were putting on a
very good act.
Now I suppose that all these
people, and the 300 or 400 that

One of the most picturesque
and delightfully."- native costumes
of Mexico is that called the
"Chino poblano," the Chinese
woman from Puebla. This con-
sists of a lined, red flannel skirt
with about 16-inch border of
sequins; elaborately embroidered
blouses with short sleeves, usually
with background of white, and a
reboso worn crossed in the back,
over the shoulders and wound
around the waist.
The origin of the Chino poblano
is one of the most interesting
legends of Mexico. In the early
part of the Eighteenth Century
there was a we'll esta blished busi-
ness of selling Chinese slaves to
the wealthier residents of Mexico.
One such slave was sold to a
rich merchant of Puebla and she

huipa with long sleeves which
looks like a smock and reaches
below the knees.
In the state of Tabasco the cot
ton petticoat with few yards of
calico wound around the waist,
or a sleeve frock, is the dress.
Essentially these garments make
up the clothing of the southern
Mexican woman.
In southern Mexico both sexes
wear their hair long, parted in
the middle and hung in loose
tresses over the shoulders, or
looped up on the back of the
head. On festive occasions they
wear flowers in the hair as
we'll as phosphorescent beetles.
Feather tufts and skins of green
birds are used as ornaments, as
well as necklaces of gold nuggets
and amber beads. Formerly noses
and ears were pierced for plugs
of stone, wood or amber and
rings of gold. In Oaxaca every
woman will spend her last peso
to own a pair of elaborate fill
gree earrings, and all are willing
to sell them, their most priced
possession, if it is possible to
make profit.

was such a dainty and petite fig
ure, well educated and so full OF
kindness that it was rumored that
she came from a royal family.
The costumes she always wore
and made for the bellies of the
town were the same as that
which has just been described.
This was called after her, "The
Chinese woman from Puebla" and
is now worn by almost all enter
tainers interpreting native dances.
Thus the life of the majority
of Mexicos women remains un-
changed throughout the centu-
ries, their only excitement, the
same as their ancestors, being
their daily trip to the market.
Tortillas will, no doubt, still be
made in Mexico four hundred
years hence, just as they were
four hundred years ago.

IN A fOMAN'S place is in the
w home is the moth-eaten
battle cry of the infuriated Amer
lean husband who abhors women
in business and American homes
are usually a good place in which
to spend ones time, what with
all the electrical helps for house
keeping and the radio to furnish
entertainment while the house
work is being done. But, would
the American housewife be will
ing to stay in her home if it con-
sisted of a one-room mud house
with dirt floor, no chimney or
windows and with the hogs. dogs
and chickens walking in and out
of the house Just like the star
boarders that they are in the av-
erage Mexican's home?
And would the American house
wife be content to trade her
smartly styled. printed house
dress for the long, full cotton
skirt, sash and short-sleeved cot
ton blouse and the inevitable
reboso that acts as a combina-
ton shawl and muff1ler to the
Mexican housewife, the whole
outfit not having as much shape
as a Greek toga? The Mexican
woman uses her reboso to carry
her baby or chickens in and, in
the south, it is supplemented by
large straw sombrero as a pro-
lection against the sun.
Long and loud would be the
call for emancipation if such were
the case in the United States!
But such is the case in 90 per-
cent of Mexican homes today. In
fact, less than one percent of the
women of Mexico today can afford
to wear the style creations which
are called American or Partisan.
And that one percent is confined
far more to her home than her
American counterpart although
the one percent will have three
household servants to her Amer
lean cousins one, but her life is
devoted to raising children and
making her husband comfortable,
when he is at home.
The one percent are as closely
guarded as the ladies in Turk
ish harem. But we are not con-
cerned with the upper crust one
percent but with the average 90
percent which is Mexico today.
IF SHE lives in Mexico City or
one of the other large cities of
the country, her home will be one
room in community house" or
as we would call it, an apartment.
Low, one-storied and flush with
the sidewalk. the house will be
built around an open patio which
acts as the children's playground,
washing and drying space, place
of retreat and in many cases the
family kitchen. Her room will be
about II by Il feet with one door
and if she is fortunate. a window
next to the door.
With her family of from five
to eight, she will not be crowded
as to furniture with the principal
piece acting as the parental bed
and table. Mats on the floor for
the children, a chair or two and
a box, a small charcoal brazier
and several dogs. In this small
place the family will love, laugh,
live and die without a thought to
the great spaciousness and health

mess that is outside of their city
limits.
She will not be impeded with
foundation garments or shoes and
the family washing won't worry
her. Her husband will probably
wear a stiff1y starched white shirt
over his everyday work shirt on
Sunday and she will wash the
ehildren's clothes in any nearby
stream or in the gutter in front
of her house, which usually acts
as the conduit for the city's wa
ter supply.
The furniture of the humble
dwellings is usually as forlorn as
the structure but the kitchen
utensils are sufficient for
woman's demands. An indispen-
sable piece is the metdte, an OBJ
long volcanic stone about II by
Is inches. smooth on the upper
surface and resting in slanting
position on three legs cut out of
the same piece.
With this is the metldpilH, or
muller, and large earthen pan,
the conldHi, in which to cook the
tortillas which are beaten out of
corn on the netdte. Dishes and
vessels are of calabash fruit,
gourds and pottery, some of
which are tastefully decorated.
PLANNING her meals doesn't
bother her although the very
first question in culture is food.
Maize tcorn), beans, tomatoes
and peppers mixed with variety
of things are the staple foods of
Mexico. Fruits, cactus pears and
game help to round out the diet.
Pulque, the national drink made
from the maguey cactus, or CEN
tury plant. is the best balancer
that a Mexican has for an aid to
his deficient diet.
AS the Mexicans never eat
enough fruit and vegetables to
offset properly the high protein
intake of corn and beans, the
plentiful supply of pulque is a
mixed blessing to Mexico. The
slight PERCENTAGE of alcohol, about
four percent, supplies the needed
ingredients for a balanced diet
which the Mexicans could have
in no other way except by eat
ing fruit and vegetables which,
usually, they detest. And in a
country where sugar cane, rice,
wheat, potatoes, peas, Brussel
sprouts, lettuce, cabbage, spin
ach, asparagus, broccoli, beets,
onions, squash, and numerous
other vegetables grow in abun-
dance, as well as oranges, pine
apples, bananas, grapes, grape
fruit, lemons, olives, pears, apples,
and countless tropical fruits
thrive, the natives still prefer
their tortillas and beans to their
plentifully homegrown products.
Quite universal as food are tor
tillas or corn cakes. The tough
outer skin is removed by soaking
the grains of maize for a night
in weak limewater The product
is then mashed or ground on the
netdte. From the paste the tor
tilla is formed by pattiing it into
a thin cake and then cooked on a
slab or in an earthen pan.
The tortilla is eaten with boiled
beans and a mixture of chilli and
fat. The soaked corn is also
roasted and made into Cruel, in
which cacao and sugar are mixed.
Tamales are chopped meat, pep
pers and onions, covered with
corn paste, the whole enveloped
in corn husks or plantain leaves
and boiled or baked.
