Little Tumors In Nose May Cause
 Infection; Should Be Removed

Because they obstruct the flow of materials from the nose, they may aid in setting up infection. It is, therefore. desirable that such little tumors be removed.
 Sometimes the blood vessels in the nose will form in little knots ex- actly as they do within the skin. Or a blood vessel in the nose oc- casionally may become dilated and varicose. Any physical disturbance of this kind will result in symptoms, and, as result, the growth. or dis ordered structure will have to be removed.
 It is, of course, possible for a growth in the nose, like one else where in the body, finally to be- come malignant and begin growing 50 rapidly and viciously that it destroys the tissue around it. This is the natur. of cancer.
 The chief symptom, whenever there is obstruction of any kind ir the nose, is the secondary infec- ton. Eventually such infection be- comes purulent and offensive. If it involves the blood vessels t.ere may also be bleeding. The glands of the body help to remove infectious material, so that when- ever such infection or obstruction is present, nearby glands become en- larged.
 The causes of growths and tumors of various kinds are not definitely known, but some contributory fac tors are recognized. Some authori- ties are convinced that polyps never occur except when there is infec- ton.
 It is not possible for the aver age person to diagnose the presence of nasal 2olyps for himself. The doctor examines the interior of the nose by looking into the nasal cav ity. He will stretch the nostrils and by means of special light, be able to view the most minute changes ir membranes.
 Polyps and tumors are sometimes removed by surgery, by use of caus. tic substances, or by use of radium Each of these methods requires tht services of an expert equipped witf necessary apparatus and materials. Sometimes a new crop of polyp. form afte4 one crop has been re- moved. People in whom such polyp. form continually will find that there is nothing to do but to keep or having them removed. In most in stances. however. application of ra' alum will prevent return.
 There are instances on record ir which the removal Of polyp or sim. liar tumor has been followed by tho disappearance of chronic infection In tho nose in other instances, bS the disappearance Of aAthmatlt symptoms or similar conditions.
 Az has already been mentioned p0lypa ' Il occasionally form in tho Hlnllaeb as well as in tho nose itself Diagnosis and removal oi tho p0lypi from the HinnAcs obviously arc more discult than b removal from the

Uetl LlIIIcS WIlcIl the Greek letter chi which looks like our capital x, was used as an abbreviation for Christ" Many, not understanding, confused 1t with the letter x, commonly used to de- note an unknown quantity in AL gera. Those who wanted to save time or space used the symbol to spell Christmas Xmas" The mis- conception grew. It was never worth the trouble it caused. It never held the beauty and power and the dignity of the name spelled out with its nine English letters.
 Full Spelling-FulI Meaning
 It is grand commentary on Amer lea to observe that the full spell ing is being reinstated. Not often now, do those who hold a real ap- preciatiou of Christmas, abbreviate 1t Xmas. After all, the day de- serves its full dignity or 1t should have no place on our calendar. If we do not understand why we ob- serve an infants birthday we might as well be celebrating pagan hol- iday.
 After all, whether or not one believes that the child who was born in the stable early one morning in Bethlehem, as the crowds went up to Jerusalem tC pay their annual tribute to Cae- sar, is the son of God, has noth- ing to do with the fact that the name should be used in its en- tirety. The day deserves its full name. It's a lovely one. Why not use 1t? t
 It is freighted with memories of candle Lighted trees, stockings heavy beneath the load of dolls and horns and tops and oranges carols and snowflakes and plum buildings, and the spirit of giving running rampant whether 1t is quarter or ten thousand dollars you are spending.
 Giving Is Tee Limited
 There are those who criticizs the fact that giving is limited tt those we love and hold as friendi rather than to the needy. Certain. ly we have sharing to do. first o all. Nor should we forget tha to the children who wait witt batcd breath for q red-coatet saint with white whiskers t drive his reindeer over the roof our first duty Is due. However whether it is popcorn or pearll we give to those VIC love, 60 loni as we are able to. why shouidn' VIC give presents? There is all thl difference Go the Kings Englial between 'oxchhnging" and "giv' Ing" gifts. To give is . nlcc cus' tt0m. The m0rev r'1''fnt h'

likely to go nto a Salvation Army cauldron or the Day Nurs- cry treasury, anyway.
 In the Christmas number of a current magazine, there is a story of a wealthy woman who contin- ually was requested to give at Christmas time. No one bought a present for her. "Why should we? She has everything" the people said. Yet, Christmas after Christmas. sine treasured a little trinket that a former cook once had sent her.
 It's the Giving That's Important
 It isn't what you give. It is how you give. If you have money, why not share 1t gratefully with those who need 1t and those whom you wish to make happy? If you haven't, then the mite you bring is as blessed as the King's ransom. A white gift was con- sidered most precious on the birthday Of . great king In on eastern land. On that day his subjects came bearing rice. pigeonS pearls, eFlnlne-"and it fiiattered not in the great kings sight what the gift might be. 50 long as all gifts were white"

 Your Children
By Olive Roberts Barton

Now, every mother has soma thoughts for giving to less fortunate children at Christmas. This is right, and should be part of the great day as surely as planning for the fam fly. If the purse allows only as much as ten cents, that is enough. If it will stand ten dollars, better still. sr~ Soometimes giving of an altru- istic nature is done by way of the hospital, or the organization, inc, stead of privately. Perhaps it does not include children at all, but older people who will have too lean a time of it. The manner of giving does not matter, so long as it in- cludes some person or persons who need attention.
 But we have to be very careful. Not one thing that is presented to others should hurt feelings. And feelings" are different in different people. One child might look ques-' tioningly at his rough brown nlit- tens, and then at the gay ones of your son, and be thinking, These, are warm and comfortable, but I wish I had pretty pair like Sam my's," Sammy being your own boy, not the little fellow who lives in the rear.
 Cruelty of Contrasts have my own ideas about the child who is invited in to ad- mire the gorgeous toys of our own holidays, only to compare them with his own meager playthingS at home. Children are not jealous, but there is something rather cruel in con- trasts. If he is invited in, have something quite wonderful to give him. It will make you happier than 1t does him. w The same idea, think, should hold with all such giving. Old Mrs. Smith might be grateful for a few cans of soup. But perhaps she is not as happy about it as we think, unless she is real oddity and 8. rare person indeed. whose sense of appreciation outweighs her sense of romance. We must remember this word. 'sa No being, however poor or needy, ever quite loses imagination and a longing for lovely things Maybe Mrs. Smith needs soup, Tor coffee or a new market basket; but at Christmas she may feel much more set up with pie or pudding. Anyway, she dislikes being marked for need. Sensitive without reason. you say? Who isn't? We all are, Pride is an odd thing. Let us not destroy it.
 Merriment Rather Than Wisdom
 The useful gift is, of course, very often the wisest thing, but is Christmas the time or place for too much wisdom? Do we color our own celebration with wisdom? Or with holly and foolish glass balls?
 At any rate, the fitness" of gifts, should play a part. If our present is going to lower anyo1e's self respect. or make him feel con-, trast too keenly. then it Is better not given at all. have always recommended the gay gift. Remem- Der there are 365 days in the year. One day surely, has its claim to joll- ity
 Mrs. Smiths soup, or Jimmy's brown mittens, would be very much appreciated on New Years, or any other day. Today they must be done. at least, in the trap pings of Christmas with bright paper and ribbon, and perhaps. 8 holly sprig in the bow. Any. thing to preserve a sense of dis tinction. But not the distinction of difference" or misfortune. 5~~ Copyright, 1886, NEA Service, Inc.3
