SHOTGUN SERVES A PURPOSE
 A favorite dogma of individuals or groups who would set up as censors of what physicians prescribe is that shotgun formulas, mixtures or combinations are ''unscientific" and hence must be rejected. To discoun- tenance the use of such polyvalent remedies implies that no illness or health impairment can be due to more than one factor. Such theory would greatly simplify the practice of medicine, If it only worked out satisfactorily in practice. But nature does not follow rules; she makes lem.
 Recently @ committee of the na- tional medical association proclaim ed htat there is no adquate ground for the use of mixtures or combina- tions of several vitamins. This on thes right hand, while on the left current issue of the official organ of the national medical association devotes page (for 8 price) to com mendationS of medicinal food which purports to provide not only several vitamins but also calories, carbohydrate, fat, protein, phos- phorus, calcium, iron, copper, and to be good for-well, for childrenl
 As matter of common sense 1t would appear that while vitamin deficiencies are quite common whether recognized or not, the physical or functional impairments due to vitamin deficiencies are sel- dom or never attributable to lack of a single vitamin but practically always indicate shortages of two or more vitamins. And this is natural enough, for 1t is rare to find single vitamins in nature-invari- ably vitamins occur in combination of two or more. For examples: bananas contain A. B. c and G; egg yolk contains A, B, c and G; wheat contains B, c and E. tomato or tomato juice raw or factory can- ned, contains A. B. c and G.. In fact the spacious objection against shotgun" vitamin combinations is tuted authorities who raise this ob- jection know little about vitamins.
 One of the characteristic signs of Tickets (which is due to lack of vita min ID is pot-belly, costiveness, tympaniteS (distension by gaS) and fabby muscle tone in the intestine. In my opinion a moderate shortage of vitamin D in adults is a common factor of these or similar symptoms, although we know vitamin B and vitamin c deficiencies are important factors of impaired digestion. From purely clinical observations and the spontaneous reports of many human guinea pigs, it seems well es- tablished that an adequately in- creased intake of B, G and D daily may be what most victims of these symptoms need to correct their trouble. At any rate I am satisfied an increased intake of B, c and D, as in irradiated yeast-not the kind of yeast used for baking, but dried brewers yeast which has been sub- jected to ultraviolet rays of cer- tain limited wave-length to impart vitamin D-restores intestinal vigor in these cases, and I use the term physiologically, not as minced slang.
 A point about yeast which should be better known: Yeast that is suit able for use in baking Is compara- lively poor in vitamins and causes considerable fermentation in stom- ach. Yeast suitable for medicinal use is pasteurized, will not ferment food, and is comparatively rich in vitarnins.

t11C WO1tldA1 WILL made the first wesrwaro solo flight over the Atlantic Ocean. Mrs. Mark ham, who headed into low clouds over the Atlantic, was greeted royalty at the New York airport.
 Because of that, she expected a similar demonstration in England. She asked that her two children be kept at home that they might not be emotionally disturbed by the crowd. But when the slim young flyer reached Southampton only the Mayor, with his official dignity, and Capt. Percival, designer of her plane, were waiting for her. At the Waterloo Station three friends had gathered.
 Mrs. Markham had been head lined in newspapers few weeks before. Those papers were dead, the world had new protagonists, and the only way she could have merit ed a wholesale reception would have been by flying home in record time, too.
 Some may say that a prophet is not without honor save in his own country, and that this accounts for the lack of English fanfare and drums. Perhaps. But there was no dearth of cheering and confetti and handshaking on the steps of the City Hall on the first trans Atlantic solo flight. The bands played faster, too, and the people cheered when Amelia Earhart hung up the wo- mans first record.
 It may be that flying the Atlantic is growing to be such acustomary undertaking that we no longer feel that the one to brave the elements alone above the sea deserves drum, a fife and bugle to lead him up the streets. However, Mrs. Mark hams American reception bellies that fact. Her conquest was new when she came to the New York airport. It had just happened. Now it is nine days old, and more.
 
 Service to 2 Vision
 
 Those demonstrations which were held along the streets of New York, when Jimmy Walker, in his frock coat and tall silk hat, escorted every celebrity, are forgotten today. Yet time after time, the Macon, the official welcoming boat, went down the harbor, and bands led the parade as someone who had ac- complished something, somehow. somewhere came into the city.
 Accomplishment can be valued only in so far as 1t has a progress sive, helpful bearing on charting the paths of civilization. The pio- neers of the air, with a far-fiung vision of world travel through the air trails, may not be remembered always individually. Their reward must come in the part that they have played in the advance of aeronautics. One who fies for the sake of a deep interest in the new transportation may be hurt briefly when the crowds forget so soon. However, his interest being selfless, he will understand.

casionally. however, substances will be inhaled through the smaller tubes into the lung tissue itself, causing immediate, constant spasms of coughing.
 If the foreign body is not prompt ly removed, an abscess is likely to form around 1t. Occasionally the presence of 8 foreign substance in the lung may be associated with an attack of pneumonia, because pneu- monia germs are ever present in the human body.
 Specialists in the art of what is called bronchoscopy (because it involves the use of instruments which enable Q doctor to look di- rectly into the bronchial tubes) are able occasionally to pass these de- vices down into the lung and to withdraw foreign substance s through the instruments.
 Remember never to delay when a substance has been inhaled into the lungs. Immediate action makes the task of the doctor much easier than the removal of such 8 foreign substance after weeks or months have passed.

After the man had been deaf for A years, doctor removed the hard ened mass and the patients hearing was immediately restored.
 If an insect gets into the ear, the head should be turned to one side and the ear filled with warm sweet oil. This is best introduced with a medicine dropper, but may be poured from g spoon if no dropper is avail able.
