SALTS AND HEMoRRHoIr

SALTS AND HEMoRRHOIDS
A week ago we said here:
The popular habit Of resorting to
physic to regulate" the bowel Is o
prolific cause Of hemorrhoids and of
pelvic congestion, especially the
cheaper and more popular physics
which contain cascara, aloes, SIENNA
and other crude, drastic urges. Even
mineral oil, phenolphthalein and
the milder saline laxatives must be
regarded as predisposing causes Of
piles or pelvic congestion In men or
women.
Frequent or habitual employment
Of these alleged lads" or Of the
equally unnatural enema, rectal in
lection, bowel wash, colon irriga-
ton, or internal bath" as simple
souls call 1t, is O factor not only OF
piles, but also Of chronic proctitis,
painful assure, harassing pruritus,
and numerous vague complaints OF
men and women.
Bear In mind we are dealing with
hygiene, the prevention Of hemor-
rhoids particularly. We leave the
treatment Of an attack Of piles TO
the Judgment Of the physician. In
such cases the physician may have
occasion to prescribe salts Of one
kind or another and with distinct
relief to the sufferer; just as physi-
clans may prescribe with advantage
enemas or the other agents above
interdicted, when the circumstances
indicate 1t. But there Is O vast DIFF
ference between sound medicine and
good hygiene.
A doctor destroying his own busi-
ness is as uncomfortable as O soldier
engaged In similar self-extermina-
ton. Between wars the soldiers
keeps his gun In order and invents
more dreadful devices which are to
preserve or enforce peace; his pay
and pension are assured even II the
next war does not come until he
Is retired. The doctor devotes what
spare time he can afford or steal
to the study Of hygiene and the
practice of Preventive Medicine, but
draws little or no pay for his ef-
forts In this direction. Less than /
per cent of his clientele even con-
siders the ACCESSIBILITY Of consulting
the doctor formally for prophylaxis,
prevention Of illness, immunization
information and advice concerning
vital problems Of life such as mar
riage, puberty, menopause, retiring
from business activity, climate oc-
cupational hazards, or for inven-
tory, periodic physical examination.
health overhaul. The great majority
of Americans still stumble along
on the strange ideas they irnbibe
from nostrum literature and testi-
monials and such hints regarding
hygiene as they may happen to pick
up free of charge here and there.
So far as we know there is never
good reason for frequent or regular
use of any kind Of saline laxative
or cathartic or purgative. either for
prevention or for relief Of disease.

bility that the child who never hears
anything but the sweetest words or
knows what this tough old world can
be like, will become representative

certain people can be. And, unless
he Is O curiosity, he will have to

So, good mother, II 1t so happens
that your little boy, or your little
girl hear things, see things and ex-
perience things unfriendly to them,
I don't think I'd run for the Weep

And realism is Just about flfty-fifty,

Girl of the Golden West" translated back

that it troubles him to think of a throaty

singers essay italian and French and

should not be too much, then, to expect
them to attempt English And if their
failure were too painful, some otherwise
neglected American aspirants would be
available for consideration. Indeed, 1t
is conceivable that opera as cultural
