Quinine Test for Golfer.

When a patient shows an enlarge
ment (slight or large) in the thy
roid gland in the neck, together with
q rapid heart, trembling OF the
limbs or general nervousness, the
physician usually advises a meta
bolism test to find out whether or
not the severe type OF goitre is pres
ent. In this type all the processes
including the heart beat are going
too rapidly. The patient goes to the
hospital or to the physicians Office
without breakfast some morning,
rests for about an hour, and then the
rate at which the body processes are
working is measured by this meta
bolism' tester. Sometimes more
than one examination is made if the
patient seems much excited.
1t is interesting to read in the
Journal of Clinical Medicine, St.
Louis, of the observations Of DR.. l.
Bran, Philadelphia, who states that
from my observations in a series
of more than 1000 cases it appears
that the quinine test for the severe
form of goitre is a dependable
guide, the chance or frequency of
being wrong being only one in every
twenty cases Is per cent?"
The ability to take or withstand
quinine appears to vary in differ
ent individuals but in exact ratio
or proportion to the metabolism
rate (rate at which the body proc
esses work. so that the higher the
rate the more quinine the individ-
ual can take without having any
symptoms OF quinine poisoning.
These symptoms are fullness in the
head, headache, a roaring sound in
the ears which interferes slightly
with the hearing. There may be
also skin eruptions, dizziness, COM
plete deafness and blindness for a
while, nose bleeding and vomiting.
This simple test-the more qui-
nine the patient can stand the more
serious the goitre condition--has the
advantage of requiring no costly ap-
parafus, no starving and no resting

An hour later, Hammond saw the
man again. The meal was finished
and Jack was strolling through the
camp with his guests; Kay had an
nounced a tremendous interest in
everything about her; she could not
wait until morning, she said.
So now, picking their way along
the dark passageways and trails
which passed as streets, Hammond
had done his best to give a picture
of the place, its beginnings, its
hopes. At last, tired, they had
turned homeward, Jimmy Moon
tagging somewhat in the rear.
CHANGING back, Hammond saw the
dim form of man follow the avi-
ator for few moments-at last
hating him. Jimmy was late
reaching the cottage.
"Where've you been?" asked
Kay. The pilot grinned.
"A fellow wanted me to make

Jimmy Moon. Jack caught the

sick of it. We're up here and let's
be honest as to why we're here
"Timmy!" in the reflected light
OF the doorway, Hammond saw that
the girls face had gone white; there
was rage in her eyes. The aviator
did not notice.

claimed. "We're all broke and we

"Oh, all right" The round little

Hammond pulled him off the We

led him down the trail.

"You rather spoke out Of turn

suggested.
Jimmy raised his head, pulling
hard for air.
"Yeh, I guess I did," he con-
fessed. Kay will hate me for that.

Hammond gasped.
''But they've always been the rich

"Yeh, with their heads in the air.
But they can't hold 'em up any
longer down there-that's why they
were SO glad to get out"
A certain grimness came into

Der 3I, 1886, and before the attain ment of age 65, will be counted as wages for the purpose of computing old-age benefits.
 QUESTION: How much will an individual receive as his Federal old age retirement benefit2
 ANSWER: From A minimum .Uf s10 a month to a maximum of SS5 a month for life, depending entirely upon the wages which he earns in industrial or commercial employment after 1886 and before the age of 965.
 QUESTION:: But suppose work ers's wages are less than $2,cOo, or suppose his 65th birthday occurs be- fore he has earned wages in five dif- ferent calendar years? Will he get anything?
 ANSWER He will get a sub stantial benefit, but not in the form of monthly payments. The law pro- vides that persons mho have earned some credit toward old-age benefits, but cannot meet all the requirements of the law, will be paid a lump sum equal to 3 1-2 per cent of their to- tai wages after 1886 and before reaching the age of 65. Similarly, for persons who die before reaching 65, the Federal Government, will pay 3 1-2 per cent of the total wages which have been credited to the workers old-age benefit account
 QUESTION:: How soon do these latter benefits become payable, and how many people are likely to ne- ceive them?
 ANSWER: It Is very roughly es- timated that six million dollars will be paid out in lump sum payments and death benefits during 1937, the first year in which these two forms of benefits will be payable and that approximately one and one-half mil lion persons will probably receive a total of 90 million dollars before January l, 1942, when the first monthly retirement benefits win be payable.

SQLONS FRAME
 LAWS TOCOVER SECURITY ACT

Setting up legal machinery fo- handling the social security act in the Territory, in the special 15-day session, five bills, two in the senate and three in the house, originally drafted by a joint committee, were introduced in the legislature recently.
 The senate bills provide for the creation of a department of public welfare which will have charge of the administration and also of the unemployment compensation.
 The house measures deal with the relief of destitution, dependent ehil- ,dren, old age assistance or pensions.
 The general appropriation bill, pas sed at regular session, set aside s4O3, ,0eO for aged residents of the Territory, 44,000 for dependent ehil- dren and S9s,O0o for the relief of the Restitution.
 The legislators got slightly side tracked from the governors admon- ition to consider nothing but the se- curity legislation" at the special ses- sion when one of the most important issues before the house became a question of mileage.
 The result was that the body sent telegram to Delegate Al. Dimond urging the payment of mileage. It was argued by the lawmakers that they were put to considerable ex- pense of staying in Juneau two weeks between the regular session and the special session without their pay of S15 day, and that therefore, to offset this expense, the legislators should be paid mileage which totals about S9,000 at the rate of 15 cents a mile.
 The cost of travelling to the var ious divisions was estimated as fol- lows:
 First, $500; Second, s5,OOO; Third S1 400; Fourth, s2,5O0.
 Bonded Indebtedness Bill Passes
 The legislature passed the two mil lion dollar bonded indebtedness mem- orial to be devoted to Territorial development program. This is a measure that has been urged by Del egate Dimond in Congress, and has been subject to considerable debate since its introduction earlier in rhe session.
 New Liquor Bill Explained
 Senator Rivers bill providing for the removal of the sale of wines and liquors from drug stores and other ] business houses and place the sale of the same in liquor stores under strict government licensing regulations passed the house with an amendment on the wholesaler status after-a bit ter fight that has been going on since the recent passage of this measure in the senate. The bill was immediately sent back to the Senate where the amendment was approved The passage of the River bill by , both branches automatically displaces the McCutcheon high license saloon measure formerly passed by the ] house.
