FOOD UNDERGOES its most
profound digestive changes in the
small intestines. Here it comes into
contact with the secretion from the
parcreas. This is the most powerful
of the digestive secretions, and is
capable of digesting any form Of
foodstuff-protein, starch and fat.
The pancreas lies in the upper abb
domen-a long, narrow gland which
enpties it's secretion into the first
part of the intestine, just outside
the end of the stomach. This secre-
tlon then meets and mixes with the
food Immediately as 1t leaves the
stomach. It is quite abundant,
amounting to about a quart a day.
The mechanism Of the secretion re-
Veals one of those remarkable little
ADJUSTMENTS Of which living organ
lsns are all compact. The stomach
contents are acid. AS they are eject
ed in small squirts, they inpinge on

Ho,u the Small Intestine
and Its Glands Function

Another pancreatic engine, amy
lase, converts starchy food to sim
Eple forms and acts much as does
THE ptyalin in the salivary Secre-
ton.
Finally the pancYeas furnishes an
Ienzyne which digests fats lipaSe.
This is the only place in the diges-
tive system where fats are digested.
The simultaneous action Of all
these engines - converting every
kind of food into forms that the
body can use should convince any
one Of the nonsense on which one Of
1.-The present popular dietary fads Is
based, the idea that we should not
eat protein and starchy food at the
same time.
Considering the central ifnpor-
Etance Of the role Of the pancreas in
digestion, tits well that it is subject
to few diseases and those very rare.
It is true that acute and chronic
Epancreatitis occur, but I have passed
over thirty years in the practice Of
medicine without seeing more than
half q dozen examples Of both put
together.
The other large gland which emp
ties secretion (bile) into the duo
denum at this point--the liver-is
not primarily a digestive' gland. But
the bile does help the pancreatic Sc
cretion in digesting fats. Much Of
the pleasure and desire for food
which we get comes from this
smooth digestion Of fats. An se111i-
-nent surgeon told me that after he
had a sgallbladder operation, for,
a while no bile escaped into his In.
'testine. He was melancholy and
miserable. And he wildly described
the surge Of joy that came over him
when the function was re-estab-
lished, and bile once more poured
forth to join the pancreas.

Vt SEEMS to be only a matter Of
time before some bright person
steps in and remedies the little
L unpleasant things in life, doesn't
it? For instance, the matter of drafts.
For years we have been shouting at
people to close doors to prevent cold
causing draft which might send us
sneezing and coughing to our sick
beds. But even though the door was
closed, we have all encountered the
same uncomfortable draft as it found
its way under the door.
At last even that plague has been
conquered, and We can now shut our
selves in room secure in the knowl-
edge that not breath Of unwanted
air will enter. The device which brings
about such happy state of affairs
is a simple fixture which is placed
at the bottom OF each vulnerable door,
and in spite of its eficient work is
a relatively fool-proof arrangement.

With five hearts in his hand, South
should have been content to let his op-
ponent play one of that suit. How
ever, for some reason best known to
himself, he was afraid that If he
passed he might be missing a game.
West opened the king of diamonds, fol-
lowed with the queen and then played
the deuce, East winning with the nine

won with the ace and played his re-

threw declarer in with club.
Declarer cashed two clubs and
spade and was down matter OF 1,1OO
points on a hand against which his
opponents would have had great trou-
bic making one heart!
Souths disaster was due entirely to
his neglecting an old principle of bid
ding. namely: When holding great
length in the opponents trump suit, it
is sound policy to play defensively
rather than to obtain the contract
yourself.
