But first there is some general ad-
vice which the srthritic patient
should take to heart. The most
important pieces of such advice
are the counsel of patience: map
out a program of treatment and
stick TO it.
The patient with arthritis Is in
one or two respects the most I'M
fortunate person on earth-every-
body can see he is lmping or else
is crippled in the hands, and
everybody wants to give him adj
vice and he can't even walk away
from it. His mind tends to be-
come very changeable.
/ recently heard man who Is
at the head of large business or
ganization telling with great ear
nestness about some machine for
the cure of arthritis. AS / got it,
if you stand in front Of the ma
chine with a glass of tomato juice
in one hand and an orange in the
other, they have different poten-
tialities and the machine can tell
what kind of arthritis you have.
Then you put them down and roll
over and the machine treats you
for it. This man didn't know
whether the machine was electric
ity or what it was. If somebody
tried to sell him the same kind Of
idea about his business he would
be hustled out in no time.
Now don't care what he does
with his arthritis. But what he
was doing is typical of the kind
Of advice the poor arthritic pa
tent is always getting. And it
puts him off the track and keeps
him mixed up.

himself or some member of the
family does it. The American
Medical Association recognizes
this and has just published a rec
commended list of measures in
physical therapy that can be car
ried out at home.
Everybody, even the patient
with Arthritis. recognizes that
physical treatment is the best for
the condition. Physical therapy
includes the use Of heat and cold,
manipulation and exercise Of some
kind. Every arthritic learns that
the use Of pills and medicines il
Of only temporary benefit, and be-
sides is likely TO upset the stom-
ach. It's all right TO say climate
and a special sanitarium for arth-
ritis, but that is beyond the means
of most people and besides, in my
opinion, the benefits of climate are
over-rated. Altogether / am very
much in favor of the home treat
ment of arthritis.
Different Types OF Arthrltts
OF course. all arthritis is not
I g So ere are mlierent
kinds Of arthritis, such as chemi-
cal and infectious and degenera-
tive. Some cases which are thought
to be arthritis are not arthritis at
all, but simply an injury such as
a dislocated knee cartilage, or a
small bone fracture. But in the
course of time even these trau-
matte forms of arthritis have two
characteristics that all forms Of
arthritis have - they are painful
and there is limitation of motion.
And no matter what the cause or
classification, those are the symp-
toms that physical treatments are
likely to help.
l intend to describe some physi-
cal methods of treatment Of arth-
ritis this week. One will be on
manipulation, one on the use of
heat and cold, and one on exercise.
