him from other Tommy Ryans
who might be around.
He once made his home in
Syracuse.
IRISH monickers were popular

often several who had adopted

by their home towns TO avoid
confusion.

QUESTIONS, ANSWERS

w. NJ. Are all forms Of heart
disease found out by having A
heart tracing on the electrocar-
diographp
Does this method definitely
establish whether one has an
gina peCt0ris?
Answer. The X-ray and the
stethoScope are more valuable
than the GleCtrocardiograph IN

cases in which the electrocardio-
gram is not final, but when II IS
definite it can be relied on.

ton rate IS a very delicate test
for many kinds of organic dis
