Garlic

For my high blood pressure have been taking garlic pills but they are very expensive. (R. s.
 Answer-Neither garlic itself nor any extract, concentrate or deriva- tive of it has any effect on blood pressure.I Lucky (for your welfare) the nostrum is expensive. High blood pressure. like high body tem- perature or high pulse rate. occur as manifestation or symptom of many different disease conditions. Therefore it is silly to try this or that remedy which purports to be good for it. Instead of squardering your money on such nostrums, you should invest in an examination by a good doctor-and leave it to the doctor to decide what, if any, thing, to do about the blood pres- sure.

QUESTIONS and ANSWERS
 Tuberculosis

This pamphlet tells about resis- tance to tuberculosis. You claim there is scientific basis for the idea of resistance. (B. L. s.
 Answer-That is true. SO far as the common use of the term is concerned. The pamphlet = How Your Body Fights TB," issued by National Tuberculosis Association, 179O Broadway, N. Y. City, is an excellent one. In it is the word resistance" obviously means IM- MUNITY. Immunity is scientifi- cially recognized, definite. climically Resistance" is just a lot of hooey, wherever and when ever the term is employed in medi- cal literature.

But he did not have the Nazi dirty work to do. His assignments per- mitted him to fight clean. As much of glory as is left in war, and more than accrues to most leaders whose side is foredoomed to defeat, colored his spectacular career.
 Not so much a strategist as willy tactician, and not so much 0A A- novator as a daring gambler with 8 ready-made set of tricks, Marshal Rommel repeated himself once too often in Africa. He did not show himself capable of defending Fort- ress Europe.
 He wrote striking page of mili- tary history. It is pity he could not have done so serving decent cause.

ing Patman nuts. Consequently Patman
is very glad that Patton is not coming back.
You see Patton has been thorn in the side
of Patman because people are always mistaking

Just so there can be no confusion Patman
is not Patton and never has been, although both
are from Texas. That is TO say, they were from
Texas Patman will still continue to be from
Texas, but Patton will not be from Texas because
he will remain in Texas and not return to Wash
