Your Health
Ky WILLIAM BRADY, N, D,

I suppose the notion that good beef, pork or mutton Uf you can get 'em) contains uric acid" or the makings of uric acid" and Is there. fore to be taken with caution if at all, in some cases of ll health, will last as long as the notion oi "gout' is kept in circulation by a few more or less eminent members of the medical profession. Believe it or not only the other day report of 100 cases of gout was published in an American medical journal by a group of three young doctors re- gently graduated, They are pretty vague about the diagnosis--you have to take 1t that they know gout when they see it, whereas, they observe with magisterial air that "ll cases of gount in this series Of 100 had not been correctly diagnosed during previous attacks, the diagnosis being first made in our clinics this would indicate that to nearly 80 per- cent of the many doctors you know. the many plain old practi- tioners who practice under their own names instead of making a noise like a clinic and keeping the gullible public properly impressed "who had examined and treated these patients gout was an un- known disease"
 These brass-cheeked clinic rac- keteers are so contemptuous of the plodding rank and file that they even mention that examination of the blood during the attack Of whatever trouble they called "gout" showed an average 5-s millerams of uric acid per 100 cubic cen;meters, while examination of the blood oi an equal number (25) of patients in the intervals between showed an average of 67 millgrams of uric acid per 100 cubic cenumeterS.
 Psychologists consider to { Milligrams of uric acid in 100 cu- bic centimeterS t3ia 1uidouncesD Of blood the normal average, that is the amount in hte blood Of a healthy person.

SOME TIN MONEY
Hy non HOPE

The biggest celebrity to hit New York this past week was william Nickel, cashier piggy wleely style, whom the police re- turned rom Miami to question about certain pin money Ring size, Five hundred curious people met the train at pennSylvania station, same size as the crowed that met me when I arrived from Holly wood.
 In fact, it was the same crowd except that steal my money money legitimately, I keep telling Paramount.
 when the police grabbed Nickel he was lying on the beach in that Florida sun singing Give me live minutueS more" bus he had a winderful tan and he was the envy of the morning police lineup
 can't understand why he would pick up all that extra lettuce un- less he wanted to make a down payment on ticket for the ArTny-Notre Dame game,
 Either that or he's a heavy tipper.
 His alibi was that he doesn't believe In strikes. SO he just took few raises for himself
 But it all confirms the upset economy that exists in our coun- try today, when it takes a mil lion dollars to make a nickel go that far.

Winter Season Brings Gain
 In Serious Auto Accidents

Winter months, says Lt William c. Dwyef in his weekly article on trafflc safety. bring more accidents. What with earlier darkness, storms, etc, more and more people become involved in automobile accidents, It Dwyers article follows
 This is the month ln New Eng. land when Nature takes on a gloomy aspect foreboding Of things Co come within the next few months. With foliage piled high everywhere, the cold rains failing from the gray clouds the general picture is somewhat depressing Yet, we should not fail to grasp the moral attached to this change in Natures dress. How short the time when these same leaves were bud. ding. now they are changed in color. withered. and have fallen down, back Co Mother Earth from whence they emanated.
 The normal span Of life for the mortal being Is a brief one indeed. We are all on the same highway, no detours. the end is certain, It is called our Destiny, Fate, Death or The beginning of a new life. How ever, from a practical point of view. we could say that rationing began with the creation of the world, only one life to a mortal. The way some people use the highways, the man. ner in which they drive or walk gives one the impression that they had a few lives to spare, like the proyerbial cat
 When the hours Of darkness in- crease in number so too does the accident rate rise sharply. especial. ly the type of accidents involving pedestrians The reasons for this upward trend are many. the most obvious being poor visibility Fail- ing to drive and walk according to the existing conditions. keeping the car windows closed. thereby forget ting to give a hand signal and last but probably the most important one the failure of many drivers to respect the few remaining rights of the pedestrians.
 It Is also true that some pedes- trians become involved in accidents through their own negligence. 1nci- den;ally. Waterbury experienced its tenth fatality of the year during the current week. when a pedestrian who was struck by an automobile died a few hours later at a local hospital During the entire year Of l945, Wa erbury had a total of ten fatalities on the highways What can be done about the situation? Where does the solution lie2 Only by individual effort. let's all de doubly alert during the coming ormy months
 To pedestrians we ask that you cross only al intersections, If there is a traflc signal. obey 1t. Always look all ways before crossing Cross directly, not diagonally. Be sure you have time ;o cross without having 70 run When walking along high way where there are no sidewalks, always walk on the left shoulder Of the highway facing on-coming traf- fc. To the drivers Have some con- slderation for the pedestrian.

Even so, I'm still unconvinced that there is such malady as "gout' or a painful con- dition caused by excess of uric acid in the blood or by deposits of mon- sodium urate in the tissues.
