"Well, Phil" he said, "what do

ALL of us may be a bit under the
weather mentally at times. On the
average, every other hospital bed
in the United States is occupied by
a mental patient.
The person who is mentally ailing
or mentally sick may be the least
ready to sense the need of psychia-
trio aid. Usually some other member
Of the family discerns this need
first. When he or she does, the fam
lily physician should be asked to
recommend a psychiatrist "a psy-
chiatrist is an M. D. who specializes
in mental sickness). 1t may require
skillful planning then to get the per.
son to go willingly to the psychia-
trist. Sometimes a friend can help
in this direction. Then there is the
problem Of winning the relatives,
few close friends and other mem
bers Of the family to proper under
standing and attitudes toward the
patient. Sometimes the fact that
this person is being treated as a
mental patient should be revealed
to these other persons, sometimes
1t shouldn't. Let the psychiatrist ad-
wise thereon. Needless to say that
mental illness in any member Of the
family affects all other members,
including the children.
Taken Forcibly
Not nearly SO many patients are
willing to enter . mental hospital
when professionally advised to do
so as the number who are willing
to enter regular" hospital. Some
mental patients must be taken fore

Aspirin Unsafe
For Certain
People to Take
By HERMAN N. BUNDESEN. MD.

ASPIRIN is an effective drug for
stopping pain and reducing fever.
AS such, it is most useful, but it is
not something to take-as so many
people do today-on a hit-or-miss
basis as panacea for every pain.
AS matter of fact, though most
of us can take aspirin safely, it may
hold definite dangers for certain
people. 1t should never be used ex-
cept under the doctors directions,
for instance, by those suff ering from
severe heart weakness or any kind
of kidney trouble. Others who, it is
suggested, had better let it alone
are diabetes and people who use
alcohol to excess.
Allergic Reactions
Some perfectly healthy indiyid-
uals cannot use aspirin because in
them it causes allergic reactions.
one or two ordinary tablets being
enough to produce swelling Of the
tissues, hives, redness of the ewes.
and depressed heart action. These
reactions may occur from Is min
utes to three hours after the drug
is taken.
On the other hand, a good many
people who are sensitive to aspirin
are already suffering from some
other allergic disease, such as asth-
ma or hay fever. Others likely to be
allergic are patients with polypi or
little tumor growths in the nose
and, in such cases, aspirin sensi-
tivity first causes symptoms affect
ing the lining membranes of the
nose, throat and lungs; next, those
affecting the skin and, finally, those
which upset the stomach and bowel.
Often enough, the allergic disorder
itself is made worse by the taking
of aspirin.
People often wonder how much
aspirin would have to be taken be-
fore it could produce symptoms Of
poisoning. Ordinarily it would re-
quire very large dose-somethine
like to 10 grams or from "a to 80
OF the usual aspirin tablets. In sensi-
tive people, however, a much smaller
amount has been known to cause
severe and even fatal reactions.
Children Under Four
In children under four years Of
age, particularly in those who are
weakened or sickly, doses of y of
gram up to 2A grams cause such
disturbances as loss of fluids from
the body, vomiting and commissions.
Thus, it can be seen that aspirin.
like all other drugs, should be used
with care. Patients who are dis
turbed by taking it should consult
with their physician to determine
whether or not they are allerpic TO
aspirin. If sensitive, they should. of
course, not employ the drug there
after. 1t sometimes is possible to
tell when a person is allergic to the
drug by placing a little on the
tongue. In cases Of allergy, this is
followed by coughing, itching and
swelling of the tongue.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
A Reader: When work in water
my fingers won't straighten up.
What could be the cause?
Answer: It is not possible to de-
termine exactly what is causing
your difficulty. You should have an
examination made by your physi-
clan to determine if any abnormal
condition is present.
The difficulty may be due to mus
