WHILE many of us know about
w removing tonsils by electro
surgery, we may not know that this
method, the electric knife" as it
is called, also is used for other op-
erations. (The method-electro-c
agulation-involves using high fire.
quency current instead of knife
and scissors; it destroys the It's
sues by removing all their f1uids.)
When. and why is this ''elec-
trio knife" method used?
In Clinical Medicine" DR.. Gus
tavus M. Blech, Chicago, states that
the principal reasons for use of this
method, now an absolute necessity
in nerve and brain surgery, are Cd
tissues are divided with a least
amount of injury; all cells, danger
Gus and not dangerous, are de-
stroyed by coagulation; ca small
blood vessels are sealed or closed
by this method, preventing further
bleeding and the need for gauze
sponging, which irritates the surface
tissue when the surgical knife is
used; 60 pain following the opera
ton is slight because of the blunt
ing of the ends Of nerves.

KEEPING HEALTHY
Electric Knife Surqey
By DON MOORE
By Dr.. james w. Barton

The electrO-c0agulation meth
cd removes all malignant cells
dangerous, such as cancer
cells or suspected malignant
structures) to avoid carrying
malignant cells into the system,
thus reducing chances of starting
a growth (cancer) in other parts
of the body.
The next important use for coag'
ulation is in hemophilia (where the
blood will not clot) and in opera
tions on organs which are very rich
in blood and blood vessels, such as
the liver and spleen. Also, it is
valuable in an emergency when the
patient is anemic, rundown or ell
derly.
of course, in cases of plastic
surgery, surgery by the usual
method - the knife - should be
used because only tiny scars are
left, whereas scars made by
electrO-cOagulation are large and
slow in disappearing.
The type Of anesthetic used is 10
cal, spinal or into the veins, to pre-
vent any chance Of an explosion oc'
curing.

Answer: Yes, and I do not near
only "harsh words" For the feel
ings with which words become as
sociated may affect our attitude to-
ward the, things they describe. A
Swedish psychologist, DR.. o. Sundet
calls attention to the fact that in the
Scandinavian languages the words
which describe person who does
not drink have a disagreeable i'm
plcation, while those for intoxica'
ton suggest sympathetic feelings

Wait, though :, there is mail
from heaven, and you have it there
in your Bible. If you accept it for
what it is, the Word of God, then it
is the Word from heaven. To be
sure, it does not tell us much about
heaven. If you were actually ira
yelling to Chicago, you would not
begin by studying a street-map of
that city. What you would need is
a map of the roads between.
So the Bible is not a guide
book to the "City Four-square;"
it is more of a road-map to help
US find the way between here
and there. Nevertheless, the BIZ
BILE does assure us that heaven
Is real.
Christians have, many reasons for
believing in the reality of the future
life, and some of these may not be
in the Bible; but the best reasons
are there.

Answer: That may depend, not
on how "really" she loves him, but
on what a kiss means to her. And
remember, kisses mean quite diff
ferent things to different people.
In pre-war Japan, for instance, a
kiss was considered so extreme an
intimacy that the censors cut all
kissing scenes out of the movies. At
the other extreme, know social
groups in which kiss is regarded
as merely bit more cordial than
a handshake. But courtship is diff
cult when certain actions appear
terribly important to one partner
and trivial to the other.J

Heaven Begins With God

THE CURE for the troubled heart,
Jesus said, is faith in God. One
of the strongest reasons for believ-
ing that the future life is real, is the
nature and character of God him
self. Jesus said as much once, in an
argument with men who did not
believe in Immortality: God is not
the God of the dead, but of
the living" If we we're, God S
paper dolls or toy soldiers, he might
weary of us as a child wearies of
it's toys. and sweep US all into de-
struction without moment S
thought. But if we are truly his
children, then when ife's evening
comes, he will call his tired child
rem home.
Eternal Life has two sides,
the heaven-side and the earth
side. The church has never be-
lieved that simple immortality
is the same thing as the heaven
ly life.
A Judas, when he dies. goes Gas
Peter sadly said) ito his own
place." A Judas carries out his own
hell with him. But a man like Paul,
or any Christian who has been at
home with God here on this earth,
when at last death comes. will, as

miliaf beckOned
Unto his fitting place."

Christ Is Risen

MANY PEOPLE feel it would be
4vA easier to believe in the future
life is someone who had been across
the line of death would return
across that line to bring a message
from the beyond. So they attend
seances and they listen to table
tappings and go through all manner
of weird performances in order to
get word or two from someone
who has passed on.
But all the time we do have q
record of a Return. Indeed it is
The Return. We call it the
Resurrection. The message Of
Easter is not summed up in
songs about some Beautiful
Isle of SOmewhere;" it is in
these three words: "Christ is
riSen!"
He did not return in darkness, he
was not under the control of any
medium" he did not make him.
self known by ghostly hauntings. He
was seen at supper-tables, he spoke
to his friends on mountainside, he
came to fishermen on a spring
morning by lake shore. The ear
iest Christians doubted some
things; but few doubted that the
Lord was risen indeed.

Sheetings were quiet. Osnaburgs
sold in a limited way for January
and February shipment.
Merchants generally were opti-
mistic that with the turn Of the
year buyers again would enter
the market in a substantial way
for forward deliveries.
The wool goods market was
steady but generally quiet. Some
mills were reported selling addi-

value" basis.
Australian wool prices continued
to- rise but some merchants said
prices were leveling of In South

Two important financial in
dices came through with solid
backing for the claim that bust
ness is whooping It up in these
final weeks of the dying year.
Bank clearings established a
20-year peak and money in cir
culation was the highest since
the spending splurge incident to
New Years Day celebrs lions last
January. - In addition to heavy
spending at stores. a big wave of
dividend payments boosted the
total.
Check transactions at banks
added up to $17.253.0 100000. This
was the highest since $20,825.-
100000 was cleared in the week
of October 81, 1929. In marked
contrast with the bright economic
picture responsible for this weeks

aggregate was made up to q large
extent by checks written and
