THE DETAILS
ROnnie - My daughter, aged
III, came home from school with
bitter tears the other day, and
when I questioned her, I learned
that she had had a very bad
time in school because my hus-
band and I had gotten into the
local newspaper headlines in an
Iargum emit over international
affairs.
My husband is a very out
spoken man and has very strong
opinions. happen to agree with
him, but I do not believe in en-
barrassing my children by TAX
ing the issue publicly on a ques-
Ition that arouses such bitter
feelings.
My little girl was singled out
for some nasty attention at
school, and the teacher actually
encouraged the other children to
go after her for her "views." My
little girl actually does not have
any views of her own, but she
lis being burdened with respon-
sibility, not only for what her
father says, but for the way his
critics distort his views.
Knowing human nature, I
realize how futile it is to cope
with this thing, but my husband
gets stirred up and wants to fight
twice as hard. I am afraid Of
what this will do to our child.
AL believe in sticking to my
guns. I realize that my daughter
may get picked on because of
the notoriety I have had, but I
can't see that I would help her
any by adding "cowardice" to
all the other charges they make
against me. I feel I must stand
Iup for what believe in, and I
Ialso feel that I must go to the
school and demand that they
put an end to any heckling of
my child or any ostracism of
her.
THE COUNCILS VIEWS
Ronnie, Al and their daughter
are among the many victims of
this age of tension and hate.
/ We pride ourselves on living
i'm an age Of tolerance, but we are
mistaken in believing that we
enjoy tolerance. 1t is true that
there is widespread acceptance
of the idea of tolerance of diff
Iferences in outward behavior and
appearance or In political dis
cusSion.
But the trend in these times
is to compel conformity of opin-
ion, and many people wear their

FAMOUS FABLES
BY E. E. EDGAR
SECOND BILLING: For sol

SECOND BILLING: For some
years George Bernard Shaw car
ried on a correspondence with
Actress Ellen Terry. At one time
she was considering the publica-
ton of these letters. She asked
his permission to have them
printed. Shaw refused.
But why?" she asked. "The
letters are beautiful. I'm sure
the public will find them inter-
esting."
IF you wish to expose your
self to the public that is your
business" replied Shaw. "but l
will not play the horse to your
Lady Godiva."
ADVICE: For some years,

and he reeled off a long medical
name for it which I can't re-
member. He told me not to
worry about the length of it.
And to expect that it would keep
breaking off until the whole
thing was removed by treatment.
The doctor advises that I enter
the hospital for two days. Al
though I hate the idea. never
having been in one before. I
guess I'll have to go in. Isn't
lit possible to have the treatment
at home? Sincerely. Mrs. ]. G. D.
Answer: Your decision to enter
the hospital is a wise one. And
your doctors suggestion should
be followed.
Although we sometimes go
months without seeing a tape
worm in practice, every doctor
has had experience in trying to
rid the patient Of these nuis-
ances. People ask me where
they come from.
Beef tapeworms, which is
called Taenia Saginata, is the
most common tapeworm in
North America. 1t usually gets
to be about fifteen or twenty
feet long. Some have been re-
moved and measured up to fifty
fleet.
The pork tapeworm is a para
site that comes from infected
pork. 1t attains the length of
about six feet. Then there is the
fish tapeworm that grows to
about Is feet. AS the name
implies, spoiled fish infected with
its larvae bring on the condition.
Some people may have tape
worms without having any
symptoms at all. I remember,
years ago. seeing a man in his
20s who came in with a few feet
of a worms segments in a bottle.
He had just happened to notice
the worm the night before. He
had no symptoms whatever. He
was a strong, healthy fellow.
He was quite calm about the
whole thing. In the hospital he
was given the usual treatment
(Which 1 shall describe later
and he passed twin worms
each about 80 feet long. I have
had the opportunity to see him
over the years, and he has never
had a recurrence of this trouble.
Some people enormously believe
that once you have a worm you
will never be able to completely
rid yourself Of it.
A few years ago a mother
brought her teen-aged daughter
in because she was getting very

nervous and hard to manage.
(Many readers will say face
tiouSly that teen-agerS don't
have to harbor worms to get
that way.) Not until a few weeks
later was the cause discovered.
She had an unexplained anemia
and loss of weight. On checking
the stools the culprit was found.
Her worm was easily removed

recall a man whose only
symptom was extreme irritable
ity. His wife couldn't get over
the change in him. Ordinarily
an easy-going fellow He'd be
biting my head off for no reason
at all" Examination Of his
blood one day revealed a high
eosinophile count. This led to
suspicion of a worm; which was
confirmed by stool examination.
The reason you had better go
to the hospital for treatment,
Mrs. j. G. D. is that you will
require good nursing care. You
will need to take your medicine
exactly on time and your diet
(rather. the absence of it, is
important.
Your doctor has the choice of
many medicines to eradicate the
worm: thymol, atabrine, pump
kin seeds, chloroform, turpen-
tine, male fern and others. The
most commonly used-and the
one I have had best results with
is the oleoresin of male fern.
The procedure goes something
like this: You enter the hospital
the evening before the main
medication. You are given a
purge consisting of salts. You
have no dinner this night. On
the morning of the treatment you
remain in bed and are given a
breakfast of coffee or tea. If you
are the worrisome type your doc
tor may also prescribe a mild
sedative.
Then you receive the proper
dose of male fern. Two or three
hours after that you receive an
other dose Of salts. Every elemi-
nation Of feces is carefully ex-
amined. If the worms head is
discovered you can consider
yourself free of it.
If not, you may have to go
through this procedure again in
a few months. Sooner or later,
that worm will no longer have
the right to the name OF
parasite"
