Dear DR. Steincrohn: / have

ment until I heard that these
so-called atomic cocktails are
liable to hurt any children I
may have. Is this true? I ex-
Ipect to be married this year.
Miss D. L."
Answer: This is a false belief.
According to a recent report by
DR.. c. H. Jaimet of Hamilton
Iat the 89th meeting of the Ca
madam Medical Association, ra-
dioactive iodine does not affect
the children born to parents
who have had the treatment.
He cited 1000 cases as proof.
Dear DR.. Steincrohn: am
a 55-year-old salesman and have
been healthy all my life. Twice
the past week I passed blood in
my urine. There was no pain.
And / have had no trouble now
for three days. Shall I let 1t
go or have it investigated? SIN
lcerely."
Answer: Most patients I have
seen with urinary bleeding pre-
fer to "let it CO." "Why borrow
trouble now?" they say. "The
bleeding has stopped"
| Nevertheless, the wise person
does not procrastinate. Bleeding
is unnatural and deserves i'm
mediate investigation. Chances
are it will return-and by then,
valuable time will have been lost.
In about Is per cent Of cases
the bleeding may be due to an
enlarge prostate. Often the cause
is a growth in the bladder or
kidney. silent" (painless) stone
in the kidney, ureter or bladder
may be the cause. There may be
a small focus of tuberculosis pro-
ducing it. Sometimes blood con-
dition is at the root of it.
/ Whatever the cause, the sooner
you discover it the better for you.
I suggest you tell your doctor
about it and he will undoubtedly
send you to a urologist for a
cystoscopic examination. Time is
of the essence.

Not All Skull Fractures Serious
By DR.. PETER ] STEINcROHN

Dear DR.. Steincrohn: My little
3-year-old daughter was hit in
the head by a swing and suffered
"a fractured skull about three
months ago. The doctor said it
was a minor fracture and she
recovered well.
"She seems to be acting
normally. don't let her out of
my sight. I can't help worrying
If she will have trouble when she
Iget older. She says her head is
still sore and I don't know what
to think. How long does it take a
fracture of the skull to heal?
please answer this soon as it
will take a lot of worry from my
mind. as I love her dearly. Mrs.

THE COUNCILS VIEW
Matthew does appear TO be
somewhat vague about the pur-
pose Of this group. His fathers
suspicion that he is withholding
something may be true, but IL
is also possible that the boys
themselves really do not know
what they intend to do. They
are possessed by an urge TO band
together and somehow dis
tinguish themselves through a
uniform style Of dress and Joint
activities.
This Is q natural urge In
adolescents and is not in itself
harmful. What could be harm
ful. however. is the lack OF
definite purpose in this group.
Meetings and a general plan 10

don't add UP to quite enough.
Also. the tough talk about
being a jerk TO let my father get
away with that kind OF stuff is
not a very healthy sign.

eided against. Mr.. p. d. should

QUESTION: At a dinner party,
the late H. L. Mencken addressed
a remark to the man next to

a torrent Of language for almost
an hour.
When the meal was over at

chair and fled to another room.
What was he telling you with
SUCH animation?" inquired his
host. Hes a confirmed hypo-
chondriac, you know"

loved people. He made friends
with everybody who would say
hello to him. He was retired at
65 and grew miserable sitting at
home. A county political leader,
who lived in his section of town
and who was in the construction
business, heard about him. He
figured such a friendly man had
value. He suggested to a build
ing supply house with which he
did business that it go offer the
man a job as some kind of con-
sultant.
If retirement is just ahead of
you, or if it has already come,

some new friends. People can
feel mighty proud over doing YOU
a favor, if they know you.
