with the end Of November
the Christmas catalogues began
to arrive. Mr.. and Mrs. Baxter
kept them on the table be-
tween their beds. They made
excellent goodnight reading.
Here's one'' said Mr.. Bax-
ter. ITS an escort alarm"
why do you want TO alarm

Baxter. who was reading q cat

"1t's getting harder and hard

Mr.. Baxter read all cata-

marking an item. for what pur-

After skimming through half
a dozen Mrs. Baxter resumed
her book.

In spite Of their agreement

Baxter would send UP q casual

lost his life in an accident be-
cause Of his drunkenness, he
gave up drinking entirely but
became q kind Of religious
fanatic and talked nothing else
day and night. He even gave
up his job to work for this re-
ligious organization. Now he
claims that this organization
hasn't given him credit, for his
work for them. and he has
started to drink again.

depend upon them. The chill
dren miss their father. even
though he isn't often very nice
to them. I guess I'll Just have
to sweat II out.
THE COUNCILS VIEW
Since Olga is willing TO
sweat It out" and suffer for
the sake OF keeping her family
together. she should try a little
harder and seek some more
satisfactory way Of life.
Oiga's readiness to accept
misery and suffering without
a fight sounds a little too much
like her husbands own sub
mission 10 his drinking habit.
She may resent this compar-
ison. but she should realize
that. like her husband. she
tends to give in TO the strongest
pressures Of the moment.
She may claim that she at
least faces reality and does not
try 70 escape into a world of
fantasy. She should recognize,
however. that human beings
can create their own reality.
Her husband. aided by alcohol,
creates q pleasant world for
himself-if not for others. Olga,
aided by that same alcohol Of
her husbands. creates "one
long misery"
We don't deny that the wife
Iof an alcoholic travels one OF
the worlds roughest roads. but
with courage and initiative II
should be possible to find a
little pleasure along even that
rocky road.
Olga should discuss with her
clergyman and with a family
counseling service the whole
problem Of how she can best
help her husband. children and
herself toward a better life.

a SECRET or SUCCESS
Evening star., 1957-12-05

for most people facing old age
thus is to find for themselves
places in society in which they
can age with activity and salts
faction and TO continue to be
active up to as near the end
as possible. Aging must be
eamy to the end to be very
good.
Second. aging has become a
complicated and challenging
thing to face personally.
To meet the challenge sue
cessfully is somewhat like rid
ing a bicycle--to stop is to 60
down.
And people must guard
against comparing and choos-
ing between old age and youth.
The choice. really. is between
aging and dying. It's also a
mistake TO regard aging
primarily as a time of resting.
"Old age for rest" is only a
half truth at best. The efforts
and plans Of life had better
go on.
Third. among all peoples a
point is reached in aging
where any further usefulness
appears to be over and the
aged person is regarded as a
living liability.
Thus. whether life can be
good to the last drop, really
depends on when and how we
drop.

Dear DR.. Steincrohn: VIII
yOn write q column about
bad breath? And please don't
advise me 10 90 10 a dentist
or . physician. Neither have
done me any good. They
simply ignore that complaint
and never have offered any
suggestions.
IavOid people on the street,
In stores. etc. because I'm
certain my breath is offensive.
I can't chew gum all the
time. I use dental floss and
clean my teeth morning and
afternoon. I also use mouth
washes. etc. but stiIl I'm
sure I have bad breath.
Is there something ] can
buy that ] can use before
going out that will let me
know II my breath really Is
offensive? So I can steer
clear Of people? read Of
something for this purpose
but can't recall what Is Il
or where II can be purchased.
l have such q bad taste in
my mouth and feel as though
some part Of my nose IL re-
sponsible although ] seldom
have colds and sinus trouble.
But l do have . feeling at
times and a taste that some
thing Is there causing me
trouble. I'm even afraid TO
laugh at q movie because I
have smelled other bad
breaths that way, and I don't
want anyone 10 say that Of
me.
Even my eye doctor has
bad breath. II he can't over
come IL perhaps he doesn't
kn0w!l how can ] hope to?
Please, DIR. Steincrohn, help
me. Don't laugh at this. I
avoid even my family-I
mean I keep at a good dis
tance while talking. I'D rather
not sign my name. b. b.
Most physicians and den-
fists that / know do not zig
more" the patients complaint
Of bad breath. In the first
place. It is a common COM
plant. Secondly. We know that
It must be Of great concern to
the patient.
Unfortunately, although the
diagnosis Of bad breath" Is
easy. finding Its cause is not
always so. Your friends may
hesitate ito tell you" and risk
hurting your feelings; but ]
believe most doctors who are
interested In your welfare will
not hesitate TO do so.
Many's the patient who has
come to me for some other
complaint who walked out OF
my office knowing for the first
time that, he had bad breath.
he was grateful for the
truth.
I think everybody should
know. At least 1t win make
for more comfort all around.
People who know" they have
bad breath will guard" against
in such a way that the
listener gets a full. direct blast
Of offensive odor.
Suppose you have It. What
70 do? AS Mr.. B. B. has done,
you should see a good ply
sician and dentist. I am sur
prised they have ignored his
complaint and have not Of
fered any suggestions. OF
course. it is possible that Mr..
B. B. has no bad breath. !
have known many patients who
so insisted: yet their breath
was as sweet as q baby's.
Somehow they had become VIC
tins Of an obseSSion that they
"smelled bad" Often such was
a stubborn ailment and nothing
the doctor would say or dc
could change their minds. Some
became recluses and rarely saw
other people.
II. however. the bad breath
is unmistakable. I think you
should also have a complete
examination Of your sinuses
by a good nose and throat
specialist. Some patients have
asked me about the value OF
special toothpastes. According
