Early Mailing
VIII Assure
Xmas Delivery

Postmaster Carpenter said to-
day, early mailing of all Christ
mas cards and gifts is the biggest
single factor in getting all of the
mail delivered before Christmas.
Post Office facilities have been
expanded, extra help will be avail
able, and everything is geared up
to handle a record Christmas mail
in Sidney this year."
The entire Christmas mailing
period is a big battle against time.
Even though Christmas is about a
month away by the calendar, it's
Christmas every day at the Post
Office from now on.
The Postmaster advises, Don't
take chances on mailing poorly
wrapped packages. Use sturdy
corrugated mailing cartons, plenty
of heavy wrapping paper and
strong cord. Cartons containing
several gift packages should be
well stuffed with tissue or old
newspapers to cushion the con-
tents"
He said further, eff you have
articles of unusual size or bulk,
better check with the Post Office
before attempting to mail them.
The limits of size and weight of
packages vary, depending on
where you mail your packages
from"
Always send your Christmas
cards by First Glass mail and be
sure to include your return name
and address on each Christmas
card envelope.
Send all Christmas mail going
long distances before Decembbr
10Th. Follow UP promptiy W.T.
cards and gifts for local delivery.
Mail "Early and Often" for a
merrier Christmas!

1t was agreed that the State
Highway Department should let
a contract for the SAG miles, as
noted in the letter. If additional
monies were available after let
ting the contract, they should
grade and gravel a piece of road
at the west end of the project
which is known as Brush Coulee.
1t was Disappointing to all con-

as previously reported by the

ontological Congress in San
Francisco.
DR.. Asian had delivered
a progress report on her
work with the drug first in
troduced to the medical pub
lie in 1866. Two other dele
gates to the congress also
reported on limited expert
ments with procain solutions.
One was an American doc
tor, the other a Russian.
Neither was much impressed
by the results of his project.
While in Washington, DR..
Asian submitted to an inter-
view, answering criticism
from American doctors and
defending her claims.
One strong bit of criticism
had come from a physician
on the staff of the American
Medical Associations Bu-
reau of Investigation. After
reading a translation of the
Asian papers reportS on her
work., he had commented:
The significant fact is
that the findings appear to
be based principally on sub
jectlve reactions in patients
they felt better were
more active responded
more readily to stimuli This
is, of course, completely un-
scientific. In this connection
there are two possibly signif-
icant factors:
Il. 1t is we'll known that
patients receiving a new
treatment quite commonly
feel much better because they
think they will.

that anyone receiving novo-
cain injections in this dosage,
and frequently, would surely
experience certain degree
of euphoria and decrease in

IN summary" he said,
this material appears to be
a completely uncritical re-
view of a haphaZard treat
ment routine which has been
evaluated at little more than
a subjective level and which
has not included utilization
of controls or appropriate
laboratory studies"
To this doctor and others
who share his view, DR.. Asian

why DR.. Asian had not di-
vulged the exact formula for
her novocain preparation.
Usually the investigator
will publish his exact for
mula because it has been
found that trace ingredients
are sometimes more impor-
tant than the main ingredi-
ent."
DR.. Asian replied to this:
The formula does not be-
long to me now. 1t is under
a trademark and belongs to
the factory Gin Romania)
that produces it. They will
not disclose it."
She added that any coun-
try wishing to experiment
with her solution could i'm
port it from Romania.
In closing the interview,
Dr. Asian thanked all the
American doctors for their
criticism and their help. 1t
is necessary to have the CO.

sometimes described as the

At least that has been it's

Way back in the days of
the early Greeks, Romans

so long and pointed that the

Can the drug known as
'H3" actually slow down the
aging process, make an old
woman look and feel young
er. perhaps even prolong her
life?
"H3" is a solution con-
tanning the familiar aneS-
thetic, novocain, formulated
by a woman doctor from Ro-
mania. DR.. Ana Asian Of
Bucharest claims that of g.
900 old persons treated with
her novocain solution, 99.98
per cent have experienced a
revitalization, physical as we'll
as psychological.
The hair and skin of the
patients have improved, slack
muscles have become more
firm, the patients display
more physical and mental
energy and some persons
treated for senility even have
enjoyed a return of memory
so says DR.. Asian.
Mans eternal search for
the fountain of youth makes
her assertions, still unsup-
ported in the view of West
ern medical authorities, a
matter of considerable public
interest.
A few days ago a leading
New York newspaper printed
a wire-service dispatch from
Moscow reporting the sale
Of something it called a 'liq-
uid of YOUTH" a solution of
2 per cent novocain pat
termed after (but not iden-
tical to- DR.. Aslan's formula.
Capsules of the solution cost
go cents per prescription and.
according to the story,
they're selling like hotcakeS
to Russian women and dip
lomats' wives living in Mos

A number of articles on
the novocain (more properly
called procain) drug have
appeared in popular Ameri-
can magazines and a book
titled "H3" was published in
February of this year.
Procain solutions are now
being produced for sale by
drug firms in this country

She claims that in the
cases of badness she has
achieved 80 per cent success
with "H3" therapy.
She also showed before
and-after pictures of patients
who had recovered from skin
ailments, and Of oldsters who
appeared to have grown
younger in the two or three
years of porcain treatments.
DR.. Asian also has used
"H3" in treating arthritis.
arteriosclerosis, bronchial
asthma, angina pectoris and
other ailments associated
with old age, with varying
degrees of success, she says.
She is director of the In
stitute of Geriatrics in Buch-
Arrest.
incidentally, the Romanian
doctor, who is a professor of
medicine, has been taking
"H3" herself off and on for
the last nine years.
Sixty-three years old, she
looks not so much younger
as healthier than the aver
age women her age. Her skin
has what appears to be a
natural delicate bloom, her
eyes are bright and her hair
is an auburn brown, not dyed,
she says.
That look Of Well-being
could, of course, be simply
the result of leading a stimu-
lating life.
She is not married, so de-
votes almost all her energies
to her work.
Conviction Is Natural
The NH spokes a n,
though frankly skeptical of
the value of "H3," took a
sympathetic approach to DR..
Asian.
"She naturally is convinced
her procain is effective. In a
similar way, when any in
vestigator thinks he has
something he is strongly pro
his find. 1t would be difficult
for him to be con in the
matter"
I'VE will be following her
work" he said, adding that
while the drug as she uses
it may not prove effective,
there might be some aspect
of this that is very worth
while"
He did wonder, he said,
