moment to see a display Of
your own craftsmanship.
/ was thinking Of all this
today. when I happened to
come across q few pages of
hand-written notes. I could
not read my own writing. Like
many others In the medical
profession, mine Is an undeci-
pherable scrawl. I am sorry
for this. I hope my con-
scientiouS writing teacher Of
many years ago forgiveS
wherever she Is.
People write In, practically
every week, for a hint on
what foods ARE bad for"i
kidney stones. I tell them
that we haven't the answer.
The doctor usually tries to
find out whether the pa.
tient has passed 0 calcium
or phosphorus stone. : Then
We tell you to drink much
water and cut down on cal.
cium or phosphorus intake.
But I'm not sure Just what
helps. Whether it's better to
have the urine acid or aka
line. Whether we can really
prevent the formation Of
stones.
For we do know that the
little glands called the par
athyroids may have some-
thing to do with it. When
they don't act right, I doubt
that any diet will help much.
DROPPED 8 STOMACH?
Ordinarily. operation is not
the solution. Most often Moth
ing. needs to be done. Some.

as long as they stay here. !. !
could no more raise q high
powered rife to my sight and
shoot one Of them through

I wonder II we have the
moral right to kill wild game
merely because, as human
animals, we are more intellt-
gent than other animals and
have developed q piece Of
iron that spits death long
distances.
Hunters may argue that
this kind Of compassion goes
much too far. II we are going
to worry so much about anti
NAL life. they say, let us make
q real sensible beginning BY
outlawing wars which each
century take q toll Of hun
dreds Of thousands of human
lives.
No one can dispute that.
But I'm in favor Of Sparing
the lives Of wild game as well.
So are some other people, in.
cluding the great philosopher

bert Schweitzer, who can't
even kill q mosquito. Now, II
1t gives my critics any pleas

How to
STOP KILLING
YOURSELF
Moderation Is Best Rule
BY DR.. PETER J. sTEINcRoHN

There is a common miscon-
ception that ice water is bad
for q person who drinks it on
. hot day. I know Of no
scientific reason why this
should be true.
If you enjoy 1t, 60 right
ahead. I'd say nay If you got
stomach cramps. but people
rarely do. The same is true
Tor hot drinks. Some can't
Understand how another can
swallow scalding coffee. Yet,
I know patients who have
taken their hot drinks hot
for 10 years and nothing
happened.
AS A RULE, modernation
is better. Stay away from ex-
tremes. But always remind
yourself that what may cause
you discomfort it is unadul-
terated pleasure for the fel-
low who Is used to extremes
Of heat and cold in his food
and drink. Z
HaA
When you can improve on
mother nature, don't hesitate
to do so. I can see no moral
reason why the young girl Cor
matron). for that matter,
shouldn't have her nose
bobbed or Strengthened If the
nose she was born with gives
her the shivers whenever she
looks In the mirror.
.
That goes for men. too. I
recall q professional friend
who told me that life really
began at 40 for him on the day
he had his nose Strengthened.
It transformed him from q
shy. mediocre individual into
a brilliant conversationalist
and successful trial lawyer.
SOME PERSONS sprinkle
salt on their food with aban-
don. Every time they take hold
ola salt shaker they stir up a
minor snowstorm. I have
always had the feeling that
too much salt is bad even
though you are healthy. and
haven't been advised to re-
strict sodium because of high
blood pressure or heart
disease.
, When I was in the early
grades in public school, I. like
the other kids, used to spend
hours practicing penmanship.
Every II" had to be dotted
just 50; every 1t" carefully
crossed. Neatness and legi-
bility always brought q pat
on the head from our proud
teacher.
For weeks, samples Of hand
writing would hang on the
blackboard until they gath
