How to
STOP KILLING
YOURSELF
Enthusiasm Aids Health
By DR.. PETER J. STEINcRoHN

I have two friends, Dick
and Mick. Dick is a hick. So
was Mick. Where's the diff
ference? Simple. Dick still
is. Mick was.
In my mind, a hick is not
a country boy. He is a per-
son philosophically wise
enough to appreciate the
world he lives in. He does
not allow himself to become
too worldly. He is not
ashamed of still having the
curiosity of a child and the
enthusiasm of youth.
On the other hand. Mick
never allows the wonders of
the world to upset his cold,
outward facade. He prides
himself on his detachment.
What has all this to do
in a medical column? Sim
ply this: Dick the hick, al
though go. has the arteries
of a man of 40; while Mick
who became sophisticated
much too early in life. looks
like a man in his mid-70s.
Moral? One way to keep
young, and your arteries soft
and elastic, is not to be
ashamed of being a hick.
Keep piling logs on the fire
of your enthusiasms.

WHAT MAKES some peo-
pie so in a hurry to lose
weight? 1t may take a per-
son six months to gain 10
pounds. When he decides to
take it off, he wants the job
done and over within days.
Som etimes he gets into
trouble because of his i'm
patience.
1 have been hearing lately
that such people have been
resorting to powerful drugs
(used in heart and kidney
disease) to remove large
amounts of water from their
system, thus losing many
pounds within hours.
Don't do it!
Besides, you don't really
lose actual fat. The weight
comes right back after you
put fluids into your system.
It has been my expert
ence that some patients
adore a back-slapping doc
tor. They like to be cheered
in this fashion. However,
many doctors recoil from
any undue familiarity.
Personally, I think an oc-
casional reassuring pat is all
right. It should not be over
done. And any backpat Is
too much if the patient is
treasured while not being
told of the real nature of his
illness.
Exercise machines? Not
for me. If I feel I need some
limbering-up I can get mine
in a walk around the block.
do I really have to wear
a hearing aid?"
HOW OFTEN doctors
hear this question! In the
last 10 years I do not re-
call having one patient say:
do really have to wear
glasses?" For the life of
me I still can't understand
the psychological ason
why some people will shy
away from a hearing aid
and gladly accept glasses.
I suppose you can charge
this UP to human nature
too: Why do some patients
have more confidence in
hard to - pronounce medi-
cines than they do in the
old standbys?
For example, there's many
a patient who would walk
out of a doctors office dis
appointed if he was told:
Take an aspirin table t
three times a day"
However, if the doctor
scrawled these words on a
prescription blank, "acetyl

tiZation of the late James Agee'S

way only because those who

for it. His script for Heritage

stage Of his life-was equally
sensitive and, it should be
added. equally unnoticed.
I hope you saw it Friday. It
was a particularly notable feat
of writing and acting, since
Heritage imposes unusual |
standards of accuracy and the
leading figure was a man whose
vigorous physical personality
traits and habits of speech
