How to keep well Burning tongue

By T.R. VAN DELLEN, M.D. A 66-year-old Floridian writes: “For about a year, the tip and underside of my tongue has burned and hurt, and is slightly red although there are no ulcers, blisters or lumps on it. Three physicians have not been able to tell me what is causing the sensation although one suggested it might be due to too much acid or a lack of vitamins. I had my teeth cleaned and a few cavities filled about a month ago. I do not smoke or drink.” From Illinois, J.T. writes: “What causes my lips and tip of my tongue to have a burning sensation? This happens only in the morning,” A woman from Yonkers, N.Y., writes: “Why does my tongue burn when I eat sugar-

coated candies, chocolates and other sweets?” A Pittsburgh correspondent has the same complaint, and she tells me that her tongue feels as though it has been scalded. If my mail is indication, burning, stinging and soreness of the tongue is very common. The remedy is simple when we know the cause, but more often than not, there is no lesion apparent, and the tongue looks normal. The tongue is subject to irritations from foods, condiments, smoking and the mechanical trauma induced by jagged teeth. Considering that the mouth contains lots of bacteria, the tongue fares amazingly well. In fact, infections of the tongue are very rare and ulcers of the tongue

the queen, planning to discard a heart if South follows low. The overall chance of success with this method of play is about 70 per cent. If you staked your all on simply a heart or club finesse, you would have little more than a 50 per cent shot at the contract. Note that it is far better to play South for the king of clubs than North. This is because you can trap South’s king regardless of how many clubs he has, while if you finessed successfully against North by overtaking the ten with the jack, you would still be unable to catch his king if he had more than three clubs. 2. Basically you hope to win four diamonds, three hearts, a spade and a club, and thus make three notrump. This may

usually heal quickly. We have all bitten our tongue and noticed that the cut was better in a day or two. The tongue often reflects our general condition. Dryness of the tongue occurs when the body is dehydrated, often after a bout of diarrhea or vomiting. The tongue becomes beefy-red or smooth when anemia and certain vitamin-dificiency states exist. It may become thickened and dry when the thyroid gland is underactive. Referred soreness occasionally stems from infected tonsils or abscessed teeth. Allergies to certain foods, medicines or toothpastes occasionally result in a swollen, burning or discolored tongue. If none of these possible causes apply to you, your

be impossible if the cards are unfavorably divided, but careful play will give you an excellent chance. The first problem arises at trick one. It is best to win the club lead lest North shift to a spade and force out your entry to dummy’s diamonds. Then come the A-K of hearts and A-Q of diamonds. If the queen loses to the king, your worries are over, as you can later enter dummy with a spade and discard your bothersome jack of diamonds on the queen of hearts to unblock the suit. If the diamond queen wins, continue with the jack, which will force out the king if the suit is divided 3-2. It is important to cash the A-K of hearts early; otherwise, the diamonds might get blocked.

problem may be the result of nervousness. The use of a tranquilizer and a high-vitamin intake will occasionally be helpful. Rinsing out the mouth twice daily with a few drops of hydrogen peroxide in warm water is frequently helpful in relieving this annoying symptom A Pound of Prevention J.C., a secretary in a busy office, writes: “Last week my boss got hepatitis. His physician wants to give all of us (over 100 people) gamma globulin shots. He says that we must take this to prevent the possibility of our contracting the disease. Do you think this is necessary? And could you answer this question quickly? Infectious hepatitis is generally transmitted only after close contact oreating and drinking from the same dishes. Only those people who were very close to your boss need take the shots. It is nonsense to immunize everyone. Sounds like an overanxious physician.

WORRY CLINIC George W. Crane, Ph.D., M.D.

Chet knew that twirling a copper wire in the air, produces an electrical current, for God made copper to do that. Same is true of the way Chet shattered the “brother" attitude Opal had held of him since 7th grade! CASE C-665: Chet J., aged 21. loved Opal but she regarded him more like a brother Meanwhile, she was physically infatuated with a wealthy playboy named Ron, who made her pulses pound and gave her butterflies in her tummy. But Opal really felt that Chet would make a happier marriage for her, except that she couldn’t shatter that asset uonate "brother” image that had grown up between them since the 7th grade. Since I agreed with Opal, I urged het to send Chet to my faculty office on our Evanston campus of Northwestern University. Chet was willing to come, lot he loved Opal dearly and realized (hat Ron had the inside track. “Dr. Crane,” he said, "I think I have been ardently in love with Opal ever since we were high sc bool juniors. “In fact, we’ve lived next door ever since we were in the 7th grade so we have been back and forth in eac h other’s homes till we seem almost like brother and sister. “But when I started dating in high school and took her to the Prom. I fell madly in love with her. “Opal is a wonderful girl, being both beautiful, charming and honest, so she admits she is fond of me, but doesn’t get that tingly, butterfly-in-lhe stomach emotion that Ron has produced ever since she first met him when we came to the university as freshmen. "So can you PLEASE show me how to shatter this ‘brother’ attitude she has for me? “!’m willing to follow any prescription you offer and to the very letlei!” “BROTHER” HALO Often this "brother” halo is based on prolonged neighborly contacts since way back in childhood.

Such free visiting back and forth between their homes, can rob an attractive boy or girl of that "novelty” romantic attitude which a stranger incites. Again, an oldei boy may disregard the pig-tailed tomboy younger sister of his male companions, looking on her as merely a freckled kid sister. When she later blossoms out as a stunning coed in late high school or college, he may still be enslaved by his earlier childhood attitude toward her. However, if your personalities thus harmonize and all the basic factors for happy marriage are 0.K., but still you regard the girl as a “sister” or the boy as a "brother,” then you must shatter that habitual attitude. So I urged Chet to take Opal to a drive-in movie, preferably of a romantic type. Then when he parked in Lover's Lane, he was to engage in complimentary chitchat, until he slipped his arm around her. "But when you draw her to you for a kiss,” I warned, “don’t make it a quickie little peck on the lips! "Instead, keep het lips imprisoned for at least 10 seconds! "For by that time, an electrical shock will occur between any two reasonably attractive peisons of the opposite sex. "The Almighty thus created human beings so that if we go through the proper motions, we'll soon experience the corresponding emotions! “For example, if you twirl a copper wire and thus cut the invisible magnetic lines of force, an electrical current instantly flows through that wire. "A similar electrical shock will happen to Opal, so test this law.” Opal was even more surprised than Chet for at the end of 5 or 6 seconds, she no longer viewed him as a “brother.” (Alway* writ* to Dr. Gan* in car* *f this newtpaper, enclosing a long stamped, addr*ss*d envelop* and 25 cent* to cover typing and printing casts when you send for on* of his booklets.)

SPECIAL. “DR. SEUSS’ THE CAT IN THE HAT.” (Repeat). Jaunty musical cartoon version of the famous children’s reader, first aired in March of 1971. The addition of music and lyrics becomes a plus for once instead of a minus, as the Dr. Seuss con artist cat entertains two kids on a rainy afternoon. The youngsters, drawn in standard fashion, mostly play audience to the vaudeviilian cat, his helpers, and an anguished goldfish who worries about what Mom will say. Even parents shouldn’t mind the cat’s gusto in this kiddies’ show. 8:00 PM SANFORD AND SON. “THE MASQUERADE PARTY.” Red Foxx thought up the idea of having Fred, Grady and Bubba, dress up in silly costumes to appear on a “Let’s Make a Deal”-type show, and here’s the result. The plot has Fred attempting to win a birthday present for son Lamont on the TV show, which he turns into a shambles, naturally. “Let’s Make a Deal” fans will be delighted. 8:00 PM CBS SPECIAL. “THE LITTLE MERMAID.” (Repeat). This fabulously vibrant animated version of Hans Christian Anderson’s tale about a young mermaid and the human prince she must love from afar, is another inspired creation of Potterton Productions, whose version of Oscar Wilde’s “The Selfish Giant” was so enchanting. The story flows from the mermaid’s undersea Palace of Shells, to the lair of the Enchantress of the Seven Seas, to the laughter and tears of the Prince’s castle. The music is ideally used to punctuate the story, and the animation, which appears to be moving portaits, is an artistic joy. Relaxing and meaningful experience for children, and

FRIDAY

also for fairytale-telling adults. 8:30 PM CBS CHICO AND THE MAN. “IF I WERE A RICH MAN.” Nobody knows how to tell Chico his girl wants out. The episode is a “How to Break the News Gently” story, in which Ed, Marilyn, Louis and Mando all lack nerve.. .a folksy half hour with the cast attemting to make the most out of a minor problem. 8:30 PM NBC HOT L BALTIMORE. “MILLIE’S BEAU.” A breezy outing - to put it mildly - about an old man’s weekly visits to the hotel, and the dialogue sizzles. Bingham, the philosopher, has wry observations on the state of the union, and conducts a unique memorial service, while Mrs. Belotti’s unseen son, Moose, runs amuck, using butter and a cantaloupe. This is an adult series you’ll either love or hate, so tune in and decide. 9:00 PM ABC. POLICE WOMAN. “NO PLACE TO HIDE.” The plot may be familiar and the action somewhat gory, but the script is well-paced and the characters continue to mesh well on tonight’s show. 10: 00 PM NBC.
