Dear Abby Customs dictate eating habits

DEAR ABBY: Recently my wife and I toured England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland, and we noticed a strange habit in all these countries that puzzled and disturbed us. While eating, they held their forks upside down as compared to the way we Americans hold ours. I tried to explain to them that the fork is curved so as to facilitate the lifting of the food to the mouth. They “rake” their food onto the fork with their knife. (And you should see how they eat their peas!) Also, after cutting meat, they do not set the knife down and change the fork from the left hand to the right; they eat left-handed, which looks rather awkward. When I mentioned this to an Englishman, he laughed and said, “We are one up on you; switching the fork from the left hand to the right hand is wasted motion.” Abby, please inform us as to where they acquired these strange eating habits. THE WILBURS IN BELFAIR, WASH. DEAR WILBURS: Their habits evolved from custom. Don’t complain; the English have come a long way from the days when King Henry VIII ignored the utensils, ate with his hands and tossed the bones over his shoulder! * * * DEAR ABBY: I take exception to your response to the person who didn’t want to state her religion on the admittance form when she entered the hospital. You said she didn’t have to. I refused to disclose my “marital status” on a similar form when I was scheduled for a goiter X-ray, and I was informed that unless I completed the form there would be no X-ray! The argument that my marital status had nothing to do with my goiter fell on deaf ears to those in charge. NAMELESS IN PENNSYLVANIA DEAR NAMELESS: You were right—your marital status had nothing to do with your goiter,

but you knuckled under because you were intimidated by “those in charge.” Your hospital may have been the exception; the only information required for an X-ray is: name, address, date of birth and who is going to pay for it. * * * DEAR ABBY: A Chicago reader wanted to know what happened to the grocer, pharmacist, milkman, etc. who used to give her mother such beautiful calendars for Christmas, she had a hard time deciding which one to hang in her kitchen. I can tell her. They have been put out of business by the giant chain stores because so many people shop only where they get the lowest price. I can’t blame anyone for wanting to get the best deal possible, but if you want service, search out the small locally owned business, where the owner works shoulder to shoulder with his or her employees. You may have to pay a little more than the discount store charges, but remember the old saying, “You get what you pay for.” PAUL EICHHORN, DENVER DEAR PAUL: Right on! * * * (Getting married?

Others’ cigarette smoke threatens all, EPA says

WASHINGTON (AP) - People who complain about smokers’ cigarettes aren’t being finicky, they are rebelling against a potentially deadly health hazard, says a government health-safety official. Cigarette smoke can be lifethreatening, even if it’s somebody else puffing, the official said Wednesday, arguing that tough restraints on “passive smoke” could save thousands of people from dying of lung cancer or other diseases. “The non-smokers’ rights movement has been portrayed by tobacco interests as an assemblage of finicky busybodies intent on imposing their values on smokers,” said John C. Topping Jr., staff director of the Environmental Protection Agency’s Office of Air and Radiation. “In the past year, the passive smoking issue has taken on new dimensions as evidence has mounted

that involuntary exposure to tobacco smoke may be one of the leading environmental sources of death,” he said. Topping, who made his comments at a National Academy of Sciences public hearing, got support from some scientists at the meeting but also got strong disagreement from others. Professor S. James Kilpatrick of the department of biostatistics of the Medical College of Virginia stated flatly, “The current epidemiological literature consists of seriously flawed studies that have, by their very nature, been unable to establish any causal relationships.” Topping said the EPA was not proposing cigarette-smoke regulations. But he also said current research linking passive smoke to disease, though fragmentary, “seems sufficient to warrant strong steps” to reduce exposure.
