Buritis Treated By X-Ray

By Harman N. Bundesen, M. 0. ANYONE Who knows the uae of oil In an automobile engine <»n readily understand the function of the bursa* or fluid filled sacs, which are located around the Joints of the hody. The method is different in each case, but the purpose Is the same, to present friction. For Instance, In many cases, a tendon which connects a muscle with a bone will pan* over a bursa and thus be protected from the e( facts of constant rubbing against the hard material of the bone Like every other part of the body the bursas are subject to disease or disorder. tn recent years. It has been noted that many persons suffer from a condition in which depos its of calcium or lime salts occur In the bursa and in the tendon. This condition Is known as calcifyIng bursitis. The most frequent location of thia condition seems to he around the shoulder joint in what L known as the subacrom Jal buna. The Symptoms of this condition consist of pain In the shoulder, often passing Into the forearm sad the hand. There may be numb neat of the upper part of the arm. inability to make certain move meats, especially placing the bands In the hip pocket*. lifting an object or combing the hair. The pain may occur at night and awaken the patient, and force him to find a more comfortable position. The disorder, in some Instances, may last over a period of years. Now and then, recovery occurs with or without treatment after a period of several months. And here is where the X-ray comes Into use again. When an X-ray is taken, the deposit of lime salts la the leudon Is shown. Sometimes inflammation of the

She is a happy, social being, very grateful for the memory of those first seeing years. She attributes her success to an “inner vision" that she says all "sighted" people have. too. and to the fact that she always has tried “to adapt to life's emergencies ” Her courage, and above all. her cheerfulness make the troubles of other people seem as naught.

bursa may occur without any lime salt deposits. In order to make a diagnosis in such caiw-H. according to ltrs. Isaac W. Kaplan and Benjamin L. Hawkins of the Medical Corps of the United States Army, an injection of a local anesthetic may Im* made into the barns. If this causes all the symptom* to clear up. it is probable that th'* trouble Is due to buritis, since sinh treatment would not relieve other disorders. The treatment which they ad vise for this condition is known as Infillration The needle on a syringe is liiM-rted over the tender spot In the shoulder. X-rays are then taken with the needle in place to make sure the point of it Is near the calcium deposits. Then, a warm saH solution Is slowly Injected around the deposit In the brusa. Al the same time, numtr ous punctures are made into th*' bursa. According Io these physicians. If the treatment Is carried out correctly, almost Immediate relief la obtained However, for the next 21 hours there may be some increase In the symptoms. Then again, the pain begins to dlsapitear and in about four days has vanished During the period of treatment, the patient Is encouraged to get under a warm shower and. as the moist heat renders movement easier, to further limber up the shoulder by mild exercise. Where a shower is tint available, much the name result can be obtained by application of warm, moist packs for a lime preceding Um exercise. If the deposits of calcium salts have not begun to disappear with in four to six weeks, the treatment may be repeated a second time. This usually produces a complete cure. •

• CHAPTER THIRTEEN THE MAN wit* the bifocals coughed loudly, as though he hoped to drown out the voices. He gave Corbett a sidelong, searching look. “The fortunes of war," be eaid, framing his mouth with his band. **l mean dollars and cento.” He closed his book, tucked it into his coat pocket, turned around all the way. "Don't, I beg you,” ho said soberly, "judge all of America by what you see and hear on thia train." He was speaking softly, but in a clear, even voice that carried no further than Corbett "Not all of this country has been on the joy-ride. Don’t let what you hear, what you see, make you bitter. Some peoplemost people, I like to think—have known or have tried to know what was happening." He waited for Corbett to comment but when Corbett didn't he coughed again, looked down at his shoes, said: "It's funny, 1 find myself apologizing for what I'm part of myself. Perhaps that’s why 1 am.” He paused again until Corbett had lighted a fresh cigaret had inhaled once or twice. Then he said: "You'll forgive me if I seem a bit well emotional. I'm usually not But seeing you and that lad. Two heroes. That boy was wounded in action, you know. Malaria, too. Won’t discuss .it, of course.” “You don’t" Corbett muttered. The man seemed encouraged by the fact that he’d made a remark. He hitched up in his chair, as if sitting straighter could bring him closer to Corbett "Naturally not It’s impossible to get things across to people who have never experienced them. You can’t know how pain feels until you've felt pain. Am I right? You see, I know a little. I was in the other. The first. .. . I'm a doctor. My name is Peck.”

Corbett «ald: “Corbett,” and thought how oddly you traded names on a train. You talked about anything under the sun, the most Intimate or the most casual things, til! you got to a point where you couldn’t go on without names. Dr. Peck said: “Glad to know you, lieutenant," and then "Going MMaT” "Three weeks' leave,” "And after that?” "Back to Miami.” "Lucky boy. To ten you the truth ”—Dr. peck's smite was diffident—"while 1 was dowo in Miami, when 1 saw all thorn boys ~ “1 wish people wouldn’t say boys.” The man blinked. "I stand corrected. Rightly so, str.

But 1 couldn't For the first time to my life I felt temgtretied, inadequate. Awed, fiimply awed. When I looked at their rib-bone-that’a Um D. F. C, to it not?” Corbett nodded. He gripped hto oigaret firmly between thumb and finger. "I thought so," The man bobbed his head, self-approving, before he went on: "It was the sort of expvrtence a patient of mine once had tn a somewhat—oh, quite dif-ferent-situation. You*u q get Um

H. turned at last completely away from th. woman with the V and the Hiles. •H. was reporting, covering, they call it, I think, a sensational murder trial in New fork. The Snyder-Gray case, a conet salesman and a stupid blende housewife, You remember, perhaps?* Os course h. remembered. That eaw was a legend. American crime passional. He said: *1 do.” *1 trust you’ll forgive the analogy- From th. sublime to the ridiculous, almost." Dr. Peck cleared his throat. “But homicide IS one of the facts of our national life. WeR, this was a sordid affair. They bludgeoned her husband to death for Insurance, with some household Implement* He scratched th. short hair at Ms temple. *1 can’t quite remember.” “Sash weight," Corbett said.

Dr. Peck chortled. "So you do remembert What an impression Individual murder makes on our public! Why, just a few months ago some young chap in New York killed his wife. It seemed to me every person 1 met was discussing that Forgot the war. One killing, one killer, to something we gr&sp. Down on our level.” He hitched up the knees of his trousers. "Let me get to my point. My patient was a first-rate reporter, and so his colleagues chose him to ride with the condemned murderess up to the death bouse. Only one newspaperman could go on that journey. They selected him. When he got out of the car at Sing Sing, they crowded around him, and asked: 'Well, what did she say?* 'She didn't say anything.* 'What did you ask ber?* *1 didn't ask anything.’ *You didn't ask ANYTHING?’” He lifted hto eyebrows to mirror the astonishment of the men he was quoting. • 'You rode with that woman and didn’t ask her one single question!’ ’I couldn’t,’ my patient said. ’How could I? You just don't ask questions of people in heli.’"

His eyes were on Corbett, to see whether he'd gotten the point. "It hit me that way, that wme way. I desperately wanted to talk to those boys—those men—with the ribbons. To ask all sort of questions. J couldn't I couldn’t intrude. Do you know what I mean? Can you ask them about war? Bay: ‘Excuse me, air, did you enjoy that mess over there?’ And to talk about anything else seemed a cruel Impertinence.” Corbett dropped hto cigaret into ths bowL He knew that this man had deliberately chosen this roundabout way of revealing how deeply he felt, using loquacity, selfinterruptiona, to keep hero-wor-ship from sounding too maudlin. Yet, Im was, to away, another way, glad Peck had taken the detour of the old murder case. It was one of Um things that made you feel you were really back home, Uks the gunner’e mate at the depot ramemberlng the Good Humor man. "I think.’’ be said finally, "they'd have been rather glad if you talked to them. About practically anything American. BasebaU. Politicians. Or even murder. They like to feel they haven’t lost touch.” "I wonder.” Dr. Feck's face was grave and oatarnal as be shock
