Three Ways To Treat Ganglia

By Herman N. Bundtsen, M. 0. PEOPLE an- sometimes stir prised and worried at the rather sudden formation of a round, soft, movable lump under the akin on the wrist or hack of the hand Later they may recall having received a sharp blow in the general area of the swelling. Whether they do or not. injury of one kind or another la probably the causu ut tne lunip. Such a swelling Is celled a gang lion. It la a collection of hick, gelatinous material euclowd in a membrane And connected with a Joint or with the sheath aurnni.iding the tendons which coMec* muscles to the bones. Not Dangerous A ganglion is io no sense dan gerous and is seldom paint al though at time it may become mo tense that it appears hard to the touch. In many cases. It will disappear without treatment. Three swelling or ganglia has they are called when morn than one Is present may. however, develop not paly on the hands and wrists hot also on tljc fee* and ankles and then them is a possibility tit trouble due to pressure of the shoe. Three or four different met nods for treating ganglia hav« been suggested. One method which has ‘mn commonly seed to to pul pre* sure on the swelling tor several minutes until it rupture* or breaks open and then to put a tight band-

The young student who admitted his guilt on a score or more of crimes Including three ' murders hud three times attempt i ed suicide and will probably finish the job at bis first opportunity. So ends one of the worst stories I <d the Windy City’s crime history. — o —o — Jokes about the weatherman's forecasts soon will be as obsolete as ox carts. Jet-propelled planes * will penetrate the slalosphere SO miles or so. and return to earth with automatic meteorological re-j, hording*. From these, weather ‘ 'pronouncements will be deduced. . as factual and dependable as ad i vert Isernon tx about attractions at 1 the cornel movie house. —-o -o Congressman May is ready to 1 testify before the senate investi- ( gating committee and has so noli- t fied them. He is aide Io sit up a port of tach day after a severe | heart attack which has kept him ( bedfast some time He has asked t them to hold the txamlnation at his home or to wait until his physician believes he Is able to , make the trip to Washington.

The brutal attack and the pressure placed on public officials should bring the battle- to a bead. o o—The state fair seems to have done pretty well so far as attendance is concerned with all previous records smashed Up to WedI m sday night the total to pass I through the gates was 30,999 more than the entire eight days of 1941, last fair held There will no doubt Im- a large profit to add to the treasury which added to the- nearly half million dollars paid by Uncle Sam for use of the grounds and buildings during the war, will give the director* a comfortable sum with which to improve the grounds, add to the grandstands and build a new structure or two which they i plan. And those who visited tho exposition declare it was a really great show.

age over It for a few dayj- This method is simple, not dangerous and cause no scar formation. However, according to Dr. filchard W. Dodyle of the I'niversity of Liverpool, this treatment can hometimeH be very painful. If the pressure fails to rupture the ganglion, the patient often lo**-* ermfidenco and will rarely return for repetition of the procedure. Second Method A second method consists of Introducing an instrument called a tenotome through the skin into the side of the ganglion, and cutting the capsule or outer coat of the ganglion. Then pressure is put on it to spread the substance in the ganglion through the surrounding tissues. Still another method consists of passing two or three strands of sterile silkworm gut through the ganglion, using a needle to pierce It and again putting pressure ovsr the swelling so ibat the substance in the ganglion empties out of it. Ail of these methods of treatment would seem to work because they seem to set up some irritation in the ganglion which leads to a cure. In general, it would Bppear that the method of treatment most often used in an operation for removal of the entire gangliou. Os course, there is the disadvantage that ft leaves a scar. but »heu the operation is properly carried oat there is no danger of recurrence.

CHATTER THIRTY-SIX OUT ON the street Mary Patten bailed a cruising taxi. In it, she eat ! nack in the aeat with a long-drawn oreath of relief She had not known how much ahe had dreaded thia mission until now when ahe could meaaurc it by its success. She enjoyed a small contempt for Benning. for having made it ao easy for her. for hie flattery, hie islands! He would diacharge Trent—ahe had put that point over very definitely! And without a job Trent waa not likely to try to persuade Charie to go back to him. Still, that wasn't certain . . ~ "I must eend her away!” On one of the Panama cruises "Go with her!” She went to James Muir's office before ahe went to her own. He did not wait for her to close the door before he snapped out, the muscles of hia face working under the thin skin, "How’d it go?" •Perfectly." He sat back In his chair, limp with relief. ‘Tell me what you said —what he said." She told him. ‘ And you're certain Bennings going to hush those atoriea up ?" "I think I can aay it Is certain he will," said Mary Patten confidently. "Well, I’ve never found you wrong yet!" James Muir took out a handkerchief and mopped hia forehead. "Now that's settled HI forget it. D*you know what I did thia afternoon ? Called Williams in and had him draw up a new will _ for me." He saw Mary Patten's startled look and gave a bark of a laugh. "Oh, I'm a long way from dying, but you never can tell* .. . This new will fixes you—l've left to you fifty thousand dollars' worth of stock in the company —that's enough to give you control.” Mary Patten opened her lips but did not speak. She whs shaken by a conflict of feeling. She was touched—it was not his way, she well know, to take any step that involved money without long deliberation, and that he had done so today testified to his trust in her, his affection, most of all his gratitude. But in that gratitude she saw him stripped of every quality ahe had admired In him. She felt, too, a sinking of her heart. That he had made her a beneficiary in a new will gave the marriage she had suggested a definiteness she had refused to entirely face. She knew now that in some part of her ahe had been clinging to the hope that she need not go through with it. » He swung his chair forward, ao that hia knees touched hen, patted her hand., >, < i”Vou’U be a rich woman, Mary, even should I die before we’re married. That's your reward for all you've done for ma How does that strike you?” "Very well.” Though Mary Fatten did ant know she aaid It. She w M struggling with a violent revutew.

He did not notice it. He leaned I toward her. "What do you aay we pull off the ceremony in about three i weeks? That'll give me time to i crowd that outfit that's looking at < my house. We could go to some I minister, keep it without any fuss, i couldn't we?” Mary Patten dragged her fingers i apart. "Yes, I'd —rather have it that way " She got to her feet. I "James." she’ paused to control a shaking in her voice. "... before we—marry, I'd like to take three ' or four weeks' vacation. These last I months here have been rather strenuous, with the consolidation' He got up from ha chair. "Think you ought to rest up. eh?" His alight laugh and a new glint in his eyes were suggestive. "Well, maybe you should. You arrange It. But, mind. I don’t want to wait too long!” He laughed again, a thin cackle of sound, pulled her to him and kissed her on the mouth. "That's for practice! Not so bad. at that!" Her only feeling was a cold numbness. e e e "Charie,” called Mary Patten the instant she walked into her house Charie answered from the hall above. She ran down the stairs, threw her arms around her mother. "I thought you'd never come!" To Mary Patten, it was the little Charie, rushing into her arms on her homecoming, saying that. She held her clone, ax she used to. Then, remembering, she released her to i search her face. "Has it been a long day, dari ling?” Thinking, an ahe asked it, "She hasn't been crying! Oilie must have distracted her!" i "No. not awfully—l slept late, i And Ollie stopped in. He said he brought you something. ...” I Charie looked around the square r hall. "I don’t know what or where i he put it. He had to drive out in • the country to see a horse and I t went with him. . . ." "That was nice. It must have > been cooler, driving . . . Come up , with me while 1 change. 1 must • have a shower, too.” r Mary Patter, would not admit I even to henelf why she wanted to i, feel her body washed clean. . . . 1 In her mother's room, Charie sat r down on the foot of the bed. her - legs curled under her. her shoulders - hunched. Though there were no r signs of tears. Mary Patten saw the e misery in her eyes. t But she asked lightly, as she took off her blouse, "Did Ollie buy the o horse ?" I “No. I guess he changed his mind about really wanting it. He only ’, half looked at it and then we went - away. Ollie made me drive the car. II It's a new one—a Cadillac.” t Charie wore the dross ahe had had on the evening before when ■- ahe came from Peach Place and Its e crumpled look heightened the forloraneas of her hunched figure e Mary Patten asked, "Did Olhe aay how hxs finals cams out—or
