Guarding Against Ulcer s

By Herman N. Bundesen, M. 0. ULCER of the stomach or the flrat part of the Intestine is a condition which seems to run In certain families. The individuals in these families are nervous, thin and highstrung. Ulcer causes attacks of pain in the abdomen which come on from one to three hours after m«*ls and are relieved, usually, by the taking of food or some alkaline substance such as baking soda. The exact cause of stomach ulcer Is not known but many things Which help to produce it are recognised. According to hr Asher Winkoistein of New York, if persona in those families in which ulcers occur were made aware of these things, much could be done to prevent ulcers. Bad American Habits He thinks that the eating habits of the American people in general need improvement. The excessive use of stimulating beverages, spleen, charged water, fried foods and large amounts of fat, all may load to increased secretion of m idBy the stomach and spasm of the stomach muscle which, in turn, tend to cause stomach inflammation. Alcoholic beverage* and tobacco also may be factors In producing ulcers or in causing their recurrence. According to Dr. Wiskeislcin, the things which cause reeufrenco v t bicurs iu the order vl their importance are; dietetic wrens, al-

0 O Governor Gates is the new Republican national committeeman ' from Indiana. It's the first time I sn Indiana chief esecutlvo has held such a position and those I who know politico believe It Is 1 a part of his planned efforts to become the 194 S nominee for vicel president. The election shows that be is the "boss" of the G. O. P. in Indiana and is taking no chances on losing that prestige. , ■■—'O'- O ' • I State Auditor Burch seems to ! be a lone wolf in politics this year. He favors the direct primary for senators and governor and is touring the state. He came here without notice and went on to Bluffton. In neither place was he given a reception by party leaders , His accordfan band played a few i tunes and he shook hands with a few passers-by and moved on. It's rather strange to the average voter. o o_ — If you are a student of economics you surely have noticed a recession trend the past month. How I serious it will l>t» remains to be seen and depends much on how cooperative the public is in restoring good times. The stock mar ket has declined steadily and business generally is feeling the | change. Those who are wise will , couservo their resources, work a little harder and live withlu their incomes o u Plan to hear M. Clifford Townsend when he speaks here the evening of the 23rd. The former I ( governor io now tne ixunocratlc nominee for United States senator. He is au excellent speaker, i knows thu situation and has ideas I of how we can best emerge from j ■ our present economic difficulties , A farmer, school teacher, capable . public servant, he is qualified to serve you. No man tn Indiana is closer to the people or knows their needs better. Honest and experienced, he will serve you well. o o— —— r The trend of the times is toward the one-man farm. Wartime . labor shortage have spurred on /farm machinery manufactures to the development of new equipI ment which will become available t next year according to the Wall Street Journal. Hayloaders afe designed so that one man can do f in an hour three times the work formerly done by two men in the , same time. A corresponding aav- , lag of labor is accomplished by . a one-man hay-baler, a mechanical cotton-picker, and machinra to hari vest corn and potatoes. A smaller.

It is also known i that ulcers tend to occur most I often during the spring and fall. After emotional Upsets 1 The importance of emotional ’ causes, such as a sudden death or • economic strain, is well recogr nixed, for this reason, after such • an emotional upset. It has been advised that strict ulcer treatment ' be started whether or not the " symptoms of ulcer have occurred This Includes giving feedings every hour and alkaline substances i at night. It la also advised that the , normal tension of the patient's life I be relieved by frequent weekend trips and vacations every few mouths. . The diagnosis of ulcer is not I difficult in most cases. The sympe toms are usually different from those which occur tn other disori dero affecting the abdomen. Furr thermore. the diagnosis may be . checked with the X-ray and the j use of a gastowope an instrument made up of a tube with . lights, which luakos it possible for . tlic physician to look directly into . the stomach. r Once the diagnosis of ulcer Is made, treatment should bo started immediately to relieve it and, , after the uteor has healed, all ot , tlju preventive iuuummvs uutlumd . above should bo employed. g , ... «e • —- — imsgi ads ■*•••-dlb *
