Some Causes of Backache
By Herman N. Bundesen, M D THERE are at least 5o diffrr<-n» causes of pain in the lower part of j the back, maybe more. Thue, the patient who goes to the doctor complaining of hackache cannot expect a quick and definite answer as tn the cause of hi* trouble It it reassuring to know, however, that In about SO out ol 100 (patients the condition causing the backache is not serious. In the other |0 percent the backache may he a sign of some major ailment and the condition should be carefully studied Among the more common causes of backache are inflammation of the muscles of the lower pert of the back or of certain of the joints of the spine It may also be pro-j duced by sacroiliac strain The > sacroiliac joint Is located between the tower part of the spine and the hip bancs Many cases of backache are not due to trouble with the back or spine Itself but to disorders within the sl.domro Kidney disorders are sometimes responsible for back pain hut not as often as many people think inflammation of the tube* or ovaries In women, on tha I other hand are more often re- i sponsible for backache than is < geaerilly realised < la cases ct intiammstion of ths I tissues rest and the eppi teat ion of beat sod massage may be an that j
And where is there a woman who' isn't Interested in a Lilly Ixache? Officially, Memorial Day falls on Sunday this year, but public ole servance will be carried over to' Monday. In this state, the latter day will be observed as a legal holiday The veterans organizations will present a program at the Peace Monument and appro-' priate memorial services will beheld at the graves of honored war dead in the two cemeteries * —o Decatur is growing in import- - ahce as a shopping center. The retail section is exptuiding and Imai stores are enlarging the , place of business, while others are I locating here. Reliable estimates . place the potential shopping population at more than and business is brisk, to say the least Our merchants and vlerks are friendly and the services rendered by the stores must be appreciated, in view of the heavier demand on them. All highways lead to Decatur and in that respect the roads should be kept in first class shape so that shoppers can drive easily to the county seat. Then, parking pace should lie available within the city limits. o—o Dr. Melvin Calvin, professor of chemistry at the I'nlversity of California, is less worried than haustion of the natural stores of oil and coal. He thinks they can be grown. He says forms of fresh water and salt water algae, including such plaids as seaweed, sea moss and pond Scum, can be made to yield fat which can be converted into the hydrocarbons which are the source of energy derived from coal and oil. He also says it is commercially feasible. It may lead to a new kind of farming Q O Congress will no doubt hear from wage earners who pay Social Security premiums for its arbitrary action in slicing the appropriation for operation of the agency, to a point that it will cripple its services Millions of persons have .paid-in billons of dollars toward retirement pensions and no one wants the department to bog down. The offort to sabotage the nation’s Social Se< urlty program is an insult to every American worker and employer. The government has the money deducted from payrolls and funds must be provided to keep the agency going, so that win ii the indivldu il »s ready to retire. I'nc-le Sam will be there with the check. The action of Congiess in its latest political maneuver, destroys confidence in government. when there is tu> reason for such lack of faith in this great country. In contrast, none <rf the big insurance companies would ' ever let their policy owners get I that impression.
are required Sometimes a special brace may be needed to give supI port to the- muscles of the back. Occasionally tba backache may be due to a disorder of the feet. This is not unusual, since foot strain will also lead to some strain on the back muscle. Hence, the wearing of special shoes may be required It may be necessary to change the way of sittlnk. walking, or standing to order to get relief. People who have repealed back ache or backache which lasts for a long time should, of course, consult a physician tor thorough study. X rays of the spine sometimes help io disc Uwe the location of the trouble. Remember, however, that it to not always easy to find the cause fit may require several weeks of examination on the pert of the physician before he can put his finger on the responsible disorder, but once It is found, to moat instances. the trouble can fee cons pletely relieved.

He had not realized how cold and wet he was. Or was it the realization that hie way waa to prove harder than he had anticipated? Strangely, the thought never occurred to him to alter hie plana. He had made up hia mind to acttle wherever the fifteenth hitch landed him. and he would do it, no matter how unencouraging the prospects were. He had to have prospects, that waa aura. The five thousand dollar* wu backed, and he carried on hie per»on the remainder of hia worldly caah assets. Unconsciously, hia hand reached into hia pocket to touch the tat wallet. There had been twelve hundred and eighty-two dollar* when ne left Biggy'a houae tour day* ago. In those four daya he had traveled a strange road. Up into New York ■ atate with a truck returning empty from Peapack. From there, in a ■nakelike, winding path through Pennsylvania and New York alternately until he got to Youngstown, Ohio. From that point hia route had turned eastward again. He had gone aa far south aa West Virginia, then up through Jersey, passing within twenty miles of hia old home. The hitches bad been short in the metropolitan district, but once be got into New England they had lengthened again. He nad ridden with businessmen, a doctor, workmen riding home from their factory, and once with an elderly lady who had lectured him for fifteen miles on the undesirability ot being a rolling stone. It bad not been easy getting away. The reporters, once they heard the terms of his grandfathers will, had camped on the doorstep m ••wr-increasing numbers, determined to have an Interview with the "disinherited heir to millions'* as the screaming headlines called him. They had had a field day tn their stories. and he had found insinuations in th* press to indicate that he WM everything from a scamp to a nincompoop, whik ms grandfather waa referred to by common consent as a "stern old eccentric." At first be had been very angry, then resigned aa he realized that there waa no way ne could combat them without giving them more juicy morsels on which to elaborate. Bigelow and he bad gone into consultation, and had decided ttat he should »tav ta the nouse until th* worst bad died dowg. la th* meantime, be had shaved off ms mustache, experimented with mo aatr until ae touno that a sid* part made nim look younger and mor* boyish.

They had agreed on Andrew Paulson m bis new name. Everything was settled except ms future abode, and it was then that he had determined on the device ot the fifteenth hitch. Beadle's voice interrupted bis thought. "You thinking of settling in Branfield tor good and all?" "I’m not thinking about it any more. Tve made up my mind," Andrew said. "You know, 1 guess 1 was being a bit cocky a while ago. I'm not really a practicing architect—that is, I’ve not bad enough business to be one—but I’m a good architectural draftsman. What chances ar* there in Branfield tor that sort of thing?" Beadle shook his bead. "Like 1 told you, there ain't any chances at all that I know ot Henry Terbush is th* only fellow with training in town, and n* just barely makes out. Does his own drafting, of course. There might b* something in the drafting line down to I-edyard's factory. You could try th«re. Wher* you going to *tay?" Andrew grinned. "I haven't the slightest idea. What hotel would you recommend?” ( "Hotel!” Beadle was scandalized. "What do you want to spend all your money tor like that? Os course, there's the Lodge, but that i would be pretty expensive Why . don’t you go to a tourist home?” "All right, 1 will What's a good j on*?" "Well," Beadle put bis head on ( on* side to consider, "there’s Beui lab s place—Beulah's my cousin—i but kinfolks or no kinfolks, I , wouldn’t advise you to stay there. , Sb* • skimpy on the blankets, and it gets right cold yet this time of , year.” He scratched hia bead and . apparently dismissing th* matter , from hi> mind, lapsed into silence. , A few miles passed, and then . Bcadte said, "I've been thinking. . You couldn't find a better place to , stop than Mis Potto*.

"You're very kind," Andrew said gratefully. For th* rest ot th* way, now that Beadle nad accepted mm aa a future resident ot eranncio, tney talked about the town. Andrew was insatiable, and Beadle was delighted to answer all m* questiuna. He nad an unusual amount ot civic pride, Andrew thought, but he was glad ot the chance to have a preview of ma new home When they approached the town, Beadle actually grew a HUI* excited. "Thia is ft we’r* coming to," he said, sitting atraighter at th* wheeL "See, there’s the residential district—that part up th* mil on your left. The river's down nere on the right—full ot rapids nere, and that'* where we get our power . . . Now this is Main Street That’s the Lodge—that big white building, and over there’s the new Post Office, and th* bank.” The truck went slower and slower through the busy street, while hia tongue wagged faster and faster, describing th* points of Interest. They crossed the railroad tracks, started up a steep hill, and suddenly were in open country again. "Is that—all?" Andrew asked, more dismayed than ever at tbe smailnesa of the community. "A1B” Beadle repeated indignantly. "Well, that's tbe business district—or most ot ft. There * , mor* to th* town, ot course. Th* river bend* north and th* town goes along with It for another , mile or so . . . Well, here’s th* l Potts place. Nice, aint it?” For * moment, Andrew could not answer.
