Sigmund Engel who wooed wo nun with great financial success and married a few, lost his bravado when the jury found him guilty of fleecing a comely widow of |«.7vo. Formerly he bragged that he would not spend a day In jail, but with the jury's verdict it looks like he might spend some lime in prison. He lived too easiiy and now has reached the time when he must pay the fiddler. 0 o While Washing! n has been discussing the devastating power of atomic bombs a tragedy occurred at th<- banks of the Potomac river that was more disastrous than any bomb could have inflicted. A Bolivian Air Force pilot, who presumably did not understand English language too well, rammed a big Eastein Air Lines plane within sight of the landing field, crushing the passenger liner. Everyone of the 55 passengers was killed In point of fatalities, it was the worst airplane accident ever to occur in this country There must be a remedy for avoiding such t* rrlble calamities, even if it be in the peaceful pursuit of studying lan guages.

The Most Common of Ai Iments

By Herman N. Bundesen, M.D. | CONSTIPATION is probably the 1 commonest of human ailments. At one time or another, everyone suf-| fers from it and, for some people,. It Is a more or less constant prole | lem. Constipation means that there is | a delay in expelling waste matter f-om the bowel. As a rule, this should occur once in 24 hours but' there are wide variations whi<*nl are g ill perfectly normal. For some people, two bowel movements a day are normal: others get along all right with one in two days. The causes of constipation are legion These include faulty diet., lack of fluids, too little exercise, poor habits, and fatigue. Very of-1 ten it results from the abuse of i enemas, that is. injections of fluid ’ into the lower bowel, and laxatives, j AU of us need a well-balan. ed | diet —one which contains all of the I necessary vitamins snd minerals, proteins frxsiJ such foods as meat. ‘ milk, and eggs, some fats and starchy foods, and a few sweets Many foods eaten nowadays are ao concentrated that they do not supply enough bulk If the diet Is made up solely of these concentrated foods. consti|»ation will develop The intestines will net func titm sortually unless eaeufh bulk

ed in the controversies on na tional defense and was removed Sherman is comparatively a young naval head, at 53 being junior to the several admirals who comprlso the chief of staff He has been a fighter and during the war was commander of the Wasp and Lexington airplane carriers He has the knack of leadership, plus brilliancy and should be the right man for this very important navy assignment. There is a slight difference in the labor contracts recently sign ed by the Ford Motor Company and the Bethlehem Steel Company and the unions representing the employes In these plants, tn the Ford plant the maximum |lob pension will he payable after 3u years of service, while with the steel company the perkid of employm* nt need be only 25 years. The 1100 monthly pension plans also include secured payments earned under Social Security. The agreements should pave the way for continuous employment in th* • large industries, for the worker will lose his pension benefits if he quits work or changes * mployment. Cure For Colds? The federal Food and Drug Ad ministration has released some of the anti • histamine drugs for sale without a doctor's prescription. and apparently they are to in- sold primarily as a remedy tor the common cold. The antibistaminies are quite new, so new that rare is the household dictionary which will give the r* ader any help with the name. They were developed in connection wi h the study of allergies, chiefly in hay fever and asthma, and are drugs which are found to have the ability to oppose or niutrilize histamine, a mysterious -übstance produced within the body of v person when he is exposed to something to which ne is allergic. it would be a gross exaggeration of medical opinion to say that the anti-histamlnics are a cure for the common cold So far as has been established, there Is no cure for the cold; there are only medicines which relieve the symptoms, while the cure remains up to the natural processes of the body. Because of the similarity between the symptoms of cold and those of many allergies, expt ritnenis were made with the use of antihUtamibirs in treating colds. Sight should not be lost of the hazards attached to the use of anti bistaminies. In normal dosage they sometimes produce the *ffect of a potent sleeping pill, and there are inherent dangers in overdosage ts any drug which alters the chemistry of the body. Th* use of these drugs, and the hope that they may banish the eold, should be approached with caution

.-Is supplied. Vitamins and minerals, such as , lime, phosphorus, and iodine are 1 also needed. A well-rounded diet ,is necessary so that the entire I body may act normally, including the intestines A lack of fluid Is another cause of constipation. Fluids are lost from the body each day. The ■ amount of water a person require* I varies with the nature of the work : he does. If the water intake is less than the amount needed, the body saves fluids by taking the water out of the excretions. This means that the water in the howel is rap- , idly lessened and constipation results. The average person In good health needs from six to eight glassfuls of fluid a day. Constipation cannot be cured by i the continued use of laxatives and . enemas. It requires correction of | the factors which produce it. QUESTIONS ANO ANSWERS E.L.: Can carious teeth cause I a< hinr joints, weakness, and rapid I heart beat? Answer: It is not likely that carious teeth are responsible for the <-ondition. Infection in the teeth, however, may lead to infection in other parts of the body. Carious teeth should be repaired er remo-td. I
