Excess Smoking In Relation To Lung Cancer

, ‘ MANY experts) feck that the great increase in lung jvancer toted in the pas| 25 years must ' 1 e accounted for iby pine feature of our modern life. For this reason they have pin- the finger on excess smoking as-a possibility. A number-x»f studies nave been car- ' tied out along tlulse lines to See if any such relationship can be established. One of the most recent studies included -(149 men pud 65$ women with cancer of the lung. Os the men victims, only p. 3 percent I roved to be nop-smokers, but among the womjen the percentage proved higher 31.1 percent. The » corresponding figures for a similar group not having can.-, cer was 4.2 penitent for men, and 53.0 percent. for women. A relatively high proportion of those Laving cancer of lung were heavy smokers. * Tjwenty-six ‘percent of the men and nearly 15 percent of the women smoked 25 or more cigarettes a day, while only 13.5 percent of rue 'men and none ofithe female non-qancer patients smpked as much. [The figures, show" that cigarette smoking w’as more [closely related to' cancer of the lung than pipe smokipg- No relation betweej cancer and inhaling the smoke was demonstrated, t. e Taken as a whole, the lung cancer patients had begun to smoke earlier and continued, for a longer period- than those; who did n>t have (cancer.

Many argue, that; this' increase is, in any! case, only apparent ajid due to the fact that present-day physicians jare diag» •using cancer more often, while a lew years ago it was often overlooked because of the extreme I difficulty of diagnosis. (Also, more autopsies are being performed at the present time, thereby increase iing the number of lung cancers discovered. i Thus, without a greater mar of facts, it canpet be said with any accuracy just j how much ot a role, if any, (obacted plays as ;• cause of lung cfchcer. ; " - QUESTIONS aJnD ANSWERS MR.: How does a wprjian knoW 1 she is goipg through j the menopause? j \ Answer: The mepn[pause it usually j characterized ;by som| change in the menstruation, sues as a decrease of irregularity, hoi flushes, and Head? mihes may also be & ■ frequent c omplaint.

CHAPTER TWENTY-FOUR ■ TONTO remained at the Rafter K until close to sundown. Neither he nor Lob said anything to Roy about what had happened jp them, hut Tonto 1 had a that he knew. The three; 61 them had sat on the \ wide, cool verandah and talked lazily.? mostly about the round-ups that were due to start before very long. Late in the afternoon the wrinkled cowboy returned from Avrilld and Lois left to check in the supplies he had brought. Roy reachec| for the bottle and poured himself a drink. "A man can’t breathe in these parts," he said, "but what word of it spreads like a Are. Heard you were in Avrillo the other day.” Tonto looked up sharply. "I was.’? Roy held his ’drink up to the , light and squinted through it as though its color were very Important. “1 reckon the gossips didn't miss a thing.” "Meaning Ruby?” Tonto said. Roy hbdded. • \ \ “Meaning her. Also meaning Bart Overby." p Tonto settled back in his chair. “Rick Staples knew Ruby—that’s a point. He knew Bart Overby and that’s another. He was killed (or a , good reason that hasn’t been discovered yet. Someone knows why, , and someone knows who. It might Ibe Bart—it might be Ruby.” 5 "Sounds reasonable,” Roy nodded. ’ “I talked to Vic Ellers and learned what little he knows. Ruby’s name came up, and Bart Overby’s—and reasons why Bart might have done the killing. Signs keep pointing to Ruby and I had a chance to talk to her—alone. I took it.” “Learn anything?" “Very little. But she’s somewhere in the picture.” Roy said nothing more and in another moment Lois returned. Tonto stayed for supper and left boon afterwards, Lois going with him as far as the ranch gate. They stopped there and Star watched 1 them, placid, patient and somehow knowing. Lois looked back at the house then kissed Tonto. \ “It’s like a dream,” she said. “It’ll come true,” he promised. “You know, I’ve got to.find out who killed Rick.” “Yes,” he voice “I hope you do. Riclc and I were engaged. He wanted us to be married right away—but he was still Wild and I was afraid. I made him wait. Then —he was killed.” "It was too bad -for Rick,” Tonto said. "But I can’t be downright sorry. Now there’s you and me.” “But soipeone killed him. I want you to find whoever did it. Only— I \

be careful, Tonto. I—couldn’t stand for you to be—killed, too.” He kissed her again, turned to Star and swung into saddle. Once he turned and looked back. He could see her by the gate, watching him. He raised his hand and she waved. It had been a long, long time since he had felt so happy. He whistled, broke off to grin at riothihg at all and then hummed to himself; Star’s ears swiveled back toward him and 'Tonto laughed aloud in sheer exuberance. “You’re listening to a man that's loco, Star—plumb, crazy loco!” He whistled a few bars and broke off short “She’s the real thing. Star. Pretty as I’ve ever seen. Straight through honest, too. She’s one to ride the river with.” » He came to the gate in the line fenceand rode through. He closed it after him but did not ride on right away. He sat silent and thoughtful, looking back on the Rafter K. He felt as though he wanted to thank someone for this thing that had happened to him — , someone or something far greater i than he. who had brought his desI tiny to this point. i He said nothing, but his -deep, • quiet thoughts were a player of > thankfulness. At last he sighetj, - contentedly, and turned Star toward home. When he came into the Slash S I yard, it was dark. ’Lamplight glowed in the bunkhouse and t through a window of Frick’s cott tage. No one was around tn the 5 yard, there was no glow of clgarets i and pipes from the bunkhouse w-all. t Tonto thought little of it. He unsaddled and watered Star, turned the bay into a stall In the ! bam. Then he walked out to the yard i*~nin. This time he noticed i that the loafers Were not seated on . the hard benches before the bunkt house. He had started toward the J big house but he stopped, frownr ing. There could be a card gAme 1 running inside, but it would have i to be an unusual one to keep every ? man around the table. He opened the screen door and stepped inside the bunkhouse. All . the men were grouped around a t bunk along the far wall. They looked up hastily, saw that it was » Tanto. There was something in . their faces that set alarm bells' t ringing in Tonto’s brain. They were I hard eyed, their jaws set, anger i close to the surface, .[• ! ' Tonto strode forward anl the > group broke. Only Jess Ide bent t over the form stretched out on the -bunk. It was Tex Jonas. Tonto t came up Just as Jess arose slowly - with a sigh.

“He’ll make it all right, put to ribbons,” I Tonto stopped short and his eyes widened. Tex lay full length on the bunk. His face was swollen, his lips had been cut, and it looked as if his> nose was broken. One eye had disappeared in puffy, angry flesh and his shirt had been ripped. He was unconscious and lay breathing heavily. “What happened to hint ?” Tonto. asked, stunned. Jess Ide shuflled and stuck his hands in his pockets, “Better ask Ken Frick,” he answered. One of the men cursed, ‘ Ask Frick, nothin’! I’ll tell him. That’s Frick’s work. The kid didn’t have a chance from the beginning and Brick knowed it He deliberately cut the boy up — tried to break him.” “Frick!” Tonto could only stare at the boy. Jess cleared his throaty and nodded. “That’s right. HC assigned the horses for the round-up work late this evening—just afore supper. He gave TeX all the worst hosses, without spreading ’em out to some of the rest & us. Tex said something about “Frick planned for the fight from the beginning,” a puncher cut - in. “Frick knpwed Tex would be mad. Why, any of us would! A man expects one or two houses that ain’t the best there is, but to have his whole string that way except his own pony 4-!” Tonto askedi a silent question of Jess Ide with his eyes. The older man nodded I and shrugged. “That’s about it. Frick told Tex he could take the string or get off the Slash js —pronto. The kid was sort of set ■back on his heels for a minute, just, plain flabbergasted. Then he said something else and Frick hit him. Knocked him sprawling.

"He cut the kid’s face up before he knocked him blit. Wc was getting mad, and I think Frick knowed it. He ’didn’t punish the kid no more, but laid ' him out cold.” “Asked us if we wanted any part of it.” the angry puncher spoke up again. “Said we could take his orders or draw our time right then and thers." -'4-'* “We didn’t argue,” Jefes Ide said. | “We brought the kid in And started ■ patching'him up.” • \ .(Io Ee Continued)

Homemaking Tips by Evelyn Gerke Assistant Home Demonstration Agent Contaminated Food Can Spoil Picnic ' The fun of a picnic is soon forgotten by those who become ill from eating contaminated foods. It h important to keep picnic foods cold and in a sanitary condition to prevent spoilage. When foods are left in a warm car while the family hhs a good time at a family reunion or on an outing, bacteria has., a chance to develop and the possibility of food poisoning increases j Bacteria thrive in foods which are Warm and moist. i. Surveys show that food poisoning has been caused frequently by cream pies, meats, meat mixtures, in sandwiches, potato salad, and poultry. There is less chance for bacterial spoilage When foods are chilled prior to pat king and kept cold until they are ready to use. They should be carefully protected from Insects;’ files, and rodents. ‘ ’ ’ « More appetizing and, safer Sandwiches may be prepared by each person at the picnic from .‘chilled sandwich fillings kept cold in a thermos container and lettuce brought to the picnic in waxed paper or inoist plastic bags. Vegetables may be washej at home and placed in,a plistic bag or wrapped , in a damp cloth and then in Waxed paper. Fresh fruits a.nd vegetables should b’e thoroughly washed in safe water before being eaten The * picnic beverage could be fruit juice or cofS niilk. Thermos jugs' help to keep thpse beverages both Safe and ; acceptable. These jugs Van be improvised by using a tin container slightly larger than a glass jar. Moist newspaper maybe packed tightly between glass jar and tin container. The neck bf the jar should extend above the newspaper to prevent the iced beverage from contacting newsprint when being poured. Vacationers should patronize markets which handle good qualityfood and maintain sanitary storage places. Likewise, they shquld patronize eating establishments which handle quality foods and prepare them in clean Accidents in the Home More accidents happen in the kitchen than in any other room in the house. Careful management' of equipment, time and energy will help tb eliminate unsafe practices. Accidents often happen wheo_.the honiemakt,r Is in a hurry or is tired.

CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE TONTO looked down at Tex. The boy moaned and moved his head to one side. Tonto’s lips grew thin and there was a white, bloodless line around them. He looked around the circle of angry, questioning faces. “I’m not the sort of man," he said slowly, “who believes in—" He ’(stopped, choked. “You’re going to have a new boss or a new segundo in just about a minute. Stand hitched, all of you." He wheeled and walked out of the bunkhouse. He headed directly toward the little cottage whore the light glowed like a steady chal- ' lengc. Tonto could not think clearly, didn’t want to at the moment. Frick’s action had been like a slap in the face but, more than that it had been one of needless, arrogant cruelty. Tonto did not see the crew standing in an irregular line before the bunkhouse. He reached tfee cottage, bounded up the steps to the porch. He didn’t knock, but jerked, the door open and strode inside. The front room was dark but a stream of light played through the open door to 'the kitchen. Frick appeared in the doorway. “Who’s there?” Tonto didn’t answer but strode into the light. Frick tensed, then his mUscles relaxed. He saw the anger in To n t o’s face and he grinned. He wore a belt and gun, sure sign that he expected trouble of one kind or another. He" took a couple of steps backward and placed his fingertips lightly on the table. His right hand hung just below the holster, the fingers spread out a little, checked, remained there. ' \ • ' “Why?” Tonto demanded and Frick knew what he meant. “I gave an order. He wanted to auger. He got’his wish.” “You pickedfthat fight deliberate, Frick. You struck at me through Tex Jonas.” Frick’s brows moved upward but he said -nothing. “You’re a dirty liar,” Tonto finished. ( , • Frick’s lips snapped shut and a muscle moved in his cheek. "What do you aim to do about it?” “You’re fired,” Tonto said. “Pack your roll and hit the trail now—tonight. You’ve had your chance but you sure finished it today.” Frick laughed, a harsh and rasping sound. “Listen to the little rooiter crowing. You can’t fire me, Riley. You’re not—*

Sharp knives, cause fewer ciits than dull ones because homemakers recognize their sharpness and use them carefully. A safe practice is to cut away from the body when using a knife.

Tonto moved, his fist looping up. Frick dodged, warding off the blow with his left arm. His right hand slashed, to the holster and »the heavy Colt blurted out. Tonto caught the movement. He used shoulder and chest, a slashing blow to smother the draw and he partially succeeded. Frick fell back. The gun exploded and the bullet smashed into thb far wait The segundo tangled in a chair, grabbed wildly to catch himself, went down to his knees. He started to lift the gun, froze. He looked directly into the menacing bore of Tonto’s Colt. Frick licked his lips. ' J “Drop it,” Tonto ordered. Very slowly Frick loosened his fingers and his weapon, hit the floor. “Get up.” Frick arose. Tonto stepped close and kicked the man’s gun under the wood stove across the kitchen. Frick, breathing heavily, watched it skitter from Sight. The front door crashed open and a second later Jess Ide said, *'Oh,’ ’in a quiet vqice. _ . T “See that his horse is saddled, Jess,” Tonto ordered. “He’s leaving us.” Tonto made a sign with his gun toward the bedroom. “I’ll see you get packed." \ Frick’s eyes locked with Tonto’s, then dropped. He shrugged and moved into the bedroom, Tonto following wijh the lamp. He placed it on a washstand and stood in the doorway while the segundo opened drawers and pulled out his belong-' ings. At last he had his bedroll lashed, a war bag filled. He straightened, waiting. “Your pay,” Tonto said and handed him some bills. Frick accepted the moncySstuffed it in Kis pocket. Tonto his head toward the door. “Xou've taken too long now.” V I]. ■ In the kitchen, Frick stopped, looked toward the stove. “My gun?” “It’ll be sent to Avrillo,” Tonto said. “You can pick it up there. The quicker you get out of my sight, Frick, the better off you’ll be. Right now it wouldn’t take much to get you a pistol whipping.” .[ Frick sneered and opened his mouth. He thought better of it and moved out of the cottage, walking with a slight swagger across the yard toward the corral. Tonto followed close behind him, gun swinging in his hand at his side. Jess Ide had Frick’s horse saddled and ready. The crew stood in

a silent circle. There was a slight movement toward Frick as he and Tdnto came up but Jess Ide spoke quietly. Frick strapped on his blanket rolland tied the war bag to the saddle. In a deep silence, he swung up the stirrup. He looked down , on Trento, then his head turned as he eyed the men before) he turned to Tonto again. “I’tl be back some day, Riley.” j "That’s your mistake.

He disappeared in the darkness spoke swiftly. < “Send a man after him, Jess. Just?to make Sure.” Without orders, a puncher left the group. In a few minutes ho followed Frick into the darkness. The ’.group broke up and Tonto went- into the bunkhouse. Tex ktill Jay unconscious and Tonto winded at the sight, of the battered face. He Considered a doctor and then decided against it. The men had already done as much as a doctor ( . could. Tonto went outside, Jess Ide following him. The older man carefully, filled a pipe, struck a match and puffed in a slow and deliberate rhythm. He snapped out the match. ; 'll “The boys never liked Frick. They’re glad to see him gone. Owen Bradley made a sad mistake. Frick was mean and. he had a lot of •.

You can move in the cottage tonight. Maybe you’d better let it Air until-morning, though-.” Tonto moved away toward the j ranch house.
