To Redupe High Blood Pressure \ I

i We have nO specific care for the most conujion variety of high blood pressure because wo do not l ] know its cause. Most patients vitli this condition are highstrung, many are overweight; thus, the usual treatment consists in the use of quiting drugs, plus ’..eight reduction. Surgery has been used With good results „ia certain instances, but this form < i treatment is not suitable in the majority of cases. r ‘ In recent years, Inuch work has ' \ centered around the use of special diets in an effort to see whether or not certain foods have an effect on the blood pressure. - V Perhaps the most promising of these is the rice diet, in which the patient is allowed from 250 to < C5G’ grafts of (rice' daily, plus fruq juices, sugars, and vitamins. This .diet provides; about 2,006 calories M a day, .with a minimum of fat and . protein. Oten some iron-contain-ing preparation is given to guard against anemia. About a quart of J-t water is allowed daily. ‘ • \i' s The; effective factor in this diet is that it keeps the intake of sodium to a minimum. TLhis is evidenced by the fact that when the Jat ients increased the amount pl . sodium intake in the form lot salt, the blood pressure rose immediately. j. .I, y So long as the diet was followed exactly,- 70 percent? of a group of _ patients using it showed a signif’rant fall in blood pressure, with an average decrease of shout 5' ’. .

CHAPTER THIRTY-SEVEN TONTO swung away from the fence to take a shortcut down a twisting canyon that threaded the, low hills. He burst out of the far end into a rolling valley. Beyono it were more hills and, in them, the box canyon. He could see the fire now, a line of high flames. Swift moving black spots marked the crew that fought the demon that swept up the canyon. Tonto raced across the valley. His horse scented the smoke now and wanted to turn and race away from? the flames. Tonto kept the reins taut with an iron hand. He saw now that the main fire had swept down into the box canyon. Flames also moved at right angles up and down the valley, leaving a black and smoking carpet. Tonto spurred in front of a man who raced toward the fire-fighting line. - “Where's Jess?” ’ “Up on the canyon rim. You can’t take a boss in there. It’s too hot” “The beef?” "I dunno. Roasted, maybe. We’re trying to save the rest of the grass in' this valley." Tonto swore, savagely swung his horse around. He looked up to the reddened hills. “Which side of the canyon?" z “Over there.” The man waved to the right with his hand and spurred on to help his friends. Tonto set his horse at the slope at a breakneck speed, leaning forward as though to help lift the animal, up the hill. He could hear the fire more clearly and he caught a sound that made him grit his „ teeth. It was the bawling of frightened, trapped cattle. At last the slope leveled off and Tonto swerved toward the canyon.

He heard rifles and guns just before he broke through a screen of .bushes. Blazing light from below 'the rim lined the forms of men along the canyon wall. Guns flashed in roar. Tonto vaulted from the saddle and raced forward, stumbling now and then. A man turned, saw him, and lowered the rifle. He ran to meet Tonto with a shout, and he recognized Jess Ide, The old man’s face was set and stern, misery and horror reflected in his eyes. “They’re trapped, Tonto. We caln’t reach a one of them. I told the boys to Shoot what they could. It’s better that way.” Tonto walked to the edge of the rim and looked down. To either side men fired methodically. From up here, Tonto could see the fire sweeping deeper and deeper into tho canyon. .» 7\ ( The cattle had stampeded before the blaze and were now Compacted into a pitiful huddle against the rock wall that held them prisoner. The fire swept closer and the frantic animals tried to stampede this way and that, only to bring up against the grim rock barriers. Beyond the advancing fire, in the smoking ruins of the grass, shubs and trees, Tonto saw highbulked, fallen shapes where the cows had dropped, killed by the flames or the trampling of their own kind. He felt very ill and his stomach turned over. ? Tonto reached his horse, gripped horn and cantie and leaned against the animal until the nausea left him. He straightened. The firing on the rim , suddenly broke off and he turned. The men were silent, looking down into the inferno that raged below. Most of the men had turned

' I u 0 Social Security Protection \ Self employed professional people can come under the old-age and survivors insurance provisions of the new social security, not from earnings as doctors, dentists, or other excluded vocations. Christian H. W. Luecke, manager of the Fort Wayne social security office, gives an example pt how a person in a non-covered occupation can have protection under social security. He cites the case of a funeral director. Earnings from this business are not credited toward okl-age and survivors insurance. However, if the funeral director also operates a furniture store, he is cohered as a self-em-ployed furniture dealer. His earnings from the latter enterprise up to $3600 a yeax will be credited toward his- social security account. Luecke points out that while people self-employed as doctors, dentists, lawyers, osteopaihs, naturopathy, optometrists, veterinarians, accountants, funeral directors or professional engineers are not building toward social security insurance through these professions, people employed by them in this work are covered. He urges everyone in this locality with an earned inedme from more than one kftid of business to get in touch with the office at 305 Federal Building. Fort Wayne, and find out whether they have insurance protection under the amended social security law. * Santiago, Chile’s capital, * was founded in 1541. Cadiz is; one of Spain’s chief seaports. ;

away from the rim. A few still stood there, held by a horrible fascination beyond their control. Jess Ide walked stiffly; stopped with a tired sigh beside Tonto. ? \ “It’s over.” He moved the back of his hand across his dry lipa “Not a cow critter saved. I dunno if the regular round-up will make up for the loss or not. Might, If we run our breed stock a little low.” Tonto shook his head. He felt all washed out, as if his body were a shell, empty of everything. He looked at the canyon rim and hastily away. \ “All lost,” he said heavily. His head lifted. “You left a guard here, Jess?" “Sure. Laramie Jones.” “Where is he?” . “I ain’t seen him. Our crew’s scattered all over the place fighting the fire. He’s around.” "Then Lar am id didn’t warn you ?” “No. Me’n Tex had gone into the ranch yard for a smoke and a talk about the drive tomorrow morning. I happened to look up and saw the glow in the sky. Tex figured it right off.. He yelled and we all came rushing up here as quick as our hosses’d take us. The fire had a terrible start by then, Tonto. Spread three ways, up and down the valley and was racing up the canyon.” “Does Laramie smoke?” Tonto said sharply. “Nope, chews. It wasn’t him, Tonto.” ’ “Where’s Tex ?” "He was trying to fight the canyon fire from below. He’ll he down there.” v \ ' x "Let’s tod him—and Laramie." (To Be Continued/
