APPEL, SECRETARY OF
HEALTH
Appendicitis
“From the old days of the “Doctor
Book” down to this highly health-con-
scious period, a large number of per-
sons have refused to admit their limit-
ations in the healing art. Seeking out-
side advice on every other conceivable
subject with which they are personal-
ly unfamiliar, they make a glaring and
sometimes fatal exception of bodily ail-
ments. Thus, in their own conceit or
upon the non-professional advice of
friends, they diagnose conditions and
prescribe remedies. The extreme folly
of this attitude is eloquently demon-
strated in appendicitis,” states Dr.
Edith MacBride-Dexter, Secretary of
Health.
Some time ago a study of thousands
of hospital appendicitis cases was made
in a metropolitan city. It was quite
conclusively proved that the mortality
was « edly higher among those in-
dividuals who, under a woefully mis-
guided idea of their ability to define
symptor took laxatives to eliminate
the abdominal pains associated with
the condition. For example, among
those ho took one laxative dose 1 in
4 su imbed. While of those who per-
sisted in this type of self-treatment 1
in 7 died
“This story in itself is quite impres-
si But to it must be added the pen-
alties of delayed proper treatment. The
investigation showed that only 1 out of
every 39 patients died who were oper-
ated upon during the first twenty-four
hours of the attack. Of those receiving
operative attention 48 hours after the
onset 1 in 24 failed to survive. The
patients operated upon 72 hours after
first symptoms had a fatality rate
3. Finally, those reaching the
1g room after seventy-two hours
following the onset developed a mor-
tality rate in the majority of instances
the delay was caused by self-diagnosis
and self-dosing.
“Certainly, such a situation justifies
an emphatic warning to everyone who
riences persistent adbominal pain
of 1 to
opera
expe
When so suffering no one should take a
laxative or cathartic unless it is pro-
fessionally advised. Indeed, nothing
should be taken by the mouth. Instead
the family physician should be sent for
promptly. Pain of this kind which
continues usually is serious.
“It is logical to assume that a fair
proportion of the increased appendicitis
toll could be decidedly diminished if
the habit of self-diagnosis and self-
medication could be curbed.”

A WISE OWL
A lady who lives on a farm near
Silver Springs went to Philadelphia
| to her daughter who had been mar-
ried six months prior and gone there
to live. When her daughter met her
at the station the mother exclaimed,
“Say, you've certainly lost weight
since you moved to the city.”
“Yes,” said her daughter, “I'm just
a shadow of my farmer self.”
At the Hershey pool on Sunday I
heard a town youth (who was jeal-
ous because his girl was flirting) re-
{mark: “Most girls have a sinking
| feeling whenever they see a hand-
| some life guard.”
A Donegal St. lady told me she’s
expecting a great deal of company
from July 1st to the 5th, but that she
was going to lock the doors when
they came. “Say,” I inquired, “what
|kind of company are you expecting,
if you don’t want to let them in?”
She replied “The gas company, the
telephone company and the electric
| company.”
Users
“Do you want to know something?”
asked Red Metzler's girl. “Sure,”
answered Red, real interested. “Well
don’t give up hope, maybe some day
you will!” she replied disgustedly.
Sunday two New Haven St. coup-
les went for a long drive together.
The husbands occupying the front
seat and the wives the rear seat. Af-
ter listening to the one woman talk
almost continuously giving advice on
how to drive for the first fifty miles
the one man leaned over and whisp-
ered to the driver: “That wife of
yours can talk a mile a minute.”
“Yes,” agreed the driver, “she’s the
| fastest back-seat driver in the coun-
| try.”
|
| Every man has his own peculiar
|way of proposing to his girl, but a
proposal that I overheard on Monday
| night was carrying things a little too
far and mixing business with plea-
| sure,
| A Columbia baker proposed to his
Vos ae
|girl and this is what he said: “Sweet
(I'm a well BREAD young man and

refuse me, SUGAR, or youre CRUL-
LER than I think you are!”
A very excited man from Manheim
[St., rushed into the fire house last
[night and excitedly exclaimed: “Say,
did you know I have a fire at my
{ house!”
And Roy Eshleman, who was busy
| playing pinochle, very unconcerned
[said: “How absurd! With the weath-
er so warm, too.”

“Your methods of cultivation are
[ hopelessly out of date,” said a youth-
{ful agricultural college graduate to
|his father, who had farmed all his
|life.” “Why I'd be astonished if you
{got even ten pounds of apples from
[that tree,” he continued.
| “So would I,” replied the old far-
| mer. “It's a pear tree.”
Not enough people mind their owin’

“My mother-in-law left a note
| saying she intended to commit sui-
{cide with my old army rifle,” re-
| marked a World War veteran to a
pal. “That's too bad,” sympathized
his buddy.
“It certainly is,” continued the vet-
eran. “The darn thing’s broken.”—
He would get a tough break like that.
A crowd of fellows were standing
in front of “Jack’s Restaurant” in
Elizabethtown when one of the fel-
lows, who weighed about 200 lbs and
was 6 ft. tall remarked: “Well, I have
to run along and take a sewing les-
son.” “A sewing lesson,” inquired
one of the other fellows. “Well, mer-
thy, goodness me!”
The 200 pounder, bristled and said,
“Don’t get sarcastic. I'm studying to
be a surgeon.”
A Sporting Hill mother called up
