FACTORS AFFIIDTING BLOOD PRESSURE

we hear less about operations these days as with use of the new drugs and latest surgical methods, the death rate has been greatly re- duced. what we do hear most about is high blood pressure and the frequent attacks of brain strokes tapoplexy) and heart strokes (coronary thrombosis) due to high blood pressure.

While the individual with high blood pressure may always have high blood pressure. the height of the pressure may vary fr in day to day or even from hour t3 hour.

As there are so many patients with high blood pressure. it would be thought that the cause or causes would be well known but in his book "Control High Blood Pressure and Live Longer.” Dr. Herman Ponieraiiz visiting physician. Man-

hattan General llospllal. states that the cause in 95 per cent of cases is unknown but that studies have been made of at least twenty fac- tors which may influence the de- vclopmcnt of high blood presuie. ; " but none of these is reported as a L9 " !!'q cause. Some of these factors are: 1

It is un- fair to your wife to continue reminding her of the past. though she has certainly shown remarkable charity in her ncceptance of it. Why not turn over to her the job of sending packages, while you learn to put the entire episode out of your mind? To some ex- tent, this may seem cruel advice. but it is the fairest way in view of your present responsibilities to your wife and family.
