spcoxp OPERATION FOE RELIEF or Low BACK PAIN

Despite the fact that operations for removal of H. crushed or herni- ated disc (the cushion between the oones of the spinal column) have given relief from low back pain and sciatica to thousands of patients. the return of those painful symp- toms sitter months or years is not iucommon.

In the Journzil of Neurosurgery (SpYl.flgilClCI, Ill.) Drs. J. Green- wood Jr.. T. H. McGuire and F. Kunbrll r9llfll'10.(I that of S32 pat- ents operated upon by them for iernialcd disc, 58 had second op- erations.

Thus in only 3" (rises can the need for second opt ution br-. ascribed to fnilure of tho ii t opcration.

For Tomorrow

WHILE intimate. private. social or romantic affair: or plan: may bring gratifying ruults, other mat- ters may be complicated. futile or unfruitful. Employment. deals with superiors, public officials or others in place and power may not. develop along hoped-for lines. In fact. there could be some sort of tangible loss, or s. regrettable decline in prestige in wounded pride or personality. Refrain from inconsiderate ges- tures to superiors.

For the Birthday

Those whose birthday it is may enjoy u pleasant or agreeable state of affairs in their domestic, inti- mate, romantic and social contacts, with much to gratify and please. But in purely business contacts, in employment or relations with those in high places, there is likely to be friction or lack of understanding or co-operation. Minds and emo- tions may operate at cross-pur- poses unless the social instincts are utilized to mitigate the situation. Loss of funds, prestige or standing could result from rash or untenable judgment.

A child born on this day could complicate its frlendlf relations and interests in life by an impulsive or mercurial rule of conduct. its social and romantic instincts are more gratifying.

Now with daily mail, telephone, radio, electricity, the whole world knocks at our doors.

And did we not at a recent W. I. gathering contrast past modes of travelling with that of the pres- ent? Then the farm-wife from a distance must depend on some faithful old mare and buggy to set her down at length at the place of foregatherlrig. Now she floats there in no time i.n some shining machine! And have we not left the team and plow, the narrow barrows of once, far behind to ac- cept instead those powerful ma- chlnes of tillage and sowing and harveslgwhich in their dispatch of farm-work, laugh at the outmod- ed gearing of Lhe past?

with the two we came to survey the new bridge this afternoon, to- ward sunset, when the machines there were rested. the workers sep- arated to their homes . . .through a pasture scented now with that sweet scent of the passing year we walked.

"That is - without scooping.” we added. ”Stoopingl" they replied laughing. "You would not have to stoop to go through this one!"
