' WORR-IED MOTHER.
ANSWER: Forget it. Every mother should buy herself a pair of good blinders and clamp them on her head when her son gets mar- ried. It is the only way she can keep herself from being worried to
she buys.
Just bear in mind that when your son got married you lost the right to interfere in his affairs. He picked out his wife and if he made u. fool choice, he has to pay for it, and you only make a bad matter worse when you call his attention to her faults.
Silence and blindness are the two most valuable qualities a mother- h-law can have if she really wants Johnny to make a success of his marriage. For if he has made a mistake in selecting a wife, he doesn't want Mom to know it and twlt him with "I told you so." And some- times, because mother-in-low has kept her hands off a touchy bride and never interfered with any of her silliness. the girl turns of her own "accord to her husband's mother for advice. "Hands off" is the motto _for all,‘ mothers-ln-law.

0F THE TEETH MR1’ AFFECT JIEARING AND BALANCE
THE "BITE"
I write frequently about loss of hearing, head noises, dizziness. pain in the ear-often caused oy too much liquid in the tissues sur- rounding the ear. The pressure of this affects the balancing canals causing the‘ above symptoms. Con- sulting an car specialist and cut- ting down on table salz and all salty foods usually brings niuclil relief in these cases. _
Another cause of dizziness, loss
tinned before, ll a dbl
the joint connecting lower jaw with the upper. This joint is dir- ectly under the ear.
In "Archives Oiolaryingology’ (ear and throat), Dr. Daniel J. Goodfriend states that defects of the "bite" of the teeth (upper and lower) often is related to ‘uhe sy-zngi- toms noted above-dizziness, loss of hearing, head noises-especially those conditions affecting the cus- tachlnn tube (the little tube carry- ing air from the back of the throat to the timer side of the eardrum».
Dr. Goodfrlend shows that the structure and shape of the outer canal of the ear, the drum and the walls of the middle par-t of the ear and the eustaclllan tube are all in- fluenced by the dental bite so that deformity, injury, and degeneration with a disturbance of blood and nerve 5upply may owul‘. He has been able to help the healing, and relieve dizziness and head noises by correcting the bite. Correcting the bite to take pressure off these ear structures requires treatment by a dental surgeon or the family dentist and orthopedic surgeon.
“Several cases are reported in which the conditions were first rc- ported as inflammation of the gall bladder (nausea. and vcmltinzl, brain tumor, Menleres disease and tic doloreux. All these patlems were relieved of symptoms by cor- rectlon of the bite."
The above information is fu.r- ther evidence that medical and dental students should take ‘lhe first two or three years of their courses together.
A couple of years ago it was shown that loss of the grinding teeth - molars - so interfered with the action of the joint be- tween the lower and upper jaw that loss of hearing and hell-i noises resulted.
