That Body Of Yours. By June w. Barton, nu.

TREATING THE PIPTIO ULCEB PATIENT

Several years ago a. young man who had been treated for ulcer of the stomach met his physician or the street and the physician com- plimented him on his appearance. The patient admitted that no looked good but stated that for months he had been unable to eat solid food.

"I drink several quarts of milk a day and for solids I drink eggnogs. using syphon soda instead or milk.”

The physician advised him to re- turn to his present physician be- cause he should be able to eat soltd food now that his ulcer was healed. An X-ray test using barium sui- phate was made which showed that while the ulcer had healed. it has left a large amount of scar tissue. which tissue was blocking the pass- age from stomach to intestine so that instead of having an inch or more passage, the scar tissue had reduced it to the size of a lead pen- cll so that only fluids could pass from stomach to small intestine where. of course. most of digestion takes place. The milk and eggs ac- counted for his gain in weight and good appearance. Although the ulcer was healed, by diet and medical treatment, this "scar' oh- struction made it necessary for a passage to be made from stomach to small intestine

I am writing the above because some ulcer patients are undecided as to whether to have an operation or undergo medical treatment The The fact is that the majority of these patients are treated by diet and alkalles and recover.

Some years ago I quoted Dr. Joseph Daly. Toronto. in the Can- adian Medical Association Journal in which he stated that it is now admitted that no one treatment is suitable for all peptic ulcers (ulcer or stomach or small intestine) "The physician no longer aims to treat the ulcer but to direct the management of the patient who has the tendency to ulcer.”

Ulcer patients have a tendon:-.,v to worry and the symptoms dis- appear when there is a prolonged period of relief from the wear and tear of life. A return to usual v.-brk. worry or mistakes in diet bf? on a return of ulcer symp- to '

Modern Etiquette

ly loberta Lee K - Q. is it really incorrect for a married woman to use her given name in her title, as "Mrs. Martha Gordon"! 1 see this quite often these days. - A. The increasing number of women in business undoubtedly ac- counts for the increasing use of Mrs. Martha. But it is still bevt social usage for a married woman or widow to call herself Mrs. Rob- ert ciordon. and for a dlvomee to substitute her maiden name in place of her ex-husband's given name. calling herself. for example. Mrs. smith Gordon.

ran downstairs. -Everything de- pended on secrecy. And speed. If Ohlltcrn should see her. if Mark should come back before aha got away-it was almost like an escape. The big ball was empty. The house might almost have been deserted. she pulled the soft tor of ha coat around her and opened the front door. running down the drive and around to Catlet's quarters. ,

Luck was with her, for Oatlet was Just running out the big car to go for Mark and Valerie. Lucy blessed her genius for getting on

-with servants as she called to him.

She had. she said, a sudden long- ing to take the Ark out for alittle run. was it in working order? Cat- iet assured her that it was as he had run it out only the day before to put it in a different place. she supposed, she said, that Catlet had heard the funny old thing was hers. Catlet had heard so, and told her gravely it was a fine old bus. would he get it out for her before he started? He would indeed. He did. The lumber- ing old hybrid. it new engine hum- ming quietly in its aged sides. rol- led majestically into the drive.

Lucy almost forgot her grid to smile as catlet stepped out of it in his smart uniform.

She invented delays. poking in- side, waiting for Catlet to leave. He evidently had no suspicion, for he stood a second waiting to see if she needed him. Then he got into Mark's car and drove away. Lucy ran the car quickly to I side door.

She crept up a back stairway to her door unseen. The upper hall was empty and she carried her luggage down piece by piece, mak- ing three trips and hiding her things in the back of the van. At last they were safe. Chlltem. the was sure, was at the front door. She got quietly into the Ark and started the engine. she drove sil- ently down the back drive and out of the service gates She hardly knew where she was going. but headed instlnctlveiy for Allingwn.

Now that the excitement of get.- ting away was beginning to wear off she was filled with a sort of panic. which gave way at last to complete desolation, It was ter- rible, she thought, how quickly she had learned to be taken care of. she brought all her reascn to bear on the thing. Less than a year ago she had never heard of Mark, had never seen wide Acres. had never known what it was to be looked after,

It ought to be easy to take up the chi ways again. Easier. because she was richi She had over i: thousand dollars in the bank at Allington. But while she was tell- ing herself this, she began to think of Wide Acres. How did you stand things that hurt you so? A line from a senior dramatic club's per- formance of Cymbeline two years ago came back to her. she had smiled tolerantly then, think- lng the words a bit too bombastic for a. modern age.

She whispered them over and over to herself now, as she look- ed out of the Ark into the gather- lng darkness. "There cannot be a pang in death more sharp than this!" She reached out and switch- ed on her headlights. Then she pulled up by the side of the road and, laying her arms over the wheel, gave herself to grief.

Dorothy was resting in her room when Mark and Valerie returned. she could hear them laughing in the hall below. and -than on the stairs. she was by now thoroughly frightened by what she had done. she had acted on impulse, as usual. with no reason about the thing. She would have given anything now to undo it.

if she could only have got away before Lucy went. But if she had done this, how could she be sure that Ililcy would go at all? What was to keep her from carrying the whcle story to Mark? What would he do when he found out she had gone?-

Dorothy had of course intended to see the thing tlarough; get Lucy safely out of the house, see" that no incriminating not: was left behlnd. she wondered now how she could have been so weak I5 to leave Lucy alone.
