That's because this timeproven Dr. Chase remedy for backache treats two conditions at once-contains special remedial ingredients for both the kid- ney and liver disorders which often cause backache.

sician, after giving me a thorough examination, explained what was causing the symptoms. He sat down and talked to me for at least half an hour, pointing out why the treatment he was advising would re. move the cause. and with the cause removed I would get back to nor- mal. It just appealed so much to my wmmon sense that I couldn't help but obey his instructions if l want- ed to get well."

What caused this patient to be willing to follow the advice of this last physician and not the others- yet all gave her the same advice? It was because the last physician took the trouble to go into the whole situation, carefully explain- ing how infection interferes with the normal processes of the body, and that if the infection is remov- ed and the cause removed. the body processes will again be able to do their normal work.

some may refer to tihis method of treatment as a good bedside man- ner. But. the name, as we know it. is psychotherapy - psycho. the mind, and therapy the method of treatment. Psychotherapy. then. is treating the patient —- all his symp- toms — through the mind. This method of treatment means that the physician instills faith in the patient by taking him into his con- fldence. making everything clear by the use of simple language.

It was Charles Mayo who stated tho/l. the physician who did not take his patient into his confidence was not. up to date; he was very much behind the tfirnes.

NUT BUTTONS

More than 500 million buttons are made in the United States every year from nuts that grow wild on palm trees in the jungles of South America. About 100 nuts grow in a single bunch. The nut "meat" is sawn into thin slices which are sent to the factories for manu- facture into buttons.

Somebody has recently estimated that 10,000 million buttons are turn- ed out by 300 United States factor- ies in a normal year. Before clothes rationing began in Britain it was said that at least 3.000 million but»- tons were used every year.

People have been using buttons in Britain since the tenth century, when they were more ornamental than useful. They were often made of gold or silver and were imported from abroad.

Included among tho many sna- teriais from which buttons have been made are plated copper, white metal. steel, pinch-beck. japanned tin. glass. mother-of-peari, ivory. bone. tortolsesheli, jet. paper. milk and wood.

mn wizaim AND THE mossrsas

This curious legend tells us about Neufrage. the wizard. his Indian wife. Powhonta. their half-witted son, Neapon, and the monsters. The story takes the reader back to the days of the French regime and to Prince County. The setting is near the "Bottomless Lake." Now, Neufrage was a wizard of great renown, a person much fear- ed by the French settiers and th ir Indian friends. But when tho w z- ard carried off the Indian maiden, Powhonta, and made her share his isolated dwelling without benefit of clergy, the people became very angry and would have slain the creature, had they not feared his supposed supernatural powers. The Wizard's odd abode. half wigwam and half cabin, stood hard by the desolate region which tra- ditlon says was the. home of strange monsters that resembled wolves. it was in this awful atmosphere that Neapon was bqrn and raised: a child of the wilds, he preferred the company of the beasts and was with them almost as soon as he had learned to toddie about. '

Neapcn‘s parents frequently re- ferred to their offspring as the \volf- child. on account of his spending so much time with the beasts of the swamp. Often they watched him riding about on the backs of the fierce brules and pofidereddn their hearts how the boy had man- aged to subdue them to his will.

I O O

One fall, when the crops had failed and the people were faced with an almost foodless winter.

they remembered Neufrage and attributed their misfortunes to some evil design on his part. So

they formulated plans to have the wizard and his family banished from the Isle of St. Jean.

The night chosen for the act of deportation was late October. when the moon would be in last quar- ter.

Almost the entire male popula- tion joined the expedition, which was headed by a band of Indian torchbearcrs and guides. For wea- pons they carried everything from muskcts to hatchets. The torch- bearers lighted the route of tra- vei.

At exactly twelve o'clock mid-

night. the procession drew up in front of the Wizard's home and de- manded that he and his family give themselves up. The couple were fast asleep at the time and it took them several minutes to dress and appear before the angry mob. . Neufrage was very angry at be- ing disturbed and demanded to know what all the "fuss was about and why he had been roused from his bed at auch an hour.

A spokesman for the party now stepped forward and voiced- their

"We have come." said the speak- er. "to banish you and your family from the Isle of St. Jean. Too long have we been subjected to your evil influences. the last of which being the destruction of our crops."

"And what if we do not moose to give ourselves into your hands?" questioned the wizard. "Neither myself nor my son has raised our hands against any one of you, and as for Powhonta-why, sho would not harm o. fly."
