Is it correct for an employ- er to introduce his secretary to a caller by saying, Jones. this is my secretary. Mis Brown." or shouldn't he give the woman's name first. as. "Miss Brown. this is Mr. Jones"?

FINDING CONDITION OF LINING OF STOMACH

The symptoms of cancer of the stomach are sometimes so mild that the patient does not consult his physician until it is too late. He thinks he is afflicted with mild indigestion and at the very worst there is only a. little inflammation of lining of the stomach (gastritis) present. .

Ulcer of the stomach is more readily diagnosed hy patient and physician because the pain comes on regularly two to three hours after eating and can be relieved by eating food or taking an alkali, such u baking soda.

The symptoms of cancer of the stomach are: (al feeling of dis- comfort at any time-before. after or between meals; ihi ms and dis- terrsion; (cl loss of appetite: tdl tired feeling and loss of weight.

When cancer is suspected. the X-ray is considered the best single method of learning whetitcr or not is it present. Another method is giving the patient a test meal. al- lowing stomach digestion to pro- gress for a certain time and then withdrawing the contents of the s-'.cu.nach and examininz for pres- cn.-e or absence of li,vdroch'.orl: acid, the extent of digestion within the given period. and the presence. if any. of suspicious cancer cells.

A third method of examining is by use of the qastrnscopc. in which

a small mirror within a hollow tube is pus-heil down the throat into the stomach. cnahllns: the

physician to see a goodly portion of the lining of the stcrnach. He can tell by the color and appear- ance whether inflammation (cas- tritisl or ulcer or ('an"9r is present.

It is interesting to.'.enrn that by means of a new operating flexible gasirosconc. ii. is now possible to remove a tiny portion of the stom- ach lining Ibiopsyi. which portion can be examined under microscope and so learn whether or not can- cer is present.

In Archives of Pailiology. Chic- ago. Dr. E. F. Benedict state: that a total of 63 biopsy spcrimcns was obtained without accident or complication by the use of this new operatic flexible szastroscone. and. was found especially valuable in differentiating between cancer and gastritis, And. fortun-tiely. the condition of tissue linlnc the stoni- ach. as learned bv biopsy may give a clue as to what condition- ulcer or cancer-may occur in the future. and early trratnir-nt may be given.

We stopped on a verandah this afternoon to admire the play of sunlight on "the waters of' the mill-pond. It sparkled with a summer-like nu" btness. before all too soon. the gold of it faded and instead. tree-shadows were put there, reflected prettily on its sur- face. These had been stripped of their verdure but still graceful they leaned to mirror their re- flectious there. A slim young white birch - the dark tuselled alders. and "up along" where the creek flows down darkly now. the -wild cherries. the brides of Spring. . .

A white birch. our friend of long years. and holding now a bewitch- ing empty nest high in its top- most lranches. and a small swing tied to a. lower. is lit at this mom- ent by a car that has turned into the driveway. Familiar sounds point out it is none other than the family machine. These also iridi- cate that an animal is being eued gently out of the rack, every pre- caution being taken we know. to insure its safe delivery to the farm.

In the summer. when a day that has not been hot is about spent and evening has commenced to drop its refreshing dews upon pasture and flfaln-IBl'ld.

"Pu'ha.ps they're not out yet!" James would offer. bringing the car to a halt near the buildings. and getting down then to scan the grass-fields and the wood-lands given them for shade and shelter. Then catching sight of them we would stroll in their direction. And knowing James. odd ones would advance to meet us, to lick his hand in greeting or allow

started out fine. We bought nice new furniture and set up house- keeping for ourselves and for the first week we were happy. Then he decided he wanted his mother and couldn't live without her. I thought that he would get over his homeslckneu. but. no matter how hard I try to make things pleasant for him, he still wants to go back to Mother. Any now he says he doesn't love me any more. He only . - ' loves Mother. I told him that if this was the case we had better break up housekeeping and he Could so to his home and I'd go to mine. but he complains that this will make a scandal, and that the only Way out is for him to commit suicide.

He may be better to her than he was to his first wife. He may be kinder. more generous. more considerate. but there is nlways that little uriucknovvledged pang because she wasn't the first choice. and what she is getting is warmed-over love and rehash- ed affections.
