Anyone who suffers attacks of asthma. and those who have seen patients undergoing an attack. know how near to collapse many patients appear to be. Yet. asifew if any patients die during an at- tack. many of us do not consider asthma in serious disease. -Much of the. worry to patients and physicians disappeared when it was found that most cases of asthma appeared to be caused by one oi two conditions, namely al- lergy-heing sensitive to various substances-and nose and throat defects. patient and physician did not look further for the cause and used injections of adrenalin tepid- ephrine) during and to prevent, attacks. However. some months ago we referred to other conditions that were factors. or possible factors. in causing asthmatic attacks. and stated that where the asthma oc- curred before the age of forty it was due to something outside the body, iextrinsic) usually allergy. whereas if it occurred after the ag.e of forty it was due to something inside the body. something within the patient. in his makeup or per- sor.-:ilitv (intrinsic).

Irwin. Inti'ir.'sic asthma develops only in patients who are predisposed. who have inherited the asthmatic state. In such people somatic ibody) factors such as infections of bronchial tubes and lungs or focal infections. the menopause. or merely chronic fatigue with loss of weight. are the cause. In others. psychic (emotional) factors seem to explain the asthmatic attacks. Mixed causes are almost the rule. With the above two types and causes of asthma. what is the ireatmeni'.' These physicians of the Massa- chusetts General Hospital state that he treatment of asthma has two parts - relief of the acute attack and basic or underlying cause. "Many patients are frightened hy their asthma. Confidence must be restored. Each must learn how to control his asthma and not let asthma control him." The tr:-atment during an attack is 10 to 13 minims (drops) of ad- iatwavs RINSE- AND YIDE eives ME CLEANER owri-ies THAN ANY SOAP ware briskly, and wipe dry.

Q. when you are a member of a little group of friends. and sci.ne- one begins a story you have al- ready heard. is it proper to inter- ieot. "I've heard that one before"? A.
