It would take a working family paying taxes and work expenses nearly $7,000 in studyugted7that-earnings would have to go above $8,000 before a working family would realize any "significiant" gain in living standards which means that a welfare recipient would be discouraged from taking a low-pay, long-hour job. This newspaper has vigorously supported welfare reform after careful study at all levels of government. This enlightening study was the first ever to analyze the combined impact of the overlapping programs of local, state, and federal programs. The welfare programs are a mess and a bureaucratic nightmare, and reform is long overdue." shows that the combined benefits going to recipients, of overlapping city, state, and. federal aids "can make it extraordinarily unprofitable to work." So why get off welfare and get a job? It is no wonnder that Rep.

Martha W. Griffiths (D-Mich.) chair-' man of the Joint Economic Committee's fiscal policy subcommittee, has called, for corrective action. She said it, "makes a compelling case for some type of reform," pointing out that "the programs are shot' through with disincentives and inequities."

THOSTESON: Is "IT possible to become addicted to tea? I am 50 and have had few headaches in my time, but the i days I don't drink tea, I get one and just as soon as I drink a cup of tea my headache leaves.

They are not," as so many people have been told, "from something nUhe blood' It may well be that some folks are better supplied with antibodies in the blood which suppress these germs before they get a good start, but that's beside the point. Boils develop from common bacteria on the skin. Let's say that you havea sin-r gle boil to start with.

The boil' represents a battle between" the multiplying germs -and the der fensive forces of the body which sire trying to keep the infection isolated and destroy I- If some of those germs es- and find some other nesting place on the skin, (in a pore, beside a hair root, or in some tiny scratch or abrasion) they may start another boil. These new boils, or infections, do not start instantly. It takes a bit of time. Therefore, the first rule of preventing more boils is to keep germs from spreading to new areas. Keep a dressing on the boil.
