I hope the good, old family physician will never disappear from the earth. We need him now. just as our parents and our grandparents him. I wish everybody could come to know what doctors are for. You shouldn't run to the doctor with every foojlsh little ache and pain.

TTour own common sense and with serf should teach you that of these symptoms are tte 'result of your own lndiscretlorS. know why you have them, how to avoid them, and that they will disappear in a few hours. You should know enough about your body and how to care for it, to escape the frequent need of seeing a doctor. Don't wear your- doctor out by i pestering him with needless tele-i phone calls and the demand for mld-! rright visits. Use your brains, Many calls made upon the doctor 'are impulsive acts.

I have told you lof the old lady Who 'phoned the I doctor at 2 a. begging htm to come at once. "I can't bear this pain another minute," she said. "How long have you had it?" Jn- quired the kind doctor. "Twenty-j seven years." was the amazing reply! Really, the suffering woman i might have waited till daylight.

But there are just as many times when the doctor Is reatty needed jand is not called. I urge you to take no chance with disease Or with symptoms which persist and can-not be explained. You should not yourself to worry or the disease to run past the curable stage, isimpfy because your family doctor neglected. The doctor is your friend and should be your counsellor and guide. To have at your disposal a man like the Cincinnati doctor 1 have described is worth everything to 'your peace of mind and to the welfare of your HELP WASTED "I am very nervous, I want a nice, quiet maid.
