MANY TITLES TO CHOOSE FROM because of his snoring had more than 500 replies in a week to his advertised pica for a cure. Suggest ions ranged from repeating "I shall not snore" a hundred limes before bed to eating several small onions at bedtime and drinking goat's milk between meals. Happily, divorce is not lo only solution lo this embarrassing social problem. Some specialists have recently begun injecting a special "stiffening solution" into patients' throats.

This tightens those slack PFPs and prevents them flapping around like tent-flics in your sleep. But, as the most common cause of snoring is an obstruction in nose or throat, a minor operation will often solve the problem. A bit of loose cartilage may be causing alt the trouble, Or it could be a deviated septuman abnormality or crook- dropping off to sleep in public and making a fool of himself. His wife, or whoever happens to be on the receiving end, strains eyery nerve waiting for the awful racket to start. But this itidelicyte art is by no deans confined to men.

In fact, a Japanese doctor who has studied snoring all over the world recently stated that women snorers outnumber men by two to cue. It's no wonder, then, that snoring causes so many domestic crises. In the U.S., for instance, it almost qualifies as a national problem. Coming under the heading "mental cruelty," it is listed as one of the complaints in 17 per cent of all U.S. divorce cases.

Posterior faucial pillars lor l'FPs is another name or the soft flaps tn the back of the throat. When they relax, the air you breath makes them flap.

The result can be anything from a sott whistling sound to passable impression of the -Tltundcr and Lightning Polka." Both suorer and listener suffer, often from mere anticipation of the noise. The offender lives in fear of edness in the bridge of the ijose. Boxers and football players especially are troubled by this complaint. An operation, besides curing their snoring, will often reduce the number and severity of colds. The other principal offend-jus object is the uvula, that flesy lobe hanging down inside the throat.

Some of these are naturally outsize. A few develop growths; many expand under regular and excessive lubrication with alcohol. Snipping off the uvula is a simple bit of surgery. In a few instances the only effect has been to make the snore a little higher in pitch, but in the vast majority of eases it has cured the Irouble and given patients a fresh lease on life. Snoring children are unusual but not unique.

Generally, though, the trouble proves to be a little deeper- seated than slack PFPs.

The snoring results from the tense throat muscles suddenly relaxing in slocp and vibrating as breathing becomes heavier. The remedy is to relax gradually before bed. Take a warm bath, read book, or try the British Medical Association's specially recommended pre-sleep exercise.

Devised after months of tests with chronic snorers, it involves gripping a toothbrush or pencil between the teeth igums if you have nonet for about 10 minutes. This helps to tighten the muscles that hold the mouth closed. The other solution is to prevent snorers sleeping on their backs. If they can.be kept on their side, the chances of them performing their nightly rendition is considerably' reduced. This has led to hundreds of anti snoring gadgets being invented, mostly by exasperated spouses.

They range from a "squeak ball," sewn in the pyjamas to waken the snorer if he rolls on to his back, to the "wrist-binder" a leather thong which keeps one arm locked to the bedpost so the snorer cannot turn over.
