PERNICIOUS anemia is longer pernicious. I suppose hfid beucj- begin calling it' disor.ii'.n anemia Thomas Ad- dlson who first described it. have before the report on SO living cases of pernicious anemia. Nearly one-fourth of the entire number have beer, kept alive for ten years or more. When it is remembered that it was only IS years ago that the modern method of cure oC tho disease, by liver and Jivcr extract, was announced, and some these patients have been kept alive ever since, we see how remarkable and significant is this report.

Be-fore the modern treatment the best hope we could hold out Cor Che average cuse was a life expectancy of about five years. Its lies -in the, fact that this record proves the liver treatment has established itself as a tried and true remedy. So many of- tho cures and treatments we hear about are fly-by-night affairs. Somebody proposes them, and they gei, a groat bally-hoo. They are miracles, they are wonder-workers, they will cure anything.

Than before you kr.ow it they disappear and nothing is heard of them again. Nocrl of Clinical Observation We have just gone through that first stupe with the sulfa drug's and we aro'istarting to go through it with- penicillin. I do not say thnt these arc not valuable drugs: they are. but it is certain that the extent of their usefulness will be seen to be loss in tho future, after they have been tested in tho cold white flame of clinical experience, than is thought or claimed for them now. But the use of liver or liver extract in anemia is a method that has gone through the flame.

It is IS years old nou We know jt wasn't a flash in the pan. It is old enough to go to war. It is classified 1 A. There is another significance to such a record. Pernicious anemia- is one of tho diseases of middle or old age that wo can overcome.

The ages of the patients in this scries reported from the Milwaukee County Hospital is arresting. There were no patients in the.age I group 20 to 29 years and only one in the age group 30 to 39, and only four from 40 to There were IS from CO to 59. 33 from 60 to and 22 from 70 to 79. It is distinctly a disease of tho ages between 50 and 70, i Symptoms ot Pernicious Anc-min My readers who arc always asking me how to turn their gray hair back to normal will be. interested to know that over half the patients were gray before '10 years of age, and, in one case, hair was restored to its original brown by the treatment.

So I can say that the only treatment of gray hair known to me Is to cat liver once a day. At least it is harmless, It well for people over fifty years of -age to know what the symptoms of Addisonian anemia are. Fatigue and weakness were present in 75 per cent of cases as the earliest This connected with spells 'of. about six weeks duration when the skin- turns lemon color, and then the complexion spontaneously returns to normal, with persistent sore tongue (57 per cent of Cases), tingling of the hands and fingers WASHINGTON By ESSARY (Central Press Columnist) Political Campaigns And Political Are Plenty Parties Must Expensive Foot That 'Bill WASHINGTON Expense accounts are always full or "quips and cranks and wanton wiles." Expense accounts are tricky. The most exquisitely honest person when turned with an expense account goes slightly spotty in his otherwise pure soul and "Seems odd that I can't manage to get in a few extra parties or present or two.

Such, dear voters, is not always the case with the holder of the campaign expense account. Particularly the account, the vast, extraordinarily vast expense account, allowed the candidates for the White This account is called the presidential campaign fund, It is limited, oiiiciallv. to a paltry i $3.000,000. I Before Carl, A.

Hatch, United senator from Now Mexico, began to inquire closely into contributions to campaign funds, the sky was the limit to offerings to any campaign fund for chief executive After Senator Hatch got to thinking out loud In the Senate about where campaign contributions come from and where they go. he got the Hatch act organized and propped it up ir. the campaign circus as the stiffcst hurdle any campaigner had had to jump since misled citixcns-began running for public I won't go into tho details of the Hatch act. It is pleasant ar.d appropriate xo know since its purpose is political purity, that its author came from a little mountain town frngrantly culled Clovis. Tt is also soothing to the reformer who has not yet seen the light, to realize that every expense incurred by a am talking now about pei 1 cent), and disturbances of gait (-11 per cent) should send the man or woman of fifty or more to a doctor for a blood count.

Particularly striking is that there is seldom any weight loss: the ghastly complexion makes you think instinctively here is a very sick man, and on, investigation it is found he has only a fifth as much blood as he should, yet the weight remains tho same. The best thing about the liver treatment of anemia is that it doesn't make any difference how you takn it. It works by mouth in any way, or raw chopped up ar.d served in ice as a cocktail, or in tablets, so long as you take some every dav. Or you can have a hypoclermir of it once a month. QUESTIONS AXD ANSWERS H.

What are the symptom's of stone in the bladder? -What causes, this trouble? Is there any cure or treatment except operation Answer: Symptoms: A large number give no symptoms. Others cause pain, stoppage of urination and blood and pus in the urine. The causes are elderly men prostrate enlargement, in women prolapse of the bladder as an old seque.1 of childbirth, children the cause is not known. For complete cure the stone can often be crushed ar.d washed out through a systoscopc, sometimes with urinary sedatives it gives no (71 per cent), loss of appetite (59 trouble for many years. the expenses of a candidate for the White be sworn to and submitted by both the Democratic and Republican national committees every three months to the Senate committee on campaign expenditures.

The proper name of this important committee is "privileges and election commit- teo" of which Senator Theodore Grenn is now chairman. Vet, try as the Senate committee and similar conscientious committees do, to obey the law and the letter of the law. there are means of "getting around the Hatch act." For example," under the act, $5,000 is the limit for any contribution to a presidential campaign fund. there is a record of one gentleman who gave .55,000 in eight states to the campaign fund of the same presidential candidate. This made in all.

Under the federal corrupt practices act no corporation is permit- led to give to a presidential campaign fund. same old president- or any other officer of any corporation may send his persona! check to cither national committee, Once this is done, there are only repeating what people tell maneuvering tho corpora- tnio into a position to reimburse the check writer. Seems to me that $3,000,000 is something ot a sum. even in the Roosevelthian era, to spend on the task electing a citizen "without whose guiding hand this nation and all other nations must perish from the earth." "Three million dollars: Why that's nothing at all!" a knowing public servant told me, "Think of the cost of radio time! Those rational hookups are simply terrific!" So are the special trains. And the hand-out to little towns who want to stage a meeting and can't afford to pay the expenses of a speaker or the expenses of getting p.irnders, or literature.

I find thnt. the cost ot "literature" is appalling. Almost as much ns stamps, Why you can't conceive what stamps cost in a national campaign! I almost neglected that little advantage possessed by any president in olHcc when he wants to make a campaign trip. Ho can call the trip by a sweeter inspection trip. Calvin Coolidge -'and Herbert Hoover visited practically every hamlet ar.d farm in the U.

S. A. 'inspection" trips. "And just the other day President Roosevelt went on that naval in the South Pacific where the soldier vote grows." Sic semper expense, accounts; They're all alike. There's an overcoat 'concealed in every one of them.
