MOLNER, MD, Dear Dr. Molner: Please write about bursitis. I have it in my shoulder. My friends have different .opinions about how it. should be treated. Some Say it can be cured by exercise, some say an operation is neces- Sary, and still others recom- mend shots.--Mrs. G, R. H. Bursitis is inflammation of a fluid-filled sac over: which. the tendons of a joint ride. (Such a sac is called a bursa.), Injury and continued pressure are the usual causes. 'Tennis elbow'? is an example; also '"'house- maid's knee."' Exercise is as it merely place irritated offen permits injections needed not the answer, keeps the tender Rest, however, healing. Various are used when Sometimes excess fluid is withdrawn, Why not let your doctor treat the bursitis, instead of relying on friends, some of whom have given you incorrect advice?

The blast damaged every building in the city and broke windows at Truro, 50 miles away.

C, Let's get over the idea that any laboratory finding is ab- solutely infallible. To be sure, plenty of tests are not to-be doubted. A blood count is low, or high. Or an unwelcome or- ganism is found. Or your tem- pérature is 98.2 or it is 102. You don't doubt these findings Plenty of, other tests show that you are "'a little high," or "a little low,' but they don't mean that halfway in between is "right."' Your thyroid gland have been destroyed. The radio- active iodine reduced its size and overactivity, which in your case was necessary. After that the extract was used to adjust your thyroid activity to what- level is right for you. Tell doctor that' you feel that you are too tense. That's what he wants to know from you. He'll say Well, then, let's try a little less for-a few weeks and see how it, works."' That's the same way of prac- may not ever your tising medicine. No two persons are exactly alike.

Dear Dr, Molner: I have al- ways worn -earrings with no trouble but in the last year or so if.l wear them even for a day my ears itch and turn red. I recently bought both gold and silver ones, and it still hap- pens. What do you think?-- Mis, B. W. It may be "contact derma. titis"--~a skin trouble from con- tact with something or other, in this case various metals. It's a form of allergy. We never--I think I can be that -positive--have an. allergic reaction from our first contact with anything. We have to be "sensitized" first. Once that oc- curs, any subsequent contact promptly causes trouble. Thus some of us have an al- lergy in infancy, or sometimes we don't become "sensitized" until much later. Earrings (and other kinds of jewelry) are a not - uncommon cause of al- lergies developing in adulthood. Changing to a different metal sometimes helps. Sometimes jewelry can be lacquered so the metal 'does not come in direct contact with the skin, which is especially applicable to ear- rings. Pads of foam rubber are also available to protect you from the metal, BY-GONE DAYS 35 YEARS AGO Dec. 6, street, Ontario defeat- ifford Baker, Bruce was elected to the Tuxis Boys' Parliament ing George Kory, Evelyn Pearce. was awarded the first Carter scholarship for the County of Ontario for high- est standing in 10 Upper School examinations.
