HEALTH AND BEAUTY MARRIAGE LICENSE Tim F. Engle, 927 Dean street, Woodstock, and Margaret A. Nimsgern, 3713 W. St. Paul's avenue, McHenrv. Good living includes a balanced life devoted to work, culture and recreation. One of the leading causes of death in America is heart disease, with statistical fig­ ures revealing that the fatality rate is on the increase. All of the causes for this increase in heart disease are not known, but medical science is de­ voting endless hours and vast sums of money in attempting to find the answers. One of the early findings in patients is a history of early hypertension or high blood pres­ sure resulting from a known or unknown cause. It's most im­ portant that this early onset of hypertension be known and proper treatment he started. The best protection for the in­ dividual is to regularly have a physical examination' by his family physician. Modern medical science now has available many drugs that, when taken by an individual, lower the elevated blood pres­ sure. Some are designed to tranquilize the patient and thereby lessen tension and r e d u c e t h e b l o o d p r e s s u r e . Another group of drugs dilate the blood vessels directly, such as the vessels of the kidney, or indirectly through the nervous system of the body. Other drugs have the unique property referred to as "nerve blocking," and thereby preventing the constriction or narrowing of blood vessels by blocking excessive nervous reactions. A fifth group of drugs available to your physician have a direct effect upon the kidneys, stimulating those or­ gans to excrete excessive salt from the body, this group of drugs deing referred to as diuretics. With such a formidable group of drugs at the disposal of your doctor he now can lower ab­ normally elevated blood pres­ sure and thereby reduce damage to the cardiac muscle. ymc miaeaMmcwMKm. aaeore: :*»g SALE &to50 % Reductions! if Dress Fabrics • Drapery Fabrics • Upholstery Fabrics if Ready Made Draperies Havemeyer's 1008 E.
