SPECTACLES AND SKIN
CANCER
By Dr. W. J. Scholes
In an article in the Journal of the
American Medical Association, Dr.
John J. Morton of New Haven, Con-
necticut, calls attention to the menace
of poorly fitting spectacles on elderly
people. He cites a number of cases
in which skin cancer has occurred
where the frame of . the 'spectacles
produced' irritation of the skin.
The bridge of the nose, the sides•
of it, temples and behind the ears are
the places where the spectacles are
likely to irritate. These are some of
the places where skin cancer often
occurs in elderly people.
The specific cause of cancer, if
there is such a thing, is not known.1
So we, do not know what to avoid' int
this respect in order to prevent can-
cer. But it is generally accepted that
•-� taract is taken off?,,
cectain things favor - the occurrence
of cancer, These are old age and ir-
ritation of tissues.
Can Be Avoided
Irritation of tissues is something
that can frequently be avoided. And
the avoidance of anything that may
have some part in the causation of
cancer is worth while... .'
Here is one case in which irritation
of the skin in the elderly could and
should ' be avoided. Dr. . Morton
points out the necessity of reporting
to the oculist any tendency . of the
spectacle frame to cause irritation be-
cause of imperfect adjustment,
When spots, pimple -like formations,
or sores have already .occurred, they
should receive prolnpt attention. Ev-
en though these are cancerbus they
can often `be .cured if promptly and
properly treated. Of course, the cau-
se of the irritation must also b
e re-
moved,,
•While skin cancer of the face is
not one of the most common human
ailments, every possible effort should
be made to avoid it! .•
Questions and Answers
Ice Cream
Mrs. H. M. asks: "Is Ice Crean:
nourishing? Is it bad to eat very
much of it? Is it all right for chil-
dren.? Is it fattening?”
Reply
1. Yes, Ice Cream is nourishing.
a .Too much of -it may give you
too much carbo -hydrate. Too much
carbo -hydrate may not be good for
he digestion, may cause . the accumu-
ation of fat, and may encourage any
tendency to diabetes.
3. Yes, in moderate amounts. But
it should not be given in such quan-
tities that it spoils the appetite for
other necessary Foods.
4. Yes.'
Cataract
B. writes:- "I have a`catarac
on one of ` my eyes and a beginnin
of one.. on. the other: I went to an
eye doctor to -have it taken off but h
said that I should wait for it to ma
ture. Why is it -best to wait? I ca
not see so very good now. How
long will'I have to wait? Will th
eyesight be much better after the ca

Better Tepid
M. A. E. writes. "I take .a hot bath
almost every clay. I have been told
that this is not good for me as so
many hot baths are weakening, Is
it possible to take too many hot
baths? I like to keep clean,"
Reply
Cleanliness is not only a virtue. It
is .,one .of the rules of hygiene. But
it would probably be better to take
tepid baths, That is, have the water
but very little warmer than the body
temperature; or just about the same
temperature as the body,
Iodized Table Salt
Mrs. S. C. writes: "The table salt.
that we have been using is marked.
`iodized,' At the store where we buy
it 3 was told that 'it was made that
way fps goiter. Will .using that kind
of salt do any harm to people who
have no goiter?" J
Reply l
No. It is used for the puropse of 1
supplying the necessary amount of
iodin in the diet so that goiter will be
prevented,
(Note: -Dr. Scholes will answer
such health questions in these col-
umns as will be of interest to others
and permissible in public print, Per-
sonal questions- will be answerers on-
ly when accompanied, by self-address-
ed stamped' envelope. Address Dr.
W. J. Scholes, in care of this paper.)

PRINTERS' COPY MUST BE
KEPT
The Canadian Criminal Code has
been revised to compel printers to
keep a copy of everything printed by
then: for of least six months follow-
ing the printing 'and also to record in
a book' the name of the person who
ordered such printing.
Thus it is aimed to stop the publica-
tion of defamatory election pamphlets
which, as a rule, appear the day be-
fore an election, and spread what are
popularly known .as `roorbachs,'
It has been in the past impossible
to trace such pamphlets to their
source, because the printer always
claimed that either they did not print
them or else they did .not know the
parties who ordered and paid for
them. Now no printer dare take an
order for printing without knowing
the party who gives : the order.—Han-
over Post.
A LESSON FOR BUSINESS MEN
The shortest thing in the world
isn't a mosquito's eyelash or a gnat's
whisker, or any other part of an in-
sect's anatomy whatever—it is the
memory of the 'public.
If you don't think so, ask the first
dozen men you meet the following
questions:—
On what date was Lord Kitchener
t drowned? What was the name of
g the ship that blew up and' almost
wiped out the city of Halifax? What
e German submarine torpedoed the
_ Liusitania?
n' It is a safe bet that you will not get
one correct answer.
e Now, do you see the necessity of
persistent advertising? When the
details of events of world-wide im-
portance are so soon forgotten, how
do you expect the public to remember
your prices and lines unless. you tell
them and keep on telling them?
ADVERTISE!

Reply
i. A cleaner and better job can be
d'one after the cataract has matured,
2, It takes ill the way from one
to three or more years for a catar-
act to niature.
3.... Provided there is no complicat-
irg disease of other structures of the
eye, as the retina or optic nerve,
your sight should, be very much im�A
proved -after the operation.
See the oculist occasionally so that
he can exmine your eyes. Hg., will
tell you when the proper time conies
to have the cataract removed.
They Are Good For You
J. E. T. asks: "Is it good for a fel-
low ow with chronic rheumatism of the
joints to eat oranges? Or will they
make the rheumatism worse?"
Reply
If anything, they are good for you,
No, they will not make the rheurna
tism worse. Have you any infections
around the teeth or in the tonsils?
