f These fears become a phobia
when they get out of proportion
to normal fears, and the person
cannot control them. A person’s
fears can become a phobia even
when there is no logical reason
to have them. Then the phobia
itself becomes a serious medical

Official price lists show that there are
eighteen different models of American
motor cars, produced by five separate auto-
motive manufacturers, which actually cost
more than the lowest-priced Cadillac-

If you find this difficult to believe—then
you’re in good company!
For the record also shows that, during
the past few years, literally hundreds of
thousands of motorists have taken title to
these costlier models. And there can be little

believe that most women who,
consult physicians will at some
time have the dread of cancer.
Imaginary fears of disease can
take various forms. Some people
—not too many—have an unrea-
sonable fear of a special disease,
even though they do not have
the disease or any symptoms of
it. Others fear a whole group
of diseases, as, for example, the
people who will not touch a door-
knob except with a handkerchief
or piece of paper for fear of pick-
ing up germs.
Patient May Misunderstand
Frequently, patients fear dis-
eases because their physician

anesthetic he learned to his hor-
ror that all he had undergone
was an appendectomy.
“I was sure it was an ulcer,"
to relieve it.
The way to protect oneself
against cancer is to learn the
warning signs and have regular
physical examinations. This
alertness is quite different from
a constant, abnormal dread of
disease.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
K. K.: Will the taking of female
hormones cause cancer of the
breast?
Answer: This question is up for
serious medical dispute. How-
ever, most authorities believe
that the taking of female hor-
mones, in the amounts necessary
to control the symptoms of the
menopause, will not cause cancer.

Ulcers are divided into two
classes:
(1) The social, or fake, ulcer.
(2) The true ulcer.
The fake ulcer is by far the
most widespread. It is also the
better type to have, as it requires
little or no medical treatment
and has wonderful social advan-
tages. It is a fine excuse to stay
home from work. If you are at
a party and the host serves poor
liquor, you can get out of drink-

and get $100 ahead, you can
grimace, clutch at your belt,
and mutter: "Ugh, my ulcer.

Ulcers are what you make them.
The ulcer used to be the
Horatio Alger disease. A man
started off life poor, but heal-

and ended up wealthy—but ulcer-
ridden.
An ulcer became a badge of

best thing about a social ulcer—
people have to take your word

that means they have to take

those who have never had the
malady, just as old soldiers like
to show their battle scars to
bug-eyed children.
A veteran victim gave this
description of his afflicition:

the average man ever comes to
