wall. The gall bladder is a hollow
sac about the size and shape of a
small pear with the big end up.
It lies Just under the lower ribs on
the right side and about three
Inches to the right of the center
line. At its small end there is a
short, crooked tube about two
inches long called the cystic duct.
This joins with the hepatic duct
descending from the liver and
these together form the common
duct which empties into the duo-
denum or upper portion of the
small intestine. „
There must be some disease or
obstruction of the gall bladder to
cause stones to form. Germs
floating In th* Wood stream from
diseased sinuses, tonsils, the ap-
pendix or other blood stream in-
fections are frequent causes. Ty-

They are more frequent in womer

Symptoms of gall stones an !

first complaint is a feeling of in- [
digestion. Most of these patient: i

To most patients their Indiges- |

They have an erratic appetite j

right side and the patient takes a
deep breath or coughs, they will
feel an acute pain.
An X-ray picture of the gall
bladder will disclose stones in
about 80 per cent of the cases
Soft stones may not show. The
acute attacks of pain arc caused
by a gall stone becoming caught
in the small tube leading from
the gall bladder to the duodenum.
The pain is felt in the pit of the
stomach and up under the right
shoulder blade. Sick stomach and
vomiting mnv follow: chills and
fever may accompany the attack

they promise in their advertisements,
and what they deliver in their merchandise, are
right there for all to see.
If they deliver what they promise, they make
friends and steady customers. If not they make
enemies, lose patronage and finally go out of
business.
Those are the cold, hard reasons why honesty
is the best policy—especially in advertising.
But the real fact is that advertisers a a class
are humanly jealous of their good names. The
trade-marks of manufacturers and the published
recommendations of merchants are only ac-
corded to products which they can offer you
with confidence and pride.
You can trust the ads to lead you to sound
values.
