NON-DANGEROFS HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE

TYPE OF

If you are of middle age and ask your family physician about what should be you-r normal blood pres- sure. he likely would tell you about l35 systolic (that. is when it is being pumped out of the heart) and about 90 diastolic iwhen heart. is receiving bloodt, If asked ivhat. would be con- sidered high blood pressure, you would be told that, 180 systolic and 100 diastolic would be high blood pressure.

While having high blood pressure is considered serious because it often ls the forerunner of heart stroke (coronary thrombosis) and brain stroke (apoplexy). it. is grat- ifying to know that high blood presure appears not to be danger- ous in many case-s.

In the “New England Journal of Medicine,” Boston, Dr. A. M. Burg- ess points out that there are two kinds of high blood pressure — one the dangerous or malignant type. and the other the non-progressive or non-dangerous type.

With the view of ﬁnding out just what. happens in this slow or non- progressive type of high blood pres- sure, Dr. Burgess’ patients were chosen in whom high blood pres- sure had existed for at: least eight years. In a group of 100 patients reported, s systolic pressure of 180 or n. diastolic pressure of 100 was considered high or excessive blood pressure.

It was fouind that high blood piresure-even of an excessive de- gree mat has been present eight years or more and where there is no heart or kidney disease present,- usually does not show a. poor pro- 1 grass. The patients life span is nearly as long (perhaps three years less) than if his blood pires- sure were normal. This type of blood pressure "does not usually de- velop into the malignant or dan- gerous type-—i.hat ls, where there are eye changes. Swelling of the feet or damage to kidneys. These are the symptoms present, in the malignant type.

The suggestion. then, is that where the high blood pressure is oi the slow or unprogressive tyne. there

CHAPTER I

Champ Fields, managing editor and part owner of the Westhaven Clarion, was in a temper and he wanted the world to take notice. It was part of Barbara West's job to bear with the chief's tantrums. The Clarion was not a metropoli- tan newspaper. It; was pretty small-townish in many ways. Bar- bara covered several unimportant departments on the sheet and also acted as secretary to the managing editor when necessary. Bending over her typewriter. she attempted to act as if she did not hear his roars upon this occasion although they revel-berated through the building.

"I have a limit,” he announced with great bitterness. “and Tony Blake has reached it." _

He glared at Barbara. She was a daughter of a newspaper man and Champ Fields had given hex her ‘first job. He had in his gruff way taken her under his wing af- ter her father's death.

"I realize I've said that before about Tony," he acknowledged, “but this time I mean it."

“Yes, Mr. Fields," murmured Barbara. She was afraid he did mean it. Her hand trembledsiight- !y as she inserted a fresh sheet. of paper in her machine. If only Tony weren't so irresponsible, she thought, or if he were less lovable. But Tony was both irresponsible (Continued 0n P886 3)

I am s man in my thirties, seriously thinking about getting married, but the woman I marry must have the following No lulky, sourpuss nor gold-digger need apply.

ANSWER: Such a wife would certainly be u lonely bachelor's answer to a prayer, but where would a chap go to find a woman who was s concatenation of all the charms and virtues? Many women could quali- fy on one line of attractions. There is a fair supply of good cooks. and are able to pay their own dress-picking bills.

Any man with matrimonial intentions can easily find a mate if he is satisfied with a one-talent wife. However, if he demands that his spouse shall be a perfectionist who excels in everything. he is doomed to bitter disappointment, for there just isn't any such animal. ‘

And if there were, no man could stand her. of living with a woman who was beautiful and brilliant and intelligent and domestic and the glass of fashion and the mold of form. It would drive even a prohibitionist to drink and make any husband think long-
