Aspirin substitutes
are available
By Lawrence E. Lamb, M.D.
DEAR DR LAMB - I have
never been able to take
aspirin. Is there any other
medicine as good to take the
place of aspirin?
DEAR READER - A
medicine should be chosen for
a particular purpose. Aspirin
is useful in both relieving pain
and in decreasing inflamma
tion.
I do not know why you can’t
take aspirin, but accepting
your statement I would
suggest that you avoid any of
the available medicines you
can buy without a prescription
that also contain aspirin. To
give you a list of these I am
sending you The Health Letter
number 8-8, Aspirin and
Related Medicines. Others
who want information about
these medicines can send 50
cents with a long, stamped,
self-addressed envelope for it.
Just send your request to me
in care of this newspaper,
P.O. Box 326, San Antonio, TX
78209.
You can use Tylenol as it
does not contain any
salicylates found in aspirin. It
will be useful in relieving mild
pain. It will not relieve in
flammation. Medicines to
relieve inflammation should
be prescribed by a physician.
The amount of aspirin it takes
for this effect is too much to
take on your own. A physician
may wish to prescribe Motrin.
It also is useful in relieving
pain, but it is no more effec
tive than aspirin treatment in
equivalent amounts.
DEAR DR LAMB - I am
a 16-year-old girl and have an
intimate sexual relationship
with my 17-year-old
boyfriend
I am concerned as to
whether I can become preg
nant if my virginity is not
taken We use the withdrawal
technique. Is there any
possibility that I can conceive
if the hymen is not ruptured?
My boyfriend is confident

Polly’s Pointers
Tackle crayon marks
with toothpaste
By Polly Cramer
Polly’s Problem
DEAR POLLY — Do you or any of the readers know
how to remove colored crayon marks from wood pan
eling? I have tried everything I can think of. but nothing
has worked. — FRAN.
DEAR FRAN — The finish on the wood may have
something to do with the results, but I have just tried us
ing toothpaste on crayon marks on wood with practical
ly no finish (the inside of a drawer) and they rubbed
right off. - POLLY.
DEAR READERS — J.W.’s recent Pointer about putting ex
tra seeds in foil packets in the freezer to keep for the following
year needs a correction. By mistake we printed the letter as
saying "about two-thirds of the seeds will lose their produc
tivity but the rest will produce good as new” when it should
have read that two to three percent would not carry over. That
would be only a few seeds. It certainly would not be worth the
trouble should one lose two-thirds of the seeds. Sorry. Our
apologies, J.W. — POLLY.
DEAR POLLY — To save a little time and some footsteps
while making a bed, mark the center of your sheets, at the top
and bottom with a liquid embroidery pen. Blankets can be
marked with colored thread. By doing this you can see at a
glance the center of a sheet or blanket and know when it is in
the proper position on the bed. Really is timesaving when just
one person is making up a bed.
Washing dishes is not my favorite chore and it seems to take
me so long. I find that if I set my timer for approximately the
time I think it will take me to do them I have an incentive to
hurry Otherwise I take my time and feel resentful all the time
I am doing them. It really gives me a good feeling if I beat the
timer. — MRS. G.D.
DEAR POLLY — When preparing stuffed peppers I cut off
the tops of the peppers and use a serrated grapefruit spoon to
scoop out the seeds and membrane. This works perfectly and
does a neat job.
I also cut off the bottoms of plastic bread wrappers to the
size of small bags and use for sandwiches that go in the lunch
boxes. The top part can also be cut apart and be used to wrap
other things. — V.Z.

that no sperm can inundate
the ovary if the hymen is still
intact. Personally I tend to
believe this too, but I am hav
ing apprehensions. I hope you
can allay my fears.
I don’t want to face the em
barrassment and heartbreak
that an unwanted pregnancy
would bring on my family and
myself.
DEAR READER - First of
all, the withdrawal technique
is one of the least reliable
forms of birth control, and it
is the most commonly used
method in active youngsters
— including those who should
know better.
It only takes one sperm cell
united with an ovum to induce
a pregnancy. A small amount
of sperm at the vaginal open
ing can result in pregnancy
No, the hymen does not
have to be broken for pregnan
cy to occur. This membrane
like structure already has a
hole in it or is torn at the time
a girl begins menstruating
There is no other way for nor
mal menstrual discharge to
occur. The opening that per
mits passage of blood also will
permit passage of sperm
cells.
You might ask yourself why
you and your family would be
embarrassed or have hear
tache if you were to become a
mother. I suspect you will say
that it is because your parents
would not approve of your life
style. I can’t make your
decisions for you, but you
should resolve your feelings
about this before you run the
risk of pregnancy. Your own
responses, your parents’
responses, your partner’s
responses, and what happens
to an unwanted baby are all
things every girl should
carefully consider in deciding
what life style she will choose.
It is better to confront these
basic facts while one still has
a choice rather than after it is
too late.

The Griffin Daily News presents this feature as
entertainment only. The editors do not believe in
predictions based on astrology or the occult.
For Saturday, Jan. 8, 1977
I ARIES (March 21-April 19) This
can be an interesting day,
because you get enjoyment out
of whatever you do. You even
have away of doing your work so
it becomes fun.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
You'll be a lot better off today if
you step back from a project
which has you stymied.
Eliminating the pressure may
give you a fresh approach.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
Others find you dependable to
day and they know things will be
done properly. You can make
many points.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
Because you're not one to
overlook small amounts today,
they'll add up for you. You'll end
up with a sizeable sum. Others
may not.
LEO (July 23-Aufl. 22) Don't
behave in a selfish manner, but
try to direct your efforts so that
you do reap some benefits. You
must look out for No. 1 today.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Be
patient today. The clock is in
your corner. You’ll gain control
over things that seemed to be
slipping away if you're not im
petuous.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) You
know something that would in
terest others in your circle. You'd
be wise to-keep it to yourself.
The information could cause
more harm than good.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22)
Your thoughtfulness delights
people today. You'll remember
to do little things always ap
preciated but often neglected.
I Astro-
iGraph
tßemice Bede Osol
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec.
21) There’s a world of difference
in your outlook today. When you
set out to do something, all the
pieces will fall into place.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jen. 19)
Others rally to your cause today.
You present your case in an in
teresting manner and you firmly
believe in what you say.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19)
When it comes to old-fashioned
horse trading, you’re a tough
customer to beat. Today,
bargaining is fun, and it’s
profitable for you.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20)
Delegate authority at every op
portunity today. There’s no
reason not to, since others will
resent it if you don't let them
help.
>0?
X 8, 1977 U
You've learned some very
valuable lessons in the past and
this year you will put them to
good use. Because of this, the
months ahead could be very
rewarding.

Osol has written a special Astro-
Graph Letter for you. For your
copy send 50 cents and a long
self-addressed, stamped
envelope to Astro-Graph, P.O.
Box 489, Radio City Station, New
