Lamb, M.D. DEAR DR. LAMB - I received a letter from my brother, age 62, who lives in the Soviet Union. He was hospitalized for 35 days in an emergency hospital. It was determined that he had lung trouble in his right lung. It was filling with fluid which was removed. He was sent home and stayed in bed for 10 days and then went back to work as a teacher. He continues to have pain in his right side. When he comes home from school he goes straight to bed. It was diagnosed as “wet plevrite.” He was told the only cure was medicine which is available in the United States. My family doctor gave me a prescription for isoniazid. Since it is not permitted to send medicine to the Soviet Union, I found a friend who is going for a visit there and will deliver it for me. What is the cause and what is the cure? There has never been this type of illness in our family. My father died at the age of 90 and my uncle is still living in the old country at the age of 88. I’d appreciate it if you would answer my ques tion as I am very concerned about my brother. DEAR READER - The term “wet plevrite” is not used in this country, but I assume from your description it must be wet pleurisy. This means an accumulation of fluid in the chest cavity sur rounding the right lung. Fluid in that location or on the left side can be withdrawn with a needle which I presume is what you mean by being pull ed out. Fluid in the chest cavity may be caused by many different disorders including heart disease and even cancer of the lung. It can be associated with pleurisy —inflammation of the linings r By Polly Cramei Polly’s Pointers Reader query on quilting frames T Polly’s Problem DEAR POLLY — Both my mother and I would like to know how to build a quilting frame and thought some of the senior citizen readers might be able to help us. — BARBARA. DEAR BARBARA — I am sure other readers would also be interested in knowing this since quilting is now so popular. How about it, readers? — POLLY. DEAR POLLY — My Pet Peeve concerns grocery carts in the supermarkets. Many times I see shoppers park their carts in the middle of an aisle. Then they stand to one side while tak ing their purchases off the shelf. No one can get by them. It would be so helpful to grocery shoppers, some of whom are in a hurry, if carts were parked on only one side of the aisle. Thanks for listening. — MRS. R.H.C. DEAR POLLY — I find that spray starch works wonders for removing creases from polyester materials which are left when a dress is lengthened. You may have to repeat the process. Too much spray starch will cling to your iron but it is easily removed with a damp cloth. — BESSIE. DEAR POLLY — I was once “done in” by a little boy who whipped a marking pen out of his pocket during Sunday School and marked my wool dress. The ink was permanent, but turn ed out to be soluble in alcohol. Maybe Wendy will find this a help with her daughter’s dress. — LOIS. DEAR LOIS and other readers — Do test the effect of the alcohol first. It causes some colors to run, and do not use it on acetate. — POLLY. DEAR POLLY — Recently I made a discovery that I think will be of interest to other homemakers. When washing tile floors, and you wish to remove the wax, put a cup of washing (not baking) soda in a quart of hot water to dissolve it. Let stand for five minutes. This is easier than using any stripper I have ever tried and the floor is whiter. It is also economical. Even a large box of washing soda is still quite inexpensive. — FLO. DEAR POLLY — If you want an attractive picture frame in a hurry, use any kind of wood trim such as chair rail molding, etc. Mitre the corners and glue or nail together. Rub the raw wood with regular chalk and polish with a wax type brown shoe polish and shine. No waiting for varnish and stain to dry and the frame has a slightly antiqued look. — MRS. R.V. Polly will send you one of her “peachy” thank-you cards, ideal for framing or placing in your family scrapbook, if she uses your favorite Pointer, Peeve or Problem in her column.

I do not recom mend taking it without close supervision of a doctor. It won’t cure anything but tuber culosis and that could be the cause of your brother’s il lness. If so, he would again need careful supervision, not only for the isoniazid treat ment but also of his progress in overcoming the disease. My guess is that your brother does not have tuberculosis. If he did I am sure the doctors in the Soviet Union would have treated him quite differently. The soreness is no doubt from the pleurisy reaction and pleuritic pain is associated with muscle spasms involving the small muscles between the ribs. Binding the chest sometimes gives relief by preventing movement of the muscles. Heat applications may also help. The proper treatment, however, depends entirely upon what the un derlying cause of fluid in the chest really is. I am skeptical that there are any medicines we have here that are not available in the Soviet Union. Remember, the Soviet doctors can get medical information and medicines from most coun tries in the world and we have a fairly free flow of medical information worldwide. To give you a better idea of how the lungs work I am sen ding you The Health Letter number 2-4, Keeping Your Lungs Fit. Others who want this information can send 50 cents with a long, stamped, self-addressed envelope for it. Just send your letter to me in care of this newspaper, P.O. Box 1551, Radio City Station, New York, NY 10019. And, I hope your brother improves. (NEWSPAPER ENTERPRISE ASSN ) FRANK AND ERNEST by Bob T|K , yei supplies — - Bunno mt ernie ... it For a Flea.
