DOROTHY DIX. I)EAR MISS DIX: I have ah y heart because my husband has no thought for anything else but fishing.

These things require time to develop. I do not believe enlarged, dilated, atrophied or swollen veins are more frequent today than they were in for- mer days. On the contrary, I believe this varicose condftion is less prevalent among women now than it has ever been before, and certainly it is not more frequent among men. in- veins, In most cases varicose velns cause no particular discomfort or disability, at least in the earlier stage, and there- fore most subjects of the condition would not complain of it if they could hide their legs from view.

Experience does not bear out the cor- respondent’s belief that varicose veins occur only or mainly among the poor and not among the well-to-do. I can cite no actual dats or tabulations, but 1 know there is little if any difference between the susceptil of the rich and of the poor to varicose veins.
