Show The Salt Lake Tribune March Thursday. 15. 1984 A 17 Pantyhose with strong elastic may constrict veins Dear Heloise: Just read a suggestion from one of your readers that expectant mothers could wear thigh-hig- h hose that stay up by themselves. The best hose for pregnant1 women are pan-tyho- se with a ma- - M ternity panel or socks. Many women first get varicose veins when they are pregnant and this is also a time of greater risk for blood clots in the veins of the legs. The reason is the increased pressure on the veins from the reproductive organs. Hose with a strong elastic band may constrict the veins and make the problem worse. strongly recommend that pregnant women sit down for 20 to 30 minutes, three or four times a day, and raise their legs so their ankles are at heart level or higher and give those veins a break. This will help prevent problems that could make the rest of their lives miserable. Woman Surgeon, South Dakota We do appreciate your informing us of the danger of wearing restrictive clothing when pregnant. Also, dear friends, you should check with your doctors before performing any exercises. You dont want to take any chances during this Heloise special time.

Dear Heloise: Could you please give me the procedure for making ordinary printed pictures look more like oil paintings? For one of our projects, my Cub Scout den would like to do this with some magazine pictures we have. A Den Mother Just stretch a piece of our favorite little helper, nylon net, over the picture (any printed picture) and hold it firmly. I tape the corners of the net to keep it flat. Brush on a very light coat of shellac. Carefully remove the net and let the picture dry. It should give the same appear needed a soap dish, but kept forgetting to buy one. So one day I made do with the little saucer from an old clay flower pot. 1 found it works great because the clay absorbs water. You can even paint it, around the outside rim only, and make designs on it. Don't paint the whole thing or S.G. it wont absorb water. I Heloise: a have great hint Dear for perfectly round hamburgers. First, I take the plastic lid from an eight-ounc- e tub of margarine. Shape the meat in a round ball and press it on the inside of the lid. Presto! Round hamburger patties. Then, I put them in plastic freezer bags and freeze them separately. -- 1 add brandy or bourbon, or any flavoring 1 like. This also keeps the raisins soft and moist. Cary H. Linda Ridarsky Dear Heloise: My son recently took a trip packed with exciting activities and there was limited time for writing. I mailing labels for him by cutting the large, white labels down to postcard size and addressing them to friends he wanted to write to while away.

My mother and both my grandmothers lived to their 90s, but my father died when he was 70 and both my grandfathers died in their 60s. Where does that leave me? John. Easton, Pa. Dear John: If the results of a Swedish study are confirmed, it leaves you in pretty good shape. Dr. Lennart Welin, of the University of Goteborg, has reported that the life span of men is at least partly related to the life span of their mothers.

I am glad that you are still around to be able to write to me, but I must tell you that the risk factors for coronary heart disease are the same at 60 as they were at 50. You may thumb your nose at your physician's warning and still beat the odds, but prudence and common sense suggest a different course of action. Dear Dr. Solomon: My doctor has told me to stay away from certain foods because I have gout, and he says that gout is a form of arthritis. Can you give me a little more specific information? Clyde, Oakland, that the older their mothers were at the time they died, the lower the death rate among the men. No such association was found with their fathers age at the time of death. This does not mean that men whose mothers died at an advanced age need not follow sound principles of good health. An showed increased death rate was also found to be associated with blood pressure, smoking, alcoholism kxw. and high choles- terol levels. Dear Dr. Solo- mon: When I was 50 my doctor kept Dr. Solomon telling me to stop to watch my diet, or I smoking and might have a heart attack. Now its 10 years later and Im still smoking and I still dont watch my diet and I still havent had a heart attack. What I would like to know is if, in my case, you still consider smoking and Tony, dieting to be important. Calif. Dear Clyde: Gout involves the accumulation of an excessive amount of uric acid in the body. Ordinarily, uric acid circulates in the blood until it is eliminated in the urine. In gout, however, the uric acid in the body builds up, either because too much is being produced or because too little is eliminated. The pain that is associated with gout results when uric acid crystals lodge in a joint, causing inflammation. N.Y.

Can my neighMrs. N.U., Tolebor be mistaken? prescription drugs are careless when it comes to using preparations. The fact is that these preparations, too. can be the cause of adverse side effects. do, Ohio Dear Mrs. U.: Rickets is extremely rare but it does occur. Credit for its almost complete elimination must go in large measure to the discovery of vitamin D and to its addition to milk and infant formulas. Rickets still occurs in rare instances in children with an inherited disorder that prevents them from properly using either calcium or vitamin D. In addition, according to Dr. Herbert M. Swick, of the Medical College of Wisconsin in Milwaukee, the children of strict vegetarians, especially children who get little or no sunshine, are at risk for the development of rickets. The disorder can be cured in babies but cannot be completely corrected in older children.
