...again from 1955 to 1958. He still takes oral doses of corticosteroids (cortisone-type medication) "frequently, when I have worked hard," although a recent test showed his adrenals to be functioning normally. Whether his is an arrested case of Addison's disease or a borderline adrenal insufficiency is unclear. In two years of almost ceaseless campaigning, Kennedy has displayed remarkable energy and none of the classic symptoms of advanced Addison's disease: chronic fatigue, weight loss, low blood pressure, anemia, or a bronzelike darkening of the skin...
...corrected. Writing in the A.M.A. Journal of a case at Manhattan's Roosevelt Hospital, Drs. Richard L. Golden and Charles A. Bertrand try to avoid the technical designation of "total anomalous pulmonary venous connection." They call the condition simply "snowman heart." Who coined the term is unclear, but it is especially apt. In the X ray, the enlarged, misshapen heart casts a distinctive white shadow shaped like a snowman...
...political patience was exhausted by the extralegal manner in which Segni's minority Christian Democratic government tiptoed out of office.

Since this meant that his government could survive only by accepting Fascist support, Segni resigned without even asking for a vote of confidence...
...steps by which Dr. Jarvis became the apostle of honey and vinegar are unclear. He writes of having observed farm animals cure themselves of illnesses by resting, fasting and eating herbs, but stops short of crediting them with the manufacture of vinegar. Yet he says a dose of vinegar added to a cow's ration guarantees that her calf will be born robust, well furred, and with such inherited smartness that it will take water from a pail without teaching. By extension from animal to human husbandry, Jarvis contends that if a pregnant woman adds honey and vinegar...
...disappointment, a head turned in the crowd and he saw Miss Schroeder. It was certainly her. Even from where he sat he could see her hair net and notice her attentiveness to her neighbour. Miss Schroeder occupied the place next to Lucius in the stacks, and their relationship was unclear, for they had never spoken. But often when she was out he would slip into her alcove and admire her books. And today she was at the game with someone else...
