HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Exeter Times-Advocate, 1927-05-12, Page 3The cures for the poison IVy pfagu® urqias all embracing as th© prevalence of the trouble it causes. They range from treatment of the affliction after it appears on the skin to eradication of the plant. On this latter point, •those sensitive to the plant feel strong­ ly and point out that, since the vic- & tims are merely people and not pigs or narcissus bulbs, it will be long before ’we can hope for legislation that makes harboring poison ivy a misdemeanor. If on© is warned beforehand that he will be near ivy, the iron treatment does away with the danger. A five per cent, solution of ferric chloride in fifty per cent, alcohol, dabbled over the face and hands and allowed to dry on, is a complete success when it is used before exposure and almost completely successful if used directly after ex­ posure. A strong solution of ferrous sulphate in water maybe used the same way and is said to retain its chemical properties longer than the first solu­ tion. If iron salts are not available, a good scrubbing with hot (if possible) water and strong yellow soap as soon after exposure as possible will usually mechanically remove all the poison, which penetrates the skin rather slow­ ly. Another preventive is to wash as soon after exposure as possible with a solvent of the resinous tar, such as rubbing alcohol. Some people get good results by allowing a solution of bak­ ing soda to dry on the face, either be­ fore or just after exposure, After Itching starts, it is too late for pre­ ventive measure® to do much good. In severe cases, great relief is given by bathing the inflamed surface with the iron solution and then spraying or painting the surface with melted, not * hot, paraflin. Lay over this a thin sheet of sterile cotton,, and then an­ other layer of paraffin, which is to ex­ tend on to the uninjured sikin an inch to make a tight seal so that no air can get in and no discharge ooze out. ’MAKE CARB OF Stomach disturbances and constipa^ ■ tion an© responsible for much of th© | peevishness of babies and young chlld- i ren, When the baby is cross or irrit- ! able the mother should not resort to so-called soothing mixtures to correct the trouble, for in the majority of cases these mixtures simply drug the child Into an unnatural sleep, What is needed is a gentle laxative that will sweeten the stomaeh and regulate the bowels'. .Such a remedy is found in Baby’s Own Tablets. They ar© ea©y to tali© and guaranteed to be entirely free from opiates' and narcotics. Con­ cerning them, Mrs. Jos. Tousalgnant, Ste. Sophie, Que., writes:—-“I would like all mothers to know that I feel there is no other medicine to equal Baby’s Own Tablets. I always keep a box in the house and their prompt use never fails to restore my little ones to health." . The Tablets ar© sold by medicine dealers or by mail at 25 cts. a box from The Dr. Williams’ Medi­ cine Co., Brookville, Ont.

Outstanding research work­ ers have spent their time and energy In an effort to ascertain the real causes of deday and pyorrhea and to find out how the public can success­ fully combat or correct these condi­ tions. Such Investigation is absolute­ ly essential because so many people ■ are not only suffering from tooth aehe I and the loss of valuable teeth but a number of systematic diseases are1 the result of bad mouth conditions. f It has been discovered that dental diseases are largely due to modern hablto of living and that people In highly civilized countries have mote tooth decay than those less highly favored. It is always difficult to per­ suade the public to live In accordance with natural laws and consequently, some extra protection must be pro­ vided. The research departments of the Dental Faculties of the Universi­ ties and other investigators are con- . vinced of the necessity for and the . value ot this study and the large num- Now packed in Aluminum. “Three” for Real Company "How many make th© ideal company for a real walk, not a stroll? One, of course. But next.to that—well after it, but next—three is th© number. Whether it be the,question of pace, distance, country, conversation, re­ freshment on the way (or merely by the way), three will settle the diffi­ culties, meet the case, more readily than taro,” writes "E. J. F. H.” in the Birmingham Post. "One says that anybody can keep up five miles an hour for four hours; that it is twenty miles to Trotbury by road, and we can lunch there and train back in time for tea. Two says: ‘You try how long you’ll keep up that five miles,’ and, anyhow, he believes in making a day of it. ‘We’ll take sand­ wiches, start early, and go round by Much Morleigh, and find we’ve covered a good thirty without noticing it.’ "But Three says he has no false pride? and fifteen miles is his limit; leave it to him, and he’ll see that you get all-lhe walking, all th© scenery, and a.ll the feeding (since you lay so much '©tress on it) you want.

N°t only does it become thin but Lt is loaded with Impurities—-rheu­ matic poisons. Without the proper treatment these poisons increase, the inflamed joints swell and th© patient becomes a cripple. Most treatments simply alm to keep down toe pain, hence with every ui-favorabl© condi­ tion a renewed attack follows. To cast out rheumatism the blood must be enriched and th© rheumatic poisons driven out with the natural . secretions of the body. This can best be done through a course of Dr. Wil­ liams’ Pink Pills, which have a speci­ fic action on toe blood, giving it new richness and redmns. Thousands hav© tried this treatment with bene­ ficial results. That ©very sufferer from rheumatism who doi-s not try Dr. Wil­ liams’ Pink Pills is neglecting the most hopeful means of recovery is shown by the statement of Mr. David Carroll, Pletou, N.S., who says; -“For years I was troubled with rheumatism. The pains were not continuous, but they ’ ;7rVg?ve7 promise n wnava va. getting Qf many worth-while developments. Too many men in burying the ch eit dig up the hammer. always returned, i worse. I tried so-called electric belts and many medicines, but did not get more than temporary relief. Only those who have suffered from this trou­ ble will realize what I suffered at times. I had begun to dispair of get­ ting better when a friend urged me to try Dr. Williams’ Pink Pilis. I short time I could feel this medicine helping me so I gladly continued tak­ ing the pills and soon found that every trace of the trouble had disappeared and there was a great Improvement in my general health. It is now years since I took Dr. William's’ Pills and I have not had the twinge of th© trouble in that That is why I confidently recommend th© pills to other sufferers.” You can get these Pills from any medicine dealer or by mall at 50c a box from The Dr. Williams’ Medicine Co., Brookville, Ont.

There is a distant air Un© from Van- couver to Halifax and hitherto the radio experts have had difficulty in tra­ versing it by broadcast. Th© feat has been performed at last and the honor of the performance belongs to CNRV, the Vancouver broadcasting station of the Radio Department, Canadian Na­ tional Railways. G. W. Rockwell, 42 Philip Street, Halifax, a member of the Halifax County Radio Association, was the for­ tunate enthusiast. Engaged in a con­ test for "DX” reception, Mr. Rockwell remained up until th© ."wee sma* hours” one night recently and tuned in on CNRV broadcasting a dance or­ chestra when they were playing "In a Little Spanish Town.” It was at 2.20 a.m. o’clock, Atlantic Standard Time, that this occurred, but that was hardly the heel of evening in- Vancouver, where Pacific Time reigns and they called 10.20 p.m. on the log of th© pre­ vious evening. The reception has been verified, and A. R. McEwan, Director of Radio, Canadian National Railways, states that the occasion is the first on which a Canadian broadcasting station has covered the long distance from coast to coast. y 392 mail this coupon r- — | Santa Fe Service Bureau, 404 Transportation J | Bldg., Phone Randolph 8743.

"My case got to bq s!b chronic that the help ran the farm. I was prac­ tically helpless. EVen my wrists and hands would swell up so thatl couldn t write my name.

Chrysler I in The Outlook. “The more I study this whole prob­ lem,” h© writes, "toe more convinced L I am that a major part of the problem [ is an educational one. That this is re-1 cognized is to be found in the fact that; in many of our large cities police of-; ficers ar© going into the schools to j [give blackboard talks to children about! crossing streets at crossings, the i necessity for observing traffic lights, th© dangers of playing in crowded' streets, the folly of ‘Hooking-on-be- hind’ motor cars and trucks and busses and/what not. Having police officers in uniform go into classrooms has its effect. "This practice of having th© police feo into the school's should be encour­ aged. Many cities would do well to adopt the plan. But the work of police must be supplemented by Instruction of the parents in home.” Mr. Chrysler also believes that motorist needs education. He writes: "The motorist loses nothing who gives to the pedestrian the right of way. It is the courteous thing to do. And then one should remember that a pedestrian cannot exchange bumps with a motor car. I have no patience with th© motor­ ist who compels to© pedestrian to run to escape -injury. To be sure, there aB© all kinds of motorists, just as ! there are all kinds- of pe-destrians, but the decent thing to do is to permit the ' pedestrian to walk to the curb or across the street in safety and without hurry.” the th© the til© . ... , Violets,- rose petals, and nastur­ tiums for flavoring salads are among 1 the novelties of French cooking.
