“I am almost afraid to have this
baby.” Here are these words in the
Expectant Mother's letter and we
must attend to them.
, Tell the people. But there has been
so much about Maternal Mortality in
the newspapers and magazines that
no wonder the mothers are afraid.
They are afraid because they only
get hold of a general indefinite idea
that a great many mothers die at the
time of child-birth. Now this is not
true. All‘ good Doctors know that
Mothers should not die at that time,
and if only the Mother goes to the
Doctor in time, as soon as she thinks
perhaps she is going to be a mother,
and keeps on going to see the Doctor
regularly, and does what he tells her,
generally speaking, she is safe. Pre
natal care is the greatest safeguard
we have. Last century (and it is the
same now) Doctors used to feel that
they ought to have at least One
Thousand maternity cases without
losing one Mother ancl a great many
of them succeeded in making this
good record both then and now. And
they make better records now. Our
National Record ought to be better
and we are all trying to make it bet
ter and now we have a New Idea
about how to make it better.
The greatest single cause of Mat
ernal Mortality is what used to be
called Child-bed fever or Puerperal
Fever of Puerperal Sepsis. In Can
ada it causes about one-third, or more
of all our Maternal Mortality. But,
remember, very few mothers' have it
or any other trouble at the time of
the birth of the baby.
In 1931, Dr. J. Smith of Aberdeen
City Hospital Laboratory made a
study of 21 cases of Puerperal Fever
and was able to find theCgerms which
caused the fever in 18 of these cases.
He also found out where these dead
ly germs came from. Most of them
were the common germs that are
found in common colds.
In a few cases he ’found that the
germs came from the patient herself,
sometimes from her nose or throat.
In 12 cases the germs came from the
throat or nose of the Doctor, or
Nurse, cr one of the Medical stud
ents who attended the case.
This gave us a New Idea. We saw
how to prevent Puerperal fever. We
now examine the noses and throats of
all maternity patients and likewise of
all their attendants and nurses so as
to make sure that they are free from
these dangerous germs, and we make
other .searches for germs. And the
doctors and nurses and others who
are hear the Mother at the time of
the birth wear a little gauze mask as.
an added precaution. The hospitals
where this Is done do not have cases
of puerperal fever. This can be done
in the home just as well as in the hos
pital. So when the Mother sees her
Doctor and Nurse come into her room
at the time of the birth of the baby
with a gauze mask tied neatly over
the nose and mouth, she does not say
"Is there anything the matter with
you?" She says "it is all right---i

Indian Tobacco, perhaps
attractive of the usually

in November. It is readily
by the very small flowers and inflat

The name might have arisen either
from the peculiar tobacco-like sensa

the fact that the Indians often smok

Here’s a tip if you want to save money this winter: Let D. L. &
W. "BLUE COAL” take dollars off your fuel bill. It’s the most
economical fuel to use. Burns clean — gives maximum heat per
