A HEALTH SERVICE OF THE CANADIAN MEDICAL' ASSOCIATION ;AND LIFE INSURANCE COMPANIES IN CANADA THIRST `What's worse than drin0" asked the temperance lecturer. "Thirst," was the feeling reply from one mem- ber of his audience. No doubt this listener's throat had become dry and so he longed for a cool drink; he was thirsty, This sensation we call thirst is a signal that the body is itt need of more fluid. The se<.t•etion of .saliva decrease in sympathy with a general loss of body fluids; the thoat is not lubricated; there is I feeling of dry- ness, and we say that we are thirsty, Fora time, this sensation may be overcome by chewing anything that causes an increase in the flow of sal- iva. This does not, of course, relieve thirst, but it does, for a time, over- come the sensation of dryness of the. throat arising from thirst. The dee mand for fluid should be heededwhen it makes itself felt, because at this time, the body really needs more fluid in order to perform its functions. pro- perly. The best and most simple- way to quench thirst and to provide the body with the fluids it requires is by drink- ing water. It is •unwise to drink very quickly large amounts of cold water. Cold water should besipped; ,this :al- lows for its pleasant coolness to be felt in the throat and avoids chilling of the stomach. What the individual drinks is larg- ely a matter of habit; and if the in- dividual prefers to add something to the water, there is no objection, -pro- vided the material added is 'harmless, or, better still, if the added material is something of value, such as fresh fruit juice, We have, on more than one occasion, referred to the value of fresh fruits in the diet. The use of fresh fruit beverages supplies not on- ly a pleasant way of quenching the thirst, but also of securing minerals and vitamins in abundance. Much of the fluid required by the body is secured from our foods which' contain a large percentage bf water. Mill. is almost ninety per cent. wat- er, and so literally it provides both food and drink. It is .generally .agreed that most people do not use enough water, and that many would enjoy better health if they did use more water. No one can lay down rules for the quantity of water which each individual should drink, because weather and the de- gree of physical activity play a large part in this. We suggest a glass or two of water upon rising and between meals, as the average requirements, this to be supplemented in warm wea- ther and following physical activities. Questions concerning Health, ad- dressed to the Canadian Medical As- sociation, 184 College St., Toronto, will be answered personally by letter, PARASITES OF HORSES Comparatively few of the internal parasties of horses complete their life -cycle entirely within the horse and some even require another host of different type such as a fly, a beet- le, eetle, or a. snail in which to pass a por-. tion of their life. The eggs are usual- ly swallowed by the second host and develop to the stage at which they are capable of infesting domestic ani- mals. It is evident therefore that a knowledge of the life history of par- asites is necessary if this problem is to be intelligently de'alt with and the parasites attacked at the most vulner- able stage. During the winter months the horseman has generally more time to devote to the care of. his horses, and as it happens, the fall and spring are advantageous times to treat horses infested with worms and the. best time for the treatment of bots is at the beginning and end of winter- Of course, horses may be treated' at. any time definite symptoms of para- sitism are evident. As a rule the eggs of parasites are passed out with the manure and un- dergovarious stages of development;; then the infective larvae or eggs are again swallowed by the horse through the means of contaminated food or water. It is an evident fact, there- fore, that the proper disposal of man- ure is an important factor in the pre- vention of parasitism: Manure Should: be in an inclosure, packed so that it will heat, and should be turned in or- der that the outer leaves are also sub- jected to heat. This procedure,if carefully carried out, will destroy the eggs and larvae of parasites. Stables and pasturelands should be kept as'free from „manure as possible. Tight floors are easily kept clean. Grain boxes and feed racks are raised above the ground assist in preventing the contamination of food. Water troughs should be of concrete or me- tal and raised to prevent contamina- tion of the drinking water. Perman- ent pastures eventually become poll uted•with`the eggs or parasites. When possible these pastures should be cul- tivated and where this is not practi- cable, the different domesticanimals should be pastured in rotation. The parasitesof cattle and sheep are rare- ly transmissable to horses and vice versa. If pastures are used on alter- nate years for horses, and then for cattle and sheep, a considerable re- duction in worm infestation would take place. Horse manure should ne- ver be spread on pastures .intended. for horses. -Parasites of Horses Bul- letin, Dominion Department of Agri- culture. "Let me kiss those tears away, sweetheart," he begged tenderly: She fell into his arms, and he was very busy for a few moments. But the tears flowed on. "Will nothing stop them?" he ask- ed, breathlessly. "No," she murmured. "It's hay fever, but go on with the treatment." Miss Neverstop, seating herself be- tween two much engrossed elderly men, exclaimed: "A rose between two. thorns." "No." retorted one, "a tongue sand- wich." • IT'S LIVER THAT MAKES YOU FEEL SO WRETCHED Wake up your Liver Bile -No Calomel necessary For you to feel healthy and happy, youe liver must pour two pounds of liquid' bile intoi your bowels, every day. without that bile, trouble starts.
