PERIL OF LEAD POISONING
'The human body is especially sus-
ceptible to the poisonous qualities of
lead. Industrial physicians have long
given attention to the danger:. of
lead poisoning in manufacturing
plants in which this substance 10
much used.
It occurs regularly in the painting
and printing industries, in glass
manufacturing and in many other
forms of labor.•
It is not usual, however, to find
children, and especially infants suf-
fering from this disorder, Neverthe-
less, Dr. C, F. McKltann, working in
the Harvard medical school, has
found a number of such cases in chil-
dren, secondary to a sort of per-
verted appetite.
Paint and Cloth -
Infants and children not infre.
quently swallow sand, coal, cloth,
hair or paint, because of the tendency
to put everything into the mouth,
and babies especially will chew paint
from toys, cribs, or woodwork.
A small close of the substance is
not sufficient to produce serious
symptoms immediately, but the con-
tinued taking of small amounts will
eventually produce some severe; dis-
order,
The importance of the matter may
be recognized from tlae foot that 17
children with lead. poisoning were
discovered in children in en infant's
hospital of )Ioeton from September,
1923, to May, 1926, In three of the
most serious eases children under 2
years developed sever, symptoms
from chewing the paint en woodwork
and cribs.
If the symptoms are discovered
sufficiently early, treatment is not es-
pecially difficult, but the longer the
taking of the lead persists the more
permanent may be the changes de-
veloping in the body.
Help Through Diet
The lead is removed from the body
by giving a diet very low in calcium.
Such a diet must emit milk, eggs,
green vegetables and mang fruit;
which are ordinarily the most yetis
factory substances for children. It
may contain, however, meat, liver,
potatoes, rice, tomatoes, corn, ban-
anas and milk -free bread.
Children should be watched cave -
fully for any disorder's of the appe-
tite :well as heee been descrihed and
the: habit corrected as soon as posst-
ble..
Anemias, loss of appetite, constipa-
tion, abdominal pain and vomiting
may often be the; first symptoms- of
the onset of the type of poisoning;
that has been mentioned, A physic
yen should be promptly consulted in
the presence of these symfgtnm!, since

WHY SUFFER
FROM RHEUMATISM
"FRUIT-A-TIYES" HAYS HEIPEU THOUSANDS
r r r
MS. DAVISON
If you are made miserable by
this painful disease, read this en-
couraging letter from Mrs. Louis
Davison of Eau Claire, Ont.
"Some years ago,. I had a severe
attack of Rheumatism. I tried many
remedies but received little benefit.
A few months ago, I saw an ad-
vertisement of "Fruit -a -tires" and
decided to try them. After taking
four boxes, 1 am now able to do all
my own work besides putting in a
large garden. I take great pleasure
in recommending "Fruit-a-tives" to
anyone suffering from Rheumatism."
"Fruit-a-tives is a genuine fruit
medicine, made from fruit juices in-
tensified and combined with tonics.
It frees the system of poisonous
waste matters and purifies the blood
stream.
Try "Fruit-a-tives" ybnrself and
let them restore you to health and

Circulating the Scripture,
The report, which is now p•tblisheel
of the British and Foreign Bible Soc-
iety for the year ended March 31
shows another year of increased ac-
tivity, More copies of the Scriptures
either whole or in part, have been
Issued than ever before, the vital is-
sue being very nearly 10,500,000 in
those countries of tate world where,
for the want of a national Bible Sec-
iety, the British society pushes its
wm es. Unless the eireutnstancee aro
exceptional, the society does not give
les books away; it holds, rather, that
what is bought is more likely to be
valued than what is corse by for
nothing; but'it often sells at a nom-
inal price, and always at a price
which leaves the bulk of the expense
to be borne by itself. Hence the
greater the volume o1 ,its business
the more financial help it is bound
to look for unless its work is to dim-
inish.
The society's analysis ere the dis-
tribution of its books is always in-
teresting. Of tate whole number, last
year, nearly 1,000,000, being printed
in English, were disposed of among
English- speaking communities; while
over 4,000,000 were circulated . in
China, 4,251,000 volumes to be pre
cise—an increase of 385,70(/ over the
figures of the previous 'year, which
were the highest on record. And
this in a time of unparalleled an-
xiety in China, amid the chaos and
anarchy of an ancient people. But
the Chinese, it will be remembered,
have always been readers and enter-
tain a long-standing respect for the
printed page; they have also been a
religious anci philosophic people; so
that it is not surprising that the sec-
ioty's volumes, written by Chinese
scholars, printed in Chines: type,
and bound in the Chinese style',
should find an - eattensive public. --
