Zurich Herald, 1930-10-09, Page 7THE ANAEMIC GIRL
Who Has Lost !ler Charm and
Beauty
"Sheseems to be losing her looks:'
This remark is often heard about girls
who were once noted for their spark-
ling eyes, their rosy cheeks and their
vitality. The cause is not far to seek
=—they have become anaemic; that ac -
senate for the pallor and the loss of
charm. The anaemic girl, if she ueg-
lecte her health, may be n sufferer all
her life.
Take heed, you pale, anaemic girls.
Plenty of fresh air, nourishing food
and rest will help you, but what you
need most is good blood. Those
wretched headaches; that fickle appe-
tite and those terrible heart palpita-
tions can only be banished if the
blood is rich, red and pure.
Good blood—the kind that brings
good health, is created by Dr. Wil-
liams' Pink Pills, The whole mission
of these Pills is to build rich, red,
health -giving blood. The Pills are
sold by all dealers in medicine or hy-
men

"If there is one disease more than
any other whose very name strikes
dread into the heatts of parentst;" says
a pamphlet recently published by the
Health Department of the Ontario Gov.
ernment, "it is Infantile Paralysis" or
"Poliomelitis,"
To -day I want to tell you about this
dreadful destroyer of young lives, but
I do not want to alarm you unneces-
sarily, Fortunately, it is possible for
me to promise you a message of gen- tome are: The Appearance of Weak -
nine hope insofar as this disease is nobs in any extremity, Skin and Mus.
concerned. For medical science has eular Sensitiveness, Spinal Pain, Ap-
recently learned a great deal about parent or Real Rigidity of the Neck
Muscles.
Now, pbysiclans have developed a
substance known as "Convalescent
Serum." This serum is actually taken
from the blood of individuals who have
recovered from the disease. As I indi-
cated
ndicated ,it cannot prevent the disease,
but if given during the critical period
of forty-eight hours after the onset of
the disease, it does enable the body of
the sufferer to flight off and prevent
the crippling.
Why does it do this? It has been
proven that very very rarely does .this
disease recur in the same individual.
That is because the blood of one who
successfully recovers from it has de-
veloped an immunity to the disease. It
has been found that if a very small
quantity of the blood of a recovered
patient is injected into, the • blood of
one who is just contracting the dis-
ease ,the new sufferer will quickly de-
velop the same immunity that exists
in the blood of the recovered patient.
Now you see why it is so important
for parents to memorize carefully the
symptoms of this disease. And why
it is so necessary'that the doctor be
summoned immediately, upon the first
suspicion of their presence.
It's all a question of speed—if the
doctor gets on the scent within forty-
eight hours after the first symptoms
begin to manifest themselves, he can
save the child from crippling or death.
Otherwise the serum is useless, for it
has been proven that once the crip-
pling begins to set in, it is too Iate for
the serum to work.

destroys the spinal nerve cells which
supply motive power to the muscles.
The early symptoms (it is most im-
portant that you note and remember
these symptoms, so I am going to say
thein' over very slowly), The early
symptoms are: Fever, Vomiting,
Slight Diarrhoea, Listlessne$s; Un-
usual leretfulnes
nusual-Fretfulnes sand Drowsiness.
Later and more characteristic :symp-
fighting it ,and so, while warning you.
against it, one is also able to tell you
how to protect your children from the
crippling and death that so often fol-
low in its wake.
These methods of protection differ
from those employed in safeguarding
human life and health from any other
disease. We know how to prevent
smallpox, 'and we know how to pre-
vent diphtheria, but our doctors have
not yet learned how to prevent the
crippling that follows the disease.
That, of course, is most important.
For while the disease is 'a serious and
dangerous affliction under any circum-
stances, it is robbed of much of its
"terrors when parents know that they
can practically assure their children
ultimate and complete recovery from
it.
"Now another hand than mine
Soon shall train the trellised vine,
Alien eyes shalt watch unfold
Buds of crimson and of gold.
Oh, little home—how well I know
That no one else can love you so!"
—Edith D. Osborne, in the Woman's
Magazine.
There are, however, some things
which must be borne in mind if this
happy conclusion is to be reached on
behalf of the little sufferers, and it is
those things which I would like to es-
pecially stress now.
In the first place, speed is essential
in diagnosis and in giving treatment.
Every moment of delay in calling the
family physician when suspicious
symptoms manifest themselves, is a
moment of added danger: If you would
save the life of a sufferer from infan-
tile paralysis, you must call in the doc-
tor early. Delay is fatal. In order
that you may understand why this is
the case, let nee tell you something
about the disease. It is caused by an

"What fat?"
"Just to kill time."
"Why waste your,ammunition when

In a small village in Ireland the
mother of a soldier met the village
priest, who, asked her if she had bad
news. "Sure, I have," she said, "Pat
has been killed." "Oh, I am very
sorry," said the priest. "Did you re-
ceive word from the War Office?'
"No," she said, "I received, word
from himself." The priest looked
perplexed and said, "But how is that?"
"Sure," she said, "here is the letter.
Read it yourself." The letter said:—
"Dear Mother, I am now In the Holy
Land," -
Doctors Don't Like Aircraft
While the man in the street sees
only cause for congratulation in the
way in which aircraft are now annihi-
lating distance, medical experts are
becoming a little alarmed at it.
They are pointing out that transport
so rapid as this is destroying one of
the safeguards against the spread of
disease.
Por instance, two of the most dan-
gerous diseases of the East plague
and cholera—are now held in check
by the efforts of health authorities at
the world's ports. If a man infected
by either of these diseases boards a
steamer, the trouble has developed
during the voyage sufficiently to en-
able it to be recognized, and the port
authorities can take the necessary
steps. • Bit aircraft are quicker—and
an infected man 'may land in a new
country before the ..disease has de-
veloped.
Another clanger is that mosquitoes,
bearing the germs of Malaria or yel-
low fever, may "stow away" on an
aeroplane and be carried from one
part of the world to another by air.

Climbing the Hills
