mothers boiled water for the formula in an electric kettle soldered with lead have an 18 monthold son and used that kind of kettle Obviously it didnt Kill him but Im wondering if lead could have been built up in his system Can you answer some ques tions for me What are the signs of lead poisoning Does any lead eaten remain in the system or does it eventually leave What damage does it do What is done to determine the amount of lead in body is it of any value inthe body What are some of the common things that could cause lead poisoning Is there any way to remove lead How do find if my kettle is soldered with lead Mrs GD Lots of good questions Your electric utilit company should be able to tel you if the kettle is soldered with lead If so use another kettle If you have not noticed any symptoms in 18 months of using your ket tle chances are pretty good it is safe Now to your questions Children are exposed by nibbling paint chips from old houses or chewing furniture painted with leadbased paints Prior to the Second World War leadbased paint was common Today it is outlawed for such uses in this country Beware some of the imports Symptoms of lead poisoning are irritability ab dominal cramps anemia pallor and weakness The vic tim often has history of picathe chewing or eating of material other than food ln the body lead is at tracted to soft tissue and bones It leaves the body through feces and urine but ver slowly and thats the chief lem It affects nervous sys tem the blood cells and the brain when consumed in large amounts There are various tests used to check lead levels These include blood tests stool exam ination hair analysis and rays which may show bone cha es tests show elevation of lead drug called EDTA edathamine is injected in travenously or taken by mouth This helps remove it from its storage places in the blood or bones Lead poisoning also called plumbismfrom the Latin word for lead is found chiefly in children up to five or six ears who live in old neighbor hoods The lead industry has done much to combat the problem but despite this more than 20 000 cases of poisoning are re ported each year Theres no apparent value of lead in the system yet

on clubs at tack diamonds either by win ning the first spade in dummy and trying an immediate finesse or by winning in his own hand and banging down the diamond ace and queen Finally he decided to work tion that the deuce of spades lead was genuine fourth best As he said later Two suits are better than one He won the spade in his hand and led club toward dummy West ducked Now the professor was in dummy while there were still two ex tra entry cards He took the diamond finesse cashed the ace of diamonds entered dummy with the ace of hearts knocked out the jack of diamonds and wound up mak ing
