Pneumonia is an inflammation of the lungs caused by certain kinds of germs which pass to a. person through the nose or mouth from someone else who is carrying the germs. These germs are in the discharges from the throats and noses of most. people. There is danger from any of these germs as they sometimes cause colds and tron- chitis. Patients who refuse to afford the ex- pense of a trained nurse or doctor are penny-wise and pound-foolish, {or pneumonia is one. of the diseases in which proper care is of firet. import- ance. Some patients may not be able to afford either physicxan or nurse. Here the community must be held negligent if it does not. by voluntary or governme:tal means, supply such adequate care. It ls generally known that all pneu- monia patients are not getting this thorough medical and nursing care. The fault does not lie with the physiâ€" cian nor with the nurse. They stand ready to help when called. but they are not called soon enough .md often enough. In cases of pneumonia delay in call- ing a nurse or doctor is a major reason for the appalling death toll in the Do- minion. 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 (00.00200.00.0 0.00.00.0 0 .0 0 .0 0.0 0 00.0 0 ‘ The following is one of a series of educational health articles sent to The Advance by the Health League of Can- ada, a voluntary organization at pres- ent making a valiant tattle to improve the public health by rousing people in general to a knowledge of the subject of health and in effort to combat the vari- ous well-known causes that result in illness and death:â€" Over 40.000 persons have died of pneumonia in Canada in the past six years.

(‘lcrk What is to follow if pneumonia sets in depends upon the patient's resist- ance to the pneumonia germs. And it is here that the advantage of physical fitness and proper medical and nursing care. conserving this bodily strength, counts. Even in the weeks of recovery relapse must be guarded against by nursing the patient so that he or she will have no need to raise up in bed or in the slightest way over-tax their strength. Remember these important rules:â€" tl) Keep physically fit with daily exercise. cold avoid (3) room: ‘4) (5) Avoid close contacts with those who have colds or grip. or flue, or bronchitis. 16) Cover your mouth when sneezing or coughing. (7) Don‘t spit in public. ‘8) If you have a cold or grim)? or flue or bronchitis. go to bed and stay there until better. Pneumonia often is fatal. One per- son dies out of every five who con- tract the disease. Patients should be put to bed'immediately the disease is suspected and should stay there until they are fully recovered. Pneumonia usually starts with a severe chill. great prostration, loss of appetite. a feeling of heaviness in the chest generally made worse by coughing or breathing, followed in a few hours by bloody ex- pectoration. Sometimes there is no chill or pain in the chest. but only rapid breathing. blueness of the lips. and fever. Those sick with it, should be isolated. The doctor‘s instruction as to the disc meal of the patient's nose and throat discharges should be followed carefully to prevent further spread of the germs. Pneumonia often is fatal.

Brooks: In summer It is well to crowd onto 1 the menu all the fresh fruits and fresh Vegetables that we possibly can. It would be a lost opportunity to serve ,cumed or dried food when fresh was ‘_ available. But as soon as the fresh :‘ fruits become less plentiful on the mar. lket and are higher in prtce. then a ’thought should be given to the food valu9. the comparative cost. and the uses for dried fruits.

Cover with syrup Apricots are one of the most inter- esting oi’ the dried fruits. There are many ways in which they can be used in cookery. Because they have a truly distinctive flavour t-hey add a. zest to almost any dish. Stewed. they are very good at breakfast with ready-to-eat cereal, or served for dessert. for the school lunch or for a bedtime supper. Dried fruits. are the most concentrat- ed form of fruits and are economical to buy. They are fully ripened fresh fruits with the water and. in most in- stances. the seed. pit or core removed. The widely used method of removing the water content of the fresh fruit is by sun drying. but it is also done by the dehydrating method. which is rapid drying by artificially heated air.

It is not advisable to keep them under refrigeration but they should be kept in a cool place. out of draughts and away from radiators. stoves. etc. The cut fruits such as apri- cots, peaches. pears and apples darken when they are exposed to heat.

ONTARIO Opening of Enquiry Friday, Before Judge Lamps there are toâ€"day in such var- iety that we may change the word books to lamps in the familiar quo- tation “Of the making of books there is no end." Certainly it is true that ”Of the making of. lamps there is no end." Any article that. by hook or by crook, can be transformed from what it is into an electric lighting fixture is grist for the mill of change. Russian Samovar Lamp The latest article that I have discov- ered made over into a lamp is an an- tique Russian samovar. The shape and size of the samovar are unwieldy. There is something a bit grotesque in the appearance. It seems as though we should turn the light off and on by the spigot, as we would turn the flow of the water or the tea. oif and on. Yet, on examining the novel lamp it was discovered that no harm was done the samovar. The electric unit was simply inserted into the Openin.or at the top, from which the cover had been re- moved. The samovar could be restored to its original form, unharmed, simpLy by eliminating the unit. cord. bulb and “Somebody must be, otherwise I wouldn't be called here." retorted the judge. Mr. Caldbick wanted to call James IzatL buL the judge refused to hear him. since Mr. Caldbick said it was corrob- oration of Boyd’s conversation with Hemming. “Get the witnesses that know what happened. Not hearsay.“ said the judge. “Yeti can't. bring another witness to show that Boyd is not a liar." Mr. Caldbick hesitated at calling Hemming. “If I felt I was prosecuting instead of assisting your honour. I would not call Hemming'." And a little later: “I‘m not trying to substantiate the charges but merely trying to help your honour." Hemming Knew Nothing of Gold Hemming said he was not in the taxi business last February but had driven Boyd and two others out to- ward Schumacher on the evening in question. At the first bend of the 8 turn on the Hollinger road.

Boyd and another man came over one afternoon. He was pathetic. He started with $300. 'Don‘t be foolish.’ I said." Then he had told Hamming a long story about wanting to get married and being flat broke. “He figured I'd split with Bailey and Paul on the gold deal,” said the witness. "Did you see any gold?" "I never seen any gold." “Did you know if any gold was found by the police?" “No." Salley. not Paul. had driven his car back to T'meins with him, Hemming said.

It was satisfying to find re- storation was so simple. Transformations The ease with which articles can be altered from their original purpose to lamps without hurting the articles is one reason why lamps have become so heterogenous. It does not take an electrician to do the work. The home- maker can purchase the units. and make the transformation herself. Since this is the case. it is well for her to think whether or not the article is really well suited to its use as a lamp. Some Suitable Lamp Bases Among the articles that belong to this category are vases. bottles. jugs. some types of antique sugar bowls that are large and high, and which perhaps have, by now, no covers. Large candle- sticks with bases sufficient to support electric lighting units. are perfect for the purpose. as are old whaleoil and kerosene lamps. In these. the form of light is changed. but the object of the article, that of supplying light. re- mains intact. ( COpyrighL cabe, Inc.) Thu Acid Test Former Deputy Chief Salley corrob- orated everything Splawnyck had said about them being brought to the police station. Gogal had the bottle of metal in his hip pocket. Chief Paul put some of it. in a saucer and poured nitric acid on it. It “smoked and burned.” Salley said. On the evening when Boyd. Hem- ming, Boulanger and O'Brien had been stopped near the Hollinger he had seen nothing in the back seat. even after Boyd and O‘Brien had got out. Figur- ing that the gold was hidden in the car somewhere. Salley took charge of it and drove it back to Timmins with Hemming. where he searched it. thor- oughly with a. flashlight. "There was nothing there." He knew Mré. Nellie Kramer, Bailey said. but had never been at her house at any other time than while making searchm for liquor. Paul and Sall-ey took both men to the police station. found the stuff in Go- gal's pocket and asked them how they came to have it. They said nothing. Gogal has since left for Red Lake and cannot. be located. Other evidence on pm 1. 2. of this section and in Section 1 On Tuesday, November 26th. 1935. he and another fellow called Gogal, had gone to Boulanger and Desjardins on Main aVenue at seven o’clock to buy some gold. After some delay. they scaled out 43 ounces of it and the mon- ey changed hands. “It was in a. glass jar," said Splawnyck. “and was full of nuggets. Like walnuts size. No powder. all pieces. Boulanger says it is safe to go home. We start to walk down the sidewalk and watch. Nothing on the road. Then lights on a car come like a. knife in my stomach. They catch us right away." “Did Gogal ever come to court about it?” asked Mr. Caldbick. "No. That‘s all there was _to it. I lost $840, that’s all." “Was it your first deal?“ "My first and last." “Did you test the stuff?" "Just with my eye.” He was willing to swear it was gold he bought “Did you assay it?” asked the judge. “No." “Did you see the Chief test it?" "No." “Were the men questioned where they got it?" “Splawnyck said he didn‘t, know." The Chief kept the bottle in a drawer in his desk and Salley had often seen it there since, he said. 1936. by the Bell Syndi- Sands fate. Fashion still has enough 1 t for you.
