This malady rarely occurs In in

something occurs TO upset the mother.

from eating too much candy, unripe

people this disorder is called a bilious

ing the summer months. II Is very

OF the skin and cold feet; In severe
cases. fever, nausea and vomiting
of mucus and undigested food. When
the food has been more than usually
ndigestible there are often convul-
sions and symptoms resembling those
of inflammation of the brain and
spinal cord
The writer remembers well a typi-
cal case. A child of three years, after
eating a number of windfallen apples
and drinking two cups of milk, was
suddenly seized with commissions, oc-
curing every half hour or less, and
remained unconscious for hours.
Some effort had been made to empty
the stomach by vomiting, but in vain.
An emetic and tickling the throat with
a feather brought up mass of Jumps
of unrlpe apple and large, sour curds.
This soon restored the little one to
consciousness. A thorough enema and
dose of castor oil freed the alimen-
tary canal of the undigested food and
poisons produced by It.; but several
days of fever followed, during which
no food could be retained by the stom-
ach, and even water was rejected for |
a time.
The best treatment in case of acute |
Indigestion is to empty the allmentary |
tract at once by an emetic of warm |
water or the stomach lavage; a thor |
ough enema and mild cathartic to |
free the bowels. Stop all food at |
once, and do not try to put anything
into the stomach until the vomiting |
ceases, unless 1t be ice-pills or sips of
hot water.

Here's another hint from the same
journal. Scientists who have gone
boldly into the favored haunts of the
mosquito to study his ways. have
discovered that the insects are par
tial to some colors and averse to
others. They particularly dislike yell
low Their favorite Is dark blue, with
dark red next, then brown, then scar
let, then black. then blue gray, then
olive green, then violet, then pearl

II should be borne In mind that the
mosquito is the chief source of malar-
ial infection. Certain species of mos
quito constantly carry with them in
their bodies the malarial parasites,
and in inflicting their bite they inject
some of these parasites into the
blood
DR.. Schoo has observed that when
mosquitoes have access to acid fruits
their bite becomes less poisonous, or
quite harmless. And Professor Cell
has observed that in portions of Italy
where tomatoes are largely cultivated,
the people are practically free from
malarial infection, although the region
is naturally very malarious. 1t would
seem, then. that the wide cultivation
of acid fruits, such as tomatoes
and other succulent
may be made an important
factor in Kidding the world of this
very troublesome pest.
