Poison Ivy.

early autumn when children roam
the woods they very frequently come
in contact with poison ivy or poison
oak. If the skin is wet from rain or
perspiration one is more liable to be
attacked The poison may be con-
veyed by wood cut in the vicinity OF
the plant and handled by people who
have not actually been near the plant.
1t also may be conveyed from one per
son to another by a bath towel or
brush.
The first symptom noted is an In
tense itching, then the skin reddens
and in short time an eruption ap-
pears. This eruption frequently comes
within an hour or two after contact
with the poison, and sometimes not
for a couple of days. Considerable
swelling of the parts usually accom-
panies the eruptions, which are vesicu-
lar-that is, they look like tiny
blisters. In some cases the eruption
becomes pustular.
The poison runs course of about
two weeks, although secondary erup-
tions may follow for several weeks
without fresh exposure.
The treatment consists In relieving
the itching by applying some cooling
lotion as lime water, solution of
baking soda or mixture of lead wa
ter and laudanum.

IN OBEDIENCE TO ORDERS
French Boy Caused Merriment by
Taking the Order Of tho Court
Too Literally.

A droll incident is reported as hav-
ing taken place In one OF the pro-
vincial appeal courts in France. A
boy. about IA. was summoned to give
evidence. and his appearance was such
as to move the whole court to laughter.
He wore long redingote, peculiar to
the Basque country, and immense
boots. His trousers, collar and hat
we're unquestionably those OF man.
The court was convulsed, and the
president asked the boy how he dared
to treat the court In such manner.
The boy seemed as surprised as the
president, and taking out the citation
from his pocket, read the formula In
viting him. "Comparaitre dams les al
faires de son PEREZ" (To appear IN

their cause was not recognized. At
any rate. the increased consumption
of canned meats and vegetables in.
creases the possibility OF such condi-
tions. Lack of rigid laws for the Ia
spection of foods has permitted un-
scrupulous dealers to put on the mar
ket foods not fit for consumption. but
which. on account of their cheapness
or attractive appearance, have been
bought in large quantities by the poor
er classes. This desire to buy things
cheaply also causes people to purchase
partly decayed fruits and vegetables.
In the warm weather too much
care cannot be exercised in the care
of food material, especially meat and
milk. Many cases OF poisoning are
traced to warmed-over meats which
had been kept too long or to careless
ly kept chicken salad, or contaminated
fish.
The symptoms of poisoning are
nausea and vomiting. with sharp,
gripping intestinal pains. Headache.
chilliness and dizziness often are
present. There also may be consider
The treatment is, first to clean out
the intestinal tract with good laxa-
tive as castor oil or a one-tenth grain
of calomel, taken every half hour for
ten doses, followed an hour later with
dose of epson salts. This must be
done even though the bowels have
moved several times, for it is neces-
sary that all the irritating material be
gotten rid Of The patient should be
kept warm, heat being applied to the
feet and abdomen. Hot drinks, as
ginger tea, tend to reduce the pain

may be necessary to give powerful

THE ALARMING PREVALENCE
OF ECZEMA
Finds Victims Among Every Race,
Ago and Condition.


OF all the diseases OF the skin and
scalp which torture and disfigure man
kind, three-fourths are eczematous.
Millions are born with eczema, and 1t
Is the only thing other millions have
left when they die. Neglect in infancy
and childhood. irritating conditions af-
fecting the skin. ignorance OF its real
nature, improper remedies and many
other causes that might be mentioned
have created an eczema which, with
varying severity, has afflicted count
less numbers during their entire lives.
Eczema is skin disease. 1t is not re-
garded as hereditary, nor contagious.
and Is imparually distributed among
the rich and poor, the high and low.
The agonizing itching and burning of
the skin, causing loss OF sleep. Is usual
ly the most distressing symptom and is
caused by the bursting of little vesicles
filled with an acrid fluid, which burns
as with fire the denuded skin. New
vesicles form, fill and burst. scales
form upon scales, and crusts upon
crusts until Disagreement Is added to
torture.
One OF the most successful treat
ments for eczema. whether applied to
tho youngest infant or the Oldest per
son. is hot baths with Cuticura Soap
and gentle anointings Of Cuticura oint-
ment. For more than a generation,
these pure, sweet and gentle emolli-
ents have proved the most efficient
agents in the speedy and permanent
relief OF all forms Of eczemas, rashes,
itchings and irritadons of the skin and
scalp. Although Cuticura soap and
ointment are sold by druggists and
dealers everywhere, in order that
those who have suffered long and
hopelessly and who have lost faith in
everything may make trial of them
without charge. liberal sample OF
each will be mailed free to any ad-
dress. together with 32-page pamph-
let, giving a description and treatment
OF the various forms Of eczema, as
well as other affections Of the skin,
scalp, hair and hands-send to "Cuu-

NURSING
Disorders of Children.

Darrhoea Is a disorder very COM
mon among children during the au-
tumn months. 1t is attended by a
high death rate, especially with chill
dren under two years of age.
The cause is usually improper feed
ing The common practise among
certain classes of people of feeding
young babies various articles OF food
is very unwise. UP to the age OF
nine months baby needs nothing but
milk and is able to digest very little
else. Yet how often we see people
feeding babies coffee, potatoes. meat
and even things that are hard for a
grown person to digest! Babies fed
entirely upon milk often become sick
because proper attention has not been
given to the care of the milk and bot
ties. Cleanliness is certainly neces-
sity here. With older children the
diarrhoea is often caused by eating
unripe or over-ripe fruit or vegetables.
The symptoms are an increased
number of bowel movements, attend
ed by gripping pains in the abdomen.
They sometimes are accompanied by
vomiting, headache and fever.
The treatment Is first to stop all
food. and clean out the Intestinal
tract This can be done by giving an
enema or injection of warm water or
by giving a dose OF castor oil. Some
people are unable to understand why
this should be done when there al
ready have been numerous bowel
movements The diarrhoea is caused
by some food that is remaining In the
intestine and setting up an irritation.
The irritating material must be re-
moved before we can overcome the
diarrhoea and we do this by means
of an enema or dose of laxative. The
child then should be kept quiet and
warm. Heat applied to the feet and
abdomen often will relieve the pain.
A little peppermint water may be
given to aid in expelling the gases,
but nothing else should be given ex-
cept on the advice of physician.
Paregoric and various pain relievers
should not be given as they may be
very injurious. Many deaths are at
tributed to various soothing syrups
which contain harmful drugs. After
with the diet At first give only lit
tie rice water or barley water
In young babies. collie and diarrhoea
often are caused by giving sugar in
various forms. A tiny baby gets thirsty
the same as an older person. Milk
does not Quench this thirst, SO 1t
should be give:- = little warm water
several times a day. Many mothers
are not content to let well enough
alone and put little sugar In the wa
ter This forms gas and causes collie
and diarrhoea. In giving peppermint
water to young babies 1t Is not neces-
sary to add sugar. OF course the pep
permint water should be very weak,
In the proportion of one or two drops
of the essence to a cup of warm wa
ter The baby will take only about a
teaspoonful of this mixture in drop
doses. The majority of deaths from
summer diarrhoea might have been
prevented by a little care with the
diet.
