When the Magician Quit.

SEPTIC SORE THROAT.

What is septic sore throat? If it Is
so important why is it that nobody
heard of it until recently? These are
hard questions to answer. Septic sore
throat starts with a high fever, head
ache, and general aching. The throat
is sore. When the throat is examined
1t is found to be swollen and rather
evenly red. The throat looks very much
like a scarlet fever sore throat. and
when the sick person is a child who
has never had scarlet fever that dis
ease is suspected. But the scarlet fever
rash does not appear. A little later
white patches like those of follicular
tonsiiitis appear. By this time the
glands of the neck have begun to swell
and the patient complains of profound
weakness.
These are very good signs of diph-
liberia and you suspect that you child
has that disease. But by this time you
have n or several reports from the
laboratory to the effect that there is
no diphtheria. The laboratory reports
show streptocci. Already scarlet fever
has been ruled u and now diphtheria
is discarded.
But the patient is evidently sick with
some grave disease. The weakness Is
all out of proportion to what you would
expect from an ordinary sore throat.
Probably by this time you have discov-
cred that the glands of the neck are
forming assesses. You begin to sus-
pect semitic sore throat. About this time
you begin to zeal of other cases of sore
throat. Your milk man tells you that
several people on his milk route are
sick. When o ask him what is the
trouble he does not know for certain.
He has heard that they have sore
throat. Some have had their threats
lanced. but nobody seems certain what
the disease is.
Tha he disease is epidemic is about
the best ~diagnostic point that has beer
brought out. There is no way OF
diagnosing a single case of septic sore
throat with certainty. Suppuration oil
the glands is suggestive, but there are
other diseases which cause the glands
to s%uppurate. The same can be saiG
of profound prostration. But when sore
throat with these symptoms begins tc
be epidemic 1T is not hard to make the
diagnosis.
BY this time the health department
has become Interested. They find g

1t is really passing strange that the
dish towel has not gone long before

ment made by a scientific expert show
ing that the ordinary dish towel as it
is found in the homes Of even the
most fastidious housewives, is brim
full of germs before it's days work is
done, is Just about the last charge
made against the dish towel as a
kitchen institution.
These scientists tell us something
that, shorn of it's technical wording,
sounds like this: The air, especially in

times. And these little trouble breed

much less the domestic whom you en-
ploy, washes all tea towels between

BILE expense of time n energy. n
no ordinary washing Is sufficient to
dislodge the germs in the towels. Moth

really sterlize them. Usually, how
ever, the towels hat hav been hang

the luncheon dishes and then it is that
countless little germs nave an oppor-

The very silly part about the use of
dish towels is that it is not at all es-
s%ential, say household authorities. A
simpler, cleaner way can easily be es-
ta%blished in any household regime. All
that is necessary is some sort Of pro-
tected drying rack, for to permit dishes
to dry in the open would almost be as
bad as to dry them with towels so
dried. However, scalded dishes dry
amazingly quickly. In the case of glass
dishes the method of rae drying does
not always accomplish all it should by

glass, but for the glassware paper
towels or clean tissue paper can be
used after the glasses have dried first

TAKE A GLASS OF SALTS
WHEN BLADDER BOTHERS
Harmless to Flush Kidneys and Neu-
tralize Irritating Acids-spIendid
for the System.

Kidney and Bladder weakness result
from uric acid, says a noted authority.
Tho kidneys filter this acid from the
blood and pass it on to the bladder,
where it often remains to irritate and
lnflame, causing a burning, scalding
sensation, or setting up an irritation
at the neck of the bladder, obliging
you to seek relief two or three times
during the night. The sufferer is in
constant dread, the water passes
sometimes with a scalding sensation
and is very profuse; again, there is
difficulty in avoiding it.
Bladder weakness, most folks call
1T, because they can't control urina~
ton. While it is extremely annoying
n sometimes very painful, this is
really one Of the most simple ailments
to overcome. Get about four ounces
OF Jad Salts from your pharmacist and
take a tablespoonful in a glass of
water before breakfast, continue this
Tor two or three days. This will neu-
tralize the acids in the urine so it no
longer is a source of irritation to the
bladder and urinary organs which then
act normally again.
Jad Salts Is inexpensive, harmless,
and is made from the acid of grapes
n lemon juice, combined with fithia,
and Is used by thousands Of folks who
are subject to urinary disorders caused
by uric acid irritation. Jad Salts is
splendid for kidneys and causes no
bad effects whatever.
