Uncle Harry Explains About Dyes And Their High Cost

AS Uncle Harry threw his coat
over fhe back of a chair--for Il was
one OF those warm evenings in early
Jnne-a letter fell out of his pocket
When he picked up the envelope and
turned it over he saw that it was the
very letter he had received just be-
fore the Office closed.
Maybe it's from one Of your boy
or girl friends, Uncle Harry, asking
you 20 give a talk on some special
subject" said Joe, who with Jimmy
was sitting on the porch railing di-
rectly I'm front of Uncle Harry
wouldn't be surprised II 1t was,
said Uncle Harry as he ran a pencil
under the flap and opened the enve-
lope.
That's just what It is, boys. and its
the very question that I've been ex-
pecting some fellow would ask me.

"Will you tell us, too?n asked Joe.
1--WE been seeing articles in the paper
about dyes ever since the war started.
There was always something about
the cost of dyes getting higher and
higher. but couldn't understand It."
"And will you tell us what dyes
are made of and how they are made?"
added Jimmy.
Uncle Harry laughed heartily as 10
said: Boys. you must think your uncle
is a professor Of chemistry But he's
not and"
"Oh, / didn'. mean lecture like a
college professor would give" said
Jimmy quickly. Just explain dyes
so we can understand Il and will know
something about dyes when We read of
them in the paper"
"Well. in the irst place, I'll answer

years Germany has been the leading

they be made in the United States g?
asked Joe.
Most OF the dyes made today com
from coal tar which is a thick. stick
substance that is produced from Goa
in the course Of manufacturing Goa
gas" explained Uncle Harry. "Fror
coal tar chemists extract an oil
LIQUID called a-n-i-l-i-n-e. Then cer

Some dyes are made that way.

These distractions, when they exist
from birth or early infancy, and are
allowed to continue, frequently result
in a pronounced deformity of the chest
due to interference with the expansion
of the lungs. You are all familiar with
these cases, presenting the prominent
sternum, with the lower ribs depressed
on the sides, the so-called pigeon
breast.
Deafness
In about two-thirds Of adenoid eases
there is more or less impairment of
hearing. This is due to a catarrhal
condition Of the Enstachian tube or
an infection of the ear.
Reflex symptoms
Under the head Of reflex symptoms.
nearly every obscure ailment in a child
has been ascribed to adenoids. Many
of them are undoubtedly due to ade-
noids and If is a fact that they show
a marked improvement and frequently
a cure, when the growths are removed.
Spasmodic Group results from a ca.
tarrhal condition Of the larynx and is
generally associated with adenoids.
This is one Of the conditions where we
can usually predict a cessation Of the
attacks, following the removal Of the
adenoids. The growing attacks, occa
s%ionally seen in newborn infants, have
been claimed to be invariably due to
eongenital adenoids.
Children suffering with bronchial
asthma are frequently cured by the
removal of their adenoids.
Other reflex symptoms which are fire.
quently associated with adenoids are
incontinenee of urine, bed-wetting,
stammering, -ervousness and back
