POPULAR MEDICINE
BY DR.. HIRSHBERG
Intelligent Observation of Rules
of Hygiene Will De-
crease Illness.
By DIR. LEONARD n. HIRsHBERG.

Proof that wheat, barley, oats, corn
and rice can cause chronic coughs and
asthma has just been verified by DR..
]. 4. TurnbuIl, OF Boston.
-Anaphylaxis" or susceptibility and
supersensitiveness to berries, FISH,
crabs, microbes, bacteria, tomatoes
and other food proteins is indicated
by fever or breaking out" such as
measles or hives. Before II was
known that you must acquire taste
for" the food or become immune to
the protein of the ration or the dis
ease. il was believed that "acids'
caused the trouble.
DR.. Turnbull has demonstrated the
same effects from the cereals. Wheat
was taken as a standard. because
bread is so popular. Skin tests can be
made with the proteins of germs
and OF foods, just as with vaccination.
These cutaneous tests are made below
the crook of the elbow on the fore
arm.
How Test Is Made.
A little scratch is made without
drawing blood and the wheat or other
cereal is scratched into this. Twenty
minutes later, If you are "anaphy-
Tactic" or hypersusceptible to that ar
ticIe. a hive which burns and itches is
to be seen.
Bakers with asthma and chronic
coughs were in this fashion discovered
to owe their troubles to the bread and
dough. BY omission from the diet of
bread and boiled cereals to which
they were sensitive, the symptoms
soon cleared up. Yeast did not cause
the trouble, because IL, too. was
scratched into the flesh and found to
be harmless. No hives resulted.
Other persons with coughs and
asthmatic attacks were thus tested
or hvsccinated" with various cereals.
Ninety reacted" to corn. So to rice,
81 to oats, and 63 to barley.
BY removal OF the particular foods
TO which they were sensitive and the
elimination OF every chance OF the
sufferer either smelling OF eating
such grain. the sensitized individual
became free OF the spells.
Action Of ProteIns.
Dr. Turnbull AYERS that this AN
aphyIatic" action of the proteins OF
grain is manifested as often in other
parts of the human anatomy as in
the skin and the breathing appara-
tus.
Although the proteins of wheat.
rye, barley, corn. and rice usually
enter the human blood and tissue
juices via the stomach route. they
also penetrate in smaller particles by
way of the nose and throat.
Cooking, boiling. baking, or heating
fails to prevent their "hay-fever-like"
snsphylaxis. 1t actually augments
this action.
Only by means Of the skin test,
which really resembles vaccination,
can you be certain that it is a particu-
lar protein, plant, food, bacillus. or
micrObe which produces the hyper
sensitiveness of the lungs or other
structures.

COMB SAGE TEA IN
HAIR TO DARKEN IT
Grandma Kept Her Locks Dark, Clos.
sy, thick With Mixture Of Sage
Tea and Sulphur.

The old-time mixture Of Sage Tea
and Sulphur for darkening gray,
streaked and faded hair is grandmoth-
er's treatment, and folks are again
using it to keep their hair good, even
color, which is quite sensible, as we
are living in an age when a youthful
appearance is Of the greatest advant-
age.
Nowadays, though, we don't have
the troublesome task of gathering the
sage and the mussy mixing at home
All drug stores sell the ready-to-use
product called "Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Compound" for about SO cents a
bottle. 1t is very popular because no.
body can discover 1t has been applied.
Simply moi5ten your comb or a soft
brush with it and draw this through
your hair, taking one small strand at
time. by morning the gray hair dis
appears. but what delights the ladies
With Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur is that,
besides beautifully darkening the hair
after few applications, it also pro-
duces that soft lustre and appearance
Of abundance which is SO attractive;
besides, prevents dandruff, itching
scalp and falling .hair.-Aox.

COUNTY BOARD ACTS
ON ADVICE OF JURY

In speaking of recommendation
made by the grand jury of the Wayne
circuit court concerning improvements
in county institutions, county COM
missioners said today that they have
previously considered most of the In
novations suggested in the partial
report.
Although we recognize the need of
a new women's building at the poor
farm, we cannot see our way clear
to ask for an appropriation at this
time.
The commissioners approved Of the
recommendation for an improvement
of the drainage system at the poor
farm.
In accordance with recommends
lions, the commissioners will probab-
" order the inside of the county Jail

PRESS OF Spain
TO REMAIN CALM

LONDON, Feb. IA Reuter- dis
patch from Madrid says the Spanish
minister Of the interior on communi-
eating to the newspapers the note Of
the Central Powers regarding their
new naval measures appealed to them
in view of the necessity of preserving
their neutrality and on account Of the
gravity of the situation, to observe
discreet composure The minister
said he feared that when the purport
of the note became known disorders
might occur, particularly in the east
ern districts, as the policy of the Cen
trail Powers meant interruption of for
eign trade and grave dislocation of
the internal life Of the country.
The impression prevails in Madrid,
the correspondent says, that parlia-
ment will be adjourned in order to
prevent discussions which might be
dangerous

the meetings and the agricultural
work which is being done in the
schools, considerable attention is be-

EARTHQUAKE
DEATH TOLL
NOT HEAVY?


NEW YORK, June Slope,
based on cables since the first
shock of the disaster, that the
earthquake which wrecked the
city of San Salvador and surround
ing towns for the fifth time in
their history, did not take heavy
toll of life, is expressed by local
agents of San Salvador firms here
today.
A >report from San Miguel de-
clared that clared that 100 houses
were left standing in San Saliva
dor. Heavy earthquakes, it was
said, followed by deluge of lava
and boiling water from the group
Of volcanoes, which flanks the
city.
The largest of the volcanoes are
Santa Ana and San Miguel.
This is the sixth time San Sal
vador has been wholly or partial
~ wrecked by earthquake or vol
canic eruption.
