A leading New York gynecologist
has recently said: Tmprope.. per-
sonal hygiene has become a national
menace. Largely the result of ig-
norancc, it is direct blow at Ameri-
can womanhood. The continued use
of caustic fluids for. the purpose is
harmful to degree undreamed OF
by the public at large.
"Bichloride of mercury and cresol
are the two disinfectants now in gen
cral use. Both are poisonous and
caustic in character even when highly
diluted with water.
1.-The continued use OF such disin-
fcctants is disastrous and produces
pathological conditions which / am
constantly called upon to treat. 1t
also produces, through the impair
ment and notification of normal
functions, much unhappiness and
distress.
"The time has come for the medical
profession as a whole to take ag
gressive action in an effort to stamp
out the needless use of cauStic COM
pounds in this tremendously harmful
manner"
The foregoing fairly represents tho
attitude Of physicians toward ,he use
of poisonous antiscptics. What have
chemists to say on the subject? The
following. statement by the head of
an Amcf ican biological laboratory
with an International reputation
answers this question:

possibility, some 45 or 80 people, old
and young, gathered at Winslow
Grange hall, Monday evening, to at
tend the pie social. Some OF our

generous with her help in social
events, and also to Alfred LeClalr Is
much credit due.
Eleven pies were auctioned Off,
