ARE RIPE OLIVES DAN
GEROUS?

THREE outbreaks of botulism pois-
i oning from canned ripe olives oc-
Cured in 1924. The reports of these
cases in the newspapers have again
aroused doubt in the public mind. Are
ripe olives a dangerous food?
A series of cases of botulism dur
ing 1919 and 1920 had marked effect
on the purchase and consumption Of
ripe olives. The California fruit and
vegetable growers and Gamers did
everything in their power to improve
and safeguard their goods. They
asked the help of the state and ma
tienal health authorities. They spent
large sums for experts They, i'm
proved their methods of canning.
They did every thing possible to reas-
sure the public. With the reassur-
ance, millions of cans of ripe olives
have been purchased and eaten. Three
cases of poisoning in year is, Of
course, a very small number. But
what the individual purchaser and
housewife wants to know is: How
can l know that l am not going to
get one of these three deadly cans"
To answer this question, the bureau
of chemistry of he Department of
Agriculture has made a second survey,
which has just been reported in the
December issue of the American Jour
nal of Public Health. Nearly 5000
sample cans of olives put up by 20
packers from 80 states were examined.
Spoiled or suspicious cans were not
confined to any particular packer or
to any special locality. Spoiled sam
pies included those whose contents
were off color or had suspicious
smell. where the olives were soft or
the liquid colored. In some cases.. the
cans were rusty or corroded inside,
buIged or contained gas. Some Of
these cans had remained on the deal
ers' shelves for several years.
Summing up their findings the gov
eminent experts say that canned ripe
olives that are free from odor, soften
ing or discoloration, and where the
cans are not bulged out. are not dam
gerous.
Don't buy any canned ripe olives
unless the year of packing is marked
on the can. If the olives are soft. dis
colored or have a suspicious odor,
throw them out. Don't take any
chances.

POINTS ON
KEEPING WELL
DR.. FREDERICK r. GREEN
Editor of "HEALTH"
CATARACT

THE eye is a Photographic camera,
i or. rather, the camera is an imi-
tation of the eye. The light rays enter
the camera through the lens and fall
on the film or plate. The same ar
rangement exists in the eye. The eye
lids are the shutters; the crystalline
lens is the focusing machinery; the
retina is the plate. If the lens in your
camera became cloudy or opaque, you
couldn't take a picture. If anything
happens to the crystalline lens In the
eye so that the light cannot pass
through it, then that eye cannot see,
because no light can reach the retina.
The old Greeks and Romans thought
that vision was located in the lens.
When it became thickened and white,
they thought that water had fallen
down In front of the lens, so they
called this waterfall by its Greek
name. cataract. We now know that
this thickening is not in front of the
lens but in the lens itself or in the
capsule or envelope which surrounds 1t.
This thickening of the lens often oc-
ours in old age. Just why the lens
thickens in old age we do not know.
1t may be one of the changes due to
age, like gray hair. But many old
people never have cataract. 1t Is
sometimes found in young children. 1t
may be caused by other conditions,
such as diabetes, Bright's disease, poi
soning, injury or eyestrain.
1t is especially frequent in persons
exposed to high degrees Of heat, such
as glass blowers and furnace workers.
1t is sometimes hereditary.
In the beginning the clear, transpar-
ent lens becomes spotted, or streaked
with white bands, the vision is weak
ened or the patient may see double,
or may see black specks. One peculiar
symptom is that the patient can see
better in the twilight than he can in
bright daylight. The white spots and
bands slowly increase, the pupil be-
comes white and the patient gradually
becomes blind.
Cataract may affect one or both eyes
or it may attack the eyes successfully.
1t may become stationary at any time,
leaving the sight impaired but still
present to considerable degree, or it
may rapidly develop in both eyes until
the patient is completely blind.
Cataract does not destroy sight. 1t
forms light-proof shutter in the front
of the eye. If the thickened and use
less lens is removed, sight can be re-
stored. This is done by the eye sur
geon, who hicks the conjunctiva, which
covers the eyeball, cuts through the
envelope which surrounds the lens and
pops the hardened lens out through
the opening just as the cook pops peas
out of their pods.
But this cannot be done successfully
until the cataract is "ripe," that is,
until the lens is hard enough to pop
out in one piece. If done too soon, it
won't come out clean; if too late, it
may have grown fast. The eye sur
geon can tell when the right time
comes.
When the cataract is removed, the
light, can get into the eye. But the
patient can't focus. SO he has to have
artificial lenses in the form of glasses
to focus the light rays on the retina.
