The Value of Pollen Extracts


Last year, in these columns,
wrote treatise on the prevention of
hay fever which led many persons to
carry out the suggestions contained
therein, with results that were ex-
tremely gratifying. Complete relief
or marked abatement in the symptoms
was observed in 80 per cent of cases
treated.
Pollen Extracts Proven Valuable
The hub of the treatment respon-
sible for the above results was the
desensitization of patients with pol
len extracts.
A number of factors are responsible
for the beneficial results following
the use of these extracts at the pres
ent day. First, the improved methods
of preparation now employed assure
full potency, maximum stability and
uniform dosage. Second, the making
of diagnostic skin tests determines
with absolute exactness-to which
specific pollen the subject is SEN
sitized, thus assuring the use of the
correct extract TO reach individual
case.
Contributing Causes Now Recognized
The important part which various
contributing factors play in the eitol-
ology of hay fever is now recognized,
and means for their elimination con-
stitute an essential part of the treat
IL q
these accessory causes ranks second
in Importance only to the administra-
ton of the pollen extract. In fact
the results obtained from the use of
the extract are governed to a large
degree by the thoroughness with
which contributing factors are deleteC
from the clinical picture.

PANKHURSI,
SJFFRAC|SE, DIES
British Women's Leader, SO,
First Militant in Cause,
Was often Jailed.

ny the Associated Press
LONDON, June l4.--One of the nost
picturesque figures in the woman suf-
ffage movement, Mrs Emmeline Pank-
hurst, died this morning in a London
nursing home at the age of SO. Death
came after a comparatively short illness,
Mrs. Pankhurst was the first militant
woman suffragist, millions of whom are
now casting their ballots at the pariia-
n1entary election as a result of the work
of her and her supporters This early
work was often done at great personal
risk
After founding the Women's Social
and Political Union with her daughter
lChristabel. Mrs Pankhurst started the
'votes-for women agitation by heading
q deputation to the House Of Commons
TO demand the vote. Many members of
this body were jailed.
Often in Jail.
Afterward the Women's Freedom
League came into being and its ad-
herents adopted militant methods. Hol-
.loway jail was frequently used by the
authorities 70 attempt to check the ac-
tfvities OF the women. Mrs Pank-
was VlbCii UUl O1 AIlHt 1tiSLl~
tuition and her last offense brought a
sentence of penal seryitude. She started
a hunger strike, however. and was re-
leased before the sentence was COM
pleted.
At the outbreak of the World War
Mrs Pankhurst and other militant suf-
fragiSts joined in supporting the coun-
try. They spoke from recruiting plat
forms and assisted ministers whose lives
they had been making intolerable q few
weeks previously.
Suffrage WIS granted to women above
30 in 1918 and since that time Mrs.
Pankhurst had been b supporter Of those
urging that it be granted to women
over 81, as provided in what is known
as the ''fiapper vote" bill.
Visited In United States.
Mrs. Pankhurst visited America and
lectured in behalf of her country.
OF late years Mrs. Pankhurst had
been constitutionalfst At the time Of
her death she was the Conservative can
uidate for Commons from Whitechapel.
She was also running a tea room.
Her daughter Sylvia recently wrote
expressing profound grief that her
mother had deserted her old cause OF
progress to which Sylyia's father, Rich
ard Marsden Pankhurst, and "all of u.s.
had given long service.
