HEART UNHURT IN FALLS
Doctor Denies Accidents Cause Car
diac Diseases.
BIZ Science SerUice


WASHINGTON, Aug. IA. The
man with heart disease, except in
very advanced stages, need not be
afraid that an accident, either a
minor one such as tripping over
the rug or a major one in which he
falls or is thrown, will affect the
function of his heart, causing in
creased weakness or failure. DR.. w.
I. Clark of Worcester, Mass, reports
that as rule accidents do not af-
feet a diseased heart, and there
does not seem to be any special
type of accident which is invariably
followed by heart failure.
Certain exceptions do occur in
which after an accident the heart
may show signs of failure which
persists and progresses. These cases
are found especially among older
workers who have heart trouble or
who are on the verge of heart fail
ure anyway.

DETOXIFIER
FOR MOUTHS
Dental Profession Is
User Of Formula
For Diseases

Because bacteria are constantly en-
tering the mouth with food and drink
and entering the house and adjoin-
ing areas with the air, the diseases
they cause are a source OF serious
trouble for human beings. Particles
of food between the teeth give these
germs the soil they need for growth.
while the warmth and moisture Of
the mouth offer further encourage
ment for reproduction.
But 1t is the ferments or toxins
that bacteria throw out that fire.
quently produce disease, and not the
bacteria themselves. The Importance
Of detoSification in the treatment
Of mouth disease, therefore, becomes
apparent, since by its means bacte-
rial ferments are neutraliZed and
normal rebuilding of tissue permit
ted.
The William S. Merrell company
has earned and has been accorded
the appreciation Of the dental pro-
fession because Of their application
Of sodium ricinoleate in the treat
ment Of mouth disease. The firm
has produced this detoxifying agent
IN Soricin, which is put up in the
form Of Detoxol Paste and Detoxol
Liquid. These are used widely by
the dental profession in the treat
mant Of m~uth diseases and also are
recommended for use by the individ-
ual as directed by the dentist. Both
forms are supplied to druggists by
the international Drug Co. Of
Brownsville.
The scientific discoveries behind
the development Of Detoxol Paste
and Detoxol Liquid were made BY
DR.. W. p. Larson, head Of the De-
partment OF Bacteriology and Immu-
nology at the University Of Mime
sofa, and Thomas b. Hartzell, VI. ID.
and d. ID. s., former president Amer
lean Dental Association. The re-
search laboratories of the Merrell
Company then cooperated and made
possible the application of their dis
coveries to the needs of mankind.

CROQUET GAME

Professional men, their wives and

average citizen and his family in
aiding croquet to stage comeback
in the world Of sport.
Each afternoon, Sunday included
finds dozens Of devotees Of the game
at Palmer Park here and the click OF
mallet against the wooden ball is
heard through daylight hours.
Charles w. Williams, reviewing
appraiser of the Federal Land Bank,
revived the game in New Orleans
He sees in it an ideal sport for the
business man.
There is no other game to equal
croquet," Mr.. Williams declares. I'm
the first place it takes real brain
work in engineering your play. Golf
has the wrong hours for busy men
with little leisure. Few men can
take the entire afternoon or morn
ing away from their office. Gro
quet, in comparison. allows plenty
of good exercise with from one to
three hours play after the days
work is done.
"Croquet is a fascinating game
It doesn't matter what else you do
or what your hobby is, if you start
playing croquet, you will drop all
other sports and play nothing but
that"
