BODY FAT IS Found
INJURIOUS TO EYES
IN some INSTANCES
Alterations Of Body Lipids Are
Described Before American
Medical Group

Philadelphia. June l2.-R-A new
role for fat, as the injurious agent
In several forms Of eye trouble, was
explained at the American Medical
society meeting Thursday.
These troubles have no relations to
overweight, but are due to alterations
Of the body fats. called lipids, which
cause them to directly or indirectly
affect the eyes. Diet promises
control sufficiently to be q preventive
In many cases.
The work was presented by Parker
Heath. M. D., Detroit. He said it Is
based upon a new understanding Of
broad biological and chemical pro.
cesses and offers simplification in
understanding many diseases"
Something Goes Wrong
These fat changes come about In
connection with something going
wrong in the army Of disease fight
ers regularly maintained in the blood,
the white cells, called phagocytes.
Their job is to clean up the infections,
and their name means the eaters"
They change into trouble-makers be-
cause OF alterations in the body's
metabolism, its processes Of changing
food into the substances needed for
nourishment. If this metabolism Is
upset. the fats also may undergo
changes.
The result is an increase In the
white blood cells, which appear In the
form Of very large cells called macro-
phages. and start injuring or destroy
Ing body tissues. DR.. Heath has iden-
titled various eye troubles as due to
this kind Of attack, either directly or
In after-effects.
Changes In diet, DR.. Heath said,
may control and correct the metabol-
ism alterations In facts, and 50 pre-.
vent the eye diseases, but are un-
likely to effect cures II begun after
the optical troubles.
The destructive effects Of drinking
an adulterated form Of jamaica GIN
ger were demonstrated for the first
time at a session late Wednesday by
Benjamin T. Burley, M. D., Of the
neurological department Of the Wor-
chester. Mass, city hospital. He was
assisted by Raymond H. Goodale. M.
H., WOICeSCcT.
New to Medicine
DR.. Hurley said this position is new
to medical annals. It attacks the
peripheral nerves, that is. those rad
iating from the spine. Pictures were
shown Of nerves Of patients who had
died, with part OF the nerve fibre
destroyed.
The poison first attacks the toes,
cutting them off from control. This
is called toe drop" Wrist drop"
comes next, and then loss of strength
In the hands. In all but the mildest
cases ability to stand is lost for nine
months or longer.
Many of the severe cases." said
DR.. Burley, NOV Is months after the
onset, cannot yet move a muscle be-
low the knee"
He estimated $4,000 cases of this

paralysis. He credited newspaper
publicity at the time Of the outbreak
with saving q great many more per-
sons from drinking the adulterated
material.
The poison was trio-ortho cresyl
phospate. but Dr.. Burley said its
source has not been fixed other than
a report that it was shipped from
New York city.

Method Is Evolved for
Killing Insect Pests

A mixture of kerosene and water in
a container placed a few inches under
an electric light has proved an effec-
tive means Of killing moth milers,
according to number OF persons who
have tried the experiment.
The insects are present in such
numbers this year as to prove a seri-
Gus annoyance in many local house
holds.
The light attracts the insects to
the mixture. those who have tried
the experiment say, and apparently
the vapor arising from it kills them.
An open dish placed six to eight
inches under an electric light and
containing three parts water to one
part kerosene was used.

The monkeys, a male and a female,

On two occasions when they were sep

and cheek tufts of the female grew suf-
flclently long to alter her appearance
for the worse. Both times when the
pair were reunited the male imme-

the eyebrow hairs and to bite off others
that were two long. One by one, he
pulled out practically all the long hairs
OF the cheek tufts, greatly changing his
mates appearance.
During this hair-pulling activity the
male frequently leaned back and sur

GIRL ENTERTAINER ASKS
$4,000 FOR BROKEN NOSE
Anna Greenberg Charges She suf-

Operation of Automobile.

The value of a broken nose to a
public entertainer and dancer was
placed at $4,000 in suit filed yester-
day in District Supreme Court.
In asking the damages Anna Green
berg, IT, of 927 G street, charges that
she suffered the injury through ncgli-
gent operation of an automobile by
Philip M. Baker, 1917 Spring road

Bile seat en- route to Bay Ridge, Nd,
June 81 last. She claimed sudden ap-
plication of the brakes caused her to
be thrown forward, breaking her nose
against the body of the automobile.
Besides the suffering caused by the
Disagreement, the plaintiff says large
lump on her nose, developed through
the injury, has damaged her attractive
ness and interferes with her profession
as an entertainer.
The suit was filed through her father,
Moritz Greenberg. She was represented
by Attorneys Milton Strasburger and
Charles Walker.
