FROM ECZEMA TO ASTHMA IS
 SlXTIcEN YEARS.

SIXTEEN YEAItS,
 Whom n very young child, writes Mrs E. s. F, had severe erup. .ions of eczema which by tho tlmo was 10 years old had completely disappeared---
 Now that Is n common history. The eczema which is SO trouble some In infancy nnd carly child hood spontaneously disappears by tho nge of ten or twelve yenrs---a coincidence which has made moro than one doctor or nostrum fam- ous. But, alas, not long after the eczemn hns gone tho patient bc- gins Co suffer from a now trouble, Mrs B. s. r. continues her narrn- tive:
 .... From that time on Two
 had tho fall variety of hay fever
 every year without exception. l
 can't recall whether this began
 before tho eczema had disnp.
 peared. l wns brought up in
 Maine, where tho hay fever TO.
 cured each ycgr, the only ex-
 ceptlon being when I could re.
 main nt tho BonSidc. Seven ycnrs
 GR0 l lived in Plttsburgh for n
 year, with no change in the hny
 fever. Then moved to Utica In
 the fnll md had n bad attack
 lnsting q month. Tho following
 winter l began taking calcium
 inctnto ns suggested by good old
 Dr Brady and have resumed
 taking 1t at intervals ever since,
 l haven't had n touch of hay
 foyer since, not even on my
 vacations In Maine. Always pro-
 cIOusly n part of my vacations
 was devoted Co being miserable
 with tho BnIfiioS, This may be
 Just your friend John j. Coln-
 cidcnce, but would Boonor
 credit tho calcium lnctnte.
 The instructions for taking the
 calcium lnctato for hny fever or
 for asthma arc given in n mono-
 graph on hny fever or ono on asthma, either of which will Do
 sent to any render who nHkS for
 it and th0uoghtfully incloscs n

 corroct addresH.
 When the infantIIe ocEcmn dlH. appears about tho ago of 1Ol years that very fact ln ground for Hiis- pecting food allergy nH the cause. And among the food BubstnnceS which have proved (by skin tests) arc egg white, chicken cereal, fish, even milk,
 About half of the children whOHo eezema or other manifestn- ton of food aIlergy or peculiar BonsltlvIty disappears at tho age of 10 years presently develop a now form of allorgy or scnsltlzn- ton to air-bone BubHtances--dus usi {, feathers. pollen, etc., and suffer the characteristic reactions to such substances, that is, hay fever or asthma.
 At present the most dependable remedy for relief of tho acute nt. tack, whether it Do hay fever, nsthma, eczema, hives, nngloneu. rotie edema. is cpincphrin, or as It is more commonly known, adro. nnlin.
 In every case the problem is 10 learn proclHely which substance or precipltates the attack, and this cnn Do dono only by the routine ski ntestB with purified extracts of the various foods, animal emanatiOns, pollens ,otc. When the specific exciting sub. stance has been determined in thls way, it may Do possible to exclude the substance from the patients or if that K not feasible then to remove the patient from contact witb the substance. 1 have mentioned here before and It is worthy of mention nRntn, the ease of tho physician's child where they learned eventually that it wasn't grandma's cat nt all. but silk that caused tho asthma. By silk fro mthe child'H environment thcy were able Co prevent most of the troubb.
 Then there's the case of the benedict whose spurious "hny fever" proved due to the orrls root he inhaled whom he kissed his bride. And eke the poor girl who paid for her chocolate cray. Ing with an attack of migrainc.
 And now I would like Co knew wisnt causes frequent head colds nnd tIlc cure. (Aaaric).
