SILENCE HIDES
ETHIOPIAN ROW
FROM OUTSIDERS

PARIS, July 16. UR)-An air of
mystery today cloaked conditions in
rain soaked Ethiopia, where an Ital-
ian army is trying to consolidate its
victory over a country of some
100000 people never before con-
quered.
Ignoring circumstantial Italian
denials, French agencies persisted in
their report of a state approaching
chaos in the neighborhood of Adds
Ababa and Harar, the two great
cities.
The Fournier agency again re
ported Marshal Rodolfo Graziani,
"viceroy" of the country, was ser
iously wounded. His wounds. it was
alleged, were suffered when Ethiopi-
ans attacked Adds Ababa, inflicted
heavy losses on the Italian troops
and impelled foreigners to seek ref
uge in barricaded legations as they
did before the Italian arrival.
A strong detachment of Italians
were ambuShed and masacred in
the Danakil region in the east, the
agency said.
"a government spokesman at
Rome denied as silly" yesterday re
ports from Djibouti, French Somali-
land, that Graziani had been
wounded and that Ethiopians were
advancing on Adds Ababa and
Harar.)

FEAR IN CHINA
GROWING DAILY

HONG KONG, July 16. WP)-
Chinese sources expressed fear to-
day that civil war between armies
of the Central and Cantonese arm

from Canton to the potential bat

sampanS in the river in the Canton
area were commandeered by army
authorities.
1t was reported that one large
group of the Cantonese troops in
Kwangtung province refused to
fight the Central government men
and began a retreat.
Canton currency slumped today
because of the serious reports.
There were predictions the Can.
tonese, nominally subservient to the
Central government, might form
completely separate government If
necessary to retain power in the
southwest.

AGAINST PNEUMONIA
 The other day I tried to explain that the state of nutrition, rather than mere robust or muscular strength, determines an individuals susceptibility to or immunity from pneumonia and other respiratory in fections. To the layman this will seem more plausible in respect to diphtheria or influenza than 1t will in respect to pneumonia, for the popular mind cannot readily be dis abused of the notion that pneu- monia is somehow due to cold and wet. Not that the nation is so far behind the times, for only thirty years ago Dr. Osler wrote in the doctors bible" that "there can be no question as to the close aSsocia- ton of pneumonia with exposure" In the same edition Dr. Osler with admirable restraint confined him. self to the remarks that "diphtheria is most prevalent in the cold autumn weather" and that "the outbreak of pidemics of influenza is independent of all seasonal and meteorological conditions, except perhaps sunshine. The worst have been in then colder seasons of the year." Up to his dy- ing day Osler clung tenaciously to the belief that cold was an import ant cause of these and other dis eases, although even thirty years ago he accepted what was then the current thory of physicians, namely. that "cold is now regarded simply as factor in lowering resistance of the bronchial and pulmonary tis- sues. In Dr. Osler's last days he invariably attributed his attacks of bronchitis to bad weather or cold lecture room.
 While extraordinary muscular de- velopment or strength is no protec- ton against pneumonia or other res- piratory infection, indeed many tend to handicap the natural immunity process, 1t seems evident that proper physical training favors immunity, since physical training certainly promotes good nutrition, that is, good posture, circulation, oxygena- ton in tissues and cells, better me- tabolism. In other words, one who gets fair amount of daily exercise. whether by walking. playing some game, doing muscular work or for- maj exercise is less likely to contract pneumonia or other respiratory in- lection than js one who avoids all physical activity and leads sed- entary, lazy life. Remember that the immediate effect of any kind of muscular exercise, work or play, is increased absorption of oxygen in the blood and tissues, and oxygen is the vital need of the body tissues in fighting infection or intotxica ton (toxemia). AS Prof. Yandell Hen- derson has 50 well shown, in prac-
The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-12-07

tically all fatalities, except death by burning, the cause of death is an- oxia (asphyxia or lack of oxygen in the body tissues or cells).
 My prescription for any one who wishes to enjoy the highest attain able degree of immunity against pneumonia and other respiratory infections is two miles of oxygen three times day, on the hoof.
 Proof of Parentage
 If there is 8 question of percentage would 1t be necessary to make a blood test of the third person Can any physician make such tests? (Mrs. 8. P)
 Answer--Any physician who is equipped to make laboratory blood examinations can do blood typing test. Blood typing will prove only that given person may be the par ent of given child or that the given person could not possibly be the child's parent. It will prove that the given person is the child's par ent.

 Answer--It has been used with quite satisfactory results for infiam- nation of the lining of the cervix and for endometritis. Oh, Come, Now, Daughter
 Please mail me your remedy for blackheads and pimples. If 1t clears my face from that horrid disease, do you know what I'll do? I'll say prayer for you. But if 1t doesn't, I'll commit suicide. mean 1t. I'd rather die. (E. ZD
 Answer--I know--I had 'em when I was your age. and 1t must be harder for 6 girl But start the prayers--I need 'em. The good news is on the way. If there is any hitch in the prayers, write Ole Doc Brady again about 1t. and we'll fix 1t. Morbid Is Right

Paris Styles

United Press Stan Correspondent
 Paris (UP)-Shades of early war days arc recalled in the new mld- season collections in Paris. Beading of all varieties appears everywhere as the most popular form of trim ming.
 Wool is particularly smart for afternoon as well as cocktail and dinner wear. and of necessity must be made into rather simple garments. Tailored styles are best suited for the wool materials-and almost invariably the trimming de- pends on beading of one sort or an- other.
 Wool evening gowns, tailored from soft, lightweight woolen nia- terials are accompanied by short bolero jackets or by full-length woolen capcs. The whole front of these bolero Jackets frequently IS embroidered with brilliant bead spangles and beads.
 In 1912 and 1914 the smartest eye- ming gowns were of pale pink and were heavily embroidered with gold beads. This same fashion has been revived for formal evening wear. Elaborate designs of gold bead flow CTS are splashed over pink crepe evening gowns which are caught in at the waist by fancy belts of gold kid that are matched by high-heel- ed. open-work gold kid sandals.
 Afternoon dresses frequently are trimmed with heavily beaded sleeves. The broad shoulder line is no longer considered smart, but

become infected-and such infec- tions are much more common than you might think-the victim has frequent colds, constant coughs, and a good many other general disturb ances of the body.
 Infectious germs get into the sim uses through opening in the nose. and infect membranes which line the wall of the sinuses. When the opeing of the sinuses into the nose becomes blocked, pain and head ache rcsplt, and the absorption Of infectious material causes fever.
 Whereas an ordinary cold will clear Up in from three to five days, infection within the sinuses will persist for weeks, sometimes for months.
 The doctor diagnoses sinus in- lection by cleansing the nose Of It's gccretions, then shrinking the mem- branes of the nose by applying applying adrenalin or ephedrine.
 He may then look through the openings of the Sinuses to sec whether infectious material is com ing out. If he sees this material is coming out. If he sees this mate rial coming from the sinuses, or il he sees signs of inflammation, such as swelling and redncss, and If there is pain and fever, he is likely to be- lieve that the sinuses arc infected.
 He may, however, confirm his diagnosis by taking an X-ray pie ture of the sinuses, and also by picture of the sinuseS, and also by trans s-illumination. In the process of s-illumination, the patient is taken into a dark room, and a light is placed inside his mouth or under his eyes. If the sinuses are clear, the light will be seen to pass into them and through them. If however, there is Inflammation or infection in the sinuses, they will appear dark and obseructed.
 Tn exceedingly doubtful cases, when the physician believes there may be growths, such as polyps or tumors in the sinuses, 1t is also pos sible to meet an opaque substance into She sinuses and then to make an x-ray picture.
 These advances in diagnosis have shown us how much more frequent infiammations and infections of the slnuses actually are than was for merly thought to be the case.
