Undulant Fever Closely Resembles Typhoid, Is Treated Similarly
CAROLINE CHATF1ELD

men who drank the milk, 13 disap- peared, 50 that it was impossible to determine whether they were infect ed. or the remaining 10, however, nine were found to have undulant fever.
 A person usually comes down with undulant fever 12 to 21 days after he has been exposed to the germ. The disease begins, like most il- fections, with feeling of sickness, chilliness, and fever; then there is weakness, sweating, and continued fever. Between periods of fever, the temperature may be normal.
 Since tlilS disease is not common, 1t sometimes is diagnosed as ty- phoid fever, influenza, tuberculosis, or malaria; and the doctor may even suspect inflammation of the appendix or the gallbladder. There are certain tests, however, which prove whether the disease is undulant fever. One of these is a blod test, which the laboratories of most state departments of health now are capable of performing sat- isfactorily. The doctor merely sends specimen of blood to the labor atory, which then determines whe- ther the patient has undulant fever.
 Prevention of the ailment de- bends, Of course, on knowledge of the manner in which 1t is trans mitted. If diseased animals are elim- mated from herds, possibly of in- lection will be reduced although not entirely hanished. Certainly pasteur- ization of milk is important-par- ticularly pasteurization of goat milk since this frequently is not under so strict control as is cows milk.
 The danger to workers is packing plants from infected hogs may be avelt ter by suitable sanitation.
 Because of the general resem- blance of undulant fever to ty- phoid. 1t is customary to treat the disease along the same lines and to prevent transmission by the same methods as are applied to typhoid fever.
 From time to time various vac- cines and serums have been de- veloped for the treatment of undu- lant fever victims. As yet, however. there seems to be no evidence which establishes definitely the value of any of these preparations.

 The woman who decides to dye her graying locks should have the original job done by an expert who knows what kind of dye to use and how to mix various shades so the hair, when dry, will be the color it originally was. It is best, of course, to return to him every two weeks. If this is impossible, she must get the same dye to use at home, and ask to be taught how to apply it.
 Remember, always. that 1t is a mistake for once-brown-h haired woman, now gray, to apply bright red or black or blonde dye. She should realize that her natural coloring is keyed to brown. The sensible procedure, is to dye the gray locks the color they once were.
 Nowadays, some of the most at tractive women of stage, screen and society do not think it necessary to dye their gray hair at all. It's smart-to-be-forty, and smarter still to admit it.
 Furthermore, white or gray hairs, provided they are clean and shin ing with health, soften the features of the face. Don't make an ap- pointment for a dye-job too hur- riedly. Weigh the advantages and disadvantages carefully.
 If you decide not to dye, brush every night with renewed vigor Shampoo often and correctly, rising meticulously, to avoid yellowish tinge. Get tonic to correct any special defect.
 Keep your coiffure neat and smooth and trim. Gray hair lends itself especially well to the new brushed upward effects-smooth on top and finished with soft curls or rolls.

Tennessee Groom
Keeps Bride of II
Chancellor Stewart Refuses to
Annul Marriage Because of
Child Brides Good

Chancellor A. T. Stewart, of Madi-
Vile, Tenn, has told lanky Homer
Peel, 80, that he could keep his ~
year-old bride, Geneva.
ct believe that society, law, and
everyone concerned will be better
served by the courts refusing to an
null this marriage" said the chan
cellor. 'There has undoubtedly been
a violation of the statute, but as a
social proposition, I can see but one
course open to me-"
Chancellor Stewart said he was
"unutterably opposed to such mar
riages, but explained that to annul
the marriage would be to turn the
child bride, Geneva, out of "house
and home with no place to CO."
Peel testified he tried to "get her
in an orphanage," but failed. It was
then that he married her, he said.
"But I thinks a powerful lot of
her and got mule and can make
her a tolerable living" he added. IF
you take her away she won't have
no place to CO."
Geneva followed him to the stand.
Frightened, she could only sob. Il
love him and he's going to build me
a house"
