Cargling As Treatment
For Sore Throat, Cold

of the throat intended, and that is
by looking in the throat after the
gargle. IF anyone will take the
trouble to examine the throat of a
person who has just gargled with
a suspension of barium, he will find
that every part Of the mouth and
throat, including the tonsils, the
soft palate and the pharynx, is
coated. With the "commotion that
occurs" during gargling, can any
thing else be expected?
Methylene Blue Won't Stick
His reply to the methylene blue
experiments is that you cannot
make methylene blue stick to ton
sils or the soft palate. It will dye
the tongue, but that is all. There
fore, the methylene blue expert
ments are entirely discredited.
Finally, we have the advice OF
DR.. Fl. L. Swain, Of New Haven,
that the thing that is needed is in
struction in expert gargling. His
advise is that 1.-THE person should
first swallow the fluid he is about
to gargle, with the mouth wide
omen. head well back, and then
gargle it around. as is the usual
practice, as long as his breath will
permit"
Thc rc:nt seems to be that it IS
unnecessary to make the many
melodious sounds as Of babbling
brook in a great hurry, in order to
do good gargling, but to move the
a1id around as much as possible
with the muscles of the throat and
then, as you let the air bubbles
come through, throw the head for
ward so that some Of the fluid will
go out through the nose so that,
in this one comprehensive act, you
will reach the mouth, pharynx,
throat and all the accessible parts
Of the nose.
The purpose Of gargling is not
so much to introduce an antiseptic
flI1id. as to introduce a hot fluid
and produce Contamination and
thus relieve Inflammation as we do
with hot water bags and all other
forms Of heat.
The best solution for gargling
is the simplest-hot salt solution. !
The final judgment as to wheth-
er your gargling does any good is
whether it makes you more COM
Portable or not.

Some pairs failed to reach this
contract because of an interfer-

was the overcall after the opening

clubs, South raised the spades and
the West players merely rebid the
diamonds. as with only one stopper

East felt obliged to pass this.
