COLD COLOR TESTS

The new dye which shows in d

organisms or to irritations OF aller'
gy will be useful in diagnosing sinus
trouble.
According to Dr.. French X Han
sci OF ST. Louis, about u per cent
of the children who have recurring
chronic colds and bronchitis are a.
fected with an allergy rather than
an infection Allergy is a sensitiy-
ity to a foreign substance.
Many unnecessary tonsll opera
tions are performed on children
whose allergic colds are mistaken

portant cause among persons SUI
fering with chronic nasal and sinus
troubles. 1t Is thought 10 be an in
lection and is treated accordingly.
About 10 per cent of the general
population suffers from allergies.
An additional so per cent has aller-
gic attacks now and then. This Is
for all allergies, not merely colds.
Ragweed pollen, which the public
regards as the only cause OF hay
fever, is probably the biggest cause
OF other allergies because these
other troubles have better chance
10 fasten themselves upon a person
during a ragweed attack. Ragweed
sensitizes victims to other sub
stances.
