purpose, none of them ever came
into general use. They did not de-
serve success; until 1912 knowl-
edge of the principles of anesthe-
STA was in the most primitive state;
1912 saw the first use of ether dur
ing a surgical operation. and a
few years later every surgeon in
Europe and America was using it.
Naturally all kinds of chemicals
which might possibly be anesthetic
were sought. DR.. Simpson was
told by an Edinburgh pharmacist
of the anesthetic properties of
chloroform. He tried it out on
himself and found it induced I'M
consciousness quickly, so he intro
duced it into obstetric practice.
ChlOroform Not Ideal
As soon as this became known,
there was a great deal of silly
talk, making objections to pain
less childbirth on the ground that
it was against nature; but when
Queen Victoria took chloroform
during the birth Of her last child,
a precedent was set and the Cos
sipy tongues were silenced.
Chloroform, however, is by no
means an ideal anesthetic for la
Dor pains. 1t can only be used in
the last stage and it dulls rather
than abolishes cramps.
At the beginning of this CEN
fury the phrase, twilight sleep"
was heard everywhere. 1t applied
to the use of drug that was given
hypodermically. But like many
such agents then and subsequently
used, it carries a distinct hazard
to the child.
The principal difficulty with
finding an ideal anesthetic for la
Dor is that by the nature Of such
things, if it stops the pains it also
stops the progress Of labor to ex-
pei the child.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
r. ST. am troubled with mus
cular rheumatism. Would it affect
the stomach and bowels?
Answer: Muscular rheumatism
is a name which is given TO a con-
dition that is usually something
else. In fact, aside from the stiff
ness of muscles which comes on
after over-exercise and exposure
to cold, there is no such thing as
muscular rheumatism. 1t does not
affect the stomach or bowels.

Warning Of Attack
Parliament Is Cautioned
Against False Orders
As in Case Of Norway

STOCKHOLM, Jan. 10. - Prime
Minister Per Albin Hansson's warn
ing of a possible attack on Sweden
and his demand for the utmost de-
Tense" in such an eventuality was
made against a background most
serious" the influential newspaper
Dagens Nyheter said today.
The Prime Minister warned the
Swedish Parliament yesterday OF
the possibility of an attack and said
beyond any doubt we will defend
ourselves"
He cautioned against the posi-
bility of false orders being issued. as
happened in Norway, and said that
if An attack came every one would
have to join in defending the coun-
| try, the only remaining neutral ma
ton in Northern Europe.
The Dagens. Nyheter said the
country must be ready to meet
blitz attacks, especially by enemy
air forces, and added that "Swede
have enough courage to face reality
even the reality of war"
Hanson emphasized that precau-
tons had been taken against fifth
colllmnists, but said there was q
possibility the conflict would spread
rapidly and that the danger for
Sweden had not passed.
