DRUG FINDINGS
ARE DISCLOSED
Penici lin, S%treptomycin
Affect Upon Mental Abili-
ties Is Shown
BY HOWARD w. BLAKESLEE
Associated Press Science Reporter

Associated fIcSS SCIcACC ASSPoAsSA
BOSTON, Dec. 28-P)-Evidence
that penicillin and s~treptomycln
decrease mental abilities tempo
rarily was reported to the Ameri-
can Association for the Advance
ment of Science today by DR..
David I. Macht, of Sinia hospital,
Baltimore.
He described the actions of white
rats that were given large doses
of each of these new drugs. The
animals ability to find their way
through circular mazes was I'M
paired for two or three days. They
also became poor at walking tight
ropes and climbing vertical ropes.
There was no evidence of perma-
met mental or nerve damage. On
the contrary, after a while the
rats developed a tolerance, so far
as their nerves were concerned.
The drugs no longer interfered so
much with their cunning coordl-
nation.
This tolerance appears to be like
the resistance to either drug which
doctors have found in giving penl-
cillin and streptomycin to human
beings. The germs after a time
get so that it takes more Of the
drug todestroy them.
Rutin, the new medicine that
comes from barley. and is reported
to prevent cerebral hemorrhage
and similar internal bleeding in
many cases had its sefety question
ed by M. B. Plungian and James
C MUNICH of Temple University
School Of Pharmacy Roosevelt's
death was due to this kind OF
brain bleeding.
The medice was first discovered
In lemon peel in 1896, when 1t was
thought to be a vitamin. Later it
was found in violets. tobacco,
xorsythia and other plants, and
the best source was in buckWheat.
It's effect is to strengthen the small
capillary veins which in high blood
pressure sometimes becomes SO
fragins that they break. First re-
ports were that IS to 20 per cent
of such patients were helped and
that MANY had their lives saved.

DEAR MARY HAwORTTI: I am Q girl l7 and I would like your ad- vice on my problem. My married siS- ter and her two children live with us and each time I ask mother If may go out, my sisters opinion is con- suited.
 This annoyS me very much and If I say anything, we always get on the subject of how much I make on my after-school job, and how much I give mother. What this has to do with my going out is beyond my knowledge, but nevertheless, that's the way 1t is.
 Considering the fact that 90 to school all day and then directly to work, and am home only to sleep and on Saturday and Sunday morn ingS, I think do my share. pay mother $5 a week, which is almost half my salary. Also, very seldom eat at home and on Saturdays and Sundays I Cet up early and help with household duties.
 I buy my clothes. school supplies, lunches and anything else I need out of my earnings. And I do my own ironing. Yet mother lets my sister tell me what I can or cannot do; and also lets her fuss at me about ''how little' board pay. This is the situation and am getting tired of it. Please tell ne what to do. ".

 Find Butter
 Unavailable

Housewives were reminded of the dark war days this morning, as practically all of the city's markets reported they had no butter. Most restaurants during the past few days have again reverted to substi- tutes such as jam and cottage cheese.
 Though rationing of butter was lifted late in November, trade sources said this morning that the butter supply was lower than 1t had been In years. The manager of one of the city's largest markets reported shipments, comprising 70 to 50 eases when the supply is normal, have dwindled to four or five cases of late.
 To promote fair distribution many merchants have been rationing but ter by alloting a quarter pound to a customer.
 Local retailers explained the short- age has been placed on butter while no ceilings exist on heavy cream. At present, butter fat, which ranges from 75 cents to $l a pound, is being used for the manufacture of ice cream and heavy cream since those items bring higher retail prices than butter. Butter production has become unprofitahle, merchants said.

est on those trouble spots. Lie on the right side. your head pillowed on the right arm which is stretched flat on the floor above the head. Steady yourself by resting your left hand on the floor in front of you. Raise your legs so they just clear the iloor, and swing them in scis- sors motion back and forth for ten full counts. Reverse and do the same on the left side. Gradually increase the number until you are slipping 1t off 20 times on each side. This exercise pummels those fatty pads with the vigor of . Swedish InaSseuse.
 Standing erect again, hands on the hips, feet together, swing the left leg out in front as high as you can. Bring the leg back to the floor and swing it straight out to the side as far as possible. Alternate with the right leg IS times, and gradually increase to 25 times.
 To get the most out of this ex- ercise, keep your back straight and your knees stiff. And don't dilly daily with it-this one requires plenty of pep.

The seasons fashion emphasis is on the rounded hipline not the bulging one. Don't count on the new dresses with hip fullnesS to conceal an extra bit of padding on the thighs-they may accentuate it.
 If instead of having Q graceful curving line from waist to knee, which movie star Jane Russell can boast, your hipline nipples with an excess of fatty tissue on the thighs, it's time for you to start special exercises, and do them faithfully every day.
 Timber up with a few high kicks and be as energetic about it as a chorus girl. At first, you may want to brace yourself by putting a hand on the back of a chair. Swing the left leg forward as high as you can with the knee stiff and the toes straight; then swing it backward as far as you can. Do this Is times with each leg.

QUESTIONS and ANSWERS ASepsis in Dentistry

hDLRoAS bbh OGMtAotAy
 old dentist makes us wait sev. eral weeks for appointment. I found another, recently returned from service, who took care of me the day after this new one wastes a good deal of time, it seems to me, in repeated washing of his hands. (W. R.)
 Answer-That's the way more dentists should waste" more time, if you ask me. Too often the den. tist is content to "sterilize" instru~ ments with a dash of some "an- tisepetic" instead of boiling or steam sterilizinG them. Too often he leaves the chair to do this or that, tele- phone, shake hands with a visitor, even examine mouth, and, to save time, resumes work without wash ing his hands. That sort of dental service is a fraud at any price.

 We had no clerk. My father had intended to spend all his free time in the office, but measles and whooping cough were ram. pant.

contrasted with her heznmed-in, tied down. special dependent status.
 Is she widow? Is her husband in in the Army? Is she trying to man. age on inadequate allotment pay? In any event, assume she has come back home and pooled resources with your mother to make both ends meet. And I gather she resents your busy, Self-sufficient absence, for the most part, from their neck deep immersion in nickel-Squeezing
 Her obSeSsional carping about your $5 weekly contribution to the family treaSury-which I consider a fine showing from a schoolgirl who Is self-providing to the extent you are-is an obscure form of ax-grind- ing. It suggests that she realizes the hardship her presence with the children works on your mother; and in guilty self-extenuation is trying to persuade all that the rerve-wrack- ing financial pinch stems from your alleged Selfishness and not from her thrice-burdensome return.
 The fact that your mother has eI1- powered her to censor your activi- ties suggests to me that your mother feels chronically too weary, worried and confused these days to review your plans and petitions as carefully as she should. Obviously this trans fer of authority has been most in- discreet, provoking more trouble than any At might prevent.

 When that time comes, say two or three years hence, if your dis gruntled sister is still on the preGn- ises making a nuisance of herself. trying to run your life and trying also to rob 1t of joy with uncivil remarks, then I would say: Don't put up with the situation any long CT.
