PENICILLIN mas proved to be
such wonderworker against Sc
rious general infections that every
one VIII be glad when it can be
added to the family medicine chest
As weapon against infected cuts,
burns, and other skin disorders.
Pcnicillin might be compared to
a human genius, marvellous in his
own line, but temperamental and
unstable. and requiring special
handling. The problem has always
been to get it to stay put IN an
easily applied substance.
Cream o. Ointment
Now, Drs. Philip Greey and
Harvey d. Hcbb Of Canada report
that penicillin can be successfully
added to a cream or to an ONT
ment and thus. spread directly on
infected skin to hasten its cure.
These physicians made up var
ious creams and ointments, some
of lanolin, some of wax, some of
stearic acid, some of mineral oil,
sterilized them and then added
penicillin. In number of the
preparations, the penicillin seemed
to retain its potency or power to
heal, for two or three weeks when
stored at cold temperatures.
Used Promptly
None of the preparations ap-
peared sufficiently stable to per-
nit manufacturing large quanti-
ties at a time. In other words, it
would appear advisable, if a peni-
cillin cream or ointment Is to be
used, that it be made up fresh and
used promptly.
Care must also be taken to keep
penicillin creams and olntments
sterile, since molds may get into

Leighton, your former husband?"
I asked, completely at a loss.
She nodded. Yes. Hes with the
Army. In Burma. Or perhaps it's
China. I'm not sure. They didn't
tell Polly, in Washington. Rut ne'u
| come. I've cablcd him."
1t sounded fantastic. You don't
really imagine the Army Will send
him home from Burma, or China,
just because YOU cabled him to
come ?" I asked dumhfounded.
"Oh. bat they VIII! Dave will
make them let him come. l said it
WAS important and had to do with
the wrong I've done him." she tolG
me with simple conviction.
| It made lot of no sense. please
be a little clearer" l begged. What
was this wrong you're talking
about, and when did you send that
cable ?"
She ignored the first part of my
question.
The day I moved IN here. Polly
sent it for me, through someone in
Washington" she explained. He
was sure Dave would forgive me
and take me back once he UNDER
stood l hadn't actually been-un-
faithful to him. But l don't think
he was right. After all, l was ter
ribly in love with him-With him,
and would have married him after
the divorce if-if he'd still wanted
me-"
Her jumbled talk pointed so
clearly to a matrimonial miX-up,
for moment l was afraid I'd been
on the wrong track and there was
no link between Brenda and our
murders. But then 1 remembered
that Polly had sent her cable-and
had been poisoned the next night.
And SO 1 said patiently: Look,
Brenda, your private affairs don't
concern me. But if your story.
| whatever it is, can shed light on
Margot's and your friend Polly's
death, please tell it to the police
without waiting for your former
husbands return"
She remained silent for quite a
while; just sat glancing down at
her hands that lay. ringless and
loosely folded. in her lap. And at
last 1 host my patience and urged:
We'll? Can it or can't it," /
Then she said haltingly: u
| don't know. First l was sure there
was no connection at all. But when
you said my furniture was here in
your apartment became-Worried.
Only l couldn't-I can't believe that
he-he had no reason. He had all

She broke off with a gasp. Her
hands flew to her lips as if to push
back the words, and she looked
frightened to death. {;
1t didn't make me let her OF.
"Who is he, and for what didn't he
have a reason?" prompted.
The blood rushed up In her face
all the way to her hair. Hes the
man 1 was in love with and for
whom I've done Dave a great
wrong" she explained In a choked
whisper. Butt don't even like.

Penici||in in Ointment Base

them and destroy the penic;llin.
This is done by not putting any
thing which is not sterile into this
jar containing the penicillin prep
aration.
When penicillin cream was
spread on infected burns, it was
found that it began to lose its po.
tency after about 4S hours. Hence,
a daily change Of dressings would
appear necessary, at the least
every two days.
In impetigo. a skin disease. and
in infections of the beard, good
results were obtained.
Sinus Infections
Penicillin cream was also used
for treating sinus infections. In
doing this. the doctors injected a
small amount of the penicillin
cream into the affected sinus every
two or three days. Before each in
lection the cream remaining from
the previous treatment was
washed out with salt water.
In a few cases. a skin rash oc-
Cured on the area where the peni-
cillin was applied Since it would
appear that these patients We're
sensitive either to the penicillin
or something in the cream base,
the chances for development of
this skin irritation should be borne
in mind whenever penicillin
cream is to be used for ten days or
longer.
Penicillin in the home medicine
cabinet is still in the future but
it can be stated that doctors are
overlooking no chance to make full
use of the great new healing drug.
AS time goes on, it is possible that
new methods of applying it will
be learned, and that new uses for
the methods we now have will ha
discovered.
