World War ii recorded about 49,
900 amputations in the U. S. Mill
tary Service. During this same
period, more than 10000 of our
civilians suffered major amputa-
tions. Fifteen hundred soldiers
were blinded in World War II; in
the same period 10000 civilians
lost their sight.
"a new chemical to block off the
involuntary nerves Of bloodvessels
is now available under the name of
'Etamon Chloride Etamon does
not cure but seems to give tempo
rary relief in severe pain caused
by hardening of the arteries in the
legs, by shingles, by neuralgias af-
ter injuries or Burgers disease.
The new drug can be used only
under strict medical supervision.
"Dr. Frederick Hoelzel of the
Department of Physiology, Uni
versity of Chicago, gives interest
ing advice to make food restriction
easier:
81. The desire to eat can be kept
moderate and easy to control by
eating food relatively early in the
day. Large meals eaten late are
absorbed during the night when
the least food is utilized and the
excess is likely to be deposited as
fat.
"2. Our basal appetite can be
controlled to some extent by con-
trolling the retention OF fluids by
the body tissues; these, in time,
can best be limited by restricting
the salt intake, limiting the use Of
highly mineralized vegetab e 8
(spinach for example) and re-
stricting the intake Of carbohy-
drate (sugar, bread)."

A new drug, "Thenylene," has
been reported for hayfever and re-
lated allergic symptoms. Honey
has been found beneficial in the
treatment of heart diseases. A new
chemical which gives temporary
relief from severe pain connected
with certain neuralgias and other
illnesses is now available under
the name of "Etamon Chloride. "
These are some of the advances in
the medical field reported by DR..
Martin Gumpert in Redbook Mag
ozine for June:
" A report in the journal of the
American Medical Association de-
scribes the beneficial effect of
honey in the treatment of heart
diseases. The physician who con-
Quoted the experiment gave his
patients fifteen grams (about a
tablespoon) day, which resulted
in a good effect on the heart mus
Gle. There seems to be no scientific
explanation for these results be
yond the fact that honey is a
source of sugar, and sugar is good
for the heart muscle.
MANY heart patients carry
small ampules of amyl nitrate,
which by inhalation dilates the ar
teries. A British Navy surgeon re-
ports the cure of a severe attack
of hiccoughs which had lasted for
four days, with the vapor from one
of these ampules. Every familiar
remedy, including morphine and
oxygen, had been tried without
success. Finally the hiccoughing
stopped in less than a minute when
the victim inhaled the vapor from
one ampule of amyl nitrate. Ex-
periments with this form of treat
nent should not be attempted ex-
cept under a Doctors supervision.
"The group of so-called anti
histamine drugs, efficient against
hives, hayfever, and other allergic
symptoms, grows constantly. The
latest addition is 'Thenylene,
which is reported to be effective
for treatment of such allergies.

er, first settled in Pennsylvania
and afterward moved to Virginia,
where he built a residence and
called the place Waterford after
his native home. Here the son
Thomas for time, carried on the
business of cabinet maker. About
the year 1894, having married
Mary Brooke, daughter of Robert
Brooke, of Brooke Grove, he moved
to Maryland and engaged in mill
ing and merchandising.
Later in life, in connection with
two brothers-in-law, Caleb Bentley
and Isaac Briggs, who also mar
ried Brooke girls, he purchased the
site and erected cotton mills at
what came to be known as Triadel-
phia, now buried under the waters
of Triadelphia Lake.
While Moore was farming at
Brookeville on what is now the
Longwood School property, people
came from long distances to see
his farm and witness the deep
blowing with the mammoth pillow of
his invention, his fine stock of cat
tie in fields of red clover, his
meadows of timothy, fine fields of
corn, where the ground was yellow
with pumpkins. He was also IA
nous for his small boned hogs fat
tened on pumpkins, corn, and slop,
which according to an early story,
was boiled in a wooden box.
The State is greatly indebted to
Mr.. Moore for many improvements
in agriculture. He wrote treatise
on agriculture and another on ice
houses and refrigerators. During
the war with Great Britain from
1912 to 1916, he took charge of the
Union manufacturing works near
Ellicott's Mills as chief engineer.
