Treatment is aimed at preventing
serious anemia and stopping red

suffice while in severe cases, the
doctor attempts to substitute normal
blood for the affected infants blood

this is meant q gradual exchange of
one pint of blood from a donor for
one pint of the infants blood so
that the infant is left with about
10 per cent of his original blood and
80 per cent from the donor
AS result of this recent under

The Wilton construction is a more
expensive type of carpet construc-

pile yarn usually WooD appears on
the surface Colors which do not
appear at a particular point in the

Chenille carpets are the most ex-

are also the most versatile of ma
chine-made rugs The appearance
is similar to an Administer. but the
rug is thicker and the back is quite
different 1t has a heavy WOODEN
back giving a greater amount of

CARPETS

The purchasing of carpets is an l.
tenn of major expense in the house
hold budget. Information about
types of carpet may be a help in
planning the purchase
Administer rugs offer moderate
price, durability and good appear
ance. They can be identified by a
heavilyribbed surface on the back
which can be bent or rolled only in
a lengthWise direction. The num-
Der of ridges on the back is an indi-
cation of the number of pile tufts
per square inch on the surface and
therefore one factor in determin-
ing the quality Nearly all of the
yarn used for pile appears on the
surface of the rug The number of
ridges on the back aries from four
to nine in one inch of fabric.
A small number of ridges should
be balanced by longer pile and
larger yarn in the tuft The ratio
between length of pile, number of
tufts per square inch and size of
yarns used is an important factor
in durability. Interpreting this
formula, carpet of average pile
length of three -eighths of an inch
in medium quality rug of seven
row construction should have about
fifty-six tufts per square inch
Many of the newer, casual-typc,
shaggy-pile surfaces have only four
ridges per inch. For durability in
this rug, the length of the tuft
should be almost twice that used for
shorter pile
A velvet-type carpeting is used
where there are budget limitations,
but is constructed to give maximum
service for the investment made
The velvet construction is the sim
plest form of carpet construction
and usually has a tightly woven pile
of shorter length All the pile yarn
is on the surface Suffer yarns,
often of heavy jute, give body and

TREATMENT FOR Rh BABIES

The blood of two parents some
times carry different Ri factors.
When the mother carries a negative
Rh factor and the father positive
one, the baby may inherit the posi-
tive Ri ThisCauSes trouble.
During the last few months OF
pregnancy. there will be am inter
change of blood cells between the
mother and the infant The mo-
theirs negative Ri blood may react
TO produce a substance which will
tend to destroy the Ri positive
blood of the baby She becomes
sensitive to the positive factor This
sensitivity is usually not passed to
the first baby. 1t is the second and
additional babies who are to get the
blood reactions
This may not always happen
When it does, the reactions in the
baby occur shortly after birth and
leads to anemia and jaundice in the
infant
The only prevention of such reac-
ions is prevention in marriage
Somehow love doesn't allow much
thought for checking the Rh factors
of theindividuals concerned. The
next best procedure is recognition of
the problems before birth and be-
fore any Serl>ds reactions occur and
when treatment of the baby can be
accomplished
