Medical men say they have
found no way Of controlling the
ailment in its early stages and
treatment is directed toward re-
lieving the pain. Those attempts
usually include blocking or
freezing the affected nerves and
the use Of aspirin. codeine, thia-
min.
In most cases shingles results
from an attack on one Of the
nerves along the spinal column.
A series Of eruptions appears on
the skin and gradually works its
way around the waist toward
the stomach. Hence the medical
term perpes zoster. Greek for
creeping girdle, and the layman's
term shingles, a corruption Of
"cingulum," Latin for girdle.

affected area was in the area

Best Way to Kill Reaches and Ants

Cockroaches and ants are
the most difficult household
pests to control. Now you can
kill these pests with Johnston's
Super No-Roach.
No-Roach is a white viscous
substance which you apply with
a brush. Within minutes 1t
dries to form a colorless, odor-
less contact insecticide, that
stays effective for months.
Cockroaches
Apply No-Roach to cupboard
walls. baseboardS, near sink
and cabinets, on pipes, and
wherever you see cockroaches.
Ants
Brush No-Roach around table
legs and counter tops, across
window sills and door stills, and
across ant trails. Ants will not
cross the coating. Pour a few
drops into ant hills.
No-Roach is also effective
against resistant reaches, spi.
