stomach, aggravation of existing
ulcers, and disturbing changes
Of mood.
Such reports sent laboratory re-
searchers hunting for drugs that
could be taken in smaller doses,
thus lessening the chances of seri-
GUS side reactions. Discovery of
hydrocortisone, a close chemical
relative of cortisone, gave doctors
a drug that quickly eased agoniz-
ing soreness without severe side
effects when injected directly in
to the inflamed joint. When taken
by mouth, however, hydrocortisone
presented some problems.
A more promising advance has
been made with development of
the new super hormones" such as
prednisolone, compound effective
when taken by mouth in doses four
to five times smaller than the
earlier drugs.
Researchers have recently gone
one step further, combining pred
nisolone with an anti-anxiety
drug in a preparation called Alta
raxoid. By staving off the fears
and anxieties commonly associated
with arthritis, the new combina-
tion apparently reduces the pa
tents need for larger doses of
the hormone.
DR.. Peter j. Warter of Trenton,
N. j. has reported to a Boston
medical clinic that the new drug
enabled many patients to cut in
half their daily dose of predniso-
lone and thus reduce side effects.
He noted a striking" improve
ment in patients attitudes toward
their disease, their family, and
their social affairs.

Suggestion for getting chry-
santhemums to the show Sat-
urday:
Cutting-Snip early. at least
"a hours before show. Split
stems about inch and place
in water in cool. dark room. II
bloom is slow. place in lighted
room with 6 inches Of stem end
in warm water tup to ITO de-
greeO, and when suitably
opened plunge complete foliage
in cold water in dark room one
hour. If bloom is opening too
fast, plunge the full stem into
cold water for an hour IN a
dark room. Practically all water
absorption takes place in cut
and split stem ends.
Grooming-For slight dam
age TO a single leaf. cut off
close to stem with sharp blade.
Remove an occasional petal
with pair of tweezers. Remove
all spray, soil and dust by
washing plant. One may re-
move leaves below water level.
Avoid water directly on flowers.
Taking to show-Support and
protect blooms whether in jar
of water or in a box. Inter-
sperse waddings Of light paper
