True success Story

I7 I'. H. MMAIIII:

t General James Wolfe, the hero -

of Quebec. was born in Kent, Eng- land, January 2nd. 1727. Compara- tively little is known about his Mrly ghildhcod. but I like to pic- ture him as a small child ecamp- sring through the house, playing In the garden with his dog, or per- haps sailing a fleet of toy boats on the waters of a neighboring brook. But we do know that little James and his chum George Warde often fought mimic battles. am- bushed each other and solved many military problems. We know, too, that James Wolfe was a delicate person, that his brother Edward died of onsumption. When Wolfe was ordered to Canada he preferred to leave home without saying farewell to his mother because he felt she would suffer more from the formality of a last visit. This desire to avoid show was characteristic of Wolfe, even as a boy. - The story goes that after the battle of Cuiloden Moor, Wolfe and his commander, the Duke of Cumberland, were riding over the battlefield. Observing a Highland- er smiling defian-ce at him. the Duke turned to Wolfe and said "Wolfe, shoot me that rascal," said nineteen-year James, "I can never consent to become an ex- ecutioner". Such manly qualities as these made his soldiers love him: he was always thinking of their interest. 0

I O Lacking a decent education he started studying in Scotland,

though he was acting as Com- mander of the troops in a great city. Every day for several years he went to Glasgow University to study Latin and Maths.

The outbreak of the Seven Years War in 1756 gave Wolfe his golden opportunity. He took part in an expedition against Rochefort, a seaport of France. The expedition met with failure, but Wolfe dis- tinguished himself by his good sense and decision, when other officers of this regiment engaged in useless argument.

Next Wolfe turned his attention to America. "In America." wrote Pitt, "England and Europe were to be fought for". The French under Montcalm had taken Fort William Henry and were pressing the Eng- lish very hard. Radical measures were necessary. so on the lfth of February 1759, the expedition against Quebec set sail from Eng- land, arriving at Halifax the fol- lowing April. Every reader knows the rest of the story-the waiting. the setbacks. the bitter quarrels -with his brigadiers. and the cry of victory on the Plains of Abra- ham.

Thwarted by countless difficult- lea Wolfe's sterling qualities came to the fore: "quick and sure" was

ANOTHER TREATMENT FOB NIGHT CRAMP

one of the things most of us do not understand is why a drug, or form of treatment may be so suc- cessful in one individual and not in others. Yet if we think about it, we know that what. is one man's food is another man's poison. that is. a food that agrees with one in- dividual may greatly disagree with another.

I have written before about the drug benadryl and how it has given relief to marry patients suf- fering with asthma when other forms of treatment have failed Recently I wrote about the use 0' benadryl in Parkinson's syndrome (paralysis agitans, palsy). That benadryl is helping cases of night cramp in the calf is now reported.

For years the treatment of night cramp in calf. ankle, and foot has been quinine and quinidine. A dose of three to live grains of quinine or quinidlne usually loosens up the cramp and relieves pain. or pre- vents cramp and pain if taken be- fore patient goes to sleep. The cause of night cramp is not known as it occurs in patients who have no disturbance of arteries and veins.

In The Journal of the American Medical Association, Dr. Meyer Nolde. Philadelphia, states that when quinine and quinldine failed to relieve one of his patients he gave him benadryl, 50 mg. at bed- time. This treatment prevented cramps completely for over :i year The patient had previously had no relief from night cramp for a per- ton of 17 months while taking var- ious drugs. Dr. Naide got the idea of using benadryl from its success inlthe treatment of several cases of Parkinson's disease.

Because of the success of ben- adryl in this first case of night cramps. Dr. Naide and his associa- tes decided to use it in to other cases. All 16 reported complete freedom from night cramps. In fact, in some patients the night cramps did not return even after

benadryl treatment was discon- tlnued. one satisfactory point about

benadryl is that it causes drowsi- ness and the patient soon gets off to sleep. It is this drowsiness to which some patients with hay fev- er and asthma object. If. then. the usual remedy, quinine or qulvridine does not prevent night cramps, ask your physician about the use of benadryl. ALLEIIGY
