BLOOD PRESSURE RESPONSE TO COLD HELPS TELL CONDI- TION OF TUBERCULOSIS PATIENT

Anyone who has regularly vis- ted a relative or friend at a tuber- culosis sanatorlum learns the names of patients in adjoining rooms and wards, and can see the progress toward recovery or other- wise from wee-k to week.

Of course the physician can see the record of each patient-the range of temperature, the amount] of coughing, the amount, of daily} sputum, the number of times he breathes in a minute. and finally‘ the X-ray fllm which shows whether the tuberculosis process is; spreading, healing, or standing‘ still.

From the above he is able to tell the patient, or the fami'_v, just what to expect-three montln, six] months. or a year to recovery, or it may be just a matter of months before he passes away. notwith- standing all that can be done by way of food. fresh air, rest, or collajsing the lung by artificial air or by surgery to give it rest.

What- shottld help the patient to fight and family to hope, des- pite all the other signs, symptoms. and tests, ls recorded by Dr_ Allan S. Kennedy of Mountain Sani- tiorlum, Hamilton. Canada. ln the Canadian Medical Association Journal. Dr. Kennedy states that the blood pressure-low or high- will glve the physician a correct] idea of the progress of the patient. l

"It is an accepted fact that active and progres ing tuber- culosis of the lungs is accompanied by lowering the blood pressure.“

“It. ls generally believed that tuberculosis patients with high blood pressure have very little tuberculosis, or, in any case, tend to heal the tubemttlosis more quickly than people with normal or 10w blood pressure."

The response of the blood pres- sure to cold-a test taken every few months, wlll show whether or not the patient ls improving.

Dr. Kennedy outlines the method u=ed on 80 patients to obtain the biood presure response to cold - puttlng hand and wrLst of one side in near-freezing water for 25 sec- onds-while blood pressure is taken on other arm_

If the blood pressure response la poor-does not increase a definite amount-the patient is not. improv- lng; If the response is good the patfent is putting up a winning flght against tuberculosis.

A MOORLAND GARDEN

The heather twines Its dusky links Around this garden plot,

Where foxgloves grow, and homely

plnks,

And street forget-me-not.

My garden, stolen from the moor, Has thrust. the heather back,

And though the sol] Is wild and

P001‘.

Today there ls no lack

Of honeysuckles by the wall, And roses In their prime;

Bun, dark and silent. round l-hem all. The heather bides its time. Beyond the foxgloves and the pinks,

Those children of a. day.

The heather tv/‘nes its dusky links, And who shall say It nay?

Its ancient. hold ls not. less sure Though now It. broods apart,

For gardens stolen from the moor Have heather at their heart.

So while the honeysuckles blow, And while the nases climb.

While seasons come and seasons go, The heather bldes its tIme.

Ministerial Salaries

(Exchange)

Th9 mlnlst/erlal salaries that Mr. cle Valera greatly reduced as an economy measure when he came Into power are to be replaced now that. he return; again to power ln the Dell. Mr._d_e_ Valera cut the salaries Iii the first Instance as a gesture of rebuke to the implied extravagance of his predecessor, Mr. Oosgrave. His ministers must have found from the drains on their offlclal pockets that Mr. Cos- graveis scale of salaries may not have been excessive, and have co- erced Mr. de Valera In the fainter flush of 1; less victorious election to revert to his opponent's scale of ministerial pay. It. was held flve year; ago that no president of the executive council (or pr‘me minister) was worth $12,500. WhICh Wks then his pay. and that no other minister ln the cabinet was worth $8.570. his current xe- munerntlon. Mr. de Valera ac- cepted. Instead, only $7.500. and had h], nunlstiers take $5000 each.

This was In keeping with the economical policy Mr, de Valera decked out In hi; words 1m that or the “hair shirt."

We stated that on the eve of the Nova Sootla elections 1m ex- temion of the lobster season was

granted. This is denied by the Transcript. That. there was an extension of the lobster season,

with or without the knowledge of the minister, is beyond que tlon. l Surely the minister ought to know ! when there 1s an extensicm of a fishing sea-on; if he does not know what. is going on In his own de- partment, it. i; just too bad»
