MENINGITIS INFLAMJKATION OF THE BRAIN NEARLY ALWAYS CURABLE
mum; epidemic of 1918-19, 1 number of cases of meningitis (inflammation of the brain) were sent to our base hos- pital. Despite all forms of treat- ment, including removal of some of the fluid from the spinal col- umn. only one of our patients re- covered. Two chums from a field hospital arrived at our hospital to- gether and went out of hospital a week later. one dead and the other fully recovered. It is not to be wondered at that physicians and nurses dread the flu and its con- pequences.
Fortunately. today meningitis is not the dread toe of 1818-19. In the Journal of the American Medi- cal Association, Dr. Hattie E. Alex- ander, New York, states: "As a re- sult of extraordinary program in the development. of antibacterial agents (drugs which destroy harm- ful organisms), it has been pos- sible for several years to obtain a cure in almost all cases of the most frequently occurring varieties of meningitis. Clearly the death rate has been greatly reduced: few children die now of meningitis. usually leaving brain uninjured. ,When damage or injury does occur. It is because of late diagnosis, not recognizing the disease soon enough.
"Rapid recognition of the organ- Lsms causing meningitis is essential (or best results, especially in those patients who are virlims of severe lnfections and therefore have the greatest need for early treatment. It is powible to discover the or- ganism causing the infection and estimate the severity of infection within 30 minutes after the spinal fluid reaches the laboratory." When organism is not recognized early. the infectious agent can

Acid Sillno
If an acid, such as lemon Juice or vinegar. has changed the color of a. fabric. the original color can often be restored by sponging with ammonia and water and then with chloroform.
Angel Coke
To preserve its delicacy of tex- ture, divide angel cake by pulling it apart with two forks. instead of using a knife. Sponge cake may be similarly divided.
Black Leather
To renovate black leather artic- les. such as belts, bags, portfolios. etc.. beat the yolks of two eggs and the white of one with one table- spoon alcohol and sugar. Stir in enough powdered ivory black (obtainable at paint store) to make a thick paste. Rub well into surface of article to be renovated.
usually be grown and identified within 12 to 18 hours. While most hospitals are not equipped to make such a. rapid diagnosis, if the 100- per-cent-recovery rate is to be ap- proached this service must be made available in the future by all hos- pitals.
As soon as the causative organ- ism is discovered, it must be re- moved in the shortest possible time. Dr. Alexander gives a list of some of the multiple drugs effect- ive agninst organisms that are common causes of meningitis - rabbit serum. aureomycin, strepto- mycin. penicillin, sulfonamlde. polymyxin and others.
when I remember our almost complete lack of success in treat- ing meningitis in 1918-1919. and see how the death rate is now almost nothing, I realize how grateful we should all be to our patient phy- sicians and research workers.

For Tomorrow
DO not magnify trifles this day. Just because you encounter minor obstacles or your plans meet with delay, there is no cause to fret. Instead, think matters over calmly and set about, as expeditiously as possible, to right them. The pres- ent tendency to dramatize un- important events also applies where personal relationships are concerned, so avoid even the small- est arguments lest they develop into full-scale clashes.
The evening hours are excellent for helping others. Visiting shut- ins. showing concern for the prob- lems of elders and giving aid to community enterprises are includ- ed among the activities which will not only benefit others but give you much needed peace of mind.
For the Birthday If tomorrow is your birthday
the months ahead should bring a most satisfactory conclusion to
those projects upon which you .
have expended your efforts since the early part of the year. Re- ward from superiors may come in the form of either a promotion or a bonus. but whatever manner of preferment is shown, it will give you a great sense of achievement.
Your horoscope also forecasts ll. vast improvement in your finan- clal status, not only as a result of some unexpected monetary gain. but through excellent opportuni- ties to lower expenses and save more money than you have been able to for some time. These good influences carry well into 1964 so make the most of them in the in- terests of future security. Social and domestic affairs are under stimulating aspects.
A child born on this day will be loyal, sincere and endowed with tremendous will power.
In time for pumpkin pies! And whutloyi mm W. I. has provided a spicy recipe which will help you to prepare o tasty dessert from those orange pump' ma.

we have she introduces the subject
of marriage and frankly. the topic bores me. For one thing, I don't. think
she's the girl I want for a wife. She
lacks the intellectual requirements I
have in mind. and she's not much. of a oonversationalist. When we dis-
cuss something, it usually winm up
as an argument. My friends thinks

Erode. when Bill Bi-ode was 9. small boy he sold newspapers at the spot where to- day Grand Oentral Terminal stands, surrounded with its ornate modern hotels. ,A nowsboy had to fight to keep his corner and be able to lick any tough guy who wanted to take over.
By the time Bill was 10 years old he had had a lot of hard knocks and was well on his way to becoming a cynic. First his mother died, then his father-.lea.viflg seven orphans. Relatives took Bill, the orphanage took the rest and Bill had to earn his keep, sunshine or blizzard regardless. one late spring afternoon Bill sold several newspapers to folks on o halted trolley car. Just as the trolley car pulled away. a fat red-faced man. standing on the rear platform said, "Two papersrson." Bill toned the papers safely to his customer. But the fat man began to guffaw as he held a nickel teasingly in his fingers, and kept shouting "Jump on board sonny. and you'll get your money". Bill. with his heavy load of papers tried to hop on, but missed and fell sprawling to the cobblestones. As he scrambled to his feet he suddenly heard A. wo- man's voice. Beside him was o carriage and shiny black horses. The ooachman had o. gleaming top hat and braided uniform. Seated in the ca.rrla.ge was o. beautiful lady, roses in her arms. tears in her eyes, and unladyllke language in her mouth. "That bla.nk.ety- blank good-for-nothing skunk! I saw what he did.
