The South Gallery was filled with guests of Cabinet. ministers. Senators and Commons members, and the aides to the diplomats. in the North Gallery were a number! of invited guesis, and 46 seats were open to the general public, firsl come. first served.

TREATMENT FOR. BAD BREATH CAUSED BY DRY CATARRH

It is only loo true that bad breath does interfere with busi- ness and pleasure, A few years ago a controversy between two physic- ians was published in the Journal. of the American Medical Associa-' tion as to whether bad breath was caused by particles of food left on the teeth or whether it was caused by something eaten which. after being absorbed into the blood and the blood carried to the lungs. was breathed out through moulh and nose.

As matter of fact, food left on the teeth can cause bad breath and food such as onion or garlic can be detected on the breath ions: after the teeth have been brushed several times. .

What is considered the meanest and most embarrassing odor on the breath is that caused by dry catarrh (ozena). due to crusts which form in the nose. I have written about the success of X-ray treatment of ozena and also, some months ago, about the successful use of estrogen (a sex gland ex- tracts).

In The Journal of Ear and Throat. Stockholm, Dr. L. W. lili- dernlsse points out the relationship between the nose and the sex or generative organs. Nose disturb- ances are aggravated or improved at specific periods in the sex cycle. At the menopause .ozena disap- pears entirely. He reports results of eslrogenic treatment. of ozone.

After the nose was washed with a solution of table salt (a level teaspoon to a alass of warm water); three or four drops of an estrogenic preparation. dissolved in peanut oil. wore put up the nose twice a day. some patients were given the estrogenlc substance by injection into a muscle twice a week. Others were given tablets of an estrogenlc substance. ln a total of 24 patients with ozenn treated with estrogenlc substance, great knprovemen: was observed in seven, some improvement in ii. and no improvement in 6.

The estrogenic substance helps to dissolve the crusts in the nose and with crusts softened and re- moved, the odor disappears. Thus the estrogenic substance has the same effect in removing crusts as does X-ray treatment now used in various parts of the country. It was found that peanut oil alone had little or no eneet upon these crusts.

The taking of ostrogenic sub- stance as drops up the nose or tablet: by mouth is a simple method of treatment, but it should be prescrbed by or be under super-

ant day. with promise of the pur- suit of happiness the main issue. while such benevolent auspices also maintain in any dealings with influential sources and fa- vora are eneouraged,.it might also be wise to see the danger of aus- plclous or tricky involvements.
