NEW DRUG COMBINATION AGAEST ALLERGY with the hay fever season close at hand, some of the nndings of our research workers should be of help to these sufferers and to many other individuals who suffer with what is called allergy. . Allergy is being oversensitlve to various sub- stances s pollen of flowers. trees and plants, house dusts. street dusts and various foods. The under- lying cause is believed.-to be his- tamine in the blood, and almost every week our drug manufactur- ers are putting "iiiiti-histamine" drugs on the market to reduce the amount of histamine present in the patient or gradually desensltize the individual by means. of antihista- mine shots under the skin or into the muscles. Unfortunately. it so happens that the usual shots given for hay fever and these other allergic conditions -hives, rashes. head colds-develop reactions that cause the patient and physician to reduce the dose of the antihistamine so that poor or no results are obtained. Accord- ingly. research workers in allergy developed a new method of giving the immunization shots on which perhaps 10,000.00!) Americans (and Canadians) depend for relief from hay fever or ragweed and the as- thma of dusts and pollens. The new method was described by Dr. Nathan E. Silbert, Chelsea, Mass- achusetts. to 500 specialists in ai- lergy attending the 8th Annual Congress of the American College of Allergists meeting in New York City. Dr. Silbert began his work ln i949 on patients sensitive to grass- es. plantain and ragweed. At the end of the ragweed season in Oc- tobor. he observed that fewer side reactions to pollen antigens had occurred in patients treated by his combination of lnjectable Chlor- Trimeton Maleate with pollen, dust or mold extracts under the skin. This permits the following: 1. Larger doses of the antihista- mine can be used with very little side reactions or none at all. with fewer injections, pat- ients still receive a sufficient amount of antigen to stimulate goth," ear.

I DOROTHY .-:.;.;:.:-2. , Unwanted lnhuman Mother Would Have "Ugly Duckling" Adopted DEAR DOROTHY DIX: Our marriage was very happy and un- troubled until the birth of my third child. From the beginning he was a problem. He caught practically all ailments. had constant colds and was entirely different from his healthy, ro- bust sisters. David is a homely child. backward and shy. I am ashamed to bring him into the room when my friends call. My husband and I are seriously thinking of putting him into a home for adoption. Do you think I am right? KAY ANSWER: You make me absolutely ashamed of my sex. What kind of is mother are you to reject a child simply because he isn't up to your standard of perfection? You would like a Utopian existence in which all children are handsome, healthy, brilliant and no trouble whatsoever. Other mothers occasionally might have the same ideas. they don't put all the little plain Janes into orphan- Muriel Nlssen but thank heaven agesl NOTHING BASICALLY Wll0NGl Apparently there is nothing fundamentally wrong with David either physically or mentally. He just isn't beautiful or bright! Don't you realize that by having two paragon: of health and beauty you have come up with a better than average percentage? What ap- parently irks you is the fact that David's many ailments have neces- sitated more care than you like to render, and he is a source of an- noyance because of his lack of exhihitlonary qualities. Probably your friends find him more appealing in his shyness than his sisters in their giamor. Putting I. child out for adoption simply because he falls to meet your high standards of childhood is a poor excuse, and one for which you will find scant sympathy. The boy is yours. and it is your re- sponsibility to give him physical care, love and understanding to help him develop into a fine. healthy boy. A physical or mental handicap would call for special resources. but David's case apparenlly'ls not of so serious a nature. Put the boy under the care of a thoroughly competent doctor- s pediatrician, if necessary-and follow his advice and instructions implicitly. Look upon the child as the one of your flock requiring the most, rather than the least, attention. He will most assuredly re- ward you amply for the trouble he is giving you now-if you look upon his care as s. labor of love rather than an lrksome burden to be shoved off to the nearest adoption agency. DEAR MISS DIX: I am almost 15, and very fond of a certain boy at school. My parents are very strict, and they have a trivial ob- jection to this boy. When mother found out that I have his slgnet ring she told me to return it at once. I don't want to" because he'll think I don't like him. and I do. B. E. ANSWER: Your mother is right in wanting you to return the ring, whether or not she is Justified in her objections to the young man. You are too young to accept tokens of this type and. if you explain the situation nicely. the boy cannot feel that you don't like him. x My girl friend and I live In a small town (Continued on Page 8) .

"perpetual lei- sure?-" we watched the sun of today filing last golden banners along the sky in token of setting." Presently thue turned to pink and rose in the west and there- floated away from the face of old Sol, fea- cinatlng cloudlets of coral, edged in clearest amber. And then as we waited the gates of the long day were closed and only the shades of the gentle af- terglow remained of all the glow and color of before. That too was entrancing. There were billowing clouds of violet. of mauve and pur- pie above the cozy farmsteads on the slope now settled down topt-heir dreaming, before these faded and were lost in the wide silver sea of sky. And first waves of twilight veiled the far hills. And a wind that was cool and quiet moved in along the pictured farmlands, erasing all remem- brance of the heat and toll of day. It spoke to us of long vacation days onifnrms with loved ones - by a blue strait or gulf or river-side; or in some unspoiled exquisite inland spot serenely apart from every con- fusion and noise. peaceful as Eden and scented by fragrance of ever- green and clover.

But.” she said. "you can see how they draw me back. to 'Hoiric' each summer!" for fishing." Jamie remarked at breakfast. "I guess it's because there's so much else to do . . . tractors to drive, lawns to cut, chicks in feed and the lamb to feed." "But you dont need' to car- ry milk to the lamb now that he's a big fellow." his father said. "I know" Jamie agreed, "but I want to show mother, when she cornea home what R. pet he is . . . how he bleaia and comes running to us when we call and the cute way he takes his bottle."
