Any workers having a tendency to bronchitis, catarrh, asthm:, or tuberculosis will do well to avoid the dusty trades, as the dust only irritates these condi- tions further. The damage of the dust lies in the size of the specks. Those that are large are screened out by the hairs of the nose before they reach the lungs, or they may so irritate the throat that they are sneezed out. The super- fine dust more readily reaches the lungs. The first indications of danger from dust are chronic bron- chitis and emphysema, followed by the third sign, of “Black Spit” in which the patient expectorates pus colored with dust. Sometimes poisoning may occur from dust that carries a poison with it. Often the poison is not actually taken into the lungs but is removed by the upper respiratory tract and swallowed so that it is later absorbed by the intestines and enters the sys- tem that way. Lead poisoning may occur either from dust or the vapor of metalic lead. Those occupations of smelting, manufacturing paint, soldering and type-setting often give rise to it. Arsenic poisoning may also occur in this manner. The per- foration of the nasal septum of those who work in chromium dust is known. Carries of the teeth seems to occur from the sugar dust in sugar mills. “Ragpicker’s Disease” is the name of the disease which attacks those who handle old rags. “Shoddy Fever” is ‘known to attack inexperienced men | when they first grind rags, bringing on @ fever accompanied by shaking and catarrh. Yoo! Sorter's Disease” is an affection among those who sort over wool or hair, the infection being breathed in with the dust. The first symptoms are chill, then pain in the back and legs; fever, severe pain in iS, 1 fi ia NM apologized brusquely. “Where were you at 12 o'clock thi: evening, Miss Shepherd?

It 1s also a good plan whenever possible to change the grinding or pounding from dry to wet so that the water will keep down the dust. When dust does form it should be carried out by the buiiding of air currents applied to the dust source which will catch the dust before it can be scattered. In many cases, mixing can be done in enclosed mixers or grinders with the product held in by closed conveyers which prevent a blowing about of the dust. The safest advice to those who find | themselves affected with this kind of trouble is to change the occupation. In most cases this will bring about a recovery if the patient selects a dust free atmosphere to live in. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS (Exophthalmic Goitre) Question: Mrs. M. M. write: had an operation a year ago, hav an inward goitre taken out. Since then my throat is always What causes it? And my ey they ever go back in place?” Answer: The dryness of your throat may be caused by some injury !to the salivary glands which occurred during your operation. If the oper- ation was successful your eyes should gradually recede somewhere to the: normal place, but most cases never become entirely normal. (Agar-Agar) Question: Mrs. K. asks: “Will you Please tell me where I can get agar- agar, and how to use it to cure con- stipation?” Answer: Agar-agar can be secured in any drug store. It is put up in packages in granulated form. A good way to use it is to take three or four tablespoonfuls a day, cither at meals or between meals, it does not seem to matter, The agar-agar is not di- gested and contains very little food material. It therefore furnishes bulk for the intestines and this assists in relieving constipation which is often caused by using food which is too highly concentrated. (Proper Ventilation) Question: P, W. asks: “What is the proper way to ventilate a room? It seems to me that without fresh air all the time a special diet would be of no use to the body.” Answer: The special ventilation of every room in the house is of the utmost importance, and to get the best results this problem must be carefully studied. As a rule, a good plan is to provide for openings near the ceiling where the warm, devital- ized air can pass out. Low openings should also be provided for the in- take of fresh air. All gass stoves should be provided with the proper vents and where a fire is burning in the room, more outside air must be admitted to keep up the supply of oxygen.
