Your Baby and Mine ‘Whenever we have an epidemic of bad colds we notice the number of children who suffer earache as an accompani- ment to the cold or afterward. The two ‘conditions do go together, for the chan- nel running from the nose to the ear is so situated that an infection from one easily travels into the other. This sets up & “middle-ear” infection, which runs its own course of pain and fever, very often with a ruptured eardrum tha‘:’ oozes pus for & long time after- wal Mothers are sometimes at a loss to understand why baby seems to have lost his cold and still suffers from a h1¢h &emm and is obviously mu- ears are examined, the Vlll.lln will usually be uncovered. ‘We offer one warning to mothers of children with colds. To allow them to sniff medicines or thick salves up their noses is to court danger. The sniffing distributes the salve plus the infection all through the chambers of the head. 'X‘hl:;nmmr is the result of bitter ex- per! If medicines are advised for dropping into the nose, the “dropping” means just that.

Wash! the ear with a large bulb syringle filled with boric acid water consists, first, in making a solution of one teaspoonful of boric acid crystals and one pint of bolling water. Keep in covered jar and heat when needed. Fill the bulb syringe with the warm solu- tion and wash out the ear, holding a cup under it to catch the water as it Tuns out. Tip the ear to clear it of water, wipe it dry carefully and insert & plug of cotton. Irrigations are done with a douche bag. Use one quart of hot water of about 100 degrees or more by thermometer. In this put one table- spoonful of salt and one of soda. Ele- vate the bag by hanging it above the child’s head. Let the child sit beside the bathtub, tilting the head so that the water will run in and out of the ear. The rubber tube without a point on it can be used for this purpose. Put a Turkish towel under the ear to catch any drippings. The water should be !hll is soothing. This may be done as often as once every three hours if the ear is badly inflammed, and may pre- vent having to puncture it or prevent ‘even more serjous conditions. long as there is any fever con- nected with an ear condman the ladyfinger Pudding.
