A YOUNG DOCTOR in one of our western cities was bothered with recurrent crops of fever blis ters. A few years ago he had charge of a ill *** ! Dr. Clendening and found that smallpox vaccine had* been used to prevent recur rence of fever blisters quite ex tensively in Europe. One or two features of his experience should be noted. The reason he vaccinated himself so often during the epidemic was jthat none of his vaccinations re sulted in a “take” because he had |been successfully vaccinated when jhe was a baby. It is not necessary ito have a take in order to make the treatment successful. Fever blisters om the lips and chin are known as “herpes sim plex”. There is another form of herpes, which is known as “herpes Izoster”, which is commonly called [“shingles”. They are both char acterized by extremely painful blis ters forming on the skin. The pain is out of all proportion to the size <o£ the sores, probably because they involve a nerve filament. There ::;e some curious relation ships between these two forms of herpes, and the two vesicular erup- heating liquids 11 —Failing to attend 13—Diminutive of Albert 15 —Not tested, as by expe rience 18 — Pronoun. 19— The head (slang) 21 —To work steadily 23—Expelled 25 —A river of China Answer to previous puzzle ■ R L. i Q D Q O S l_ IE || ~A~ eTjjjjj L | O 1 G-jffl p~Te|a t S t- Ajv E KjE~j'- [vj Etf|~A~!S S j E ;T j East criticized West for not leading the spade 10, contending that the lead of the 8 was difficult for him to read. West’s retort was that if the 8 was a fourth best lead. South held only one higher than it and East should not have played the Q. If the 8 had been the top of a worthless short suit, South would then have held the A-K-10-9, in which case he would undoubtedly have bid that suit rather than no trump on the first round of bidding. If East allows the spade 8 to ride, the contract is set, as the opponents get three spades and two hearts instead of the two spades to which they were limited by the play of the Q. * * * Tomorrow’s Problem 4 10 9 8 6 4 ¥ A K v 48642 *75 4 None r— — 4 A 7 5 3 2 ¥Q 8 3 vV * . ¥lO9 6 5 4QJIO 9£ Ul 4 7 5 c i 4 None * A K Q J —<4642 4KQJ , ¥J 7 2 4A K 3 * 10 9 8 3 (Dealer: North. East-West vul nerable.) What is the correct bidding on this deal? tive diseases, chickenpox and small pox. Shingles, or herpes zoster, oc curs almost entirely in adults, and it has been noticed that when an adult in a household has an attack of shingles, it frequently happens that one or two children there are likely to come down with chicken pox. Conversely, in a household where children have chickenpox, an adult member is likely to come down with shingles. This happens too often for it to be merely a co incidence. Two Diseases Differ There is, however, a considerable difference between herpes simplex and herpes zqster. In the first place, fever blisters (herpes sim plex) are likely to recur over and over again with barely a week be tween attacks. Shingles, on the contrary, confers a lifelong immu nity r ith one attack. It never comes back. All of these conditions are clas sified as virus diseases. Fever blis ters are spread by carriers, and it I s estimated that between 50 and ' ,J per cent of all human beings are earners. This accounts for the iact that the condition is so com mon. In a series of .'ls cases which were treated by smallpox vaccina on, only five of them had recur rences, and these at such long pe noos of time as a year in between, in „o of the cases the condition eared up and no recurrence has occurred for over two years. These were individuals who were con stantly bothered with recurrent at apart fr ° m three to four weeks At any rate, the smallpox vari ation will not do arty harm, and i* ... We have a possible remedy ror this unimportant but very an noying condition, smallpox epi demic in his community which lasted about six months. He was vaccinated three times during his work, and when the epidemic was over he no ticed that had not had any recur rence of his fever blis ters.
