Health and "Beauty . . . Dr. Sophia Brunion It terrifies the family to have a child go into convulsions espec ially when they come without warn ing or at least no symptoms that are noticed by the attendants. The child is apparently well when his eyes suddenly roll up. His body becomes rigid and his breathing may cease for a few moments. He may get black in the face and go into one convulsion after another. Suppose the doctor delays his coming? The young parents are frantic. What must be done? Don't scream and yell until the neighbors crowd in and stand around, keep ing the air from the child. Other a larming symptoms may appear. The muscles of his jaw may work and the extremeties begin working. The nervous systems of children are a very delicate and easily upset. A child will have convulsions when an adult would react to the desturb ance by chills or fever. There are many causes for convul sions in children—indigestion, con-! stipation, and teething. Most infec tious diseases are at times ushered I in by convulsions instead of chills, j Children with rickets are predispos-1 ed to convulsions. All of the common infectious j diseases of childhood, such as meas- , les, scarlet fever and pneumonia may be ushered in this way. There are so many causes for convulsions that we cannot enumerate them in this short article. In treating convulsions, the first step is to draw the blood from the head. Fill a tub with hot -water if you can get it. Don't get excited and plunge the child in water that is too hot. Many children have been injured in this way. Be sure to ap ply cold cloths to the head in order to reduce t"he temperature of the brain. If you do not have the means for giving the body a bath, put the feet in hot mustard water while keeping the head cool. ' When the doctor comes he may find it necessary to use choloform or other medical procedure. You could use luke warm water with a little soda in it and wash out the bowels by administering an enema. I recall receiving a frantic call from a young mother to come at j once to her child who was almost i eight months old. He went from one hard convulsion into another. We worked frantically for several hours while the child passed a crooked rusty pin which was probably stick ing his intestines. The sedatives which had been administered then took effect and. he fell into a calm sleep. He made an uneventful re covery. Remember that convulsions are a warning that something is wrong. Have your doctor find out the cause. Look carefully after your child's health. When Your Back Hurts - And Your Strength and Energy Is Below Par It may be caused by disorder of kid ney function that permits poisonous waste to accumulate. For truly many people feel tired, weak and miserable when the kidneys fail to remove excess acids and other waste matter from the blood. You may suffer nagging backache, rheumatic pains, headaches, dizziness, getting up nights, leg pains, swelling. Sometimes frequent and scanty urina tion with smarting and burning is an other sign that something is wrong with the kidneys or bladder. There should be no doubt that prompt treatment is wiser than neglect. Use Doan's Pills. It is better to rely on a medicine that has won countrywide ap proval than on something less favorably known. Doan's have been tried and test ed many years. Are at all drug stores. Get Doan's today.
