It seems odd to make bullet-proof vests and leave balloon paqks to talc, what they deserve. People who live in autos should not throw glass. THERE'S A PERIL IN EVERY PINPRICK Dv Dr. Royal S. Copeland. Here is a cable dispatch from. Ber lin: , “Sigmund Brietbart, billed in c r cus and vaudeville programs for years as “the worlds strongest man. j died today at 42. “Brietbart whose exhibition eon-! sisted of pulling against two horses bending iron bars and tearing horse shoes apart, succumbed to blood y i soning which developed from a small nail scratch.” I just read this in a paper. It shocked me, because 1 have seen this young giant at work. What he could do with h’s powerful muscles was marvelous. Now lie is dead at 42. He was killed by a pinprick prac tically. Everybony knows th»tv vicn a trouble as blood;)).- o’' Hardly person lives but has lost an acquain tance from this cause. If blood poisoning is such a terri ble discas0 whv do von hot take greater pains to scape :t? r or years 1 na.'o observed wit li horror the practice some young peo ple, girls especially, induig' :n on every occasion. They do not hesitate to dig fingermtls or to jan a pin in to the flesh of those ^v:Lh nom titcy are playing or scuffling. To scratch, bit or otherwise deliberately brca.t the tissues >.f a human iti i?, • >cept in actual self defense is a crime a against humanity. It may seem “funny” or “playful,” but ;t may prove fatal. That isn’t so funny. Not everybody can take diphthe ria. Not every exposed child will catch scarlet fever. Likewise, not ev ery damaged person will have biood poisoning. Fortunately for us, Nature has pro vided what we call “the power of re sistance.” Except on occasions v. e aie pretty well immune to the harm fill effects of germs. If we have io>v cred our power of resistance by wrong living, we may become sus ceptible. It behooves us, so far as we may to avoid scratches tears and other wounds. AVe jtievcr can be perfectly Confident that our resistance is sutfi cient to give protection. Even thougn Brietbart was the world’s strongest man, he fell on death from _ mere scratch. In every household and everywheie that people gather, there should >e an iodine preparation. In every drug store these days there may be purchased a little vial, the cork car rying a convenient, rod. all ready for >n immediate application of the Io dine . w Apply the iodine. Then wash the injured parts thoroughly with clean soap and clean water. Apply another drop of iodine and cover the injured part with cotton or bandage. r IERSONALP Folks y»ii know 0,1 the gcU Mr. Page Lucas, has returned to Sanford after spending the holidays with his parents, Mr. and Mrs VV.
