Y„ is that of the young police her# who ticked him down and killed him in a pistol duel to the death. De tective Harry Moore, although only on the police force aince 1924, haa already been ihot on three occasions while rounding up bad men. But each time he aucceeded in capturing the man who ahot him. When he atopped the firat gang bullet, back in 1926, he waa carried into the French Hoapital, New York, more dead than alive. But Cupid pulled him back from the brink of the grave. He fell in love with hia nuree, Helen Mor gan, with the reault that she ia now Mrs. Moore. The young sleuth waa aaaigned the task of bringing in McCarthy after the gangster had alaia Detective Guido Peasagtto, laat October. McCarthy was also under sus picion for the Harlem baby massacre last Summer. Moore stuck tena ciously to the trail of the gang leader, who boasted be waa “too smart te be taken by a dumb cop,” for ten months until he cornered him at Albany. In the ensuing gun battle Moore was wounded three times, but he suc ceeded in planting a bullet in McCarthy's heart. Mrs. Jean McCarthy, the badman'a wife, was wounded in the fight and she and several of the trapped gan>{ surrendered and were taken in custody. Even Mild Cases of Scarlet Fever Are Very Contagious Great Increan* of Cases in Recent Months Makes It Highly Important That Every Patient Be Quarantined and Given Proper Treatment. By ROYAL S. COPELA.ND, M. D. United States Senator from New York Former Commissioner of Health, Xew York City, THERE has been an alarming increase in the number of cases of scarlet fever re ported from all over the country within the past few months. For tunateiy, most of the c a s e * . weTe of a mild I form. Scarlet fever I is a highly con ' taRious disease. ! 1 It is oft“n ne i glected and in this wav is quickly spread from on* child to another. Quarantine i s I necessary f o r g all cases. Chil- • dren who re Dr. Copeland cover rrom scariet lever should not be permitted to return to ; school without presentation of a physician’s certificate. The disease comes on suddenly and the first symptoms' notrd are vomiting, sore throat, headache and fever. The rash of scarlet fever ap pears within twenty-four hours and is first seen on the neck and upper part of the chest. It is bright red in color and gradually spreads' over the entire body The rash lasts from three to ten days and then fades A.fter this the skin peels In sraJes or large piece*, producing what Is called desquamation. Mild cases of scarlet fever -squire i little treatment beside# rest (n bed and isolation: hut please hear In mind that mild cases are quitfe as contagious as severs cases. Though the treatment of scarlet fever in tne mild form is simple, the disease should never be neglected or its Im portance underestimated. Often the heart and kidneys become involved, even in mild forms of scarlet fever, simply because the disease is not treated and the diet and amount mi exercise are not limited. Scarlet fever is dangerous beeanas of the frequent complication* 'ba«. occur in this disease. The Ssr*. kidneys, ears and glands may be come involved, in the severe fwjra of this disease. When the fi«ww !» high. special medications and careful nurstn* are of the utmost import ance _ ! Use of the Dick Test,I Large quantities of water should he taken. It may be riven in the form of lemonade or oranreade. Liquid foods, such as vmfTk. are best tolerated in the beginning of the disease. later, cereals and broths may be added to the diet. Daily elimination is important and where necessary, enemas should be riven. When the fever has subaided and desquamation has taken place., sponge baths containing bicarbonate of soda are beneficial and relieve the itching, The quarantine should not be lifted until desquamation is com pleted and there are no abnormal discharr** from the month, nose or ears. Considerable research work is being done to find an injection which will rife immunization, or protec tion, against scarlet fever. Similar to the "Schick test" in diphtheria, the "Dick test" determines whether or not an individual is eusceptible to scarlet fever. If your child has not received this test, consult with your physician or the local board af health. | Answers to Health Queries j Q—How may I remove callouse* from the solos of my foot? ; A.— For full particulars restate your question and send a stamped , self-addreseed envelope.
