Broke in China HEALTH SERVICE Cause of Infantile Paralysis Still Puzzles Science BY DR. MORRIS FISHBEIN Editor Journal of the American Medical Association and of Hygeia, the Health Magazine "Acute anterior poliomyelitis" is the scientific name commonly called infantile paralysis, because it manifests itself by an inflammation which tends to localize especially in the terior part of the gray material of the spinal cord. The disease is usually preceded by three or four days of fever with dis.turbances of the stomach, after which comes paralysis. Instances are not recorded in which a suffered with this disease. In some cases the preliminary symptoms are so slight that the paralysis is the first symptom noted: in other cases the paralysis may.

be so slight that the condition is unrecog. nized, except for the fact that it appears at a time when other cases are frequent in the community. fortunately, the paralysis is extensive in many instances and relatively permanent. Since the exact cause of this dis. case is not yet known, It is not 'sible to protect one's certainly against it.

Indeed, it has not yet been established exactly what tho commuicable, period for the disease may be, The time that clapses be. tween exposure and development is from olle to fourteen days: presumably it is somewhere in this period. While tho condition occurs usually in warm weather, it is most frequent FARMERS TAKE ADVANTAGE OF BRIGHT MOON TO PLOW FOR CORN LAST NIGHT Aurora, May 17-(A) -Kendall county farmers took, advantage of the bright moon last night to plow corn fields.

EFFORTS OF SOME STATIONS TURN OUT BOOMERANGS INSTEAD OF WRITING FAVORABLE LETTERS HEARERS WRITE UNFAVORABLE Washington, May 17-(AP)-Broadcasting stations which have been urging listeners to write the federal. radio commission petitioning for a more favorable position may find their efforts turned into a sort of boomerang, the commission said day.

Commissioner Bellows explained that many of the letters protest that the stations appealing should be giv. en even less consideration in the matter of power and wave assignment than they now have. By June 1 the commission expects to have a complete reallocation of broadcast wave lengths. Very few broadcasters will be allowed to remain exactly where they now stand, Mr. Bellows said, but more Important stations will have wave positions quite similar to those they now oc- cupy.

NO INDIGESTION OR DIZZY SPELLS NOW Freeport Woman Rejoices Over Quick Recovery. Viuna Surprised Her Talks to Viuna Man at Emmert's Drug Store Another Freeport case in which Viuna, the wonder medicine, brought quick and complete relief from pain and sickness, was. revealed the other day, when the Viuna man at mert's Drug Store a report from Mrs. D. M.

Zerbe, 823 W. Cleveland St. In describing her happy lease from years of suffering, Mrs. Zerbe said: had been having indigestion awfully bad for a long, time. and it got Su severe that 1 could hardly eat.

Food never cligested right, but seemed sour and ferment. causing gas pains that gave n1e agony all day, and kept 1110 awake nt night. Lack of sleep lelped' make me weak, The Vinna Man rundown and nervous. Often I had terrible headaches that were almost unbearable. Dizzy spells also bothcred me, and at times I nearly fainted.

I was badly constipated, too, and took pills and medicines almost continually, but got no benefit at all. I was in such misery that I thought I should never get rid of my troubles. the day I read about Viuna in the Freeport paper was the day I took new courage. I read how derfully Viuna had helped a woman who suffered just like I did, so I sent to the drug store for a bottle. I had tried a great many other medicines, but never experienced anything like the quick and blessed relief Viuna gave me.

Almost at once I'felt an improvement, and before the different first bottle was gone I was a woman. Already Viuna has banished all the indigestion and gas pains, and I can enjoy a good meal once more. The awful headaches and diz. ziness have also disappeared. I am sleeping soundly and get up each morning greatly refreshed.

'The constipation has been conquered, and my bodily functions are now regular. Viuna surely proved to be "the Wonder Medicine" for me, and I shall praiso it tu every sick know." This convincing testlinony to the remarkable power of Viuna is only pore of inany such striking reports you will find on file at the Emmert Drug Store. If you are afflicted with Indigestion, kidney or liver disorders, rheumatism or similar troubles, drop in and let the Viuna man show you these statements and tell you all about the merits of this wonder medicine. A personal talk with him will not obligate you, and it may lead you to the prompt relief and good health you have sought so long. Viuna is sold in Freeport by Emmert Drug and in other towns can be obtained front any goud drug.

BRUSH THE GREAT MAGICIAN- -ENTERTAINER ASSISTED BY ADA MARY PORTER Jin the temperate zone. Northern Europe and the northern part of the United States have revealed most of the cases. Apparently the disease attacks rich and poor alike. It appears equally in.

good and bad tary situations. It is apparently diseaso of childhood, since 95 cent of those attacked are under ten. years of age. Unfortunately it has not been determined whether this disease spread by contact of well persons with those who are sick, by means of insects, or through foods. Because on of the difficulty in determining this factor, many experts believe that the disease is spread in a variety of manners.

In the control of infantile paraly. sis, the person who is sick should be isolated for at least three weeks front the day' when he first has fever. All children in the same household and all persons in tact with the sick should be tined so that they will not carry the disease to other persons. Dischatges from the nose, throat, and other parts of the body, should be thor. oughly disinfected, and all clothing or other materials in contact with the sick person should be boiled before repeated use.

Since. it is possible that the germ may be carried by dust, street and house dust should be kept down by sprinkling or oiling in the presence of an epidemic, At such times dren should be kept away from pub'lie gatherings.
