Penicillin Treats Empyema

By Herman N. Bundesen, M. 0. INFECTION tn the chest cavity remitting in the formation of purr has. in the past, nearly always meant a difficult and perhaps hazardous operation. This condition, known as empyema, may be produced by any one of a number of germs pneu-in<M-ra-<us. ntn ptococcus or staphyloccccus. Usually large quantities of p irulent fluid collect around the site of the Infection. This infected material inu>t be drained off and. heretofore, this has usually been done by opening the chest wall. New Treatment Today it is often possible to treat this condition without opera tion and. like so many other pres-ent-day advances In medicine, this new treatment has been made possible through th« new wonder drug, peuii iilin. According lu Or. Maiw< 11 Finland of the Havard Medical School, treatment wiu, penicillin is fully successful If the empyema is caused by the germs mentioi>«-<* above. A hypeGsmric needle aud syringe are used to remove pus and fluid * from the chest cavity by suction. Penicillin solution is then injected directly into the cavity. Os 250 patients receiving this Uentin* nt iwo-iuirus recovered. Changes tn Fuid The penicillin is given every 12 . to 24 hours during the first aad 1

out chain letters from Muncie miming candidates whom they advise should be voted against because of religious affiliations. The FBI and the postal authorities are investigating. It seems to be an effort to further confuse the voters. —Q— John Blakey and John Augsburger are splendid citizens, ex-|H*rii-iiced In public affairs, farmers wlio own their own farms, interested In conducting the affairs of the county In the beat manner and at the least cost to the tux I payers. They ure candidatess for county commissioner and worthy of your support. o o Then- is a swing towards th‘‘ Democratic party tin l past few days as more ami more voters apparently realize what will hap-|H-n if a conservative isolationist majority controls congress. It won’t be too good for any one. Every body has been so busy com plaining about the shortages that they lost track of the real issues which was Just the reason the campaign to confuse was inaugurated Now it's time to get your feet on the ground and to consider how next Tuesday’s election will as feet you and yours. 0 o Imst year in the United States I 7.300 persons died in collisions beI tween automobiles, and 550.00" I suffered injuries. These figures ' compare with 5,700 killed and 450.000 Injured in the same way in the previous year. That the larger percentage by far of these collisions in Imth years occurred in rural areas is proof that in I the majority of cases speed was ' to blame. It Is a tragic factor in ; the safety effort and points to Hie continued need of curlllng excessive speed. 0 o \ \ From War To Peace America's newest city lias Just , voted. Oak Itidge, Tenn., was born four years ago as a *3,000,000.,000 gamble for victory, mysterious, set ret, not a part of Tennessee, hut a Federal oasis. It now emerges as a permanent city with state and civil rights. It is going to be a permanent city of aliout 43,000 inhabitants, ami It Is girding for its future. There are no unemployed. Its working forces of 30,000, whittled down from war’s peak of 90,000, labor in the three great plants, live in 3,000 single family unit homes or smaller apartments, some containing only one room and bath. Rents run from *35 to *75. The jieoplc like their city, their homes, their work. Atom City, as Oak Ridge Is sometimes called, Is going on. Its new job is to be studying and experimenting with peacetime uses for the Huston magic.

second day of treatment and then at longer intervals, deiwnding on the changes which occur In the fluid, in other words, If the fluid becomes less purulent, the treatments are given at longer inter val-, If the lung I* also affected, jH-niclllin may be given by injections Into a vein or muscle. Salt solution may be injected into the chest cavity to aid in withdrawing the thick fluid which forms in empyema. Three injections of penicillin into the chest cavity, in most cases, were sufficient to cause a disappearance of the germs producing the difficulty. , Continued treatment brought about a cure within three to sis weeks. Action of Drug Most of the germs which cause . empyema are more susceptible to penicillin than they are to the mil- . fonamide drugs. The action of the penicillin is not Interfered with by the fluid in the chest cavity and it rarely, If ever, causes any reaction, it does not irritate the lining membrane • the chest cavity or pleura. Even in<.h «e cases where this treatment does not bring ab> ut a cure, it brings about improvement in the patient's general londltion so that, later on, operation may be more safely performed. Thun, empyema seems to be one more of the disorders which has responded to the wsuder-workiag drug, pent€llll6. _

CHAPTER THIRTY-THREE VAL SPOKE, over her shoulder, “The town’s getting itself a new hair-do . . . Father's busier than he's been in years,” she said. Barry said something about labor and materials, and Vai shrugged. She said, “Some of the Fairton men are home, discharged from the services. There’s enough to keep them busy. I persuaded Norman to put another man in the garden. After all, Morton's too used to having his own way and too darned lazy,” she added with energy, "for his way to be much good.” She went on. turning into the road that led to the house, "Norman thinks we can build a swimming pool ... If the cost isn't too out of this world. I was talking ' to Madge about it the other day. Os course, she didn't build theirs, it was already on the place, but I she had to have repairs done and I she knows a firm that special- ■ izes . . Barry cleared his throat with such vigor that he rest of the sentence l was lost to Abby She had an impulse to laugh aloud. "Swimming pool, tenma courts, badminton," she had said to Barry only a few days ago She had been a better prophet than she realized. Each time she had seen her father since his wedding she had looked for some alteration in him to match the alteration In his manner of living. Yet he seemed the same, gray and unrevealing; no □lder, no younger. His manner toward her had not changed, it was the same he had always employed —in public. He avoided being alone with her. Not that she wished to be alone with him ... yet there was, aa Barry had said the night of the wedding, plenty of unfinished business Wallace had neither

explained his falsification of the facts In her mother's death nor denied that he had falsified them He had simply walked out of the room Jhe night of the wedding and, metaphorically, never returned. His manner toward Val was noteworthy. He behaved toward his wife. Abby realized, as he had never behaved toward her ... as if Val were an indulged, beloved and devoted daughter. He was never, at least when they were on exhibition, disciplinary or ironic with her. He watched her quietly often smiling a little. He seemed proud of her. of the way be «nce ln «he had taken hold ” ThWard their guests he was a considerate host, if an unbending one. He made no attempt to join them in the various activities at which they were amateurs or experts; he did not drink more than was his abstemious custom He never pteyed card*; he watched while th? OtMa railed up the rugs ami danced. If there was too much radio, too loud laughter, too much anything, be vanished quietly sad without MtentalloA, and reappeared *»»•« it suited him. If, as Barry suggested when he and Abby were alone in the room that had once been hers, the new life was getting Wallace down, he did not show it , - - Toward Barry he was amiable, and showed not Uh. slightest trace of ,hte old hostility. But Barry said, a* he and Abby were dressing for dinner, “You know, don't you. that your old man hates my guts? what bothers ma te why be no longer troubles to show It" Abby was brushing her hair, rne blue October dusk crowawj I against the window- and a small - SIP*

He thought he would never tire of watching her. She said, ”1 don't understand my father." Her glance, as she turned, went to her desk. It was one she had liked very much, and once it had i been untidy, cluttered with letters, ’ with calendars and scratch pads It was neat now, green blottercd ; with Vai's stationery in silver racks, there were assorted pens ' and pencils, a silver inkwell and — ' final gesture of the perfect heatear, books of stamps, three, six and

It was not the mo*t 'fortunate of simlliea and It ir .tatcd her. unduly. She pu* down the brush and hogan to »,rald her hair She would wcay It that way tonight, wrapped around and around her head. She would wear the thin wool dress Barry particularly liked, very sheer wool, and almoat the color ot her eyea. He asked, “Have I ever told you how pretty you are? Only that isn’t the adequate w'ord." She said. “You Jual said I was like a horse.” "Nothing ia prettier than a hors?," he aar.ured her, and came over to bend down, put his cheek against her hair. He said, "Don i be afraid of Val.“ “I’m hot. Why should I be?" “Lord knows Abby. you and l—are together. We belong. We knew that the day we met ... a moment, an eternity ago. when *as it ... last May? What your father does, or what Vai does, that needn't concern us. On the surface it simply looks as If she were spending all the money she can lay her hands on, and as fast as possible. Personally I don’t think that's too bright, but It's quite possible that he has told her that after his death she'll have her dower right and no more. On the other hand. I believe there’s something underneath the more or less to be expected gestures. ... I don’t know whether it’s of Vai’s motivation or whether it's your father's; or whether, whatever It ia. they dreamed it up together ... but it’s there. And I’m Just curious enough to want to know what it is and why." Abby pinned the braids In place with steady Angers. She asked. "Where did you and Vai disappear to, just before ve came upstairs?” He looked at her blankly. “Qh, that.... Your father wanted ‘ah expert opinion on the brandy somebody sold him la* l week.
