A Reaction Due to Allergy

By Herman N. Bundesen. M. 0 MENIERE'S disease is one of the strangest of the many disorder* now thought also to be due to allergic reaction*. People afflicted in this way are apparently well unless they eat some food or come in contact with something to which they are allergic and then a most unpleasant episode ensues. The first reaction ia likely to be eatreme dizziness and impairment of the hearing In one ear, the sounds of the outside world being replaced by a persistent and annoying ringing in the affected ear. bur tag an attack, the patient grows pah- and often suffers from cold sweats, sickness at the stomach, and vomiting The exact reason why an allergy should take thia form in some people la yet to be found, but the un pleasant symptoms can tie ac< ounted for by the fact that the reaction brought about by the allergy in volv** the blood vessel* supplying the ear. which la not only the organ of bearing but also houses the body's balancing mechanism A number of different form* of treatment have bents employed One of the most recent consist* of the use of histamine diphosphate When persons are allergic, hista mine Is formed ia excessive amount* in the body. Hence the object of thia treatment la to make the patient ie** sensitive to histamine In employing the treatmeat, the histamine dlphoephate la given •lowly at the rate of M to M drops a minute by injection into a veil Tta hlsuainc diptoospbat k dtasnl.bd te about a half pwt nf »alt

ficient grain will encourage feeding and put an end to marketing of lightweight animals More grainfinished cattle will gc to market, increasing both the supply and quality of beef. There is definite promise' of lower food prices in this year’s bumper crops. It is inconceivable that shipments of food to Europe will be continued at the level of the last three years As a result supplies for the domestic market will be more than adequate. Farmers, though, need not fear disastrous deflation because the government guarantees a wheat of 32 a bushel, and other

prices in proportion. r o— o t Outcome of the third party convention in Philadelphia this week will he watched with great inter- ? est by those who are concerned ’ over the spread of communism in America. With Wallace’s nomination for president an assured fact, the platform upon which he will go before the voters in November will be widely scrutinized. Wallace is a left winger to the fullest degree. While non-communiat ’’liberals ’ the most numerous among his supporters, the actual communists will seek to dominate the convention and frame the platform. ——o —© The beautiful Shades Park has been dedicated and added to the state’s paik system. The scenic ' 1.300 acre tract south of Crawtordsvilie was purchased by -popular subscriptions in a campaign spearheaded by the Indiana Ameri can Legion. A bronze plaque at the park entrance reads: “The shades . . . American Legion Me- | mortal Park ... in memory of Indiana Veterans of all wars, who made the supreme sacrifice." Dotted with acres of virgin timber, the park should lie developed into one of the most famous recreation spots in the country and equally as

important a* tho red wood forests of California. -_o o The Dixiecrats followed the Republican example and nominated two governors to head their southern rebel ticket. The candidates for president and vice-president are. Gov J Strom Thurmond of South Carolina and Gov. Fielding Wright of Mississippi. Before the ticket can b<- placed on the ballots, state conventions will have to be held in the rebellious states and presidential electors selected This may cause more trouble and in the end. the Truman and Barkley ticket may win. Six southern states have so far indicated their Intention of supporting the Dixiecrats, but as yet the leaders haven't received a mandate from the people hack home.

That's the one thing the family Is united on. I don't deserve him . and I don't deserve Judy because I'm a no-good, ambitious, career woman. What about you?" Anne said, "Well. I had a job—" "Don't tell me you've given It up!" Helen shook her bead and her earrings swung. "Great mistake. The only way to survive here is to establish your Independence. Better get yourself another, but quick. You could ride in with me every day. Think it over.** And she stood up. "Excuse pliz? 1 must go scrub New York off my face." "You might start with that smear on your mouth," Gram saidHelen paused by the door. "Gram, you re wonderful. You stick to your guns am. never miss a chance to fire and I admire that Really, there's nobody more wonderful than you in this house—unless maybe it's the Madame." And with a wicked chuckle she vanished, leaving Gram with a jerking shoulder and Ore tn her eye. For the briefest moment John’s glance met Annes across the table. She could not be sure what was tn that took, what he was trying to say to her by it, but it touched her like an electric flash It held, she felt, some defiance, some challenge, as if he had said to her. This is the family you're marrying into. This combative, argumentative. strong-minded family. Can you take it?" Suddenly warmth flooded her. She had no idea why It seemed unreasonable to like this atmosphere. It was filled with eroaa tides of purposes and desires There waa anger here, and jealousy. perhaps even hats.

It was clear 1 in Julia, so perfectly adjusted to 1 all the personalities under her root. i Clear in John, too, to some extent « Anyway, now in this household, i she felt herself coming alive in a r way she could not remember ever experiencing before. q "If I stay here," she thought, t "I can't be like Julia, detached and r coot I'll get mixed up. I'll take 1 sides." And she nodded ever so ( slightly back at John. 1 Julia was saying. "Let’s have j coffee in the living room tonight, < shall we ?’’ And she rose and blew i out the candles and led the way 1 across the halL < They all followed except Henry | who said, "I'll have mine right here." Glancing back, Anne saw I him sitting there at the disordered table in the bright glare of the < electric chandelier. And there was I something pathetic about the i slump of his heavy shoulders and I the silent immobility of his big frame that touched her, though he himself, of all of them—except - perhaps Madame Kingsley—had i interested her the least He was i cold, she thought and hard, and contrary in his stubbornness; but just the same she waa sorry for him. For he was a man dethroned before his time. Helen did not join them for coffee, but later, after Anne had gone to her room, there came a knock at her door and Helen stood there in a flame and purple pajama suit, a lighted cigarette in a gold-ringed holder she wore on her index finger, a cocktail shaker in the other band, two glasses under one arm. "May I come in?" "Os course.** She entered, kicking the door shut behind her, put down the glasses and stood shaking the drink idly while she looked at Anne through half-closed eyes. "You're a nice .child," she said, and without waiting for a reply, she went on. "I thought we might have a nightcap together. I thought you might have questions to ask.* She poured out a drink 'for each of them, put down the shaker on the bureau and handed Anne her glass. "So I'm here to do the sister act.” Anne hesitated. This was meant to be a friendly gesture, she felt Or waa it? Was it merely prompted by curiosity? "What's the trouble between Gram and Madame Kingsley?" she asked, after a moment "Didn’t Alec tell you? It’s simply this. The mahogany and silver and Oriental rugs you see around are Madame Kingsley's. The pine and pewter are Doremus relics. That briefly, is the difference between them. A difference the Madame never lets Gram forget* She moved to the bed. and, dropping on its edge, continued. "Gram, as you bare seen. Is sharp and blunt and bossy. She I loves life and Isn't afraid of it or anyone In It The Madame, on the i other hand, is timid.

And her eyes laughed across at Anne, who said, "Now tell me something about the farm.* Helen shrugged. “Oh, the farm'. The whole subject bores me to extinction.

Anne said slowly, "That's toe bad.” "It’s wonderful!” Helen repeated. "I adore it. I egg them on.’ She lifted a band and patted back a yawn.
