Penicillin in Ointment Form

D EV KN such a drug as penicillin usually so safe under medical ad in in Ist ration, and sure in its action against germs, has Its limitations and drawbacks We would naturally espv< t salves containing penicillin to be of great value in the treatment of skin disorders. because in thia way a high concentration of the drug can be| applied directly to the site of tbai injection In practice, however, we have' found that penicillin ointment |J not always so useful a* we had' hoped.

With few exceptions, orchestras and opera companies have not paid their own way for many years, if they ever did They have relied on the gifts of wealthy patrons and in most other countries or. government subsidies. Many cities in this country have begun to sub sidize musical enterprises ( But in the last few years the gift? I have not been enough Rising costs have reduced the usefulness of en downinents and other sources of fixed income, and have increased the needs for funds At the same time donors of large gifts have been shrinking in number. Managers despair of increasing revenue from ticket sales, and one solution being widely suggested it that the musical groups should b. placed primarily on a basis of tax support, like art museums <u schools.

"1 don’t believe it! Hoc much?" "Five hundred pounds." She drew ner breath in sharply. David said musingly: "1 wonder how much Frances Is going to ask tor ? Really It's hardly safe to leave Rosalcen alone for five minutes! The poor girl docsn t know how to say No." "Have there been—who else?" David smiled mockingly. “Aunt Kathie had incurred certain debts—oh. nothing much, a mere two hundred and fifty covered them—but she was afraid it might get to the doctor’s ears! Since they had been occasioned by payments to mediums, ne night not have been sympathetic. She didn't know, ot course." added David. "that the doctor himself had applied tor a loan." Lynn said in a low voice. "What you must think of us—what you must think ot us!" Then, taking him by surprise, she turned and ran helter-skelter down the hill to the farm. He frowned as he watched her go. She had gone to Rowley. flown there as a homing pigeon flics, and the fact disturbed him more than he cared to acknowledge. He looked up the hill again and frowned. • , "No. Frances.” he said under hie breath. "1 think not. You’ve chosen a bed day." and he strode purposefully up the hili. He went through the gate and down through the azaleas -crossed the lawn, and came quietly tn through the window of the drawing room just as Frances Cloade wbs saying: “—1 wish I could make tt all clearer.

"Oh. David." she said easily, i "I’m glad you’ve come. I’ve just been telling Rosaleen. Gordons death has left Jeremy in no end ot a hole, and I'm wondering if she could possibly come to the rescue. It’s like this—" Her tongue flowed on swiftly—the large sum involved—Gordons backing—promised verbally—Gov- i ernment restrictions—mortgages— A certain admiration stirred in the darkness ot David's mind. What a damned good liar the wo- ' man was! Plausible, the whole 1 story. But not the truth. No, ne’d take his oath ot that. Not the truth! What, ne wondered, was the truth? Jeremy been getting himself into Queer Street ? It must be something pretty desperate, if he was allowing Frances to eome and try this stunt. She waa a proud woman, too— He said. "Ten thousand?" Rosaleen murmured in an awed voice: • "That’s a lot of money." Frances said swiftly; "Oh. 1 know it is. I wouldn’t come to you it it wasn't such s difficult sum to raise. But Jeremy would never nave gone into the deal if It hadn t been tor Gordon s backing It’s so dreadfully unfortunate that Gordon should have died so suddenly—" "Leaving you al) out In the cold?" David’s voice was unpleasant. "After a sheltered Ute under hta wing" There was a faint flash In Frances' eyes as she said: "You put things so picturesquely!" "Rosaleen can’t touch the capital. you know. Only the income. And she pays about nineteen and six in the pound income tax." "Oh I know. Taxation s dreadful these daya But It could be managed, couldn't It? We’d repay-" He interrupted: "It could be managed. But tt won’t be!" Frances turned swiftly to Rosaleen.

not resented Rosaleen—but 1 do resent—you!" "What do you mean? 1 ’ He scowled at her. "Women must live. Rosaleen married a very rich man, years older than herself. Why not? But you! You must live on your sister, live on the fat ot the land, live softly—on h< r." "I stand between her and harpies." They stood looking at each other. He was aware of her anger and the thought flashed across him j that Frances Cloade was a dangerous enemy, one who could be both unscrupulous and reckless. When she opened ner mouth to \ speak, ne even felt a moment's apprehension. But what she said was singularly noncommittal. "1 shall remember what you have said, David." Passing him, she went out of the window. He wondered why be felt so strongly that the words had been a threat Rosaleen was crying. "Oh David. David you oughtn't to nave been saying those things to ner. She a the one of them that’s been the nicest to me." He said furiously: "Shut up. you little tool. Do you want them to trample al) over you and bleed you ot every penny?" “But the money-if—if it isn’t rightfully mine—" , She quailed before his glance. "I—l didn’t mean that, David." "1 should hope not." Conscience, he thought, was the devil! He hadn't reckoned with the item ot Rosaleen's conscience. It waa going to make things awkward in the future. The future? He frowned as he looked at her and let his thoughts race ahead. Roasicen's future— His own— He'd always known what he wanted—he knew nowBut Rosaleen? What future waa there for Rosaleen? As his face darkened—she cried out—suddenly shivering: "Oh! S >meone'a walking over my grave." He said, looking at her curiously: "So you realise it may come to ■ that?" "What dp you mean. David?" "I mean that five—six—seven people nave every intention to hurry you into your grave before you're due there!" "You don't mean—m urd e r—" ! Her voice was horrified.
