Surgery On Tuberculosis Bone Made Safer By The New Drugs

By HERMAN N. BUNDESEN, M.D> ANTIBIOTICS and other new drugs are now making it possible to operate on tuberculosis of the . bone with safety, it was long the rule to avoid surgery In this cofid? 'on. Tuberculosis of the bone is not seen too frequently at the present time; Some years ago, this kind of tuberculosis occurred very often, due to contamination of milk With tuberculosis germs. However, since” milk now is almost universally pasteurised, tuberculosis of the bone from this source occurs but rarely. It usually develops following a tuberculosis Infection somewhere else tn the body. I Rest Main Treatment The main treatment for this form of tuberculosis has been to ' rest the affected part, as disastrous results have been reported _ following surgery on tuberculous bone. In the past, it was generally believed that such an operation might endanger the patient by spreading the infection throughout his body. Now, with the new drugs, surgical treatment is more prevalent. Before performing an operation, however, the surgeon is careful to take certain precautions. The patient must not have a fever or other condition which weakens the body. He must be properly rested, fed, and strengthened. The bone due to undergo opera’J tiers shduld be kept at rest with

The New York Times Magazine, ’ after a study of the Salaries of I1 our legislators, concludes that if' they had to --depend on their s government salaries entirely most ; of them would end each year with L a deficit of over $3,000? \ ?1 Including allowances. Congressmen receive about 115,00. Oul of this must come taxes, club dues; political and social obligations t which are much heavier than . those of the ordinary citizen. Most !

a splint or other device that prevents motion. Usually, streptomycin is given before surgery, together with the drug commonly known as PAS. \ If Active TH Is Fresent ft If active chest tuberculosis is present along with the bone infection, an operation should not be performed. The bone operation should remove tubercular tissue completely if it is to prevent complications, During operation, the tissues must be handled gently. ( with the help of these newer methods and drugs, the surgeon can now arrest or permanently cure many cases of tuberculosis of the bones and joints that were formerly thought out of his field. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS L. M. C.: When is the best time to wean the baby? How Boes one gOjaboutit? >. Answer: Usually, weaning of the baby is started at four months of age. At this time ;a cereal is given in addition to ; the breast feeding. At five months of age, many physicians recommend that the baby be given a veger table feeding. At this age, cow’s milk is usually gradually substituted for breast milk, although breast milk is given Along with the cow’s milk. |. H Weaning should'not be done when the baby is sick or is getting over an illness, or when the weather is excessively hot. I

CHAPTER TWENTY-THREE FROM below Liddell could hear the stamp of heavy footsteps. He bolted the nail door, made for the bedroom.; Inside, he closed the door aftejr him, doused the light, headed for the window, raised it. It was a relatively short drop to the square below.. He slid a leg over the sill, caught on with his hands, dr 6 p<p himself to the courtyard. AboVe he could hear sounds of mounting commotion in the apartment he had just quitted. A light flashed oh in the bedroom window and a hoarse voice shouted. Liddell made hisway cautiously across the courtyard toward a door, apparently leading to an alley. He had barely reached the courtyard door when a form was silhouetted at the window above. There was a spouted order to “Halt;” Liddell kept going, reached the door, opened it and slammed it Shut behind him. There was a series of sharp snaps and ugly, jagged holes ripped through the Wooden door. Liddell kept going.} At the far end of the alley, he came out into a street. A cab Cruised by. stopped for his hail. Liddell gave an address on Central . Park West, leaned back. From close by came the shriek and wail Os sirens. “Looks like there’s plenty of ex-\ citemeht going on some place around pefje,” the cabby grunted. “Eithef that or some flattie doing the late shift just don’t want nobody elso to sleep either." Muggsy opened the door in response tp his knock. She was wearing a dose-fitting hostess gown of some Clingy material. Her sleepheavy eyes widened when she recognized Liddell. He slid by her, closed the door behind him. Muggsy stabbed automatically at her tousled hair, followed him into the living room. “Whit time is it?” she demanded. 1 •'Nearly six," Liddell told her. He dropped onto the sofa, jabbed gingerly;at the sensitive spots on the top pf his head \ “What’s happened?” M ugg s y wanted, to know. Liddell groaned. “I’m in a jam, baby. A real jam.” ’Bad?” Liddell grinned bleakly. “The works. Murder.” He slid over, made room for her on the couch. “A beautiful picture with a frame to rnatclj and me sitting front row center.” j Muggsy shook her head confusedly. :“1 guess' l',m thick.

He stopped struggling.” He ran the heel of his hand along his chin/ "When 1 came to, he was dead. So was his girl. Both killed with my gun!” Muggsy Kiely picked a cigaret from the box on the coffee table, lost a fight to keep her hand from shaking as she tit it. “What are we going to do?" “Lay low. The only way to prove 1 didn't do it is to get the guy who did.” Liddell reached over, took the cigaret from Ibetween the blonde’B lips, took! a deep drag, gave it back. “But the only way I’m going to be able to do that is to stay-in the clear.” \ “But why should they even suspect you. Johnny?” “Because the job id practically signed with my name. Herlehy knows 1 was after Lunfar. The bartender in the club Where the girl works knows 1 went on the make for her tonight. The slugs In them came from my gun." \ “But if they don’t get the gun to Compare with the slugs? They might suspect, but they couldn’t prove." ; Liddell Shook his head. "No such Jude, A couple of slugs from my gun are on file at beadquarters. The ones they dug out of that Joey in the Nancy -Hayes killing." “But that was self-defense, arid — r * Liddell covered her hand with his, squeezed. “I know. baby.
