There May Be Danger to Child In Excess Use Os Boric Acid

| By HERMAN N. BUNDESEN, M.D. BORIC acid has the reputation of being harmless because mild solutions are safe/tb use aS an eye wash. But boric acid and sodium borate can car&e severe poisoning if enough is taken. irito the body. r - „ There are several ways for these drugs to be absorbed, though not taken by mouth. Many times poisonings are due to anxious parents who dress a child’s wounds or rashes powdered boric acid. They use too much of the powder, ahd enough is absorbed to cause poisoning. No Warning Signs The danger is that harmless amounts, if applied repeatedly, can build up in the body without < any serious warning signs, until there is a fatal or nearly fata! amount in the body. The symptoms of boric acid poisoning usually include a feeling of nausea with vomiting and, possibly, abdominal cramps and 1 diarrhea. Stomach disorders can occur even though the drug was oiot taken hy mouth, but was ab-, sorbed some other way.-'*^:-Vomiting may be severe enough to throw up blood, and blood may j also be seen in the bowel move- * ment. A red rash usually appears I over most of the body, with wide- | spread shedding of skin after sevLera! days. T ■.. \ , . . :

i •. s Severe poisoning may taring on a shock condition, with fall of the blood pressure, bluish discoloration of the skin and rapid heart beat. Usually, the temperature 4s below normal. As the condition grows worse, the person falls? into a stupor, or even a coma, and still later may have convulsions. ■ ' 'io A! 1 i Methods of Treatment When this type of poisoning is discovered in a child, the best treatment calls for blood trapsfusitfns, and fluids and plasma injected through a vein. Oxygen should also be given. Adreno- , cortijcal extract is sometimes of help|n saving some of these cases. Antibiotics have been used to prevent? infections from developing. The poisoning is usually ■so severe, however, that the patient cannot be saved. This is why it is so important to prevent a tragedy of tips kind.. Don’t allow children near boric acid or sodium borate, and be careful of the amount you use in treating a child’s infection. I j ■ . QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS F. -R.

CHAPTER TWENTY-TWO ON SUNDAY morning, when Henri came doWn to get the News and Courier, iyj found Leonie on the piazza reading it and he knew front nci costurpe that she had already been to mass. v “By the way/’ Uncle,’’ she said, “I’m 'going out to see Lincoln’s new farm todaV. He wanted me to go, you rememtjjer.’’ Henri did not remember anything of the kind. “I suppose it will be a party,” he suggested. Garrlsonjgyirls; nb doubt.” He laughed hollowly; “Good day for a picnic.” f “Well,, no,” Leonie said. “It’s not a picnic; exactly. Lincoln is going to drive me over.” “You mean you intend to go alone with that boy?” Henri demanded, his moustaches bristling. “I don’t think! it’s proper. You don’t know him well —" “Uncle" Leonie said, "you’re a relic of the War. It’s perfectly proper. And I do well. We’ve known each other fifteen years.” “It’s not proper, that’s all. Gyirls never used to go for jaunts like that with young men, alone, unless they were known to be engaged.’! Leonie frowned and he r eyes snapped. “You just don’t want me to enjoy myself You want me to stay bottled up between here and the Battery, learning to do tatting. That’s what you sent me to college for.” “I’m thinking of what is best for you.” “I’m twenty-<J>ne. D o n’t you think I can decide a fe.W things for myself?” 4 “It’s not a question of being of age. That doesn’t alter the question one jot or tittle. You’re in our care before you go out into the world. And I’d like you to be less disrespectful.” j r “I’m, not being disrespectful.” “I can remerriber when a lady wouldn’t, go down Broad street in the daytime by herself,” Henri said. , “Don’t you think they were awful jackasses?” Leonie demanded. “Does Aiint Helplse have to have an escort to go down Broad street?” “You’re just tfying to make fun of me," Henri said, his voice gain- . ing volume, "and 1 don’t like it. This young man you propose to go traveling with is the son of one Unionist and the nephew of another!” 1 You cannot pave a trained bass voice and expeat it to perform m a murmur.

Besides, when we were young I wouldn’t have dreamed of taking her alone for a ride in a car.” weren’t any cars then,” Leonie said, remorselessly literal. Henri stamped,his foot. “Naturally I meant ? a buggy," he said angrily. “Don’t catch me up on trifles like that. 1 don’t like IL” “Well, I don’t believe you," Leonie said. “Plenty of people went about together even in those days." “Let’s go into the dining room,’* Heloise said. “I’m surprised at both of you, carrying on an argument like this right on the piazza.” She led the way in to breakfast; and Leonie and Henri followed, both annoyed at having their discussion broken off at a crucial pbinL “It seethstto me,” Heloise said, “that you could have asked us our opinion first, Leonie, before you made this engagement.” “I always ask you when I think anything is going to cause ineoni venience. Do I have to ask per- : mission every time I want to go out?” A It was the most familiar type of family, argument—the argument W circles: and it might have gone on indefinitely but for Henri’s next remark; ■> j "I don't approve of this young man’s principles,” he preluded. ;■ “j « J,. ! * ■ Leonie stood up, flung her napkin down, and flounced ouL She stopped in the doorway to denounce her uncle. “I don’t think much of persons who spy on conversations,” she said. “After this I won’t have my friends come to see me. I’ll meet them somewhere else.” She stomped up the stairs in a . fury. Henri’s breakfast was ruined; “You’re all against me," he said ■ angrily. !' ' ' < ■ I

CHAPTER TWENTY-THREE LEONIE and Lincoln rattled away in his dilapidated Ford, oblivious of the tact that dozens of eyps were Registering their trip. “Sure is mce you could come," Lincoln said, trying to keep the flivver from flying apart in the rutted macadam roadway. He squeezed the horn at a group of | colored urchins, who stared resenbyfully at the car as it passed. “I’m glad 1 could,” Leoniq/said. “It's nice to get out in the open.” Lincoln swung into Sprifig street, and headed for the rickety structure known remmisdently as the New bridge. They waited for the tollkeeper to come, after which they rattled across' the resonant planking and onto the heavy dirt road in SL Andrew’s parish. , r “There’s a fortune to be made | over s here,” Lincoln said. .“Land that just needs a little modern scientific care arid you can get two big crops out of it every year.”, \ 1 ’ Leonie stared through the heavy growth of Spanish moss, and out on either side to t neglected fields. | They passed a long row of Negro cabins, landscaped wi t h washtubs, old wheels, and broken boxes, and Lincoln called her attention to thfm. I •’Give these, people lie If q chance," h f e said, “and they could be of value to' the community.” “Do you really think they’re worth it?” Leonie asked. IfYes, 1 do, Leonie,” Lincoln said, “1 look pt‘<he matfer from a purely bcondmic view. The Negro is I very important to the South. There are so many of them. Every one of them could have something to ; contribute.” “You know," Leonie said, “you arc something like your uncle.” “My uncle," Lincoln said, “is one of the very few reasonable peoplp 1 know when it earned to certain matters. He never, let anybody do his thinking for him, either. \ "People think he’s a nut,” Lincoln went on, “but he’s just fifty years ahead of his time,\ that’s all.

If you want to do something useful with your Jife that's,’ the way to do it. 1 guess you think I sound foolish, ;i? “No, I don't,” Leonie said. “I’m talking big.” Lincoln said with sudden bitterness, “when I 4*aren’t even got the monby to pay for my little truck farm. .First of all I’ve got to get that started and put up a decent house, and then I’ve got to pay back the money I’ve borrowqd.” \ He ran the Ford along a bumpy wagon track and stopped it, at a barred gate. ’"Calvert’s Folly,” he .said, pointing to a long stretch of flat iand badly grown over with weeds and canes. “Watch your skirts and look out tor holes. Here, I'll take that basket.” * ' He swung the picnic ’basket under his arm, gave Leonie a hand, and led her through the gate toi a Clbs.er view of his hopes. ' That evening Henri and Heloise found Leonie in high spirits. She answered their inquiries with a flood of enthusiastic -information about the projects and visions Lincoln Calvert hid divulged. “It’s so vvondcriul!” Iconic said. "To take barehaind like that and transforni it into a beautiful home and a model truck farm! Did you know that Lincoln was going to teach all the Negroes to farm the way he learned ,up at Cornell ? That’s one of the reasons why he was so anxious to itart. He says it's a social project as well as a pcrspnal one.” “I Hope he’ll be very successful.” Heloise said doubtfully. “Lincoln says pe future of the South is bound up with wha| the colored people are able tp dt> for themselves. He says that as its they are ah economic liability \thc Soutli will always be 'backward.” ''! - ■ ■, ly > “It sounds very fine,” Henri said sourly. “There's nothing the mat| ter with the South except that it is trying to copy the, rest of the country and be modern instead ol preserving its own good xjualities/’, “Do you want to stand' still for-! ever?” Leonie exasperated. “Well,, 1 don’t say\ I want to stand still,” Henri “but
