——— , —.— — Misuse Os Penicillin May .Lead To Very Serious Complications !

j By HERMAN N. 3UNDES», M.D. ; WHILE we all know that penicillin has proved to be a life-sav-ing discovery, the public should be alerted to the fact that penicillin, when misused, can cause really severe illness—and) at times even death, j, Sometimes I overhear people ■ say, “Science has made it easy for the doctor nowadays. All he has > to do is fall back on penicillin or the stilfa drugs for almost anything in the medical books.” ' ? i J Not a Cure-AU Unfortunately, it isn’t as easy as that. Penicillin, while a great boon, is no cure-all, but a powert ful drug that can easily be misused, if not taken under tihe directions of a physician. The increase in the number of severe reactions and fatalities from penicillin has been alarming, and it is high time for the general public to heed this warning. Penicillin should be taken only when necessary, and, of the doctor is the best ■'i judge of its adequate use. t Penicillin reactions usually occur in persons who have had pro- _ longed treatment with penicillin, perhaps at some previous time. These people may develop an allergy to the drug. Still others are \ allergic to it by nature. j Form of Serum Sickness . One of the worst complications of penicillin in those allergic to it Is a form of serum sickness. It ! * does not occur very often in children, but is seen to a great extent in adults, more often in women than men. . Serum sickness from penicillin

Mr. announces that the citizens for Eisenhower organization which w|orked for his nomination will be continued but will bp considered secondary to ; the national committee.

usually occurs from seven ta fourteen days after the person has started taking the drug. Req “hives” break out over the body ■ in most cases, and swelling of different parts, such as the tongue, nose, arm, face, or leg, may alsq occur. There are pains and swell-} ing of the joints, and severe itch-: ing. A purple rash may appear. I' Various treatments have been used to relieve penicillin reactions—antihistaminlc drugs, calcium Injections, adrenalin, vitamin K, novocaine, cortisone, and. ACTH. Novocaine injections, cortisone, and ACTH have given es-. pecially. good results. The antihistaminics may give temporary relief. New Treatment A new method,' using a drug ! ‘ known as sodiunti dehydrocholate/ has given excellent results. This; is injected into a vein dally, or every other day, and at the same time a slightly different form is given by mouth three times a day.l However, it is better to prevent! j an illness than to treat it. Your doctor will tell you that anyone ‘ ! who has shown signs of allergy : and, needs penicillin should be given one of the new types of penicillin which do not cause allergic reactions. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS W.R.: My newborn baby has a flat red birthmark. Will it disappear? | < Answer: As a rule, flat red marks disappear as the child grows older. Later on they may be skillfully treated with X-ray | and radium, or carbon dioxide snow. 7

CHAPTER TWENTY-TWO BLAISE and Thatcher had been sitting glumly for a long time when someone pounded on the front door, pushed it open, and came hurrying down the hall. They were both on their feet when Raikes came striding into the room. t “We caught 1 us a night rider,” he said shortly, “out beyond the corrals. He wants to See the Boss.” “From . . . Rennie?" "He won’t say nothing except to you, but I think he is." “Then bring hiin in!" \ Raikes nodded, turned on his heel, called an order and soon boots sounded loud. ' “This Is him,” Raikes said. Two Montanas riders shoved a third man forward. He caught himself, sneered and spat deliberately at their feet. Raikes’s face turned scarlet and his big hand struck out, the fingers tightening on the man’s ! neck. “Leave him be!" Thatcher snapped. Raikes stepped back and the man rubbed his dirty neck. At last he said. “Who is patron of Rancho de Las Montanas?” .’’l am,” Thatcher replied. | “I have a word for you, senor. I have come from Senor Vasquez. He has a guest.” “An unexpected one,” Blaise said dryly. L "Si, that is right She is very lovely and Tibur ic 1 o is most pleased. But she .will stay maybe a short time, maybe a long time.” “Get to the point,” Thatcher j snapped. “Senor Vasquez think that per- ■ haps she stay short time if he is repaid for . . . the comfortable ccwa 'he provide for her and. the food. It is to be considered, senor. | She is well, untouched. That is to be considered, too.” j “And the board and lodgings?” Thatcher demanded. ! The cholo lifted his shoulders in a characteristic gesture. "For some ! i less, for some more. For Senorita Thatcher we have given our best. Senor Vasquez has set a very reasonable price . . . ten thousand dollars.” ' “Ten thous—! Why, you ~. .!” Thatcher lunged for him, but Blaise checked the older man. “Easy! Easy! Let me handle j this. Tell the man you’ll decide by morning. Keep him here." "Blaise, I can’t. It’s taking a j chance." ' “I don’t think so. Do as I say. j I’ll explain later.”

Thatcher looked around, eyes still misted. "Call Raikes. He'll be just outride the door." Blaise strode to the outer door and brought Raikes and his two men back. Thatcher had already spoken to the cholo, who looked uncertain and suspicious. Thatcher signaled to take the map away. “Hold him until morning. Then bring him here.” They led the bandit away and Thatcher walked to his chair, sat down heavily. He looked up at Blaise. V ; “Now what? What did we gain?” “Time,” Blaise said. “I’m saddling up and leaving right away. In the \ morning, tell that cholo you’ll agree to the random, to anything. Then turn him loose.” "But you didn’t want —” "To pay the ransom,” Blaise nodded, "nor risk Rennie. We won’t do either." H<? described quickly and graphically his search for Hal. “I lost the trail, but Vasquez’s hideout is close around. It’s bound to be. This cholo will ride direct to Vasquez. I’ll trail him to the hidecut and then wait for you and the men.” "But how will we know where you are!” “Just beyond the Calabasas path, I’ll start blazing trail—one rock I atop another with a third to the side to mark the direction. Raikes '■ will be able to follow it.” “Air right. We’ll do as you say. • But if at any time It looks bad for ’ Rennie, I’ll pay ten thousand with- • out a quiver, i Understand that.” "Yes, sir. Tell Raikes to follow • my sign, starting south of the road, i just beyond the pass. I’ll be riding : now.” ; “Good luck.” Thatcher arose and . took his hand. > Blaise stopped briefly at the big bunkhouse down below, to tell Hal ’ the general direction to take and landmarks that would guide him. i Then he rode on. s Back in the canyon, Blaise set i himself to wait Light increased . and the sky glowed with the com- ■ ing of the sun. Warmth crept back 1 into Blaise’s chilled frame. From his hiding place he scanned the line of the ridges around him. Vast quez had undoubtedly taken the . direct trail from Calabasas to the j hideout with Hal, and the messcnr ger would do the same. That would bring him into bight just below. i Soona man came through the cleft and' into the meadow. It was . the pockmarked cholo, now rearmed. The man did not so much

He followed the watercourse around its sharp turn and disappeared. , Blaise’s eyes widened in surprise. He whipped around and jumped into the saddle. He rode directly down the slope to the watercourse and turned into it He stopped a ( moment to set another sign and then went on. He rode cautiously because of the man ahead, hidden from sight by the twisting turns of the ravine. It widened, turned sharply again and opened into a wide meadow. , Blaise pulled up. still just within the mouth of the ravine. He saw his man across the meadow, heading directly toward another solid wall of rock. As Blaise watched, he heard a distant shout, and movement on the far rock rampart i caught his eye. A man stood lined against the sky. The messenger lifted his arm in a swift salute and rode on, disappearing into a narrow crevice.

The guard turned and stood up as the ’ second man appeared, who was also armed with Colt and rifle. “It is time,” the guard growled. “You’re ah hour late.” “Martinez came,” the second [ shrugged. “Tiburicio says that we , will soon have plenty pesos.” “I saw Martinez come through. ; So they will pay the ransom, eh!” I He lost his ill teipper at the thought, grinned, stretched and : rolled a cigarette. “How is it to i be done?” i “In the morning, We ride out There will be a meeting.

Chicago Gambling King Is Murdered '- I jfl’ ' j’ fl . - i ’ Millionaire Negro Slain Monday Night CHICAGO, UP—Theodore Teddy Roe, [king of a huge gambling ring on Chicago’s South Side, was spot down in the gutter Monday night by gangland guns, and* his empire was iup for grabs. > ' No; one knew who would mouAt the throne and take over the 54-year-pld Negro’s lucrative operations! ' • ' Ro j was murdered in front of his home. Two shotgun blasts hit him in the chest and another blew a bole in the right side of his neckj He never had a chance to . draw his own pistol. Ths millionaire Negro was £he undisputed king of the policy racket, about the only kind o[f gambling still thriving strongly in Chicago since the Kefauver crime investigating and the federal gambling stam > law. , It has long been known that whitq gangsters from the west side were jealous of Roe’s rich take from the policy wheels. Once three men tried to kidnap him, but Roe managed to whip out his-own gun and iihoot his way free. A syndicate hoodlum, Leonard Fat : Jenny Caifano, was killed in cthat gunfight. Hop’s bqdy was found in the gutter by park district patrolman Wayhe Williams. Police could find no ej ewitnesses to the slaying, but several people, including the gambler’s wife, heard the shots. Thp slain gambler’s wife, Mary, flung open a window after hearing ' the s[hots, and screamed: “Tpddy, Teddy, is that you?” When phe heard nothing but the sound of a speeding auto, she slammed the window shut and called police. “I was scared.’’ she told officers. "I couldn't go out. We both have beqn scared to death since Caifano was killed.”’
