Newer Type of Penicillin Used To Treat Disorders of Lung

; By HERMAN N. BUNDESEN, M.D. 1 WHEN penicillin was first dlstovered, it had to be given every tew hours in very large doses in order to control infections. Since then, however, penicillin has been made in various improved ’ terms. / A type of penicillin combined With Oil was perfected, which was ,\ very long-lasting in ita action, requiting but - one injection a day. Unfortunately, many people had allergic reactions to the oil, so a new compound was brought out, in which the penicillin was combined with a local anesthetic called procaine. ; Gradual Action. > ’ i: This type of penicillin Is now widely' used. After it is injected into a muscle it acts gradually, providing prolonged effectiveness against germs. However, this I type, too, has caused, allergic reactions, although fewer than the penicillin with oil. Later, still another type of penicillin was discovered which caused very few allergic symptoms. x , - Recently, a newer pe ilciEin has been perfected which gives even more dramatic results. It is known as Neo-Penil, and is a ,v combination of penicillin, a type oFalcohol, and an iodide. ■■ 5 Acts in Blood Stream / ’ This drug has a very distinctive property of collecting in the lungs and certain other organs. Although It enters the body fluids, It has no activity until it reaches .. the blood stream, It then has a tendency to concentrate in the J iung ’tissues. _ 1 I ■' ■ I J■ —

The. amount that passes to the lungs is- three to five times larger than with the usual type&of penicillin. The lung tissues seem to act like a depot for nearly all of the penicillin that enters the blood stream, and this penicillin be? comes active in the lungs after \;. by-passing most other tissues. ■\ ; Superior to Dost Form This unusual property gives us a- much improved method of treating lung infections, Superior to the use of penicillin in the form of a dust. It has been especially effective In chronjC diseases, such { as bronchiectasis, an infection of i the tubes in the lungs [leading to the air sacs. It also helps severe bronchitis. ■ We thus have promise of a new and more wonderful role for penicillin in conquering severe lung infections. pH QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS M. B.: What causes nails to easily? Answer: There is a condition affecting the nails that runs in families. This causes the nails to be very fragile and easily broken. Up to the present time, no treatment has been discovered for this condition. Sometimes, arsenic, taken internally; is helpful, but this should be taken only under the direction of a physi- ( cian, The nails should be protected against bruising and injury as much as The diet should be Well balanced and should contain an adequate amount of vitamins* especially vitamin B. | ' y■'■ 'j . 1 ■ ’ ’ : L ■ .

CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE EASING into his own drive, Jeremy saw that all the house—save for his office win g —W a s ablaze with lights. Some of Eve’s friends, probably, for dinner;. \ I She had made friends quickly—not the wives of the doctors to whom Jeremy had introduced her. She found them boring, she said, with their talk of baby’s formulas and nursery schools and staff teas. Eve’s friends were the bright, amusing station-wagon set she met at the Country club. A prosperous crowd. Fun-loving and irresponsible. The men were salesmen and Junior executives, and most of them made more money than he, Jeremy figured. Their wives were pretty, well-dressed. They talked of movies, dances, clothes, parties. Eve enjoyed them. Jeremy found them tremendously dult Shouts came at him from, the livingroom. Someone sat down at the piano, and they sang, “Happy birthday bp you, Happy birthday to you; Happy birthday, dear Jeremy...” Eve, in a gown with an unabashed plunge of neckline, came over to him and put her arms \ around him. J ‘ > . He kissed her 11 fte d, parted mouth, although he always . felt like a fool doing this in public. 'H “How did you know this was my birthday?” he asked her. “This came.” She moved away, brought a card, tossed it to him. Eve always opened his mail. It irritated Jeremy, but Eve shrugged and said if he had nothing to keep in the dark, what did it matter? It wasn’t that at all, he tried to tell her, but he couldn’t make her Birthday greetings to my son , U , Lavender-scented, pink; roses, cherubs. Eleanor always s went in for cards like this. The verse inside would be a hearts-and-floweifs sentiment, too. Eve had probably howled with glee over it. I “There’s a card from Nance, too,” she said. It was a pen-and-ink drawing of a! long-legged heron, pipe and all, with smoke drifting up into letter i that spelled Pout “What Is ft?” someone asked. 1 stork?” I . “Sure.” There was a guffaw. “Jeremy delivers the babies t” Eve looked at it with him. She said, “It almost looks like you,, Jeremy. Doesn’t it? Everyone thinks so.” ; j J I He went red at the thought of Nance’s card being passed around. He could imagine the comments. He slipped it th his pocket. Better hurry dinner, qr they’d I; I d .

keep this up and make a night of it. He went to the kitchen. Eve had hired a Chinese cook, Song Lee. “Darling,” she had wailed to Jeremy. “Song speaks better English than I do!” He’d been half-amused. “What did you expect, pidgin English end a long queue?” \ ■ Eve had pouted. But she kept Song Lee on. He was an excellent cook. - j . “Dinner ready, Song?” Jeremy asked. \' . < h . “Yes, sir." fl , f “Then I think wfe’ll have lit at once.” “Yes, sir.” Jeremy smiled at the Chinese, whose almond-shaped eyes revealed nothing of what he thought of the hubbub in the living room. They were singing again and the pianist, Jeremy: thought grimly, was no Iturbl. He winced at the discords, shrugged faintly at Song Lee, and turned to Eve’s guests. He glanced at his watch. He’d have to eat and bolt. Eve wouldn’t like that, but his office hours were from seven to nine—or ten, sometimes. Perhaps there was something to Eve’s complaints About being neglected. But so were other doctors’ wives. Jeremy wished he knew the answer; there seemed none, unless ft was more doctors and more time for a personal life for all of them. Still, Eve must have known it, would be Hke-this. Dinner was noisy. Jeremy, conserving his energy for the evening’s work, and already feeling the strain of eight full hours at the hospital, felt buffeted by the laughter and unamused by the bright talk. There was a roar of protest when he got up, after coffee, and said they’d have to carry on without him. “But you’re the guest of honor!” Eve protested. || “My patients don’t know that,” he told her, “Nor care, particularly." , Eve pushed out her lower lip. “There ought to be a union.” The old catch phrase. His mother and Nance used it at times like this, too, Only differently, somehow. They knew how it was with him. They respected the Oath of Hippocrates. Nance had memorized it, and said the words with him like a sacrament, right after graduation. “I will keep pure and holy both my life and my art ... if I carry out this oath and break it not, may I gain forever reputation among all men . J . but if 1 transgress it and foreswear myself, may the opposite befall me.*.” 1: !u ' X '!• I i - •id ?;V ; ■ls '

Nance had said, There can’t be any compromise, can theres K Nance Understood. He doubted if Eve had ever heard of Hippocrates. Eve had a fine surface gloss; she diligently read the best sellers, knew who was playing in what on Broadway* subscribed to the right magazines, and collected albums of the classics . a .although she preferred Frankie Carl to Sanroma. Her tastes were neither fastidious noir' independent, her perceptions were blurred, her knowledge nether deep nor diversified. Jeremy didn’t mind. Sometimes, seeing het scurrying to keep up with the opinions of the.'Joneses, he felt j a sort of tender indulgence. He did wish, though, that she realized a doctor had a Certain amount of responsibility to his fallow men. He switched on the office lights and lowered the shades. He worked , alone, qvenings. Hester Graham, the registered nurse, left at five unless he specially asked her to work overtime. He glanced at the appointment pad.* j f At Donald Urquhart had an appointment. Jeremy’s finger, runnihg down the list, stopped there, Simon Urquhart’s son, A year ago the boy had collapsed with a tetany caused by an acute calcium’: deficiency, and now!. hS suffered! severe migraines. Jeremy wondered fleetingly who’d be the research man to get at the root of migraines. But his-mind was only half on’the boy, more, at the moment, on the boy’s father. 1 He thrust aside the nag of uneasiness over the attitude of the hospital' board members. He was shrugging into his starched jacket when the buzzer rang to announce his first patient. KY j He worked steadily for an hbur, noting with satisfaction that he was running almost to the minute on schedule and not, as frequently happened, lagging behind. At this rate he’d be through by dine. In time to rejoin Eve and her friends. She’d like that. Personally, he thought, rd like nothing better than to go to bed. I’m tired. He heard a commotion in the waiting room. He frowned, murmured an apology to the patient whose blood count he had just taken, and opened the door. . Eve was in the waiting room. The low-necked dress looked suddenly -shocking. She had tn her hands a : tray of glasses and a decanter qf wine. Jeremy went taut. five said, “My husband’s birthday!"

They call at the most ungodly hours! And you let them Walk all over you!" He was reknotting his tie. Anger pushed up in, him. Controlling it left him weak. And that wasn't good. In an hour a life would be in his hands. Keep your mind on that, fle counseled himself, holding down the anger. “Jeremy,” she said softly, coin* ing over to him, “don’t go. Stay with me.” I • He wanted to. He wanted to stay here and take her in his arms. But he said gently, “I can’t, Eve.” Two hours later he left the operating room. ' “Doctor Ireland," called a nurse at the diet: kitchen door, as he went towards ;the elevator. "Drink this.” Gratefully Jie gulped the hot black coffee, handed her the empty cup. He did not know het name. Perhaps, anonymous in a white mask, she had worked with him’ in * the operating roorii. He smiled at her and went to the elevator. On his way out, by the ambulance entrance where he had left his car, he paused. He stood a in indecision, then aboutfaced and walked into the glasspartitioned office of the admitting department. bp 1 “‘Hi, Jonesy," he said to the uni- ‘ formed nupse at the desk. She was idling through'a magazine. She said, “Hello, Doctor.” "I thought you worked days, Jonesy. How come you’re doing the graveyard stint?” “Telfer ran her hand through the wringer of a washing machine," Jonesy explained. “So Simmons and I are doubling up. We should have a spare girl for emergencies like this. I don't know what we'd do if two of us got sick at the same time. Or the three of us! In this department, you have to stay healthy! Why don’t they hire us an adequate staff? Don’t bother answering that,” she said with a wry grin. (To Be Continued). ~
