- - — Diseases Caused By Viruses Are Often Difficult to Treat; ....’

By HERMAN IL BIWDESEN, M.p. MUCH attention has been given in recent yean to With the electron microscope. we; can even see these tiny and mys-i terious gprms, and we are be- ' | ginning to learn more about com-: bating them. ~ Many diseases, such as mumps, the common cold, measles, polio,; virus pneumonia and many others are caused by viruses. \ Viruses need living material on which to grow. It seems that if a; j virus does not have Hiving material to grow on. it will die. small Dost* j It is believed that many people carry small doses ,of viruses in. their bodies all the time, without developing any disease. Sometimes other animals surh as flies i or birds may carry these virus l| germs until they can be spread to man. Often virus diseases are the type that hang on a fairly long; time. Many of them are usually very difficult to cure, and there; are very few specific drugs known as yet to be effective against; them. c • , In a virus disease, the white : cells in the blood are apt to be decreased, though in other itotoc-' tious diseases a rise in the white blood count is an indication that the Infection is present. Vaccines have been perfected tor certain caaeael virus discuses.

Residents along these streets — Mercer Avenue, Seqond, Monroe and Thirteenth ; streets, are asked not to park their cars \along the curb during these early morning hours. . The hours of street cleaning are from TWO to SEVEN A.M. Run your car into the garage or in your driveway, so workmen can clean tlie street along the curbing in front of your property. Spring is here and it’stclean-nri time!

The tcpVn is located in the heart of a coal-field and .provides an .easily accessible source. The project will begin operation as’sooh as customers for piped co il have been located. Already two Ohio Utilitjr company are ,said to De interested. ,?- - I The coal will be pulverized and niixed with water. The solution will be piped in tubes as large as 36 inches in diameters Users will siphon it off at their end of the piping process and will dry the \Coal which will then burn as easily as it would have'done in its original state.' Thisi method should reduce transportation costs.

Including smallpox, which mai be prevented by these vaccines. Drugs and Antibiotics { \ ’ Trachoma, a virus disease of I the eye, seems to be helped by ths I sulfa drugs along with penicillin, auteomycin and cortisone. The treatment of virus pneumonia seems to be helped in a few cases by aureomycin and terramycin. Recent experiments have shown that para-aminobenfcoic add, a drug known as RLAJSt, and other substances may help weaken the infecting power of viruses and thus may be useful ?in treating these typps of infection. However, this is still in the experimental stages. pf The rickettsla are another type of organisms very similar to viruses, but are slightly larger. Rickettsial diseases hive recently 1 been helped by newer antibiotic drugs, such as terramycin and aureomycin, along with paraaminobenzoic acid. ; QUESTION AND ANSWER T. R.: I have a bleast tumor. I have been advised? to have a biopsy made to determine whether it is malignant or- not. What would you advise? Answer: By all means have this test performed.

SYNOPSIS Comely* Miss Carol Marsden Is en rout* froth England to New York and Paint Beach, to an exchange lob in the smart Appleton apparel , shops in these cities. TtVa <• the result of an sward which she tjad won as a buyer j. for Felton s Department Store of London Her employer, gay. young widowed Thelma Felton and handsome bachelor Deres Aup I e ton of the famous New York firm, accompany Carol aboard, the Queen Mary. Thelma, a shameless adventuress had managed to wangle the Felton estate from her late doting, senile nusband. so that now she owns the Felton store. As the ship sails, we find ae- in her luxurious cabin, assorting her many bon voyage floral tribctes. Among these she coines upon an ugly flowering cactus and the sight of It causes her to faint th fear. Recovering composure. Thelma pursues Derek Apple .on lelentlessiy. making a play for his favor But that first night at sea. he manages to escape her long enougr. to dance divinely with Carol Marsden. CHAPTER NINE | IT WAS heavenly to wake up without an alarm bell ringing th your ears, heavenly to stretch lazily and luxuriously and know it didn’t matter at what time you breakfasted. Even if you missed breakfast in the dining room,. IV would !be served you tn your cabin. Lovely to feel this sense of complete relaxation, to see the sunshine seeping In through the porthole curtains, to feel\ the comfortable motion of the khip, to know you were away from every care and worry. She* frowned momentarily thinking of « Murphy: then she grinned and wondered if it mightn’t be a little \ jealousy on her part that made her so distrustful of MurpMy’s judgment. J . She got out of bed and drew the curtains; the sunshine flooded in, she saw it sparkling on thh\ sea: her whole being seemed to respond, and she felt alive and sparkling too. She dressed In a grey woolen skirt and a light green Woolen sweater: she went down to break-, fast* and noticed ' that though Derek was already at his table, Thelma wasn’t. Her; table companions had already finished and it wasn’t long before Derek came over and asked if he might jdin her and smoke a cigaret. They talked easily, commenting about the voyage and the other passengers. If last night their relationship had had a tinge of romance, this morning they, were good friends. He suggested that they go up on the top deck and play games, and she agreed. They •played quoita. «h\mlet»ard. and deck tennis untl l bouillon was served shortly after eleven o’clock. Then they atretohsd laaly in deck and the steward wrap her in • rug while they talked. On this floating ocean world, things happening on the shore seemed curiously remote and unimportant She felt younger than she Had for years, as though she had stepped back into her teens . . . But shortly after twelve Thelma Felton joined them.

She wore a blue tailored sportsf dress, ano a bf-pe scarf that matched her eyes was wound about* her nair. She looked trail and lovely, but Carol noticed there were shadows under her eyes whl c h: suggested she. hadn’t slept well. Derek arranged a chair for her beside them, and though she spoke in a friendly way to Carol, it wasn’t long before she suggested to Derek that they go down to* the cocktail joungc. When he asked Carol to join: them, Thelma intervened, smiling, “I’m sure Miss Marston won’t want to come. She’s one of our out-of-doors British girls, not a bar fly as 1 am, Derek." A Nuts, Carol thought disgustedly as she watched them move away, how can you be an out-of-doors girl if you have to spend eight hours a day in Felton’s, as I have for the past six years ? She didn’t see either of them again during the remainder of the day and she had to admit she was a little hurt. Was she merely a string, someone so Derek to amuse himself with when Thelma wasn’t there? Almost in a mood of defiance,' she put on her favorite evening dress that night, a strapless satin gown that was almost the same shade of grey afi her grey-blue eyes. It was still a little early logo down to dinnqr so she went up to the palm lounge where there was music. At that hour it was fairly deserted, since most people were dressing for dinner. She ordered a soft drink and while she waited she moved over to one of the huge windows that looked down over the sea. The sea was smooth and dark tonight with the moonlight cutting silver patterns into it The stars were brighter than she’d ever seen them and the semicircle of moon was gilded. She was standing there when a voice behind her said: “Hello! I’ve tracked you down at last, Carol.” Momentarily she had a sense not only of shock buC of complete unreality. It couldn’t be Ms voice and yet of course, it was. She turned slowly to face Jason Felton. His dark-red hair shone under ’ the electric light, his lean, attractive screwed up in a half- ; quizzical smile. Ak usual, he was unconventionally dressed in a woolen sports shirt and slacks. “What on earth are you doing Aeref” she gasped. “I’m here, anyway.” He added, his smile widening, “Though not in first class, aa you are, Carol. Since Uncle William kicked me out financially, Fve been rather on my uppers. I’m down under, in the tourist class. Incidentally, J think 1 prefer it You don’t have to dress up.” T _ ’ "But you didn’t tell me at the staff party you were going to America!’’ she exclaimed.

Melt then." He added, “But after that night 1 made the big decision." . She felt confused and, for some reason, oddly apprehensive. “Are you going over as a tourist or on. a job ?” she asked in the pause. “It has to be a Jtb, or some kind mend’s charity, to enable any Englishman to go to the States these days. 1 don’t like charity, so it’s a job. I’m going down to Florida to drive Julie Gallet’s car. In other words, I’m to be her chauffeur.” But that was incredible too—• that he should be Julie Gallet’s chauffeur. But why? If he wanted tp go to the States, couldn’t he have got* some better job? She knew there had been rumors linking his name with various of the assistants, but she had determinedly closed her ears to them. Had Juhe a name been linked with his? Vaguely it seemed to her it had been. The knowledge disturbed her. “But why should you work as a chauffeur?*’ she asked. “You don’t think I’ll make a good chauffeur?” His smile mockingly reproved her. “Remember I drove you home that night in the rain. There weren’t any bones broken, were there?” "You know 1 didn’t mean that.” She shook her head of short brown ■■ hair aa though she were still bewildered. '‘But I don’t see why you Should work as anyone’* chauffeur.” He stepped closer to her and his blue eyes smiled down into hers in an intimate but still faintly mocking way.\ Til let you in on a secret, Carol. When I’m down in Florida driving Julie Gallet’s car, I’ti be near you. That’s simple and fundamental, isn’t it?” His grin twisted shuttle. “Aren’t you hap*T might be happy, at least flattered, if *\believed you/’ Carol said. She was surprised that her voice sounded Calm. even casual. “But, Carol, you’re a pretty girl; Why shouldn’t I be foUowing you over, to the States?" He grinned down at her tn a knowing way, and added, “Someone else might «t: you over there. As a potential lover, I nave to look out for my interests." “If this is a line, I don’t think It ftiany,” she said coldly. N “But," his lean face sobered, “ikn’t’the fact I’ye taken a lob in Florida, that I’m even traveling toprjst class on the same ship as you are on, proof enough?” you comW have seen me in | London," she argued weakly, “We hadn’t seen each other for months until the night of the staff dance." i “But that was where I fell in love with you.

J Noticed much wiggling life for the young nature student to study. The best place to' study this life is aquarium. My aquarium Is getting some new Ufq these days. When starting an aquarium, one should fiiist consider whether it should be a glass sided one of any container with wood or metal sides, such as\ a half-barrel or bucket, A glass aqukrium is much better than anything else, because one can view the occupants better. A round fish bowl type is not the best, because thq water surface that touches the is smaller and animals must have oxygen from the air. A fish bowl distorts the things inside, making them look larger and out of shape, rectangular aquariums may be purchased at any pet store. A rectangular aquarium’s depth shouldn’t be much greater than its width. The average cost is aboutififty-cents to one dollar ppr gallon, making a five gallon container coat about $2.50 to $5. Keeping an acquarium is > very fascinating hobby. The water need never be changed if there is a proper balance between plants and animals. In an aquarium may be kept minnows, snails, small crayfish, insects, tadpoles leeches and many more. One handful of mud from a pond is filled with hundreds of different, kinds qf animals. I would recommend one gallon pf -yvater to one Inch of fish. Place a jplece of double-strength window glass with the sharp edges stoned, flat on top of the container to keep out the dust, lessen evaporation, and keep the animals from jumping out.\ This glass will not interfere with the aquarium’s animals breathing.

Million Persons Visit Mount Vernon Each Year

WASHINGTON UP—The Mount Vernon Lridles jAssociation ifc thinking up pretty ways to tell visitors to George Washington’s home why the shrine is not owned by the people. Each year Washington’s Mount Vernon is visited by about 1,000,000 > persons. The “ladies," as the association often is called, have been so modest that they have kept the story mostly under \a lid for a long time. But this being a sort of centennial, they dedided to come out in the-open. George Washington had been Head 54 years when the first steps toward preservation of the home were taken. One time the estate included about 8,000 acres. Then It was subdivided among heirs of *the first President. John Augustine Washington Jr., a grandnephew, owned title to the mansion.

government. ' Nothing happened. History tens us that along about this time Ann Pamela Cunningham of South Carolina, a red-haired semMpvalid, commenced a nationwide drive to save the home and what was left of the acreage—about 200 of them. She opened a campaign with a letter to the Charleston Mercury in December. 1853.
