Kaw-Pfan- Hay Fever Is No Longer Such a Mystery to Medical Science GOOD TASTE Skin Sensitization Test Can Now Find EMILY POST W Worlds PorvmMt Authority KACHOOO-00-00- gib be a haggichiff, quig! Hey, hey, old summer time and the hay fever sea- son is open. Why, oh, why, do I have to go through this every year? Is the wail of the hay fever sufferer, and well it might be for there Is hardly an affliction so relentless in its unwelcome annual visits. The answer to the victims cry Is Is allergic to something In the air, probably the pollen from a plant or weed. What particular plant It is determines whether Its pollen rides the air waves in May, June, July or September. Time used to be that hay fever victims, when they began to sneeze, their eyes started to water and their noses to sniffle, simply had to pack up, leave home and make for the North Woods or the resorts at Charlevoix and Mackinac Island in Michigan where the air is comparatively free ifrom dust and pollen. While this made an excellent excuse for a vacation it was a considerable expense and often a great Inconvenience. Fortunately today medical science has made such strides that hay fever can now be treated with a pretty fair degree of success right at home.' The big task is to find out what type of pollen is causing each Individual case. To do this doctors may have to be expert detectives, for many different individuals are allergic to different things. Results of Allergy. All of us are allergic to something or other, whether It be a certain type of food, the hair of a certain animal, feathers from pillows, some types of dust, or even smoke. But only about one person In ten is allergic to such a degree that he is uncomfortable. By allergic we mean, in a free sense, that we are unusually sensi-tiv-e tq something. A high degree of allergy to some of the things mentioned in the foregoing paragraph may result in any one or combination of a number of afflictions eczema, hives, "colds, hay fever, headache, diarrhea and other ailments. Hay fever symptoms spring from hives which occur in the nose, sinuses and eyes, causing sneezing and itching. If they were to occur in the lungs, causing spasmodic contraction of the bronchial tubes and coughing, they would produce asthma. When hay fever occurs the pollen to which the victim is allergic enter the nasal ducts, inflaming them; the poison passes to the throat and bronchial tubes, and finally to the ends of the bronchial tracts, where swelling occurs. The hay fever victim need not even be living in the neighborhood of the plants whose pollen are at the bottom of his grief. To follow a hypothetical case, let us say a patch of ragweeds was blossoming in a vacant lot of some city. A high wind came, spiriting away the seeds, lifting them up over the city and carrying them a hundred or even two hundred miles from the place they grew. At last as the wind dies they settle down, unhappily, right before an unfortunate soul who is allergic to ragweed pollen without ever having discovered it. ands He breathes them into his of them, for it would take 50,000 to cover the head of a pin.

Then the poison passes down through his and bronchial tubes and that hs nose-thous- Aerial surveys, conducted thounp, test the air for hay fever pollen. sands of fret occurs. His eyes redden, itches where he cant get scratch it and he begins constantly. Perhaps our friend thinks he hat a cold. But the doctor says, Hay fever," and tells him he had better find out what type of pollen is causing the trouble. The customary procedure is for the doctor to begin making skin sensitization tests. Little scratches are made on the arm, and Into each of these scratches one drop of pollen solution is placed; a different type of pollen it used on each scratch. The sufferer is allergic to the type of pollen placed in any acratch which reddens and swells. welling his nose at it to to sniffle C Emily Foot Sniffle, ! Well say our hypothetical victim Is allergic to ragweed pollen. His protests to the doctor that he has not been near any ragweed need not'eonfuse us, for we know how the pollen got to him. The doctor explains It to him, too. Now the doctor orders injections of the proper type of pollen vaccine Into the blood. Next year, now that the patients allergy is known, he will be given minute, but increasing doses of the Injection, starting in February and continuing for a few weeks until it is thought he should be immune when the season comes. It does not always work out that way, and sometimes dally injection! during the season Itself do not help. Different pollens do their dastardly work at different times of the year in different sections.

There is on record the case of a woman who was sensitive to that kind of smoke. Her husband smoked a pipe; when she played bridge at the home of friends who smoked cigarettes she would begin to sniffle and appear to have a cold.

She to at college far sway and goes horns frequently with the girls whoso homes are closer to the ochooL She sometimes mentions in her letters home that these girls parents are holiday, going to New York on and as we live in the environs of New York Im wondering whether it to expected that we extend some kind of hospitality to the parents at such times. Answer: Your real obligation is in encouraging her to invite these girls home with her when they have longer recesses or perhaps to let her ask them to coma between school terms when they can sta longer. But why don't you ask her whether she wants you to show particular hospitality to the parents she knows especially well, and what she suggests. She knows what type of people they are and whether they have friends in New York, or on the other hand, whether they are going as strangers or whether the mothers are likely to be alone while their husbands attend to business, or just what the individual situations are.

Is there s way I could remind him to write her, because his thoughtlessness certainly puta me In a baa light? Answer: I can think of nothing else to do except say to him, "I hate to ask you to write another one, but my sister-in-lanever got your letter. Then he will probably say, "What letter? and you answer, Why, didnt you write and say anything for that pleasant weekend we had? And that Is that!

When Suffering Begins. How severe a victim's symptoms are depends upon the amount of pollen that is filling the air he breathes as well as upon his susceptibility. The amount of pollen is likely to vary from day to day. It will be stirred up more, of course, when there is a good breeze, and it will tend to settle on a calm day. In some states at the height of the season it is not unusual to find 1,000 to 2,000 grains of pollen to the cubic yard of air. Pollen thins out in higher atmospheres, but aviators making scientific tests can find it a mile above the earth. It is when the air contains a pollen count of 29 to the cubic yard that the hay fever victim begins to suffer, so you can imagine his misery when the count reaches 2.000! According to medical scientists, you should not sit next to an open window on a train if you would avoid hay fever, although cars are all right, for the pollen is filtered from the air in them. Nasal sprays will protect the nose in some measure from attack, and a little white vaseline around the opening of the nostrils will keep some of the pollen from getting in. Victim will find themselves more comfortable In dark room where there are no drafts. Although ten persona in one hundred suffer to some degree because they are allergic, only one of these ten. on an average, has hay fever. Various allergy victims suffer in various ways.
