Show NEW EFFECTIVE HAY FEVER RELIEF Hay fever, which annually causes more sneezes, more inflamed in-flamed noses and more red, 1 streaming eyes than any other scourge, may have its final big fling this September, all because a Pennsylvania electrical engineer was served a dish of corn meal mush which was entirely too salty. The engineer, sneezing, and with all other hay fever manifestations, mani-festations, stopped at a hotel where he was served a dish of mush which he considered send- ing back as it was much too salty. Finally he ate it, however; the hay fever attack lessened, ultimately ul-timately ceased. Next day he had three meals, all oversalted, and experienced his most comfortable time in years in the "hay fever season." His analytical mind quickly grasped the possibility that the saline substance in his food was responsible for his relief. About this time, Dr. E. E. Sel-leck, Sel-leck, a graduate of Columbia University, Uni-versity, met the engineer, made notes, and when he returned to his home, began experiments. Today To-day Dr. Selleck declares he has found a certain means of relief for hay fever and is supported in his contention by other medical experts, and a nationally known chemical manufacturing concern, the Hollings-Smith -Company, at Orangeburg, New York, has taken tak-en over making the remedy, which is called Nakamo Bell. Describing the experiments, Dr. Selleck said, "After I was sure I had found a means of quickly relieving hay fever through the chloride group, I tested it in the most practical way I knew. I held a three day clinic, to which many hay fever sufferers responded, from ages ranging from 10 to 60 years. Each person was given two tablets with a little water. Some relief came to all within ten minutes. Reports on these cases during the ensuing ensu-ing weeks showed practically a complete cessation of symptoms." Adv. |
