News from

Pharmacist

Hoard
Every home medicine
chest should contain several
basic items for use in
treatment of minor wounds
and abrasions. Avery
essential item is a bottle of
alcohol. This is used to
disinfect the wound and
should be used after a
puncture or abrasion has
been thoroughly cleaned with
the use of sterile cotton and
soap.
A box of sterilized cotton is
another basic item for the
medicine cabinet. In addition
to its use in cleaning wounds,
cotton may also be used as a
compress to halt or slow
bleeding. Cotton swabs are
another necessary item.
These swabs can be used for
cleaning small wounds and
for application of antiseptics.
This brings us to another
“must” item for home first
aid. There are any number of
commercial antiseptics a
vailable, including lodine,
Merthiolate, and Mercuro
chrome.
Of course, various sizes of
sterile bandaids and bandag
es should be kept on hand, so
that all sizes of wounds can
be covered, if necessary.
Our pharmacy carries a
complete selection of these
and all other first aid items to
supply the medicine chest at
home and the kit in your cab
for use in case of accident.
We can serve your complete
pharmaceutical needs.

Tested Tips To Help You
Check Up On Your
Refrigerator's Temperature
There are two things you
should check to be sure your
refrigerator is performing as
well as it should.
Is your refrigerator main
taining proper temperatures?
5- ——
If the milk is very cold,
then the refrigerator section
should be about right. If the
ice cream is good and firm,
the freezer’s set about right.
But don’t check just one
spot; move the milk and ice
cream around and see if the
same degree is consistent in
other areas of your refriger
ator or freezer. Whirlpool
home economists advise that
the refrigerator section
should be no warmer than
40°F., and the freezer per
forms best at O°F.
By maintaining these
proper temperatures, foods
can keen better and longer.
Most refrigerators have ad
justable coldness settings, so
if you find that your refriger
ator is not as cold as you’d
like, check your owner’s
manual about how to make it
colder. y
Pleading Ignorance
A man charged with theft
showed up in court without
an attorney. “Do you want
me to assign you an attor
ney?’’ the judge asked.
“No.” replied the defendant.
“If it’s alright with you, I'd
like to throw myself upon the
ignorance of the court.”
