Frequent
Headaches
“I suffered with chronic
constipation that would bring on
very severe headaches,” says
Mrs. Stephen H. Kincer, of
R. F. D. 1, Cripple Creek, Va.
“I tried different medicines and
did not get relief. The head
aches became very frequent. 1
heard of
, Thedford’s
BLACK-DRAUGHT
and took it for a headache, and
the relief was very quick, and
it was so long before I had
another headache. Now I just
keep the Black-Draught, and
don’t let myself get in that
condition.”
Thedford’s Black- Draught
{purely vegetable) has been
found to relieve constipation,
and by stimulating the action of
the liver, when it is torpid, helps
to drive many poisons out of
your system. Biliousness,
indigestion, headache, and
similar troubles are often
relieved in this way. It is the
natural way. Be natural! Try
Black-Draught.

SCHOOLS SOON TO OPEN
Are Your Children Ready?
The season for the opening of oui
public schools is fast approaching, and
It Is well that we see after the children
not alone getting their clothes ready
and their books in shape, but above
all, seeing that they are physically
ready. Have you had them vaccinated
against small-pox? Do so at once ii
you have not attended to this. Every
child should be successfully vaocinated
before reaching school age; if this has
not been attended to, do so NOW.
The season for Typhoid Fever is
here. Some of the old medical books
called typhoid autumnal fever from the
fact that it is more general in the
late summer and early fall. See, there
fore, about the sanitary condition oi
the school house as well as your home
especially the drinking water and the
privies. Asa precautionary measure
have the children vaccinated with the
free typhoid vaccine of your State
Board of Health.
Did you ever think how many chi!
dren have that awful and fatal disease
Diphtheria, just after school opens'
That is the time you will find Diph
theria killing the children. Just as
soon as school opens the call comes
to your State Board of Health foi
Diphtheria antitoxin; forty-five died
of this disease last year. Had you con
sidered having your child immunized
against this disease? Use toxin-anti
toxin and prevent Diphtheria; it will
do it; your physician can tell you aboul
it. He can tell by making a test il
your child will contract Diphtheria
and if found susceptible he can by
the use of the toxin-antitoxin prevent
it. Don’t you think that is wonderful?
It is. As sensible parents why not take
advantage of the wonderful discoveries
of your physicians who are studying
preventive medicine for you and yours.
Your State Board of Health furnishes
this test free.
Do not neglect the teeth; now is the
time to have them put in shape for
the winter. What is more painful than
toothache? What is a greater loss
than a tooth? It pays to take care ol
them; it pays big.
Then what about the tonsils and ade
noids? Have you had your child’s
throat examined, or was it done at
school and you were told about it and
did not have the diseased parts re
moved? Do it now. Many diseases
far removed from tlie throat are caused
by diseased tonsils; the adenoids alsc
cause mouth breaking and deformity ol
the face. Many diseases follow in
the wake of these conditions, not
counting the distress of illness all
through the school term, so be sure to
have the tonsils and adenoids taken
out; do it now:
Have you ever had your child exam
ined for intestinal parasites? So many
children have worms and are in con
sequence under nourished, have bad
complications, are not good sleepers
and are susceptible to disease owing
to being in poor physical condition.
Your State Board of Health will be
so glad to make an examination of
the bowel discharge for you and tell
you if your child is wormy and what
kind of worm is inhabiting the bowels.
Write them for container and instruc
tions how to take the specimen. It
is done free; do it now.
We would also in closing ask about
the child’s eyes; are they normal or
do they need correcting? Have they
been examined? If so, have you done
what was advised? Do it now.
Write your State Board of Health
about any matter of sanitation, disease
prevention or health matters.
THE FOLLY OF DELAY
WILL COST MANY LIVES.
Regardless of the high death rate
from Typhoid Fever in Georgia last
year many people are even yet un
protected, so far as vaccination is con
cerned.
All physicians of the State and the
various health officers have been
urged to use their influence in get
ting as many people inoculated as
posable. The press has had much to
say about the importance of not run
ning an unnecessary risk so far as
developing Typhoid Fever is concern
ed, yet only a small percentage of the
people of the state have so far this
year taken advantage of this preven
tive treatment.
Such procrastination on the part of
the people who know of the protec
tive value of such inoculations is very
foolish indeed. “Hard times” cannot
be regarded as an excuse since the
State Board of Health furnishes the
vaccine to any citizen of the state
.FREE.
Last year the typhoid death rate in
Georgia was about eight times as high
as for the 57 largest cities of the
country, and epidemics are being re-
various sections of the state.
One should by no means take such
a hazardous risk as many are now do
ing.
BE VACCINATED TODAY. If your
physician hasn't a supply of vaccine
the State Board of Health will be glad
to furnish him all he can use as long
as the present supply lasts.
A warning is given by the State
Board of Health about the use of the
common bathing suit —the for rent
kind.
If you go in swimming you should
own your own bathing suit. If you
rent your suit it shouid be thoroughly
sterilized before you wear it..
Public opinion should see to it that
all for rent suits are properly handled
Our State should have laws regular
ing public swimming pools.

SUMMER JMMPLAINT
During the year 1921, 7,554 babies
died in Georgia during their firsl
year; a large number of those chil
dren died of gastro-intestinal condi
tions are usually called “stomach up
sets” or “summer complaint,” "teeth
ing," generally meaning that the baby
has diarrhoea or dysentery. The baby
may die of this or his strength may
be so undermined that he will die
later from even the mildest attack oi
whooping cough, measles, etc. Moth
ers very frequently think that all
babies must have "summer complaint”
or "teething,’’ that a baby is hardly
normal it he does not have at least
one attack during the summer. "Sum
mer complaint’’ is not a normal condi
tion—it should not be lightly set aside.
It may result in severe illness and
very frequently, as thousands of death
certificates show every year, it may
prove fatal.
If the baby becomes nauseous, vom
its, gets feverish and has diarrhoea, do
not think he is teething, nor that bis
condition may be neglected. A baby
with diarrhoea, especially diarrhoea
accompanied by nausea, vomiting and
fever, is a sick baby and needs the
doctor; do not delay calling him; if
you cannot get one at once, stop all
food for twenty-four hours or even
longer. Give him in place of food,
water that has been boiled and cooled,
a little at a time, but very often. Give
the baby crushed ice in small amounts
by mouth. A twenty-minute tub bath
with gentle rubbing given one or
more times a day, will be very com
forting and may save the baby from
having convulsions. Put an ice cap,
iced clothse or cloths wrung out in
cold water on his head, but if his feet
are cold put a hot water bottle or
hot cloths to the feet. But above all
things, have the best physician in
your community see the baby.
JOHNNIE, KEEP YOUR SHOES ON.
The great Incidence of hookworm
among children In certain parts of
Georgia is partly due to a custom
which perhaps no amount of discour
agement will banißh, namely: going
barefooted.
Dr. W. M. Brady writes "Health
Talks” for a number of newspapers.
One entitled “Johnnie, Get Your Shoes
Off” recently appeared in the Atlanta
Constitution. He begins like this:
“This is the season of the year
when parents have so much to fear
if naught to be afraid of; when kids
delight to bathe each day, though not
in tubs we beg to say, if real stuff
they are made of. Breathes there a
man with soul so dead who never
to his son hath said, ‘Boy, whatcha
wearing shoes for?’ The barefoot boy
with cheeks of tan will make a darn
sight finer man if footwear he’s no
use for.
“There are occasions and places
when it may be unwise or improper
to go barefoot. There are regions in
the southern states where the soil or
ground is polluted with hookworm
eggs and larvae, due to the primitive
habits of the natives, and in such
regions it is dengerous for anyone
to go barefoot, itch’ or 'ground
itch’ or ‘dew itch’ (the primary stage
of hookworm infestation) is likely tc
be the price.”
In places where hookworm infec
tion does not exist, it is of course ol
great benefit to the health of all chil
dren, boys or girls, to go barefoot. Bui
the danger of hookworm disease in
barefoot children far exceeds these
benefits. Of course, if it were pos
sible throughout our rural sections tc
make proper disposal of sewage, then
hookworm infection would gradually
die out. Until this is done, every in
fected child will spread the Infection
to his barefooted mates, and each ol
these in turn will spread it to other
barefooted children.
Mothers, if you want your children
to enjoy privilege of going bare
footed, see to it that the homes in
your community are provided with
proper sewage disposal facilities, or
if this cannot be done it will be neces
sary to make your children wear
shoes all summer long. As certain as
barefooted children wade around in
damp places, ground itch will develop
between their toes, and every case ol
ground itch means hookworm.
Hookworm infection means Btunted
mental and physical growth. Write
to your State Board of Health for in
formation about hookworm infection,
its prevention and cure.

b. Additional federal money to the
extent of $19,530.55 if the State putt
up a like amount.
Georgia is now operating under this
law, but at the time thi3 is written
tho Assembly has not made an appro
priation. It is hoped that they will
do so
Georgia statistics for 1921 show 56*
maternal deaths (largely preventable)
7,554 death of children In the first
year (2,902 of these being stillbirths)
The majority of these deaths and
thousands more are preventable
What are you, dear reader, doing tc
prevent it? Each individual has a
part; united action can and must cut
down this awful death rate. Save
mothers and children!
