Can it be cured?"--An Ohio reader. A. Trench mouth (Vincent's angina) is an infection of the mouth and throat due to a spiral germ which is often associated with a spindle-shaped organism. There is usually pain on swallowing, gland enlargement, and a yellowish-grey membrane in the mouth and throat. Saliva flows freely and the breath has a bad odor. The condition can be cleared up by good dental care and drugs used or prescribed by the physician or dentist. Q. "Are chemicals used to color fruits? If so, is the coloring matter harmful?"--'A Canadian reader. A. Certain food products are artificially colored. However, the government permits use of only those dyes that are "certified" as harmless. Q. "What is meant by dehydration? What are the symptoms and dangers?"---No name. Answers do not necessarily reflect the opinion of all doctors. The diagno and treatment of disease is the function of the patient's personal phvsiciaW Questions directed to Dr. J. D. Ralston, Science Editors, P.O. Box 396, Madison Square Station, N. Y, 10, IS. Y. will be incorporated in these columns when possible. A. Dehydration means drying out. Water is present in all body tissues, accounting for more than half our body weight. Body water is lost through the skin, lungs, bowels and kidneys. Much water can be lost through vomiting. When water-loss is not balanced by water-intake we become dehydrated. Symptoms of dehydra^ tion include weakness and a sen4 sation of extreme parching of the mouth and throat. The dehydrated person often becomes very thirsty. However, these symptoms are usually modified by the illness which brought on the dehydration. The danger, of course, is the interference with normal body function caused by the deficiency of body fluids and the chemicals they contain. C** DRUG STORE GREEN ST. McHENRY, ILL.
