It is called hay fever, because the most common form comes in the early fall, during the haying season. Just how the Idea originated that it had any connection with hay is hard to see. Probably because people working in the hay fields were found to be espe cially subject to it. This Is not due to the hay but to the fact that many weeds, growing among the hay, be come ripe andnthrow off their pollen about haying time. These weeds, cut down with the hay and dried, are raked up and handled in haying, so that thq air In which th£ haymaker works is full of dried pollen. The small, sharp-pointed seeds, drawn Into the uose In breathing, are extremely Irri tating and cause the well-known symp toms of constant sneezing, congestion and obstruction of the nose, then watery Irritating discharge. It was long ago noticed that these attacks happened at other times than the early fall. The so-called “rose -J ir U attacks may occur almost any time in the year . So it Is not only the pollen of weedd at haying time which may cause tills condition, but any Ir ritating substance in the air at any time. . ■ —si. I have seen typical hay fever attacks in the middle of the winter, due to breathing street sweepings blown about by the stray winds of January or February. I have also seen attacks brought, on by breathing formalin oi formaldehyde. Hay fever may be due to the pollen- laden air from the hay fields, but it may also be due to many other causes. The principal cause is the Individual. A dozen people will breathe the same air under the same condltlonsr'only. one or two will show any discomfort. Those who do will be found to have two peculiarities: some obstruction In their nose and a nasal mucous mem brane that Is unusually sensitive:;—So long as there is no lrrita\ing sub stance in the air. they are all right. But If the air is filled with pollen of rag weed, golden rod. wild oats, Ber muda grass, sage brush or any of the many Irritating seefls. immediately the sonsitive victims begin to sneeze and weep. We^have learned much about this miserable uljment in late years and now know that It is caused b\ many kinds of dust, instead of only ny hay need us we formerly believed—— iC> Newspaper Ualeay •\ ' ' / Silk Scarfs 0ii=jr=JF=ir=Jr=Jr=Ji=Jr=Jr=Jr=ip=Jf=Jp=-=Ir=jp=lr=ir=ir=Ji=ir=ir=ir=J =ir=Jr=ii=ir=ir=ii 1 I Q E 0 0 a a a a a Si aj a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a a I si a a a a lil a All Colors S3.75 CLINTON, S.
