Louisiana) PROTECT BABIES FROM WHOOPING COUGH There are few sights more pathetic than a young child gasping for breath during an attack of whooping cough. Only a short time ago I was called to a home where a nine months old ho was sick with the disease. His fits of cough ing, followed by the long in-drawn “whoops,’* left the little fellow completely exhausted and thoroughly frightened his mother. She had spent a 3!ccp!ess night watching over him and trying to relieve ids suffering. The baby had caught the dlceace from his older brother who had just started school. The older boy had a mild at tack and the mother did no! realise Low sick whooping cough sometimes makes children, particularly very young children. She did not know that whooping cough is catch ing, so when the older children had the disease she made no effort to keep him away from his baby brother. When the baby first became ill, she thought he had only a cold. Then when the coughing became worse, the “whooping” began and the child seemed in danger of suf focating, she became alarmed and sent for me. Most children have whooping cough by the time they reach school age. Sometimes they have a light case which ] RELIABLE R A DIO f SALES & SERVICE j F 2907 Q Street if RECORDS, if NEEDLES J if PHONO-COMBINATIONS (SERVICE IN HOMES IF POSSIBLE ) -It--- - - -— ■■ ir=~-- "■ !l=- ir=.

Sometimes they have a bed at tack which make^hem very ill and which may threaten their future health. Because whooping cough is such a common disease am ong children, parents often take it too lightly. They do not realize how sick a child can become from it, nor do they realize that whooping cough may be followed by bronchial pneumonia or other illnesses, ii the child does not receive proper care. W hooping cough is apt to be especially hard on babies from six months to one year of age. Mothers should take every precaution to keep babies from catching the disease which, as I have said, they get from someone who has whoop ing cough. Sometimes doctors recommend a vaccine to protect the child from catching whooping cough. In the beginning, whooping cough resembles a cold. It starts with a running nose, a slight fewer and a dry cough. While a cold normally runs its course and is over in about 10 days, with whooping cough, the cough becomes worse instead of better and may beeome convlusive. At the end of a week or 10 days, the “whoop,” a deep in-breathe, be gins. By this time, of course, it is obvious that the child has whooping cough and not just a cold. The disease usually runs for three or four weeks. Some times the coughing spells bring on vomiting and the chiM has difficulty retaining food and loses weight. Whether the attack is mild or not, the young patient should receive careful attention. A doctor should be con suited as soon as whooping cough is suspected. The sick child should be kept in bed and other children should not be permitted to go near him, There should be fresh air in his room at all times. The doctor will advise on what med icine will bring relief to the child and what should be done to guard against other illnesses. The Waiter’s Column By H. W.
