THE UNION PRESS-COURIER,
“YOUR HEALTH”
“Yes I had a touch of ptomaine poi-
soning.”
How often is this remark heard.
Yet it is doubtful if there is such a
substnce as a ptomaine,
A ptomaine is described as an al-
kaloid fromed by the action of put-
refactive bacteria on nitrogenous mat-
ter.
In other words, it is supposed to be:
a poison arising from dead or putre-
factive material.
Many authorities insist that the so-
calied ptomaine poisoning cases are
acute digestive upsets caused, almost
always, by living bacteria.
Food poisoning is usually due to
contamination of food by certain bac-
teria or bacterial toxins.
Food may cause illness either be-
cause it contains living bacteria, which
—after entering the human system
grow in the intestine or blood and pro-
duce poisons.
Butolism is one of the most active
of these food poisonings.
It is most often found in home pre-
served vegetables or home-canned
fruits served as salad.
Butolism is caused by spore-bearing,
gas- forming bacillus, or germ, which
is found in the soil.
When a housewife puts up certain
vegetables, such as string beans, corn,
spinach, olives, asparagus, beets or ap-
ricots, this germ may be on the pro-
duct and may not be killed by the
heat of the canning process.
Commercial canners have discovered
how to kill this germ.
Prevention of butolism in home-
canned vegetables and fruits may be
secured by boiling all home-preserved
foods for at least six minutes just be-
fcre serving.
If the can shows evidence of leak-
age around the rubber ring, or the
food appears spoiled or contains gas
bubbles, or has a cheesy or rancid
smell — it is better to destroy the
contents than eat them.
Countless chickens on farms have
died from “limber - neck” because
spoiled canned food was thrown into
the yard.
Be safe — and boil all home-pre-
served foods for six minutes before
serving.

—
lives for good or ill. The way we live|
vitally affects the lives of our associa- |
tes, our friends and neighbors. |
Booker T. Washington one said that
we cannot keep a man in the gutter
without getting into the gutter with!
him. Ana I think it was George Wash-
ington who said that “we had better
hang together, or we will all hang
separately.”
Id’t like, therefore, to suggest a fur-
ther consideration of the motto we are
discussing. Write it down this way:
“Let live, and live.” This means that it
is only as we let the other felow live
that we ourselves shall live. It's a
matter of self-preservation. If the other
fellow goes down, we”ll go down with
him.
| But we can’t stop here. There 1s
| still to much selfishness in this ex-
| pression of our interest in the other
| fellow, if we are to accept it as our
life's motto. There's another Serip-
| ture verse which should be considered
[in our discussion. It is the principle
laid down by Jesus. This great Teacher
| once declared: “He that saveth his life
shall lose it, and he that loseth his
| ie for my sake —” and that means
| for the sake of others — shall find ijt.”
| One could write the history of all hu-
| man progress around this declaration.
| Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt recently
| said: “I will do more than live and let
[ live’; T will ‘live and help live.” That’s
| the idea practically stated. It is the
| whole philosophy of being a Good
{ Neighbor.
