THE ADMINISTRATION OF COD LIVER OIL
CLOSING OF THE FONTANEL
their fontanel* closed at the age of six or seven month*. This is probably
month (even in the breast fed babies) as a preventive of rickets. The head
of vitamin A (the growth vitamin and th* one that seem* to have to do
with th* integrity of the mucous membranes) and the vitamin D (which has
to do with th* prevention and cur* of rickets).
Thoa* who have been getting an insufficient amount of th* vitamin A
ar* prone to have certain eye inflammations, and are more susceptible to
tuberculosis of the lungs. Cod liver oil, with its vitamin* A and D, has to
do with the calcium (lime) metabolism or chemistry of the body, and this
oil, in conjunction with correct diet and sunshine, is not only a preventive
for rickets in childhood, but a cure. As a preventive, it is now being advis-
ed for all babies, beginning as early as the second month, nursing as well;
aa artificially fed babies.
Life is too swift, too important, too fine for the Mr. Ill-Winds. (Unfor-t
tunately, there is a little of the Mr. Ill-Wind in most of usl)
Mrs. W — Until recently our observation of babies has shown that the
fontanel closed around the eighth or ninth month. It is now believed that
Some children do not object to the taste of cod liver oil, but to most it
is a very nauseating substance. And the question* a* to how doe* one dis-
gtdM the annoying taste, what to do when the child refuses to take it, and]
what to do when the oil seem* to upset the digestion, are frequently asked.
Dr. Henry Gerstenberger, in the January 22 issue of the A. M. A. Journal,
answer* these question* a* follows:
“To all these questions but one answer ha* been given, namely: cod liver
oil should be given once daily on an empty stomach and when most of the
family members are likely to be at home. In other words, the cod liver
oil should be given in whatever dose thought necessary before breakfast. IL
under these circumstances the child vomit* it* first dose, a second should
be immediately administered. If any vomiting occurs at all very little cod
liver oil is lost, and at any rate, the ‘mess’ is very much less annoying than,
it is when cod liver is vomited ju*t after the child or infant has taken a
tmeal.
Elbert Hubbard once wrote a wonderful little piece entitled: “Get in line
or else get out I”
If you can’t boost, then, for goodness sake, dbn’t knock. It’s a big world.
There are plenty of places that fit the frame of any man or woman. Go to
th* one that suit* your taste and revel in it.
“As it is also a good policy to see that an antiscorbutic substance is ad
ministered daily, a email amount of orange juice, if desirable, may be taken
immediately after the cod liver oil has been swallowed. The parents, how-
ever, is advised not to offer th* orange juice aa a reward er aa a ’chase',’ but
to get the child to understand in the first place that cod liver oil is essential
to hi* welfare, and in the second place that he will get accustomed to its
taste within a week or ten day*.
“I have frequently advised parent* to take cod liver oil at the breakfast
table as an example to their children and for their own benefit If a child
has been poorly trained, this method of having the.parent take the cod liver
oil without making any remarks or face* before the child is required to ingest
thi* wholesome material is of great educational value.”
(We have an article on Rickets which can be obtained by sending * fully
self-addressed, stamped envelope with request).
This gentleman (pardon the appellation) lives in every community. In
his own estimation he is the one important member of the community.
You find him most anywhere.
He works something like this: At the ball game. Pardon me. young
man, don’t you know that there is a great waste of time and energy in the
game of baseball? You see, it’s like this-” Just then the stand where he
speaks falls, and no mor* is heard of him. The game proceeds.
At the aviation field. “By the way, young fellow, do you realise that
every time you get into your machine, you tempt the Grim Reaper? Think;
of the fine young men that have been killed at this business, who might have
ti^tf.,1 workers at—" Just then a storm comes up and Mr Ill-Wind,
scampers foe a <ky shelter.
At th* golf ground ‘‘I can’t see what you men see tn thia game of golf.
It’s all very well, 1 suppose, for boy* or old women, but for big Mv* meur—’’
Just then there i* the cry of "Forel" and our speaker get* bit in the eye. t
And so you meet Mr. Ill-Wind everywhere, throwing cold water upon
wholesomeness and enterprise, pulling down instead of building up—whin-
ing, findit* fault, and offering advice that is aa substantial as th* soap bub-
ble. 1
