Points Regarding Smallpox.

To the Editor Indianapolis Journal:
The card Of your occasional hydropethic
writer. A. s. Kingsley, in Wednesdays
Journal, extolling the virtues of water in
the treatment of smallpox, even to the state
ment that it is absolutely curative of that
and other diseases. and advising Hoosiers
not to get frightened at the threatened in
vasion of the scourge, is all very we'll in it's
way. The proofs quoted by him from the
medical profession as to the ease of control
of smallpox by the proper medical treat
ment are certainly very reassuripg, and
would seem to be well borne out by our
State Board of Health's annual reports,
those of $780, 1889 and 1888 reporting 60
deaths Jherefrom, 1887 having two and 1856
one. AS Mr.. Kingsley gets his information
from the doctors. ii is difficult to see how
he can inform the doctors very originally
or intelligeDtly and "a for enlightening
the public. that is of little avail. as the
public itself has decreed that all cases of
smallpox must be Nv hoped out TO the pest
house" tnstanter. where they become
dead to the world for time.
MIR. Kingsley seems to overlook
the one important point In regard
to smallpox which makes that disease a
veritable bette nolre (which, the same. Is
the French for eyesore) In tho estimation
of the public. aud W ich puts it's victim in
the position of the seesick one, who, az
first, was afraid he was going TO die, and
later on was afraid he was not going TO.
The dread of smallpox is not because of its
fatality. for that is really low. but because
of it's loathesome, ropnlsive and disfiR curing
character. One who he's smallpox Is to be
pltied. and generally is pitted on recov.
cry. If Mr.. Kingsley. now. had told us 80
simple a way to "out the damned spots" es
to oure the disease he would be all the more
worthy OF the title public benefactor

YES. because the testimony of Davis will
