practically six meals are eaten In a
day. Each man is required to dispose
Of not less than three quarts of milk and
six raw eggs. Many of them consume
four quarts OF milk and ten to dozen
eggs At 7.30 o'clock the patients eat a
breakfast of cereals, raw eggs, milk and
coffee. At 10 there is a lunch of milk
and eggs. AT 1890 a bountiful dinner
is served, consisting of soup meats or
fowl, three vegetables, salad and a
dessert of milk pudding. Milk and eggs
are served again at O'Clock and at 6 a
supper of cold meats, potatoes, fruit and
milk. The last meal, at o'clock, is of
eggs and milk. Eggs are never cooked.
The effects of this tremendous
consumption of food are seen in the
changes wrought in the patients. In
August there was an average gain of
twelve and one-quarter pounds per man.
The record case for the month was
nineteen and one-half pounds. Several
patients have gained six and one-half
pounds week
"Since the sanitarium was opened, on
August 5, some of the men have made
remarkable improvement. Two were
so nearly cured that they left the place
to return to work. All of the work
about the hospital is done by the
patients so that IL Is practically self
supporting.
The patients to man are contented
and cheerful. They are ready, even
eager, to perform all tasks that are ask
ed of them.
"The legislature of Pennsylvania has
voted funds to enlarge the sanitarium,
which is free and supported by a society
in Philadelphia.

Smallpox in Plymouth.

Two more cases of smallpox have
been discovered in Plymouth, the vic
tins being Benjamin Walton and his
little daughter. The former has given
the local authorities a great deal of
trouble, he refusing to 90 to the deten-
ton house adjoining the emergency
hospital when it was discovered that his
stepson, Van Loon, has contracted the
disease upward of two weeks ago His
refusal on that occasion was the cause
of more or less expense to the borough
because it had to provide a watchman
to prevent his going out and mingling
with the people.
The authorities, as soon as it was dis
covered that Walton were his daughter,
were afflicted with the complaint, hustl-
ed them to the emergency hospital des-
pite their protests and the health officers
thorougly tumigated the premises where
they resided. There are at present
eight persons in the house of detention
and three cases of smallpox and one of
varioloid in the hospital.

SAN|TAR|UM
A SUCCESS.
Sketch Of Americas First
consumptive Hospital.
Seventeen Patients in the
Unique Institution Near
White Haven Are Rapidly
Regaining Their Health.

"High in a spur of the Blue Ridge
mountains at White Haven, Pa, is a
colony of constfnptives, says the New
York Journal. Living in the open air
and furnished with nutritive food, sew
enteen patients Of the Free Hospital for
Poor Consumptives are recovering
health and strength.
"The sanitarium is an old and tumble
the cracks and sweeps over the beds OF
invalids, who have no protection save
that they are warmly wrapped. The
stronger ones spend their days out of
doors. They take their meals in an ad-
jacent cottage whose windows cannot
be closed. Yet they all improved from
the time of their admission. The spon-
sors and supporters of the enterprise
say they will be cured.
''This mode of treatment represents
the modern idea of the rational cure of
tuberculosis. Pure blood, it is said, is
natural germicide and the most effective
ono. Given, then, system ridden with
bacilli, the disease is combatted by the
creation Of rich circulation. An alb
normal supply Of food, high in nutri-
tion, is administered, accompanied by
proper tenics to meet the effects Of the
unusual work upon the digestive organs.
Fresh, unbreathed air, which oxidizes
the circulation, is natures important
contribution to the process of healing.
SAT present the sanitarium has pos
sible accommodations for fifty patients.
Steps have been taken looking toward
the erection of hospital which will
have capacity of 200.
"The White Haven Sanitarium has
an ideal location on plateau on the
side OF bluff at the southern end of
the Pocono mountains. Tne knoll rises
abruptly to a height of 300 feet above
the town. From it magnificent
panorama, with the Lehigh river in the
foreground, is beheld. The site is l, 400
feet above sea level. A feature which
is considered to be of the most import
ance is the soil. This is soft, red shale,
so porous that dampness is reduced to
the minimum. The altitude is such
that no smoke or dust reaches the
patients. The peak Of the mountain
affords protection from north winds.
The colony is conducted by dis
cipline that is military in its strictness
The patients arise at and retire at 0.
They are not allowed to leave the estate
Exercise is assigned to them aud such
work as their condition will warrant.
Expectoration Is forbidden and violation
of this rule is punished by instant eXpul-
sion.
