was first advised by our family phys
stefan in Charleston to use TEETHINA
with our baby when she was but very
young infant as preventive Of collie
and to warm and sweeten the stomach.
Later it was useful in teething troubles.
and its effect has been found to be SO
very beneficial and so free from the dan.
gers that are consequent npon the use of
drugs and soothing syrups, that we have
come to regard it, after use with three
children, as one Of the necessities when
there is new baby in the house and un-
til the teetbing troubles are over, and we
take pleasure in recommending it to our
friends instead of the horrid stuff that
so many people use to keep their baby
quiet. HARTwELL NJ. AVER.

INADEQUATE HOSPITAL FACILITIES.

Sir: The recent small epidemic OF smallpox again
calls attention the grossly inadequate facili
ties which the great city Of New-York has for the
treatment of contagious diseases One general
hospital for the treatment of all contagious dis
eases, on North Brother Island; two hospitals for
the treatment Of scarlet fever and diphtheria only
and one general reception hospital for the tenn
porary treatment of this class of disorders think
cover the list
Now. let what is likely TO happen in the
great and wealthy city of New-York If patient
whether rich or poor. is stricken with, let say
ment house and is a child. The law requires that
Such a case shall be reported to the Board OF
Health at once The law also says that this child
must be removed TO the Reception Hospital and
be treated by strange physician, by an alopathic
physician regardless of the preference Of his par
without either home comforts or even up TO date
hospital facilities. Can anything be outra-
geous than this in a civilized community
In opinion. all this should be changed. and
can be changed in a perfectly practical manner
Let the city Of New-YOrk build a hospital called
the New-York Hospital for the Treatment OF Con-
tagtous Diseases; let this hospital be located
Manhattan Island, near the river. somewhat
Bellevue IS located erect a separate building for
the treatment Of each contagious disease think
that each building should have large free wards
and others more elaborate and. necessarily. more
expensive Then I would allow any practising
patient in this hospital and 70 treat him person

would allow one person % enter the hospital with
