DR.. GOTO ONCE
MORE: IN HONOLULU

DR.. Gdto the talented japanese
physician who lived in Honolulu sew
eral years ago, and who treated the
lepers AT Molokai Is visiting again in
the city, having arrived on the Nip
pom Maru en- route to Yokohama. DR.
Goto achieved considerable prominence
here by introducing among lepers the
use of hot baths modified with some
vegetable matter, adding for the pa
tient "A vegetable pill. The treatment
was also accompanied by an infusion
If vegetable medicine.
These baths were first tried at the
Kalihi receiving station and then at
the settlement where they became
quite popular among the lepers. espe-
cially the natives. While the Board OF
Health did not believe that the treat
ment was beneficial. yet the popularity
OF the hot bath and its accompaniment
had a moral effect upon the lepers to
such an extent that they felt they were
being helped. The board allowed the
use Of DR.. Goto's remedies until re-
Gently, when they were discontinued,
owing to the expense attached.
The japanese physician Is not con-
sidered TO be man of modern scient fic
education. but one who uses the arts
of the physicians OF the old school of
Japan to a large extent. His father
before him was a physician, and used
the same remedies on lepers. He was
an old fashioned doctor with a purely
japanese style of treatment.
