IS 1885, saALLpox ANY MORE
Or Has Generation Of Vaccination Stamped
out the Disease Eniireiy7

In view of the recent smallpox scare
in Walhnllaand other portions OF Oconee,
tho yiews of a physician in regard to the
disease and as to vaccination may prove
Of interest. Wehear daily the remark
that IL what people have now Is small
pox, then what they had about the time
Of the war and before, was something
else, for it was very fatal. Speaking of
this fact induced physician recently to
talk shop for while to % small crowd
of listeners.
Smallpox he said, sis not to-day the
Fatal disease that twas years agoS-if, In
deed, there Is now such thing as
smallpox--beoause it has gone through
Q generation of vaccination. Vaccination
does not give absolute immunity from the
disease, OF course, but when q person who
has been successfully yacoinated takes
tho disease it Is mild form and seldom
results fatally. This practice of vaccine
ting against smallpox has now been in
vogue for SO many years that the disease
hold on the people, and when it does ap-
pear it shows up, not as the old time, vir-
ulent smallpox, but rather in the lighter
form known as vairoloid.
There is great deal said by some
against vaccination, but 1t is good thing.
For instances: 1t has taken years of vac
cinating to bring smallpox from the class
of fatal diseases into GLASS Compare
lively mild in effect. Would not a disre-
gard of the practice of vacoinating leave
the people unprotectedP 1t is not sup
posed that the effect of vaccination lasts
a lifetime, and those who have taken
this prec8ution, as well as the Younger
generation, IL the.practice were abolished
or disregarded, would be, to greater de-
gree, subject to the disease; and it is
quite probable that without vaccination,
1t would gain in prevalence and viru-
lence much faster than it has lost in the
past in consequence of the precautions
used against it. Keep on vaccinating
whenever there Is an appearance of the
disease, and in time it may be lost
sight of entirely"
In this same connection we are re-
minded of another conversation. Mr.. j.
l.. McCarley, of Townville, was in town
last week, and in inquiring as to the sit
uation in regard to smallpox in Walhalla,
he remarked that just after the war,
near Fair Play, in this county, smallpox
became epidemic and quite number of
deaths resulted. In no case, however,
was there death where the patient had
been vaccinated, and on none of the pa.
tients were marks left. He is great be-
liever in vaccination, and bases his be-
lief on experience and observation. He
believes, however, that the good effects
OF vaccination last much longer than
seven years, the time most generally
claimed for it.
The cases reported in Walhalla are all
either well or conyalescing, and there is
scarcely possibility of its spreading.
Every precaution has been taken and
will be maintained.

Many families own several hundred

airy, and an encyclopaedia; that these
are the most important books in the
