THE SANlTARlUM
TREATMENT OF iNclP.
lent TUBERCULOSIS.
Read Before The Las Vegas Medical
Society, April 10, 1905.

In discussing the subject assigned
me this evening, | wish to ask you to
consider, First: The Sanitarium.
After forming a picture OF the ideal
institution we can then estimate any
advantages 1t offers to the incipient
t%ubercular subject. Like all other
created things we have sanatoria Of
the good, bad and Indifferent sort,
simply because the individuals Great
ing them are human and institutions
created by them express the motives
and principles which actuate the Gre
ators thereof.
A Sanitarium should combine In the
greatest possible degree the features
of the home, hospital and hotel, since
the most satisfactory and beneficent
results to the invalid seeking its
shelter and aid can only be obtained
when all conditions are conducive to
his recovery. For. 1t is a manifest fact
that the environment of every invalid
plays a most important role in the re-
moval of his disability and, in very
many instances Is a determining fac
tor.
Modern living tends more and more
towards scientific study Of the art Of
living and in no direction is the re-
suit made SO thoroughly and positive.
ly successful as in the conduct of a
first class hotel. 1t is not necessary
that the hosiery should be gigantic
in size, but it must be perfect in its
appointments and administration. AL
low me to quote from a recent article:
las hotels now play so important a
part in our national economy Is 1t not
worth while to spend a little time and
thought, as well as sense and science,
in their construction, establishment
and conduct? One drop of comfort
outweighs all 'gorgeousness of public
rooms and state apartments, yet when
one may encounter all that Is pleasing
to the eye and at tho same time rest
full to the mind it may be said that
the perfection of inn-keeping has been
attained. The Injuries Of hotel life
are good food and perfe1 service.
Everything about n modern, first-class
hotel seems moved by hidden, noise
less springs and from the moment. of
arrival until departure, each guest has
an idea his comfort is l. spontaneous
affair" Such attributes, assuring per
feet comfort to each inmate should be
found in 4 Sanitarium. Then, too. In

LIST. As to the Sanitation: think
you will agree with me this IL a point
OF the utmost Importance. The pos.
sibility OF Infection and re~.infection
should by all means be removed, ana
yet ! maintain this Is almost an i'm.
possibility except IN q we'll regulated

him to protect his patient from tho
dangers Of infection because of his
not having full control Of the envir.
onment Of his case. At a Sanitarium
all such danger Is removed and It Is .
we'll recognized fact that In q section
frequented by the tubercular subject.
the greater safety lies within rather
than without the institution.
End. The control of the patient:
Here again the advantage Is most pos.
itively in favor of the institution.
Few persons when Ill have any ade.
quate knowledge as to what Is neces-
sary or desirable tor them, and while
the attending physician labors to In
form and intelligently direct them. he
sees SO little Of them, knows SO little
OF their movements during intervals
between his visits. and has SO little
power to enforce his directions, that
his patient as a rule pursues a go
as.you.please" gait with every little
advantage derived from the advice OF
the giyer and with much discourage
ment to the physician. On the other
hand the institution has established
rules and these can be enforced
Furthermore, the patient can be much
more rapidly and thoroughly educated
as to his proper care and become OF
the greatest assistance to the physi-
clan in the work Of his restoration.
3rd. N~ourishment: 1t needs little
argument or illustration to set forth
the advantages the institution pos
sesses in this particular over the or
binary hotel or boarding house. or
in fact, the well ordered private home.
Where the selection and preparation
OF food Is made a careful study, where
it's immediate effects are under oh
servation and any III effect from error
is speedily detected and overcome, as
should be the cas- In every institution.
it must be admitted at once that the
patient Is far more safely and advan-
~tageonsly placed. Today we know
that mal.nutrition is the underlying
cause of the vast majority OF cases OF

q cigar of monstrous and alarming ap-
pearance, which every one smokes

writes V. c. Scott O'Connor in his
book. 1.-THE Silken East" 1T consists
of chopped wood, tobacco, molasses
and various herbs wrapped in the sill
yer white skin of a bamboo. So wide
in diameter is it that it completely
fills up the mouth of any young damsel
who tries to smoke it. For presentation
purposes this long cherOot is often
wrapped at one end in coat of purple
or gold paper. 1t accumulates for
midable mass of fire at the lighted end
and requires some skill in the smok-
ing. But the Burman infant acquires
this skill before he can walk and
while he is still at the breast No one
thinks of smoking such cigar
through. Two or three long puffs, the
lips of the smoker thrust out to meet
the circle of the cigar, and it is put

cool WEATHER DELAYS CROPS.
Planting and Growth Retarded by
Low Temperatures.


The weekly summary of crop condl-
lions issued by the weather bureau IS as
follows:
In nearly all districts east or the
Rocky Mountains the week ending Aprll
"a averaged decidedly cool, and was un-
favorable for termination and growth,
damaging frosts occurring as far south
as the northern portions of the east gulf
States on the 18th. Rains interrupted
work in northern Indiana, while drought
is becoming serious in central and east
ern Missouri, and rain is needed in Mon
tana and the Dakotas.
Rather slow progress with corn plant
ing was made, except in Missouri ana
Kansas, where this work advanced sat
isfactorily. Preparations for planting
have been actively carried on in Me-
braska, Iowa and Illinois, but no plant
ing has been done in these States, except
in southern Illinois, and further east none
has been planted northward OF the ONO
river with the exception OF little III
Ohio. The cool weather has proved in
furious to corn in the South, much hav-
ing been killed in the South Atlantic
and East Gulf States by the frost of the
18th.
While the growth of winter wheat has
not been rapid, owing to the absence OF
warmth the condition of this crop con-
tinues promising in all districts.
Spring wheat seeding is now we'll ad-
vanced in the northern portion of the
spring wheat region and is practically
finished in the central and southern por-
tons. termination and growth of early
sown have been very slow, and some in
jury has resulted from freezing in South
Dakota and Nebraska. In Colorado, Utah
and on the North Pacific States spring
wheat is coming up and growing nicely.
Oats also need warm weather to pro-
mote growth, which has been generally
slow, but on the whole the outlook for
this crop is favorable. Some damage by
freezing is reported from South Dakota
and Nebraska. Seeding is well advanc-
ed in the more northerly sections, except
in the northern portion of the middle At
lantic States and in New England, where
slow progress has been made.
Cotton planting has been active, under
favorable conditions, over most of the
cotton belt, but was delayed by rains in
Oklahoma and Indian territories, Arkan-
sas and northern Texas. The frost of
the 18th killed much cotton in portions of
Alabama, Georgia and the Carolinas.
Chopping has begun in southern Texas
and portions of the eastern districts and
cultivation in southern Georgia.
Fruit prospects have been further less
ened during the past week throughout
the Ohio valley, east gulf States and on
the Atlantic coast south of New Eng
land, peaches suffering most. In the
States of the upper Missouri valley and
in the lake region and New England the
fruit outlook is more promising

by the proposal. Now, as they talked
the matter over, it appeared that he
stood midway between these two, having
neither the eager enthusiasm of Jack
Melville nor the utter hopelessness of his
friend Winterbourne.

it, said he coolly. at can't do much
harm. If Yolande is to know, she may

have been tried, and failed; this might
not. The shock might bring her to her
senses. Anyhow, don't you see, if you
once tell Yolande all about it, l rather
fancy she will be dissatisfied until she
has made a trial"
"And who would undertake to tell
her?' her father said. "Who could face
the suffering, shame, you would see in
her eyes? Who would dare to suggest to
her that she, so tenderly cared for all
her life, should go away and encounter
these horrors?'
eff it comes to that" said Melville,
II will do it. If you think it right--if
it will give you pain to speak to her
let me speak to her."
"You? said her father. "Why should
you undertake what cannot be but a
dreadful task? Why should you have
to bear that?'
"Oh," said he, 'my share in the com
mon trouble would be slight. Besides,
have not many friends; and when one
has the chance of lending a hand, don't
you understand, it is kind of gratiica-
ton. l know it will not be pleasant
except for one thing. I am looking for
ward to her answer; and [ know what
it will be. I am quite at your service,
either ON Tuesday or any other day,
whenever you let me know what you
have decided"
He would not go on to the house with
them. despite all their solicitations; on
the other hand, he begged them not to
say to Yolande that they had seen him.
So they went on their way down to the
little lodge, while he went back and over
the hills.
Hes a fine fellow that, and no mis-
take" said the plain spoken John Short
lands. "There is sort of broad human
nature about him. And 1 should think,
Winterbourne, you were very much oblig-
ed to him."
"Obliged?' said Yolande's father. "It
is scarcely the word"

it appears in the movement to secure to

Helping Employees to Succeed.

The modern American department.
store employer is at his wits end to
devise new methors to help the en-
ploye to succeed. In the smaller cities
and towns, the public has little knowl-
edge of the free medical attendance
and drug stores the employer has es-
tablished for the oyerworked and
poor young women and men; of the ex-
ceedingly cheap and wholesome food
served to employees; of the relief bene-
fit associations; Of the sayings-bank
features; or of the airy and comforta-
BILE retiring, resting and reading rooms.
The food furnished to the employees is
provided at an expense to the employ
err, not a profit. These departments Of
help are what we term dead depart
ments. BY that is meant that they
bring the employer no income.
l should really hesitate to say exact
ly what these things cost the depart
ment-store employer.
SO far as help of this kind is con.
cerned, the end is not yet in sight. The
employer realizes that to help the en-
ploye is to help himself. 1t would not
surprise me. in the near future, to see
all employees of the great department
stores stockholders in the business Of
their employers. The proft-sharing
plan is as yet new and untried thing.

THE END OF THE GRIP

Disorder, PaIpitation of Heart and
Debility Overcome at Last.
Mr.. Newman certainly had a very
tough time with the grip, and it is no
wonder that he thinks that the remedy
that cured him can't be beat. His case
shows how profoundly grip poisons the
system and how obstinately it resists all
ordinary efforts to eradicate it.
Few cases can be worse than Mr. New
man s for he had head, heart and stom-
ach troubles combined with great weak
ness. He recently said
"The attack of grip which had eight
years ago left me in very bad fix.
became nearly deaf and my head ached
continually and was filled with kissing
and roaring sounds. My heart futtered
and had regular running-away spells.
My stomach was SO sore that could
hardly bear touch on that part Of my
body. l had great deal of pain in the
region of my liver and the doctor said
that organ was enlarged. My kidneys
ached SO at times that could hardly
stand"
Didn't you give up and go to bed?"
he was asked
No, simply wouldn't. My head
and my back ached dreadfully, but
obstinately dragged myself about, kept
growing worse and finally ran down to
almost nothing"
What did you do to get relief?"
First tried doctor, but he did me
no good. Then took all kinds of adj
vertised preparations but nothing proved
helpful until I began to use DIR. Williams
Pink Pills. AS soon as I got them I
knew that had at last hit the right
remedy for my case. The very first box
did more for me than anything else
lad ever taken. They gave me relief
right away and in three months they
positively cured me-. I think I was
scarcely ever in better health in my life
than am at present."
