cLEyELAND's CONSUMPTION.
The White Plague There, and the Battle
They Are Waging Against 1t.

The city of Cleveland has solved the
problem Of caring for its tubercular poor
az well asperhaps better than any
city in the United States. The climate
Of the Forest city is not productive
Of favorable conditions for the cure OF
consumption, as the damp winds blow
in from the lake and the atmosphere is
often heavy with moisture; yet, with
these odds against it, Cleveland il wag-
ing successful battle against the dread
nalady which for the last four years
has been grieyously affecting the poor
Of the city. The visiting nurses re-
ported that patients could not be prop
erly cared for at their homes. Some
thing had To be DONE and about three
years ago, as an experiment, the old
smallpox detention hospital was opened
as tuberculosis sanatorium. its sue
cess is shown by the number OF men
and women who entered its door on
stretchers and came out fully restored
To health.
The patients are required to spend
four hours each day in bed on the vi
randas, absolutely at rest. This rule
is rigidly enforced, Irrespective Of the
weather conditions. ln case of rain or
snow the beds are covered with mack
intoshes. The treatment is simple, but
exacting When a patient arrives he 10
bathed and put to bed Then follows
thorough examination by the physi-
clans, and from that day until he is
cured or passes out of this life, the
progress of the disease is recorded. Warm
clothing is provided, also a long flannel
gown and slippers for sleeping out Of
doors. Heated soapstones are placed In
each bed, and every precaution is taken
to make the patient comfortable. Warm
dressing rooms are provided. Sputum
cups are always used, and these, as
well as the gllaze handkerchiefs, are col
lected three times day and burned
The bedding is changed twice week
and oftener II necessary Eggs and
milks form the chief diet. although ono
hundred and sixty-fve pounds OF beef
and four bushels Of potatoes are used
each day. Three full meals are served
and milk Is given every hour during
the day and as often throughout the
night as the patient asks for nourish-
rnent Eggs are taken as pleases the
taste, raw, with lemon, milk or vine
Codliver oil is also used, and cocoa is
served during the rest hours. Patients
are never rebellious, and are usually pro-
fuse in their thanks to the nurses for
what Is done.
The whole atmosphere of the place is
pleasant, and there is no gloom any
where.--Ieslia's Weekly.
