The Springdale news., 1909-10-15

MT President and Gentlemen: The subject is entirely too exten- sive to be discussed fully in one short paper such as would be per missible on an occasion like this. And passing by all preliminary re marks We will come at once to the subject
 First. we will consider the pre- vention of contagious diseases. There are so many of them that could be brought forward, and dis cussed profitably, that we will be compelled to pass by many of lesser importance, and only mention a few of the more important and common ones, such as measles, scarlet fev- er, roseola, chicken pox and whoop- ing cough.
 These are so nearly alike, so far as the necessary preventive measures are concerned, that they may all be considered together
 They are all communicated from one individual to another by con tagion-by contact with, or by in- hahng the air impregnated with an effluvia from some person effected with the disease This effluvia so impregnates the atmosphere of a room, that an unaffected person en- tering room where there is, or has recently been. another with the disease. is in imminent danger of contracting it.
 A sufficient amount of this efflu- via may emanate from one individ- ual to give the disease to a whole house full of people. It may also be carried long distances in cloth ing, mail books or other things which have been exposed to the con tagion
 Any person. even simpleton, if ne could be brought to understand the above facts. would at once know. that the way to prevent it's spread would be for the unaffected to stay away from the affected and let alone every thing which has been handled by them, or which has been exposed in any way to the eontagion. Also by those who have the disease, remaing indoors and keeping away from other people.
 Nto SNf f . is. eases Is, in almost every instance due to the reckless uneoncern of some person who has one of them, for the welfare of others.
 Many people who have one of these diseases. seem to think il smart to appear i'll public places, as church, pienes, etc, and scatter them far and wide And in doing So. they exhibit such reckless un- concern as to make their conduct shocking and criminal
 Your humble essayist has known some widespread epidemic to break out ill this way; and by persons, toe who knew they had the disease, or that they had been recently exposed and that they were just at the point of full developments when the disease was just breaking out and very contagious.
 have known such epidemic to prevail extensively, and be follow ed in some cases with consequences of the gravest character and some

Infectious Diseases

We come now to consider the in fectious diseases, and here, too, we can only mention few We will pass by many of considerable inn portanee and confine our remarks entirely to typhoid fever and tuber culosis
 Again We may say that their modes of dissemination are so near ly alike that they both may be considered together. They are both due to the intake of a living micro organism known as bae Hi This intake may be by ingestion or in halation We may eat them with our food. CT drink them in our wa ter. or inhale them in the air we breathe The question of their eontagiousness is still in many minds. a debatable one; but their infectious character has long ago been settled beyond peradyenture.
 This infection usually occurs, by

Treating Tuberculosis.

will now consider the prophy- laxis of tuberculosis
 Many of the same measures used in the prevention of typhoid fever. many be used here also to good ad- vantage In all cases the most scrupulous cleanliness of person and abode should be attended to Also the affected person should as far as possible abstain from the use of such household things as are of ne cessity used by others such as drinking vessels. eating utensils. wash basins, and towels. lie should have his own bed and bed clothing: vanced to require the attendance of another person, sleep in a room to himself and he should never sleep in the same bed with others.
 He should not use the same tof let used by others. but should ar range in some manner so that both lHt III HltSllHdi dHu ItHdl dlsHdTSto can either be destroyed or treated with some antiseptic that will des- troy the bacilli.
 However the most important thing in the prophylaxis of consumption is the control and destruction Of the sputum of the consumptNe
 It is the chief means by which the disease is disseminated There are not just a few of these death dealing bacilli in mouthful of it, but sometimes there are millions of them, and when spat around promis- cuously they exist as great dan ger to every enc around who IS in any way predisposed to the disease. whether by inheritance or by an in flamed or irrita q condition of the throat and uppe passages
 It is wel own fact that there are very ny people affiict- ed with eonsu ton that will not believe it. anf aost of them will become angry tt any intimation that such is the case and they therefore esanot be persuaded to use any precautions to prevent others becoming infected s a re-
The Springdale news., 1909-10-15

But, says one, this is too severe. If man knows that disease. great suffering. permanent injury. and death is liable to result, from any act of his and yet he will, for no reason other than his own desire, go and do the act, is he not guilty or in ease of death is he not guil- ty of murder9 cannot figure 1t out otherwise I believe he is, and should be punished accordingly.
 If the above suggestions were carried out epidemics of the conta- gious diseases would soon be all most, or quite, thing of the past.
 If We put few people, or even one, in any community, in jail or the penitentiary, for thus wicked ly exposing other people, others for miles around will stand up and take notice.
 Again, let the physician. when he is called into home where there is one or more cases of any of these diseases if he has not authority to properly quarantine, let him. at least as far as possible. isolate the patient from other members of the family. and instruct those who have charge how to manage so as to sub ject the other members to as lit tie exposure as possible

Order the diet for the patient of certain kind. and quantity, and at definite intervals. Write all this down very plainly, read it over to them, fully explain ing every point and emphasize the fact that every item is important and must be carried out to the letter Order everything as if you were clothed with all authority in these matters; for if you only give yer bal directions in casual manner. no attention will be paid to great deal of it. and most of it will be forgotten before your next visit
 Another matter in the prevention of typhoid fever. concerning which the people need instructions, is the location and making of their wells.
 Most people think they can strike water easier by digging in a low place or in d draw, and if such q place can be found between the house and barn the well is almost invariably located there so that the water for the house and also for the stock may both be had from the same well. They are often locat- ed so that surface water from the stock lot will drain directly into them as well as more or less wash from the yard In many instances there is not even a dirt embankment to turn the surface water away.
 i do not=knoW anything which could do more to remedy this evil. than instruction from the doctor He should as far as= possible teach them that this is very dangerous and the cause Of majority Of the cases of typhoid fever occurring in the country He should also teach them, that whenever a we'll may be dug to get water for family use it should be walled with brick and cement down to the hard pan or stone. or for several feet down II no stone or hard pan exists. And a large embankment of dirt should be thrown up around the curbing at least one foot higher around the curbing than elsewhere and extend- ing 15 feet in all directions,
 This will form pretty effeetual barrier to the drainage of surface water into the well.

deaths One person will have as a result, an acute nephritis. tacute brights disease1 and die, or his life be greatly jeopardized Anoth- CT will have an acute inflammation of the middle ear, which is very painful, and may give rise to a meningitis which will certainly des- troy the life of the patient, or a partial deafness more or less per manent will ensHe. And there are many other results of these dis eases, which endanger or destroy life, or entail afflietions which fol- low the poor mortal through his entire life.
 Well, one says, how can this be prevented?
 It perhaps can not be entirely pre- vented, like the liquor traffic, can not be entirely prohibited; but if proper efforts were put forth by physicians and humanitarians in gen eral very much could be done to- wards their prevention.
 Let physicians educate the peo- pie along this line, and insist upon them observing proper care for the welfare of others. In addition let the profession urge our legislature to pass stringent laws for the spec ,,1 sty1 h aeters as We have just described. Let a person who thus knowingly sows the seed of suffering. injury and death be held responsible for the results
 If as a result of his course, my child contracts one of these dis eases and either dies, or, is by it damaged let me by law collect damage from him as in other cases hold him=fo manslaught as in other cases when death results from reeklessness or eriminally careless conduct en the part of others.
 Also let the law provide that the physician shall have authority to declare quarintine which will pre- vent people from going out or in. and provide pretty severe penalties for people who disregard his or ders.
 Also require the officers of the law to come to his assistance if needed in the enforcement of the law and prescribe nothing less than a jail sentence for the physician who is too careless or weak kneed to do his duty especially if it can be shown that an epidemic has re- suited from his carelesness or cOWardice
