services and. although for the past
two months he has been compelled to
snend much OF his time elsewhere on
other work, he has put a vast amount
OF time and labor on the Virginia cX-

Through his efforts, the display has
been added to by railways and coal and
timber corporations In this State, so
as TO make Il more complete and COM
prehensive.

The task mas been long one, and
All least month of solid work remains.

In addition TO timber and minerals
there is quite n good collection of stuff

be properly installed and marked. The

DIP HIT HERIA HAS
lost TSH0RR0RS.
Science Has Once Dreaded
Malady Completely Under
Control.
SANITATION A NECESSITY
With Proper Care and Treat
ment, Infection Will Dis
appear from State.

From a survey of the situation in the
November issue of the Virginia Health
Bulletin. Just Issued by the State
Health Department, the conclusion is
reached that 'diphtheria to-day and
diphtheria twenty years ago are vastly
different. The dread disease OF child
hood has lost many of It's horrors: its
mortality Is much reduced; 1t Will no
longer be menace II the medical pro-
fession and the people of the State
Will profit by the proved and tested
experience of science.
Diagnosis, antltoxin and Isolation"
continues the bulletin, are the three
great elements in the conquest Of the
disease. If {. diagnosis DC promptly
and correctly made, IL antitoxSn be ad-
ministered, IL isolation be enforced, un-
til the gerais disappear from tho
throat, diphtheria In time Will disap-
pear and mankind will be the happier.
Information Published.
The November bulletin is published
for free distribution on application. 1t
is intended primarily for physicians,
and contains not only a general trea-
tlse on the subject of diphther~, but
In addition the rules and regulations
OF the State Board of Health on the
handling Of the disease, and besides
directions for its treatment, with fun
informa tion regarding the sale of anti
toxin by the department..
However. emphasis is placed upon
the fact that far better than all treat
ment for the cure of diphtheria Ia
the enforcement OF sanitary regula-
tons which VIII make its spread i'm
possible. Experience in Virginia and
ir. other States has convinced the de-
rartment shat diphtheria is spread in
one of four ways:
First, by contact with a person sur
fcring from the disease; second, by
contact with some person who has been
exposed to the disease but who has
not developed,it; third. by contact with
some article which has been in touch
or in proximity to person suffering
from the disease; fourth, by drinking
: or eating something infected with the
germs.
Unseen Infection.
Sometimes those suffering from diph-
iberia show small signs. or no signs at
all, of the presence of the disease
These. as well as those who have the
trouble In a severe form. may readily
communicate the germs to another per-
SOP in half 4 hundred ways.
In the sam. manner. dangerous and
battling epIdemics have been traced
4 to third persons who have been in con.
tact with cases of the disease, but who
did not themselves have the maIady.
One of the most mysterious Of all cpl
denies. that which attacked the New
York Infant Asylum in 1897, was trace
to nurse who had been in attendance
on case of dophtheria without the
asylum, and who, not having the dis.

Perhaps a. many epidemics. however.

tact 1t is easy tic see how garments

any article handler by a person sur
fering from the disease may carry the
germs and may lead to further out
break OF dipththeria.
It is likewise true that foodstufrs,
aud especially milk and water. II care.
lessly handled. may carry the germs
of diphtherid and may be the means
of spreading the disease all over o
community. To prevent. the State
Health Department urges that great
care be exercised ir handling all foods,
especially milk, when there is dipth-
iberia in the neighborhood. and no
food should be used which does not
come from. a known and sanitary
source
As TO Prevention.
The methods by which diphtheria Is
spread, suggest the factors in the me-
thod by which this spread may be pre-
vented. In ali these precautions. /,
must be remembered that the admins.
tration of hnl,toxin in any case does
not render r.iat case less dangerous tc
others.
Experience has shown that there ars
four factors in preventing the spread Of
diphtheria. all of which have to BIZ
considered. These are:
l. The prompt and accurate diagno.
sis of all cases and the immediate use
Of antitoxin.
/ 2. The prompt report of every case
to the local health officer.
| g. The rigid isolation of every case
even the miidest, and the partial quar-.
antine of evcry infected family.
/ The maintenance of isolation anc
