PELLAGRA CURED

Il have been particularly interested In
a recent case of acute pellagra which

TRANSMISSION of blood said a prominent
member of the Jefferson County Medical
society.
THE case was that of a lady who had
contracted the disease while in run
down condition and her blood naturally
became greatly impoverished. Her broth
err was an exceptionally healthy man
and he agreed to supply the blood for
the operation An artery In his arm
was attached to a vein In the woman $

to give the patient a new start She
began to improve at once and her recov-

ing new or unique about blood transfus-
ion, but Its success in this particular
disease was peculiarly gratified.'
1t is now generally known that the
chief trouble in pellagra is the accom-
panying impoyerishment of the blood
and this cure by TRANSMISSION was natu-
rally of great interest to me. One of
the mistaken Ideas about pellagra is that
the disease is contracted only by the
very poor and those In squalid surround

is weakened or rundown by exceptional

HOOKWORM CASES
FULL OF INTEREST

When approached last night with the
question of what case had interested him
most during the last year. prominent
practiciAg physician of South Highlands
gave out the following interview:
Hook worm cases which l come in
contact with in my everyday practice
have been affordng a great deal of in
terest to me of late. we have now come
to the stage where we realize that hook
worm Is no longer a myth, but an ex-
listing, cunning, death-dealing malady
l"Some time ago a case which was of
more interest than usual, on account OF
The plainness of the existing disease,
came under my attention. The patient
was a boy who came to me from a small
neighboring village not far from Birming-
ham The boy was is years old but
looked no larger than 10-year-old boy.
He was poor In iesh with a sallow skin.
Had no vitality and was supposed to be
suffering from weak and bad blood,
which really was the case, except that
the weak blood was due to hook worms.
IT gave the boy few doses of thymol
and epson salts and in two weeks a
difference could be noted In his COM
plexion. his vitality increased, he took on
flesh and, In spite of his dwarfed stature
al the age of IS years, he grew into a
healthy manhood and was of good stat
ure. He is living today, as healthy as
any man ! ever saw.
Hook worm is one of the most
stealthy. sneaking diseases known to
mankind 1t has been known to extermi-
nate whole families and yet it can be
cured at nominal cost of rs cents. All
that is needed is a dose Of thymol, which
kills the worms, and then EPSON salts
to remove them from the body. The
whole treatment is cheap and simple, and
can be compounded by any druggist

history of bleeding from the nose and
gums, almost daily for month. The
patient was worn, distressed, amaze

ne cared not Whether ne lived or died.
He was scarcely able to raise his head
from his pillow and altogether presented
indeed a sad physical picture.
1.-THE prescribed dosage of horse serum
was given the patient by a needle. The
effect was marvellous. On the day fol-
lowing the injection the usual hemorr-
hage did not materialize. and for fifteen
days thereafter there was absolutely no
loss of blood? On the 18th day, there
was a slight nose-bleed, so the horse

that | see a happy couple struggle and
fail before the onslaught of a disease
which In its early stages is easily cured.
Such a case was that of young man
who brought his wife from Mississippi
some time ago. She was beautiful, he
vas successful, and their lives were as
full of hope and sunshine as a summer
day. I was interested in the case with
another Birmingham physician.
THE patient was suffering from an af-
lection of the mammary glands, which
had been neglected just too long. Upon
operating II was found that the auxiliary
glands had also become involved. The
diagnosis proved the presence of cancer
and the entire removal of all the glands
was necessary, including even the adjoin-
ing glands.
she returned home, but was soon
brought back, and the trouble was found
to have spread to the cervical glands in
the neck These glands were removed,
and the patient became so weak that
TRANSMISSION was absolutely necessary.
Then | saw the couple, which a few
months before had reached the climax
of their joy, fighting grim death The
husband was three times the donor OF
his lifeblood for his mate, and begged
that all his blood be given to his loved
one, If necessary.
Having given his love, his blood and
his prayers, the poor husband, weak
ened almost to a fever himself could do
no more and the young life passed out.
IT wish this true story might be a
lesson to every woman who has even the
slightest glandular trouble of this sort,
that she may be examined by capable
physician, to get the best advice, and fol-
low 1t specifically. 1t should be regard
ed serious in every case, for when the
affection spreads there is practically no

BODY CUT IN TWO;
LIVED FOR OVER HOUR

"The most interesting and remarkable
case that has come to my notice, not only
last year, bat during my entire profess
sional career said DR.. ]. E. Robbins
of the Cunningham hospital staff at
Ensley, was that of Robert Patton,
white man about 80 years of age. who
lived for nearly an hour and half after
his body had been completely severed
above the hips, the result of railroad
accident Mr.. Patton was a carpenter
employed at the steel mill, and while
crossing the tracks in the yard received
the injuries resulting in his death.
He was knocked down by the rear
end of an engine and was rolled over and
over on the track for about 20 or 80 yards,
and when. finally his body was severed
his hips and legs were carried 20 feet
further than his trunk.
when his fellow worlmen went to
his assistance, despite the awful nature of
his injuries. he raised himself on his
hands and looked around. The two parts
were placed in en- ambulance which was
rushed to the hospital When we re-
ceived him he was alive with mind and
brain active | saw at once that nothing
on earth could be done for him except to
sooth his few last moments.
He asked me If | thought he would
live an hour. I informed him his life
was measured by minutes. At his request
Miss Lena Hoehn, one of the nurses, tele
phoned for the Rev j. w. Orr. at that
time pastor of the Ensley Presbyterian
church, who came and gave him spiritual
consolation. He calmly set his affairs in
order and made all arrangements for Its
funeral before the end came.
THAT he lived at all after the accident
was due to the fact that in being rolled
under the cruel wheels his arteries and
blood vessels were twisted and mashed
closing them and stopping the flow of
blood. Had he been cut, as with knife,
death would have been instantaneous, as
the life blood would have rushed out as
through a sieve.
II have talked to many physicians
about this case, and 1t stands. so far as
I can learn without a parallel in the an
nails of medical science. There was no
hemorrhage, so completely were the ar
teries closed, death resulting from shock
THE nature of his injuries gave him a
lease on life Ions enough to make his
peace with his Maker and to put his
earthly affairs in order. This remarka BILE
case was witnessed by 80 Cor 40 res-
sons. among them being the Rev Orr
Mrs r. NJ. Cunningham, Miss Hoehn and

his comrades at the mill and a number of
other persons who talked to the unfor-
tunate but brave fellow while he still was
alive"

PHANTOM TUMOR WAS
CAUSE OF TROUBLE

1.-THE most interesting case that ever
came under my observation was one that
involves a peculiar psychological fea-
ture,' said a well known physician, with
offices in the Brown-Marx building yes
terday.
"A woman of middle age was brought
to a hospital for treatment for abdominal
tumor. The tumor had been developing
for some time, and at the time the pa
t'ent came to the hospital 1t had de-
veloped to rather serious proportions.
After careful examination by some
of Che best specialists In the country, 1t
was decided to operate There was no
question of the presence of tumor. But
the moment the patient got under the
effects of ether the abdomen returned to
its normal proportions and there was alb
solutely no indications OF tumor.
THE woman was brought from under
the effects of the anaesthetic and imme-
diateiy the phantom tumor' reappeared.
Every device for correcting Ills of the
mind were resorted to, but without eff
feet.
1.-The woman was again put under the
influence of ether A long incision was
made across the abdomen, just through
the outer skin, and then sewed up just
as il a full operation had been per-
formed. When the patient was brought
to she felt that real operation had
been made-and the tumor did not reap
pear"

any other disease in my house than a

Il have had many cases of tubercu-
losis under nv attention during the past
year, and through personal experience
/ am able to testify that tuberculosis can
be cured right here in the Birmingham
district as we'll as In the west. There
are three cardinal conditions that must
exist to effect cure. They are-fresh
air. diet and rest. in the order of their
Importance.
II have been greatly interested in the
movement to establish tuberculosis hos
initial on Red mountain. The movement is
A great one, and If given the proper sup
port is sure of success. The cost is nom-
inal. only $25 per tent. and the money
expended would he amply repaid in dol
lars and cents by the benefit to the coun-
ty and city in restoring the people to a
condition where they can work The
classes of people that are being reached
or would be reached by this movement
are the poorer classes. Aside from the
humanitarian view of the question there
is the practical side. BY putting these
people on the mountain you cure them
and remove them from the crowded
streets where they are continually giving
the disease to others. believe that
the newspapers should take hand in
tho movement and stir the people up.
