FINDS A CURE FOR cHoLERA7
French Physicians In TunIs Are Now
Using Injections Of 6acllII
to Stop the Plague.

The Paris Matin says that the
physicians at the Pasteur institute
at Tunis have achieved success with
the new prophylactic method of
treating Asiatic cholera. Briefly it
consists of injection of the commas
bacilli found in the intertines of
cholera patients. 1t is said that the
blood thereby becomes extremely
rich and renders persons immune
from the contagion. Three physi-
clans, Nicolle, Coner and Conseil, ex-
perimented on themselves and also
swallowed the bacilli. DR.. Reux, in
reporting the matter to the academy
of sciences said that even if the eff
cacy of the experiments were not
proved they were interesting and de-
served to be followed up.

GOOD WORK OF WOMEN.

Although women have only been
admitted to the school boards of
Wurttemberg for the last two years,
and the women teachers have only
exercised the school suffrage for the
same length of time, they have al
ready improved the school conditions
of that kingdom very considerably.
1t was through their efforts that spe-
cial housekeeping schools were
opened for girls, while the raising of
the school age and the compulsory
attendance at the evening schools till
the age of eighteen years was reached
may also be accredited to their pres
ence ON the board.

THE DIFFERENCE.

Senator Dixon, during the squab-
BILE about convention seats for
Colonel Roosevelt's friends, told a
reporter that there was a startling
difference in the way the committee
treated one side and the other.
"It is as startling, as ludicrously
startling" he said, "as the difference
between farmer and an agricultur-
list.
GA farmer, you know, chews plug
tobacco and whites a stick, while an
agriculturist-"
He paused, then said impress
sively:

HER GREETINGS FROM TAFT
Small Girl Gets the Message, With a
pueklna by Imaginative
Brother.

When President Taft spoke in
Ridgewood, N. j., one Of the inter-
ested listeners was Foster Sanford,
Jr., the ten-year-old son Of the Yale
football coach. Fosters smaller sis
ter, Mandy, wanted to go, but she
was told she was too young. She
forgot her disappointment, however,
when her brother returned and told
her that the president had sent her
his love. Taking advantage of his
Importance, the boy has been steadily
adding to the message from the pres
ident ever since.
A few days ago, shortly after
Mandy had been carefully dressed
for the evening, she went down into
the yard where her brother was
sprinkling the lawn with the garden
hose.
''Mandy." said the boy, ''the pres
ident told me to tell your fortune"
ibid hep was Mandy's quick re-
ply, with her eyes as big as saucers.

long you were going to get wet"
She did not have long to wait.
Running into the house with her
new hair ribbon and what had been
fluffy skirts dripping water, she
screamed:

him to do it."-New York Evening

Don't Be Over Confident.

From all parts of the country
come reports of the overwhelming
sentiment of Wilson and Marshall
and supreme confidence of their
election. That there are solid
grounds for this confidence cannot
be denied, but it is hoped that it
will not relapse into apathy. Elec-
tions cannot be won unless every
man does his duty and the sacred
fight is usually the winning fight.
Confidence is a good thing, but do
not let it cause you to relax any
effort to make Democratic success
doubly sure.

and People of Kentucky.
The unusual prevalence of diph-
liberia in many sections of the
State makes it the duty of this
Board to again call attention to
the best known methods of pre-
venting the occurrence and spread
of this disease.
l Diphtheria is both conta-
! gious and infectious. and is dis
tinctly preventable disease, being
easily limited to the first case or
cases. When it gets aways from
the primary cases and makes its
escape upon the community some
body is to blame. The sooner we
accept this as a sanitary maxim
the sooner we shall begin to do
our duties as individuals and COM
munities.
2 On account of its frequency
and fatality this disease is of far
more Importance to the people of
Kentucky than smallpox, yellow
fever or cholera.
3 When child has sore throat,
and especially if diphtheria is in
the neighborhood, it should be
separated from other children
until competent physician has
seen it. and decided whether or
not it is affected with a contagious
disease.
4 If diphtheria, strictly isolate
the case at once, in an up stairs
room if possible, and as discon-
nected as practicable from the liv-
ing and sleeping apartments of
other children. No one except
the physician and nurse should
enter the room. and they should
take every precaution not to carry
the infection to others.
5 The Board urges the hypo-
dermatic use of a standard anti
toxin, such as Alexander's, in at
least 5,000-unit doses, as soon as
the disease is recognized or seri-
ously suspected. and that this
dose should be repeated or doubled
within twelve hours unless marked
Improvement has taken place. If
case is seen after the first twenty
four hours use from Z to $500
units the first dose, depending
upon severity. 1t recommends that
minimizing doses of 1000 units be
used for all children, and especially
for all inexperienced relatives act
ing as nurses who have been seri-
ousiy exposed.
6 Placard the house, and keep
all other children, all having the
care of children, and all who 90
where children are, away from it.
Notify the health officer of the
town or county within twenty -four
hours, as the law requires. and he
will cooperate with the physician
and family to keep the disease
from spreading.
Z The discharges from the
mouth and nose, which especially
contain the germs of the disease,
should be received on soft cloths
and burned, and other discharges
should be disinfected, and all re-
fuse from the sick room burned.
All utensils used in feeding the
sick should be washed separately
from other dishes, and should re-
main some time in boiling water.
s Disinfect all bed and body
The Mt. Sterling advocate. (Mt. Sterling, Ky.) 1890-current, 1912-10-09

clothing, and other like things, as
soon as removed, by immersion
for at least six hours in a solution
of chloride of lime, four ounces to
the gallon OF water. They may
then rung out and put in the
wash. Remember, however, that
mo- disinfectant in the occupied
sick room can do away with the
necessity for abundant fresh air
and sunlight. IS
8 The isolation of the patient
should continue for ten days after
all trace of the disease has disap-
peared, and until he has had dis
injecting bath and been clad in
garments which have not been in
the sick room. No person from a
house where there is diphtheria
should be permitted to go into
public assemblies, and no child
from house where this disease
has prevailed should be allowed to
attend school without certificate
from the health officer that it is
safe to do so.
10 After complete recovery, or
death, always thoroughly disin-
feet the room and its contents,
preferably with nascent Tornado
hyde, or where this is not aysila-
bile, by burning three pounds of
sulphur. moistened with alcohol,
for each 1000 cubic feet of space,
previously stopping all openings,
and dampening the floor, bedding
and clothing and leaving the room
tightly closed for twelve hours.
The room should then be thor
oughly ventilated, and all leges,
woodwork, etc.. washed with
strong soap and rinsed with h dis
injecting solution.
II In case of death, the body
should be wrapped in sheet satu-
rated in disinfecting solution
and buried without public service.
In giving notice of death newspa-
pers should state that it was from
diphtheria, and that children, and
those having the care of children,
should not attend the funeral.
IL To be effective the precau-
tions herein suggested should be
rigidly observed. Imperfect iso-
lation and disinfection are worse
than useless, giving rise only to a
false and misleading sense of
security.
IL County andmunicipal boards
of health have full authority un-
der our laws to enforce these
rules, and will fall short of their
duty if they fail to do so.
IA Arrangements have b e e n
perfected under which county or
city boards of health may procure
Alexander's antitoxin at wholesale
prices through this Board. A
constant supply of fresh antitoxin
is always on hand at Bowling
Green. Details furnished on APP
plication.
Copies of this circular, and of
similar ones in regard to scarlet
and typhoid fever and consump-
ton, for free distribution, may be
had upor application 70 the Board
at Bowling Green.
