CUREDLEPROSY
Two Patients in the Philippine
Islands Recover From Most
Dreaded of Diseases.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 2O.-An ap-
parent cure for leprosy has been
found By surgeons of the Public
Health Service at the leper colony in
the Philippines-in fact, so much of
a cure that two patients who showed
distinct signs Of leprosy when they
were admitted to the institution have
been discharged as cured. However,
there seems to be uncertainty as to
just which of two treatments effected
the cure-a vaccine treatment or
chaulmugra oil taken by mouth and
hypodermically.s
The patients who were discharged
were given both treatments. but there
are said now TO be in the hospital a
number of other cases which have
shown negative" for the past TWEEN
ty-two months, and these received
only chaulmugra oil treatment
Surgeon Victor G. Heiser, of the
Public Health Service. chief quaran-
tine officer and director of health OF
the Philippine Islands, in reporting on
sthe two cases which were discharged
says
Two patients who had been con-
fined to the San Lazaro Leper Hos
pital on account of leprOsy. have been
pronounced apparently cured and dis
charged from that institution on pro-
baton
The first case was that of male
Filipino, aged %. who was admitted
to the San Lazaro Lepec Hospital,
Manila, May 20. 1909 On admission
the case clinically showed thickened
reddish spots on the nose and thick
ening and discolOration of the lobe
OF the right ear. He received vac
cine treatment at intervals, beginning
in August, 1909, but at the expiration
Of one year no change was noted in
his condition. From September, 1870,
to November, 1910, crude chaulmugra
oil was given by mouth in increasing
doses.
THE case showed evidences of inn
provement. November 10. 1910, chaul-
mugra oil. combined with oil OF cam
phor and resorcin, was given hypo-
dermically. BY May 6. 1911, the le-
sions above described had disappear
Ell and lepTosy bacilli were not found
in repeated microscopical eXamina
lions.
ION June II. 1918, a most careful
clinical and microscopical examina
ton was made Of the patients, which
resulted negatively for Jeprosy, and
as the patient had now been appar-
emily cured for a period of over two
years, he was discharged on proba-
ton.
THE other case was that OF a
Filipino woman, aged %, who was
admitted to San Lazaro Leper Hos
pital, Manila, January I, 1910. Gin
ically this patient presented a SUI
fused countenance, due to generalized
infiltration.
Upon admission this patient was
placed upon a vaccine treatment for
a period of five months, but at the
enc Of the first month after her ad-
mission crude chaulmugra oil by
mouth was given in addition to the
vaccine
After the second month the pa
tient began to improve rapidly, and
on May 6. 1911, leprosy bacilli could
not be found OF microscopical eX-

New England, where it has been

In the seven southern states of Mary
