satisfactory.

DAYS is more than l would care to
do.
The Two Methods
It will be universally found that
those who favor the intensive method,
are those who do not believe in the
value of the opsonic index and also
are those who report failure in the
use of tuberculin. Vice versa those
who believe in the opsonic index use
the minimizing method, and are those
who report favorably upon the use OF
tuberculin.
The claim is made by those opposed
to the opsonic index that it varies so
rapidly from day to day that it can
not be of any value-this veriation
being due to absorption Of tubercular
products from the diseased focus. In
my opinion this is only true in ex-
tensively diseased condition, and
, tuberculin is not suitable to such
cases; although | have not seen any
harm result from its use in advanced
cases, and its opponents have never
so claimed But I we'll believe harm
might result in the intensive method.
The point want to make, however,
is this: that where the lung is so eX-
tensive1y involved as to make varia-
tons of over 20 per cent in the
ops0uic index-tuberculin treatment
would be of no value anyway, and the
physical condition Of the patient in
dicates it.
If a patients own Interpretation Of
his feelings, or if his statements were
reliable the opsonic index might be
more frequently dispensed with. But
patients statements are not reliable
we all know that.
There is the pessimistic patient
that never admits he feels better no
matter what you do for MIN. and then
there is the crafty patient he dis
covers that if he tells you he felt
bad after the last injection you cut
Honolulu star-bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1912-2010, 1913-02-15

almost all can be classified as appar-
eut cures, but If only half of them
are eventually so classified, the per
centabe of cnres among those treat
ed by tuberculin will be. fifty per
cent
When it is considered that this fifty
Ter cent is estimated including cases
known to be unsuitable, and cases IN
which tuberculin has been given any
thing but fair trial, and in sanatorla
who limit their patients to only milo
or incipient cases (such as l believe
suitable for tuberculin) the percent
age of cures is twenty-five per cent
q showing of twice that percentage
of cures under the adverse basis OIL
reckoning mentioned, is certainly en-
couragng and alone should be testl
mony in favor OF the tuberculin treat
ment.
Form of Tubercultn
The form of turebculin used is that
known as: New Tuberculin-T. X
That obtained from makers in the
United States has not in my hands
given such uniformly good results as
that obtained from Germany-that
manufactured by I.ucius & Brunlng
has been almost exclusively employed
In the last six. months.
1t is perhaps proper here to eX
nrain that there are two methods OF
using tuberculin. One is called the
intensive, or clinical, method. IN
which, briefly, small dose OF one
thousandth OF a milligram is gwen &c
start with, and then at intervals Of a
few days the previous dose in doubled

in weight. From previous behavior of
the case a fall in weight was to be
expected after July 90. Tuberculin
was administered on that date and
during the next week instead OF fall
there was gain in weight of seven
pounds in the one week. Since then
the case has progressed rapidly, re-
sulting in a gain of 80 lbs. in eight
weeks. The patient was discharged
in September and has been under OBJ
servatiOn since, with continued gain
in weight.
Type 4, case =, Korean, male, 90
years, 1st stage. Shows a gain OF 1879
lbs. in two months. Attention is di-
rected to the fact that for three
weeks after admission his weight fell
gradually from 100 lbs. to 1O5 and
remained there another three weeks
till September End. TuberCuln was
commenced on that date, and the re-
IspOnse is immediate. In the week
following he gained all he had lost,
and more tive pounds and has pro-
crossed steadily to date, and is about
to be discharged as an apparent cure,
all symptoms having been absent for
several weeks.

Itrolled by the opsonic index. In this
method, one seldom or never goes
above one-fiye-hundredth of a MILL
gram in dosage-about one-thousandth
the dose reache ed by the intensive
method. This is a discrepancy IN
dosage that is surely of more AGA
demical Importance.
