DR.. Kenneth e. Kellogg of this
city who has made a special study
into the causes and treatment of ty-
phoid fever with particular reference
to dictates has had considerable sue
cess in what is known in the medical
world as the high caloric treatment
as opposed to the old so-called STAR
walton method. In connection with
his work in this branch of the medi-
cal field, Dr. Kellogg recently prepar-
ed paper which was so highly re-
garded that the Medical Record of
New York gave it space as leading
article in a current issue. Owing to
the importance of the work that is
being done in the battle against the
dreaded typhoid fever and the fact
that DR.. Kellogg, a local physician,
has scored such a signal success, the
article in question is reprinted be-
low:
THE HIGH CALORY DIET IN TY-
PHOID FEVER.
BY Kenneth f. Kellogg, MD,
New Britain, Conn.
Fellow N. Y. Academy of Medicine
The progress of the science and art
of internal medicine in the last few
decades, and the application Of mod
ern knowledge to the management of
infectious diseases, are in many in
stances equally radical though per-
haps less striking than the brilliant
results achieved by contemporaneous
surgery,
A good example is afforded by the
high calory diet in typhoid fever,
a drastic departure from the star
walton method which not so long ago
was considered as inseparable from
the therapeutics of fevers in general,
and enteric fever in particular We
have since learned that in disease
no less than in health, the body re-
quires an uninterrupted replenish-
ment of it's protein store.
Briefly sketched, the dietary history
of typhoid fever is as follows: Eighty
years ago, carbohydrate water, jelly,
and broths were advocated by Graves.
In the seventies of the last century,
two quarts of milk made the daily
menu for Austin Flint patients. No
dissenting voice was raised against
an exclusive milk diet in typhoid
fever until Shattuck, in 1897, advo-
Gated more liberal feeding, as he
found no greater frequency of perfor-
alton or intestinal hem orrhage on a
high than on low calory diet in
this disease. BY high calory diet
is meant one Of 1000 to 5000 cal
cries daily, considerable increase

ed by all the advocates of the method,
both in this country and abroad.
Bars, in England, and Won Muller,
in Munich, are leading foreign ex-
ponents of the high calory treat
ment, in form of mixed diet. for
typhoid patients. The plan is widely
adopted in Russia.
The prevention and control of ty-
phoid fever is one of the urgent prob
lens Of modern warfare. Writing from
the seat of war, DR.. Romberg COT the
First Medical Clinic, in Munich) en-
phasizes te decisive importance of a
liberal diet, /. e. high calory feeding,
from the very first day of the disease.
He says that at least thirty to fifty
calories per kilo of body-weigh
should be given every day. The fail
ure of the general circulation in these
cases is often merely the rsult of in
sufhclent nutrition, not of the disease
itself. Bedsores and furunculosis are
likewise referable to UNDER eding.
The diet especially recommended by
him consists of to 2 IL liters milk,
IA liter cream, four to five eggs, por-
ridges sweetened with lactose, on &C
count of the liability of cane sugar to
ferment. There is no objection against
giving tender meats, scraped or
minced, creamed toast, mashed pota-
toes, or purees of green vegetables
All these foods are transformed in the
intestine into bland and innocuous
chyme.
1t is som etimes claimed that the
high calory diet has substituted the
classical milk menu of these patients,
but this is not strictly true. in so far
as milk forms the basis of the high
calory feeding and can be exclusively
given in the early stage Of severe cases
up to an amount of 5000 Galleries. In
a case of well-marked anorexia, it
may not be possible to persuade tho
patient to partake of other than liquid
food, during the first week or two.
Soups and porridges, prepared with
100 6. farina, rice, oats, sage, or tapio-
ca, are then in order. Other articles
of food are gradually added, such as
buttered toast, scrambled eggs, junk
ct and custards, cereals, mashed pota-
toes, apple sauce, ETC., until about
4,5OO calories are reached, which is
usually a sufficient quantity to offset
the loss in weight due to the fever it.

Train. IN the steep curve period, and
during convalescence, as pointed out
by Coleman, patients take readily

Still higher feelings are sometimes
advantageous. In his experience Of

DRY diet apparently convalescence, and
reduced the mortality. The incidence
of hemorrhage and perforation was
lessened.

MINERS ARE
RESCUED

linton, w. Va, Mar. 8.-Forty-seven
miners We're rescued today from the
workings of the Layland mines of New
River, the Pocahontas Consolidated
Coal company, wrecked Tuesday by an
explosion. The men had been four
days and nights without food or drink.
It is believed that all of them will re-
cover. In all So men have been res
cued alive, and IS bodies recovered.
Thirty are still unaccounted for. The
rescrers headed by j. W. Paulof of the
bureau of mines, Earl Henry chief of
the state department Of mines and H.
M. Bartlot, general manager of the
company, entered No. 8. Tearing down
brattice work to let in fresh air,
they found five men. Continuing the
search the rescurers encountered an
other brattice about 500 yards beyond.
Here they found forty-two men alive.
The miners were in such weakened
condition that the rescuers had to
carry them through the damp and gas
to the entrance.
Realizing that their only hope for
rescue was in keeping out the gas and
afterdamp, the men, mostly of foreign
birth, collected planks for barricade
Behind this barricade the AZ waited in
the dakness SO hours until the rescuers
came.
The rescued men suffered severely
form lack of food and drink. Medical
aid was given them promptly and they
were taken to their homes.

Author of "Soldiers Of the Common

Articles.

The American public has awakened
to the fact that the question Of how
the other half lives is more than a
matter of curiosity. The welfare of
the laboring elements Of the popula-
ton is now understood to b. vital
ulationmatter in the development of
the entire country. Hence, when a
message comes from one who knows
modern conditions, the whole world is
ready to listen. It is, perhaps, due to
this, as well as the fact that the arti-
cles came from one who was known to
be an authority, that Charles Edward
Russell at once appealed to the inter-
est and to the heart of the great read
ing public when his articles entitled
Soldiers of the Common Good" first
appeared. Russell was known to be
especially well fitted for the task Of
bringing to light modern conditions o1

GOOD FEATURE
At THE GRAND.

Saturday evening, Mar. 13, at the
Grand opera house in this city will ap-
pear that great play, "The Sign of the
Cross" in moving pictures. This is an
exceptionally strong play, being head
ed by that noted player, William Far
mum. Everything has been done to
give the most sumptuous and lavish
production to play which lends itself
admirably to spectacular effects, and
the result is a film which rivals in
splendor any Of the classical produc-
tions yet presented to the public.
It would be impossible to overesti-
mate the emotional power of the film.
In the role Of Marcus Superbus, Mil
liam Farnum is noble and dignifed,
both in the tender love passages with
Mercia or when turning in fierce wrath
upon his enemies and calumniators.
The production will undoubtedly be
conceded the foremost film classic ev-
er produced in America.
