South Carolina SanitOrium for
tuberculosis Patients.

South Carolina SanitOr1um for
tuberculosis Patients.
Under the auspices of the State
Board of Health, South Carolina is
maintaining sanitorium for the
treatment of incipient tuberculosis.
Having accepted the suggestion
made long ago by DR. J H Pryor, the
State is preparing to care for the
consumptives within her borders in
the right place, in the right way, and
at the right time, until he is cured;
instead of in the wrong place, in the
wrong way, at the wrong time, un-
til he is dead" Leading physicians
are of the opinion that every con-
sumtive, if possible, should enter a
sanatorium as the right place for
instruction and treatment. Stats
tics show that patients in sanstoria
have twice the chance of recovery
as have patients in hotels and board
ing houses in the same neighborhood.
1t is the constant daily care and
close observation of the sick con-
sumptive and the attention given
his manner of living, regulation of
rest and exercise, by trained med
ical men that turns the balance so
decidedly in favor of the patients in
sanatoria.
The South Carolina Sanatorium
for tuberculosis is eight miles from
Columbia. near Stata Park, on the
public road to Killian. There the
State has the nucleus of great in
stitution. The plant at present con-
sists of an administration building
and two units or "Shacks"-one for
men and one for women; each &C.
commodating sixteen patients. These
bulldogs are constructed especially
for the treatment of tuberculosis
and are equipped with modern light:
ing, heating and plumbing cunven-
fences.
Every growing institution has
needs and one of the chief of these
at iiSe sanatorium is a reception and
hospital building. 1t is highly de-
sirable that patients be classified and
grouped according to the stage of
their disease. A few days. observa-
tion under special conditions in re-
ceiving ward will facilitate such
classification. During this period
of close oversight, the patient will
be thoroughly instructed in the rules
relating to rest, exercise, cough. tenn
perature, pulse, disposal of sputum,
etc. On the o.her hand an infirm-
ary or hospital ward is needed for
the proper care of those who relapse
Temporarily, or are i'll from an in
tercurrent disease. tuberculosis is a
disease characterized by periods of
acquiesence and periods of exacer-
baton. During these latter occur
rences, the sick patient should not
be associated with those who are
comparatively well. Such contact
is depressing for the one and dis
couraging to the other. A special
ward or infrmary, equipped with
all necessary conveniences, should be
provided for the comfort and veil
being of those confined to bed.
Will South Carolina be derelict in
her duty of properly caring for
those of her citizens who suffer from
a durable disease, which kills as
many people, old and young, as diph-
liberia, Group. whooping cough, scar
let fever, measles, typhoid fever and
infantile paralysis taken together?

LAGS IN VITAL STATISTICS
United States Far Behind More Pro-
sressive Foreign Countries in Sys-
tenn of Preserving Records.

The United States has Jagged far be-
hind the more progressive foreign coun-
tries in the matter of maintaining re-
liable records of births, deaths and
sickness, says Uncle Sam. However,
there has been in recent years a
marked increase in the interest taken
by state and municipal authorities in
the recording of vital statistics. The
greatest difficulty in obtaining any
thing like a uniform system has been
the fact that under the constitution
the registration of vital records must
be left to the individual state govern
ments.
"The difficulty in obtaining proper
registration of vital statistics is not in
most cases due so. much to absolute
lack of legislative provision for regis
tration as to the inadequacy of the
laws or the failure to enforce them,"
says a bulletin of the bureau of the
census. "Much progress, however, has
been made in recent years. In 1900
no two states employed uniform blanks
for recording either deaths or births;
but at present what is known as the
standard death certificate has been
adopted or approved by states repre-
senting nearly 93 per cent, and the
standard birth certificate by states rep
resenting approximately So per cent, of
the total population of the country.
'Those who view with apprehension
the decline in the American birth rate
may take comfort from the fact that
| the births in this country are still far In
excess of the deaths. The excess is
probably as great as so per cent, and
may be even more, but its not pos
sible yet to estimate it with any de-
gree of precision. The population of
the United States would, therefore,
show healthy increase from decade
to decade, If the present birth and
death rates were to remain substantial
ly unchanged, even though immigra-
| ton should cease entirely"

the fact that we wash with our

we let soap do its proper share
of the work. Just enough water
to thoroughly wet the wash is
sufficient" the sergeant contin-
