INFLUENZA CURE
Doctor Claims Discovery to
lmmunize Patients.

New York, June 1S-InfiuenZa and
pneumonia are no more to be feared
than a boil on the back of the neck,
according to DIR. Charles II. Duncan,
one Of the founders of the Volunteer
hospital, who, in an address mere De-
fore the convention of the Allied Medi-
cal Associations of America, describ-
ed his method of combating Spanish
Influenza by means of "immunizing a
patient to his own poison"
Upon 246 patients ill with pneumo-
mia and influenza last winter Doctor
Duncan said, he had used the treat
ment without a single fatality or any
complications.
Briefly" the physicians said, Il
take one drachm of mucus from the
infected area and pasteurize it in one
ounce of filtered water where it re-
mains several hours. One cubic CEN
timeter Of this toxia, injected subcu-
taneuosly, will effect a spontaneous
cure Of Spanish influenza, pneumonia,
catarrh, or any similar localized in
lection. 1t will stop any cough, eN-
cept tuberculosis, inside of twenty
four hours"
Doctor Duncan declared that his
discovery was based upon his obser-
vation of a dog licking sore paw.
He said the dog, by increasing germs
of resistance at the place of infection
brought about natural healing.

What You Pay

Here are few plain, though none
the less startling, facts which should
be carefully studied by every en-
ployer of labor who wishes to i'm
prove efficiency, reduce production
costs ard put his plant on a basis
where it will pay dividends on the
investment
The data is furnished by a corpo-
ration that among it's other activi-
ties built a city in a wilderness for
the housing of thousands of men and
women employees, and when efficien-
cy dropped below what might be ex-
pected. sent experts to conduct a sur
vey and find the cause. 1t devel-
oped:
That one employe in every ten had
a venereal disease.
That 68 per cent. of the none-ef-
fectives were on the none-effective
list because of venereal diseases.
That every person who mad a VEN
ereal disease lost three times as
many hours from work as the per-
son not affected.
That it cost every person so afflic-
ted S75 per year for treatment; a to-
tai of $4,000 for treatment with
loss CT time greatly exceeding this
amount
1t was reasonably established that
conditions in the plant surveyed were
typical of conditions in other plants.
1t served the purpose of convinc-
ing the officials that it would be we'll
worth the cost to remedy the situa-
ton. The United States Public
Health Service was appealed to and
co-operated in establishing free
clinics where the employees could be
treated. 1t took only a comparative
ly short while to write off the cost
of operating the clinics by increased
production. Remarkable progress
has been reported in suppression, re-
duction of new cases, making the
affected noninfectious, and in cures.
Can any big, or little business, in
which conditions are very likely to
be similar to the above, afford to
continue to sustain this annual loss !;
loss that could easily be saved and
put the plant on a basis of profit
