NEW TREATMENT FOR
LEPROSY SUCCESSFUL

The United States Public Health
Service has reports of what appears
to be a cure for leprosy, it was an
nounced by Surgeon General Hugh
S. Cumming yesterday.
Thus one of the worlds most
dreaded maladies, regarded as a
hopeless and incurable scourge of
humanity since early history, would
seem to have been conquered by Of
ficers of the Public Health Service
in the leper colony in the Hawaiian
Islands.
For some years the belief has
been gaining ground that leprosy
could be cured, and encouraging
progress was made by several inyes-
tigators. The starting point for this
study was the observation that now
and then the course of the disease
appeared to be favorable Influenced
by treatment with chaulmoogra oil.
The treatment, however, was at
tended with many difficulties and
could not be carried out in all cases.
At this point the Public Health
Service enlisted the cooperation of
Prof. l.. L. Dean, head of the chem
ical department of the College of
Hawaii. and president of that in
suggesting that attempts
be made either to isolate the active
constituent of this drug, or devise
means for making its continued ad-
feasible. The latter
has been accomplished by preparing
what is known as an ethyl ester"

from the Chaulmoogra oil. The
treatment has been carried on at the
Leprosy Investigation Station at Kali
hi, Hawaii, the work being directe I
by DR.. j. T. Mcdonald, director OF
the station. The results of the Great
ment thus far have been so satisfac-
tory that lepers come willingly for

Hawaiian health authorities fai--

leprosy. Following course of
treatment, extending over about a
year, AS lepers, treated according to
the new methods, were paroled In
October, 1919. Up to now they
have remained free from disease. At
the present time the treatment has
been administered only at the receiv-
ing station, but it is hoped to provide
facilities for the treating also of
lepers in the leper colony at Molo-
kai.
Surgeon General Cummings an
nouncement relates to lepers who
have been treated by the new meth
cd and have been under observa-
tion for a considerable period.
Moreover, the decision as to appar-
ent cure has, in the case of each
patient, been officially determined,
not by officers of the Public Health
Service but by special parole board,
which alone has authority to dis
charge a patient from custody.
The Public Health Service is now
conducting a very careful study of
the treatment, making detailed rec

THE GIFT OF SEEING
BOTH WAYS AT ONCE

Nature has endowed some animals
with the power of seeing objects be-
hind as we'll as in front of them, with
out turning their heads. II is a gift
of course intended for their protec-
tion, and why a similar means of
avoiding perils from behind was not
accorded to man can, perhaps, only
be explained on the theory that it
would have married his beauty.
The hare possesses this power of
seeing both ways, to a marked degree.
Its eyes are prominent and placed
laterally. Its visual accomplishment
is very noticeable in coursing, for al
tho the greyhound is mute while run
ming, the hare is able to Judge to a
nicely the exact moment which will
be best for it to exercise itself to the
utmost to avoid capture.
Horses. furnish another example of
hindsight. 1t is only necessary to
watch horse driven without "blin1-
ers" to observe this.- Let the driver
even attempt to take the whip from
the socket, and if the horse is used to
the work, he will hit pace at once.
The giraffe, which is a very timid
creature, is approached with the ut
most difficulty, because of its power
through the way its eyes are placed
of seeing as well behind as in front.
And many other examples might be
cited to prove this particular advan-
tage of dumb animals over man.
