CHiIDREN'9 PLAY.

Summer weather, which permits
children to play freely out Of doors,
has distinct effect upon their play
habits and their overwhelming de-
sire to get out into the fresh air
should be appreciated and met by
parents.
Get children together in outdoor
play groups. 1t is good for them
and easier for the mothers. Let a
mother or several mothers or a play
group teacher or a really intelligent
goyerness supervise their play BY
suggestion in such a way that the
children feel that they are at most
merely taking a suggestion from
their elders and working it out their
own way.

cause of his desire to serve, if pos

Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect It
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.

Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of Dr.. Kilmer's Swamp Root is
soon realized. It stands the highest for
its remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, IN
an interview on the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
so many applicants for insurance are re-
jected is because kidney trouble is 80
common to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applica-
tons are declined do not even suspect
that they have the disease.
DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root is on sale
at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes,
medium and large. However, if you wish
first to test this great preparation send
ten cents to DR.. Kilmer & Co., Bingham
ton, N. Y, for q sample bottle. When
writing be sure and mention this paper.

there is anything but what might be
expected. Patients observe all public
holidays, their Fourth of July cele-

orchestras and bands, movies and am

Sixty-five per cent Of the patients
at the Kalaupapa leper settlement Will
be discharged on parole within two
years, in the opinion Of DR.. W. j.
Goedhue, for nineteen years resident
physician there. This estimate is
based on results already obtained with
the chaulmoogra oil. prepared in the
laboratories Of the University of
Hawaii.
From recent joint report by DR..
J. 7. Mcdonald of the leprosy inves-
tigation station in Hawaii and DR..
A. L. Dean, president of the Universe
ty of Hawaii, the following concise
conclusions may be drawn as to what
the experimentation by the United
States public health service in the
treatment of leprosy has shown:
The intramuscular injection of the
ethyl esters Of the fatty acids of
chaulmoogra oil usually leads to a rap
id improvement in the clinical symp-
toms of leprosy. In many cases the
LESSONS disappear, except for scars and
permanent injuries, and the leprosy
bacillus can no longer be demon
strated.
1t has been sufficiently established
that chaulmoogra oil contains one or
more agents which exert a marked
therapeutic action in many cases of
Ieprosy It cannot be said yet that
the disease is cured, since there is
no test adequate TO establish such a
verdict. Whether or not the apparent
cures are real and permanent, it is
evident that there is a valuable agent
for the control of the disease.
The chaulmoogra oil treatment has
been for the last fifteen years the
subject of experimentation by the Uni
ted States public health service. What
has thus far been accomplished has
justified the high expectation of Sur
geon General Hugh S. Cumming Of the
public health service and his corps
OF assistants. Prominent among those
having an active hand in the expert
ments are DR.. J. w. Schereschewsky,
the assistant surgeon general; DR.
George w. Mccoy, the director of the
hygiene laboratory; DR.. J. 7. Melon
aid of the leprosy investigation sta,
ton in Hawaii, and DR.. A. L. Dean
president of the University Of Hawaii
in Honolulu.

in the Hawaiian islands, which has
conducted intensive studies in the dis
ease," said DR.. Schereschewsky. In
the course of this work the action of
chaulmoogra oil in the treatment Of
leprosy has been very closely studied.
Chaulmoogra oil, which is an oil from
the seeds of an oriental tree (Tarak-
togenos kurziD has been reputed for
a good many years to have a beneficial
action in leprosy.
"The difficulty in its use, however,
lay in Tie fact that when given by
mouth it was nauseating and offensive
to the stomach and when injected IN
tramuscularly was extremely painful
and very slowly absorbed. Various
notifications of chaulmoogra oil were
studied by the public health service,
among them a mixture suggested by
DR.. Heiser Of the service containing
chaulmoogra oil, camphorated oil and
resorcin; later olive oil was added and
guaiacol was substituted for the re-
sorcin. Results obtained by the latter
mixture were so favorable that Pro
fessor Dean, president and professor
Of chemistry in the University or
Hawaii. was led to the belief that
chaulmoogra oil might contain GER
tain active principles which could be
isolated and might be administered
with more favorable results.
1.-THE work Of DR.. Power of the
In IN
constitution of chaulmoogra oil and
it's congeners gave some hope Of this,
for they showed that in this oil there
was a new series of fatty acids (chaul-
moogric acid and hydnocarpic acid)
which differed from other known fatty
acids by having the property of rotat-
ing a beam of polarized light.
These acids, however, are solids
and hence unsuited to hypodermic adj
| ministration. As a result of series
of experiments, Professor Dean deter
mined that the ethyl esters of these
acids are thin fluid oils which lend
themselves readily TO intramuscular
injection and are readily absorbed.
These ethyl ester derivatives Of chaul-
moogra oil have now been in use at
the United States public health SER
vice leprosy investigation station at
Kalihi In the Hawaiian islands for
some three years and the results have
been very encouraging. During that
period some 40 lepers have been
paroled and returned TO their fami-
lies, the disease apparently arrested.
1.-THE effect of this treatment has
been so encouraging that now many
persons afflicted with leprosy have
| voluntarily presented themselves for
treatment to the public health service
in Hawaii, whereas in past years,
since the laws of the territorial board
of health provided for the segregation
of lepers, all persons who were suffer
ing with the disease endeavored to
hide from the authorities in order that
they might not be separated from their
families"
Besides the Investigation station at
Kalihi, the public health service also
operates a national <leprosarium at
Carville, La, which at present houses
some 112 lepers. The accommodations
are being increased so as to provide
for 70 additional beds The treatment
with chaulmoogra oil derivatives has
been begun at this institution.
