Nue., Hope for LcPers.

Whenever announcement Is made that
a .aire has been found for anything the
MEDICAL profession RAISES. the note or
ca9tion. 1t would know how many
casas have been treated and makes un-
reienting analysis, Even granting full
SWAY TO scepticism. however. there is
aAundant ground for believing that there
il anuch hope for the leper.
-Reprosy. although it has existed SO
long in the East did not appear in
Hawaii until 1s4s. when it was be-
-assad to have found its way there from
china. Various remedies were tried
in the effort to drive 1t from its lodg-
ment, but before many years there We're
1000 inhabitants of the Islands segre-
gated on account of the disease. Little
progress had been made, however, in
combating II.
The development OF bacteriology IN
r,e last fifty years has done much, how
ever. to aid in the treatment Of the
vasting plague The isolation OF the
bacilli leprae in 1871 was followed by
further developments, and as early az
1888 medical science turned toward
staulnoorra oil 1t was not until ten
Years ago, however that the tests OF
the remedy were developed along lines
which justified a good opinion OF It's
efacacy.
lust why the OIL snOulu HuNc 81
marked an effect is a matter OF con-
lecture, for at first its use was re-
4 .arded as purely empirical Leprosy Is
distinguished by the formation OF
--rrat number Of granular cells, and
large nodules of infected matter form
! under the skin and give that loath-
sbine appearance which marks even the
first stages of the disease. In these
a6dula. are found embedded the bacilli.
II rs believed that the chaulmoogra oil
contains an active principle, not as yet
=. Identified, which gradually destroys
Z ,yfleSe bacilh.
=, The oil Is usually given BY injecting
: IL. into the veins with a hypodermic
syringe, but il can also be administered
in. gelatine capsules by the mouth. It
has. an unpleasant taste and Is likely
to disturb the digestion when so given.
re has also been employed combined
with camphorated oil and resorcin.
aMThen swallowed it has been noted that
the crude oil is more efficacious than
THE refined, which Indicates that proc
tSsing ia some way affects the subtle
and beneficent active principle.
..The elaborate report on the treatment
made by DR.. Victor II. Heiser. q sur
geon OF the United States Public Health
.asrvice aud the Director OF Health for
rho Philippine Islands. for a copy OF
!. tltich / am indebted to the Rockefeller
!. Foundation. gives many convincing ev1-
dences OF the value OF the chaulmoogrn
oil treatment.

The suit Is built OF Is and u inch
metal and weighs more than 500 pounds.
In making his recent descent Walker
added fifty pounds OF lead to the soles
of his shoes.
owing to the rigidity of the suit, pres
sure AZ the depth attained was but
forty pounds to the square inch inside
the outside.
The suit has ball bearing joints and
artificial hands. 1t cost about $4,000 TO
make. Walters is q well known diver.

been obtained. He was not inclined to
believe that the development OF the
treatment as he observed 1t in the Phil
ippines warranted the claim that any
thing like specific had been found.
Experience does show" he contin-
ued, that chaulmoogra oil gives more
consistently favorable results than any
other that has come to our attention. 1t
produces apparent cures in come cases,
causes great Improvement in others ana
arrests the progress of the disease in
almost every instance. We have on hand
at least twenty persons who have been
microscopically negative ever since they
have begun the treatment. The treat
ment Is apparently equally efficacious in
all forms of disease. Experience shows
the great desirability of further trial in
the hands of other workers in different
parts OF the world, with the hope that
improvements may result"
One OF the most interesting groups OF
cases, consisting of twelve Filipnos or
various ages and sexes, shows that there
is fighting chance at least for the
average leper. II the deductions were
applied on a large scale from these
figures 1t would be shown that only IL
per cent OF the patients showed merely
slight Improvement, the majority regis
tering apparently clinical recoveries or
marked Improvement. The statistical
summary presented on this page is
therefore significant.
The studies or the typical cases there
presented reveal that often the mega
tive" condition OF the skin was not
reached Cor two years. but that the inn
provement was progressive.

An Old Theory Upset.

Take, for instance, the case OF a fish
erman OF So. who on February IL. 1912,
became. a member of the series under
observation. One Of the traditions about
leprosy, by the way, was that 1t was
largely contracted by persons who ate
fish and was more common TO those who
dwelt on the shores of the ocean or the
lakes. This theory does not hold up un-
der observation. for in this group there
were farmers who dwelt in the Interior
OF the country.
This patient had eaten rice and fish
three times day ever since he could
remember and had meat once a week
His leprosy was shown about two years
before he came for treatment by lump
on the nose. Then spots began to ap-
pear on the forehead and cheeks. There
was also considerable numbness about
the external borders OF the little finger
OF the left hand. He also complained Of
loss OF appetite His disease was dag
nosed as hypertrophic leprosy, dag
nosis confirmed by the microscope at
the Bureau Of Science in Manila.
His treatment began with the inJec-
ton or two cubic centimeters OF chaul-
moogra oil every eight days. The dose
was gradually increased until on April
10, 1917, Ave cubic certimeters were
given every three days. On February
81, 1913, the dose was gradually re-
duced to two cubic centimeters. On Oc-
tober IS the dose was gradually in
creased to ten cubic centimetres. After
February IA, 1914, he received five cubic
centimeters a week end then ten cubic
centimeters a week. A portion Of the
dose was frequently injected direct into
the lnfiltrated LESSONS or Jumps. As
result tho leprous deposits were almost
