Tuberculosis
Its Cure
BY Brice Belden, Nj. D.

- ERHAPS the most important
thing in the treatment of
u tuberculosis is keeping the
patient happy and contented.
Therefore, in selecting a sanitor-
ium. the distance from the pa
tents home must be taken into
account. II the distance is so
great as to discourage the visits
Of friends and relatives. 1t is prob
able that the lonely patient will
not, in such circumstances, remain
happy and contented very long.
The expense and time necessary
for such visiting must be carefully
considered.
1t Is better to send a patient
to a nearby institution not so
well located in other respects as
to one far distant, II by so doing
he is made accessible to friends
and relatives.
1t Is not too much to say that
happiness and contentment are
even more important than fresh
air and altitude-at least, in most
Of the cases. There may be an
occasional individual for whom
separation from relatives and
friends would be best. He would
be that type of patient inclined
to take the task ahead a little too
gravely. His peculiar tempera-
ment would enable him to rule out
ruthlessly every element in his life
except the one job of treating his
disease.
1t is this type of patient who
is in danger of unlovely degree of
selfishness. One might say that
in the instances where this hap
pens the patients substitute
moral disease for a physical one,
justifying some doubt as to one
ultimate profit.
In the majority of cases it Is
really essential that they be in
constant and near communication
with relatives and friends. The
best authorities declare that the
best Of food, care and attention,
and the most beautiful surround.

year old woman, her health broken,
lay bedfast here today and promised to

borrowed on unsecured notes.
The woman, who late yesterday

would make public records of all her
transactions just as soon as she re-
covers from the present illness. The
two attorneys represented claims
against the woman of S250,000. She
told them this is about two-thirds of
her total indebtedness.
Hatch said he believed the woman
would succeed in clearing up all her
debts. Her sudden disappearance at
