of these patients some peculiar chem

The Philadelphia doctors have no

more promising as a special remedy
for typhoid than any other remedial
substance so far known in medicine.
BY feeding and intravenously in
jecting the drug, typhoid germs can
be destroyed in a persons blood as
well as in the intestinal and urinary
passages. This is of tremendous help
in putting down the menace of the
typhoid carrier, the person who can
give the disease to others even while
remaining well himself.

~TREPTOMYCIN is a new medi-

~ and ally of famed penicillin; a
rival in fame, an ally in germtighting.
1t destroys typhoid and other fatal
disease germs that are only slightly
affected by penicil!in, if at all. Strep-
tomycin is on the way TO fame also.
But streptomycin and penicillin are
only friendly rivals. They do not inter
fere with each other in the human
body and can be employed as chemi-
cal allies for control of infections.
The case of pretty young woman,
"R. H." who was cured Of typhoid in
a surprisingly short time eXemplifies
the remarkable effect of Streptomycin.
Like scores of other persons
stricken with the disease in recent
typhoid outbreak in Philadelphia, she
had been infected by food from a
bakery where a kitchen worker was a
typhoid carrier like the notorious Ty-
phoid Mary of medical history who
spread disease among 50-odd families.
"R. H." suffered from fever for 13
days and was rapidly getting worse
when DR.. Hobart A. Reimann, OF the
Jefferson Medical College and Hospi-
tai, began injections of streptomycin
hydrochloride.
