PREVENT DISEASE
The season for measles Is approach
ing. They rage, flourish and hold sway
from January to July, reaching their
height in April. In the period of ten
years 62,888 deaths occurred, 80% of
which occurred in the first six months
of these years. This is not guess
work; this is the record. One-half of
all the deaths occur before five years
of age. Measles rank next to croup
and diphtheria in producing death.
There Is no treatment for the dis
ease, but you can prevent it, and such
DEATHS FROM MEASLES
U.' S. CENSUS RE C 0 ROS
care can be taken as to avoid compli
cations, chief of which is pneumonia.
First of all, call your physician and
let him tell you how to avoid the com
plications.
The disease is highly contagious, and
is passed from one person to another.
It has been transmitted by the blood,
but the most likely source of infection
is the secretions from the nose, mouth,
throat. The period of incubation, that
is, from the time one is exposed until
the illness comes on, "is from nine to
eleven days. The rash is quite con
stant, appearing about the thirteenth
or fourteenth day. One peculiar thing
about measles is that it reappears
about every third year in thickly set
tled localities. In more sparsely settled
sections they are farther apart. It is
highly contagious before the eruption.
The eruptioh can be seen in the mouth
several days before it “breaks out.”
Koplik spots should be looked for in
ail children who have been exposed,
and if tbe mouth shows signs or they
seem to have a fresh cold, the eyes
red and fever develops, they should be
at once isolated. Isolation of the pa
tient for two weeks is considered safe.
An attack of measles seems to lower
the resistance for other diseases, per
haps more so than any other of our
infectious diseases. It is owing to this
cause that we have tuberculosis and
pneumonia following thj disease. Ev
ery article used by the patient or that
comes in contact with the patient
should be burned, boiled or sterilized in
some way. The attendant should be
sure to wash the hands carefully and
DIPHTHERIA ANTITOXIN.
The question of the immunization of
one for diphtheria is perhaps one of
the greatest that we have to consider
in the preventive line. It offer* the op
portunity also of giving the most satia
facotry results.
The age period that is most likely
to contract the disease is from 6
months to three years. The great
probleil of prevention then, is very
early in life. Very few infants under
3 months are susceptible —from 3
months of 6 months 30 per cent will
be positive.
Passive immunity can be obtained
by giving a small dose of Antitoxin.
The immunity so induced is very in
definite and short possibly 3 to 6
weeks. It is not the best procedure,
though it is often used. The State
Board of Health does not advise It ex
cept under exceptional circumstances.
Perhaps it would, be well for us to
say further along .he line of the im
munizing doze of Antitoxin that Anti
toxic immunity cannot be depended
upon to stamp out the infection. It
has several disadvantages that should
not be disregarded; the bacilli re
main in the throats of those immun
ized and the disease continues to crop
out from time to time as the Anti
toxin disappears, it is very expensive,
time consuming and the resulting
serum reactions often disturbing.
There isn’t any question that it Should
be replaced by Toxin-Antitoxin.
The State Board of Health furnish
es the Schick test free, but does not
furnish the Toxin-Antitoxin. We fur
nish culture tubes and make tests for
Diphtheria without charge when sub
mitted by your physician.
All children over 18 months old
should be given a Schick test,- and
all positives shouil be given Toxin-
Antitoxin, It would be best to give
Toxin-Antitoxin to all babies under 18
months. Recent views by Dr. Clark
show that 1/30 of the dose of Toxin-
Antitoxin first used is sufficient to
give pexmanent immunity against the
dread disease. This small dose will
not produce.a reaction but will pre
vent the disease —Diphtheria. What
a wonderful statement that is.
By co-operation we can entirely
eradicate Diphtheria. Don’t you think
it worth while.
change the clothing before mixing with
the family or other people. No one
other than the one acting as nurse
should visit the sick room. The win
dows of the room should be darkened,
as the light hurts the eyes. A direct
draft on the patient should be avoided,
yet the room should be perfectly ven
tilated. Don’t fill the patient wi.h med'
icines and teas to break out the mea
sles; send for the doctor and have him
keep in touch with the patient, thereby
avoiding complications.
Keep little children away from the
measles; keep them from catching
measles just as long as possible; re-
member that fatalities from this dis
ease increase in proportion to the de
crease in age.
When measles occur in a community
it is not necessary to close the school
but no child should be permitted in
school who is not well. The teachers
should examine the children each morn
ing and send all suspected cases home.
All children from homes where they
have measles should he kept at home
until two weeks after exposure, then if
they are well they can return to
school.
Some day someone will isolate the
germ or causative substance, and we
will have a remedy as we now have
for smallpox, typhoid, diphtheria, etc.
In the meantime, let us do what we
can aqd save the loss of life, the suf
ferring, loss of time and money due
to this disease of childhood.

i. PREVENTION OF SMALLPOX.
1
The key to the prevention of small
pox is vaccination. If all people in
a community have been vaccinated
within five years, no epidemic ol
ißmallpox will occur in that common
jity. Smallpox in a person vaccinated
•twice is uncommon.
Secondary in prevention is the quar
jantine of the smallpox case and of all
unvaccinated persons who have come
in contact with the case. Quarantine
pf the case alone is not sufficient, as
it would not prevent infection from
those who might be still in the incu
bation period of the disease.
On the appearance of smallpox the
health officer urges all who have Mover
been vaccinated or who have not been
vaccinated within five years to be vac
cinated, knowing that if the people fol
low out this common sense procedure,
they will be immune to the disease
The result is that if ail ara vaccinated
the health officer knows that he has
no smallpox to fear, other than those
few persons infected before they were
vaccinated.
Persons vaccinated from 1 to 4 days
after exposure to a case of smallpox
rarely have the disease, the vaccina
tion protecting them.
Unvaccinated school children or
teachers should not be allowed to at
tend school, as they form a group sus
ceptible to smallpox.
BLINDNESS FROM BIRTH.
“Born blind” means neglect, pure and
simple. We have a liarnile.se preven
tive for this kind of blindness; in
fact, we have a law on our statute
books that requires the physician or
fnidwife to use this preventive. It
reads:
“That it shall be the duty of a*y
person who shall be in attendance en
any childbirth to apply to the cfctld
such prophylactic treatment as may be
prescribed by tbe State Board of Health
to prevent blindness from gonocoocua
infection.
“That any pprson who shall narae
or attend any infant shall report aay
inflammation of the eyes of said child
that shall develop within two weeks
after birth to the local health officer
or to a licensed physician.”
Sunshine is the best tonic.
THE WINDER NEWS
Strictly Business Proposition
It is a true statement, "health Is
wealth.” The statement does not
need argument. How people can af
ford to let their capital stock be
slowly absorbed and finally awake to
find themselves bankrupt is passing
strange. Good business men will not
do so where finances are involved,
they will look carefully after their
monthly, weekly and daily statements;
they will keep in close touch with
the buying and selling ends; they will
see that the credit man does his part
and that the bills are promptly paid
or know the reason why. Yet, it Is
passing strange that these same men,
and in fact, all men and women, neg
lect the greatest single asset in their
business, it is strange that men of
intelligence, men of common sense,
men of judgment, will tor a day neg
lect their bodies and allow disease to
gradually grow and undermine their
physical being. All business must and
does depend upon the people; without
the people there would he no business.
There would be no sound business
without some healthy people. If the
country, the men and women who
make up the world, are in poor health,
general business must suffer just that
much If they are not well enough
to produce normally all things that
go towards this world’s needs, then
there must needs be a lack. If any
part of a community is side, not only
the one who is sick is affected, but
his neighbors are not in as good
shape as they would be if he were
well. If in the course of business
someone fails to meet his obligations
and his creditor has to take this in
dividual loss, he subtracts just that
much from the balance of profit. It
is just* so if one, whether he be a
producer or not, subtracts from the
health of the community; the profit
as a whole has been lowered.
The individual should have at least
one complete examination a year, and
he should scrupulously observe the or
ders of his physician. The community
needs constant pare for the reason
that it is made up of many individuals.
The public health is the roost essen
tial of all things to the progress of
the people, the community, the coun
ty, the state, the nation, it matters not
what it costs in money; it cannot be
estimated in dollars and cents, yet it
can be cheaply bought.
A full-time health officer under the
Ellis Health Law can be employed at
a most reasonable figure. The health
unit can be made extensive or limited
as you wish, but in any size it is
well worth while. It is perhaps the
best form of health work known. The
very best financial investment. The
greatest trouble at the present time
is to get men who are .adapted and
qualified for the work. The field of
preventive medicine Is so different
from tb care of the disease that it is
hard to find men qualified and adopt
ed to the care of the community as a
whole; men who are fitted for the
work are in demand.
It is indeed and in truth fine busi
ness to buy futures in fine, robust
ealth.
• Disagreeable Duties.
Tbe easiest time to do a disagree
able duty Is when we first decide It Is
a duty. Evasion and delay double tbe
unpleasantness, and hours of fore
taste and distaste are added to dis
comfort the decisive action tha. m-ust
come at last. Dodging the disagree
able Is a losing game.
