Government Surgeons Conduct
ing Comprehensive Experiment
With Friedmann’s "Cure.”
NEW YORK. April 19.—The Sunday
American, through the courtesy of Dr.
Peter Irving, visiting physician to the
Seton Hospital, was permitted yester
day to examine the eighteen patients,
together with their histories and clin
ical records, that are being treated
by Dr. Friedrich Franz Friedmann
with his vaclne for the cure of tuber
culosis.
The.-o patients are the subjects .of
the official test upon which the
United States Government surgeons
will report as to the value of the
remedy which the German physician
claims is a cure for the "White
Plag ue."
The eighteen patients were chosen
by Dr. Friedmann from 60 that were
first selected for the test demanded
by the United States Government.
Test Begun Two Weeks Ago.
The treatment by Dr. Friedmann
was made on April 6. In the presence
of Dr. F. H. Lavender and Dr. A. C.
stimpson. of the United States Ma
rine Hospital and Public Health Ser
vice; Drs. Irving and Gardner, of the
Seton Hospital, and two of Fried
mann’s own assistants.
Whatever tnay he the Anal conclu
sion regarding the efficiency of the
Friedmann vaccine for tuberculosis,
the fact can be stated that at this
time the officials of the Government
who have been watching the tests
mr.de in this country have found that
the catients whom the Berlin special
ist has inoculated have NOT shown
any of those signs that would in any
way point to an ultimate cure.
Most Comprehensive Test.
Perhaps the most comprehensive
tesl being conducted here is at the
Seton Hospital There the German
physician was allowed to pick out a
hundred cases. Some sixty of these
were actually examined and set aside
?or treatment. At the last moment
only eighteen patients were Inocu
lated with the vacrlne. Since April C,
the date of the treatment, frequent
examination of the cases have been
made by the Government and hospital
officials.
These patients are divided into two
classes, women and girls with pul
monary phthisis and children wdtli
tuberculosis of the joints.
In the first of these classes the
changes have been so slight that
where they can he noted at all, they
fail to present any conclusion# look
ing toward a cure.
In the second class the children
have by this time recovered from the
severe reaction occurring immediate
ly after the treatment that sent their
temperatures up to around 104 de-
grees and their pulse to between 156
and ISO beats a minute. They ap-
stiear to have suffered no Injury from
‘ this strain, but a most careful ex
amination of their charts and Inquiry
Into their present physical condition
fails to bring out anything that can
be regarded as improvement.
In one case among the orthopedic
patients one. child who is suffering
from morbus coxae (tuberculosis of
the hop), the ordinary test of im
provement Is to be found In the mo
bility of the joint. Before the Fried
mann treatment was given the af
fected leg could be moved 45 do
grecs. In the latest examination Dr.
Benjamin, of Dr. Friedmann's staff,
claims that he found a slightly great
er flexibility. The other doctors do
not find this.

not he’d come right down stairs In
his rompers and let you In before the
maid could get there. And he'd shake
hands with you—yes, sir—just like
father.
Davis Willet’s neVer been sick ir.
bis life except when he had pneumo
nia, and these are the things that
helped to make him one of the sturdi
est little chaps In Atlanta:
Mother's milk until he was 18
months old.
Corsals.
Chioken broth.
Rico with beef juice.
Orange juice.
He Wine a Heart.
The girl reporter’s heart was ship
wrecked and lost to Davis Willet the
minute she set eyes on him at his
home at 1129 Peachtree Street.. The
•hipwreok happened, while. Mrs.
Moore, who Is one of Atlanta's well
known society women, was saying
that when a woman had children she
ought to stay at home and take care
of them, because children are the
greatest assets In the world.
A little voice began to sing, pantlng-
ly, on the stairs. Somebody was la
boriously coming down, one foot at
a time. In a minute there was a thump
of a baby shoe on the bottom floor
and a soft grunt as it landed. Then
a flying figure with golden hair came
rushing straight up to the reporter,
out of breath with happiness. Davis
Willet wasn’t afraid of strangers—he
should say not!
"Hello.” he announced in an abso
lutely chummy note. (Right here the
heart-shipwreck.)
Mother Has Opinions.
Mrs. Moore has decided opinions
on the proper bringing up of lltle
folks.
In the first place, she thinks a
mother should set out to give her
child the very best constitution pos
sible when It comes into the world.
"She should never feed It unnutural
milk if she can possibly help it," she
| said, "A child shouldn’t have cow’s
milk until he’s about 18 months old.
Then the milk should be diluted with
water for several days until the baby
gradually becomes used to its rich
ness.
Davis Willet’s mother said she also
believed In spanking. To “Buster’s”
open grief )»ho asserted that the old
doctrine about sparing the rod and
spoiling the child would hold water
every time.
“My mother made an excellent
daughter out of me spanking,” she
cited, “and what was good for me. Is
good for my two boys now. A child
must be punished in some way, and
It’s better to spank him and get the
agony over than to send him to bed
or lock him up jn a dark closet to
think mean things about you.
boiled rice with beef juice
chicken broth with rice.
Dinner—A oup of milk and a
cereal.
How Broth Is Made.
"To make that broth I Just unjoint
n chicken and put It In a clean white
cheese-cloth bag. Then I pour two
pints of cold water over the bag and
let it simmer in a pan on the back
of the stove for three hours until It
Is reduced to 11-2 cups of liquid.
1 take it off of the fire then and
strain the 'lquld through another
cloth and add a tablespoonful of rice
and let it simmer again until the
rice is soft. Then I thicken the whole
with a shallow teaspoonful of flour
mixed with a little water and add salt
to taste.
"The rice and beef juice recipe Is
a little simpler." went on Mrs. Moore,
smiling surreptitiously at Buster’s lat
est move. “Be sure your rice 1s
boiled well and then pour the juice
over it. The beef juice Is obtained
by taking one-half pound of round
steak and cooking It on a hot skll-
Infant sickness and mortality need
not be feared in May by mothers if
the rules laid down by the Georgia
Board of Health are followed. Com
ing right at the beginning of the
summer, when showers add to the
danger. May has become connected
by superstition with the thought of
great sickness among children. A
baby fed properly will come through
May unscathed, said the Board. The
following rules are laid down:
Feed your baby, if you can,
from your own milk. It was in
tended for the baby and nothing
will suit It as well or do more
to preserve its health, than the
mother’s milk.
If the mother has no milk the
best obtainable food is modified
cow's milk—modified and pre
pared under the physician’s di
rections to suit the age and con
dition of the child.
Don't overfeed the child. The
amount of food should always be
reduced in hot weather. If on
the breast, nurse it less often and
give more water; if on the bot
tle, pour out one-fourth of the
milk and replace it with water,
then make the feedings further
apart.
Don't feed a child simply be
cause it cries; it may be only
thirsty. Give it plenty of fresh,
pure drinking water.
Don't give your child any solid
food under twelve or thirteen
months of age. Without teeth it
can not be chewed and is bound
to act as an intestinal irritant,
nearly always causing trouble.
The child should be weaned at the
end of the first year by gradual
ly reducing the feedings at the
breast and cautiously substitut
ing other foods.
Keep the bottles clean. Boil
them after each feeding. When
filled with fresh, modified milk,
stop them with cotton and keep
in a cool place until needed. Heat
by placing the bottle, milk and
all, In warm water and keeping on
the stove until the proper tem
perature is reached; don’t pour
the milk into another vessel for
the purpose of heating.
Keep the nipples clean. Wash
after using and place them in a
solution of boracic acid until
needed. Then rinse one off and
place It on the bottle.
Don’t "dose" the baby. If the
baby Is sick, if it has a bowel
complaint or fever, stop Its food
at once and get a doctor as quick
ly as possible. Many babies are
killed every year by too much
home "dosing.”
Don’t overheat the child with
flannels and heavy clothing. The
clothing should be light, particu
larly In hot weather.
Give the baby Its dally bath, at
all times. If the weather be very
hot. It will add to Its comfort to
sponge It two or three times a
day with a little cool water.
Don't keep the child In a hot,
stuffy room. See that it has plen
ty of purs fresh air; encourage It
to stay out in the air. Kven a
child with fever and bowel com
plaint does better out in the air
In pleasant summer weather than
In the close, hot room.

Buster Grows Serious.
Buster had taken his seat In a big let for five minutes—two and a half
arm chair where he could hear well,
his feet stuck straight out in front
of him. His mother smiled—a big,
beautiful smile—at his serious atti
tude.
“A child can be trained to like
everything," she declared, "and should
be taught to drink both sweet milk
and buttermilk. They’re good for
him In the first place, and If he’s
sick, the problem of his food is solved.
I’ve taught Davis to eat a number
of things he didn’t like.”
She looked at Davis Willet for con
firmation, but Davis was lost In
thoughts of dark closets, being a good
boy and things. She went over to
the bookcase for some note paper.
"No." she said, “I don’t mind giv
ing you the recipes for things I feed
Davis on.”—answering the reporter's
question. "They may help some other
mother who wants her child to have
a healthy little body, for I know that
his food has been responsible for his
being such a fine, strong child. Here's
the little menu he has lived on since
he was 18 months old. She wrote:
Breakfast—Cereal with ricn
milk and a mug of milk.
Forenoon (11 o'clock)—The
juice of an orange, strained, with
dry toast.
Luncheon. (2 o'clock)—Soft-

minutes on each side. Then cut It
into rmall pieces and mash it through
a potato creamer. Strain It through
a cheese cloth and add salt to taste.
Buster decided he wouldn’t sleep
after all—this was a big, exciting
world, and there waa too much to
do to waste time. He got up and
began to take exercise like a baseball
pitcher. Then he ran off to get a
match for his mother when she de
cided to light the fire. He came back
with It, Btruck It and put It under
the wood himself. Mrs. Moore said
he had always wanted to do things
for himself. He could already put on
some of his little garments. She
thought all mothers should teach their
children to do the same thing early.
"Now, here’s a recipe for a grape
fruit salad which Davis Willet’s fath
er likes very much," finished Mrs.
Moore. ‘It's not for pure food chil
dren—just for people who like good
things to eat.”
Buster, liking music with his meals,
was trying the piano.
"You take two grape fruit,” di
rected his mother “and three oranges.
Also a small can of sliced pineapple
one-half cup of sugar, one and a half
cups of pineapple Juice, two plmen-
toes, one and a half boxes of gela
tine and two teaspoons of the pimento

The Way to Fix the Salad.
"Prepare your oranges and gTape

them into small pieces, leaving out
the tough Inside linings. Your pine
apples and plmentoes need only to
be cut Into small bits. Then soak
the gelatine In a cup of water for

tracting It have been added to the

Mr. Holmes has just returned from

NO TRUST BUSTING YET;

WASHINGTON, April 19.—The In
terstate Commerce Committee of the
Senate will not press anti-trust leg
islation until the beginning of the
regular session next December. Then
a bill will be framed and pressed for
the third great measure to which
Democracy has pledged itself. Sen
ator Newlands will urge the creation
of an Interstate trade commission ro
take over the enforcement of all la ws
affecting corporatlona
on lettuce leaves, with mayonnaise
In the center.”
Buster, for whom the subject of
grape fruit salad was a bore, seeing
that he could not put his thumb in it
and pull out a plum of any sort, had
departed to his nurse, disgusted.
"The care of children Is not the
nurse's work—It’s mine,” declared
Mrs. Moore, remarking Buster's desti
nation. “My nurse to me is only an
assistant. 1 never expect to have a
governess to tell my children Btories
and things—TO do that myself. I have
thought often I’d lfke to do charity
work, but not so long as I have chil
dren to raise. I am not very strong,
and I couldn’t do both without shirk
ing one or the other. And I don’t
like half-ways.”
A laugh from Buster far down the
hall as the reporter was leaving in
dicated that he was having the time
of bis young life.
