io n TIF-ABST’S ST’NPAY AMERICAN, ATLANTA. OA.. SUNDAY, APRIL 20. 1913. Mrs. Copley Thaw In Georgia to Wed Marriage of Harry Thaw's Sister to Geoffrey Whitney Takes Place Tuesday. ~ * TURTLEVAGGINt 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.

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. PRIMITIVE INDIAN TOOLS ADDED TO U. S. MUSEUM 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.

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 Juice. The Way to Fix the Salad. "Prepare your oranges and gTape fruit by peeling them and pulling 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 five minutes. Mix your pineapple Juice and sugar together, and let the mixture come to a boll. Then dis solve the gelatine In It. Add one pint of boiling water and let it cook for a few minutes. Then mix In your fruit and plmentoes. and let It con geal In a ring mold. Serve the salad WASHINGTON. D. C., April 19, Mica from old Indian mines in North Carolina and other 8outhem States and a number of the crude imple ments which the Indians used In ex tracting It have been added to the extensive collection of Indian relics, the largest in the world, already made for the National Museum by Dr. Wil liam H.

NO TRUST BUSTING YET; MUST WAIT TILL WINTER 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.
