General Vaccination Would Entirely
Eliminate it, Says Georgia
Board of Heaith.
Atlanta, Ga.—(Special.)—Smallpox
one of the most contagious as well as
unnecessary diseases, may be easily
eradicated from Georgia as well as
any other state, says the Georgia
State Board of Health, by the simple
process of vaccination; but to accom
plish this result vaccination must be
general, thorough and complete. :
Unfortunately statisties as to small-
Pox in Georgia are lacking; they are
kept only by one or two of the larger
cities. But in 1910, thirty-six states
reported 30,362 cases with 415 deaths,
showing a marked increase over the
preceding year both in number and
death rate. Taking the states around
Georgia, Florida with 1,286 cases and
12 deaths, showed a marked increase;
Tennessee’s report of 2,199 cases was
incomplete; North Cardlina reported
4,281 cases, while there were no re
ports from South Carolina, Alabama
or QGeorgia.
Prevalence of small-pox in Georgia
is not questioned; little is said of it
except when it becomes epidemic or
semi-epidemic in a particular locality;
then a vaccination crusade is started,
but often too late to protect many of
the victims.
Small-pox is one of the oldest of
epidemic diseases. There are refer
ences to it dating back 1,000 years
before the Christian era. In Europe,
in the middle ages, its death roll
would run as high as 600,000 in a sin
gle year. It was brought to America
early in the seventeenth century, and
has been more or less prevalent here
ever since.
Small-pox is considered unquestion
ably a germ disease, but the germ is
one about whi¢h sclentitsts as yet
«how nothing. What they do know,
however, beyond all question, is how
to prevent it. Nearly everyone ex
posed to it who is not protected by
vaccination or who has not had the
disease at some previous time, will
contract it. It may be gotien by di
rect contact, such as shaking hands
with one wno has It, or indircctly by
sleeping in a bed which has been oc
cupled by a small-pox patient, There
is reason to believe even more remote
contagion may take place. Every
case of it comes from some other
case, either directly or indirectly.
Ten days, two weeks or even a
longer time may pass before the
symptoms deveiope. Then comes a
severe chill followed by a rapidly dis
ng fever and severe aching pains in
the back, joints or head. After a
couple of days of fever, rash appears
usually -first on the forehead, and the
fever subsides. The rash, at first
pink or reddish splotches, smooth and
flat, developes in a few hours into
little hard rounded bumps under the
skin. These spread over the entire
body, developing blisters as they
grow. The patient again developes a
fever, and the blisters, filled first with
a clear fluid, become filled with cor
ruption. The patient presents a hor
rible picture. The skin is covered
with a mass of pus, the eyes are clos
ed by the swelling and the diseased
flesh gives forth a horrible odor.. Af
ter about twelve days the eruption
begins to heal, the blisters dry up and
finally the skin is covered with fine
scales from the top of the eruption
which are believed to contain the con
tagion of the disease. The patient is
contagious until all the pustules have
dried up and scaled off and the skin
over them is smooth. Sometimes
great pits are left in the skin which
disfigures the patient for life.
The disease in the United States,
of late years, has been of the milder
type, said by some to be due to the
less virulent strain of the infection.
Notwithstanding this there have bheen
severe outbreaks at various points in
the United States with an exces
sively large mortality, There is ng
guarantee that the next outbreak in
Georgia may not be of the severer
type, exacting heavy death toll.
But mild or not, no one wants
small-pox; no one wants it around
him. An absolute and certain meth
od of prevention has been known for
more than a century. In 1770 Edward
Jenner, an English physician, heard a
dairymaid say: “I cannot take that
disease because | have had the cow
pox.” Impressed by this statement
he spent a quarter of a century study
ing the problem, announcing his dis
covery in 1798. He inoculated a boy
with cowpox. Six weeks later he in
oculated rim with virulent small-pox
virus, and no ill effects followed: al
though frequeatly inoculated thereaf
ter, the boy never took the disease.
Just in proportion as the practice of
vaccination spread after that date,
the scourge of small-pox diminished.
It was the virus from the cow that
protected the boy; it is the same vi
rus, made under approved sanitary
conditions, that protects those who
are vaccinated today.
That, briefly, is how vaccination
came about; time and tests have
proven its effectiveness and value be
vond all question. In Germany where
every person must be vaccinated,
small-pox has practically disappear
ed. In the same manner small-pox
could be made to disappear from
Georgia, or from the United States,
within three weeks, never to return,
except in imported cases which need
not be quarantined as no one could
contract the disease from them.
Every child should be vaccinated
as soon as possible after about the
third month of life, or sooner after
birth, if small-pox is prevailing in the
neighborhood. At seven years vacci
nation should be repeated and then
revaccination should be practiced
about once in seven years. If the
first two are successful, the subse
quent “takes” will be mild or the wvi
rug will net take at all.
Communities, states, countries
which have practiced this svstem
have effectively erad'cated small pox,
and so Georgia might rid herself of
the disease for all time.

HOW CUSTARDS FOR DESSERTS
MAY BE VARIED.
-
Baked in Individual Cups Is Probably
the Most Popular Form-—Fresh
Grated Cocoanut Flavored
With Orange—Tapioca.
Baked custards in individual cups
will always be a favorite dessert at
simple dinners. One egg yolk and
one tablespoonful of sugar to every
cupful of milk is an excellent rule for
these custards. More yolks than this
makes them “eggy” in flavor and the
whites are not needed. In fact, the
custard is much Dbetter with the
whites, as they will, unless great care
is taken, form in tough strings or rise
to the top in lumps while the custard
is baking. Do not forget to add a tiny
pinch of salt.
For simple custards a little nutmeg
imparts as good a flavor as vanilla or
any of the ordinary extracts. Custards
flavored withk grated orange rind are
delicious. Chocolate grated over the
top just before the dessert i{s put into
the oven is a pleasant addition to cus
tards flavored with vanilla or almond.
The chocolate forms an appetizing
crust over the top, leaving the custard
beneath its original color. :
Custards made with fresh grated co
coanut are delicious, especially if
flavored with grated orange. Lemon
or vanilla may, however, be used.
Butter the custard cups, sprinkle over
the buttered surface as much sugar
as the butter will hold. Then dredge
liberally with cocoanut and pour the
custard into the cups. The measure
of sugar in the cocoanut custard may
be more liberal as the addition of co
coanut increases the bulk.
For a tapioca custard not so many
egg yolks are needed, two cupfuls of
cooked tapioca taking the place of
two of the yolks. Let the tapioca cook
in water until it is transparent, and
use just enough water to prevent its
burning. All a little salt and let it get
cold before using.
Cup custards are made more festive
in appearance if each is decorated on
top with a spoonful of brightly colored
jelly, a candied cherry or a preserved
strawberry and a rosette of whipped
cream. Or, if preferred, cover the top
of each with a meringue. An orange
flavored custard is very nice {f a tiny
spoonful of orange marmalade tops
the merigue.
Baked custard has a peculiarly deli
cate flavor which boiled custard does
not possess. Spoonfuls of it often
make a more delicious accompaniment
to desserts than a boiled custard
sauce. 'lt is especially good with
fruit tarts or a dish of fresh berries
or other summer frults.—New York
Tribune.
Spiced Peaches.
Four pounds of peaches, one cupful
of vinegar, one tablespoonful of c¢inna
mon, one tablespoonful of cloves,
three pounds of brown sugar, one tea
spoonful of ginger, one teaspoonful of
red pepper. Boil the sugar and the
vinegar. Scald the peaches, remove
the skins and cook in the syrup. Tie
spices in a bag and cook with the
peaches. When the peaches are ten
der, pour into stone jars, reheat the
syrup every day for a week, pouring
when hoiling over the peaches. All
kinds of small fruits may be spiced
in this manner.
Experienced Cooks Say.
lemon juice and powdered sugar
are delicious with feathery wheat pan
cakes. It is said that the kaiger is
especially attached to this dish.
When baking potatoes, rub dry
and grease. This causes the outer
gkin to peel off very thin, thus saving
the most nourishing part.
String bean salad is good. Like all
salad ingredients, the beans should
be very cold. Marinate them, after
drying and chilling, with French dress
ing and place on a bed of lettuce
»aves. Egg quarters or slices gar
nish.
Mahogany Cake.
Mix together three eggs, well
beaten; half cup of butter, 1% cups of
sugar, half cup of sweet milk in which
have been dissolved one teaspoonful
of soda, and two cups of flour; cook
half cup of chocolate in half cup of
milk and add last, flavoring with va
nilla. Bake in layers and put together
with caramel filling.
Caramel Filling—Stir together one,
cup of sugar and half a cup of milk,
place on the stove and boil until stiff
enough to spread, and flavor with va
nilla. ‘
Grease Staine,
It i 8 sometimes difficult to keep the
kitchen paper free of grease stains.
Grease staine disappear entirely if a
mixture of pipe clay and water, made
the consistency of a c¢ream, is spread
over them and allowed to remain over
night. In the morning it should be
removed with a clean brush.
Asparagus With Cream, !
A delicious variation for asparagus
is to bake it In a cream sauce. Cook
in salted water until tender, drain,
put in a butter baking dish and pour
enough cream. sauce over to cover,
Sprinkle with grated Swiss or Parme
san cheese, and a few bits of butter
and brown in the oven. ‘

Cleaning Silver Laces. {
To clean silver or gold laces or
braids when they have become tar
nished, apply spirits of wine with a
soft flannel cloth.

J.R. BRUMBY Jr. HAS BUILT
EXCELLENT NEW GARAGE.
Mr. J. R. Brumby Jr., has built a
new garage on Church street that is
as perfectly aranged as a building
could be made for the purpose. The
storage room is located on the ground
floor on an exact level with the gide
walk and has a concrete floor. In the
rear of the building in a large con
crete sink larger than the largest
motor truck where cars are washed.
A large elevator taht will accommo
date any automobile is also located
on the cutside of the building in the
rear where the cars are taken up to
the machine shop, which is located on
the second floor. This arrangement
leaves the mechanics where they are
not bothered by visitors. The office is
conveniently located on the stairs
midway between the two floors and
convenient to both patrons and work
mern.
