The letter from Dr. Linville is as folOews: \\ e have just recently com pleted our reports for the past sly months’ work connected with this hospital and in ii I find some .-tali.-tics till at I think may he of set vice to you in your work. We had on an average of 1074 pa tients in the 'hospital and admit ted, during the six months, 207 patients with 154 deaths. Of this 267 patients admitted 59 patients' insanity was traceable directly to pellagra and 78 of these their in sanity was traceable to syphilis. Our previous records show that we had, as a rule, eight to ten female patients to one male ad mitted with pellagra, tout this re port shows that there were prac tically as many male patients ad mitted with pellagra as female, ami of the r.9 patients who died from this disease 29 of them were male and 30 female. “Our results from treating pel lagra patients for the past six months have been very un satis CALL ’PHONE 130 —Dry Cleaning —Pressing —Altering SMITHFIELD DRY CLEANING COMPANY “Doug” Driver Special Sale of Men’s Clothing We have picked from our stock of men and young men’s suits 100 suits now on sale at price.

The cases brought here are in a more severe form than we have ever had before. We are trying to enrich our- diet for pel lagra patients ail the time and jhfipe to continue to do so. I feel i -bat the Governor’s program of L:ve at Heme, if abided by by the people, especially in eastern North Carolina, "will be far-reaching in its effect on this class of patients. “Our death rate from tubercu losis for the past six months has "K'c n on the increase.” The State Board of Health knows enough of pellagra to he in position to advise that it is not ron-fomed to the cotton mill vil lages and the people who work in mills. It is in every section of the •tale. It is increasing by leaps '.nd bounds and it has already :*ome to be of such serious, eco nomic import that industry i-s be ng emphatically affected by it— most particularly, lagrieuilturo.

Vicks goes direct to the affected parts and checks the cold in two ways — its medicated vapors, re leased by the heat of the body, are inhaled direct to the inflamed air passages; at the same time it acts direct through the skin like a poul tice or plaster, “drawing out” tight ness and soreness. Vicks is especially appreciated by mothers because it is just rubbed on, and therefore, cannot upset children’s delicate stomachs as “dos ing” is so apt to do. Today the whole trend of medical practice is awayr from needless “dosing." To keep pace with the ever-grow ing demand, the famous slogan, “17 Million Jars Used Yearly,” was raised to “21 Million” a short time ago. This figure too has been out- , grown, as there are now “Over 26 Million Jars Used Yearly”—a jar for every family in the United States. ! bership we have ever had’ at th is ■time of year.
