IMPORTANT COMMUNICATION.
PswRiMta I aOsstroet Disease ki
Esch Css SheuM k Carsfallf 6arsst
Frsai FsHhsr IstscUss.- , .g'
It is an acute infectious, eontageous,
systemic disease as diptheria, measles.
ete , with characteristic weal diseases
of the lungs. It is caused by a micro
organism, the pneumonia which enters
the system through the respiratory
tract and blood current and produces a
general disease with local manifesta
tions. Pneumonia destroys more lives
than any known disease. In the United
States alone according to reliablle stat
istics one person falls a victim to this
malady every five (5) minutes and it is
increasing in fatality and prevaiencs
every year, during the last decade it
has increased consump nn 5 per cent
while tuberculose has decreased 40 per
cent.
Considering the ravages this malady
is working among all classes and es.
pecially right now when the wholecoun
try is permeated with it, and in our own
immediate section, we are having in
certain localities, almost art epidemic,
I have thought, it would be of interest
as well as benefiicial to the public, to
know something of the nature of this
disease in as concise and clear way as
space will allow.
The germ which is in the atmosphere
isinhaled into the lungs, it enters the
blood, current by the bronchial arteries
which alone furnish nutriment to the
lunirs and it follows the current until
it reaches the smaller vessels, the
capillaries where it becomes lodged or
clogs the capillary entirely, it then be
comes an irritant and the congestion
;ind general inflammation sets in caus
ing the consolidation of the lung tis
sue. As the inflammation progresses in
violence according to the pneumococi
(jjernis) these germs eliminate or manu
fact ure a toxin or poison that is absorb
ed by the general circulation producing
speirt denoted chills, fever and all symp
tonus of toxaemic poisoning.
There are several varieties of pneu
monia and t hey require dilferent modef
of treatment, lie the main point 1
wish to emphasize is prophylapsor pre
vention. A patient with this disease
slu.uld, as soon as suspected, beinsolat
i d and the room well ventilated and
kept at a uniform temperature or 68 or
i- degrees and a clean cloth should be
used to exneetoratc in and burned as
soon as used, or a cuspidor furnished
prrtially. filled with an antiseptic solu
tion lit' carbolic aeid, for maldchyde tr
chloride of mercury. Everything of no
special use vn.'.tt, pictures, -curtains,
chairs should he removed from the
room. The patient should be kept as
comfortable as possible and not allowed
to lie in one position too long, as that
tends to increase the congestion of tlu
lungs. The mouth should be frequent
ly , rinsed with an anti-septic solu
tion. There should be no visiting of the pa
tient for this dis a ;e can be carried in
the clothing, as I have recently had
demonstrated clearly to my mind. Only
a few miles from this city a young mai.
was taken suddenly ill with pneumonia,
and, as is the cusl im especially in the
county a good many of his friends came
to sit tip with him and from that case
within a radius of one mile I had eight
cases of pnt umonia that could bo traced
directly to the first case.
The treatment of pneumonia varies
according to the variety or part of the
lunu elected and the amount of toxin
absorbed in the system, but I will rot
no into tho details for want of space
hut will only mention the coal tar de
rivatives to condemn them. If the
temorature does not go qbove 102 de
crees, the patient can take care of her
self but should it go above 102 or as
hiph as 105 degrees the cold pack to
the chest is decidedly the beat remedy
to decrease tho temperature, as it also
stimulates the patient and soothes the
whole nervous system.
The object of tho treatment is to coun
teract the toxino poisoning in the blood
snd the system should be well support
id with nourishment and stimulants
and I would say that I have found
strychnine to be a very satisfactory
stimulant.
In the last year or two a pneumococ
cal serum has been discovered which
has not bwn thorourhlv aaUafactorv
it,,, i ,u , . winL , aL ::r.Tr i:
in dintneri. and tetanus w. .ill h. J
smim treatment that will yield the
same results.
Death from pneumonia is due to the
direct cause of rmeumococcus activity,
and toxins am not to mechanical ob
structions is it was thought to be under
th old thmry of ph logos ia of inflamma
tion. This la an Important fact as It
contradicts a theory which has been
long held in regard to treatment which
s danvrmu and fallacious.
I would advise all persons taken sud
denly 111 with pain inside, with chill and
cough snd fever, to consult thdr phy-
wian at the earliest moment and keep
n mind all the time pneumonia is con-
lagioos and la many rases of the dia-
e It spparenUy teems cured, only s
alijht rough remaining. It is of tea
tHe beginning of tubemloaia.
'The object of this ankle is slmntr to
itiprew upon the puttie generally the
danger of tbkdUeaet and the tmport
tftc of pmpfylap. '

In the early part of each yesi circu
lars are sent out from . the U. S. Engi
neer Office at Wilmington, or from the
sub-office at New Bern, requesting all
parties who have handled any com
merce on any of the navigable waters
of the State to report the character and
quantity of such commerce.
We are informed that a number of
the parties to whom such circulars were
sent this year have not yet replied and
that the figuresysent in by some other
parties are such as to indicate that the
importance of these figuNS is not fully
understood. Some few parties even
take the ground that the business hand
led by them is their own affair and that
the government has no right to pry
into their business.
If the importance of these statistics
were fully understood, these views would
quickly disappear and all patties inter
ested in the improvement of the rivers
and harbors of the State would do all in
their power to assist by submitting a
complete and accurate statement of
their shipments.
These statistics, are of vital impor
tance, because when Congress is asked
to appropriate money for the improve
ment of any stream or harbor, one of
the first questions asked is "How much
commerce would be benefited by such
improvement?"
In fact the appropriation of money
for the improvement of a waterway or
harbor should depend on only three
things. First, the cost; second, the
jost of maintenance, and third, tht
amount of commerce to be benefited
And the amount of commerce is judgeo
by the reports submitted every year b
the U. S. Engineer office. Of course,
the imports and exports can be learned
from the Custom House reports, but
the domestic commerce can be learned
only from the Engineer reports.
No one Bhould conclude from this thai
'he thing to do is to make a good show
ng regardless of accuracy. This ten
iency is o (ten displayed and, aside from
the fact that it is dishonest, or rcalh
Joes more harm than good. The onlj
lafe course is for every man to see thai
he makes a complete and accurate re
port of the business he handles o ver thi
watercourse in question. Of course,
absolute accuracy is often impractica
ble, for unfortunately many shippers di.
not keep any record of the materials
(hipped or received, and many vessel
owners keep no record of the materials
transported. But, even in these cases,
i moderately accurate estimate can b
made if the matter is given enough
thought and attention. A farmer often
keeps no record of the number of
pounds of cotton he raises, but he can
generally estimate it with fair accu
racy. And certainly it would be pool
policy for him to report that he had
produced five hundred or a thousand
when everybody knows he produced
less than a hundred.
Our readers are urged to take an ac
tive interest In this matter, so that the
anndal commercial statistics may be ac
tual accurate and reliable statements,
not merely rough guess.
All parties who have not received
blanks on which to report their statis
tics can get them by writing to the U.
S. Engineer Office, New Bern, N. C.

Hers it a Fact
That cannot be impressed too strong
ly upon watch owners. This is It A
ten should receive the attention of
our repair department at least once
year.
There may appear to be nothing par-
" with, still a cleanln.
a o,.rhanling at least once a year
would lengthen the life of a watch
wonderfully.
It ia asking too much of a watch to
expect It to keep true to Its duties If it
is hampered more and more by slowly
accumulating duil and dirt
Besides this taxes the delicate me-
eanisra to exceaa, and certainly short-
UM nf of a watch. A cleaning
and a little oil In the right places will
work wonders.

FIRST STEPS TO SUCCESS
rhey Led Marshall Field from Pittsfield
Mass., to Chicago.
"In 18CG" Bays John Dennis, Jr., in
lis article in the March Everybody's on
"Marshall Field: A Great Mercantile
Genius", when the excitement was
jrent and the beneficent prosperity
prevailing caused universal satisfac
tion, a Massachusetts farmer's boy
joined tfie tide that swept into the
West and was carried as far as Chicago.
Pittsfield he came from, good old
Pittsfield Four years he had been
there at work fh a country store, and
before that in the village school and
academy at Conway, where he was born.
This and no more had been the sum of
his worldly experience. He drifted into
-he wholesale dry-goods house of
Cooley, Wadsworth & Co a busy place
near the river bank and found work
is a salesman clerk they called it
then. The town was full of buyers;
also c f fir ners' boys with all the advan
cages this boy possessed, except three:
i talent for sure observation, a cold,
keen jndgemeut, and an active imagin
ation. The reason the others were
not so provided Js because there is no
combination so rare; as Dr. Johnson
laid of a like marvel, it. not in naj
ture. Other newcomers to Chicago
that year promptly lost their heads in
the mad rush about them ;this youth was
neither deceived nor disturbed. He
was twenty-one years old and knew
many things not taught in Bchoota knew
them or felt them, the results arc
:he same. "
