DIET IS IMPORTANT
IN PELLAGRA CASES
Disease Spreading In Many
Sections and State Officer
Issues Statement
There is quite a serious out
break of pellagra around
Jonesboro and in other sections
of Craighead county, accord
ing to a report just issued
from the office of Dr. C. W.
Garrison, state health officer,
at Little Rock.
“Pellagra is due solely to an
improper or unbalanced diet.”
said Dr. Garrison, in explain
ing findings of investigations
recently conducted by himself
and Dr. Joseph Goldberger,
noted surgeon, with the United
States public health service.
The disease is non-communi
cable and there is no danger
of taking it by contact with
persons suffering from the dis
ease. This conclusion is con
curred in by an emphatic
statement by Dr. Goldberger.
“The Arkansas Board of
Health does not hold that it is
communicable and the only re
striction concerning it is that
children so affected shall not
attend school, and this is done
largely from a hygenic point of I
view.
Dr. Goldberger claims tnat
his experiments tend to show
that all that is necessary to
bring about recovery of pel
lagra is to correct diet.
“Dr. Goldberger says it is
due to improper diet, but not
necessarily to an improper diet
of starchy foods. Of course a
diet of starchy foods could
cause it just as well as any
other unbalanced or improper
diet, but starchy foods are not
the only cause of pellagra.”
Dr. Garrison advocates large
quantities af fresh milk for
pellagra patients, the milk to
be fresh milk or buttermilk.
Fresh peas, beans, eggs, meat,
bread and butter, as the prin
cipal diet, is worthy of receom
mendation according to Dr.
Garrison. Vegetables and
fruits should be administered
from time to time.
“Many doctors and medicine
companies from various sec
tions of the country are ad
vertising they can cure the dis
ease with medicine, but none
has any treatment that is not
known to the medical profes
sion. and the public, especially
those suffering from pellagra.
And that no physiean or med
icine company offers more j
than a curative remedy or pro
phylactic measure, is set forth
in the bulletin issued by the i
public health service at Wash
ington anil written by Dr.Gold
berger.
Some physicians seemingly j
have good results with on >
drug, while others cl aim they
have no success with the same
d»*u.'-\ hut are able to cure
pellagra with a still different
drug. The experiences of the
United States public health
service and the Arkansas State
board of health lead to the
conclusion that a remedy that
is beneficial to one may not be
beneficial to another, but the
entire medicai protession is ag
reed that a proper diet is essen
tial and good results will fol
low its correction in almst ev
ery case if the diagnosis is
made early, and no physician
is successful in the treatment
of many cases with the admin
istrtion of any drug or drugs
ulness the diet isc orrected.

letin may be obtained by ad
dressing Ruert Blue, Surgeon
General, at Washington, 1). C.”

YOUR HEALTH
Dont Endanger it With
Galomel
It is generally agreed by ex
perts in this country and Eu
rope that calomel has a very
violent effect on the system.
This accounts for the familiar
disagreeable feeling accom
panying a dose and the weak
ened condition following it.
Liv-ver-lax is a harmless veg
etable compound, that is mild,
but effective substitute for cal
omel. It has all the effective
ness. but not the effect, of cal
omel. Its splendid value has
brought it into such wide use i
that in some states it has al
jmost entirely replaced calo
mel.
Just try L:v-ver-!a.x once,and
you'll never use calomel again.
Insist on the genuine, bearing
the likeness and signature of

anteed to give satisfaction or
