"One of the largest producers ha

American motion picture was blamed
for the troubles of American mis

from the women's board for foreign
missions presented here today to the
annual session of the Presbyterian
synods of Arizona and California.
The report declared the natives of
Canton, Shanghai, Tokio, Calcutta.

all American men are "barbaric
savages," who gamble for a living,
drink whisky like water, carry two
guns and a bowie knife, and kill
their fellow men as a pastime; that
American women are dance hall
girls, who smoke cigarets, drink
heavily and "sell themselves for a
coin or a smile."
Autoists Jump to Safety
When Train Strikes Car
Brookings, S. D., July 25. (Spe
cial.) Mr. and Mrs. J. V. Lane and
two children of this city had a mir
aculous escape from- death when their
car was struck by a passenger train
at a crossing west of the city. Be
cause of high weeds near the crossing-
the autoists were unaware of the
approaching train until they were
squarely on the crossing. Then the
engine of the car stalled and the oc
cupants barely had time to jump from
the auto before it was struck bv the
locomotive. The car was carried a
short distance on the pilot and then
hurled into a deep ditch beside the
track, almost a complete wreck.

LEPROSY'S BAD NAME.
A request comes for an article on
leprosy.
The request is timely, because of
several reasons.
Congress is being asked to make
larger provision for the care of
lepers.
' An effective remedy against, and
possibly a cure, for leprosy has been
found and, finally, it is in the air
for society to be more kindly to the
leper than it has been since the days
when the Bible was written.
Leprosy is due to a bacillus which,
in some way, is a kinsman of the
tubercle bacillus. This bacillus at
tacks most any of the tissues, but it
has an especial fondness for the
skin and nerve tissues.
It is only mildly contagious. The
very bad reputation for contagious
ness is due to Bible stories, for
which there are two possible ex
planations. A few thousand years ago, leprosy
may have been very contagious.
Many diseases are known to have
radically changed their character
istics, and, especially their character
to infect, in less than 2,000 years. In
the time of Michael Angelo and
Benvenuto Cellini, syphilis was as
contagious as smallpox now is.
Another explanation of the in
correctness of the Bible stories of
leprosy, when used as a present day
guide, is that the Holy Writ called
many different diseases, some of
which were highly contagious, by
the name of leprosy about the only
widely known contagious skin di
sease in that day.
The Bible is not supposed to be a
treatise on pathology.
The treatment for the disease is
Chalmangroo oil. Recently discover-,
ed methods of purifying the oil have
resulted in products' which are much
more effective against the disease
and much less trying on the patient.
In Hawaii, most of the patients
are receiving this treatment, and
there is no question as to the good
it is doing.
In the Philippine islands 5,000
lepers have been gathered together
on Culion island, and of these 3,900
are under treatment.
In all probability there are 1,200
lepers in continental United States.
If the wild, unreasoning fear of lep
ers could be overcome, and if phy
sicians could learn better how to
diagnose it, we might find that there
were at least twice that many.
Our fear of leprosy has been so
great that, as a practical result, the
lepers have been and still are going
in and out among us, unhindered,
eating at our tables and serving our
food.
You see, we are so afraid of lepers
that we will not have them as diag
nosed cases in colonies in one state,
but we have them as undiagnosed
cases in our towns and even in our
households. Queer, folk, we are.
A few years ago the United States
bought the Louisiana State colony
at Carville. 1 hey now have 200
cases there. If they bnly had a bouse
large enough, and beds enough, they
could have 1,000 there, and that
would be all the lepers in the United
States that are in the contagious
stage, if not more.
Albert says that no leper is con
tagious unless his lesions . are dis
charging, and only about one-twentieth
of them have discharging le
sions.. His contention is that lepers
with no ulceration can be safely left
to come and go as they please.
In Norway, the policy of gather
ing into colonies all the cases of

leprosy, keeping them comfortable,
and giving them the best possible
treatment at the hands of the most
experienced physicians, has reduced
the prevalence of the disease more
than half.
The policy of providing good care,
and of giving the best treatment in
proper colonies, is working in Ha
waii and the Philippines. The af
flicted arc showing a willingness to
go into the colony in the early stages.
A disposition on the part of the com.
munity to be fair to' the leper, to
allow him the fullest liberty compat
ible with safety, providing plenty of
beds at Carville, and giving him the
latest and best treatment these will
cause lepers to seek diagnosis and
treatment early, and will bring the
liscase well under control in a gen
eration. Tonic Two Fine Ones.
W. F. S. writes: "Please prescribe
a- good tonic for the blood poor
blood, usually characterized by 'fever
blisters,' and occasional boils." '
REPLY,

of the Emporia Gazette, who took
down his sign Saturday, following

charge, said he would not continue
