Excerpt from The Herald of the Golden Age, Vol. 12: April, 1909

We treated infectious diseases 446, viz - Typhoid 281, Influenza 44, Dysentery 38, Measles 34, Tuberculosis 28, Scarlatina I4, Diphtheria 7 Diseases through Uric Acid Poisoning 125, viz: Chronic Rheumatism 65, Rheumatic Fever 27, Lumbago 9, Neuralgia 6, Sciatica 8 Diseases of the Respiratory System 76, viz: Bronchitis 34, Pneu monia 33, Pleurisy 9; Diseases of the Digestive Organs 72, with 15 cases of Appendicitis; Fractures 34, Cancer 28, Burns 19, Eye Diseases 18.

In order to clearly mark the difference of our results in the two periods, I Shall now enumerate the losses through death during the whole time and during the two periods in total numbers and in percentages.

Out of 1435 patients during the whole time we lost 159, or 11 per cent. Out of 793 patients admitted during the first period, we lost 102, or 13 per cent. Out of 642 patients admitted during the second period we lost 57, or 88 per cent.

If we deduct from this total the incurable cases of Tuberculosis - viz., 28 and Cancer 16, which were the cause of 22 deaths in each period, or 44 during the whole time, we get the following results - Out of 1391 patients during the whole time we lost 115, or 82 per cent; out of 771 patients during the first period we lost 80, or io�4 per cent; out of 620 patients during the second period we lost 35, or 56 per cent.

This grand result - viz., the reduction of the mortality rate from 13 per cent to per cent in all cases, and the reduction, after exclusion of the incurables, from per cent to per cent, or to nearly one-half, is principally caused through the extraordinary reduction of the fatalities in typhoid, as the following figures prove. Out of 281 cases of typhoid during the whole time we lost 28, or IO per cent; out of 171 cases of typhoid during the first period we lost 26, or 15 per cent out of 110 cases of typhoid during the second period we lost 2, or 18 per cent.

But I have said that not only typhoid patients, but all the other patients, have shared in the benefits of the new treatment. In order to prove this, I now give the mortality rate of all cases, excepting the typhoids as follows: Out of 1154 cases, excluding typhoids, during the whole time we lost I34, or 117 per cent; out of 622 cases, excluding typhoid, during the first period we lost 79, or 13 per cent; out of 532 cases, excluding typhoid, during the second period we lost 55, or 103 per cent.

We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies.
