Counterac.l'ia the alarm felt at the rapid ont.d of infantile paraly sis toward the Pacific coast is the in formation from New York that the newly-discovered serum to check the dreaded disease is showing encour aging results. With Montana already infected with this terrible malady, it is not at all impossible or impractical that Oregon or tho Grande Rondo valley for that matter might some day feel the sting of infantile paraly sis; on the other hand now that New York doctors have found a serum of effectiveness, much of the alarm for the future is reduced. The current edition of the New York World deals with this serum question in the following words: Thirty-two ounces of blood enough to make a pint of precious serum was taken at the Willard Parker hospital yesterday from the veins of six persons who called in re sponse to The World's appeal to form er victims of infantile paralysis who wish to aid present and future suffer ers. By tomorrow the serum derived from this blood will be ready for use in treating sixteen babies, or from eight to twelve older children, half of whom will become permanent crip ples unless this treatment saves them. Fourteen children were treated yes terday with scrum derived from the blood of those who responded to the appeal on Monday or Tuesday. It is too early yet to determine what the results are going to be, but so far as they could be judged in a single day they were favorable. i More significant are the results ob tained in a group of six cases that have been under treatment three days. Three of these patients were not par alyzed when the treatments began, and much to the satisfaction of the physicians, two of them continue in that condition, though the time at which paralysis might be expected to set in is past. In fact, one of the two is out bf danger. In the third case, paralysis has appeared. The physi cians believe the serum was admin istered a little too late. The three other patients were paralyzed at the time of treatment. They seem to be improving. Of the six volunteers who respond ed yesterday, only two would permit their names to be published. One of them was Miss Amy Olidort, the fourteen-year-old daughter of the Vice President of the People's hospital. She had the disease in infancy and when she heard there was a chance to help some child younger than herself she told hor parents that she wanted to give some of her blood. She called at the Willard Parker with her family physician and seemed not to mind her experience in the least. Another who responded to yester day's appeal was Miss Grace M. Lytle of No. 607 Fifth avenue, who hnd suf fered from poliomyeltis nine years ago. She bravely watched eight ounces of blood flow from her veins. Another, who insisted that his name be kept secret, is a student in a uni versity. A fourth is a member of an old and wealthy New York family. The student was not very strong and gave but three ounces. The other man gave eight. He told Dr. Zingher he would try to raise a fund with which blood might be bought from those not willing to give it on any other basis. ' New Yorkers were not the only ones who responded to the call. By letter and telephone came messages from New Jersey residents who want ed to make the sacrifice. A letter from Washington offered the blood of a comparatively recent sufferer from the disease. In the last named case DRINK HOT WATER BEFORE BREAKFAST Says you really feel clean, sweet - and fresh inside, and. are seldom ill. II you are nccustomed to wake up with a coated tongue, foul breath or a dull, dizzy headache; or. If your meals sour and turn into gas and acids, you have a res surprise await ing you. To-morrow morning, immediately upon arising, drink a glass of hot water with a toaspoonful of limestone phosphate In it. This Is intended to first neutralize and then wash out of your Btomach, liver, kidneys and thirty feet of intestines all the Indi gestible waste, poisons, sour bilo and toxins, thus cleansing, Bweetenlng and purifying the entire alimentary canal. Those subject to sick headaches, backache, bilious attacks, constipation or any form of stomach trouble, arc urged to get a quarter pound of lime stone phosphate from the drug store and begin enjoying this morning inside-bath. It is said that men and women who try this becomo rnthu slastlc nnd koep it up dally. It is a splendid health measure for it is more important to keep clean and pure on tho inside than on the outBido, because the skin pores do not absorb Impuri ties into the blood, causing disease, while the bowel pores do. The principle of bathing Inside ia not new, as millions of people practice it. Just as hot water and soap cleanse, purify and frcsheD the skin, so hot water and a teaspoonful of limestone piiospbate ait on the Btomach, liver, kidneys and bowels, l.imestono pbos phato Is an Inexpensive white powder and almost tasteless, arrangements will be made to have the blood drawn there and sentvhere. Already a new use for the serum has suggested itself. This is in the case of children who are exposed be cause their brothers or sisters have the disease, dn hundreds of instances in the present epidemic the disease has swept through whole families be cause there was no means of preven tion. There are scientific reasons for believing the serum may hold the power of preventing an exposed child from becoming a victim. It is being tried cautiously along these lines. Three children whose brothers and sisters are ill were inoculated yester- uay. Arrangements are also being made to place the serum in the hands of skilled field workers, who will at once inject the serum into the spinal canals of patients in whom the paralysis has not set in. Removal to contagious disease hospitals will follow. After the mayor's advisory com mittee yesterday had approved the de cision to delay the opening of the city schools, it was decided to postpone announcement of the exact date on which they will be opened. Repre sentatives of the parochial schools said these institutions will remain closed as long as do the public schools, which means that fully 1, 000,000 children will have at least a month added to their vacations.
