LEBANON HOSPITAL
UNDER JJARANTINE
State and City Health Officers
Issue Order Because of
Scarlet Fever
Special to The Telegraph
Lebanon, Pa., April 17.—At the di
rection of State Health Commissioner
Samuel G. Dixon, the Good Samaritan
hospital of this city was placed in
quarantine to-day, because of the dis
covery of four cases of scarlet fever
In the institution. Two nurses and
two patients in the public ward were
found to be afflicted with the disease.
The case took on some additionally
sensational aspects when Dr. E. H.
Gingrich, the city health officer, said
that he suspected a minister of hav
ing communicated the disease to the
institution, and coupling this charge
with the insinuation that the minister
had violated quarantine restrictions
himself. While the name of the al
leged offender was not given, it is
stated that the clergyman is a resi
dent of the rural district, and has a
case of scarlet fever at home which
is under quarantine. It was asserted
that the minister not only visited a
parishioner at the hospital a large
number of times while the disease ex
isted in his own home, but had offi
ciated at a public service in the
church. Health authorities of 'the
city took the matter at once to Har
rlsburg, and Dr. Dixon's department
now has an investigation in progress.
The quarantine of the local hospital
created a sensation, especially in view
of the threat that prosecutions are to
follow the incident.

Why Doctors No Longer
Claim to "Cure" People
' A few years ago it was a common
' thing for the family doctor to say, "1
! will cure you In a few days." This
cheerful prophecy often ga.e the pa
| tient new hope and courage, but It is
Ino longer good form. Doctors still
' "cure'' malaria and a few other
1 troubles in which their medicines have
' a direct or "specific" action on the
\lrus ef the disease. In other cases
they simply give supporting medicine
and keep up the strength of the pa
tient until nature effects a cure.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cure chlo
rosis and other trouble due to thin
' blood because the have a specific ac
; tion on the blood, building it up, puri-
I fying and enriching it. This direct
I action on the blood also makes them
j the best supporting and strengthening
medicine. If you are thin and weak,
breathless after slight exertion. If you
have palpitation of the. heart, gas on
the stomach, cold hands and feet, it
you are nervous and easily Irritated
and show other signs of weakened
vitality, try these strengthening pllh
at once and let the rich, red blood
