ANDERSON IA NS AND KAUH'M, Mrs. S. Mookley anti Thus. O. Wal ton Have Been Treated. (Anderson 1 ntelllgencer. ) While the entire country is talking of the wonderful results that are be ing obtained from the use of radium In the treatment of a number of skin diseases, it will be interesting in this section to know of the experience of people from Anderson who have been to Baltimore and who have had the treatment administered. Mrs. S. Bleckley, one of Ander son's moat lovable women, is just hf:ck from m.r third trip to Balti more, where she took the radium treatment for the disease of her face. This was the third time that Mrs. Bleckley had undergone the applica tion of tlie radium, and it is said by her physicians and members of her family that there seems to be a de cided improvement in her condition It is. however, difficult to say in just what measure she has been im proved, since the patient is always very weak for some time after the treatment is administered, and so it will hardly be possible to tell just what the effect-of the last treatment administered will be. When Mrs. Bleckley first entered Dr. Kelly's sanitarium in Baltimore for the radium treatment she was given a 24-hour application, which left her very weak. It seemed that the substance had almost sapped her vitality, and she was some time in recovering from tho effects of this. The second time she was treated for fourteen hours, and on the third trip the application was only for one hour and a half. Radium is a mineral substance, coming in small grains like sand. As readers of the newspapers know, it is a very rare substance, and the cost of it is hardly less than fabulous. In administering the treatment the physicians first palee the precious grains In a small tubing, then in a lead-covered tubing, and\ then a small bundle, like a pillow, is made of cotton and the tithe is wrapped up. This is then applied to the portion of the body affected and which is to be treated. The results obtained are due to the violet rays emenated from the substance. One feature of the radium treatment is the fact that af ter a patient lias been treated the same tubing will suffice for countless other?, .-.ince its efficacy by repeated use ls not lost. The application of the radium at the time is not painful, but after the patient has finished with the actual application the pain experienced from the burns and blisters is sai ; to be most acute, and many suffer terribly from the after-effects. Mrs. Bleckley, who is 74 years o.' age, is one of the two oldt?t patten's ever subjected to the radium treat ment. She and a gentleman from Iowa, considerably older than the Anderson lady, hold the record for older people being treated, hospital auf.? ritles saying that for the most pan the patients who come to he treated are younger people. A pic ture of Mrs. Bleckley hangs in tho Baltimore institution to show what has been accomplished by the use of ra diu m. Some time is necessary to build up the system after thc treatment is given, and it is, therefore, still un certain as to what benefit Mrs. Bleck ley will derive from her last visit to Dr. Kelly's institution.
