PATIENTS GIVEN
WORK CURE FOR
MANY AILMENTS
Occupational Therapy Prac
ticed in U. S. Hospitals
With Success.
REACH EXTREME CASES
WASHINGTON. I>. C. - Patients In
forty-five Government hospitals are hav
ing work prescribed for them for cute
tive purposes.
The ward doctor making his round
stops at the bed of a man recovering
from a broken arm:
"A little stiff,” comments the doctor.
“Needs something to loosen you up.”
And he pulls out a large blank, and
checks It in various places so that it
prescribes one hour a day for light
erafts work In the ward, as a therapeutic
measure. f
The blank is turned over to a recon
struction aide, who proceeds diplomatic
ally to find out if the patient has any
interest lit weaving, drawing, basketry,
or wood-carving.
If he is apathetic, she tries to arouse
his interest gradually, without making
him fee! ‘hat he is being forced.
Usually cases of extreme depression
can be reached and benefited by hand
work of some sort or another.
DOCTORS
CONVERTED
At first many doctors m the hospitals
were skeptical of the physical good to
be derived from pounding with a ham
mer or designing a book cover.
But confronted with statVtios from
their own hospitals and seeing the effect
on the patients in their care, the Gov
ernment physicians have nearly all been
converted to a firm believ in occupational
t herapy.
This method of treatment doubtless
r-minds you of the work done In the
Army Hospitals, by reconstruction aides,
and it is an outgrowth of that, though
different in many ways.
The idea started years age. when some
hospitals and similar institutions had
convalescent patients do light work, as
much for a help to the institution as for
the exercise it gave the patient.
Then, some fifteen years before the war.
two or three civilian hospitals obtained
workers who could teach patients handi
crafts to employ their minds, and per
haps keep their muscles from getting
stiff from idleness.
TREATMENT
WAR HERITAGE.
There the matter stayed until during
:he war it became an Institution in the
Army and Navy hospitals aa educational
and reconitruetive work with the idea of
giving mutilated men some new interest
and useful occupation.
But all this time there was no definite
system develot>ed showing the relative
curative values of the different types of
work.
This is being worked out now in the
hospitals of the Public Health Servite.
snd the surgeons in charge say that they
are just beginning to see the possi
bilities of work as therapy.
Adaptation of the work to the indi
vidual is extremely important, accord
ing to Dr. Hugh S. Cumroing. surgeon
general of the Public Health Service.
Unless he is guided In selection of work
the active tubercular patient may be at
tracted by heavier work than is con
sidered to be beneficial, such as car
pentry.
Basket work with large reeds often fits
in well with excitable mental cases.
A simple pattern with no complica
tions of elaborate design or unusual shape
is given them, because the monotony
of weaving round and ronnd without
much need for thought has a Quieting
ffeet.
The active tubercular patient, on the
other hand, is rarely given reed work,
as It requires considerable effort.
But he can make intricate designs in
iafiia basketry, aa this type of work
keeps the mind fully occupied, but does
not require very great exertion on the
rart of the patient.
TO STUDY CASES
IN DETAIL
These are crude classifications, and the
doctor* are well aware of it.
As time goes on, however, they expect
to study the cases in more detail, in
order to know more accurately the value
of motion and effort used in the crafts
and in different kinds of garden work.
Dr. Maddox explains that the cura
tive influence of a suitable occupation is
more often mental than physical.

“It took Trutona only a week to start

past sit weeks, that I've been taking the
Perfect Tonic.” s-tys Mrs. Hannah Woods,
a well-known Indianapolis woman who
lives at 421 West Merrill street.
"I was suffering from after effect* of
influenza,” she continued. “I had such
pains In ray side and chest and I couldn’t
eat anything. I coughed all the time,
often .’oughing until neighbors had even
noticed my serious condition.
”1 had tried everything I heard of. but
nothing seemed to help me until I be

other men at work, as a diversion.
Then he is drawn into the conversa

and in a few days he is at work, and
one of them."
In the year In which the Public Health
.Service has been giving this kins of treat
ment, it has found the effect on morale to
be no small part of the value of tbo
work done.
KX-SOLDIERS
GIVEN CARE.
The Public Health Service has in its
•large all the ex-soldiers who need
reatment for physical disability.
When these men were in the army hos
pitals they were under orders and could
not go home or back to camp until dls
harged by the surgeon.
The men In care of the Public Health
service are civilians and have the right of
ivilians to leave the hospital even
against the doctor's advice (that is, un
they are mental patients).
Some of the men have been leaving
M.oner Ihau they should because they
tiio i of the monotony of hospital life, or
because they thought they could Improve
as rapidly nt home or even at woric.
“Something to do“ in these cases has
proved a valuable first aid toward keep
'ng them contented.
In one hospital, it is reported, where
there were W 2 men, 263 were taking oc
cupational therapy and 121) were not.
Os the 263 only two left the hospital be
fore they were discharged by the medical
officer, while of the other 120, eighty
three either deserted or left the hospital
against the advice of the physicians
Os course, it ts not fair to say from
this that occupational therapy held 263
of these men. or that the eighty three
would have stayed if they had taken it.
But the records sent 1r each week
from the Public Health Service hospitals
tel! an unvarying story of increasing in
terest on the part of the men who have
!t chance to try the work cure.
OTHER HOSPITALS
TO BE COMMANDED.
Over 3,000 patients, or about one-third
of those in forty five Government hos
pitals, are taking occupational therapy
now under the supervision of 250 recon
struction aides, and a few technicians.
There are more Public Health Serv

treatment, because competent aides are
scarce, and the Government !a taking

Mrs. Woods' own story of her relief
Is one that should convince even the
most H>;cptl“al. that Trutona Is no med

recognize occupational therapy as a
major course, and some hospital train
ing schools are giving courses to fit girls
for this sort of work.
The Public Health Service believea that
eventually the work‘cure with competent
aides and simple equipment will be a
part of the plan in every progressive
hospital.
One point which is in a way Important
is the disposal of the articles made by
patients.
According to the present arrangement
In public health hospltala, when a pa
tient makes two articles one is claimed
by the Government and the other' is hla
to sell or to keep. By turning one back
to the hospital to be sold, the workman
pays for the material given him.
The work cure la not primarily com
mercial, yet the sale of some of the
crafts-work Is desirable if only because
of the psychological affect on the pa.-
tients.
A steady market for the hospital work
has not yet been established, though it
! believed that there is a demand for
a good grade of beautiful crafts-work,
and many of the hand-carved boxes,
woven table runners and Indian baskets
made in the hospitals are beautiful.
One connoisseur In Indian relics was
strongly impressed by the excellence of
the raffia baskets copied by patients
from good Indian designs.

KEEP LOOKfNGYOUNG
It’s Easy—ls You Know Dr.
Edwards’ Olive Tablets
The secret of keeping young is to feel
young—to do this you must watch your
liver and bowels—there's no need of
having a sallow complexion—dark rings
under your eyes—pimples—a bilious
look in your lace —dull eyes with no
eparkte. Your doctor will tell you
ninety per cent of all sickness comes
from inactive bowels and liver.
I>r. Edwards, a well-known physician
in Ohio, perfected a vegetable com
pound mixed with olive oil to act on
the liver and bowels, which be gave to
his patients for years.
Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets, the sub
stitute for calomel, are gentle in their
action yet always effective. They bring
about that natural buoyancy which ail
should enjoy by toning up the liver and
clearing the system of impurities.
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets are known
by their olive color. 15c and 30c.
