'aptain of the men of death
Pneumonia is a disease which strikes swiftly and proceeds quickly and dramatically to a crisis. I ntil recent years little could he done to help the patient. The brief decisive struggle between the infection and the patient earned for pneumonia the dreadful title, ''Captain of the men of death,’! In the parlance of the army, the captain has been "busted." First came antipneumococcic serum, which removed one bar. Later, powerful sulfa drugs and. more recently, penicillin teamed up with serum to break the captain completely. All of these powerful weapons are kept in readiness in our prescription department, waiting only for the physician’s order.
