Treatment of Cholera.

Updated At : 06:27 AM Jul 30, 2016 IST

IN the latest sanitary administration report of Burma, the Sanitary Commissioner points out that it is very probable that cholera infection may be spread by the agency of itinerant vendors of foodstuffs. As regards treatment of cholera we learn that excellent results were obtained in some of the hospitals by the use of the hypertonic saline injections advocated by Lieutenant Colonel Sir Leonard Rogers and by the internal administration of permanganate of potash.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
