The Anemia of Hook Worm Disease.

A practitioner in Virginia reports: "I am very fond of Pepto-Mangan (Gude) in cases of anemia and chlorosis. It acts splendidly in hook worm cases after the worms have been removed with thymol, bringing the color back to the patient's face and ears in a much shorter time than any other preparation."
