IN late number of the Scalpel. in an at
tack on "Dict," assumes that the ssuse of
oil would decrease the victims of consump-

secret Of the use of cod liver oil. The
following is a summary Of observations
made on this subject by Dr. Hooker:
/. Of all the persons between the ages
Of fifteen and twenty two years, more :han
onc-tifth cannot eat fat meat.
,. or persons at the age of forty-fivc,
all excepting less than cue in ffv. habit
ually use fat meat
>. OF persons who, between the aces
Of fifteen and twenty-five, avoid fat meat,
a few acquire an appetite for it, and live
to a good old age while the greater p1r-
ton die Of phthisis before thirty-fvc.
+. OF persons dying with phtLisis be-
tween the ages Of twelve and fortv.live
niue-tentbs, at least, have never used fst
meat
Most individuals now avoid fat meat.

many compensate for this want, in p7rt
