Consumption Steadily Declining.

Medical statistics from various parts Of
the country, notably from New England,
show that consumption has greatly de-
clncd within twenty-eSpecially within
ten-years and that it is still steadily de-
clning. This IS largely due, no doubt,
TO the better understanding of health
laws and obedience thereto. Forty or
fifty years ago New England was fairly
ravaged by consumption. Whole fami-
lies died of it, and hardly family could
he found in which somo member or men,
bcrs hatl not been lost from that cause.
Early pUritanism had contributed in
directly 10 this. Its tenets were of n most
gloomy and unnatural character. Pleas
uro and physical comfort of every kind
were TO be avoided as sinful. True relig-
ion was to be deprived of something
necdful or desired. Happiness in the next
world was to be gained by wrctchednesS
in this. Hygienic laws corrcspOnded to
the thcologic doctrines. \ man to be
healthy should rise from the table hungry,
80 to bed before he was sleepy, and get
up while he was still sleepy. lie should
lodge i'm a cold room and seldom eat what
his appetite craved.
such habits, pursued year after year,
impoverished the blood and broke down
the constitution, necessarily. The region
was sterile, the climate severe, the daily
labor cXhaustinC, and these facts, added
20 the privations, were little less than
deadly. No wonder consumption slew
lis thousands and tens of thousands an
uually. All that has been changed. Peo-
?le believe nowadays in living comfort
ably; they have found out that it is the
way Of nature, and therefore of reason.
Consequently health IS better and con-
sumption has greatly diminished. They
take a deal more outdoor exercise than
they used to, and they follow enlightened
hyCieuic laws. Science has come TO their
aid. They are better because they are
wiser, and they are wiser because they
are better New York Commercial Adj
