COnsumptiOn.

Interesting statistics gathered by a
prominent English physician indicate
that consumption is very greatly pro-
noted by damp soil, and its presence
has been abated, even to the extent of
30 per cent, where suitable drainage has
been introduced. Researches of other
physicians, including the well.known
DIR. Bowditch OF Massachusetts, confirm
this conclusion and determine that the
amount of moisture in the soil is fair
criterion of the proportion of consump-
ton among the residents. Local causes
are becoming more and more disregard,
and the infectious nature of consump-
ton is receiving increased attention
from physicians.-Good Housekeeping.
