RAvAGEs OF CONSUMPTION

Hawaii has more cause to fear con-
sumption than plague. The mystery
which goes with the black death makes
II dreaded as no one breads consump-
ton; yet when we come to count
graves in Hawaii those filed with
tuberculosis victims are perhaps hum
dred where those occupied by the
stricken of bubonic plague cholera and
smallpox are ten. There are no exact
figures, so we must generalize; but ev-
cry one who has paid attention to the
vital statistics of Honolulu during the
past few years must know that we
speak within bounds.
What to do to combat the disease
and to safeguard people who are well,
is a puzZling question. Public opinion
will not permit the compulsory segre-
cation of consumptives nor will it
agree to a quarantine barrier against
them on the routes of travel. Abroad
the authorities see fit to proceed, MAIN
ly, along palliative lines. In Novem-
Der of last year. as we learn in n cur
rent publication, DIR. Claus Hansen, of
Bergen, delivered a lecture before the
Storthing, at Christiania, on the causes
of tuberculosis and the fight against it.
He stated that during the thirty years
of his own experience consumption had
increased in the Bergen district so per
cent. In the year 1896 54.5 per cent. of
all deaths between 10 and 80 years OF
age were caused by tuberculosis, and
statistics show that about 1000 of the
inhabitants of Norway die every year
of this disease In England, he con-
tinued, they have succeeded during the
fftU in FalIninp hu1f
the number of tuberculosis cases, and
physicians attribute this to the in
creasing cleanliness in English home
life and the erection of consumptive
hospitals. The foremost endeavors in
fighting tuberculosis should be to agl-
tate for greater cleanliness in general;
particularly should efforts be directed
against the habit of expectorating.
statistics of consumptive sanator-
iums in Germany show that Go 1-3 per
cent. of the inmates were able to work
the first year after the cure, 60 per
cent. after two years, 45 per cent. after
three. and 80 per cent, after four years.
on an average II is estimated that 20
per cent. Of the patients In sanatoriums
have their ability to work heightened
by one year. The advantages OF public
sanatorlums for consumptiyes are SO
great that the German inyalld-insur-
ance companies erect these institutions
simply for reasons OF economy"

losis Is 10 be sought. we cannot de-

trolled the United States forces. For
ney said the troops were sent there tn
