TO AVOID CONSUMPTION.
How the Spread of This Disease May
 Be Retarded.


 While consumption cannot be abso lutely prevented It's progress and prev. alence can certainly be arrested by the observance of few simple rules. Some of these are so obvious as to present no difficulty, while others are matters of education. Of the most obvious are the following: The avoidance of the spit ting habit, whether on the street, in the cars, on board ferryboats or excur- sion steamers or in any public place. Unsuspected germs of tuberculosis of ten lie hidden In the matter expectorat- ed, which, when dry, enter the lungs by means of the nostrils or the mouth. If, therefore, any one is obliged to spit, let him do so into his handkerchief. When spittoons are provided in saloons, of fees and elsewhere, let them be well cleansed and disinfected at least once a day.
 Let care be taken to have all work shops, stores and all establishments where work of any sort is done by day or by night ventilated thoroughly and swept daily and the dust frequently laid during the day by sprinkling with clean water into which some disin- fectant should be poured. Let the cell ings, walls and all the woodwork be kept we'll dusted and the floors, sur bases, etc, scrubbed and disinfected at least once a week. Disinfectants are cheap, and for the above purposes one of the most effective and most easily procurable Is solution of chloride of lime.
 In private houses the same process should be gone through at frequent in- tervals; all the bedding, pillows, etc, should get as much airing and sunlight as possible, the rugs and carpets should be swept every day and the mats well shaken or beaten every morning, but not in such a way as to scatter the dust round the neighborhood. The carpets should be taken up and beaten at least twice a year, and all should be subject ed to constant light sprinkling with some disinfectant that will not take out the color nor stain the material. Such a disinfection Is zinc chloride so- lutfon

How to Keen Healthy.

If you do not accustom yourself to drink water regularly, you are liable to have the waste products of the tis- sues of the body form faster than they are removed. Great weakness and Ian gour on rising in the morning are gener- ally due to large secretion of these waste products, and the remedy Is to drink a tumblerful of water, either hot or cold, just before retiring. This materially assists in the process during the night, and leaves the tissues fresh and strong, ready for the active work of the next day.

How to Care For Food.

Never put any warm food away in covered dish. If warm bread or warm cake is shut up in box, the steam will make holding swift and sure re- suit. If warm potatoes are left stand ing in covered dish, they will quickly become so heavy and soggy as to be unfit for use. As a general rule the more quickly food of any kind, but particularly soup, cools, the longer it will keep. The best way to care for cheese Is to wrap it in piece of linen and shut 1t up in a box.
