study of bacteria a speciality, and it fB by no means clear to me whether the presence of bacilli in consumption is to be regarded as a cause or an effect of the | disease.
 THIS MUCH IS SURE: That most cases of genuine consump- | tion are due to the extension of chronic | catarrhal inflammations to the lungs from the throat and bronchial tubes, and that | a chronic inflammation may begin in the lungs as the result of serious exudatiohs into the air cells, caused by catarrh. | These cases certainly need no germ the- ! ory to explain their existence. However, too little Is known as yet about this subject to allow any conscien- tious person to affirm or deny the truth of the existence of specific tubercular bacillus.
 "rhe acute form of this disease is known as quick consumption, and the chronic form as creeping or catarrhal consumption. There Is no essential dif- ference in them, but the acute form is much more incurable than the chronic.
 "The cough of the earliest symptoms, is loose cough with a more or less eXpec- toration, which at first is mucous. and will float on water. but, as the disease develops. becomes partly pus, which can be detected by splitting in clear water, when a portion of 1t will sink slowly to the bottom. This kind of sputa gets more abundant as the disease advances. The cough is worse on first lying down at night. on getting up in the morning and after a full meal.
 HOT FLASHES AND COLD SPELLS.
 "There is an unnatural heat of the skin. alternating with cold spells or chills more or less defined. and sweating, espe- cialiy at night. These symptoms, slight at first, grow more noticeable as the dis ease advances, until hectic fever is the result.
 LOSS OF FLESH.
 Loss of flesh is prominent symptom, which increases as the disease increases, especially of the body and legs, while the face may retain its usual amount of tlesh

 SHORTNESS OF BREATH. "A feeling of exhaustion. shortness Of breath. palpitation of the heart, all warn the patient of the approaching end, yet through 1t all there is usually no abate- ment of the hopefulness of the afflicted one.

@m M HAT the people call consumption
 the doctors are in the habit of
 calling tuberculosis or pulmon-
 ary phthisis. The word con- wv sumption, however, seems to be the most expressive and descriptive of this terrible malady that causes more deaths than all wars, pestilence and famine.
 THERE IS NO SPECIFIC CURE FOR
 CONSUMPTION.
 Tn spite of all the bluster and big talk about it, no serum or cordial or intec- ton has been discovered that will cure or even prevent consumption.
 Consumption steals upon its victim so insidiously and gives so little warning of It's approach and progress that it often happens that the first stage Is fully pass ed before the victim is aware of it.. A GREAT MANY CASES ARE CURED. The case described in the accompany ing illustration Mrs. Close) is a sample of many others who have escaped cer- tain death by the timely and proper use of Peruna.
 As to the cause of consumption, Dr. Hartman, In a recent lecture on con- sumption, said:
 "I consider chronic catarrh by far the greatest and most frequent cause of con- 'o%Pi.0d "TSis is by iar 9he greatest and most frequent cause of all. Specialists, who are the best authority on this subject at the present time, insist that all but the first cause above given are merely pre- disposing causes, while the real, exciting cause
 IS CHRONIC CATARRH.
 "So thoroughly am I convinced of this fact that even when heredity (the first cause) is present. I invariably examine the throat and fauces for chronic ca- tarrh, and I have yet the first case to see where catarrh was not present. I sincerely believe that if every case of chronic catarrh was timely and properly treated that even heredity would not be sufficient to develop this terrible dis ease.
 ''The existence of tubercles in the lung of every case of consumption is no longer held to be true by the greater number of medical authorities. It is my opinion that consumption may be caused by any thing that sets up chronic inflammation of the parenchyma of the lung, and needs no special explanation to account for its existence.
 q am well aware of the tendency of later pathologists to explain the causa- tion of consumption (and other dis eases) by the presence of specific organ isms or bacilli, which sets up the dis turbance in the lungs known as consump- tion. I have given this subject much careful study and am quite familiar with the practical results obtained by a num- Der of expert microscopists who make the
