Early in October there vas held in

In connection with the Worlds Fair,
the American International Congress

representatives gathered from all
parts Of the American continent, to
discuss the best means of preventing
and curing this dreadful disease. Spe-

Of prevention, The congress was in
session three days. Many important
questions were discussed and commit
tees were appointed for the purpose
of carrying forward an active cam
paign against this most terrible Of all
the foes of human life. The commit
tee OF publicity was charged with the
duty Of organizing a proper educa-

Chautauquas, conventions, associa-

for the purpose of placing in the
hands Of the public information re-

Diet for Tuberculosis.

The tubercular patient needs pro
teids, or tissue-buildlng foods, but only
just the amount which can be assimi-
lated and utilized by the body. Any
excess must be treated like poisoDs.
and hence must be a burden to both
liver and kidneys, and u waste Of vital
energy,
protcids must be taken, not only in
moderate quantity, but in the purest
form possible The vegetable kingdom
presents proteids in combination with
fats in great abundance, ard in nuts,
which can be made easily digestiblo
by thorough chewing or by proper
preparation.
The yolks Of eggs afford also a com.
bination of fats and proteids which is
admirably suited to the tubercular pa
tIent. Milk, especially rich milk, is
another food adapted to this class Of
patients when it does not produce
"billousness" through indigestion.
Many tuberculor patients have dia-
tation of the stomach, Such cases
must avoid milk. Nearly all can take
nuts If the right kind is selected and
great care is taken with the mastica-
ton, Pecans, hickory nuts, almonds
ard filberts, pinOns, or pine nuts are
the best varieties. Half q pound of
nuts may be taken daily by the con
sumptive, not only without harm, but
with great benefit, If combined with
other foods, A diet consisting Of nuts,
well-toasted bread and fruits is a per
feet dietary for the tubercular patient.
The yolks Of dozen eggs may be
used in place Of nuts.

'dovement to Suppress tuberculosis.
Science has demonstrated beyond
question that pulmonary tuberculosis
Or consumption of the lungs is both q
prevontable and durable disease.
This disease is produced by germs
which find their way into the body
through abrasions of the skin, through
the mucous membrane of the mouth
or the intestines and through the
lungs. The germs Of the disease are
found in the sputum of persons suf-
fering from tuberculosis. The germs
are also found in the flesh and milk of
animals suffering from the disease.
The germs are found nearly every
where These germs cannot live in
the tissues Of thoroughly healthy
person, as the cells Of the body are
capable of destroying the germs, but
when the body is weakened by indi-
gestion by the habits Of breathing
foul or bad air, by anything which i'm
pairs the health, the tissues lose their
power to destroy germs so that when
they enter the body they find lodge
ment, grow and develop and tubercu-
losis Of the lungs, bowels or Of some
other part is the result.
Statistics show that at least 10000
persons die OF this disease in this
country annually. -Four or five times
that number of persons are sick all
the time with this disease Tubercu-
losls kills more than any other NAL
ady. Experience has shown that the
disease is not incurable, as has been
generally supposed but is q very cur
able malady if taken in time, and if |
the right treatment is applied, Not
less than one hundred thousand lives
could be saved every year by the ap-
Dlicaton of proper means for prevent,
Ing and curing this terrible disease,

Buttermilk for Consumptives.

Buttermilk is an excellent food for
tubercular patients. 1t may be taken
in the quantity of one to three quarts

other food taken. The patient may
take two meals, three meals, or four
meals a day, according 10 the quantity
Of food taken at each meal, and the
kind Of food. A safe rule Is never to
allow a consumptive to go hungry. He
should eat whenever he has appetite

stomach may be utilized in furnishing
