If, for no other | reason than that of self-protectton, 1t | is high time that the whites of the | South, upon whom must fall all the cares and responsibilities of the man. | agement of the affairs of the State for the public good, should take steps to prevent the continued spread of tuber- culosis among the negroes. If our cooks, chiidren's nurses. and other servants have tuberculosis, there is
 danger of our families becoming in fected.
 If you would have an intelligent idea of how to prevent tuberculosis, you
 must have some knowledge of what the disease Is, of the life history of it's germ, and of how 1t is contracted; and knowing these things, the methods to
 employ in limiting its spread will be almost self-evident l shall, therefore go little into detail in discussing those points, endeavoring to make my
 meaning clear by employing as few technical terms as ossible
 Tuberculosis Is due to minute vese- table organism called the tubercle ba-
 cillus. It was discovered in 1882. The
 germs of consumption are so small that no human eye has ever seen them
 without the aid of the high power lens
 of the microscope. In the phlegm
 CsputumD of consumptive in the last
 stages, there are sometimes 500. .000, 900
 germs to the teaspoonful. It is esti-
 mated that the consumptive with q
 cavity in his lungs expectorates
 5000, 100000 of the germs in twenty
 four hours. When we remember that
 but one germ, implanted in the lungs
 of person, who for any reason is sus-
 ceptible to tuberc dlosis, may be the
 beginning of the disease we can have
 some idea of the danger the careless consumptive can be to family or com
 munity. q will state here that the
 consumptive who Is careful to always destroy or disinfect the sputum as it is
 expectorated is not a danger to any
 one. It is only when the phlegm of the consumptive becomes dry and the germs
 float with particles of dust in the at
 mosphere, that there is danger). The careless or thoughtless-I feel almost like saying criminal-consumptiv splits upon the pavements or floor. the phlegm dries, people walk upon 1t and grind 1t into dust, which gets into the air, and Is taken into the lungs of the passer- by. It adheres to the shoes, and the dust gets into the clothing. and it is fin this way that the germs are carried into homes. It there gets Into the car pets. crevices in the floor closets and dark places, where the dried germs will retain their virulenee for a year or eighteen months. This is not idle |
