painful sight is not at all rare, and 1t
is quite common to see drunken wom-
en- Keeling about in the streets. What
sad commentary on our modern CIV
ilization.
In Copenhagen 1t is the custom to
dress young schoolgirls so that their
arms are almost or entirely bare. even
in weather when Americans appre-
ciate their overcoats. This practice
necessarily chills the blood, and tends
to produce congestion of the internal
organs, and undoubtedly lays the
foundation for colds. pneumonia and
tuberculosis.
tuberculosis is making sad havoc
among the urban population OF Nor
way. 1t is pitiful to note how this
plague is decimating this once hardy
race. Sedentary life, indoor confine-
ment and defective ventilation are
undoubtedly the most prolific causes,
for fifty per cent of the tubercular
cases make satisfactory recovery
when they are sent to some outdoor
sanitarium; and what will cure a con-
sumptive would certainly have pre-
vented the onset of the disease.
The liquor curse is undermining the
physical stamina of the Swedish race.
Liquor drinking among the working
classes is almost universal. One
third Of their population die before
the age of twenty-one, and one-fourth
of those who live, are rejected from
military service on account of phys
ical disqualifications.

= NATURES GREAT DISINFECTANT,
1 Let the Sunlight Reach Every Corner of the
House and Destroy the Germs.

Natures great disinfectant Is sun
light. 1t is most interesting fact
that this wonderful light, which pro-
notes the growth of useful plants and
sustains animal life, at the. same time
destroys by its very brightness all
sorts of germs which are brought in
contact with it. 1t is this fact alone
which renders the earth inhabitable.
Germs develop with such marvellous
rapidity that they would quickly over
whelm us by their very numbers II
not constantly destroyed by the sun.
A little computation will readily show
this. Some germs are capable of such
rapid multiplication that they may
double every fifteen minutes under
favorable conditions of temperature
and food supply. Estimate the num-
Der of germs which might be pro-
duced in a single day of twenty-four
hours, or ninety-six doub!ings. The
number would be more than thirty
two thousand billion billions, or suf-
fcient to cover eighty thousand
square miles a foot deep, or fill a
space of more than fifteen cubic
miles. The increase of minute or
ganism occupying a cubic space of
not more than one twenty-thousandth
of an inch to such prodigious magni-
tude is beyond comprehension. and
practically cannot occur; for while
the germ may grow at this immense
rapidity for a short time. the poisons
which it produces become destructive
to itself. The material upon which 1t
feeds is also exhausted, so that its
growth ceases.
Doubtless all have noticed the fact
that mold grows during the night and
IN dark, damp cellars. Bright sun
light quickly destroys germs. mold,
and other parasitic organisms. Diff
fused daylight does not act nearly so
rapidly, but accomplishes in the
course of a few hours what bright
sunlight is capable of doing in a few
minutes. 1t is clearly evident, then.
that in order that our houses should
be kept free from germs, they. like
our bodies, should be made full of life.
The shutters should be opened, the
curtains raised. and the light admit
ted to every room in the house, clos
cts included, SO that the disinfecting
power of light may be exercised in
every nook and corner of the dwell
ing.

The influence of occupation as a
cause of consumption is shown by Dr.
j. NJ. French in the Medical Exam
liner.
AT least four classes of employ
ments ments have a tendency to favor
the development of tuberculosis.
They are:
1. Sedentary employments in i'll
ventilated apartments. involving con-
finement in impure air, and other I'M
wholesome conditions. This class of
occupations is typified by the So
called swet-shops for the manufacture
of various articles of clothing.
2. Employments which necessitates
the inhalation of irritating dust and
noxious vapors. Such are those of
stone-cutters, bleachers, matchmak.
. ers, file-cutters, grinders, engravers,
eetc.
3. Employments which involve the
overuse or abuse of certain muscles.
These are athletes, prize fighters,
gymnasts, wrestlers, professional BIZ
cycle riders. ball players, etc, large
proportion of whom die eventually of
phthisis.
due familiarity with intoxicants.
These are those connected with man
ufacture and sale of wine, beer and
the various classes of alcoholics.
Tatham's tables show that taking the
average mortality from consumption
at one hundred, that of publicans is
one hundred and forty. of brewers one
hundred and forty-eight and of bar
tenders two hundred and fifty-seven.
Overcoming Hereditary Tuberculosis.
Much is being said nowadays re-
speeding the out-of-door treatment of
tuberculosis, a disease which, while
rarely directly transmissible by hered-
fly, is one the predisposition to which
is in the highest degree hereditary.
1t has been clearly shown by numer-
Gus experiments in various parts of
the United States that out-of-door life
with regular hygienic habits, ire
spective of altitude or special climat-
ic advantages, is capable of so aiding
the natural powers of the body as to
effect a cure of this formidable mall
ady without the use of drugs of any
sort.
tuberculosis is a disease of civiliza-
ton. 1t scarcely exists among saw
ages who live in the primitive state,
but quickly appears among such peo-
pie when the habits of civilization are
adopted, especially the indoor life.
The South American monkey and the
North American Indian alike fall VIC
tins to this disease when shut away
from the sunlight and active exercise
out of doors.
The time is not far distant when
every large city will find it necessary
to provide conveniences for the APP
plication of this simple curative meas
ure, not only for the purpose of rescu-
ing the victims of pulmonary tuber-
culosis from the certain fate which
awaits them, but as an essential
measure for protecting the public
health.
