An Extra Good Appetite.

A good appetite is symptom of
good health. An extra good appetite
is sometimes symptom of constitu-
tional disturbance somewhere. A sam
pie letter sent to the Questions and
Answers" column of prominent
health journal was something like
this:
81 am troubled with pimples, not to
a great extent, but still very annoying.
They appear principally on the fore
head. but occasionally on other places.
I often feel ianguid, and tire easily,
and cannot gain flesh, although 1 have
an extra good appetite. Still 1 am
not sick. and have not been in bed for
a day in my life. Age. nineteen years.
VIII you. kindly advise me what you
think would remove these pimples?''
There is little doubt but that, the
extra good appetite alluded to af-
fords the key to the situation. The di-
gestive organs have more than they
can take care of. and consequently do
not properly take care of anything fur
nished. There will be frequent head
aches, skin disorders and alternate con
stipation and diarrhea with such per
sons. Pimples are natural result of
such depraved blood conditions.
With many people the habit OF
hearty eating is continued when the
warm spring days come. Food which
was appropriate when the thermomet-
err was at zero is continued in the
samu quality and quantity when the
thermometer rises to ninety degrees
in the sun, and averages above sixty
all day and night. The person who
loses his appetite under such a condi-

Special Hospitals for consumptives.

Special Hospitals for Consumptives.
hundred years ago the city of
Naples. Italy, erected a large hospital
for consumptives, and required the
isolation of all persons suffering from
this disease. 1t is only recently, how
ever, that the authorities of modern
cities have become awakened to the
importance of this sanitary measure
Recently a number of cities have
taken steps for the establishment of
hospitals especially for the treatment
of cases of consumption by the so
called "open-air method" Excellent
results are reported from this method
of treatment.
The German government has a
large central committee numbering
more than thirteen hundred persons,
organized for the purpose CT erecting
hospitals for the treatment of tuber-
culosis. This committee has under its
supervision seventy-four such hospi-
tails, and last year treated over thirty
thousand patients, of whom eighty per
cent were returned to their homes
practically cured after remaining il
the hospitals on an average of little
less than three months.

The following abstracts from an ar
dcle by J. E. Stubbert, M. D., in the
Medical Record, should receive wide
and careful attention. No doubt if
these ideas could be carried out, the
white plague" would be robbed of
much of its terror:
In ancient times it was highly i'm
proper to expose a tuberculouS pa
tient, especially one beyond the first
stage, to a breath of fresh air except
on the mildest days in summer, while
the night air was dreaded and avoided
as the plague. Then the more observ-
ant and thoughtful men noticed that
those who lived more in the open air
did not die as quickly as the dollhouse
patients, and they began to urge an
outdoor life ard moderate exercise
as a prophylactic as well as cure
for those in the early stages of con-
sumption. Those in the more advanc-
ed stages were allowed fresh air only
when it was at summer temperature,
but even this was better than being
kept indoors in warm, ilIyentilated
rooms the whole year.
There are several plans by which
the victim of tuberculosis may con-
tinuously breathe pure, fresh air by
night as well as by day. Sleeping out
in the open air is not harmful to
large majority of tuberculous people.
Millet, of Brockton, Mass, reports
the cases of five patients whom he
recommended to sleep out of doors at
night. They were allowed no roof
over their heads except in rainy
weather. They wore soft felt hats
and cotton nightshirts, sleeping under
ordinary bedclothes in beds arranged
on the roofs of their houses. I'm
provement was noted in two weeks.
Coughs disappeared, temperatures be-
came normal, respirationS were easier
and weight increased rapidly. No at
tention was paid to dampness and
drafts, and heavy dews were regarded
as inconvenient simply because of the
necessity of drying the bedclothes.
Sleeping in small room with an
open window does not appear to be
nearly SO beneficial to the patient as
when the nights are passed on a ver-
anda or in a tent where there is a
free circulation of air on all sides. If
patient were fortunate enough to
have large room with a southern ex-
posture and containing one or two
open f1replaces, in addition to large
windows on three sides, which might
be opened at night, he might derive
approximately the benefit incident to
tent life.
McGraham, of South Carolina, pre-
fers the circular to the army tent, and
thinks it better to place it on plat
form two feet from the ground, and
to do without carpets and draperies.
Draperies are not necessary, but rugs
add greatly to the comfort and con-
venience of those in ill health, and
their use can be made perfectly safe
by exposing them to the sunlight for
q few hours daily.

Had Strange Experience.

The Pacific Mail steamer CRY of Panama,
which sailed from San Francisco, CAL, Jan
q, for ports on the Central American coast,
had a strange experience, news of which
was received by mail from Acapulco
Through miles of sea, covered thickly with
masses of vegetation, tree trunks and the
carcasses of dead animals, the steamer
sailed. the debris at times being so thick
that her progress was impeded. Some OF
the trees were five or six feet in diameter
and the dead animals were of all descrip-
tons. The debris was encountered on Jan.
e in latitude 1858 north and longitude
100.29 west. The surf was eight or nine
feet thick. The officers of the vessel were
unable to explain the strange conditions
and when they arrived at Acapulco no light
was thrown on the subject. 1t is supposed
that the floating debris was cast upon the
waters by some gigantic volcanic eruption
on the Central American coast
