which the readers of the Herald are already

Nothing better. The advocates OF this
method of practice claim that II 1t be con-
sistently followed all ordinary colds and
other catarrhal affections would cease to
affict mankind.
How the pneumococcus gets It's hold is
also a matter of equal interest. 1t can only
take root IN proper soil The raw, con-
Sested membrane OF an infamed throat Of
ters the most direct of all invitations.
Hence all such affections during pneumonia
seasons require prompt and effective treat
ment. Then. also. II Is TO be remembered
that the microbe. while apparently COM
placeut and harmless In the healthy throat,
becomes rlotously virulent when IL gets a
chance to act on it's own account. Also
that its toxic effects become increased by
passage and propagation from one indt-
vidual TO another.
On such theory the exhalations of the
pneumonia patient become more especially
dangerous to the susceptible Individual.
Here, then, Is the main argument In favor
OF lsolating the sick one. of disinfecting his
expectoTation and arresting this Increased
yirulence at its source. The injunction
should also reasonably apply to all such
