SOME DON'Ts AND DOS 80. -.
CONCERNING CONSUMPTION

The spit and the small particles
coughed up and sneezed out by con-
sumptives, and by many who do not
know that they have consumption,
are full of living germs too small to
be seen. These germs are the cause
of consumption.
Don't spit on sidewalks; 1t spreads
disease, and 1t is against the law.
Don't spit on the floors of your
rooms or Railways.
Don't spit on the floor OF your shop
When you spit, spit in the cutters
|or into spittoon. +. Have your spit
ICONS half full of water, and clean
them out at least once day with hot
water.
Don't cough without holding a
handkerchief or your hand over your
mouth.
Don't live in rooms where there is
no fresh air.
Don't sleep in rooms where there is
no fresh air
Keep at least one window open In
your bedroom day and night.
Fresh air helps to kill the consump-
ton germ.
Fresh air helps to keep you strong
and healthy.
Don't eat with soiled hands; wash
them first.
Don't neglect a cold or a cough.
How TO Cure Consumption.
Don't waste your money on patent
medicines or advertised cures for con-
sumption, but go to doctor or a
dispensary If you go in time. you
can be cured; If you wait,until you
are so sick that you cannot work any
longer, or until you are very weak;
it may be too late; at any rate, it will
in the end mean more time out of
work and more wages lost than if you
had taken core of yourself at the
start.
Don't drink whiskey, beer or other
Intoxicating drinks; they will do you
no good, but will make it harder for
you to get we'll
Don't sleep in the same bed with
anyone else, and. If possible. not in
the same room
Good food. fresh air and rest are
the best cures. Keep in the sun
shine as much as possible. and keep
your windows open. winter and sum-
mer, night and day. Fresh air. night
and day, is good for you.
Go to a hospital while you can,
and before it is too late There you
can get the best treatment. all the
rest, all the fresh air. and all the food
which you need
