ON Tuesday evening last when a large

cred TO listen TO an address from DR..

the subject Of consumption or as the
doctors prefer to call it, tuberculosis.
Preliminary to the lecture the Farm
Vile branch of the Anh-Tuberculosis
Association. which had its first session
on the 18th inst, was completed Dr.
C. b. Crute, president. presided ana
Mr. j. z Garland acted as secretary
Rev n. NJ. Fugate. chairman OF the

number of new members OF the
Association were registered, and Drs

son were elected vice presidents. The
annual dues were fixed at one dollar,
and at least four annualmeetings were
agreed on. The objects of the Assocla-
ton are to be chiefly on the lines OF
preventive measures.
DIR. Winston introduced the speaker
of the evening and in doing so drew
striking contrast between the doctor
of bv-oone and the doctor of the pres
ent day DR.. Parker first gave illus

and then impressed the lessons OF pre-
caution and the common sense lessons
for treatment As germs are the
sources of the dreaded malady, they
are to be assedduously guarded against
and when the enemy attacks the sys-
tenn fight it with fresh air rest and
rich food. Consumption is breathed
out or given out in sputa, THEREFORE
guard well against the approaches,
and don imagine you must have the
disease because it has been

doctors have the drop on this old-time
foe and that it will not continue to
