Pulmonary tuberculosis
Chief Cause of Death in
Government Figures

tuberculosis is more commonly
known, as consumption, from the fact
that the disease CONSUMES while
generally it is disease of the lungs,
it may effect other parts Of the body.
Consumption is an infectious or COM
municable disease. This means that it
may be communicated from the sick to
the well. It can always be prevented
in its earlier stages, and sometimes In
it's secondary stages, it can be cured.
The cause of the disease is living
germ, a minute plant, called the bacil-
lus of tuberculosis. This bacillus causes
destruction of tissue with gradual
wasting away, and finally death, if the
disease is not checked. By far, the
most common form OF tuberculosis is
that called pulmonary tuberculosis or
consumption of the lungs. The lungs
and air passages affected undergo the
destructive process, with the production
of millions and millions of new living
germs constantly multiplying in the af-
fected parts. of the body and are con-
stantly escaping and injecting others.
The local physician is of vast impor-
lance. He is always ever ready and
prompt, but from his limited expert
ence in the treatment of these particu-
lar diseases, he is probably not suf-
fciently familiar to treat them as
scientifically as one who has grown up
in this particular special practice. The
Northern Medical Institute doctor as
a specialist in these diseases, ranks

more clear. To the eighty-second year
of life Mr.. Simmons spirit grew, till
lit was too large to hold a grudge, too
noble to cherish anger and bitterness

he was ever modest in receiving it. In
his age his hoary head was crown

Out of his faith and trust in the
things unseen and eternal grew this
richness of his character. Liberal in
heart, tolerant in spirit gracious to all
