GERMS-OR BACTERIA.

The words germs" and bacteria"
mean the same thing. Both are Of
ten referred to as bugs" and 1t is a
common belief that they are tiny ami
mails.
Germs really belong to the lowest
order of plant life rather than ami
NAL, being related to the fungi or
molds. They are mere cells or specks
of living matter, so tiny that their
examination taxes the finest micro
scopes. So tiny are they that %. =
600 bacteria could often lieN side by
side in the space of one inch.
They are of different shapes-s some
look like period. some like a com
ma. some like spiral and others
like dash, in fact, the word 'ba-
cillus" means rod
They multiply oftenest hy separat-
ing in half, each half being alive.
They can withstand tremendous
heat and cold. They develop with
wonderful rapidity. as many as 10, :
100000 being produced in % hours
time.
Being invisible to the naked eye.
one naturally wonders how they ever
were really discovered. But for many
years scientists had had the opinion
tNot 'hci" must pe Houie specldl cause
Tor acute diseases, since the poison
from which each arises multiplies so
strangely.
Whatever this poison was, It could
not be seen. so it was called "conta-
gion." 1t was decided that this con-
tagion must he some living thing.
The foregoing idea was called the
germ theory. Scientists set to work
on il.
We must not forget that the body
has not been left unprotected or en-
tirely at the mercy of germs. :.
