Now she eats an apple or drinks the Juice
of one or two oranges The acid in these
fruits seems to ''go to the spot as nothing
else does, besides which they have the ad-
vantage that they can be placed by the
bedside on retiring. where they can be OBJ

used are not the kind so common in New

Speaking before the National Associ-
alton for the Study and Prevention OF
tuberculosis recently. DIR. Henry Far
mum Stoll Of Hartford. Conn. said:
Every city should have one or more
outdoor schools" He recommended
such institutions for all delicate. So
called scrofulous or anaemic children.
and those with tuberculosis of the
bones. who are now in ordinary
schools. Doctor Stoll declared that
twenty to forty per cent. OF school
children In large cities are infected
with tuberculosis. By the use Of tu-
berculin. II was ascertained that 70 per
cent. OF the children from tuberculous
homes were infected MS against only 20
per cent. OF those from supposedly
healthy homes. 1t was also found that
30 per cent. of the frail children from
healthy homes had the germs OF the
disease. but that only 10 per cent. OF
the robust children from similar homes
were thus affected.
