tuberculosis is the most deadly of all diseases
now affcting the human family. The loss of life
attributed to this disease amounts to three thou
sand per day. two a minute; the economic loss
to the world By reason of the ravages this dis
ease is practically beyond computation. 1t
to many hundreds of millions of dollars year.
and considered both from the standpoints of money
and the loss life, tuberculosis is greater enemy
to humanity than all the of ancient and
modern times.
The loss of life attributable to tuberculosis would
be greatly lessened if the deadly nature the
disease was always comprehended by the sufferer,
but its inroads upon the patients health
insiduous that the person afflicted seldom realizes
the condition confronting him until dis
ease is practically beyond the point where it will
yield to treatment heretofore known.
Many people in the early stages of tuberculosis
treat the disease with no more serious considera-
ton than as though they were afflicted with a
severe cold other transient indispostion.
AS matter of fact the person who is afflicted
with tuberculosis. whether in the first last stage
of the disease. has but object in life in this
world and that is to conquer the disease, for if
he does not do it will certainly conquer him.
The disease is especially virulent in young peo-
ole; those who contract the disease between the
ages of sixteen and twenty-six live average of
less than twenty -four months, while person who
contracts the disease after having reached the age
of thirty may live from three to twenty years.
In the modern treatment of this disease many of
the old time theories have been completely
ploded by experience. For instance it has not
been many years since the medical fraternity al
most universally recommended deep breathing
ercises. long walks and horse back riding for per-
afflicted with tuberculosis. Modern eXper-
fence has demonstrated that each of these prac
tees is not only beneficial but is wholly detri
mental q "A suffering from this disease.
Deep breathing is perfectly desirable exercise
for whose lungs in perfect condition, but
for a person whose lungs and diseased it
amounts a constant irritation and inflammation
which in turn offer perfect condition for infection
and continued activity by the tubercle bacilli
which cause the trouble Any physician
geon who would recomemnd the active use of
limb in which the flesh and tendons had
been severed and in course of healing would
be considered a fit subject for the mad house, yet
up to within very recent time, it the almost
universal practice of the medical fraternity re-
commend deep breathing exercises for tubercular
people.
Likewise they did not hesitate to recommend
violent exercise and long and exhausting walks
it is almost universally conceded that the old
