a lecture here to-day made the statement
that medical science had disproved the
commonly accepted notion that disease had
its origin in filth. and created a sensation
by saying that disease germs will not live
outside the body. are not carried through
the air and are not found in the breath Of
the sick
Disease germs NAV be carried IN food
and by insects, but they plsy small part
in infectious diseases here in New Eng
land" said Or. Chaplin. We constantly
carry the germs Of tuberculosis, pneumo-
MIA. scarlet fever. dphtheria influenza.

Of transmitting these diseases than by kiss
