OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES AT HOME.
Dr. Laphsn Urges Sunshine, Fresh
 Air, Good Food and Simple RuIee.

Boston May 1S.-That a careful tuberculosis patient is ac safe person to live with and should not be gener- ally. avoided was the assertion of pr. George N, Lapham, former resident physician at the State Sanatorfum at Rutland, in a lecture at Evans Memor- ial Hall. Dr. Lapham pleaded Tor better treatment of consumptives, not by physicians, but by the public.
 'In some places" said the speaker, "consumptives are summed as if they were lepers. but the sufferer with tuberculosis has as much right to life and happiness as the rest of us. There is no need for this attitude of indtffer- ence and repulsion. If a consumptive takes care never to cough or SneeZe except into a handkerchief or cloth that can be burned or boiled. if he uses a sputum cup. if he has his table utensils boiled after using, and IT, hn- ally he sleeps alone in welI-Ventl- lated room, or out of doors, there IS no danger whatever in living with him. A careless tuberculosis patient on the other hand should be confined in an institution Such a person is crfTnl- nauy liable and not fit to enjoy his liberty"
 pr Iapba1n traced the history of the disease with the use of lantern slides. He said that sunlight and fresh air are the greatest enemies to tho tubercle bacilli. He was of the opIn- ion that consumption is generally con- tracted in childhood through the use of unsterilized milk from tuberculous cows, or from foods. infected by flies; and that it develops later when per- son is in a weakened condition.
 Until twenty years ago. continued the lecturer, tuberculosis was con sidered incurable. but since then there has been an active crusade against it. Sunshine, fresh air and good food are the best features of treatment for the consumptiVe. <Overfeeding, a diet of eggs and milk. going West or to high attitudes are not essential; the patient if he follows simple rules can recover just as readily at home.
 '"The idea that some people have about the efficacy of cures is appall- ing. I don't know that I want to say anything about the latest of these will not be prejudiced in favor of it merely because somebody says it is good. You will have time to wait be- fore the really scientific men recognize 1t. Not until then should anyone have faith in it as 9 cure
 In general Dr. Lapham urged that be not allowed to put their fingers or miscellaneous articles in their mouths, to swap" apple cores or candy, to eat without washing hands, mouth and teeth, to put their fingers in their noses, to moisten their hlAS DOAOA6 6 NbA hAA4 e7f IAC RdSE ES Ol " book, or to eat fruit without first washing or peeling it M
 "Ill ventilated factories and other places of employment and ill-venti- lated houses" concluded the speaker, are a prolific source of contagiop. Prisons are also menace and should be kept sanitary. The State may have g. right to deprive q criminal of his liberty. but 1t has no right to infect him with tuberculosis"

 I'm sorry to say that I am" replied the Countess
 Don't you love your country?'' she
 T should say not. think this country Is horrid and the way they do things here is absolutely abominable. There is no comparison between this country and Europe.

Then the committee could come back and establish schools and in few years you might learn something. The average American has no culture.
