Do YOU know why the little ones
suffer?
Let us quote from Dr. Burmas
ters paper.
The weight of evidence is that
tuberculosis is not inherited by
children from their parents. 1t can
happen and does happen sometimes.
as shown by good observers. Never
theless. thousands OF children are
Infected by their consumptive par
ents. Children are mostly infected
with the disease by sleeping with
them by using the same dishes, by
kissing, or by having the germs OF
the disease transmitted TO them
from earelessly handling bedclothes
and handkerchiefs, or by inhaling
dried expectoration The number
OF infected children is very large.
The germs may remain dormant in a
child for years. A lowered vitality
after a sickness, or too close con-
finement in school, or being put to
work 90 young, will cause the
germs to become active"
And again:
That which helps to build up the
body helps to overcome the disease.
The best agents to do this are sun
shine, air, rest and nourishing food.
although medicines help. No medi-
cine thus far discovered will do as
much as these four agents"
And for this reason the Society
has selected as the location for its
National Home the best spot in the
great Southwest.
AS our readers know, the location
of the Society's grounds is the most
ideal At the extreme east end of
Tenth street, out of the basin ra-
dius of the town proper, sufficient

which 136 lives were lost, had preced-
ed him by wireless. but in a cabin Of
the Kroonland, which brought him
here. Inch told his tale in simply
phrased and mOdestly spoken detail
that described more wildly than the
wireless could picture the panOrma Of

more than 500 of those she had on
