AVOID sPREADII:G OF DISEASE
Precautions That Should Be Observed
by Those Afflicted With
tuberculosis.

All persons who are intimately as
ISOLATED with cases of active pulmo-
nary tuberculosis cannot be too eau
tious about the proper disposition Of
tubercular sputum. Such sputum
should always be received in cups
containing five per cent solution of
lysol or carbolic acid, or, in the alb
sence of these, milk of lime. Paper
cups, made especially for this purpose,
may be used and subsequently, burned.
Soiled handkerchiefs and cloths
should be immersed for one hour in
lysol or carbolic acid Give per cent?
and then boiled before they are han
died. The patient should be provided
with a set of dishes for his exclusive
use, and these should be kept by
themselves and boiled thoroughly aft
er each meal Remember that tuber-
culosis is a preventable disease, but
that it's control can be accomplished
only by the strictest observance of
sanitary precautions.

In his latest poem. "Narcissus,'
Robert Bridges, the English poet lau'
reate, has banished the comma en-
tirely, SO that a procession of ad'
jectives may be taken, at the readers
option, as separate qualities, or as
qualifying each other. Thus one may
call his hero almighty wondrous," or
regard him as being both. Mr.. Bridges
principles of punctuation are not OBJ
vious. He loves the exclamation mark,
using it five times in the % lines OF
the poem, and sprinkles dashes about
with prodigality. He adopts the colon
and does not slight the interrogation
mark, while using now and then full
stop.
