spair and Dr. Christy went to Constan-

thau.
He and DIR. Christy effected a moditi-
cation of the order so that only seventy
families will be taken away. Then Dr.

CURE AND PREVENTION
OF TUBERCULOSIS
BY J. FRANK WALLIS. M. D.
No. ".

The question of food in relation to
consumption is too important to pass
over hurriedly; it is really the great
eft factor in sustaining life and sup
pPrting the activity of the cells. Not
alone is it a question of the selection
Of the proper diet, but also the best
method of its administration.
Professor Cornet of Berlin, one of
the ablest authorities on tuberculo-
sis. states: 1.-THE most noticeable eff
.ert Of consumption is the progressive
elnaciation. Our first aim must be
tb stay the increased m~etabolism, to
make good the pressing deficit, and
BIZ a heightened nutrition to cover the
lo)ss which has already occurred.
Forced feeding is not only a sympto-
matic measure, but directly furthers
THE cure. A good state of nutrition
improves the blood, the strength and
THE resistance of the cells"
Metabolism is a Greek word, mean
ihg a change, and when used medical
lyF denotes the process by which the
living cells appropriate their food
Through the medium of the blood dur
ing digestion and assimilation. 1t is
the change of the inert substance OF
our food into living cells.
To increase this metabolic process
food must be t. at regular times,
allowing apprd late rest during the
Intervals. The usual system consists
al follows: A first breakfast at 7 a,
ND. while in bed consisting of one OF
two cups of hot milk in which an egg
or two is beaten. This is followed by
rest usually of about half an hour
The second breakfast is taken at 9 OF
1Q a. M, when if the appetite is
gpod, the patient may have a chop
OF a small piece of steak, preceded by
ahy of the usual nutritious break
fast foods. Coffee, tea or cocoa is
permitted when it does not produce
or increase the v i~rritability
AIT this meal a quantity of milk should
be consumed, a pint if possible.
The noon meal is taken between II
and l o'clock and may consist of the
usual family meal, including at least
a pint of milk and two raw eggs.
This should be the heaviest meal OF
the day, and should be followed by an
