HEALTH HINTS

It is now believed by the leading
medical authorities that there Is no
climate that in itself will cure tuber.
culosis.
Formerly climate was looked upon
as the most important factor In the
production of tuberculosis. Conse
quently 1t was also looked upon as the
most important treatment.
1t Is life in the open air which Is
the essential factor in the treatment
Of the disease. Consumption can be
cured In any climate. All that is nee.
essary Is plenty Of fresh air, proper
food, carefully directed rest and re.
pose and sleep.
People who can have these things
at home can be cured in their homes.
Patients who cannot have them
should be treated = ===.==.-sSia.
Many people have dread Of san.
