What Is Tuberculosis?

Tuberculosis or consumption. known also as "phthikis.' is a treacherou1 disease caused by inc growth in the body of millions of little rod shaped germs called "tubercle baccllli." be- cause. as they multiply they produce small Jumps Ore"tuhercles. The germs are really tiny plant like parasites, SO small that they must he magnified hundreds of times under a powerful microscope before one can sec them at all.
 Being parasite. the germ of tubcr- culosis. like the mistletoe or fungus growth. must live by tabing life from something else and on this account it lives in the body of human beings or animals better than anywhere else. in the eye the skin the knee or the spine and most frequently in inc lungs.-and the other organs of breath ing.
 Outside Of the body. the germs of tuberculosis may bC easily killed. ii they are exposed to direct sunlight for a fpw hours Moist heat at 10 degree F. boiling water, or strong alkaline soaps. washing soda and similar household ciea ,sing solutions will also kill them. If undisturbcd be germs Of tcberc3lusis may live i outside of the body in warm moist ! dark places. such as corners of rooms 1 and railways for months or even l years.
 ! Because of the careless habits of ! people who hay" consumption and | others. She germs of the disease are 1 everywhere. Every time q person ] who has the bacilli in his sputun 1 spits on the floor sidewalk or i'm any i other exposed place the germs by the i billions may become dry. and when stirred up by broom or current of air may be inhaled by the chancc | passeT. \ specE of dust. such as one sees fin the sunlight. may be the rest ! ing place of hundreds of these tiny ! germs. on this account nearly every body at some time or other breathes In l the living germs Of tuberculosis. Why then doesn't everyone die of tuberculosis? Because the germs of tubercluosis in the body cannot grow. 1 ,aless ihev find certain tissues that are weak, flabby. or. az it is better called non resistant Everyone has | a certain normal resistance to tuber- cplosis. Ig this resistance is lowered For any reason. the germs. which are almost always present m the body, will guielslv find some tissue on which ] they can grow, and thus the disease | is started. If takes more than the presence of the germ in the body to
 ceuse tuberculosis It needs also q
 lowered vitality that will give the
 germ a chance to grow. It Is like the
 seed and the soil sThe scalea. para site that rains D. rose1ush frequently comes
 from poorly nournished soil. Tn.
 tuberche bacilhis is the seed tie body
 is the soil. If the soil is allowed to
 lose it's normal 9nd natural fertility the seed will prodpce disease. If the
 soil is Kept up to it's full strength
 this parasite seed cannot grow. and
 no tuberculosis will develop.
 Once the germs begin to grow in
 the body. they produce injury to 1t in
 two waNs'
 10. They destroy tissues. The de
 struction In the lung. for example
 may amount to n very small spot. oi
 1t may be 2 large cavity. and not
 frequently au entire lung The sooner the disease is discovered. the smaller
