will be better off.
1t is fact which is borne out by
local experience that Negroes do die
rapidly and all to quickly from pneu-
monia and tuberculosis. It is also a
fact that is borne out by universal
experience that tuberculosis is the
most easily cured disease in the
world if properly and promptly ham
died. The fact that some people die
is no evidence Of the difficulty of the
proposition. It also is notorious
fact that Negroes are among the most
promiscuous medicine takers in the
world. They are gullible and believe
anything that is said Of medicine,
paying too little attention to other
factors than merely swallowing
things. Too often do they follow the
misguide that there is a remedy for
every disease and seek for the elixir
of life even though they dit in the
search.
Pains are not necessarily a reliable
index of a condition, consequently the
taking of such and such thing because
some one else had the same supposed
illness is frequently disastrous pro-
ceedure.
No medicine ought be given with
out definite indication. Definite in
dications can be had only by careful
and understanding examination. Any
rra{nrl fa
but it is the proper Interpretation of
the findings which counts.
The sooner we awaken to the fact
that we are neither Disseminated
against nor favored in matters of
health, and that we are to be more
careful in matters of hygiene the bet
ter off we will be.
We need to shake off some antiq-
uated ideas of cures. Men VIII pre-
sumo the knowledge and skill to d.
rect soul to heaven will tell people
to take dog oil for tuberculosis. The
idea of the neighbor is pitted against
the doctors opinion and too often
there Us faith in some intervening
force which might be called sublime
if it were not so pathetic and found
ed upon colossal ignorance.
If every Negro felt that he was |
singled out as a favorable prey for
pneumonia and tuberculosis and lived
correctly, plenty of air, proper rest, /
wholesome food and sense enough to
pick a good doctor and listen to him
there would be less of these dread !
deaths would not be so high. Still it
is more important to know about the
hereafter than it is to know about
the here.
