fers conuiuons ravorlng the spread OF
tuberculosis"
One Million consumptlves In the
United States.


sThen you consider this serious
menace?' was asked. "In my opinion
It is, though hasten to add It is dis
tinctly one against which the people
can guard. So far as one can estimate
there are at present about one million
cases of tuberculosis In the United
States. There Is unfortunately no
complete census available to show ex-
actly the number of tuberculosis per-
sons In each state despite the fact that
most of the states have made the dis
ease reportable. In New York city,
where reporting has been in force for
many years, over $4,000 cases of tu-
berculosis are registered with the De-
partment of Health. Those familiar
with the situation believe that the ad-
dition of unrecognized and unreported
cases would make the number nearer
$4,000. The very careful health sur
vey conducted during the past two
years In birmingham, Mass, revealed
200 cases of tuberculosis In popula-
ton OF approximately $4,000. If these
proportions hold true for the United
States as whole they would indicate
sons is tuberculous Each of these
constitutes source of danger to be
guarded against"
What to Do.
In his statement to the public Sur
geon General Blue points out how
those who have had influenza should
protect themselves against tuberculo-
sis. "All who have recovered from in
fluenzn," says the Surgeon General,
"should have their lungs carefully ex-
amined by competent physician. In
fact, 1t is desirable to have several ex-
aminations made month apart. Such
examinations cannot be made through
the clothing nor can they be carried
out in two or three minutes. If the
lungs are found to be free from tuber.
culosis every effort should be made 10
keep them so. This can he done by
right living, good food and plenty of
fresh air."
Danger Signs.
The Surgeon General warned espe.
cially against certain danger signs
such as decline and "colds which
hang on"
These, he explained, were often the
beginning of tuberculosis. IF you dc
not get well promptly, If your colo
seems TO hang on or your health and
strength decline, remember that these
are often the early signs of tuberculo
sis. Place yourself at once under tho
/ care Of competent physician. Tuber
culosls is curable In the early stages.

Of course the fellow who whistles at his work Is likely to annoy some one near him who is nervous and irri- table. but the whistling is good omen.
