The care and cleanliness of a room
occupied by-a person infected with
tuberculosis can not be emphasized
too much This care must be exer-
cised not only during the time the
patient is occupying the room but after
removal.
Proper disposal of the sputun is
an important point The sputum
should be collected in regular sputum
cups, which may be purchased at
very little expense. A little sawdust
sifted in the bottom will help in OBJ
sorbing the moisture After use. the
cups and their contents should be de-
stroyed by fire. Old clothes or paper
are sometimes used for collecting
sputum and then burned but this
method IS unsatisfactory.
; Furniture Should Be Removed.
All excess furniture should be re-
moved from the room, also the carpet,
should be taken out Small rugs may
be used in place of a carpet. for they
may be taken out frequently. summed
and aired. A large majority of the
days are 100 per cent sunshine. and
this IS very valuable as a cleansing
agent. The use of small rugs which
may be removed frequently, allows
ample opportunities to cleanse the

swept. A solution OF strong soap suds
should be used for scrubhing the
floor. At other times a damp mop
may be used. Likewise a damp dust
cloth should always be used on the
furniture in the room.
A Communicable Disease.
There are some very interesting
points about the germ Of tuberculosis.
tuberculosis is communicable dis
ease that is caused by germ that
lives in the bodies of human beings
and animals. but perishes easily when
subjected to exposure Boiling for one
minute will kill it. Exposure to direct
sunlight will kill in three hours It
is easily killed by heat, but has been
known to remain alive for months in
handker chiefs in dark closets.
The bed should be kept constantly
clean. The blankets should be washed
or cleaned every two or three months.
If it is not desired to wash the blankets
they should be exposed to the sunlight
protected by a washable pad with
from infection
garbage coming from the patient is
an important point, for this food may
contain the germs. II this garbage is
burned. naturally the danger Is re-
moved.
Too much emphasis can not be laid
upon the use of plenty of soap and
water in the care of a room occupied
by a tuberculosis patient.

IMPERIALISM OF JAPAN
IMPEDIMENT IN KOREA
Baron Ishimoto Contrasts Situation
There With. That Confronting
Other Nations.

TOXIC. March 1S.-That the impe-
rialism of Japan will prove as much
an impediment to the satisfactory So
luton of her Korean question as the
imperialism of Great Britain will be
to the settlement Of the Irish. Indian
and Egyptian questions and that OF
the United States to the solution OF
the Mexican problem was the state
ment of Baron Keikichi Ishimoto, a
mining expert in an address before
the Oriental and Occidental Religion
Society.
The chief subject CT discussion at
the meeting was the problem pre-
sented to Japan by Korea and Baron
lshimoto's proposed solution of that
problem is the granting of a larger
amount of economic freedom to the
Koreans. 1T is regrettable that the
pending questions between the Japa-
nese and Korean peoples should re-
main unsolved because of the inn
perialistic policy Of Japan" he said,
"a policy which combines militarism
and capitalism. However free and
peaceful a nation may appear on the
surface, no real liberty can be en-
joyed SO long as the economic sys-
tenn of the country is under control
of another nation. The emancipation
of Korea cannot be achieved until
the economic yoke which restricts the
free activities of the Koreans is cast
away"
