ORGANIZE TO FIGHT TUBERCULOSIS
Committee of International Congress Plans Thorough Edu
cational Campaign.
Early In October there was hold in
St Louis, at the Hall of Congresses,
In connection with tho World's Fair,
the Amorlcan International Congress
3f Tuberculosis, which consisted of
representatives gathered from all
parts of tho American continent, to
discuss the best means ot preventing
ind curing this dreadful disease. Spo
:lal attention was given to the subject
at provontlon. Tho congress was in
session threo days. Many Important
Iticstions wero discussed and commit
:eeB were appointed for tho purposo
of carrying forward an actlvo cam
paign against this most terrible of all
the foes of human life. The commlt
teo of publicity was charged with tho
duty of organizing a proper educa
tional campaign ln connection with
Chaulauquas, conventions, associa
tions nnd fraternities of various sorts,
for tho purposo of placing in ttie
hands of tho public information re
lating to tho best .means of preventing
and combatting this scourge. Those
who aro especially Interested in this
phase of tho question should address
for further Information the American
Congress on Tuberculosis, Commltteo
on Publicity, 28 Thirty-Third Place,
Chicago, 111.
Movement to Suppress Tuberculosis.
Science has demonstrated beyond
quo6tion that pulmonary tuberculosis
or consumption of tho lungs Is both a
preventable and n curable disease.
This disease Is produced by germs
which find their way Into tho body
through abrasions of tho skin, through
tho mucous membrane of tho mouth
or tho Intestines nnd through tho
lungs. Tho germs of tho disease aro
found in tho sputum of persons suf
fering from tuberculosis. Tho germs
aro also found In the flesh and milk of
animals Buffering from tho disease.
The gorms are found nearly every
where. Thcso germs cannot llvo In
tho tissues of a thoroughly healthy
person, as the colls ot the body are
capable of destroilne tho eerma. hut
I when tho body Is weakened by lndl-
Buauun, uy uio nauits or nreatning
tout or Dad air, by anything which Im
pairs tho health, tho tissues lose their
power to destroy germs so that when
they enter tho body they find lodge
ment, grow and develop and tubercu
losis of tho lungs, bowels or of some
other part Is tho result.
Statistics show that at leaBt 150,000
persons dlo of this disease in this
country annually. Four or five times
that number of persons are sick all
tho tlmo with thiB disease. Tubercu
losis kills moro than any other mal
ady. Experience has shown that the
disease is not incurable, as has been
generally supposed, but is a very cur
ablo malady If taken in time, and if
tho right treatment Is applied. Not
less than ono hundred thousand lives
could bo saved overy year by tho ap
plication of proper means for prevent
ing and curing this terrible disease.
Danger In Alcohol In Cod Weather.
When tho slcln Is warm It is red or
pink In color. Tho cold air of winter
causes tho skin to become whiter in
color. This is duo to tho contraction
of tho blood vessels of the skin. The
amount of blood passing through the
skin Is decreased, and tho amount of
heat thrown off Into tho cold air Is
likewise decreased. If a glass of wlno
or brandy Is taken the 8kln becomes
red. The sensation of warmth pro
duced Is delusive. Tho victim Im
agines himself warmer. Indeed, tho
skin is warmer, but at tho samo tlmo
a great Increase is observed in the
heat thrown off from tho skin. Tho
result Is an onormous loss of heat to
tho lnsido of the body.
Dr. ParkeB, tho eminent English
sanitarian, says: "All observers con
demn the use of spirits, and oven of
wine or beer, as a preventive against
cold." The names of Dr. King, Dr.
Kano, Capt Kennedy nnd Dr. Hayes
may also be cited as holding to this
opinion. In tho last expedition In
search of Sir John Franklin tho wholo
crow woro teetotalers.
Prof. Miller states that tho Russian
military authorities "Interdict Ub use
absolutely In tho army when troops
are about to move under extreme
cold, part of tho duty of tho corporals
being to smell carefully tho breath of
each man on the morning parade, and
to turn back from tho march thoso
who have Indulged In spirits, It having
been found that such men aro pe
culiarly subject to be frostbitten and
otherwise Injured."
Dr. Carpenter Is authority for tho
Statement that the Hudson Bay com
pany hasr -for many years, entirely ex
cluded spirits from tho fur countries
of the north, over which they havo
exclusive control, "to tho great Im
provement," as Sir John Richardson
observed, "ot tho health and morals
of their Canadian servants and of tho
Indian tribes."
Health By Training.
Health-getting, for tho chronlo In
valid, is simply a matter of training, of
health culture under favorable condi
tions, which include the discarding
ot all disease-producing habits, such
as tho use of tobacco, tea, coffee and
all Irritating, indigestible and disease
producing foods.
The free use of flesh foods is no
doubt a cause of liver and kidney dis
ease, as well as of stomach disorders.
The uric acid of flesh food Is also a
cause of rheumatism ana gout, as well
as nervousness and calculies.
For substantial and permanent re-
covery, the best method Is training.
Weak muscles must bo trained to act
with onergy. Weak nerves must be
toned up and steadied. The weak
stomach must bo trained to normal ac
tivity and tho wholo body muBt be
brought In harmony with tho forces
which mako for health.
Buttermilk for Consumptlvee.
Buttermilk is an excellent food for
tubercular patients. It may bo takon
in tho quantity of one to threo quarts
a day, according to tho amount of
other food taken. Tho patient may
tako two meals, thrco meals, or four
meals a day, according to tho quantity
of food taken at each meal, and tho
kind of food. A safo rule is never to
allow n ,,mmfi ,.,,- u
should eat whenever h han nn'ilfo
so that the full dlccstlve nower of the
stomach may bo utilized in furnishing
tho body with constructive material.
Wanted An Appetite.
Don't bo without ono. Why go to
tho dining room under nrotoat Don't
try to ouy appetlto at a dollar a bot-
tie. Earn It. Ono should enjoy eating
... . . . ... r 7
and ho will, If ho has a natural appe
tlto, sucn as comes to ono who works
for It.
Tho outdoor llfo creates appetite,
and a cold morning bath awakens the
oram, lungs, neart, liver, stomach and
tho appetite. An ico bag over tho
stomach for half an hour beforo meals
Is a good natural appetizer for a bed
ridden invalid.
Another mathod is a hot application
over the abdomen for Ave minutes, fol
lowed by an ico rub over tho samo
parts for ono or two minutes. This
not only produces an appetite but
stimulates tho flow of the , digestive
Juices and thus furnishes tho ability
to digest

latod and utilized by .the body. Any
excosB must be treated like poisons,
nnd henco must be a burden to both
liver and kidneys, and a wosto of vital
energy. v
Protolds must bo taken, not only In
moderate quantity, but in tho purest
form possible Tho vegetable kingdom
presents protolds in combination with
fats in great abundance, and in nuts,
which can bo mado easily digestible
by thorough chewing or by proper
preparation.
Tho yolks of eggs afford also a com
blnation of fats and proteids which Is
admirably suited to tho tubercular pa
tlent Milk, especially rich milk, 13
another food adapted to this class ol
patients when it does not produce
Dmou8ness" tbrough Indigestion
Many tubercular patients havo dila
indigestion
httVO diltt
tatlon of the stomach. Such cases
must avoid milk. Nearly all can take"
nuts If tho right kind is selected and
great care Is taken with the mastica
tion. Pecans, hickory nuts, almonds
and Alberts, plnons, or pino nuts are
the best varieties. Half a pound ol
nuts may bo taken dally by tho con
sumptive, not only without harm, but
with great benefit if combined with
other foods. A diet consisting of nuts
well-toasted bread and fruits Is a per
feet dietary for tho tubercular patient.
Tho yolks of a dozen eggs may be
used in placo of nuts.
