It has a rough road to travel and Is subject to a great 'many hard knocks. It doesn't lead the alas pla life by a ccnsidsrable sight" ORGANIZE TO FIGHT TUBERCULOSIS Commlttoe of International Congress Plana Thorough Edu cational Campaign. E&MWtWfe' Early in October there waB held In St Louis, at the Hall ot Congresses, In connection with tho World's Fair, the American International Congress of Tuberculosis, which consisted of representatives gathered from all parts of the American contlnont, to jlscuss the bast means of preventing nd curing this dreadful disease. Spe cial attention waB given to the subject of provcntlon. The congress was in session threo days. Many Important lucstlons were discussed and commlt :ees were appointed for tho purposo of carrying forward nn active cam paign against this most terrible ot all the foes of human life. The commit tee of publicity was charged with tho duty of organizing a proper educa tional campaign 'in connection with Chautauquas, conventions, associa tions and fraternities of various sorts, for tho purposo of placing In ttie hands of the public information re lating to tho best means of preventing and combatting this scourge. Thoso 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 question that pulmonary tuberculosis or consumption of tho lungs is both a preventablo and a curable disease. This dlseaso is produced by germs which find their way into tho body through abraslonB of the skin, through tho mucous membrane of the mouth or tho intestines and through tho lungs. Tho germs of tho dlseaso 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 dibease. Tho gorms are found nearly every where. These germs cannot llvo in tho tissues of a thoroughly healthy person, as the cells of the body are capablo of destroying the germs, but Lwhon tho body Is weakened by Indi gestion, uy mo nanus oi Dreaming foul or bad air, by anything which im pairs tho health, tho tissues lose their power to destroy germs so that when thoy enter tho body thoy find lodge ment, grow and develop and tubercu losis of tho lungs, bowels or ot somo other part is tho result Statistics show that at least 150,000 persons dto of this disease in this country annually. Four or flvo tlme3 that number of persons are sick all the timo with this disease. Tubercu losis kills moro than any other mal ady. Experience has shown that tho discaso is not incurable, as has been generally supposed, but Is a very cur ablo malady if taken In time, and if the right treatment is applied. Not less than one hundred thousand lives could bo saved every year by tho ap plication of proper means for prevent ing and curing this terrible dlseaso. Danger In Alcohol In Cold Weather. When tho skin is warm it is red or pink In color. Tho cold air of winter causes tho skin to become whiter in color. This Is due to tho contraction ot the blood vessels of the skin. Tho 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 wino or brandy is taken the skin becomes red. The sensation of warmth pro duced is delusive. Tho victim Im agines himself warmer. Indeed, the skin Is warmer, but at tho samo timo a great increaso is observed in the heat thrown oft from the skin. The result Is an enormous loss of heat to tho inBido ot the body. Dr. Parkes, the eminent English sanitarian, says: "All observers con demn the use of spirits, and oven of wine or beer, as a prevontlvo against cold." Tho names of Dr. King, Dr. Kane, Capt Kennedy and Dr. Hayes may also be cited as holding to this opinion. In tho last expedition In search ot Sir John Franklin tho wholo crew wero teetotalers. Prof. Miller states that tho Russian military authorities "interdict Its uso absolutely in tho army when troops aro about to move under extreme cold, part of the duty of the corporals being to smell carefully tho breath of each man on the morning parade, and to turn back from tho march thoso who havo indulged In spirits, it having been found that Euch men aro pe culiarly Bubject to be frostbitten and otherwise Injured." Dr. Carpenter Is authority for the statement that the Hudson Bay com pany haB,-for many years, entirely ex cluded spirits from tho fur countries of tho north, over which they havo exclusive control, "to tho great Im provement," as Sir John Richardson observed, "of the health and moralB of their Canadian servants and of the Indian tribes." Health By Training. Health-getting, for the chronlo in valid, Is simply a matter of training, of health culture under favorable condi tions, which include the discarding of all disease-producing habits, Buch as tho use of tobacco, tea, coffee and all irritating, indigestible and disease producing foods. The free uso of flesh foods is no doubt a causo 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 beBt method Is training. Weak muscles must bo trained to act with energy. Weak nerves must b toned up and steadied. The weak stomach must be trained to normal ac tivity and tho wholo body must be brought in harmony with tho forces which mako for health. Buttermilk for Consumptives. Buttermilk is an excellent food for tubercular patients. It may bo taken In tho quantity of one to threo quarts a day, according to tho amount ot other food taken. Tho patient may take two meals, three 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 a consumptive to go hungry. Ho should cat whenever ho has appetite, au ..,. iuii uiBu- jiunui ui iu 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 protest Don't try to buy appetlto at a dollar a bot tle. Earn It. One should enjoy eating and ho will, If ho has a natural appe tite, such as comes to ono who works for it. Tho outdoor lifo creates appetite, and a cold morning bath awakens the brain, lungs, heart, liver, stomach and tho appetite. An Ico bag over tho stomach for half an hour beforo meals Ib a good natural appetizer for a bed ridden invalid. Another mothod is a hot application over tho abdomen for flvo 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 Diet for Tuberculosis. The tubercular patlont needs pro telds, or tissue-building foods, but only just tho amount which can be assimi lated and utilized by. the body. Any oxcosb must be treated liko poisons, and hence must be a burden to both liver and kidneys, and a was to of vital energy. Protelds must bo taken, not only in moderate quantity, but in tho purest form possible. Tho vegetable kingdom presents protelds 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 blnatlon of fats and protelds which Is admirably suited to tho tubercular pa tlent Milk, especially rich milk, Is" another food adapted to this class ol patients when it does not produce "biliousness" through indigestion Many tubercular patients havo dlla tatlon ot 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 filberts, plnons, or plno nuts are the best varieties. Half a pound ol nuts may bo token dally by the 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. WHOLESOME RECIPES. Lentil and Nut Loaf To one pint of rather dry lentil pulp add ono cup of , grated Brazil nuts and sufficient stalo breadcrumbs to make a stiff mixture. Season with salt and sage If desired. Press Into a bread tin and bako in a slow oven ono hour or longer. Fruit Soup Into one cup of warm water put one rounding tablespoonful of sago and cook in a double boiler one-half hour. Then add two or three wholo cooked prunes, one-fourth cup stewed raisins, two tablespoonfuls stewed cranberries, ono teaspoonful lemon Julco and sugar to suit the taste. Allow it to heat until the fruit is hot, and servo. Vermicelli or pearl barl.ey may bo substituted for sago, and dried cherries, with strawberry and lemon Juice, used in place of tho fruits mentioned. Snowballs with Prunes Steam rice ono hour or until tender, then form into balls, with one large or two small prunes In tho center. Serve with a hot sauce made by warming for a few minutes one-half cup of meltose, to which the Julco of one lemon has been added and a little prune Juice to make It of a consistency to pour easily. (Banana and Nut Salad Feel three bananas and slice thin; add one-half cupful broken (not chopped) walnut meats. Pour over this two-thirds cup of the dressing and mix well. Serve on platters garnished with lettuce leaves. Peas Croquettes Boll until thor oughly done two cupfuls ot Scotch peas. Rub through a colander and add two well-beaten eggs, a little minced parsley, a small grated onion, salt to taste and dry bread crumbs enough to make quite stiff. Form Into croquettes, roll In beaten eggs and breadcrumbs and bake In oven about ten minutes. A cup of chopepd wal nuts will improve the croquettes. Savory Lentils Cook two cupfuls of lentils until 'well done. Rub through a colander and add Bait and sage to taBte.

Sinking Spelt, lleadachea, ItheumatUm, AH Cauted by l'oor Blood Cured.- Dr. Wllllama rink rilla. When Mrs. Williams was asked tor somo details of tho fearful illuoss from which she had so long suffered, she spoke as follows : ' ' Ever sinco I hod nervous prostration, about thirteen yoars ago, I have had periodical spells of completo exhaustion.

Tho doctor did mo bo littlo good that I gavo up his treatment, and really feared that my caso was incurablo." Wliat saved you from your Btato of hopelessness? " In July of 1003 I bad a very bad spell, and my husbaud camo iu ouo day with a little book which told of romark ablo cures effected by a romody for tho 1 hlood-and tho nerves, Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.

At the end of that timo I had regaiuod my health aud cheerfulness, and my friends say that I am looking better than I Lave douo for the past fifteen years." Mrs. Lizzie Williams is now living at No. 410 Oedar street. Qaincy, Illinois. The pills wliich she praises so highly, euro all diseases that come from im poverished blood.
