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.
