Immcnso Monetary Loss Caused the Country
by Its Ravages How to Retain
Health and Bodily Vigor
Cost 'of Tuberculosis.
Dr. Harmon IIIbr of New York
(American Medlelne), after a careful
estimation. placeH tho annual expoiiKO
of ttiberculoRlH to the peoplo of tlio
United States at J3.1O.OO0.OOO.OO. Ho
flmt calculates the Iohh to Now York
city by putting a value of ?l,r.OO upon
each life nt the nverugo nt which
deaths from tiiherculolH occur. This
given n total value of tho Uvea lost
annually of $1,600,000.00.
Hut this Is not nil. Kor nt least nine
months prior to death theso palloutfl
cunntit work, and the loss of boivIco
atone dollar a day, together with food,
minting, uiedlrlueK, nt tendance, etc.,
4f one and one-half dollar) a day, re
milts In a further loss of $8,000,000.00,
mnking a yearly loss to the munici
pality of $23,000,0(10.00. Kor tho whole
country the lGO.OOO deaths from tuber
miosis represent In the sumo way a
loss of $3:10,000.000.00.
Dr. Hlggs also mutes that the total
expenditure In tho city of New York
for the rare of tuberculous patients Is
not at piesent over ?GOO,000,00 a yeor;
that Is, It does not exceed two per cent
of tho actual loss by death, clc. "If
this ntuum! expenditure were doubled
or trebled It would mean n saving of
several thousand lives nunuully, to say
nothing of the enormous saving In suf
fering." Further evldenco of this Ih
afforded by the fact that In tho last
twenty years the total number of
deaths from tuberculosis In Now York
lias decreased Instead of Increasing,
although there has been an IncreaBO
of 70 per cent In the general popula
tion. Oil Rubbing.
Clothing exposes us to great dan
gers. We wear too many clothes.
We dress too warmly, so the skin be
comes relaxed, and lofes tho power to
take care of Itself, and this Is tho rea
son oil rubbing Is necessary. Tho
Blmple removul'of a thin layer of oil
oy a hot bath may be sufficient to
cause a man to take cold, so this must
be replaced by a special oiling, or
some othejr treatment, In cold weath
er. People who aro very susceptible to
cold, should bo rubbed with oil after
euch bath. Oil rubbing Is especially
needed In cases In which tho Bkln Is
dry, through deficient activity of tho
oil glands of the skin. Great care,
however, should bo taken to avoid too
vigorous rubbing In tho application of
tho oil, as sweating Is very easily pro
duced, to the disadvantage of tho pa
tient. In tho treatment of Infants and
children, n marked and most favor
able effect upon nutrition Is produced
y oil rubblug. Application of oil
after cold baths encourages reaction.
In most cases of chronic dyspopsla
when accompanied by emaciation, In
diabetes, and In moat cases In which
malnutrition with dryness of tho skin
Is prominent foaturo, oil rubbing Is
ft valuablo curatlvo agoncy.
' Horrors of the Cocaine Habit,
t Tho following Illustration of bad ad
vice in tho lecture room Is probably
not nn exceptional case. A professor
of materia medlca lecturing on cocaino
called It one of tho greatest of all
stimulants and perfectly harmless.
Ho cited his own experience of Us
good effects, and advised tho class to
test It personally In debility and ex
haustion. Of a class of thirty-two who
listened to this advice, flvo became
cocaine takers within two years. Ton
years later thirteen of this class wero
drug and spirit takers. In all prob
ability, the use of cocaino was tho
starting point of their addictions.
Four died from tho direct uso of tills
drug. Evldontly moro than half the
class had followed tho advico of tho
teacher and were wrecked. A few
years after, tho professor became an
Invalid and retired from the profes
sion, a victim of his own counsel and
confidence In cocaine.
When anything is growing, ono
formatory is worth moro than a thou
sand reformatories. Horace Mann.
Tuberculosis Rightly Classed.
The Health department of tho city of
Philadelphia has decided that In future
tuberculosis shall be classed with
other diseases that are dangerous to
the public health, such as smallpox,
diphtheria, scarlet fever, and other
contagious maladies. Tho law in
Pennsylvania and most other States of
the Union requires that every caso of
contagious disease shall be reported
to the Health department. Hereafter
all cases of tuberculosis must bo so
reported by tho attending physician.
The purpose of this law Is to enable
.the Health department to take neces
sary steps to prevent tho extension of
this disease by disinfection of the
apartments which have been occupied
by the patient, and by instruction of
the patient and the patient's friends
how infection from the disease may be
avoided.
This law is a good one. and ought
to be enforced In every civilized com
munity. Body and mind are both gifts, and
for the proper use of thorn our Maker
will hold us responsible.
Simple Living and Longevity of the

they hnmv no drink hut wnter; wero
not tempted to drink or oat beyond

"Many of theso wore said, nt tho

This wax wit limit doubt on exagger

there was an obi woman living In Itlo

Heauty of form anil face nre the nat

Frequency of Tuberculosis.
Krom tho Massachusetts Medical
Journal we abstract the following: At
the socond nnnunl American Congress
on Tuberculosis held In Now York In
1002, Dr. Pryor stated that H.000 per
sons die annually In tho Stntc of New
York of this disease. One-sixth of all
tho deaths In tho world are duo to this
ono disease. Statistics show that In
France 150,000 die every year of this
disease; In Germany, 170,000; in tho
United States, IGO.000; In Paris, 11,
000; In London, 13,000; New York
City. 9,000.
Of deaths between the agCH of fif
teen and forty, luborculosls claims one
third; between fifteen and thirty-five,
one-half. Tho mortality from tubercu
losis alone exceeds that of war, plague,
cholera, famine, yellow fever and
smallpox.

Providence has allotted us each nt

Nervous exhaustion invites disease.
This statement is the positive truth.
When everything becomes a burden
and 3'ou cannot walk a few blocks with
out excessive fatigue, and you break
out into perspiration easily, and your
face flushes, and you grow excited and

you cannot bear to be crossed in any
thing, you are in danger; your nerves
have given out; you need building up
