of the wage earners," said Dr. Flick,
and this is so for tho very good rea
son that one of tho strongest predis
posing causes of tho disease Is over
work. It Is an exceedingly fatal and
prevalent disease among workers."
Dr. nick pointed' out that tho rea
son why the wngo earner Is so likely
to contract tuberculosis is that In
many Instances ho Is overworked, he
tolls in unsanitary workshops and
often times ho Is underfed, which
causes his powers of resistance to be
less a hi u to throw off nn Implantation
of tubercle bacilli. Ho refuted tho
theory of infection from Inheritance-,
saying that unless the tuberculosis
micro-organism is admitted Into our
bodies it Is tni)osslblo for one' to be
come Infected.
