HOW TO CURE CONSUMPTION. It one of the Most Curable of Chronic Diseases In its Early Stages. Important Advice.

Consumption is curable. This does not mean that every case of consumption can be cured. Advanced cases yield very slowly to treatment if at all. It does not mean that anyone haring consumption will get well without making the supreme effort of his life. Merely hoping to get well will avail little.

To cure even an early case of consumption requires an unyielding determination on the part of the patient that he will live accordingly to well defined sanitary and hygienic laws. Tho first step in the cure of the disease Is to recognize that the disease exists. Once established, make no effort to dodge the fact: Then away with the idea that the illness is "only a deep seated cold'' or "simply a bad case of stomach trouble." The Issue must be squarely met. Remember that early cases of consumption are frequently diagnosed as malaria, dyspepsia, etc. Better far, to take the view that the trouble Is consumption and find out later that it Is malaria or something else, than to underestimate the importance of the trouble.

The second step is to provide a place for living and sleeping out in the open air. By all means live out of doors In the open air and sunshine Whenever the weather permits. If you can't camp out, put up a tent. In your door yard or in the back yard, build a sun parlor on the south side of your house, or enclose a porch as a sleeping apartment. Don't permit tho sides of the tent be down, or the windows of your sun parlor, porch or sleeping apartments to be closed except to exclude rain or snow.

Proper diet Is of the greatest importance In the treatment of consumption. Consumption is a wasting disease. To counteract this tendency and build up the body It is absolutely necessary that the consumptive be given nourishing foods In abundance. Milk and raw eggs are perhaps the best articles of diet known for this purp6se Individual cases will differ greatly, but in general, -a consumptive will need approximately the following daily allowance of food two to three quart of milk, three to eight eggs, four to eight ounces of meat, six to eight ounces of bread, one helping each Of cereal, potatoes, and pudding, tw to four apples and the Juice of a lemon. Some patients will be able to increase this allowance 50 per cent or even more, while others will do better on perhaps 25 per cent less.

Plenty of rest Is absolutely necessary. Keep a careful tab on the body temperature and if the evening temperature runs as high as 100, decrease the amount of physical exertion to half. Above'all things, avoid patent medicines, cough cures, "consumption and whiskey or other alchoholic drinks. Be cheerful, keep clean, bathe follow the lnsiiucilons of a competent physician, and your chances for recovery will be excellent. For further Information on this subject write to the State Board of Health at Raleigh for literature or to the National Association for the Study and prevention of Tuberculosis, at New York.

(Owing to the fact that some errors appeared la this article last week, and a great many people want to file it away, it is reproduced with the corrections made.)
