;-c " ' ^ ... ? consumpt: P Facts all Since the discovery of the germ of tuberculosis (or, as it is c<>mmonly called consumption), by Dr. Kock, iii 1882, a most careful study has been made of every phase of the disease. When we realize that the deaths from tuberculosis are one-fifth of the number of deaths from all other diseases, the importance of studying the subject is understood. The result of the investigations which have been undertaken simultaneously in many countries establish facts regarding tuberculosis which all should know, in order that they may prevent the sprfead of the disease by protecting themselves and their families from it. All over this country antituberculosis societies are springing up, their object to educate the people and to establish sanitariums for consumptives. According to the latest scientific investigation, tuberculosis is a chronic, infectious, communicable, preventable and curable disease. I' ' It is chronic when the patient lingers for several years. It is eommunicable through the germ, which is most commonly found in the sputum or expectoration of the consumptive. It is transmitted from man to man, from man to beast, from beast to mau. The sources of infection are: first by inhalation. A consumptive spits on the floor, on the street, or in a banderchief. When this consumptive spittle dries and is trodden to powder; it is inhaled by a person in a susceptible condition; that is, one is just recovering from some illness or who has been exposed to severe weather or labor or - mental strain that has exhausted the system, or one who is underfed, and he gets tuberculosis. A person in vigorous health ex posed to the contagion may throw it off. But wheu you res' member that an advanced consumptive can disseminate seven billion baccilli or germs in twenty-four hours, if he is permitted to do so there is not much chance of even a healthy person escaping the contagion. Second, by taking the bacillus iuto the system by meat or milk from a tuberculous animal. Third, by inoculation or receiving the genu tnrouga me bmu. 1/1. Knopf gives the following illustration of this method: A devoted servant has a tuberculous master, and he used r a porcelain spittoon whioh was nicked and half broken. The girl scratched herself. The tuberculous substauce ? mingled with the scratch and she became inoculated with tuberculosis. Fourth by the tiny drops of saliva that fly from the lips of oue who is coughing and reach the mouth of some f... one standing near. It is established beyond dispute that careless expectoration is the chief eaune of the increase aud spread of the disease both to the public in general and to the consumptive himself. The consumptive should expectorate into large _ piece of paper or cloth which should be immediately burned. As long as the spittle is wet it cannot mingle with the atmosphere and be inhaled. Consumptives should never kiss a person, nor should they allow anyone to use the glass, spoon, fork, cup, anything that has in anyway come in contact with their iios. A consumptive mother may give the disease to her f - child by kissing it or by tasting its food and allowing the child to use the U> same spoon or bottle. On the street consumptives should spit into a piece . of cloth or paper return it to the pocket and burn it before it has time to dry. "When the fingers or mouth have been wiped upon the clothes or upon anything that cannot be boiled the article should be placed in the hot sun for some time. Consumptive ba cilli may live for months in a dark place, but they are destroyed in from fifteen minutes to an hour in the rt?ys of the sun. Therefore in the patients room and every room in the house . should be thrown wide open for at least a part of every day, as nothing is more destructive to disease genus of V every sort than the sunlight. Throw the shutters and windows wide open and let in the fresh air and sunshine it you wish to live in a healthy, happy home. To much stress cannot be laid upon the subject of expectoration. The patient who uses a handkerchief again t- 1 and again carries to his lips the bacilli that comes from the diseased portion of his lung, and so infects the healthy part while the most robust person is not safe where the dried spittle is floating in the atmoshere or by inhalation ol dried spittle swept and dusted, and when moving feet stir up the germs. A person is much eafer in a sanitarium with consumptives who are conscientious about spitting and who cover the mouth with the hand when coughing which is what, everyone should i; do, than is a home or hall or crowded % city street car with people going about spitting everywhere. It has been demonstrated that the germ is not found in the breath of the consumptive. It is only in the spittle. It is also believtd by the majority of physicians today that consumption is not inherited. The children of con sumptives are weak aud so predisposed to take it. Where very young babies have died of it, many scientists believe the germs were introduced after birth in the mother's miik or by inhalation of dried spittle or by the mother's kiss. In regard to meat aud milk the inspectors of cattle in cities are urged to do their work thoroughly aud weed out all tuberculosis. Suspected meat should be thoroughly cuoked and milk should be sterilized or boiled before using. Especially is this necessary for babies unless the mo'her knows that the milk comes from a perfectly healthy cow. Inoculation should be treated by al t iOWlDg ice HCraiCU ur wuuuu iu uieeu freely, dress it with alcohol and get a doctor to treat it with some germ-killing preparation. The following rules prepared by Dr. Knopf should be thoroughly learned by all school teachers and school chil*ij?n. iSvery child and adult can help to fight consumption. School children can be helpful by complying wilh the following rules: Do not spit except in a spittoon or in a cloth or handkerchief used for that purpose alone. On your return home have the cloth or handkerchief burned or put into water until ready for the wash. Never spit on a slate, floor, sidewalk or playground. Do not put your fingers in your mouth. Do not pick your nose or wipe it on your hand or sleeve. Do not put pencils into your mouth or wet them with your lips. Do not hold money in your mouth. Do not put pins in your mouth. Do not put anything in your mouth except food and drink. Do not swap apple cores, candy, Chewing gum, half eaten food, whisBr* nbrif itfil -- ? "Ai . [ON. I should know.) ties, bean-blowers, or auything that. Is! put in the mouth. lJeel or wash your fruit before eating it. Never cough or sneeze in a person's face. Turn your face to one side, and hold a handkerchief over your mouth. Keep your face and hands and finger nails clean aud wash your hands with soap and water before each meal. When you do not feel well, have cut yourseif or have been hurt by others, "don't bo afraid to report it to the teacher. Tneseare very simple rules which any child can compreheud aud obey. There is more hope for the consumpIUui, mroi-hofura 'Phe 11VC luuay iijaucvti wi<?v> ? meut is fresh air day and night. Tbe patients who are cured under the new treatment live out of doors day and night. Put your beds out on an ui>per porch and sleep in tbe fresh air summer and winter. Of course the patient must be kept warm by plenty of cover and hot water bottles in cold weather. Cover the head, leave only tbe nose exposed to inhale the pure air. This is what thousands are doing aud being cured by doing. A cbauge of climate is not necessary. Fresh air aud sunshine, pleuty of rich, nourishing food, milk: meat, eggs, taken often and in as large quantities as can be digested. Do not take patent medicines. Go to some reputable physician aud let bim prescribe for you. Patent medicines are largely made up of alcohol, and the new treatment of consumption condemns the use of alcohol. It is proven by statistics that more alcohol is used in patent medicines than whiskey sold over the bar. Sunshine, fresh air night and day, fair weather or foul, plenty of uourisb- _ ing food to build up tbe system, aud 8~ freedom from all worry?these arenec- w mire of nonsLimotion. I?. CCOCllJ. .V. U1 When the patient has fever let him re- a] main in bed. When free from fever ac gentle exercise is beneficial. tj To guard against tuberculosis keep the young people in the fresh air as much as possible. If you have a cough- g. ing friend- or neighb or give him this c| article to read, that ne may learn how to take care of himself and protect his K neighbors. ? Dr. Knopf, in his address in the city ^ of Louisville, said : w "Consumption is cured nowadays t( not by patent medicines, but by the jj judicious use of God's pure fresh air fc] for twenty-four hours out of the ; twenty-four. To be afraid of the night ai>- is a nightmare. Night air in cities SI is better than the day, because there is 0 less traffic, less dust, less commotion, ??i1 Smiliorht. whenever ?v -! o--F u you can have it, cold and warm pure ? water, inside and outside, aud plenty Sl of it; good food, simple food but good j food, aud the constant care and super- ^ vision of a good physiciau. If thsee hygienic aud dietetic rules do not of w themselves suffice to cure a patient, give him a little medicine now and then. Can you not have all these in your own city? Can you not have God's pure fresh air and water, pure and clean, if you filter your water bere, and plenty of food? You have them p all iu this city. Your climate is jusl lt as good and as suitable for the cure of oi consumption. It is not necessary for ** you to seDd your patients out to Colorado. Colorado is an excellent place for a number of patients in the earlier stages, but is not so good particularly ^ when tbey want to stay here. I am of very frank about this. I do not agree in this rtapect with a number of my w colleagues, I believe that if a patient ci can be cured in his own home and ^ climate, even though it takes a few u months longer than it would in Colo- ri rado, he will stay cured, and a great many patients sent out to Colorado and u California will come back and get a re-!_ lapse, therefore, I plead for home ? climate. Do not misunderstand me. ei I do not depreciate the value of alti- 01 tude, sunshine of pure air ni these w favorite resorts for the consumptive; ^ it is a great advautage, but we cannot b< all have California or Colorado or North Carolina climate. We must p, make the best of what we have, and ?i then the majority of our patient* cau- ?J not go to California or Colorado. The bi majority of our patients are the labor- at ing classes, and those we must care V( for, treat and cure in the same climate r, in which they will have to live and d labor after their restoration to health. ^ I heg you, do not be discouraged about your climate." at 01 LOWNDESVILLE. I Tbe last half of this year opened up in fiery blast. Yesterday was very bot, and as this and next month here- qi tofore have been the hottest in the a year, it is hoped that this year will ^ prove an exception. s< One of our most popular resorts, one J - - a.t- ?!n rn i I.. |! mat is aiviaing nonors wnii xuc&ers aI Ferry, in Greggs Shoals, on theSavan- di nab Kiver, about eight miles from this 'J place, where a dam is being built j* across the river, for the purpose of <-? generating electricity which is to be oi carried to Abbeville, Greenville and ^ perhaps other places. The line will th pass through this place, but it has not "i as yet been decided as to whether we will be benefitted by getting electric lights, etc., or not. The work will be rapidly pushed, over or near three hundred hands being there at work. i?i Many of our summer visitors, a good many of whom were brought tiere ot because of the Huckabee-Barber wed- ne ding festivities have returned to their TJ homes, and the town and community have lapsed iuto their normal quiet. ag Messrs. Amon Wilson, of this place, and Jessie Bell, of Carswell, are studying Telegraphy under Mr. II. \V.

Troupe. v? % Timet* Clianife. (Laurens Advertiser.) our esteemed cod temporary, The Abbeville ress and Banner, continues to talk about te combination of preachers, blind timers and there iD tbe cause of prohibition. Our couuoporary In entirely mistaken In tbe /acts ad we do not believe that It wishes to Ignore ie facts. Here is evidence: The Klchland distilling company Is owned 3d run. not by "roblbltlonlsls, but by twen' men. Tbe influences which proceed from ils company are among the main bulwarks the dlc|.ensary and tbe company has sold le dispensary as much as a million dollars ortb of whiskey In a yewr. The Press and Banner will find that in Qarleuton where the blind tigers are most umerous, the dispensary is in close (ouch itb them and It will And, If It will Inquire, tat the blind tigers of Charleston are as a ileadvocato of the dispensary ayslem, This ay seem queer but It Is true. In Charleston le dispensary is Mary and the tigers are her ttle lamb. Tbe Press ana Banner will also find that at astoneoltbe last State board of control as In the whiskey business before he was ected to tbe board. It will And also that ie member ol the present board was In the hlskey business before his election. We are entirely willing loadmlt that In the irly days of the dispensary It was opposed y rnoHt of tbe former bar keepers but that Is 3t tbe case now. On tbe oontrary some of te bar-keepers are now beer dissnsers, others are whiskey drummers id practically all of tbem who are not dead have left tbe state are earning a livelihood Whnflfl hrpari T pju.. Jl U1 iur U lOpcunoi j ( ? . , In song I sing, "?so tbey are now dispensary ivooates. The advocacy of the dispensary Is the ad.icacy of the whiskey men who live beyond uuth Carolina'* borders, of the Richland istilllng Company and of the Charleston Und tigers and " old bar-room element" or hat's left of It. The people who are shouting for the dispeniry this year are simply pulling chestnuts it of the fire for Blumenthal & Rlckert, Bam anahan, Bernbelmer, Farnum, the Klchland IstllllDg Company and other liquor dealers, hese firms and men have simply oome into aiitb Carolina and have taken charge of the uuth Carolina dispensary. Now let us ask the Press and Banner this uestlon. Why Is it not willing to have In bbevllle county a dispensary system in ependent of counties, doing its own buylnr 3d selling,Just as does that in Athens, Ga.? snator Tillman got bis idea from Athens, here's no graft in the Athens dispensary, makes more money proportionate! v, so we *e informed, than do the South Carolina spensarles? because there Is no dishonesty, oesnotthe Press and Banner believe that te Abbeville dispensary would be conducted ist as well if it br<d nothing to do with a con rn In Columbia? And has Abbeville any >jectlon to Anderson having prohibition all its time If Anderson votes It and wants it? 'ltb the Athens, Ga.. system In Abbeville le whisky would still be Bold only In dayght. hours as now, only In original packages a half pint or over and no drinking would a allowed on the premises The only change that THE ADVERTISER urging Is that the State Whisky Store In Mumbla be abolished.?What Is the necespy for the store.
