Health and Beauty
(By Dr. .Sophia Brunton)
TutwrcuioxU No. I
In spite of the fad that great effort
a are put forth by so many agcn*
ciea to aprend knowledge in regard
to tuberculoma, yet tire ignorance and
misapprehension that the average
person ban managed to accumulate
on the subject u discouraging, to .say
the least.
Kvery third person between fifteen
and -sixty years of age dies of tuber*
culo.sis. It kilts one out of every ten.
But you inquire, "Is not tuberculosis
decreasing?" Statistic* tell us that
it is growing le*h among men and
Women in middle lift*, but since the
craze for 'ho slender silhouette has
been rampant its ravages have increa>ed
t rightfully among young
g.rl-. They <iiet until they ure*path*
cli< ally uruiernourished, frail and
tbin. Their resistance to disease
broken down and their vitality so
" lowered that tin- germs find their
Lungs inviting soil in which to grow
and multiply. Fur this rea>on th<*
very skinny young things are an easy
mark for this rirtuyl disease. The
germ known hh loln-rcl.- baeeillus.
They manufacture and throw off
poisons which break down the surrounding
tissues. Its nature is to
-.pread, and if not checked it will
sooner or later destroy the lungs and
also the patient.
It is said that the baicili frequently
enters the body in ehildho-xi, and
are either destroyed by tin- ti-VUlcs
or remain latent awaiting a favorable
opportunity t<> begin their deadly
work. Bouchard, a noted French in- '
vestjglaor. said "Tin- healthy body
is not attractive to microbes," hence
as long as a person j-. not run down
in health he is not apt to contract
t uberruloHis.
Any cau-*<* .which lends to lowct
vitality breaks down resistance to the
disease. Work lor long hours in bad
air, overcrowding, dissipation, insufficient
sleep and rest, poor food,
pneumonia or influenza, all tend to
weaken the body and give the germs
an opportunity to develop.
The resistance to tuberculosis is
high in human beings and in some
ainmala. Many of the human victims
after acquiring.the disease live from
two to ten years.-. There is a form
of tuberculosis that the laity call
"galloping consumption" which progresses
with such great celerity that
the patient seldom survives beyond
f?lx months or a year.
Negroes have comparatively little
resistance to tuberculosis and usually
manifest the symptoms of the most
rapid and dangerous forms of the
disease. However, their resistance
to malaria is greater than that of
the Caucasian. The race doubtless
built up a comparative immunity
through the centuries in Afr;.:> where
' he most virulent forms uf malaria
ire prevalent.
Horatio Negro Killed
Timothy Washington, negro, died
at a local hospital Sunday from injuries
received in a fight with Tom
Connors, negro, at Horatio Saturday
night. According to reports of
the fatal affray, Washington was
advancing on Connors with a knife,
when the latter pirlcrrt up n rtirlc
of wood and struck him on the
head, fracturing hi-, skull.?Monday's

Cottyn Sold Cheaply
Mr. \V. A. Edwards, who farms
near DeKulb station, handed us a
| cotton ticket a few days a go and told
us we could use 4t in our fifteen
year ago column if we desired. Mr.
Edwards at one time owned land and
farmed in Saluda county. His brother
sold a bale of cotton on February
| 9, 1915, for the sum of GV4 cents
per pound, and after storage art
expenses had been deducted he realized
$25.90 for his bale. Mr. Edwards
thinks that if farmer? and business
went through with such prices
as that, we can again weather the
storm of small prices and the cry
of "hard times." -v
