BACTERIOLOGIST’S WARNING.
KEEP YOUR DISTANCE WHEN CONVERSING.
BY CABLE—PBESS ASSOCIATION—COPYBIGHT. LONDON, March 27. A warning against, the man who “talks' confidentially right into your face in the manner with which we are all familiar,” has been issued by Sir Kenneth Coadley, a baceriologist. “I know it looks impolite to sheer back and hold your head away, but this must not influence the listener,” •he says. “These people are very dangerous, because they may be suffering from a' disease not necessarily active. It is not generally realised that germs may be carried in the mouth and throat without the'conveyers suffering from disease. Nurses working in consumption hospitals may have the consumption microbe, in their mouths, though not suffering from it.”
