DISEASE CARRIERS.
BACTERIOLOGISTS’ WARNING. London, Mar. 27. A warning against the man who ‘‘ talks confidentially right into your face in a manner with which wo are all familiar” was issued by Sir Kenneth Goadley, bacteriologist. “I know it looks impolite to sheer back and hold the head away, but this must not influence the listener,” he says. “These people are very dangrous, because they may be suffering from a disease which is not necessarily active. It is not generally realised that germs may be carried in the mouth and throat without the conveyors suffering from the disease. Nurses working inconsumption hospitals may have the consumption microbe in their mouths, though not suffering from it.”—(A. and N.Z.)
