CURE OF CONSUMPTION.
PARISIAN DOCTOR’S ADVICE. By Electric Telegraph—Copyright Times and Sydney Sun Services. Paris, May 30. Dr. Guelph, a leading physician of Paris, writing to the Revue, advocates the confining of consumptives in health compounds'. They should, he says, bo forbidden to lead a city life. He also points out that people suffering from tuberculosis will not, when first attacked by the disease, willingly live hygienic lives in the country, but, being confident that they will bo cured, remain in the crowded cities, spreading the disease
until they die.
The only effective way of dealing with the difficulty is for the State to keep them in homes for several years. Even then, when they are allowed to return to the populous centres, they should be kept under strict Government supervision.
