Although the sun may well be called the greatest friend to the general health of mankind, yet in the tropics its benefits are not unalloyed. Many of the worst forms of tropical diseases are chargeable to the intense beat of the sun's too direct rays. Fe- vers require treatments involving arti- ficial lowering' of the temperature by such means as ice packs or evaporation from moist sheets,- yet lee is enavai1- able to a degree in most tropical coon• tries, The result is es expected, The fever patients quickly die in the tor- tures of high temperatures which' can- not bo relieved. Again the direct sun rays may be charged with the sapping of normal human energy in the tropics. Sun- stroke, anaemia, physical and nervous debility, inability, to take proper exer- cise and the resultant disorders—all May be charged to theaccount of our friend the sun when he outdoes him- self in kindness. On the other hand, the sunlight in the tropics is the best and practically only disinfectant of easy application in destroying disease bacteria, vermin and the like. 'Mosquitoes cannot breed in the tropical stunllght, bot must seek the scanty shade to prolong their ana- lai'ial activities. Tuberculosis bacteria will not live ten minutes when exposed to the tropical sun, whereas they will live for hours and days in ttie shade. The tropical sun quickly dries and turas to sterile dust all forms of moist filth and decaying animal matter. It tends to disinfect and heal the sores of most human diseases whose infec- tion would spread in the shade. The sun may also be credited with the salvation of the lives of most half savage natives of tropical countries, who,praetieally never bathe and whose `skins would be disease breeding grounds were it -not for the disinfect= ing power of the intense heat..
