now doing in their ignorance of the

trate it; yet people will ineist on forc.
fig food of that kind down their chit-
in dren's throats, and when the poor
children teulfer the mothers try to stop
thele from crying by giving thein
more starchy food. Ie it any wonder
they die? It is not mturnl for a child
to die, because it is young and has all
the elements of vitality in it, This
ale slaughter of the innocents, this terri-
ble death rate among children, is
something • the government should
take up.
The resolution before us to -day I
regard as one of the most important
ever brought before this House, and
3,00 1 am sure it will have far-reaching
.23 effects. The people living in this
country twenty years hence will, I
have no doubt, look back in wonder
and pity at the time when the Cana-
dian people spent hundreds of thou-
sands of dollars every year to bring in
half-crazy Russians and other foreign-
ers to take the place of their own poor
dead children, whose lives might have
been saved by the expenditure of
about one-tenth of the money. Take
one single preventable disease as an
example, Not many years ago con-
sumption was looked upon as heredi-
tary and incurable. Those who were
afflicted with it looked forward to
3•) nothing but death; they did not think
an it was possible that they could get
ly any assistance. Ignorantly and un -
ft consciously they spread the disease
ed in every direction. But since that
al great German ,professor, Dr. Koch,
ed has discovered the germ of the disease,
st the tubercular bacillus, great changes
e. have taken place. Consumption, if
d taken in its first or incipient stages.
for is not only now considered curable,
he but'it has been found that, with the
g exception of some races and families
re born with physical defects and weak-
ce ened constitutions, the children of
ty consumptive parents, if removed to
e healthy surroundings immediately af-
is ter birth, are no more susceptible to
o- the disease than others. But although
r. consumption is not strictly hereditary,
x- it is very easily and readily cominuni-
e cable. An ignorant or.careless patient
nt expectorates, and the sputa which is
n comparatively harmless while moist,
n soon becomes dry and disintegrated,
nt and escapes into the atmosphere in
m the form of very fine dust. This pass-
t- es into the lungs of those unfortunate
d enough to breath that germ -laden air.
for When the tubercular bacilli pass into
d the lungs they are retained and in-
n. vigorated by the moisture and heat of
of the body, and in some cases increase
ar with appalling rapidity. It has been
t- estirnated that a single patient in the
t last stages of consumption will dis-
e tribute seven thousand million - of
it these bacilli in a single day. The
e- mind of man can scarcely grasp the
val meaning of such a number. Think of
e what a menace such a person is to the
e community. Naturally we are afraid
n of savage animals, such as bears,
a wolves and rattle snakes, but all the
f wild animals and venomous serpents
11 in the Dominion of Canada do not
- destroy' one -thousandth part of the
ell number of people killed by these Gon-
d sumptive germs. Nearly one death
- out of every ten in the Dominion of
- Canada is caused by tubercular bacilli.
fe A bonus is being given by the govern-
, ment for the destruction of wolves.
d Why should not the government give
d a reward for the discovery of some
t system or process which, without in-
jury to the patient, would destroy or
- prevent the distribution of ttibercular
e bacilli? That would be an easy mat-
. ter ; it would not cost a great deal,
a and it might have wonderful results.
e Sanitaria have already accomplished
- a wonderful work, and they have been
g the source of a great deal of useful
- information to the people at large,
s but it is well to remember that if
e every sanitarium in the Dominion of
d Canada were now filled to its fullest
d capacity, forty-nine out of every fifty
, consumptives would still be abroad in
the country spreading the disease.
Many a poor man, the bread -winner
. of his family, is compelled to work on
s and on, a menace to his companions
e in the shop or the faetory, until with-
in a few days of his death, for he `has
s not sueicient Inoney to pay his way
to a sanitarium, let alone support his
- family during his absence. Therefore
I would say to the members of the
government, something must be done
to aid the poor man in his home if we
are to conquer this terrible malady.
The people, as the hon. member for e
Hants has said, must be warned and
must be instructed. They must be t
taught that the destruction of the 1
sputa, while moist and comparatively
harmless, is of the utmost importance,
They must also he taught that sun.
light, fresh air, cheerful company and
good food are important factors in the f
treatment, Nearly fifty thousand of f
the people of Canada are afieted with
this disease at the present time ; ten t
thousand of our inhabitants die from e
its effects every year. The'' govern-
ment are spending vast sums of
money to prevent the spread of tuber= y
culosis among cattle. Surely the peo- o
ple of Canada will sanction the ex- t
pendttere of an equal stun to prevent c
the spread of that terrible disease
among themselves. The government
spend hundreds of thousantle of dol-
lars every year to bring in itnmt.

come and breeding place of thes
arms. The hon. gentletnan has give

he manner in which typhoid bacii
re conveyed from one person to an
ther, and of the fearful danger whic
• incurred by drinking contaminate
ater. The slaughter of the inno

Toned and the fearful loss of li
mong infant children, is mostly due

he French government appointed

vkdence in various parts of the coup

ated that the death rate in Franc
as mostly due to the very great an
xcessive number of children who die
efore they were one year of age
hich bears out the contention which
e hon. gentleman (Mr. Black) has so
bly presented to the House to -day
he report went on to say that thi
ight be prevented -by instructing th
others not to use foul bottles, not to
e bottles with long rubber neck
den with germs, and that the bottles
could be thoroughly disinfected be
re being used. The report went on
explain that children should not
t starchy food before they were one
ar old; that they should have teeth
fore they are given such food, for,
a kind Providence had intended
at infant children should eat the
oducts of wheat and of corn he
ould have given them teeth to eat
with.
But people insist on feeding to in-
nts starchy food, which is not suita-
o for their digestion. There is no
rmer or cheese -maker in Canada
ho does clot know that a calf's
ontach is very different from that of
cow. He would not think of feeding
calf on hay, because he knows that
ilk is the natural food of a calf. In
e same way y milk is the natural and
oper food fora child, and it should
t be fed on starchy food. I pre•
me that in the Garden of Eden

eves no roller troll, so that if
dam and Eve ate wheat at all, they
ust have ground it in their mouths

ly What many of ntlr people are
or
recti, or leper houses, in Europe.
Ninety-five of These were in the
I3ritish isles. But even in that untu-
tored and unlettered age, by isolation
alone, that horrible disease was
almost entirely stalnped out of the
country. The last l3ritish leper died
in the Shetland islands 109 years ago.
It is therefore plain that not only con-
sumption, but typhoid fever -a disease
which need not at all exist -small-
pox, anthrax, diphtheria, scarlet
fever, measles, whooping cough and a.
host of other diseases can be absolute-
ly prevented if the people of this coun-
try aro really in earnest- and the gov-
ernment will do their duty. There
are other diseases for the prevention
of which a great deal might be done,
We should have a commissioner of
health appointed, whose duty it
would be to distribute information
and give people instruction regarding
the laws of health. For example,
there are a great many people in this
country, not engaged in active manu-
al labour, but in sedentary employ-
tnent which keeps them indoors -.-the
great majority of these people eat too
much. They take a greater quantity
of food into their system than is re-
quired. Only a certain portion of this
can be assimilated. Tho balance goes
to decay and rot in the system, It
generates irritating acids and other
poisonous materials which injure the
health. The eliminating organs are
continually over-worked, and the
result is diseases, such as indigestion,
cancer, gall stones, kidney diseases,
which could be easily prevented.
Take the case of a common cold as a
simple example, Any medical man
will tell you that a cold is generally
caused in this way. There are 2,000
little pores, open doors, as it were, in
every single inch of t;t" human skin.
When you go into the cold, the pores
contractt
and be o n
C t e closed. Nature
u
generally throws out an immense
amount of refuse from the system
through the skin, but when those
pores are closed up that material has
to go elsewhere. If you follow the
skin on. the outside, over your lips,
down through your throat, and all the
way down through the tubes into the
lungs, yon will find a skin called the
mucous membrane on the inside.
That is not exposed to cold, its pores
are not closed up, and the material
that should be thrown outside the
system is thrown through these
unclosed pores on the lungs and this
creates a cold. If that material comes
so quickly that you cannot get rid of
it, you have inflammation of the
lungs. The proper remedy would be
to open the 'pores. If people under-
stood exactly what caused a common
cold, they would know that all they
have to do is to open the pores, Let
them take a large quantity of fluid
into the system, and if they go to bed
they will have a profuse perspiration.
But the great mass of the people
think that they do not need to take
any fluid. They take a sweating pow-
der without the fluid, and that weak-
ens them.
Some hon. MEMBERS. What kind
of fluid ?
Mr. T. CHISHOLM. Water, There
are some people who take too much
fluid of the wrong kind, I adroit, but
there are a good many others who do
not take enough fluid of the right
kind. It is just as necessary that we
should take a snf oient amount of
fluid as that we should not take too
great a quantity of food. As a medi-
cal man, I frequently found an old
lady come to see me and complain of
certain troubles, and I say to her :
You are drinking too tnuch tea per-
haps. Oh no, she would reply, I only
just drink three little cupfuls -a small
one at breakfast, another at noon and
another at night. ''No other fluid," I
would say, and she would answer "no
snore." I could have told her that
nature required that she should take
about eight or ten cupfuls every day
to carry off the refuse; but by putting
the question the way I did, she would
say she only took a small quantity
and then wonder that she was not
welt. A great many take too much
fluid at the wrong time. If they
would take a good drink of hot or
even cold water, for that matter. they
would find that it would do a great
deal more good.
We should have an officer of the
government whose duty it would be
to spread information which would
assist the people in guarding against
disease.
After spending a lifetime in the
praetice of my profession, I am satis-
fled that far more than half of the
diseases and deaths before sixty years
of age in this country can be prevent -
d. The people must understand
what the laws of health aro and what
he laws of nature are, They mnst be
nstrueted in those laws. There is not
stn old man going around the country
with a steam engine and thresher
who Will not tell you that when the
machine stops, he must take away the
uel. But you will get any amount of
armers who, after working hard all
their lives, come into town to take
hings easy, They bring their femu-
rs' appetites with thele, they eat too
mucic, and the Consequence is their
tverage life in the town is only five
ears. If people understood the laws
f health and tvonlcl follow thein out,
hat would bo a great benefit to the
oantt•y. They must be taught to
understand that although they may
break the lame of the land and avoid
detection and punishment, there Is no
way of escaping the consequences if
they break the laws of nature.
However Mr.

there are several gentlemen to follow
the, and as I have taken more time
than I intended, T shall now eoneittde
and hav

inept will see thele way to support it
and take steps to give it practical
