Tuberculosis

Excerpt from Tuberculosis: Its Cause, Cure and Prevention In the following pages an attempt has been made to present the simple facts of tuberculosis in such a form as will be intelligible and interesting to the layman. A decade or more ago, no one would have entertained the idea of publishing a popular book upon this subject; but since that time the great Crusade against tuberculosis has become so universal and prominent, that to-day the subject excites the deepest interest in almost every community, and the people are everywhere eager to learn the essential facts with regard to its cause and cure. Many things have been repeated advisedly, as the subject has been viewed from different standpoints. Naturally there still remain unsettled problems upon tuberculosis; but the narrative has been presented in the light of the present knowledge of the subject, and with an absolute adherence to definitely established facts.
