taneous reaction, it is possible to determine
in twenty-four hours whether an infected
person is suffering from human or
bovine tuberculosis, thus allowing imm?v- (

How It Is Done.
Of. Detre explains that the method advanced
by himself consists in the innoeulatlon
of the patient's arm at three
different points at the same time: first
with Koch's tuberculin, second with a
fiitrate of broth culture of human bacilli,
third with a filtrate of a broth culture of
hovine bacilli.
Within twenty-four hours the results of
three reactions will be noted, and the
physician is abie to observe which type
of bacillus caused reaction. Tie can also

Rivalry for Frizes.
Considerable interest is centered upon
the New York city health department exhibit
at the congress since the exhibition
was demonstrated by Cornelius J. Tyson
last night. There is a nice little silent
war between the several New York state
j and city exhibits, as they are after all the
1 prizes thev can eet. The charitv orranl
! zations' exhibit has spent more money j
than the health department exhibit, but |
the latter is confident that its educational
leaflet will win a prize for it.
One of the startling methods of New
York city in dealing with consumptives is
to practically arrest any consumptive who
balks at proper treatment. New York's
medical inspectors are empowered to
take patients by force, if necessary, and
place them in a sanatorium. Mr. Tyson
has photographs showing how they do it
in New Y'ork.
New Y'ork wants to show the world that
it has the ideal health department when
it comes to fighting tuberculosis, and although
there are several other big cities
which will not allow the palm to get away
without a struggle. Father Knickerbocker
is doing all he can to be the leader. New
York's big Otlsville sanatorium in the
Catskills. which is going to cost a million
dollars and which will accommodate
patients when completed, was shown last
night through the medium of many water i
color pictures and photographs. It comprises
a little city in itself, ami is used for
itfipient cases.
New York has a pleasant section known
to the health officers as the "lung block."
It is in the Kast Side tenement section, of
I course, bounded by Catherine. Market,
Monroe and Cherry streets. The city map ]
j shows this to be so dotted with the red
and blue marks, indicating consumption j
cases, that hardly any room is left for |
more dots. Whenever an officer of the
1 health department finds a case he iinme|
diately spots It on the department map.
J The section known as Chinatown is well
J spotted.
New York Promises Sensation.
New York is going to cause a sensation
1 here, so think the exhibitors, when the
; new Calmette test is shown. Dr. Calj
mette of IJlle. France, has discovered that
' doubtful cases of tuberculosis may be
i tested by a very novel method. A solution
known to the doctors as a "one per
cent solution of tuberculin" is droDued
; In the suspect's eye. If the conjunctiva of
the eye becomes red after twenty-four
hours there is sure to he tuberculosis in
the patient's system. This test has been
In use in New York for several months,
ami it is said to be new.
New York has open-air stereoptieon lee
tures in the parks in the summer and in!
vites the public. Every school child reI
celves a printed notice giving; the date and
| place of the lecture, and they are urged
i to bring their parents. An effort is made
to teach school children the terrors of
consumption and a small primer, in simple
language, is circulated among the
schools. Emphasis is laid on the fact that
I 'consumption cures" do not cure and that
i the proper thing to do in case of consump!
tion is to take advantage of toe free !
j sanitoria.

The Straus milk exhibit is of great interest
to every woman who comes into
tije museum, and especially to mothers
and riT?es. The great system of pasteurized
milk laboratories which Nathan
Straus is responsible for in the city of
New York was thoroughly explained to a
crowd of congresslnts this afternoon. The
demonstrator explained in simple language
that milk Is a food and not a
medicine and that children should have
the best of it.
The Straus directions for feeding milk
to children are:
"Keep the bottles of milk in a cool

lug and feed the child regularly and not
whenever it cries. Leave the bottle of
milk in a pall of hot water for ten minutes
before feeding, but do not boll the
milk. Do not add anything to the milk.
Throw away the milk which is left In the
bottle after feeding, then rinse the bottle
with clean water. Do not remove the
stopper from the bottle until ready for
use. Use a clean nipple for every feed->
ing."
Mr. Straus has just completed his six- 1
tepnth year in his fight against tuberculosis
in infants by pasteurising milk. His
stations sell pasteurized milk In the tenement
districts of New York at less than
cost?namely, at 5 cents a quart. Figures
are dry and the congress is so full of
them that brains reel end grow faint
when one tries to grasp all of them, but
Mr. Straus' great figures show that in
one >ear his stations put out 4.167,675 hot.
ties of milk to the poor of New York.
The system protects -.500 babies a year
from tuberculosis.
What President Did.
Washingtonians may remember the visit j
of the President and Mrs. Roosevelt to
Coney Island only two or three years
ago, and the whirlwind raising of money
to establish Sea Breeze Home, the sanatorium
for children afflicted with bone
diseases. The results of the President's
indorsement of the plan and the good
work that has gone on ever since at Sea
Breeze may be seen in the exhibit near
the Straus exhibit. "Smiling Joe," that
little fellow whose picture as he iay
strapped to a board in an effort to
fiirniorhton nut a ornnkfd ?Din6. h&S b66Il
used by Sea Breeze as an advertisement
to secure money. Is in evidence In the
museum, by photograph only.
The Smithsonian Institution and the Interior
Department, through the bureau
of Indian affairs, have combined in a
very interesting exhibit showing a novel
phase of consumption. The object is to
demonstrate that the American Indians
in their wild and primitive state did not
suffer from consumption as far as is
known, but that the advance of civilisation
has brought with it just enough
knowledge of the white man's methods
of living to break down the previous high
standard.
Dr. Hrdlicka (pronounced something
like "Erllsher") of the Smithsonian
brought ha<k east with him. after a two
months' stay in the west., many photographs
showing that Indians are prone
to build themselves houses without the
slightest evidence of ventilation, and eon
sefnion,jly tlie tuberculosis percentage is
| high. Two large life-size groups taken

from the exhibit in the National Museum
show what splendid physical specimens
the Indians were in their natural state
i iniriy years ago.
Schools for Indians.
The Interior Department exhibit shows
the kind of schools that will be built in
many places for Indian children. The
buildings are made of lattice work as
far as possible, allowing a splendid circulation
of air, as it has been shown
that the little red men and women are
quite apt to become consumptive In an
ordinary closed building.
Another federal exhibit is from the census
office. There are many maps and
charts and dry-looking tables of statistics,
but the lively part of the whole
thing is a tabulating machine which adds
up the death rate by months and years
in a jiffy. A young woman operates it,
and it has a crowd around it most of the
time.
An exhibit which will appeal to the
children is the Playground Association's
little show. . A model playground, with
dolls dressed In sweaters and swarming
over a base ball field, with all kinds of
athletics going on at the same time on the
side, is characterized by nearly every
woman who sees it as "jtist too dear for
any words." The exhibit Is near the
main entrance, in the same space as the
Straus milk exhibit, and a large placard
on the wall beara the names of Commissioner
Macfarland and Dr. Curtis of this
city as officers of the association.
