Today, in most eases, it is used l;y drivers in lieu of brakes and thus it is not only annoying b(H extremely dangerous. 'Jinny driven today dash through a populated -district without abating their speed one bit, sounding their hori.fi almost continuously so that tbey,miiy take the right .of way by reason of their insistence and their recklessness. . The difficulty is that many .drivers think that the" sounding of a horn is the mark of a veiiyoareful driver and is to le com mended rather 'than condemned.. Such, however, is not the cases for the good driver js so eareful.himseUand has his ear so con-Ktaiitly-mider eontrdl, that he has absolutely no -need -of a M'arn- ing signal.

A correHpondent who liua tuber culoid putu some queutiunH that I Hhall try to answer truthfully, for the benefit ot others In similar clrcumstanccH. "I woik around home every day, "My worry is the fear of .spreading infection thru the Hputum. Ordinarily I use Htnatl pleceH of cloth which I wrap in waxed paper and place, in an envelope, for burning. .1 worry over the thought , that this sputum contaminates my lips, bnd then In wiping the lips with cloth -or oft paper Is -there - danger of Bpreadlng fn feet ion about the mouth, ho that when onewashea the face the germs could be spread everywhere, onto towels, dishes, etc.? In the past I have sometimes hurled sputum contaminated things deeply In- the ground; -Could' the germs live there and drain into the gai-flen and so contam inate vegetables growing In the garden? Could tubercle bacilli livo very long in a bottle of : water, oil, etc., if they got there from one's lips? If a bit of sputum got on one's hand nnd was washed off at once with soap nnd water could any of the germs lodge in or on a ring and remain there in tiny crevices?" The method of disposal of the sputum described by the corre spondent is excellent, and mign well be followed in any case of crl any common respiratory, in- fectlon or acute illness whloh rrriiy bn l'nmminiirnliln thrniiirh ihn n nan ! be communicable through tho noao or throat discharges. Even If the Hih be contaminat ed, und diseaHe gcrma be carried from tho lliti to tho face or other skin surfaces near the mouth, .or to tho hands, nil this is readily removed by simple soap and wuter washing of face and hiinds. Not only the patient ill of a.Kbs lill'tltoiy infection and those caring for or in close contact with 'ilhe patient, but indeed everybody, ought to strive to live aHcoptlcally,' th.-it. is, to cultivate hahlts of sanitaVy cleunllness. For example, the rite of washing face und hands Just be foro taking food; tills Is too corn monly neglected,), either because the plaeo of cnting has no, propor facilities for 'Cleanliness u scan dal to our American snnltary Con-st-lonce or else because the handn do not look very dirty and the owner Imagines visible dirt is tho only objectionable kind. Then, loo, everyone should practice' to avoid bringing finger to lip or ton gue except when this may be ac tually necessary. At the same time it should bo clearly understood that tho fieciuent use of soup and wator for hand and face -washing is a de pendable protection ngalnst this risk in all ordinary .circumstance?. Thoro is no scientific or empir ical reason to lmaglno that dlsea'io germs -burled -under ground ever again menace human life or health. Kormerly we assumed outbreaks of waler borne typhoid fever were sometimes so caused: but we know now that most epidemics are from direct p'lllution of food. . It is ilirflcult to estimate how long any disease germs would livo If they accidentally got Into a bot tle of waler, oil or food. 'but there should be no occasion to worry about that If reasonable care Is taken to keep Ihe Invalid's uten sils separate, or at least to use no common feeding utensils. Hoap and waler washing of dishes adequate ly disinfects them. Jt Is conceivable that some ills- ense germs might 'remain In the crevices of a ring after a hurried soap and water hand washing.

Uut .even ho, it Is doubtful whether the germs would retain their power to produce dU cumo In tho second person. Again wo haven't the slightest scientific evidence to warrant ihv, inference that infection ever. happens In that way. Ho why worry about aueh i remote and improbable accident': .1 most Vartiestly assure this cor respondent anJ all readers who may have tuberculosis themselves or some one 111 of the disease in the home, that a fuir degree of Intelligence and -a conscientious obedience -of the simple rules nny doctor or Hospital trained nurse can teach, will surely prevent th spread of the disease. , QUESTION'S AM) ANSWKHS Tilght on Jjlglit. Please explain the difference be tween sunlight and ultraviolet ray. Is It true that ultraviolet light will cause cancer? I heard this dis cussed the other night by a group of people, each having a different opinion, but In my 'opinion none of them knows anything about it. I understand there are over 6,000 quartz lamps in use In our city, A few words from you might be of wide interest. L. O. P. Answer. fiunllght contains a greater quantity of ultarvlolet rays than one pets 'from any lamp..- -I do not' believe ultarvlolet light from any source causes cancer." ' In my 'opinion,, n quartzlamp orother artificial- so u r e e of . ultraviolet should be used, only by advice of and under the 'direction of one's physician.
