Prof. Hartshorne remarks on this point, that the influence of impure air in promoting consumption has probably heretofore been underrated. Dr. Mapother, supported by Dr. McCormac, Dr. Aitken, and other Bristol authorities, regards impure air as one of the chief modes of morbid causation over which sanitary regulations should exert control. The vitiated air of the European barrack system for soldiers, says Prof. Parkes, is the only way in which the great prevalence of consumption in European armies can be accounted for. This is the conclusion to which the Sanitary Commissioners for the army came in their celebrated report: A great amount of phthisis (consumption) has prevailed in the most varied stations of the army and in the most beautiful climates, ?in Gibraltar, Malta, Ionia, Jamaica, Trinidad, Bermuda, etc., ? in all which places the only common condition was the vitiated atmosphere which our barrack system everywhere produced. And, as if to clinch the argument, there has been of late years a most decided decline in phthisis in these stations, while the only circumstance which has notably changed in the time has been the condition of the air. A very eminent authority, the late Dr. Marshall Hall, of England, said, in reference to pure air in the treatment of consumption, If I were seriously ill of consumption, I would live out-doors day and night, except in rainy weather or midwinter; then I would sleep in an unplastered log Practical Hygiene, page 97. CAUSE OF CONSUMPTION. house. Physic has no nutriment, gaspings for air cannot cure you, monkey capers in a gymnasium cannot cure you, and stimulants cannot cure you. What consumptives want is pure air, not physic, ? pure air, not medicated air, ?plenty of meat and bread. Let it be remembered, in t...

Book Description
Excerpt from The Ten Laws of Health To prevent disease, the first necessity is to know what produces it. It is the business of the physician to understand what are the causes of disease, and he ought, therefore, to be the most capable of directing how they can be avoided. Very many persons, evidently impressed with this view, are in the habit of complaining that physicians do not endeavor to instruct their fellow-beings as they ought, in reference to the preservation of health. While it is true that nearly all the popular books on the subject of health have been written by those whose knowledge of disease is mainly theoretical, yet in the accumulation of sanitary knowledge physicians have been the only contributors. Especially in recent times and in every part of the world have they been investigating, with great care, the causes which produce disease, and the conditions which prevent it. On these topics, their literature contains an immense accumulation of facts, and of a value to humanity almost immeasurable. By the light of these collected facts, and the conclusions they are capable of establishing, all uncertainty in reference to the preventability of nearly every form of disease must disappear, and the laws pertaining to health be capable of definite settlement; so that men and women, by living accordantly with them, may live as they ought to live, free from disease, and die as they ought to die, from old age, and not by the violent and unnatural process of disease.
