Around the bodies of CONSUMPTION ¥ NOT HEREDITARY ENOR PABLO LOZANO Y PONCE DE LEON, director of the Society for the Protection of Chil- drer at Madrid, contends that tu- berculosis is not hereditary, and that the question in connection there- with which remains to be settled is sim- ply whether predisposition or immun- ity is hereditary. In an address de- livered before the Congress of Hygiene, recently held at Madrid, reported in La Escuela Moderna, he gave it as his opinion that the theory of heredity of this disease, admitted by all physi- cians from the commencement of med- icine up to the present time, must be considered the saddest of all medical dectrines, and that it is this which has made it so difficult to treat the opposite doctrine of contagion justly. “Multi- tudes of victims,” he says, “have been sacrificed on the altar of ignorance.” Continuing, he remarks: “That tuberculosis is produced by the Koch bacillus no one now denies: and it is also undeniable that the bacillus is found in every organic lesion ‘of this nature. j “It is also an evident fact-that the younger the being which is exposed to contact with the Koch bacillus, the more readily is it absorbed and'the more quickly it is developed, extending 1h a very short time to almost all the organs . . . . , being disseminated through the ganglions, bones, liver, spleen, lungs, etc., while in adults it is seldom found except in the lungs. Pas- teur . . . . also observed that the younger the animal when inoculated the more susceptible it is to the action of the bacillus. “Therefore a fact on which our atten- tion must be fixed is; that the younger the human organism the more easily i3 it invaded by the germs of tuberculosis and the more rapid and extensive are the ravages which this germ produces. “The experiments made on animals also substantiate this fact, according to the experiments of Bernheim, Straus, Sanchez, Toledo, Grancher, Nocard, Leyden, Max Wolff; ‘and even Baum- garten, the defender of the theory of heredity, who inoculated male, female and young rablits with the tuberculo- sis germ, reports that the female be- coming pregnant after being infected did not give birth to tuberculous young, and if the latter were separated from the sphere of contagion in which thelr progenitors lived," this disease was never known to be developed in either themselves oOr in any of thelr de- scendants.” ' In further proof of his theory Senor Ponce de Leon cites statistics from Schutzlein, physician of the hospital at Munich, who in treating 613 children, 43.59 per cent of whom had one con- sumptive parent and 6.86 per cent both parents copsumptive, had not noticed a single cdse of tuberculosis in the a consultation. The consultant thought there was no cause for anxiety, yet the child died within forty-eight hours. These and other cases described by medical men certainly give ground for the belief that in some cases at least, the approach of death is heralded by a strange odor, though it is difficult to understand exactly the causc Of its oc- currence. SMART SET DRINKS TEA Fashionable Gatherings Entertained ‘- by Mrs. George Pope.and Mrs. Tubbs. Soclety divided its time yesterday after- noon between the Pope and Tubbs teas; and many of the same fashionable set managed to lend their presence to both of the elegant entertainments. Several hundred guests paid their re- spects to Mrs. George A. Pope, at her acific-avenue residence, between the hours of 5 and 7. Much preparation was made for their reception and the home was aglow with American beauty roses and exquisite chrysanthemums.
