With them the disease is apt to be quick and fatal. | X-ray photographs have shown, | Dr. Opie has demonstrated, that 9% percent of the white adults who, die from diseases other than tuber- culosis, have in their lungs small, | hard spots through which the X-rays | do not easily penetrate. These have been shown to he deposits built up by the body around points of tuber- cular infection. The type of infec- tion occurs chiefly in children, but the hard nodules continue in the | lungs through life. Works Its Own Cure Apparently this type of childhood | infection, Dr. Opie explained. causes | the body to develop resistent fluids which attack fresh infections of tuberculosis, and for the most part destroy them. How this resistance is sometimes overcome by the dis- {ease in adults is now the object of research Dr. Opie is directing. In aduits the disease takes a dif- ferent form, as a rule, usually ap- pearing as a more diffused infection of the top portion of the lung. La- teat infections of this type have been found by Dr. Opie in the lungs of one of every five white adults ex- amined. In every case latent jn- fections of this type are accompam- . a W. C.

Dr. Opie says. but evidence of the early infection of those who die of tuberculosis is almost always less extensive in those who die of the disease than in those who do hot develop active | cases, In some instances, where infection occurs in adults similar to the child- hood type, general dissemination of the disease throughout the body oe- curs because the adult has not been made resistent by infection acquired during childhood, Dr. Opie claims. ------------------ "|open a Paris "beauty parlor."
