An attempt is made to show the physical benefits that may be derived under the proper regime of regulated life, and the mental stimulus and fresh outlook on life that come with the increase of bodily vigor, and with the freedom from physical and mental overwork. The story is principally in the form of letters written by a girl to her fiance after she has been found to be tuberculous, and cover a period of one year.

MacDougall King, M.B, RUPERT BLUE, Surgeon General of the U. S. Public Health Service, wrote of this splendid volume: "It is deserving of wide circulation." Dr. EDWARD O. OTIS, of Boston, Mass., writes: "I have nothing but praise for it. All the statements are medically correct. The physician himself can learn much from it. A book of inspiration for the tuberculous patient. Will help and encourage many a poor consumptive." THERE ARE 258 PAGES OF PRACTICAL ADVICE, written by a doctor who knows both the patient's and the doctor's viewpoint. It would seem, says the author, that when 84 per cent. of people infected with tuberculosis make a successful recovery, that it is not such an incurable disease as is supposed. On this sound basis Dr. King proceeds step by step through the whole plan of a successful campaign. He shows what the chances to recovery are and how to take advantage of them. No point is overlooked and everything is so clearly explained in such simple lucid language and so interesting withal that the most discouraged tuberculous patient will be charmed and encouraged into making immediate and successful efforts toward recovery.
