After a room baa been used bf a person alok with any contagious diaeaae, It beocmea neoe1saxy to disinfect lt befere lt Is used again. Thia Is done by removing and burning tho paper on the wall, rea ovlng the bed-stead and ether furniture, and exposing them ta air and wind, and giving them a fresh coat of varnish ; by having the mattrass made over new and the hair boiled ; by burning in the room three pennds of nlphur, and by whltewaahlng, painting aud pa.paring tho room anew.

But there la one method whioh cannot fall to prove beneficial, and that is the inhale.tion of large quantities of frOBh p11re air.
