This is given as accounting for the fact that diph­ theria gene rally begin* to spread with the advent of the short days and long nights. Children dislike te go to bed hi the dark, and tbe kind mother leta the kind mother lets the lamp remain in the bedroom, usually turning down the flame so that the light shall not keep the child awake.
