The Apothecary now at Tan Tok Seng's Hospital will inform you that when the lepers were treated thore, a Chinesa attendant on them beame bimsalf a leper in the course of some! yers, while employed. In his duties, thangh it was not in his family history.
It is well known that leprosy is very commou amongst the Chinoaɔ baba elags, but the vicin are kept in dones, ali thoir lives, from the draad- *that their enlatives would be stigmatined if those akalotous of tho family onpboard wera anos dia- covered. And it is not in every oase that here- dity can be traced, though this is often the case. I food sure that if enquiry wore made of proxy practitioner in loprous countries, the majority of medical men would give evidönce to justify more thna a suspicion of Ita, contagioumABI, Such a systematic enquiry carried ou iu Buvapa can carry na conviction, as you may judge for
Roberts yourself when I tell you that in
Theary and Penotion of Medicins" and is Eriobson's. Surgery," two text books put into the tunds of Mulol Students se Standard Manuāli no meation is made of leprosy.
The establishment of its contagiousness would | bie imediately followed by an unpopular legislative nueronožmment upon individual liberty in compalaczy asgregration at State expense. But segregation need not be complets and Choic recognition of the danger 'would urge the vola- tires of a leper to get rid of him. The closest ties of family affection must, however, be made toʻyla'd to the divtutes of peor human sym. pathies.
Whão ou this subjoot, allow us to suggest that, on the principle of "set a thief to catel a thief," it would the surest way to get at a onre: for leprosy, to educate roang lepers for doctors. Leprosy often appears between the ages of sever aud ten years, and no botter objects in life could bo found for these pitifel entousts than the study of all that is known with regard to their disease. We may be sure that seal for investigation would not be wanting if some of them were let up to sach a standard of sŭnestion na wauli ouable them to go ga of their own accord.
