THE DEADLY GERM.
A Warning’.
AGAINST THE “CONFIDENTIAL” TALKER. By Cable—-Press Association —Copyright* Australian and N.Z. Cable Association, (Received March 28, 5.5 p.m.) LONDON, March 20. A warning against the man who “talks confidentially right into your face, in a manner with which wo are all familiar,” has been issued by Sir Kenneth Coadlcy (bacteriologist). “I know it looks impolite to sheer back and hold the hand away, but this must not influence the listener,” he says. “Tlic.se people are very dangerous, because they may be suffering from disease, not necessarily active. “It is not generally realised that a germ may be carried in the mouth or throat without the conveyers suffering from disease. “Nurses working in consumption hospitals may have the consumption microbe in their mouths, though not suffering from it.”
