MICKOBE OF SYPHILISTIO PLAGUE 205 



the muscles, soft sore follows; to the lungs, 

 they are broken down; to the heart, it forgets 

 to beat; to the brain, mentality is destroyed. 



Thus, always beginning at the physical source of 

 life, the disease ends in a physical wreck. Noble 

 manhood, beautiful womanhood are no more. 



This plague is contagious, and contagious only. 

 From person to person it is communicated only by 

 contact. Its hot-bed is the " fancy house." The 

 door to this den is the avenue to hell. Enter not !
