The disease usually attacks girls who, for trifling wages (‘2s per week) risk the loss of their health. The physicians have not hitherto been able to find any means of cure for this disease. When the jaw bone is once attacked, however slightly, the maladv is incurable, and the bone must be removed. In this last case, the girl had left the factory above six months, during which time she had been at service in another town, before the jaw showedsymptoms of disease. Government ought to take this subject into its earnest consideration.—Hamburgh paper.* - * ▼ n i 1 . i
