An (educational) account in which he tells the story of what 'one of you, I mean a reader of the Petit Journal' did. It's about a man suffering from tuberculosis who managed to cure himself and, once cured, returned to his village in Brittany and became an apostle of the hygiene needed to eradicate this scourge. 'In this region of Brittany, where alcoholism and poverty are the main causes, tuberculosis claims many victims'. Our man recounts his recovery, testifies, and suggests solutions such as opening windows that are 'unfortunately too small', putting an end to closed beds, 'how do you breathe in there'. He hands out brochures, talks about Koch's bacillus... - He hopes that his example will be emulated...
