We give extracts: AU‘typhoid is traceable to polluted water. If for a year the world were to stop drinking dilute sewage, ty phoid fever would vanish from our vital statistics. Niue tenths of all in fection comes direct from bad water. Infected cities get the disease in one uf two ways. They drink water pol luted by themselves or by others. Lake communities drink their own •ffscourings. Residents of river mu nicipalities welcome to their warm »nd bopsitable interiors the germs which come down the stream to them from diseased cities or rural districts directly infected above. There is a pleasant theory widely and warmly e>> ed by various boards of health ’ > mining water purities itself iu »■ n or eight miles. This is shown idlacious.

Then it woke set about building a large til- piaui. Out of the first twenty- v ’eks of its service there were weeks in which not a single -ji.uu.d was reported from the >u aiea. Id Typhoid fever differs from most other diseases in that its trail leads from the country to the town. Each hainlet, village and even farmhouse thta drains to a water shed is a peril to every city w hich draws its drink ing supply from that watershed. see to it that all sick room waste was destroyed or disinfected, we would have fewer fever tragedies Profes sional lawlessness, official inefficien cy—these are the nurturers of the ba cillus. Every man is concerned, immediate ly or prospectively, in typhoid fever, if not through himself then through his family, his friends, his business interests, or the taxes he pays. You pay taxes to get good water aud to have the laws enforced. One of the best preventative» against typhoid is the “pernicious municipal activity,” which sees that it gets what it pays for.
