HEALTH: , All large cities have health ordinances
governing the proper instalations for
plumbing. From .this fact you can un
derstand that plumbing which is not
installed properly is a very great dan
ger to the health of a community. But
with all laws on this subject it is possi
ble to evade the spirit of the law by just
living up to the letter of it. A poorly
, made connection is an unseen foe which
may put a whole family in the hospital
, or even in the grave with typhus or
. some equally deadly disease. Poor
plumbing is the birth place of disease.
.,
You don't have to go to war to be
v " killed Disease killed more people dur-
; . ing the recent war than all the cannons,
bombs, bullets and warships. Fight
disease with good plumbing.
Be sure that your plumbing is not a
germ.
