Cause o
---By WoodHutchinson, M. 1)., in
Saturday Evening Post.
' Nowhere can the natural history, of
dies -see he more clearly seen Or More
advantageotisly studied than in the
case of typhoid fever.
The cause et typhoid is simplicity
itself, merely drinIsing the excreta of
some one else-"cating dirt," in the
popular I:bean-simple but of a dead-
ly effectiveness, and disgracefully com-
mon. The demon may be exercised by
an inbantation of one sentence :"Iecep
human execreta out of the drinking
water." This sounds simple, but it
isn't. Eternal vigilance is the price
of health, as. well as liberty.
We can however, make our pedigree
ef typhoid a little more precise. It
Is not merely_ diet of human origin
which is injurious, blit dirt of a par-
ticular type -namely, discharges from
a previous ease of the disease. Just
as in the fight against malaria, we
have not tbe enormous problem of the
extermination of all and 'every var-
iety of mosquito, but only one par-
ticular genus, and wily the infected
Specimens of,that, so in typhoid, the
contamination of water or food which
we hee,:e to guardagainst is that from
previous oases., From one eoint pf
view, this leaves the problemas wide
as ever, for, obviously, the only. Way
to insure against poisoning of water
by typhoid discharges is to shut Out
absolutely all sewer contamination.
On the other hand, it is ..of immense
advantage in this regard -it enables
us to fight the enemy at both end S of
the line -to turn his. flank as well as
crush his center. •

014 Fever
and HOW.. it Is Spread
The moral is obvioes. Great eitieS
are developing a Sanitary conscience..
Bad as our city Water often Is, and
defective as our systems of sewage,
they cannot for a moment cornpare
in deadliness with that most uplift*,
enly pair of twihs, the shallow wedl
rand the vault elvy. A more Woe
ious eonthination for the dissemina.
tion of typhoid than this precious
couple could hardly have been devised.
The innocent householder sallies forth
and, at an ciPeropriate distance from
his hothe, he digs two holes, one
aboet thirty feet deep, and the other
about four. Into the shallow one he
throws his excreta, while upon the
surface of the ground he flings abroad
household waste from the back stoop.
'The gentle rain froin heaven, washes
thessvarious products down into the
soil and percolates gradually into the
deeper hole. When the; interesting see,
ution has accumulated to a sufficient
depth it is drawn up by the old oaken
bucket or modern pump and. drunk, Is
it any wonder that in BM • 'United
States three hundred and fifty thous
end cases of typboici occur every year,
with a death penalty of ten per cent.
Counting half of these as workers,
and the period, of Meese as. two
months, wilieh Would he very. Moder-
ate estimates, gives a loss of produce
:tive working time equivalent to thirty
thousand years, Talk of "cheap as
dire !" It is the most expensive thing
there is.

ed in waiting on members of the
faniily who are ill of" the disease, or
the dilution ef milk with infected Wat-
er, or even, almost incredible as it
may seem, to such slight contamince
This was enough to contaminate the
water. ,
The Fly That Never Wipes Its Feet.
Health, officers now watch likc
hawks for the 'appearance of any case
of typhoid among or in the familiesof
dairymen. The New York City BOW
of Health, ter instance, requires the
weekly Ming of a eertieca,te from the
family ,phyeivian of all dairymen that
no such eases exist, And the morein-
telligent dairymen keep a vigilant eye
upon any appearance of illnesesaccom-
Panted by fever among. their employes,
rome that I have known even keeping
a revel: thermometer in the barn for
the purpose of testing every suspi-
cious case. How effective stet pee -
cautions can be made May be illus-
trate(' by the fact that in the past
five years, there has not been a single
epidemic of typhoid teacea.ble to millt
in Greater New York, even with . its
inadequate corps of ten inspectors, and
the six states they ,have to cover.
The moment a single ease of typhoid
appears, the dairy or daieymen supp-
lying that customer isgiven a most
rigid special inspection, and, if; any
ouncet of infection can be discovered,

of the disease. One of the singular
features of the disease is that, unlike
many other infeetionse we are en-
tirely unable to Say what conditlone
or influences seem iither to protect
agaiest it or to predispose toward it.
In the days when we believed it to be
ah exclusively intestinal disease it was
naterally supposed that chronic diges-
tive disturbance's, and especially ac-
ute attacks of bowel trouble or dysen-
would predispose to it, but this
has been entirely disproved. Soldiers
in barracks with chrome digeetive die-
turbances and Ma with dysentery,
have shown no higher percentage of
typhoid during an epidemic than eth-
ers. Nor does it seem raudh more lik-
ely to ocetir in those who are con-
stitutionally weak, or run down, ot
overworked, as some of the most
lent and unmanageable, cases mei::
