TYPHOID FEVER,
N THE FALL OF THE YEAR Typhoid Fever is more prevalent. There
are usually fewer eases of this disease within the area of well -kept.
cities than outside. The smaller towns and gauntry places furnish
the greater number of cases. The reason why well -kept cities
furnish less typhoid, than elsewhere is because they usually have safer water
supplies and Proper disposal of sewage. The smaller towns and the country
are dependent for their water supplies chiefly upon wells, and their sewage
is taken care of in privy pits to which flies have free areess. Flies during
late September and October, when it is warmer indoors than outdoors, Sock
from the privy pit to the comfortable kitchen with its abundant food sup-
plies. They .trequeutly carry typhoid germs to the food, thence to the
members of the household. Country wells are frequently unprotected.
They are shallow and placed too close to the privy pit, while the top and
sides are not protected against the entrance of filth. Excreta front a
typhoid. ease ;a ith.out being disinfected may be thrown in the privy pit or
on the surface of the ground, and drain to the well. 'what is more likely
than that the users of this contaminated water will come down with the
disease?
What are the means of protection?
Privies must be made secure against the entrance of files.
Doors and windows should be screened. The building must be
securely banker?. about so that the Ales cannot enter the pit from outside.
The seat lids n uat be made to close automatically, after use. This can be
effected by having a block of wood fastened to the well behind the opelf
lid and place: in such a position that the lid falls in place as the oceupant
leaves,
A box ger •fining equal parts of sand and salt should be kept in the
privy and the. tee Feta eovered after eagle using.
Wells sht•uld be placed at a safe distance from the privy pit and away.
from the natural drainage of the soil. The sides and top of the well must
be Tiede secure egainst the entrance of surface pollution.
If these simple measures were carefully carried out there would be
less typhoid is rural eotnmunities.
F'nal't Bf a ease of typhoid fever occurs in a household experience in
the use of tyeeole vaccine among our soldiers indicates that it is wisdom
to at ones iuotuta.^ all the other members of the family, The vaccine is
provided free of a s. by the Provincial Board at Health.
CY1NSIeell'TIO;i AND SPITTING BLOOD.
John rt'o • n lta 1 notle'd for some than that he was net up to the
mark. In the morning ho felt very well, but through the day he became
tired, sh one, cid a little feverish. He badhad a slight tickling cough for
a, month or tw , tut did not cough up anything. One afternoon he felt a
warmth behlue, his breastbone and at the same time he bad a salty taste in
his mouth. Following a tickling in bis threat he coughed and brotight up
a few teaspoonfuls of bright, red blood.
This alarmed his friends very Muth and he turned pale, hie hands were
cold and perspiration broke out on his forehead. His mother sent for the
doctor who examined his nose, throat, and chest and finally told him the
blood came from his 'chest.
He was placed in bed and told to keep quiet and that he need not have
any fear for the bleeding. The physieiau took a sample' of the material that
John coughed up and found, as he suspected, that he was suffering from
tuberculosis of the lungs. Consumption is the cause of spittiug of blood in
nine cases out of ten. Other causes are pneumonia, congestion, bronchitis,
heart disease, aneurism, menstrual trouble, and scurvy, One out of every
twenty -Ave cases of consumption starts with a slight hemorrbag-. In one
out of every six cases there Is no other symptom. In two oat of every
three cases ti ere is nothing to bring on hemorrhage. The patient when
quiet notices a salty taste, has a little tickling, coughs, and up conies the
blood.
These early hemorrhages are never fatal. But the appeareeco of blood
frightens most people, and perhaps it is a good thing to have the hemor-
rhage, because it is a reliable danger signal.
A case of this kind should be kept quiet in bed for a few days. He
usually needs no medicine, except in cases where he is very much frightened
or shocked, when the doctor may give him some sedative. He must not get
stimulants such as whiskey, aromatic spirits of ammonia, etc. it the side
from which he is bleeding can be distinguished he should lie on that side.
et there le no return of hemorrhage after a few days he may get out
in the open air, Horseback riding win be good exercise for him, and he
MAY do a little outdoor work. Outdoor air and good food are the requisites
ter cure;_...
