Origin OF Typhoid Fever.

A controversy as to the origin of
typhoid fever is held by various men of
science in the columns of the London
Times. DR.. Lionel Beale takes the
position that fever germs will not be
developed from filth. The influence of
bad air arising from defective sewerage,
the vicinity of foul matters, ETC., etc,
is to prepare the human system for the
invasion of fever-germs when imported,
and to render it favorable to their
growth and multiplication. When the
body is perfectly healthy and strong, it
is able to resist successfully the action
of fever-germs but, when it is dis
ordered and weakened through con-
tinued living in disregard of sanitary
laws, it is ready to fall victim to dis
ease and the generation of fever poison.
The deduction is perfectly clear keep
the air and water pure as a fundamental
precaution against all diseases,

Low Freight Rates,

The following exhibit, showing the
average freight rates on wheat from
Chicago to Buffalo by lake, and from
Buffalo to New York by canal, and the
average from Chicago to New York, for
the last fourteen seasons, proves that
freight charges have ruled lower in 1874
than ever before
The true northerner. [volume] (Paw Paw, Mich.) 1855-1920, 1875-01-01

The average rate from Chicago to
New York by water this year is 5.3
cents lower than that of last year, and
3.5 cents under the lowest previous
average. IL is safe TO say that carriers
have received less for moving forward
the cereal crop this season than 1t has
cost them TO do the work.

1t is complained that the greatest men
