s \ paradoxs yet nothing is

fhat every year in our land, corpses
murder more people than assassins do.
Not only have intramural interments
poisoned whole blocks and quarters,
not only drinking water, contaminat-
ed by gravsyards, yearly spreads d.
sease and death through the country
hamlets, but, before the process Of de-
composition coromences, there is often
great and pressing danger from in
fictitious disease. We quote recent
instance:
"Dr. Goldie, the Medical Officer of
Health for Leeds, England, in his re.
port to the local authority, says that

od the wake of an Irish girl, who re-
Gently died in that town from typhus
fever, were attacked with the same
disease, and no fewer than nine of the
cases ended fatally" E.
So strongly have the needless dan.
gers of exposure at funerals impressed
the medical mind, that the Health
Board of New York have now issued
a circular recommending that no pub.
lie or church funerals should be given
to persons dying of diphtheria, scarlet
fever, measles, or whooping cough.
In Chicago, also, where scarlet few
er and diphtheria have been severe
this winter, the recommendation of one
hundred men in council was in these
words
"There should be no public funerals
Of any patients who have died of any
infectious or contagious disease. Re.
member that the separation of the
Bick person from the we'll is the most
certain means Of preventing the spread |
of the disease"
A writer in the Baltimore Phvsicia1,
and Surgeon, last December, went so
far as to advocate the passage of a law
on the subject (the average American
man looking upon claw" as the cure
all on every ocoasion). He thought it |
should embOdy the following provis-
ions:
l. When any one dies Of contagious
disease, the publication announcing
the death should state the cause Of
death.
2, No person except the immediate
family should be permitted TO attend |
tho funeral, and the handling and
burying the body should be intrusted
80 persons who devote themselves to
that business.
3. A sufficient nnmher of carr;aoao
should be kept forithe special purpose

hiring them for other purposes should
be prohibited, under the severest pen.

people should learn and obey them
out Of natural sense of sanitary pro.
priety, not out of obligation to a sta
