In illustration Of the disease- breeding
quality Of lead water It Is mentioned
that in 2 prison supplied with the sewer
tainted water of the river Thames cases
oftyphoid fever were frequent. Tho
sources of supply were. hanged. to spring
sources, and fever almost entirely disap-
peared, and there was marked advance
in the general health. In one prison
there was an outbreak of darrhrea, such
as prevailed regularly among the outside
population. Accidental contami nation
Of the water in the prison cistern with
sewage gas was detected. When this
was restored. In one prison cases Of
