Alarming Prevalence OF Pneu moni".
. II. l. .li.aan

3. Alarming Prevalence OF Pneu moni".
The number OF deaths from this disease
recently, and the greater number OF cases
under treatment is just now attracting at
tention. Postmaster General Howe died Of
pneumonia. So did the celebrated DR.:
George N. Beard, and at his burial Mrs.
Beard caught cold and followed her hus'
band in flew days. Ex-Governor Jewell
was carried otfby the same disease, and
Mrs. Jewell, like Mr.. Beard, caught cold
o. her husbands funeral, and died.
In some places the disease has amounted
almost to an epidemic, and the unusual
fatality has led the medical fraternity to
: discuss the causes, especially the strange
fatality Of surviving friends and relatives,
connected with attendance at the burial
services. An exchange commenting on
the subject states:
Several physicians are Of opinion that it
comes largely from the custom which re-
uuires men to stand beside grave with
barred, exposed heads. II will be remem.
bered It was at the burial oil Lengtellow
that Emerson took cold, and died from its
effects.
No matter how inclement the weather Is
pallbearers must stand outdoors with un.
covered heads. Numbers OF instances are
given wherein men have thus contracted
pneumonia. DR., Sayre, the well.known
New York physician, told a Herald reporter
that he had been in bed a month with
capillary bronchitis, caused from taking
of his hat while acting as pallbearer at a
friends funeral. Dr. Sayre says:
~ have lost such an opportunity OF do.
ing good that feel like kicking myself"
exclaimed DR.. Sayre in his vehement fash
ion. ~ wanted to have sent suggestion
10 those in charge OF Governor Morgan's
funeral that they should announce that out
OF respect to the dead the gentlemen pres
ent would please not remove their hats in
open air. But did not do it, am sorry
to say. / might have saved million OF
lives, and 1t Is not many doctors can do
that. Out Of respect to the dead, mind
yonf and such way Of putting 1t would
have offended no one and have carried the
point.
Certpinly it Is reasonable enough that
man should take proper precautions to
protect his health. Lifting the hat is only
form, to which custom only has attached
any significance. There are ether ways,
Just as sincere, Of showing respect for the
dead.
In regard to the increase Of pneumonia,
the journal quoted above, says:
Persons who nose into things have found
out that In New York City the population
has increased not quite so per cent. in
twenty years. Deaths from pneumonia
meanwhile have increased nearly 200 per
cent. The showing'is bad enough. The
greatest number Of deaths occur, Of course,
In cold weather. There are more OF them
in March than in any other month. The
disease seems to fly in the wind, somehow.
II Is most prevalent in the months and the
years when there have been the highest
winds.

How Watch Cases are Made.

1t is fact not generally known that the

tain more pure gold than many solid"
gold cases The demand for these watch
cases has led to the manufacture of very

low in quality, and deficient in quantity.
These cases are made from a to 10 karats,
and 5 or karat case is often sold for II
or Il karats. 1t is NOT economy to buy 3
