TAcrs arorr rrPuorp FEVER.

| Tic frightful ciortality at Plymouth,
Pa, il consequence Of tho prevalence Of
typhoid fever, impels us to publish the
accompanying illustrations of the effects
of the disease upon the human system,
which cennot fail to boirtercstipg at this
time. Typiicid fever is prc.eminently a
It'll disease, and to the disgrace Of mod
ern civilization prevails all over Europe
and the United States. 1t is generated
in and its germs thrive in human filth.
Horrible as the idea is, in order to con-
tract the disease some Of these foul germs
must be swallowed in contaminated wa.
ter OF milk with food. fruit or vegetables
on which they have lodged. The germs
are generated more particularly in dark
ness, in DISTRACTED underground drains
and cesspoois. The principal symptom
of the disease Is peculiar diarrhea
which carries with it some Of the germs.
If these are thrown into outdoor priviss
the whole mass becomes affected, and If
there is leakage from them there is apt
to be soakagc into neighboring wells. the
water Of which reproduces the disease
extensively. Allwho drink Of this water
are apt to contract the fever. Milk d.
luted with this poisonous water, and
even milk cans Washed in it, win convey
the disease. If soakage takes place into
cellars, all the fruits and vegetables
stored there will become contaminated.
Fortunately, If this foul water or milk be
boiled the germs viii be killed. and al.
though nasty, will not convey the dis.
ease. Potatoes, cabbages, beets. carrots,
ETC., are generally cooked before eaten
and are not very dangerous. The fruits
coming from foul cellars must be washed
in pure water, Sls aA0# Hfss3S
Tho disease is necessarily most common
in country houses and hotels, and in
small towns and villages without sewers
and . large general water supply. The
dirty cellars, obstructed drains, foul out
houses and vaults, and the unprotected
wells are tho breeding places Of the germs.
1t is all-important that wells should be
placed far distant from cow.yards stables,
pig-stys, and upon higher level. SO that
no fogl soakace car, get into them. In
