STRANGE FACTS

It is stated that in India soap is re-
garded almost in the light of natural
curiosity, for it is rarely il ever TO be
obtained 'of d shopkeeper there. Oh
course, it is sold in the larger towns, but
the amount used by the natives must
be very small, seeing that tho total
consumption OF soap in India last year
was only 5000 tons. This means that
the amount used by each person for
the year was considerably less than one
ounce.
The supply OF human hair sent from
China to Europe amounted to eSQ,0OO
during 1890. II was exported from
Canton, and if Consul Alabaster may
be credited, most OF it came from the

PERSONS" The hair used in. London

duced by London hospitals.

Terrible Typhoid Mortality.

The Prolific Cause Of Local EpideSnies-
Terrible Typhoid Mortality.
Sanitary Bra.
So lnonotonously unpleasant is the
duty Of chrouicling local epidemics
from contaminated water, and SO hack
neyed and unimpresaiye they become
by continual repetition, to the reader,
that we have omitted hundreds of them
every year from mention. The gross
and constant typhoid mortality OF such
cities as Philadelphia, Cincinnati,
Wheeling, and Pittsburgh, has become
a uniyersdlTBore TO the whole country,
and the frivolous debates on proposals
and prices for filtration that torestall
every possibility of same result II any,
make up case from which the intelli-
gent observer turns away sick and dis
couraged, wishing to bear no more
about it. For IN easing Of conscience,
however, let US bear with a few more
items OF the same sort from recent ex-
changes.
The appalling return of 40s deaths
from typhoid fever in the month of May
places Chicago as far ahead OF other
cities in this respect as her proudest
citizen could wish to claim: q typhoid
rate OF 4s per thousand inhabitants !
double medium rate for all zymotic
diseases combined, and that double rate
again doubled by the companion pests
Of foul water. The cause Of this whole
sale mortality is clearly shown by sub
Joined extracts from Chicago papers,
together with the foolish efforts OF
others to cover up or belittle both the
cause and the effect. Not one in a hum
dred OF these deaths could have oc-
Cured, if Chicago had established a
genuine purifying plant for the whole
city water supply, as she could have
done years ago.
