SMALLPOX In Wall Paper.

Many years ago n person was sick OF
smallpox in farm house in the coun-
try town of Groton, and after the pa
tent recovered the dwelling was fumi-
gated and repapered. Ira Chester and
family now dwell in the house. The
paper was removed a week or so ago,
and presently Mr.. Chester's daughter
was stricken with smallpox. In the
opinion of the physician the germs OF
the disease were dormant in the walls
of the room. In no other way is the
child's sickness to be accounted for,
since she had not been otherwise ex-
posed to the malady.-Cincinnati En-
quirer.
We are forcibly reminded by the
above clipping from the Cincinnati
Enquirer of the claims made by the
sanitarians, which are, no doubt, true
to a certain extent, that all disease
germs find hiding place and culture
ground best adapted TO their nature,
and to help them along in their mission
in life, in wall paper, with its vege-
table paste to hold it on the wall, and
it's animal glue to hold its colors; that
these, to say the least, are not the best
materials with which to cover so much
space around us as the walls in
which we live and sleep, and that
paper and glue are great absorbents OF
moisture, of which every person throws
off certain number of ounces
in exhalations every day, and
that such decaying material as
glue and paste gives off deleterious
gases in such small quantities that we
do not discover them, though those who
study it can smell it in most rooms
papered, and especially where mum
Der of layers of paper have been pasted
upon each other, a common nasty
practice"
They claim that these conditions
have more to do with our ill-health
than we are aware of; that such a state
of things in the room in which we live
affects us more than does change OF
climate, which so many seek when
they find themselves failing in health;
that 1t would be cheaper, at least, To
try a change OF room or one coated
with some non-decaying material, be
fore going TO the expense and trouble
of a change of climate. Those who
live In such rooms are not usually made
sick unto death, but IL is claimed that
they do not enjoy as good health az
they otherwise might.
