Death Defeated.

The probabilities of life have largely

twenty years, And this is so because
science has advanced sanitation and
sanitation has defeated death. of
course, all must die, but none need do

ten laws. Cholera and cleanliness are
deadly foes; and, in fact, the latter
habit sternly opposes every contagious
disease. The unfortunate Muscovites
who have made the p ague-spot of ISgs
are the victims of habits of filthiness.
which have brought upon guilty and
innocent alike sad Nemesis.
Turn TO she west for the brighter
side of the picture. The number of
deaths from cholera in New York city
FOR ls49 was d, 1911; for 1855, $500: for
1886, 1870 for 1891. a few isolated
cases otcounting dozen. The death
rate OF our country is being surely
lowered every year, but much remains
to be done. Both here and in England
there are 100000 preventabie deaths
every year, and 1000 600 of needless
illnesses which an elementary lnowl-
edge of hygienic laws might have
averted.
