DON'T DRINK IT.

Cistern Water the Cause of Typhoid
Fever Even When Filtered.
DR.. L NJ. Powell cites u family of four
persons who have the typhoid fever.
They are under the doctors charge who
said to a JOURNAL reporter:
'Their sickness is wholly caused by
drinking summer cistern water.
II wish you would warn people not to
drink cistern water that has collected
during the summer showers. 1t is most
unhealthy. 1t matters not that the cis-
tern may be properly filtered. This
does not remove the poisonous particles.
Many poisons are soluble and pass
through the filtering.
ut is a mistake about cistern water
being the most pure drinking water
coming as it does from the roofs in the
hot dusty season when SO many impuri-
ties are in the air.
II anticipate more sickness this fall
from typhoid fever than any other cause,
and this solely where people have been
drinking cistern water.
