1t appears that in the matter Of
spreading typhoid, the oyster has been
~unjustly maligned. Some experiments
carried out under the direction of the
British Royal society show that sea
water is inimical to the growth of the
typhoid bacilli. Bacilli were placed in
oysters, and, although their presence
was demonstrated in one case on the
twenty-frst day following, there still
appeared to be no initial or subsequent
multiplication of the germs. AS to
green oysters, the investigators say
that some are wholesome and some are
not. The greenpess in the former case
is due to the presence Of a harmless
vegetable pigment, with which, also.
there may be associated a small guam
tity of an iron salt, but this has no
connection with the coloring matter.
In the other kind Of green oysters the
color is due to q deleterious salt Of
copper. The epicure is therefore rec
commended not to eat green oysters un-
less he knows where they came from.
