PREVENTION OF TYPHOID FEVER.
Typhoid fever being disease that
always requires the personal attend
ance OF a physician, may be properly
referred to from the point of view of
| prevention.
IL Is well known that typhoid fever
/ is water-bone disease. and is COM
monty taken into the system in drink
ing water which has become contami-
nlted from the excreta of persons suf-
tering from the disease. Freezing does
not In any way impair the vitality OF
the bacillus of typhoid so that ice
from river or pond may convey the
disease to consumers hundreds OF
miles. perhaps, from the source of in
fection
Carried la Milk.
Milk has more than once been the
means Of conveying the disease. For
tunately most milk dealers are aware
OF the necessity OF cleanliness in the
preparation of milk for shipment. In
most modern dairies the bottles. be-
fore being filled, are subjected to the
sterilizing effects of steam. Epid9.1ics
OF typhoid fever traced to dairies have
IN most cases been due to the bottles
having been washed with water from
an infected well or pond.
Oysters that have been beddesi in
bodies of water which receive the con-
tents of sewerage pipes have likewise
been the means of conveying typhoid
fever. Only oysters eacen raw or on
the half-shell can carry infection to the
consumer, since cooking destroys the
bacillus.
A pure water supply is rightly
looked upon as one OF the greatest es-
sentials to the healthfulness of a COM
munity. Many foods-salads. for ex-
ample-cannot be cooked or subjected
to the effects of a high temperature;
while, on the other hand, washing
them in infected water may render
them the means of conveying disease
Care of the Stomach.
Among the chief ways of preventing
typhoid fever must be mentioned the
care OF the stomach itself. 1t seems
highly probable that the natural
juices of the healthy stomach are able
to destroy many germs of disease: but |
the number which any stomach may
be able to digest, and thus render its
owner safe from attack, must always |
De uncertain, and it is not desirable |
TO test its capacity in this direction.
The fact that only certain persons |
out of number who have partaken |
OF food or drink infected with disease
germs may suffer is explainable on
the ground of their different general
physical condition, or of the varying
states of their digestive organs.

THE ANCIENT ALPHABET.

Prof Flinders Petrie has recently
announced new revelation from his
latest Egyptian excavations. This
time he has thrown new light upon
the alphabet, and makes the announce
ment that he has set back the earliest
use o. letters by nearly 1000 years.
The discovery is of far-reaching i'm
portance to the literary world, adding
at it does nearly twenty centuries
more Of culture to the ancient peoples
than hitherto dreamed of. He arrives
at this conclusion as follows AS early
as 5000 3. C.. some trade existed
around the Mediterranean, as proved
by the imports into Egypt. At that
time the signary, or signs of the alpha
bet, was probably in the dim and un-
certain beginning of its course. Some
few signs have already been found at
that age, and these are likely to have

Disease Germs in Mnnnx.

According to American medicine,
the disinfection of paper money
should attract the attention of hygien-
lists. When patients with smallpox or
other contagious diseases are quaran
tined, they must purchase and pay for
food, etc, and it is certain that bills
sent by them may be carriers of con-
tagion.
It is almost impossible for the
larger banks to carry out thorough
disinfection on money with the pres
ent devices, and for the small stores
and working men it is more difficult.
A simple. cheap and effective disinfec-
ton device is highly desirable. Banks
may lessen the danger by returning to
Washington for redemption notes that
are not only badly soiled and dam
aged, but that are slightly so. 1t
would be well if the English system of
redemption were also in use in our
country. Our government should be
more liberal to banks in this respect.

ERE ILL RIGHT

The action Of the Secretary OF the
Treasury Shaw IN revising or annulling
his order OF October LIST for the relief OF
the money market by permitting the ac-
ceptance of State and municipal bonds
as security for Government deposits Is
very unfavorably commented upon by
.the man in the street, and is held up
as an evidence of our loosely-reSuated
financial system, which leaves it open to
the Secretary of the Treasury to rnanipu-
late the funds of the Federal Government
at will. A local afternoon paper brought
out tbs piece of news under the head:
Treasury Department Won't Accept
State Bonds This was mistaken by
many readers as a reflection upon vtr-
ginia State bonds, and brokers have had
to explain. It should be understood that
the order does not refer particularly ITO
Virginia State bonds. but applies to the
bonds of all states and municipaiit es.

The North Dakota station has taken
up the study Ola suitable rotation for
the wheat farm. Experiments carried
on for six years show that continuous
wheat culture is Improbable, while
wheat in rotation increases in yield
and improves in quality. Three crops
of wheat and one of clover gave in
four years almost as much wheat
and more proftab BILE returns than four
crops of wheat in succession. Little
was gained in rotating wheat with
other cereals. as spring rye, barley and
oats, but wheat after cultivated crop
gave larger percentage of increase
than wheat after summer following,
