After dinner George and his employer
had business to talk over in the Ii

Most typhoid patients die from sim
pie exhaustion and heart failure. Some
times it is a rupture of the bowel or
acute poisoning which carries them
off. but the exhaustion Of the vitality
is the more frequent and direct cause
Of death. Naturally the earlier the
physician can determine absolutely the
presence Of typhoid the better He
can then bend all his energies to keep
ing UP the strength and vitality of his
patient, and if he succeeds nature is
likely to cast out the poison herself.
