THE TYPHOID SITUATION.

WITHOUT the slightest desire 20
W occasion unnecessary alarm, The
Herald wishes to call attention again
10 the Salt Lake City health situation
Eighteen cases of typhoid fever were
reported during the week that ended
Saturday making total OF twenty-five
now being treated in the city. In all
OF August last year only twenty five
cases were reported. In other words
with the month just half gone we have
as many cases this year as we had dur
ing the entire month last year
IL this rate Of increase is continued
the situation may well cause serious
apprehension. It has been shown that
The water supply cannot be blamed for
the existence of typhoid at this time.
a few days ago samples of the water
rom all the sources Of supply were
analysed Not one of them contained
any pathogenic bacteria. That is, not
,ue contained bacteria that are calcu-
lated to cause disease. typhoid or any
,ther kind
a significant feature Of the existing
conditions IS that probably half OF the
Third precinct where water from flow
ing wells is used to the exclusion Of
city water. Il may he that this water
IS causing typhoid. Again. ii may be
harmless. At any rate the city health
,hicer should at once have analyses
IF il made with a view to ascertaining
positively whether or not the water
IS to blame. If it is, the people who
have been using it win know how to
sovern themselves.
But the typhoid is not altogether
onhued 10 given precinct. It is scat
.ered about the city in such a way
hat no precinct is free from it. a
natter that viii doubtless bear careful
scrutiny is the ice supply. Is all the
ce that the people Of salt Lake are
buying pure? Typhoid has often been
raced to impure ice The old theory
hat water purifes itself in the process
of freezing has been demonstrated to
90 fallaciOus. Samples of the ice sold
by every company doing business in
The city should be taken and tested,
and if any should be found impure il
should be condemned Immediately.
The milk supply is usually looked
after very carefully, but the health Of
fcers cannot afford to relax their Wig
iance for "A moment. AS The Herald
has said before. vegetables and fruit
should be thoroughly washed before
they are eaten. and washed in pure
water; all articles OF food should be
kept under screens and in places where
flies and other insects cannot get at
them. and every yard should be kept
clean.
We cannot entirely eliminate typhoid,
but we can. by a reasonable amount OF
diligence. reduce the number OF cases
very materially

understand that they don't look pretty
IN the strained and unnatural position
they are forced to assume when they
are wearing high-heeled shoes they
might send them to the attic where the
hoops and the enormous hustle are
stored. But indeed and in truth the
women are always charming, whether
they wear high heeled shoes or no
shoes at all. and we shall decline to en-
ter into even the semblance Of a quar-
rel with them.

Hiawatha on Boarding Houses.

@-es y oNAee VI DNesA SAAAS LASNSSSs
CAfilwaukee Sentinel)
Not for me-" said Hiawatha
When a friend asked where he boarded
Boarding houses have their boosters.
But your Uncle Hiawatha
Sidesteps them on all occasions.
I don't blame young Percy Piker,
Who receives eight piunkerinOs
Every week for jumping counters
In dry goods institution.
II he wants to take a flyer
At this boarding proposition.
| can't blame these long-haired poets
Who write odes about the seasons
And are dead broke in the springtimc,
Summer. fall. and likewise winter;
Let them stop at boarding houses.
They can't make arrangements elsewhere
But for me? Nay. nay, Paulina
II you want 10 know the reason
For this prejudice, I'll tell YOU.
Years ago. when old Nokomis
Did my sewing and my cooking,
l was very fat and sassy.
Old NckOmis was a hummer;
She could fry fish like a seraph.
she could frame up soups and salads
That would make you fairly chortle;
She could stew the nimble chipmunk
And the rabbit. the Wabasso-
Make them into a bOuillon
Fit to set before monarch
But alas, one frosty morning
In the hazy Indian summer
l. becoming independent.
Made a beef about the butter.
Old NOkOmis lost her temper
Handed me some nouns and prououns,
Chased me from the cosy wigwam
Shouted, Fly your kite forever
Well, I had stack Of wampum,
And decided 10 20 boarding
Made deal for board and lodging
With n SquaW named Puny-Coffcc.
Like a nightmare, I remember
How she called mo in TO dinner
Saying. Here's a hunk Of beefsteak
That Miss Read-the-Yellow-Nov
Couldn't eat, so YOU can have it,
Then lost my head completely,
Seized my tOmahawk and shouted:
That for you, . Puny-Coffeet'
That was Tuesday, and the funeral
Followed. I believe. on Thursday
Then I married Mnnehaha
And my boarding days were over.

sums of money were given him by persons
who believed i'm his work. he was equally
generous in giving 20 others. Both in

Herald is treading upon dangerous
ground, although we must admit that he
has struck "A field that is full of real alb
surdities and that will make almost any
reader become hilarious. Every Monday
morning The Herald publishes a column
OF items CLEANED from its country ex-

commonplace little squiblets that can be

items. viewed from a country publishers

ludicrous headings they actually appear
funny. as witness the following:

Secretary Root discussed with the presi-
