LEMON JUICE AND TYPHOID.

THERE IS A VAST DEAL Of interest
1 just now in the discovery which is
alleged to have been made by a Lon
don scientist, backed up by expert
ments made in Chicago. that lemon
Juice viii absolutely destroy the germ
of typhoid fever Reports regarding
the matter are, unfortunately. conflict
ing. What was stated as a positive
fact one morning was denied Just as
positively the next morning. so that.
after all. it is simply q question of faith
in the experimenters.
If it is true that lemon juice will kin
typhoid germs. there is no manner in
which the value of the discovery can be
accurately computed. Every year, in
Salt Lake as in other cities, typhoid
claims it's victims. Here on account Of
the purity of the water supply, which is
generally recognized as the chief pro-
moter of typhoid epidemics, the raw
ages of the disease are not so marked
as elsewhere.
However, il is true that we have
scores of typhoid cases annually. Ev-
cry case means a heavy expense for the
patient. Though a large majority Of
main in bed for weeks while the cost of
doctors and nurses foots up into the
hundreds Of dollars. Too often, in adj
dition to this outlay, funeral expenses
must be met So typhoid has come TO
se recognized as one of the most ex-
pensive of human ailments.
NOW if it is possible for people to
render themselves immune from the
disease by springling a few drops OF
lemon juice into the water they drink,
nobody who neglects this simple pre-
caution is entitled to sympathy If at
tackled by the fever. But whatever may
be said OF the lemon juice preventive
.here is another which is recognized
as absolutely safe. This is in drinking
only water that mas been. boiled.
objection is often made to boiled
water. not on the ground that it ha.
not been rendered harmless, but be
cause the taste of boiled water is OBJ
nexious. People have an idea tha
boiled water is fiat" that its nutritiv,
value Is destroyed as well as its powei
to produce disease. The idea is entireIl
erroneous.
water. n boiled in a thoroughly cieal
vessel and Kept in vessels that ar
thoroughly clean. is Just as palatabl
as water that has not been boiled Nc
fs its rutritive value destroyed. Be
sides. the fact that water after boil
ing may not. taste as good as befor
boiling. constitutes a rather childisl
argument when the Immunity derive
from boiled water is taken into consid
Grafton.

RoLAPP's PUBLIC SERVICE


! UDGE ROLAPP Of ogden is entitled
J to the thanks of every good. citizen
for the sentence imposed By him on
William Brown. convicted Of murder in
the second degree. Brown must serve
term of forty years in the state pris-
on. BY good behavior ne viii be re-
leased at the end OF about twenty
years but for that period, at least, the
community is safe from the depreda-
tons of a murderous scoundreL
Brown and ascompanion held up and
murdered an inoffensive Chinese resi-
dent Of Ogden. The evidence showed
that the defendants companion, who
escaped from the Ogden jail and is
still at large. actually fired the fatal
shot. but. in the eyes of the law. Brown
was equally guilty with him of muir
der. Through some chain of reasoning
known only to themselves, the Jurors
who tried Brown found him guilty of
murder in the second degree. and &C
eompanied that light finding with a
recommendation of mercy.
Judge ROlapp very properly declined
to consider this recommendation. In
sentencing Brown 10 term Of forty
years ne has performed a distinct pub
lie service. Human life is held all toe
cheaply in Utah and the life of Chinese
residents is held in special contempt
Some Of our desperadoes seem TO labor
under the impression that Chinese are
fair game at all times and under al
circumstances. The Celestials are
beaten and abused their property is
destroyed, their lives taken and a large
proportion of the public views the pro-
ceedings with a tolerance as reprehen-
sible as it is surprising.
Chinese residents have just as much
right to live out their humble lives free
from molestation as the proudest citi-
gems in the state. They are entitled t
all the protection that the law can give
them, and The Herald is glad to note
that in Judge Rolapp Utah has at leas
one judge who believes in the let-liv'
theory. Brown may consider himself
lucky that he has escaped with a tern
of forty years. If he had been awarded
his just deserts he would have beer
more severely punished.
