CHOLERA INFANTUM
 DOING DEADLY WORK

Cholera infantum. the dreaded mal- ady that robs so many families of the little ones during the warm weather, is doing it's deadly work and people who do not want to see the white hearse at their doors cannot be too prompt in calling in the family physi- elan when they notice the presence Of the disease. To be sure. no matter how much folks do. children will fall victims to this sickness, but it is consolation to their parents to know that they did their best to cope with 1t instead of letting it run until the sufferer had gone beyond medical aid. A doctor who has a big practice said to-day that great deal de- pended in keeping them cool and hav- inp a sharp lookout for what they eat and drink He would not give them any more than was necessary to sus- tain life while the thermometer is up in the nineties and was willing to stake his reputation as physician that none of them would die of hun ger.
