December Estimated) :.

Medicine is, of course, advancing,
and the diagnosis of disease is now
more accurate than formerly. On this
account. mild cases of typhoid are now
discovered, which probably would have
been classed as malaria or con
tinued intestinal Indigestion some
years ago. This more accurate dag

the laboratory. When 1t is dlslred 10

tory worker wants. 1t is by blood ex-
animation that we frequently discover
a case of sickness to be typhoid, when
otherwise the presence of this disease
would never have been suspected
The diagnosis and cure of typhoid is
very interesting, but the disease is real

Pneumonia.
Pneumonia is plague second only
TO consumption. In the first eleven
months of 1905 it killed 3246 and IN
the same period in 1906 it killed 3,d32.
IT is a disease of the respiratory or
cams and is caused by certain germ

for it's consideration a model health
law. Among other provisions the pro-
posed bill provides that health officers
shall be informed in hygiene and SAM
tary science, shall be paid according
to the number of people they serve,
and the term of office is changed from
one year to four years. At present,
serving for short period for a pit
lance, some health officers are not en-
thusiastic, many saying-'if people
don't care about their health, IL they
don't care to have their children pro-
tected against diseases as appears
from the pay they offer, why should
we be deeply concerned?' This is
very natural argument, not strong per.
haps. but it presents condition, not
a theory 1t is good men, not laws
alone, which bring good results, but
the laws must provide for the choos-
ing of good men. The bill also pro-
yides that health officers shall keep
complete records of their work and
make prompt reports and Furnishes
them if they do not. The bill makes
it possible to collect correct RECORDS
of deaths. births and contagious Ill
seases. This is most important; more
important in fact than collecting sta
tistics about the number and value OF
hogs, cattle etc, which We are SO
eager to do In order to hight the
enemy disease, the sanitary authori-
ties must know who are dying, where
diving and the cause of death. 1his
information uncovers the enemy and
permits of intelligent action. But
this is not all, as such records are
of great Importance, and are constan-
tly needed, to prove inheritance, pen
sions. insurance and other property
affairs. So the bill is greatly needed
and if not passed, the people must con
tinue to suffer in several ways whicn
the bill would certainly prevent.
The Outlook for 1907.
The outlook is bright. AS shown
we are making progress. Most people
now understand that disease can DC
prevented and it remains to INSTRUCT
them in the details and to secure the
legislatures permission to carry on
the war in a more scientific up-to-date
way.

too much bad air lowers the resistance
of the body and gives opportunity Tor

is weakness and lack of resistance
which enables the disease TO attack
babies and old persons. There is no

very i'll and many die, are quite al
ways preceded by an epidemic, or at
least few cases of mild diphther1a
In other words, if one or more pro
nounced cases of diphtheria appear
in neighborhood, you may be very
certain that some children have had
it, SO mildly perhaps as to be called
a simple cold These mild cases are
largely responsible for the spread OF
the disease, for the severe cases are
quickly discovered and isolated In
one school district in the state, there
was an outbreak of diphtheria follow
ed by dismissal of the school and dis
infection. The disease broke out again
upon reopening the school and it was
again dismissed and disinfected. 1t
then broke out third time, three
children in all dying. After the third
outbreak, the neighborhood had about
concluded that dismissing schools and
disinfecting were hNnbugs so far as
checking disease was concerned
They were not useless measures but
had very probably checked the dis
ease to some degree if they did not
completely stop it. The source OF the
infection was discovered through the
State Laboratory and would
have been discovered at the
time of the third dismissal,
if the local officers had only
informed the State Board. The meth
cd was to visit the school and take a
drop of mucus from the throat OF
every one in the school room lnclud-
/ ing the teacher, and examine it under
the microscope. The germs were
found in the teachers throat and she
| had evidently been the source of the
disease all the time. She seemingly
/ had only a slight sore throat, for
which she had taken lOZengeS and
| cough medicine and still the whole
! time she was spreading diphtherla
/ After she was taken out of school ana
| treated until the germs disappeared.
| the school was called togather again
and there was no more diphtheria.
We have three good lessons In TINS
epidemic. The first is that mild cases
are very dangerous; the second. that
| the only positive diagnosis can be
made in the Laboratory; and the third'
| that it is possible to discover and keep
down diphtheria by always examining
| every sore throat by the laboratory
method We might also perceive a
| fourth lesson and it is, that the Sc
| cretionS from the nose and mouth,
which we so freely distribute in every
direction, are very dangerous. Inc
| tie cher in this instance distributed her
germs on the states of the little chill
/ dren. for she erased their errors with
i her spittle.
Typhoid Fever.
This disease is growing less fatal
but, like diphtheria, not lessening in
prevalence Although our population
is increasing, typhoid deaths decrease
This appears by examining the follow
ing table, and we think two causes
I contribute to the decrease. First
more skillful treatment; second, the
work of the health department in in
structing the people how to fight the
/ disease.

of November and December. Like diph-
