MOTHS 4lDlNc IN THE PLUSH

The conference of the state and
provincial boards of health in
Washington the other day de-
clared in strong terms against the
plush upholstering of railroad
coaches. The plush, according to
the conference, harbors disease
germs and is a source of infection.
1t is very remarkable thing why
the railroads adhere to the stuffy,
uncomfortable plush for their up
holstering. There isn't a single
consideration to recommend it. 1t
is not needed for warmth in win
ter, because the coaches are in.
variaby heated, and, often to the
point of suffocation. And it is an
abomination in summer, when it
parboils the luckless passenger
who must sit upon it for a greater
or less length of time.

The TREATMENT FOR TYPHOID

At this season, when typhoid
fever is most prevalent, the opin-
ioh of one who watched the prog
ress of the disease last year in a
city where hundred cases pre-
vailed, is of interest. This writer
sums up his experience by endors-
ing the old time treatment. His
recollection is that the physicians
in the old days gave very little
medicine, and depended on time
and careful nursing to bring the
patients through. 1t was consid-
cred that the disease had to run
its course and the physicians did
not dope their patients to death.
This physician, or nurse, be-
lieves that the typhoid patient
needs little medicine, no food, all
the water they desire and absolute
rest. He has noticed that those
patients who were stuffed with
milk, milk toddY, soups and other
things to keep the strength up
were generally the ones that suf-
fered with hemorrhages from the
bowels. When the fever is high
and constant it is impossible for
digestion to take place.
Instead of food nourishing the
body and keeping up the strength
under such conditions, it has a
weakening effect. The milk, the
usual food prescribed in these
eases, is coagulated in the stomach
and passes through the bowels in
a fermenting condition and causes
alterations.
The writer is summing up re-
suits after observing the treatment
of this type of fever for years.
The patient has no desire for food
and should have none. OF course
he will lose flesh and grow weaker,
but he viii not fail in strength as
fast without food as he will with
it, when it cannot be digested and
assimilated. Sleeping pOtions, too,
should not be administered, for
sleep under such conditions may
be relief to the nurses but not to
the patient. After the fever is
broken up, or run its course, the
patient will have keen appetite
for food.
Then it will do good, and not
until that time.

LESS MONEY FOR THE AGENT

In his speech at the banquet
given by the Life Underwriters
Association of New York on Tues
day night last, at Hotel Savoy,
New York, Charles E. Hughes,
who conducted the investigation
of the life insurance companies of
New York under the direction of
the Legislative Committee of that
state, told the insurance agents
that, in future, they would have
to be satisfied with less pay for
their services-at least, he init
mated that such would be the case.
He said, among other things,
that the policy holders demand
and insist upon economical. man
agement, and he told the agents
that the cost of obtaining new
bushes would have to be meas
ured by what could be reasonably
expended for that purpose. That,
he said, was one of the reforms
that had been agreed upon, and
in his opinion, had come to stay.
There is no doubt, of course,
that the life insurance companies,
before the investigation, were pay
ing more than they could afford to
for new business. There was the
fiercest kind of competition be-
tween them. Each of the great
companies tried to write more
business than its competitor each
year. The writing of an immense
amount of business was regarded
as an advertisement.
According to Mr.. Hughes, there
is to be change. No doubt agents
will be well paid for their services,
but not the liberal commissions
they once did.
Perhaps the compensation of the
soliciting agents-the great army
of men who make from 81, 900 to
$4,000 year-will not be ma
terially cut down, but the men
who have been getting all the way
from SO, 1000 to $50, 900 and $780,
600 year will not enjoy such in
comes in future unless they do a
great deal more business than they
did before the recent life insur.
ance troubles.
There, is no doubt, however,
that good solicitors and first class
agents will always be in demand,
and, that, too, at salaries and
commissions that will beattractive
| OF course, what Mr.. Hughes
said applied only to the mpanies
chartered under the laws of New
York, but no doubt the companies
of that state, being the largest in
the country, will have a very de.
cided influence upon the compan-
les of other states. In future, pol
icy holders are going to get more
for their money, is the view Mr.
| Hughes takes Of the life insurance
situation. Savannah News.
