TYPHOID FEVER.
Sources Of This Dangerous and Pre-
tracted Disease.

tractod Disease.
Although there Is always more or
less typhoid fever In most of the larger
cities Of this country. the late summer
and autumn are the seasons when 1t Is
most to be feared.
The disease is not 80 formidable, as
regards the mortality. as some others,
but Its great length and the evil conse-
quences which sometimes follow 1t In
the form OF weak heart, weak spine or
nervous disorders make 1t quite as Sc.
rious as some which are more fatal but
far less protracted.
Unless one knows how the disease is
usually spread one cannot hope to
avoid II, and so II may be useful to
consider In what ways the germs Of
the malady find their way into the sys-
tenn.
Water Is the usual vehicle for ty-
phoid germs, as Is well known, and
probably oil great outbreaks of the dis
ease In cities are due to an infected
water supply. This has been strikingly
shown In Philadelphia, where some
parts Of the city are supplied with fl
tered water and others with unfiltered
Of the city in which the conditions, ex-
cept as to water supply, are almost the
same, 1t was found that In the one sup
piled with filtered water the occurrence
rate Of typhoid fever was one In FIVE
thousand, while In the others, In which
the unflltered water was drunk, 1t was
one In sixteen hundred.
But city with an ideal water sup
ply may be scourged with typhoid
fever, although less severely, through
the medium Of impure Ice, and 1t Is al
most as important to know where the
Ice Is cut, or with what water II is
made, II artificial, as where the city
water comes from. Not long since n
number Of officers on one Of the United
States ships in the Mediterranean
squadron were taken down with ty-
phoid fever. When the source Of the
Infection was traced 1t was found to be
some ice bought at Athens, the Ice ma
chine on shipboard having broken
down.
Another source of Infection Is found
In oysters that have been fattened In
streams contaminated with sewage.
Not only has typhoid followed the eat
Ing Of these fish. but the typhoid bacilli
have been found In the stomachs Of the
oysters.
Raw vegetables used for salads may
have been grown In soil contaminated
with slops used as fertilizers or may
have been washed In infected water.
Unless a water supply Is above sus-
picion all that used for drinking. tooth

boiled and the drinking water cooled
