Latin words, 'Hierosoly1na Est Per

people In some of the countries which
he visited, not being acquainted with
the Latin. read and pronounced the in
scription as If one word-Hep. The
followers OF the, Hermit were accus-
toned, whenever an unfortunate Jew
appeared in the streets. to raise the
cry Hep, hep hurra,' to hunt him
down and flesh upon the defenseless

they essayed their temper with the

ANALYSIS Of WATER

State Board Of Health Calls TO
Sample Of Water Used in
Iowa Cities.

Des Moines, Aug. 21.-IIhe state board
Of health has promulgated a rule that
all corporations furnishing water to the
public must furnish samples of the
water to the state board of health for
chemical analysis some time
August / and November / and at such
other times as the state or local boards
Of health shall demand. The board
rules that the fee of $40 for the analysis
OF the water must be paid by the cor
poration n that the rule shall apply
to hotels, restaurants and boarding
houses. Announcement of the rule is
made in the Iowa Health Bulletin is
susd by the board Saturday.
The rule further provides that II 1t
is found that the water ls contaminated
the local board of health shall be not!-
fed n the water company shall at
once be compelled to purify 1t and re-
move the cause of the pollution.
The state board will meet next week.

ton and licensing of graduate nurses

the next day. The board at this meet
ing Will endeavor to complete the pro-
mitigation of new rules in relation to
guarantees and the state health which
was started at the meeting held during
the last of July. 1t is announced that
following the completion of these rules
the board will call all the mayors of
cities and the members of local boards

most unlimited authority in this state
over all questions AFFECTING the public
health. The state law provides that the
state board of health shall have au-
thority to make all rules relating to
the preservation of the health of the
state. But If the local boards fail to
carry out the orders of the state board
1t must step in and enforce them it
self. and the law provides that the
bills shall be turned over to the
county supervisors. but if these super
yisors refuse to pay the bills there is
no means under heaven of compelling
them to do 1t, so while the state board
Of health las blanke authority to do
everything, 1t has no power to en-
force its rules and orders. So the state
board of health would like very much
to have the legislature make things
more specific as to it's powers and
authority. If it is provided tina the
supervisors must pay the bills then the
problem will be solved.
