TAINTED MONEY is HARMLESS.

Tainted money. from the viewpoint
OF Warren W. Hilditch. of Yale Uni
yersity, means money with bacteria.
He. used the most soiled money he
| could obtain from railroad, trolley and
theater ticket offices. banks. drug
stores and individuals Some bills
were more worn than others, soft,
cracked and soiled. with frayed edges.
The numbers of bacteria In the bills
ranged from $4,000 to $4,000. with an
average of II bills OF 142. 900 There
seems TO be no connection between the
amount OF dirt and the number OF
bacteria present The cleanest bill he
used had next TO the highest count,
100000 The bin that looked most
soiled had but $4,000, When a bill has
been In circulation for a short time
and has become cracked and its pecu-
liar glaze worn off, the bacteria easily
cling without the presence of dirt
and grease. He inoculated guinea
pigs, but none OF them gave any in
dication of even temporary illness.
Mr.. Hilditch does not believe that
soiled money is dangerous as a trans
mitter OF disease He thinks that
money constitutes an unimportant
factor In the transmission of disease
But he does not regard his exepri-
ments as conclusive. In order to OBJ
tain any conclusive evidence on this
point 1t would be necessary TO make
a careful study OF hundreds or even
thousand bills from hospitals and
private sick rooms, drugstores and
various other sources. A bank teller
said: III one stops to think, money
can't be q common means of trans
mision for ii 1t were there wouldn't
be so many of us alive today; the
escape from sure death OF those
whose duty calls for the constant
handling OF money Is certainly not
merely due to chance. "-Chicago Thi-
hune.
