tions of the person 10 whom the license

SDsakeE Byrd yesterday introduced into
the House a bill amending aud re-eLsct-
ing the far famed Byrd Ii41or bill Of

The important changes Ia The existing
Law "a indicated shove, ere four 10 num-
ber: Frat, 1t provides thst no license to

SOME REASONS FOR IT.

While it is a matter of real concern
that thousands Of small towns are
having their very lifeblood sapped
out by the large increase in catalogue
house business, there are some fea-
lures in the cause of this increase
that It would be we'll il merchants
ard residents of these same small
towns would take into account. One IS
the practice Of the merchant in charg-
ing more than a reasonable profit on
some lines of goods offered tor sale.
This begets the mail order habit.
which doesn't. As a rule. stop with the
articles on which unreasonable prices
have been charged. Another rea son
for the mail order business is that the
home merchant 30 seldom in his adj
vertising anpouncement-if.i indeed. he
has one III the home appearances a
definite and specific price for his
goods. a thing that is invariably done
in the mail order catalogue. Another
feature th,lt is raising hob with more
than one town is that staples offered
for sale in It's stores cost more than
the same goods in adjoining towns.
while the prices paid for live stock
and produce are from 10 to 80 cents
per hundred less. In helping the small
town out Of the dilemma which many
Of them are getting into there is much
that can be done by those whose in
terests are most vitality involved

authorities and sustained the condem-
nation. In each instance the visit of
inspection was made at the request Of
the patrons of the school With the
exception Of AT Pcnnvillc. the people
accepted the ruling of the board.
DIR. Hurry never neslects TO take .
rap at the legislature for what he terms
its foolish parsimcny. He calls at
tcntion To the fact that the state board
of health does not have sufficient
money to carry on its work rs il should
be done. He says vital statistics can
not be collected as they should be be-
cause the board has not enough money
to pay for doing the work. and he holds
that vital statistics are extremely i'm
portant. And yet. he says. the leGis-
lature appropriated SIo.NO to collect
statistics on bugs AID bees. but refused
to give a dollar to further the work u
the health board.

Indianapolis. Ind, Jan. 4.-lndiana
stood still in the matter of births and
deaths during the year 1909. according
to the annual report of DIR. J. n. Hurry
secretary of the state board of health.
which he has just prepared for filing
with the board at it's quarterly meeting
which will be held IN a few days The
birth and death rate was about the
same in 1909 that it was in 1908.
But the report shows that smallpox
which few years ago was the most
dreaded of all diseases in Indiana. has
become less common and that it is no
longer feared by the people. A few
wears ago case or two of smallpox
would throw a community into a panic,
but modern treatment has eliminated
the danger and the people pay little at
tention to the disease nowadays. Dur
ing last year smallpox was reported
every month in the year from some
county, and yet there were but five
deaths from the disease in the twelve
months.
Diphtheria Increase.
Diphtheria increased. however. and
so did typhoid fever. both of which
according to Dr.. Hurry. are much more
dangerous than smallpox Up to No
vember I. there were 200 deaths from
diphtheria. as compared with ISIS in
deaths from typhoid fever. as compar-
ed with SO2 for the previous year.
Rabies has increased wonderfully in
Indiana during the last few years
Since the establishment of the state
laboratory in 1906. the state bacteriolo-
gist has examined the brains of 22l an
imals suspected OF rabies. and in six
ty-twO per cent Of the examinations ra-
bieS were found. The brains affected
were as follows: Dogs. 116: cats. s:
hogs. 5: cattle. I: sheep. l. During
1906 rabies was found principally in
the border counties of the state. such
as Vigo, Parke. Wayne, Allen. ST Jo-
seph. Lake and Porter. From these
counties the disease gradually spread
into the interior counties. until last
year Marion county furnished the
largest number of cases.
Also a Winter Disease.
The old idea that hydrophobia was
a hot weather disease has been dis
proved by the fact that most of the
cases of rabies were discovered in the
winter months. Much live stock has
been lost through rabies. says Dr. Hur-
ty.
The board of health condemned thir-
ty-two public school houses during the
patrons went into court to fight the
condemnation was at Pennville. where
the court decided in favor of the health
