CARE OF VACATIONISTS.

A THOUGH it is rather late in the vacation
n season the health department officers in va
rious cities warning those who go away for
rest pleasure 10 be careful Of the water they
drink lest they should suffer from typhoid fever
on their return home
1t is pointed out that change of water often
causes harm. Persons who arc used TO water
slightly contaminated may not suffer, but such
water would be very detrimental to persons not
accustomed TO even slightly contaminated water
and typhoid is liable 10 seize them
The Superintendent OF the Hartford Conn,
Health Board believes that rs per cent. of all ty-
phoid cases that develop in cities during the au-
tumn months are due TO water drunk by vacation
lists in other places than their homes.
Health authorities declare that the vacationists
should make careful inquiry of the sanitary ar
rangements of the resort or hotel or boarding
house they intend TO stay in. Many persons be-
come i'll after vacations which are supposed to
build up their health, and such illness is due to
improper food, or inferior food and bad drinking
water.

Perhaps he may be convinced by comment
from one of the Wilkesbarre, Pa, newspapers the
Record. 1t says that the comparatively small
death rate among infants in that city this sum-
mer is cause for sincere congratulation.
The Wkesbarre newspaper attributes this very
satisfactory state of affairs TO popular education
and to the energy of private and municipal organ
izations Since the prohibition of the use of pre-
servatives in milk and the inspection of dairies,
a vast improvement has been noted, says the Re-
cord, which continues: III is only few years since
an embalming fluid formaldehyde and other high
ly poisonous chemicals we're largely used by deal
ers Now the milk must not only be free of poi
sons but it must be up to a certain standard of
quality"
And before these regulations in force in
Wilkesbarre, doubt the milk dealers resented
the interference by authorities on the ground that
the milk dealers knew their business better than
cranks, who we're demanding milk that would not
poison them.

THE MENAGERIE.

BY Upton Sinclair.
Oh come ye lords and ladies Of the
realm,
Come from your couches soft, your
perfumed halls;
Come watch with me throughout the
weary hours.
Here are the sounds that thrill your
jaded nerves,
Such as cave men, your forefathers
heard,
Crouching in forests in primeval
nights.
Here tier on tier in steel barred
cages pent
The beasts ye breed and hunt
throughout the world
Hark to that snore-some beast that
slumbers deep!
Hark to that roar-some beast that
dreams of blood
Hark to that moan--some beast that
wakes and weepsl
And there is sudden stiffness, mark
the sound
Some beast that rssps his vermin-
haunted hidel
oh come ye lords and ladies OF the
realm.
Come keep watch with me-this show
is yours.
Behold the source of all your Joy and
pride.
These beasts ye harness fast and set
to draw
The chariots OF your pageantry and
pomp.
It is their blood ye shed TO make
your feasts.
1t is their treadmill that moves all
your world.
Oh come ye lords and ladies, keeI
the watch,
Come sit and think how il will be
with you
When God shall send his flaming
angel down
And break these bars-so hath He
done of yore,
So doeth He to lords and ladies
grand
Who feed upon the blood Of other
men
And loose these beasts to raven in
your streets!
