Decrease Of
Contagious Disease

Unprecedented decreases in COM
municable diseases in Pennsylvania
were reported by Health Commits
sioner Dixon last week for the month
of June. Typhoid, scarlet fever and
measles show the biggest decreases.
Whooping cough alone seems to in
crease. What makes the showing all
the more remarkable, in the Commis-
sioners opinion, is the nearer COM
plete than ever reports received from
all parts of the State.
Speaking of the work, Dr. Dixon
said:
1.-The people of Pennsylvania will
be gratified when they hear that with
their cooperation the list of COM
municable diseases for the month of
June is the lowest experienced
throughout the State for several
years, total of 1856 cases being
reported, a decrease of 5,162 as COM
pared with the month of May and a
decrease of 1854 and 1882 as com
pared with the months of June, 1910
and 1909, respectively.
This decrease is even more re-
markable than appears on its face
from the fact that reports for the
present year cover practically every
city, borough and township in the
State.
"The government work, notwith-
standing these gratifying results, is
criticised by those who have been
punished for the violation of our
laws governing these sanitary condi-
tions of our commonwealth. Fortu-
nately, the new Medical Bureau of
Pennsylvania can consider the moral
character of man before granting a
license to practice medicine and that
same bureau can revoke medical IL
censes when the holders of the same
are guilty of malpractice.
The splendid health law formu-
lated by DR.. Charles B. Penrose and
passed by the Legislature of 1905 is
beginning to show a reduction in the
great total of communicable diseases.
The special diseases showing marked
decreases are scarlet fever and meas
les, the latter of which has been
heretofore looked upon by those in
care of children as being harmless,
Notwithstanding it was so deadly, as
shown by the report of the new Bu-
reau of Statistics.
Typhoid Fever.
Typhoid fever, a disease which
should be eXterminated, remains low
er than for previous years, and the
only disease showing a tendency to
increase is whooping cough, of which
disease the State Department, even
with the help of all the newspapers
in the State, has not been able to
awaken the people to the enormity OF
the death rate and to it's power to
leave in it's wake tuberculosis and
other Affections.
The decrease in communicable
diseases is not confined to cities
boroughs or townships, but is gen.
eral all over the 5000 square miles
of territory in the State.
The enforcement of the sanitary
laws only partly accounts for the
marked improvement in health; edu-
cation of our people and their co.
operation with the State and with
municipalities which are working
shoulder to shoulder with the State
Department of Health play their part

The washing Of linen fabrics with
out injuring them is not 30 easy as
some people think. To get the soap
suds properly into the goods some Wig
orous rubbing is required, and whether
a brush or only the hands are used
there is apt to be damage. A French
man has designed little apparatus
that is said to solve the problem ad-
mirably. This is pair of grooved
wooden rollers set into a metal frame.
with a handle at the top. The linen
Is first thoroughly soaked in soapy
water and is then placed on an in
clined board. The washer is then roll
ed over the fabric, with not too much
pressure, but just enough to work the
soapsuds into the goods. This op-
grafton distributes the pressure even
ly and smoothly and prevents undue
strain on any one part of the fabric.

How to Take Care of the
Baby

The hot weather of this season of
the year is extremely dangerous to
the lives of infants and young chill
dren, not only because of the de-
pressing effects of high atmospheric
temperature in general but more es-
pecially because of the effect of hot
weather upon all perishable articles
of food, among which cows milk
holds the first place.
1t is therefore highly important
that cows milk to be used for in
fants' food should be of the purest
and freshest that you can afford to
buy. During the hot weather ice is
absolutely necessary for the preser-
walton of milk, and all milk used for
food should be cooled by ice as soon
as 1t comes from the COW and should
be kept next to the ice until ready
to be used. A little money spent for
ice may prevent illness and it's much
greater expense for medicine, nurs-
ing and medical attendance. AS wa
ter is often a carrier of disease it is
safest to use only boiled water for
drinking or the preparation of a
baby's food.
The following rules will aid you in
keeping your baby well during the
hot weather:
Breast Feeding. Every mother
should endeavor to nurse her baby.
Breast milk is the natural food of the
new born baby. There is no other
food that can compare with it. A
breast fed has a much greater
chance of living than a bottle fed
baby.
Immediately after birth do not
give any kind of artificial food to
the baby, while waiting for the
breastmilk to come. Put the baby
to the breast every four hours and
give nothing else but water that has
been boiled. The baby needs moth
ing else and will not starve. After
the milk comes into the breast nurse
the baby every two hours during the
day and two or three times at night.
Don't nurse the baby whenever he
cries, moderate amount of CRYING
helps to develop the lungs. Babies
who are nursed irregularly, or when
ever they cry are likely to get indi-
gestion and then cry the harder
from pain. Nurse regularly and the
baby will soon learn to expect its
nursing only at the proper intervals.
Give the baby little boiled water
several times day.
After the baby is two months old
lengthen the time between feeding to
2 " or 3 hours, with only one or two
feelings at night.
Do not wean the baby as long as
he is gaining and never do so except
by advice of your doctor. Do not
follow the advice of friends or neigh
bors about weaving. If the baby re-
mains we'll but after a time stops
gaining in weight, do not think that
your milk is of no value, but consult
your doctor about adding one or
two bottles to help you out.
Never let the baby nurse from the
remains OF bottle which he has not
finished at once. Take it away from
