Passover (Pesach) is the seven days

exodus from Egypt. In ancient Jewish
life it was the first Of the three pill

rusalem.s Although the passover has

universal spring festival, it is its his

Had this epidemic proved to have been
high in mortality rate, it would have
been at once laid to the poorly vaccin-
ated condition of the country, but as the
mortality rate was extremely low, it is
credited to the protective Influence of
the vaccination dogma. In the L. 5
Army. where there is no question as TO
the infliction OF vaccination, the results
have been vastly different. For the same
period. the death rate was from 81 TO
46 percent
While this proves conclusively that
vaccination does not help to prevent the
disease. It has succeeded in fermenting
the stagnant blood in US and thrown so
much OF it to kindeys, it has paralyzed

During the Franco Prussian war, the
French soldiers being poorly vaccinated;
lost 23.469 by smallpox, and the well
vaccinated German army lost sbut ZSf.
Such a statement seems remarkable IN
view of the fact that there is absolutely
no ground for it.. The war offices OF
both France and Germany are on record
with statements that there was abso-
lsItely no record kept of the soldiers lost
BY. smallpox. Yet these authors have the
number to the man, and wholly ignore
the facts of which there are records,
that during this same war, well vaccln-

poorly vaccinated France lost but

Review of Some of the Principal
Epidemics.

Montreal. Canada, has been accused OF
having her epidemic in 1885 because the
larger part OF the population refused TO
be vaccinated- In a population with
tgenty 70 twentv-fiv percent vaccin-
aeed. of the total death list of 3177,
14e0 occurred in the faithful who rarely
die. 1777 were vaccinated. At this rate,
had The whole population been victims
of vaccination, the death list would have
been six or seven thousand.
In England when the vendors Of
Jennerism found it expedient to follow
the example of Germany in order to
facilitate their work, secured the pas
sage of a compulsory act in 1858 Fol
lowing this. for time, vaccination was
very successful financially. Just about
the time when the people were well vac
ciDated and highly protected, the coun-
try was visited by an epidemic in 1851
$3.50. with 14,244 deaths. Again in
1868 4-65, 20,059 died of smallpox. This
was the stimulus for a more rigid law,
with penalty of imprisonment and fines
for refusing to be vaccinated- Again in
1S71-72 smallpox swept away 44,S40.
These three epidemics amopnted to
1913 deaths However, this was not
all, for during the period from 1853 to
1873 the deaths in "off years" brought
the total to 103-973.
