have already shown that 1t was well
spent And for this one reason. II no
other. the movement has enabled med
.Ical science TO demonstrate that ty-

Altogether something like 10000

devise we're strictly enforced. Result.
3nly one case of typhoid fever has oc-

the troops--perhaps 10000 in all
assembled in the southern states dur
ing the Spanish war. Among these
