pNEAD ssFANTILn rAHALYsIs
Is UNDER INVESTIGATION

SACRAMENTO, Oct. 19.-1nfantile
paralysis, which during the past few
weeks has made its appearance stimuli
| taneously in various sections of Cali
| fornia, has been made the subject mat
ter of a bulletin issued by the Califor-
MIA state board of health. This bulle-
| tin takes the form of symposium on
| the disease to the health officers of the
state and urges investigation locally
so that data from field observations
| may be accumulated for the use oc
| the board in the campaign against the
| disease which is being planned.
The publication represents the very
latest information known on the dis
ease, prescribes the most effective
means now known for preventing it's
spread and advocates constant watch
to keep children from attacks of flies
and insects and the destruction of
| breeding places of the biting or sta
BILE fly, which recently has been closely
identified as an agent in spreading the
disease.
Answers to kilograms sent to DR.
FL. xnor of the Rockefeller institute
for medical research and to DIR. NJ. j.
Rosenau of Harvard university by the
state board indicate that it is agreed
among the eminent investigators that
the stable fly is responsible to a large
extent for epidemics of infantile paral-
ysis. Secretions from the mouth and
nose of affected persons also figure IN
spreading the disease.
Data from Professor Herms of the
state university and DR.. J. A. Sawyer
in charge of the state hygiene labora-
tory, appear in the bulletin. Professor
Herms furnished the following to the
state board: The biting fly lays its
eggs $50 10 70) on decaying vegetable
matter, such old lawn cuttings, horse
manure and other refuse. The larvae
are maggots. very similar to the mag
gotS of the house fly. 1t requires tn e
biting fly-a month to pass from the
egg to the adult winged fly. 1t is a
more robust fly than the ordinary
house fly and has long bayonet-like e
piercing proboscis. It's color is grayi sh
| brown with greenish yellow sheen
| According to Professor Herms the
stable fly is commonly met indoors
eight or ten having been captured in
| a single room during his investiga>
| tions. Children, he asserts, do not
| usually fight flies away as do adults
which leads to the inference that il
| is because of this the disease is more
common among infants and young
children. The germ or virus is filter
| able like the yellow fever germ.
| Moved to drastic action by near cpl
denies of infantile paralysis in several
| sections, the state board is now formI.
| lating plans for preventing further
| spreading. Among the rules which will
be laid down are strict quarantine, fu
mi cation and removal, even, to pes
houses of persons affected with tn,
malady

& CATCHING UP WITH EUROPE !"

Since the days of his youth, some
thirty odd years ago, Samuel Merwin
has been living an active life, one
moment as editor, and the next as
writer of virile fiction. The latest
thing from his pen is The Citadel
one big politically progressive novel of
the year Many years ago Mr.. Merwin
wrote with Henry Kitchell Webster
two novels of wide circulation, The
short Line War" and Calumet X"
Since then he has published number
of works, including The Road to
Frontenac," The Whip Hand" His
Little World" The Road Builders" and
"Drugging a Nation" Mr.. Merwin has
long been associated with Success, of
which he is the editor. He is no Wis
ionary. either, when it comes to writ
ing political fiction. His books are
based upon a comprehensive study of
actual conditions, and his present con-
tribution, entitled Catching Up With
Europe" an invaluable contribution
of facts for the student of party plat
forms.

QUEER SHOPPING CUSTOMS.
Travellers in Far East Marvel Mt
Strange Sights in Markets.

Strange Sights in Markets.
Americans who travel in the Far East
sxclaim with wonder over strange sights
seen in the streets of Oriental cities
How odd" they cry; how extraor-
iinary!" They almost never realize that
American streets are Of sights quite as
strange, very perplexing, sometimes
shocking, when first seen by the eyes of
= man or woman Of the Orient, W. ties
Leon Medem, in McCaH's Magazine
Shall confess that one of the ANAL
ing things observed by an Eastern
traveller in any large American town is
the way in WhI Ii the women, great
numbers Of women of all ages, throng
the sidewalks of business streets and
crowd the retail shops? To a Persian,
at least, the sight is as novel as a regi-
ment Of women soldiers would be drill
ing on a military parade ground.
How shall I expIaIa?
In my home country, Persia, there are,
indeed, servants and very poor women
who go personally ID the bazaars and
shops to buy food supplies and clothing,
but they are not the women who have
what We call position in society, any
more than have the women who scrub
the floors Of American ONCE buildings
and railway stations. The wife or daugh-
ter Of any respectable Persian man
would no more think of visiting a gro
GERS shop or the shop of a butcher than
a weIl-bred American woman would
think Of pushing open the doors Of
drinking shop-what you call a cafe
and ordering a gallon Of rum. The pub
lie market is not considered a suitable
place for a lady. The man of the family
does most Of the buying Of meats and
grains, sugar. vegetables and fruit. II
woman is widowed, there is always
some friendly neighbor willing to trans
act such business for her. The neighbor's
wife visits the widow and asks what is
needed. The marketing is done in her
oehalt, ana she is not obliged to come
down to the level Of a poor servant sent
on humtliating errands.
Some Persian ladies, however do not
mind admitting a grown-up Jewish
merchant to their apartments, their
prejudices against the Hebrew race being.
50 strong that they actually do not count
a Jew as being a man at all! Prejudice
is guide that sometimes leads people
% astonishing conclusions,
