CHARGE v ATER
MIGRANTS ARE
Dummies

Dummy" hydrants would appear to
be something the board OF fire under
writer's might feel impelled to take
into serious consideration. A state
ment that such false pretenses OF
fire protection were in existence was
made at a meeting of the kapahulu
Improvement Club yesterday. It was
alleged that a number of hydrants dis
tributed along the roads of Kapahulu
and Kaimuh were only dummy
contraptions, not connected up with
the water mains at all, and therefore
CT no more use than wooden guns in
warfare. ....
The matter was ordered called to
the attention of the public works de-
partment, in connection with COM
plant of lack of water pressure in
parts of the district. Another report
was made, which if proved true, will
amount to an official scandal, to the
effect that an employe Of the water
works had manipulated the gates in
the main so that residents of par
ticular quarter were deprived of their
due allowance of water in order that
he should have a strong pressure up
On his own premises. ~.
Still another complaint related to
outrageous conduct on the part of
drivers of delivery wagons for city
firms, IN smashing road lamps with
their whips. One case was mentioned
where q woman saw the driver for
enc of the biggest houses in the city
deliberately breaking one of the
bulbs. She complained at the office
of the firm, but all the satisfaction
she obtained was to be told it could
not be so, as the drivers were not al
lowed to carry whips. The club re-
solved its members into vigilance
committee for the purpose of catch
ing such vandals and having them
prosecuted. " .@@.
Other business before the meeting
related to the Kapahulu road widen
ening propositions, and the obtaining
of lights for the Kapahulu road. W.
M. Bush, president, was in the chair.
The meeting adjourned to April Goth,
at the same place. the residence of

CoDEIN AND DIABETES

Jambul, Codein and Fulton's Diabet-
ic Compound are known to reduce SUI
gar in diabetes.
Why Jambul should reduce sugar in
diabetes is not clear, but it is not cur
alive and Is little used.
Why Codein, which is largely used,
reduces sugar in diabetes is known.
The opium in it locks up the secre-
tons, including the sugar. But 1t too
is not a specific and the patients do
not recover. .@.
Fulton's Diabetic Compound, the
only one of the three agents whose re-
suits we have known to be permanent,
gets it's results by reducing Hepatic
degeneration, thus enabling the liver
to oxidize more sugar and starch and
the system to assimilate it. Il
The patients reporting recoveries
are, without single exception so far
as we know, on Fulton's Diabetic
Compound We never heard of case
recovering under Jambul or Codein.
In view of these plain facts how can
there be a question in the mind of
anyone who has diabetes, as to what
his treatment should be?
If you have diabetes and are of mid
die age or over you owe it to yourself
and family to try FultOn's Diabetic
Compound before giving up. .

to man. But about the same time Professor Chante-
messe of the Academy of Medicine in Paris, and Dr.
Vidal, originator of the famous "Widal reaction,

they succumbed to heat very readily
Three four injections of this sterile solution
ferred immunity against typhoid fever among animals,
and thus it was perfectly safe to use the human
animal.
So, in 1896, Pfefer and Kolle immunized two men
with the vaccine, and investigated the changes in the
blood with characteristic German thoroughness.
A FEW weeks later Sir A. E. Wright, of the medical
corps of the British army, began series of studies

and the following year published the results of his
perences with eighteen cases. which results were so
conclusive and practical that the process thought
worthy of adoption in the army
And it that prophylactic, preventive, in
oculaton introduced into the British India

Wright used cultures broth which had been ncubated

And strangely enough, all knowledge of the SUBJ

the business of soldier is to fight and be killed. posi-
bly,; but it ism his business to be killed before he has
chance to fight And typhoid kills soldiers than
all the machinery combined.
Because of this Major Russell, NJ. d. U. S. A. after
lying the result of preventive typhoid incubation
in foreign armies, introduced it among troops As
consequence within the last five years the typhoid rate
has fallen to less than onetenth. In 1912 there
only fifteen cases among ftyseven thousand troops.
More striking STILL among the twelve thousand six hun
dred and forty-four vaccnated the Mexican
border only of typhoid developed and deaths;
while in the neghborng city of Galveston the disease
rife. During the period there occurred in the
remainder of the army four hundred and eighteen cases,
with thrty-two deaths. The rate to the thousand
among the vaccinated 49, while among the unvac-
cinated it was almost ten times as high
Compare these results with the grisly records of the
Spanish War; when, among ten thousand FIVE hundred
unvaccinated troops at Jacksonville, Florida, who
cured their water from much purer source than the
Texas troops,-Vis, from artesian wells,-there
twenty mine hundred and ninety of typhoid and
hundred and forty-eight deaths.
THIS conquest of typhoid may well be considered
one of the most brilliant achievements in the an
mails of medical progress and it has about within
hc memory of mere youths. Like many other great
medical discoveries it bears the stamp of "NIade in

it is losing its grim place as

Typhoid germs are at last

their value to such an ex-

the human system they
render the premises un-

Within a few years, if the

FIGHTS RETURN

A. D. Walk Fears Changing
Sentence if Convicted of
ForgerieS in Atlanta.

If the governor of Michigan decides that
a. p. Walk, recently arrested in Detroit
for alleged Atlanta forgeries must stand
trial in this city, Walk win come here
alone to face the music
He is now under bond, pending the de-
cision Of the governor, and informed De-
tectiVe John Black, who has just returned
from Detroit, that he would not put the
prosecution to the extra expense OF send
ing an officer back to Detroit IN the event
the decision is adverse TO him.
I'm come straight to Atlanta and take
my medicine said the accused man.
Detective Black remained in Detroit
more than a week, expecting to bring
Walk back, but, owing to the long delay,
came home without him.
Walk, who now holds responsible in
surance position and who only recently
was welded to a popular Detroit girl, is
fighting the effort to bring him to At
lanta, through the fear OF one thing--the
Chaingang. Detective Black said Wall,
was perfectly willing to return II given
the assurance that he would be permitted
to settle the alleged forgeries and escape
with a fine.
Because Of his business and social po-
sition, he has a horror of having to don
stripes said the detective.
No assurance that he would be saved
from the changing was given him.
