which occurred at a. highway crossing

and rushed u IN the highway and
waved the lanterns frsntically. but
the driver OF the wagon paid no at

testimony was clear and positive and

The railroad got a verdict. something
unusual, but all based ON the darky's

TYPHOID AND SANITATION.

! because they prefer liberty to do as
! they please 10 life and health? But
sanitation is doing fine things in the
meantime
The American Medical Journal has
made an interesting comparison of
death rates Of fifty cities collected
| from 1906 10 1910. with similar col
lection covering 1911 TO 1913. The last
named was what doctors can "A "ty-

most impcrccptible change from 1912

actual deaths increased only forty-fve
In the fifty cities, and the number in a
hundred thousand diminished two hum
dredths
The seven-year period covered was
In all these cities one Of the vigorous
sanitary campaigning directed mainly
against water and milk. The average
death rate fell least i'm New York. be-
cause il was smallest at the begin
ming in 1906, owing To the purity of
Croton water; but in 1913. the typhoid
year, when it was rising a bit in most
other cities, il fell two per hundred
thousand because of resolute local
campaign for pure milk.
The average death rate fell most
from the first To the second period i'm
cities that had established pure water
piants-from az to 16 per hundred
thousand in Philadelphia. from "a to
ls i'm Pittsburgh, from 81 to II i'm Min
neapolis, and so on. The small rise
from the average Of the last period TO
1913 was greatest in cities Of raw
river or lake water-11 to 10 in Cleve-
land, 20 To "a in Detroit Fl to % in Al
bany where an epidemic followed the
flooding of a filtration plant.
In every one of the fifty cities, the
death rate rises or falls like mercury

ton of water and milk.
